What SMS app are you using? I know Handcent and GoSMS both support this feature (only 2 3rd party apps I've used for SMS).

thanks...new to android...i cant believe they left this out of the stock android.
With "Tasker" and the "Secure Settings" plugin, I have set mine to disable the lockscreen, wake the phone and open straight to the sms app.
THANKS @refthemc, the SMSAWAKE is a simple and usefull app!

Did you enable it in the options?
Are you using any other apps like tasker to override it? Or not enable in your app settings?
Yes i did. Ok so now when i get a email, it blinks. But for text messages it does not still.
What messaging app are you using? It seems like your text notifications aren't on.

Open the messaging app, then click menu, scroll down, and make sure notifications is checked; if not, configure the options.
It will not work with the stock messaging app. Atleast it didn't for me. I used the wimax notifier located in the themes and apps section. Was told it didn't work because it is a port from the sense 2.0. Hence the "z".

Well we just unveiled the secret of that stock messaging app won't activate the led with warm z, so you need to use a 3rd party app, such as handcent for texting.

I have been using this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.everythingandroid.smspopup just have to shut off notifications in the stock app or you will get double notifications.
Havent been on XDA for a while, but I searched for an updated stock messaging app thats been edited to remove the contact photos from every line in a text conversation and havent found anything yet. Just wanted to see if anyone uses another stock version that has the quick reply popup and also sends/receives pictures or if there is another app from the Play store that doesnt eat battery.

Its nice, but it doesnt do the quick reply pop up over the stock lockscreen. Always have to unlock and go to messages to read/reply. Kinda why I want to stick with a modified stock that just gets rid of the stupid contact photos.

It may be good, but I'm always of the mind that if a native app does the trick without issues then why add apps that can misbehave or maybe cause battery drains. If I'm not happy with an app i look for a replacement but not if it works fine. That's just my preference.

Best messaging app on the market hands down. Simply, straight forward, and just the right touch of customization and intuitive UI.

Handcent for me. I have been using it for years. I like the customization by contact. You can have different notifications, fonts, backgrounds, sounds and vibrations for each individual. Very nice to know who texted you with customized notifications. I also like the Oops delay. You can set a lag from when you hit send until it sends.
All these features helps visually, physically and by sound who you are communicating with. Less likely to send the wrong text to the wrong person.

Sadly just using stock because at home I use WIFI calling all the time and stock is the only one that always works, all the time, with wifi calling.
But I do use SMS popup program so I get pop up notifications and a quick reply.

I won't use anything from CM these days. Not after what they did to some developers when they became Cyanogen Inc. They basically stole work of other people and left them out to dry. I used to use nothing but CM now, it's just not for me anymore.
Hangouts
I use hangouts, and love how they integrate SMS and Chats.
I had a question though, is there any way our SMSes can be integrated with Gmail Chats?
i.e. If you chat normally on Hangouts, it shows up in Chat history in my Gmail when I see in the browser.
It will be very convenient to have my SMS show up there as well, can search, copy, paste, archive and backup easily.
Anyone else with same thoughts?
Since Sense 6's native messaging app doesn't have a built in popup notification (like CM, Handcent, Textra, ect), I'm looking for an alternative. Any suggestions? Every third party app I've tried is really outdated, and doesn't mark text as read because Kitkat 4.4 only allows the default messaging app to do that.

I used to cry out for people like HTC and Apple to include popup reply windows for SMS a few years back. Don't really care any more, though this might be because I use Whatsapp more than SMS. That includes a popup quick reply windows though and I never use it. The last one I did use was Chomp but that looks a bit dated now too. Suspect that development of SMS apps is slowing for whatever reason.

I did not see you mention GoSMS. Two popup options: the actual popup box, or a contact icon. Once you click-on the icon, the popup box shows up.

Don't have the M8 yet but I currently use 8SMS on my S3 which does the trick, although i am on CM so I am not sure if it will do the same with Sense. I am hoping it will as I want this feature as well.
8SMS is great in general. Hope it works.
SMS popup app doesn't work? It works perfect for me on 4.4.2 using hangouts.

Try GlowFly I've used it for a while now, never failed me.
It has a few plugins for things like missed calls.
(Can't say it will work on the HTC One (M8), but since I'm looking to get that phone I sure hope it does)
