Wake on default Message App

Hi, is there a way to get the phone to wake when getting a text message or MMS? I miss so many messages when my phone is on vibrate and sitting right next to me on my desk since I cant see it turn on if I get a message.
thanks

Handcent does that, don't know about the stock app.

[Q] Changing Text Message Service Issues

Ok, this is my first Droid phone, so I'm still trying to figure it all out.
My default text message app is driving me crazy. It randomly decides to scroll up and down when it feels like it.
So, I've installed ChompSPS to use as my messaging app. No more random scrolling, so I'm happy.
The problem is, I can't figure out how to disable the default service notification.
I've been through settings -> sounds -> notifications but all I can find is a setting to change my ringtone for everything, and I can't find a general page for notifications.
So, how do I disable the default text message notifications?

i have some friends that used Handcent SMS on different phones and ran into the duplicate notification problem as well. i guess this post doesn't help much since i have no solution to offer, but just so you know, you're not the only one who's had trouble with this.

Go into the stock messaging app settings and turn off notifications there.

Thanks

The solution is often simple, isn't it?
Thanks.

Also, fyi: this is an android phone. Not a Droid phone. Droid is a line of phones in the same since that Galaxy S is a line of phones. Android is the operating system that runs all these phones.
And the other user is correct. Change setting in the OEM messaging app to keep from having duplicate notifications.

Looks like the stock messaging app notification. Disable from settings in the app.

That's the stock sense SMS icon. Did you do a full wipe????

Check your handcent notifications. I think it has an option to use that icon for messages.
Also, when you pull down the notification bar, and select that message, what happens? It should take you to the app causing the notification.

Receiving sms whilst veiwing conversation

Anyone else have this 'problem'?
Whilst viewing an sms conversation, if i receive an sms the notification tone just keeps sounding and there is no way to stop it unless you force close the messaging (or swipe it away in the running programs list)
I use the 'hangout' tone as ususaly it keeps sounding until you pull down notification bar or go into messaging app.
Cheers

That's because hangout is a ringtone and not a notification.

[Q] Notifications don't work with S View

I have recently started using Chomp SMS because I hate the default s5 messaging app, but I have stopped receiving text push notifications on my s view screen. If I switch back to Messaging, they come back. Does this feature really only work on their own apps or is there a work around for this?

You are correct, the sview cover app only supports the default messenger.
