IS it possible to set it so screen turns on with text?

[bugler]

... So I am an ex-blackberry user, and I obviously miss a lot of stuff about my blackberry (FB updates) but i'm here for a simple question. Tried to find it in the app store, but was unsuccessful. Uh, is there a setting or app that is similar to BBlight? So when i get a text or a call the screen will turn on? Thanks

Try SMSpopup

Turn on the pop up notifications and it will turn on the screen and show the text when on comes in

same thing with handcent, it will turn on the screen with a new text. you can adjust this in the settings. i would not use the stock messaging app after all the reports i read of texts going to wrong recipients, god forbid!

Really?? Where did you read about the misfiring text messages?? That's crazy.
