Wake on Notifications,

Hey guys
Anyone know an app to wake the screen upon emails and text? I like the sleep mode features but can't tell when people contact me!

Vibrate and Sound notification are not enough?
If I am not mistaken, you can use app called "Missed call".
It could be set to remind you again and again and again.

Is that just calls though? I want calls, emails and text.
If I am not near my phone I may never know ...

Check the app

You do realise that there's a LED light that blinks right?

Yeah, but it doesn't do it for long and rather have a solid light and be able to change the colour .

Changing the Dialer?

Is there a way to mod the dialer so that it's slide to call someone? I'm getting frustrated by the fact that the screen is so sensitive that when I tap a contact by accident, it auto-dials. Is there a way to prevent this? Thanks!

I would love this also

Forgot the name but someone talked about an app in the market that made you hit an extra confirmation whenever you hit dial.

Found! Thanks to donatom. It's titled "Call Confirm."

Receiving Calls

Hi. I am looking for some advice with regards to how I receive calls on my Xperia X10i. Basically, the story goes as follows...normally when I receive a call I have to do that swipe thing to accept the call, however, at very random times instead of the swipe I get the option of pressing 'Accept Call' or 'Decline Call' which are displayed on the lower part of the screen side-by-side. Now, to be perfectly honest I actually prefer the latter option but do not know why it is so random. To be clear, I have never updated my phone since I got it and I have searched the settings but not been able to locate anything which would explain this.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Kind regards
Scott

It's not random u'll get that if the screen is already on.

Unfortunately, you can't. It would appear that this option is only available when your screen is unlocked at the time you receive a call, otherwise you have to swipe to accept the call when the screen is locked.

Hey all,
I'm also looking for the same thing ! ^^

Just download super private conversation.

Not the same. Visitor mode makes it so the visiting user cannot change your phone screen elements + guards against incoming calls and messages. SPC only guards your existing call history and messages, but doesn't prevent calls from coming in.

Anyway to make the phone vibrate for calls when in Do Not Disturb mode?

I'd like the phone to still vibrate so I can determine on a case by case basis whether it's worth picking up. Putting my phone on vibrate isn't a solution, because I still want my priority notifications to sound while keeping others silenced... But phone calls, I want to still be able to feel even when I can hear them.
Is that possible? I was using my phone and didn't even realize I was missing a phone call since DND was on...

Has anybody made an app to put custom vibrations on certain contacts?

I am a v10 user so maybe it is different but you can set priorities for favorite contacts only long press do not disturb mode from notification panel.
Press select priorities, set to favorite

Sorry I realize I misread your post.

I think I'm just going to use a macro to schedule my phone to vibrate instead of using DND mode. Guess I'll just reserve for that for when I'm sleeping rather than when I'm sleeping and working. I don't like the idea that I could so easily miss an important call.
