Are you using the stock messaging app? You could use chompSMS, GOSMS, or Handcent to customize things.

Led color change on stock mms app!

Is there a way to change the led color when you get a new text on the stock text app? Like a flashable script? Or is it compiled in the apk? Or...?

I don't believe there is. You can use a 3rd party messaging app to do this, like: GoSMS, Handcent, ChompSMS, etc.
Just be aware you only have 3 color choices with the Epic's LED. (Blue, Red and Magenta/Purple)

I haven't had much luck with them.

i use handcent and my notification is blue instead of the red/orange..

MIUI style SMS notifications for ICS

Does anyone know if there is something like this out there? I wish there was a built it notification that had a quick reply option without having to replace the stock messaging app. im not a fan of sms pop up from the market.
Any ideas from developers if this is possible? Or if something like this is already out there. I just hate how android currently handles sms notifications, you have to take way too many steps in order to view and reply to the message.
Thanks!

You're going to have to choose a 3rd party SMS app that you like and does what you are looking for.
Its easier to do that than expect someone to custom-make a system app that can replace the SMS app entirely and add your desired functionality.

Try SMS Popup, I've been using it since 2009 when I got my OG droid...indispensable!!

You should try Go sms pro, i think its the best sms app atm on market.

Did you even read the op? He said he doesn't like SMS popup

I had SMS pop up installed on my DroidX and when I got my galaxy nexus it didn't work at first. Once I reinstalled it runs perfectly.

SMS popup does exactly what the OP is asking for. I cannot see why he doesn't like it. It allows quick response, etc...

Popup SMS does something extremely similar. Non-intrusive, doesn't mess with YouTube playback, and has some level of customization.
Give it a look. I love it.

I use handcent . Give it a shot

Hello guys!
I recently installed the official ics rom on my samsung galaxy s2.
I always used on gingerbread SMS GO PRO (I'm a fan of the team go, their apps are always good) but with ics sends two text messages at time.
I write this post because you suggested just the app that I mentioned. It 's a known problem and I can fix it?
The other proposed programs have themes that are close to holo?
Thanks a lot,
Sli

handcent is pretty nice.

Any mod for showing real emoji icons like iOS?

Is there a way to show emoji icon instead of the android plain text?

You can get emoji plugins for GO & Handcent SMS apps.

I wasn't aware instagram had integrated emoji, sounds like you need a keyboard with the functionality then. I don't know of any.

go keyboard has emoji plugin.

Lockscreen message notifications using other apps

Hey guys
Just a quick question, does anyone know of a way to use a sense lockscreen such as productivity and still be able to quick access the message from the lockscreen using a 3rd party app e.g. GO SMS
Thanks in advance

very simple, put your favorite sms icon instead of stock in the bottom of screen. these shortcuts will be visible on lock screen
