I have recently got a Samsung Galaxy phone after having a HTC Legend which the Calendar App on Sense when notifying a calender notification turned on screen so you didn't have to unlock screen to see event description and could dismiss it without more clicks.
So can anyone point me in the direction of how to code a notification App which has a popup on screen regardless if screen is off.
eg similar to handcent.

Hello,
I would like to have the new sms preview in the pop up when my HD2 is locked.
I set it to wake up when I get new sms with bsb tweaks, but the preview doesn't come up, like the calendar reminder, even it wakes up.
It seems that the calendar reminder pop up is shown above the lock screen, instead the sms preview pop up is shown below the lock screen.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot
Use S2U2 in place of the standard lock screen. Loads of options including email and SMS preview.
Coming from HTC EVO to Galaxy S3... I notice that when you end a call on s3 it gives you options to view contact, send message etc... anyway to kill that and have it just hang up? Also, on lock screen, when you get an email or text message, those shortcuts on lock screen don't display the number count on lock screen, they do once unlocked but not lock screen. Any way to get unread count on lock screen? Thirdly, is here a way to select all in the email app? I appreciate all your input and thanks.

i would like to know about getting rid of that phone stuff after a call, but might have to get a different dialer to make it work...
honestly the sense dialer i wish i could have back, and the sense mail client, wonder if someone can make that happen?
I'm using this amazing lock screem notification app called NILS located here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roymam.android.notificationswidget&hl=en
It gives me the exact display I'm looking for in the lock screen. However the Touchwiz missed call and text communication notifications with the big ugly gray box are overriding it which is very irritating! I would much rather just use the NILS application instead of any other widgets.
I tried using lockscreen policy to disable widgets but it will not work. Also checked "disable preview" for text messages but it still shows the notification.
This related to my S4 active, but I'm hoping the S4 is similar in this respect. I get a calendar reminders all day, and I don't dismiss them immediately as I often attend to some of them a bit later.
So for me the LED notification is useful to alert my that a new calendar reminder has gone off, but after I unlock the screen, swipe down the notification bar and select calendar notifications to see the list of notifications, and then lock the screen, I expect the blinking LED to stop, until a new reminder comes along.
Unless I'm losing my memory this has been the case with the S3 and other similar phones I've owned, where if you swipe done and look at the notification then lock the screen, the blinking stops. I tried it with email, and that works, if I just swipe down to see that there's an email notification and without dismissing lock the screen, the blinking stops, so not sure why it doesn't work with the calendar. Any ideas?
I also noticed the blinking is fast for the calendar and slow for gmail, is that on purpose?
Thanks.
1. Is there any way to prevent the screen from turning on when theres a notification from messaging ?
2. The privacy feature when disabled shows your text message on the lock screen ,Turning it off the message details get turned off in the drop down bar as well.
I noticed they added custom notification tones for ringer and messaging in the contacts app so I want to stop using SMS popup but these things are rather annoying.
