Annoyed that your phone doesn't light up when you receive a text? Just install this nifty little app! This tiny little program runs in the background and awakes your phone for a few seconds to alert you of a new text message.
Completely no frills, no ads, and no annoying pop-ups!
(Pop-ups now optional. Pro version lets you view the text message in native app with 1 click)
Now works with Hangouts, GO SMS, Handcent, and other 3rd party clients! If you are having trouble getting it to work with these clients, try uninstalling and re-installing THAT app (NOT THIS ONE). The way android handles notification priorities is based on which app was installed first. I apologize for the inconvenience, but there is nothing I can do on my end.
If you like the app, download the pro version here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dberm22.SMSWakeUpPro
More pop-up settings, messaging shortcut, no donate message, and a sense of pride for helping out a struggling small-time dev. I am also currently working on getting it to work with email and gchat.
If you have any suggestions for features, feel free to email me at dberm22@gmail.com.

I don't know why Android doesn't come w this feature built in, but I've been using this app for years. A+ works great!

App does what it says but the free version turns me off paying due to the pop ups you have to repeatedly close half a dozen times before you can view the message.

Im planning to purchase it since its exactly what im finding; an app that lights up my phone even in silent. But it keeps deactivating itself whenever i charge my phone or restart. Like screen up time is 9s but when charging or after charging it goes down to a second. Even with the flashing screen option ticked.

So I downloaded this application, and yeah my phone turns on, but i wish it would just turn the screen on and show me some or all of the message. If this can be a fix, I will regret uninstalling this app.

Works well does what it says. Only problem is no matter what duration I choose for screen light up time it's always 7 seconds, not a big deal but still would be a nice improvement if it was fixed

When I get a text I want my phone to light up. This app does exactly what I want. Make sure when you change settings, you click the apply box! Other apps will show you the text. This just lights up your phone.

It does exactly what it supposed to, and I highly recommend it for every phone, where the screen doesn't automatically turn on for incoming SMSs. As for pop-up notifications - they can be easily turned off in app settings!
