I have one specific person in my phone, and whenever they text me, it pops up on the screen and stuff, but the phone will not vibrate, will not make the alert noise or anything, ive tried deleting and readding the contact, i tried making a custom sound for them, etc.. so weird. they arent on a black list or anything. anyone else have this problem? what do i do?
 
Did you possibly change the notification settings for that person under the conversation view? You can individualize settings for different people.

if you click on the conversation, (series of texts), and the Settings option that he has shown, is the Person with the Gear under him, in the upper right corner of the screen.. on the upper left of the screen is the Call button for that contact. hope that helps.

depends on if your phone is rooted or not, but for NON-Rooted phones........ you have to download AndroidSDK and run the DDMS program inside of it, when the phone is plugged in to the computer, and you have USB Debugging Mode enabled on your phone, in the ddms program, if you click on one of the menu options up top, one of hte options is Screen Capture.
