lousou76, thank you very much for the explanation and, of course, for creating the apk. It is trully amazing!

I would like to ask if any experiences doubled incoming SMSes after the installation of the program (v. 19 and 20). I do not think that it is a bug of the program. I doubt it is a bug in the ROM (GingerDX 028b for Sony Ericsson x8) because after the fresh installation everything worked as it should. Most probably I made mistake in the configuration but I cannot figure out where.
[Android Apps and Games] Litderose:
Just a little post to report that your app (#19) is working perfectly with unofficial CM9 rom !

I'm swapping with CM7 and CM9 using the same SMS app ! :victory:

I will update with your #21 soon.

Cheers.

Is it possible to separate font settings of message list from message，like cm7 stock settings? Now when increase font size for message, list's font increases too. 2 font settings or font settings for message as stock are preferred to me, just my 2 cents Thx
[Android Apps and Games] Ajsh:
Not me at least.

Thanks a lot for this great mod. Love the option to remove the smiley key. Hated that thing...

Looking forward to being able to change colors:)

Thanks for this!

Is it possible to remove the names of the sender/receiver that is present on each text message? The color of the bubbles alone would be enough to distinguish whether or not the message was sent or received.
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
No, please no, unless it is an option.

[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
it is definately a bug but I cant find it without a test device that had it. I think it has to do with some stock apps using same ontent names. I hope to find a device that produses double to solve it.

;) I will pit a lot of cistomization options I just need time. I dont think it is wise to remove the name. there is an avatar as well. what if you pit the same color? We can pit an option for this but I like it very much with the avatar. The only problem now is how to change the little bubble arrow whicj is a bitmap and not a colored box like the rest of the bubble. zor we can remove it of course.

yes that would be nice, 2 settings.

I still am not happy with the color picker. I want another.

[EDIT]

Colorpicker is ready!

ChangeLog 30/06/2012

* Added colorpicker for notification led colors!!!

v22

Now that we can select colros in a decent way we can move on to customization.
[Android Apps and Games] MtG92:
I'm getting a fc when trying to go to settings on the latest version... I'm on cm7.2.
[Android Apps and Games] smallfish:
Then Awaiting 2 font settings & customizing color of message bubble:thumbup::D
[Android Apps and Games] BonnyBedlamBoy:
I recognized the same. Trying to uninstall and install now instead of replacing the app ...
[Android Apps and Games] BonnyBedlamBoy:
Uninstalling the app before installing v22 is working. Settings now accessible.
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Yes I forgot to mention that the default color options do not much from one version to another and the Settings cause an error, please uninstall previus before installing 22 :)

I was so happy that I also forgot to put the code to the Leds. I just save it and I dont pass it to the leds so you can change it all you like lol.

I will fix it in 23 :)

I want some nicer emoticons, hey developer? Please put nicer emoticons, and my leds dont work and it fc and etc etc :P

Changelog 1/07/2012

* Fixed Led Colorpicker did not save values to leds

* Added new set of emoticons in better quality and setting in options for default android emoticons

v23!
[Android Apps and Games] yokozuna:
lousou76, I would like to ask you for implementing two things, of course, if it is not too troublesome and too hard:

1. I tried to figure out which option is responsible for doubled SMSes. And nothing. What is interesting - the sound signal is always single, the text messages are doubled. It seems to me that it is a bug in my X8 ROM. I think it can repeat in other X8 ROMs (and possibly other ROMs). So if it is possible to ask add a condition like "if two or more messages from one sender are identical leave only one and ignore the rest" it would protect form multiple messages sent for different reasons (it happens in every New Year's Eve due to technical reasons...).

2. the other request is rather aestethic in nature. Can you make possible to display thumbnail icons if the "number" is made of text instead of numbers and the thumbnail is (and of course "the number") present in the Gmail addressbook? There are senders like my operator's services, storm warning services that send SMSes from "numbers" like PLAY (the name of my operator), POZNAN (the city where I live) and so on. I put them to the addressbook, added thumbnails, but the thumbnails are not shown in my SMS/MMS app. If they would be shown it would make one life easier.
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Is your original ROM messaging app still installed? If so, both apps are receiving one message. I use Titanium Backup to "freeze" my original or I get two messages. You might try this app to see if it will solve it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ramdroid.appquarantine

Also for @lousou76, I have a GPS app that the pro version hides its icon by freezing it and I can see it frozen in Titanium Backup as well.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpstoolbox.pro
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
It is a bug but one could actually send the same sms twice. I dont want to fix it randomly.

I must find a device to test it.

If you freeze your stock app you will not have this but its a matter of time for me to find the bug.

I see your point on no number senders. Avatars search names and emails but those kind of names are not valid names or numbers. My xperia device allows me to put a name with no @ on the email so it does work for me if i make a contact and put that name on the email.

Some phones though do not allow non valid emails so I dont know If it would be better to search the display name instead.

My code searches for valid numbers or numbers so it doesnt find them. I will allow non valid email searches or will search display name also if the sender is not a valid number or email. This will solve it
[Android Apps and Games] yokozuna:
Bingo! Thank you very much for the tip. Works with flying colours! No doubled SMSes anymore!

A bit pity that the app cannot be flashed via CWM and overwrite the default app.
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
I did not say that it cannot be flashed I just said that you don;t have to do that.

If you have the rom zip you can replace your app in system/app with this one and flash your rom as is.

The problem is that many stock messaging apps have different names, for example in xperia sony roms the default messaging app is /system/app/conversation.apk

so if you flash the /system/app/mms.apk you still have the stock installed.

ChangeLog 2/07/2012

* I have updated the contact search code to look for contact names when the sender is not a valid PhoneNumber or Email like in advertisment sms's.

* I removed the "presence" deprecated icon. This supposed to look for online contacts. (it uses a deprecated API).

v24!
[Android Apps and Games] Ajsh:
Keeps crashing when trying to open settings. This seems to have started happening after I flashed Temasek's build 127. Anyone having the same problems?

Please uninstall first then install new version.
[Android Apps and Games] Ajsh:
I just replaced the apk in system apps, changed permissions and rebooted. Shouldn't that work?
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
no. you have saved settings in /data and old info on dalvik cache. you did not need to do that. uninstall the old version
[Android Apps and Games] baszu:
v24 is always forced close for me, while v21 is not.

Anything I can do to figure out what wrong with my phone.

Can I also request enhance to group sender sms into the same conversation? By default, different sender get different conversation.

e.g. my operator and many other send advertisement or notification from different sender name like "True", "TrueMove", "TrueID", etc.
[Android Apps and Games] baszu:
Issue resolved after I go back to v21, and re-install v24 over it again.
[Android Apps and Games] hristodipchikov:
Did you clear data app?
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Yes it is what I said I added the colorpicker and the led colors save diffirent. aaynctask tries to read the cilirs and notify so it fc.

you should be able to just uninstall older and install 24. I will try to reproduce the erdor if i missed someth but it shouldnt fc on clea. install because when you uninstall it removes all settings.
[Android Apps and Games] baszu:
Do you mean saving the sender text into email?

I've tried v24 by putting sender into email and not work. Only if contact name is exact match (case sensitive) with sender name works.
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
hmm you are right. if it is not an email or a number it looks for contact.name but i forgot to put case insensitive :p will fix that.

group searching and unifying conversations will make it a bit slow and i dont want that. we can make an option for it later on :)

if you use adb you can adb uninstall com.lousou.mms and then adb install com.lousou...apk.

you can also update with adb install -r com...apk when we have no ipdate problems
[Android Apps and Games] baszu:
Can you enhance so it can search non-email sender text from the contact email as well?

By doing this, i don't need to create several contacts for each sender when it is the same avatar.
[Android Apps and Games] Industrial:
would be possible to make sure that sms (set a limit) may be erased gradually and not all at once? thanks a lot!!:good:
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Hmm you mean to add multiple emails to one contact so all of them will find the same avatar from one right? Nice idea! But I have to make one query basically not 2. I first decide if it is an email or a phone and if it is not i look for name. anyway I ll do it ok!

I haven;'t tested that feature at all. Doe sit remove everything?

[EDIT]

ChangeLog v25 ** updated link just now

* Added find avatar by email on non standard senders (if sender is not a phonenumber or valid email, look for him on display name and if you cant find him search all emails matching that sender as well - case insensitive)

* Added text edit on led color pickers so you can enter specific hex color.

Enjoy!
[Android Apps and Games] Industrial:
sorry i've a mistake it's work perfect!!! :D

would be great if you could improve bubble style, and make it similar to ics...thanks for hard work!
[Android Apps and Games] ladalgigi:
Hi

Very nice app !

just want to know if it's possible to have mirror because i've got problem with mediafire ?

thanx for your job

:good:
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
I really am having a lot of trouble right now just making this version work smoothly on ics. I promise I will have a look on ics when its a bit more stable.

The code for avatar searching is now very nice!

You can create a contact with name "Advertisments" for example and put emails on it like "ThisCompany", "Thatcompany" senders with no numbers and choose a specific advertisment avatar.

This way all of those senders will have the advertisment avatar!

Here is v25 (current) on 4shared
[Android Apps and Games] Ajsh:
Removed old apk from system apps, wiped dalvik cache, put the new one in there instead and it worked!:) Great thx
[Android Apps and Games] tandat2104:
thank for great app

i use this and disable the system app

a little sad because the led notification does'nt work on my motorola backflip, i change notification color but it still green :)
[Android Apps and Games] baszu:
Thanks for this wonderful app :)

Is it possible to add sms popup notification? I know there are a lot in google play but none of them can search avatar from email, contact name.
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Unfortunatelly led notification has a lot of incomatibilities. Xperia roms for ex stop blinking if 2 programs send led blink. There is a free program on google play called led tester. you can use it to find if your phone supports colors and which of them. Let me know :)

Of course my friend we will do that. It is on my main plans, I just havent decided if i do that next. I thought it would be nice to deal a bit with customization first and add custom bg image, different font size on messages, and settings for font colors and bubbles for each of the 2 main skins (light and dark).

Those are a lot to do and I too want a basic quick reply popup.

I also plan to add schedule sending.

I dont have a lot of time and am only one man developing though with 2 basic hands :p
[Android Apps and Games] Industrial:
hello

would be possible to change the color of the contact's name in conversations? would be useful in the classical style of conversation, one on the "list"

thanks for your work
[Android Apps and Games] mn31pro:
lousou76 can you add a star button (add to faviorite) on top right corner of each message? (like stock xperia S messaging app)
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
You mena the bold part after the avatar? lousou76:

each message or each conversation? we have to keep favorite list and make options for it to do that. Do you have that many messages???
[Android Apps and Games] Industrial:
I wanted to change the color of the contact (circled in red in the photo)..thanks a lot!!!:good:

I have upload a photo of my screen in my public profile/contact info/ homa page (as a new user I can not post images, and send pm) :(

sorry for the inconvenience :(
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Yeap I got it.

We have to make an optiopn for it, although setting it red by default it does not look bad. what others think
[Android Apps and Games] mn31pro:
each message. with stock messaging app of xperia s i can star any message with click on top right corner of it then i can view all stared sms in first page of app when i press menu & click on stared messages. starred message is a option in menu of it.thanks
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Hmm must check it out to see how it works.

It shows a list no matter who the sender is? Just a plain list of starred messages?

And you can do what with them?

Here I made a version with red colored sender.

com.lousou.mms_bubbles26.apk
[Android Apps and Games] Industrial:
it's possible have a bubble style like WhatsApp PLUS HoLo v1.80?

it's so beautiful!:laugh:

thanks for a version with red color :good::good:

Compression issue

Hello, I love this app. But in the moment I'm having a major compression issue. When I take a screen shot it looks good and all. But when I send it, it gets all blurry and crap. Is there a way to to compress it minimal or not at all? Go sms has that feature in their settings. I just want this app to have that feature so I won't have to go back and forth with apps. I'm in t-mobile Samsung Galaxy s2
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
This must be an mms option. I haven't tested mms really I mostly use it for sms but I will look at the problem and let you know.

Looks nice as feature. Takes work though, I must see how we can easilly intergrate this.

I mostly like the rounded corners bubble with the transparency.
[Android Apps and Games] yukimura12:
yes, yes, i like it too, can you do it:D:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] tandat2104:
thank you

I test and it just green :))
[Android Apps and Games] Industrial:
would be possible to implement a menu option of re-sending of the message in the event that the message had not been sent (the absence of signal, etc. ..)

or as soon as the line is re-applied automatically sends the message ... thanks!

sorry for my bad english
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
It already does that without menu option.

I have another version ready. still did not look the mms reduce size but will do so.

Have alook at this one.

ChangeLog

* Replaced bubbles

* Added phone type to the recipient editor

* Removed Leading span from message layout

* Added seperate option for message font in message list view

v27

[Android Apps and Games] Gonox:
I like the new bubble message style but why not keep the old colors ? or make the difference in color a little more noticeable between the income and send message
[Android Apps and Games] baszu:
Agree, I also like new bubble style. But the color is not good when using white background for sending message (Using black background is ok). Adding border to the bubble should help because white background and light yellow is quite the same for my eye.

Another bug found is searching avatar by email feature is lost in v26 and v27.
[Android Apps and Games] hristodipchikov:
Me too .
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Yes guys you are right I didn't like it either.

We can either keep the old colors with slight difference or use the same bubbles.

I kind of like white bubble with black blue and red letters.

I have news for you.

I just figured out the nasty double messages bug.

It seems that when you have a stock messaging app it saves the incoming sms so mine saves it double.

I used the timestamp the sender address and the body to compare and avoid duplicate messages but there is one cituation where this will not work.

For example if the stock messaging app uses original timestamp instead of localtime my comparison will think it's a different message with the same content. All of the stock apps that I know always save local mobile time. If they save server time they must have an option for it and you should disable it with the stock app notifications.

I also found the part with the mms compression settings.

there is a config value of 640x480 on mms pic size and 1MB total mms limit.

I kind of increased those to 800x600 and 2MB but I will make options for those.

I also put the same bubbles for now (left right). They look nice

[EDIT]

uploaded v29, check first post ;) added the mms max width height and size options as well. I can;t test the mms so if you can please test and let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] koz:
lousou76 - thanks for your work on this project. I have a couple questions:

1. What permissions does the app request?

2. Is this presently working for ICS? I noticed on the 1st post it seems to show this works for both GB & ICS, but in a later post, it appears this is not working for ICS. Which is it?

Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Works great for me in ICS!

Sent from my LS670
[Android Apps and Games] Ajsh:
Great! Like the rounded edges and the red names:)

I have a couple of questions though:

1. When a contact or myself doesnt have a contact picture and you click the picture the frame disappears. Is that a bug?

2. Can I add a contact picture to "Me"?:P Otherwise I dont see why my own messages should have contact pictures.

I can't send MMS(Just keeps saying "sending..")so can't test the MMS updates...

Thank you for your hard work:)
[Android Apps and Games] tml478:
Mms issues are related to apn settings. For mine to work I had to use apn back up and restore from the market. It's free. First backup apn then restore then reboot. Worked for me
[Android Apps and Games] yokozuna:
Options----> My Avatar Phone/Email. Enter your Gmail address and your profile picture will show up.
[Android Apps and Games] Superm@π:
Does not seem to work on the rezound. Recipients not getting messages and continuously says pending.
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
you can either put email or phone number of your personal contact and it will find it after closing the prog with back button until you exit and reopen.

mms and sms sending problems are not related to this app but on the phone settings apn. it uses the phone sms sender not own functions.

frame dissapears when no link in avatar. not a bug just how it is.

I will try the mms sending myself.

please check that you use 3g and not gsm only.

thank you for all comments. more to come :)
[Android Apps and Games] Superm@π:
I understand what your saying but I guess where I'm getting confused is that all messages send fine using the crappy sense messaging but texts go through sometimes with the new apk. Also, even if the message sends successfully it continues to show pending status and never goes away. Here are my settings:
[Android Apps and Games] Ajsh:
Didn't work for me:( Thanks for your reply though.

Now I can watch myself everytime I'm typing a sms:)

I'm aware of the fact that it doesn't have anything to do with this app. Just said it:P And yes 3g is on.
[Android Apps and Games] Superm@π:
Okay fixed the "pending issue" but now I can't send mms. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] smallfish:
Just upgrade to v29, almost perfect outlook for bubble messaging except without different color for in & out msg yet

Thanks for 2 font settings. If there is a 3rd font setting for sending time in message bubble, it sounds great. Current font for time is big when I set message font to 20,

now I freeze stock one and use your great apps instead. In cm7 there is option for locking messaging app in memory, do you know if your apps is included and locked in memory too in order not to miss messages? Or I should rename & replace mms.apk with your apps to achieve so?
[Android Apps and Games] lousou76:
Usually it is either GSM mode only selected and not UMTS in phone settings or there is an error in phone apn settings.

You don't have to freeze the stock messaging app anymore (although doing so is even better) I have fixed the issues, although I could do some more fine tuning.

time font setting is basically message font size - 3. That is 16 default with 13.

We could make it a bit smaller but I dont think more than 4 is good.
[Android Apps and Games] Industrial:
you can change a color sender with a 'blue ics'?

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Mr.Its:
I would just like to say that I really love this app. Thanks OP! :o However, I would really like it if there was an option to hide my avatar from the "Compose new message" line like the stock SMS/MMS app. I sometimes press it by accident and as it serves no purpose to me (not like I'm going to text or call myself) then it'd be worth having an option for, no? Currently I know I can disable all avatars but that's not what I want to do.

Also when bubbles are turned off would it be possible to set a custom background colour for the replies? Like in the stock app the replies from contacts is a dark grey but in this they're the same colour as my own.

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] smallfish:
Just wonder if this apps can be locked in memory? The priority/ood is content provider but default one is foreground
