Text Message Visual Notification Options

[Mark97213]

I may be missing something but I'm wondering if there is a way or an app that will give me a large visual notification when receiving a Text Message.

I came from using the Samsung Rogue, that when a new text message came in, it would give me a large visual notice box on the home screen letting me know I have a new Text and whom it was from, was nice while driving so I wouldn't have to even touch the phone until I was stopped. With this Droid 3, there really is no visual notification aside from the tiny icon on the top bar which, requires physical use and a couple steps to get the visual after hearing the notifcation sound.

Am I missing something with my settings or?

I would suggest you get the app GoSms PRO. It's FREE! All text messages pop up on your homescreen. Also there are plenty of features as well as themes to keep you busy. Hope this helps.
