Question Screen won't turn on for SMS
Hey everyone,

I have the AT&T version of the Touch Pro 2 with a stock ROM. I can't figure out how to get the screen to turn on when a sms comes in. I get a sound notification, but the screen stays off. I go to Settings--> Sounds & Notifications--> Notifications--> Messaging: New text message and the "Display message on screen" is checked. Is there something I am missing? The screen does turn on when I get an mms, though. It's weird.

Thanks

Re: Screen won't turn on for SMS
I'm confused..your Carrier is listed as Sprint...are you on At&T now? Anyway, try soft resetting your phone and see what happens. Otherwise I would try taking the phone in.

You need hd tweak. Its a setting to enable device wakeup on sms. Cdma phones do it automatically I believe, while Gsm phones stay sleep when you get an sms.

Re: Screen won't turn on for SMS
Gees, I missed all the fun. Yes I have Sprint, but I was posting this message for my friend who's on AT&T and has the TP2. I'll try this HD Tweak and see how it goes. Thanks for the help!

Re: Screen won't turn on for SMS
Well if there is a tweak that enables wake-up on GSM, there must be a reg key or cab to do the opposite on CDMA right?

I HATE that m TP2 wakes up on SMS. The only way I have been able to remedy accidental button pressing was with S2U2, which I would prefer not to use.
