[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Hookani:
It is already set to do that but I think that because I did a restore from a previous phone there are a lot more messages than the set limit. I never had problems with my other phone though with that many messages. Think I'll try using another messaging app as the other reply suggests and see how that goes.

When installing another sms app, would it be starting new or does it integrate with the existing messages on the phone and bring those threads over to the new app.

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
The SMS is a globally accessible database. So any app can access it. Just make sure you turn off notifications for the builtin sms app.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Hookani:
Thanks guys. I'm going to give Handcent a try and see how that goes. Anyone know if you make Handcent your default messaging app, does that make it so messages no longer get added to the stock app's database? I ask that because I also use SMS Backup and Restore to backup my text messages.

Thanks,

[General Questions and Answers] JamesJoey:
I have a T-Mobile G2x and I'm using Titanium Backup to freeze or uninstall apps. inadvertently uninstalled Pico TTS without making a backup. I did find the download and have copied to my phone. Currently it is installed but frozen.

Any way, when I freeze Pico TTS my phone doesn't respond to any tapping of any icon after a reboot until I tab either the hard back button or the hard search button.

Any idea why this happens?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ray_jai:
Does anyone have issues with the audio when using in-ear earbuds? I noticed a slight static feedback (not sure how to describe it, its very slight, it doesnt distort the noise but its like a layer of white noise) when I'm actively using my tablet while having my earbuds on.

It occurs when I press on apps/unlock screen but later it goes away. However when when listening to music the white noise is always there. Is this normal?

I've already returned one of my tablets because of this and now that my second tablet has the same thing, im not sure if this is normal or am i just that unlucky.
[LG Optimus 2x] rafaelluik:
When I was reading a review about LG Optimus 2X on GSMArena what I found REALLY cool is the feature in which you perform a little tap on the side of the phone to make the text cursor go precisely to the left or right.

What it feels like? I kept wondering what happens if you're typing on a bus though!
[LG Optimus 2x] ecki2k:
Used that feature dor the few days on stock... Works surprisingly good, the odd vibration is ignored, you really have to tap on a side to trigger the cursor movement. Waving the device around, sitting in a train on a rough ride etc won't do anything.

Loved that feature but, imho, since GB brought the blue "cursor-enlargement" it isn't really needed anymore.

Stefan, tonyb, can it be done?
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Theoretically of course. Already came across it during development of my hybrid ROM. LG gestures code definitely can be ported, but I never checked in detail on how to completely port and activate it. Also I fear I don't have time for it currently.
[LG Optimus 2x] Netuser:
I hope you can find some time as this is great feature :D
[LG Optimus 2x] rafaelluik:
I think the feature might be pretty handy.

It isn't that easy to reach the corners of the screen so when you want to put the cursor in the initial position of a line it'd be useful. Also my HTC EVO 3D used to refuse to put the cursor after the dot in a phrase in the end of the line (oddly when I went testing now I could do it flawlessly).

Anyway I'm looking to buy this phone to my sister that's why I got interested. :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilc:
Hi, Just got a new Samsung Galaxy SIII with Ice Cream Sandwich.

I cannot get Send As (AKA Return Email address) working - I have my own domain, but I just redirect it to my gmail account, so I want to send email from my phone that appears to come from evilc@evilc.com

This is all set up in the Gmail web page options, but I think those settings are just for webmail I guess.

I have set the account to Exchange (Activesync) for the moment because the push frequency seems a lot quicker than adding a gmail accout, but couldn't find any settings for send as.

I did try a gmail account also, same deal.

Not 100% sure the email app on the phone is the normal google one - it is called "Mail" so surely it is? Looks different to before, but I was on Gingerbread with my last phone.

Any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvantum:
"Mail" is for non-gmail accouts such as pop, activesync etc

Look for "Gmail" on the market.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilc:
Does the gmail app have instant push?gmail in the mail app only picks up every 5 mins.

Besides, connecting to gmail with activesync works fine, it's just that the send as option which is usually present for exchange accounts is not there
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilc:
Oh, and I tried the gmail app and there was no send as option plus it does not observe the gmail setting
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvantum:
GMail does instant push by default. Double-check in system settings -> accounts that it's properly configured for sync.

As for send as, I just tested and it works for me. Here's where I had to configure it in GMail:

In web interface, go to settings, -> Accounts

"Check mail from other accounts (using POP3)" is for pickup of incoming mail only

"Send mail as" is where you configure smtp access to send mail

Essentially you have to configure the same account in two different spots.

If that's configured and it still doesn't work, I'd try connecting to the email account in question with a regular mail client, like Outlook, to see that maybe it's not configured to allow smtp. How do you host email on your domain?

And what do you mean by "does not observe the gmail setting"?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilc:
Thanks for the reply, but I think you misunderstand...

In my domain settings, I forward anything@evilc.com to my gmail address.

I then just have to configure the phone so that it sends using the gmail accountn as evilc@evilc.com, not the gmail address.

By "does not observe the gmail setting" I mean that when you log into gmail on a desktop using a web browser, there are send as options in there, but when you add the same gmail account to the phone, it does not use that setting.

So I think what you are saying about POP and SMTP is not applicable.

With regards to push - if you add a gmail account to the regular mail app, the shortest option for "Email check frequency" is 5 minutes. For an exchange account, it is "Push" (ie instant). I tested this yesterday and using a gmail account with exchange settings (server: m.google.com, domain: "google") synched much quicker than the same account just added as a gmail account.

However, on my previous phone running cyanogen gingerbread, there was an option in the exchange settings for send as, but it is not there - has this changed in ICS or is it maybe something to do with the ROM?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilc:
Looks like this feature has been removed from ICS - I found some other threads on the web moaning about the same thing.

I wish I had known this previously, I wouldn't have bought the damned phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvantum:
Is this what you're trying to do?

I use the GMail client, running ICS
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilc:
Well whaddaya know, I didn't realise that was a drop-down box - at least I have one workable solution now, thanks!

Annoying that there appears to be no option in Exchange though, will have to look into that...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvantum:
I'm curious - If you're using the Mail app, why not have it talk directly to your mail server for send, instead of proxying through gmail?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilc:
Because I do not have a mail server.

My domain host just has a box that I enter a catch-all address into a web page and all mail to my domain gets redirected to that address.
