Leave screen off when receiving SMS?

Kayden96 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-28-2009, 12:11 PM

Every time I get an SMS message, the phone turns on and I start hitting buttons in my pocket. Is there a way to configure the phone so it stays sleeping when I get an SMS message?

Also, I thought I saw a utility that auto locked the screen everytime it was put to sleep... could anyone point me back to it please?

there is a registry edit you can do.

I am using CeRegEditor

navigate to-
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]

add DWORD value for selected key-

DWORD Value Name= DisableSMSWakeUpEvent
DWORD Value Data= 1

Are you sure that's not supposed to be a 1 for the data? I would think that 0 would mean it wakes up (as that would make disableSMSWakeUpEvent off) and 1 would mean it doesn't (disable wakup would be on).
