On Google play the sliding messaging app doesn't show an icon. It's blank. Don't know if it's just me. Also I had to manually go and check to see if there was an update. It didn't tell me automatically that there was an update
[Android Apps and Games] thyttel:
You still need to fix this issue with MMS for the masses. For many people your current solution is just not working. And I don't understand why with Go SMS there are no problems or for that matter any of the other SMS programs in Play Store but with Sliding Messages you need to jump through hoops to set up MMS and hope that your one of the lucky ones for whom it works.

It's a great program but you really need to stop being so focused right now on the design of this card or this color and work on the core of the program which also is a core feature for those who bought the Pro version.

Not ranting or anything. But it becomes a bit frustrating to see tons of updates being released all focused on how the program looks when an important core feature is clearly not working as it should.

I just opted in for beta and it showed up instantly in the play store with its correct icon and all wright info
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Know what though, its my app. I've done everything I can to get MMS to work and sorry it doesn't for you. Sorry there's not a team of me's working on it. Sorry you wasted a dollar on an app that can't send your picture messages. I'll take priorities how I choose, and updates to the look and feel are better then none at all. Find a different app or find me someone that knows what their doing to help, ive done everything I can reached out yo others, researched, everythinh, and honestly it works perfectly for me along with about 80% of the people I talk to. I'm happy with that. It doesn't mean that its not being worked on still but I'm stuck and have moved onto other things. I've said that over and over and if you're unhappy, too bad. I've done everything I can to make as many people happy as I possibly can but I'm not some coding genius who's been doing this for years. 4 months. This isn't my full time job. I'm a student and for the app to have gotten this far at all is frankly a miracle. I was ready to be done with it two months ago and comments like that make me want to be done with it again. I've tried my best, sorry that's not good enough for you and I sincerely apologize.

You have a PayPal account? I'll personally send you your $0.99 lol. Seriously though I do understand your frustration but he's a one man team. You kinda did come off demanding so... just saying. I'm sure mms will eventually be figured out. Besides, if I really want to send mms and my life depended on it, for now I can use my stock app for that.

Go sms has been out for years and I can't send sms so obviously he's not the only one when go developer's can't figure it out. Good luck messaging them lol they don't respond. Klink responds to all my emails. Not in days either within hours. I had 3 problems all were fixed and I had a test app sent to me to made sure it worked and he even added the emoji tabs like I recommend. That help was worth my $1.

I can't see anywhere a promise from the dev about updates...
[Android Apps and Games] Ekofasc:
Feedback regarding newest version.

1. The threads don't really blink when sending a message longer than one line in the hangouts layout, but the sending animation (sliding in from the side) doesn't work then.

2. The UI glitch when hiding the keyboard is there again. It's also present in the classic layout, but not in the card layout as long as you have chosen to display the contact cards at the top.

Edit.

3. The up button should have a menu icon rather than a back icon. Just noticed hangouts also has a back icon in the same situation, weird.

Is it only need that the v5.0 update crashes when I open settings? Using nexus 4 on PA ROM.

Beamed from my very paranoid and harsh Nexus⁴
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
try. resetting app data. that sounds like miss handled settings from the last update
[Android Apps and Games] zellleonhart:
that worked, cleared data and the settings can be opened. But once I set to card template, the settings crash again.

Also, I hope in Hangout/Classic template, the first view when opening the app can be the list of all SMS'es instead of the latest SMS received. (or is there any setting I missed?)
[Android Apps and Games] anerik:
Update works amazing but how the hell did you put hangouts bubbles on card layout? Or is it the hangouts white or wtf? i love it!!!

Edit: a couple requests:

reporting a working MMS apn for me:

MMSC: http://mms.movistar.com.ar

Proxy: 200.68.32.239

Port: 8080

Also, send me strings whenever possible, i want to take a crack at that spanish translation :P

Oh, and i would like, in popups, the feature to mark message as read when you tick the close button, so i don't have to enable the "view conversation" thing with the tick on it. Thanks!!

Hi

Firstly nice update. Just thought I'd let you know that I still get some crashes using this app. I can't really provide much more to show it as I'm not sure what to provide

I use it on note 2 Android revolution Rom v17 and nova launcher. I'm using paid version if that makes a diff

Keep up the good work!!

Sorry for the interruption but this thread needed a little bit of cleaning to remove the...arguing.

Please remember to always try and post as politely as possible, it is very easy for somebody to take offense at what are meant as constructive comments. Purposefully making them aggressive or offensive is never ever a good idea.

The OP has been very supportive of this App from the very beginning and he has made a good faith effort to make MMS work for as many people as he can. I am sure that nobody wants a 100% working MMS more than the OP does - seriously!

Please, I am asking nicely, no more bickering in this thread.
[Android Apps and Games] toansta:
oh yeah also, not sure if a bug or done intentionally but some of my messages cannot be forwarded while others can.

no idea why
[Android Apps and Games] hollisterryann:
Swipe to delete messages would be cool like on gmail. With an option to confirm delete just in case people keep sliding away needed messages
[Android Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
In Gmail they don't get 'deleted' but archived. And with swiping between conversations, swipe to delete would be chaos :P
[Android Apps and Games] hollisterryann:
No you can change it to swipe to delete and confirm after swiping. As long as you pull from the far right side I don't see it being a problem. Just an idea
[Android Apps and Games] tkjeeper:
Incorrect, under settings you can change it to swipe to delete

[Android Apps and Games] g2uzer:
My thoughts exactly . I hate that the google hangouts has that , I always almost delete the conversation when all I want to do is swipe to the next screen

BTW the only bug I noticed is the emoji one. Where when you scroll you see the old ones for a little then They eventually change .

Also when you reply or close down the SMS pop out , it still showing like you never read it when you open up SM, not sure if its a bug or normal
[Android Apps and Games] beneze:
Just wanted to say that I'm loving the update, especially with the hangouts UI! It really has been polished smooth. Great job!
[Android Apps and Games] Jodicus6645:
Just throwing ideas out there

Not a complaint just throwing ideas at you for brainstorming.

What do you think of having a edit option which you would get to by hitting the settings menu button so setting menu > edit while your looking at a conversation which after hitting this option will take you into edit mode each text section will then have a check box beside it. Which after you select the amount of texts or the desired selection of texts via the check boxes you then have the option to either delete or forward these messages.

Once again just a thought and I am aware this is a messenger feature on "other" messaging applications and I am not trying to copy them I just think its a awesome feature.

Also if this is already a thing I apologize I was not aware of it.

Thanks and once again keep up the amazing work great app! I am trying to convince all my friends to buy the paid version!:highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] kaos1211:
Great app bought the the pro version for mms kinda sucks it doesn't work
[Android Apps and Games] Jodicus6645:
Make sure the APN settings are set correctly for your carrier. As he points out in the Play Store since Jelly Bean Google blocks access to your APN settings through third party apps. You have to set it manually or select the correct one form the list. I am on AT&T and use AT&T #2 on the list. Also do not disable the default messaging app as it uses it as he also states I myself did not read this and had issues with MMS as well until I fixed that. Just disable the notifications for the stock messaging app.
[Android Apps and Games] kaos1211:
Yeah lol honestly I don't post much as I try to read and fix things not just ask devs.tried the sprint apns from the list and googled but same apn settings as are there and no go also I never disable the stock one as I use it sometimes for no reason lol. Thanks for the advice though quick response always appreciated
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Please bring back the Menu "Delete conversation" in the chat itself. I have to go each time i get spam to the conversation list and delete it there. Was so much easier before.
[Android Apps and Games] anerik:
Would be nice like most of the apps... Long-click on one doesn't delete, it enables batch :P Or swype to delete would be awesome too

Here's a log of my force closings on the latest release

It has happened since the 5.9 release but have now just gotten the chance to create a log cat

I don't have override stock or run as background enabled (happens regardless of these two options being checked)

What's weird is that the app works fine for a while, about 10 minutes to an hour, then bam, starts force closing out of nowhere.

When i was running the logcat, I could open the first thread just fine (I have it to show the threads at startup), but as soon as I clicked 2nd thread, the thread would try sliding onto the screen and before it finished, the app would freeze and force close, eventually.

I can slide from the first thread to the second thread without a problem, just can't click on the second thread to begin with.

Let me know if there's anymore specifically that i need to log,

http://pastebin.com/RNngTyTr

this logcat (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/82252749/2slidingmessaginglogcat.txt) is me swyping between messages.

First thread and second thread appear just fine (clicking ont the first and swyping over to the second), but after that, all other threads are blank and the app eventually force closes when i get to them.

Is it possible to make the popup reply box pop over the lock screen? So we don't have to unlock the device before we reply? I think sms popup was able to do this
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
no... just no... unless you're on a slide to unlock... then maybe, but its there for a reason. delay your lock if your irritated that much is really the proper way of doing this since this can allow a lot of things happen on the screen for those moments unlocked.

I personally use GMD gestures and tasked in combination to allow a way to lock the screen regardless of delay settings .
[Android Apps and Games] chinkster:
What do you mean no? Sms popup is able to do this already.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
yes, I know but ive seen the downside to doing this.

please clarify if your expecting it to unlock your screen while there's a security enabled or no
[Android Apps and Games] Ekofasc:
glowfly puts a nice pop-up on top of my secure lockscreen. the downside is when you choose to open the sms app from the pop-up rather than directly reply from within it, it will only open the stock app, no matter what. despite my contacting them about this. so I'd be all for an option for this. but first I think the animation when sending a message longer than one row needs to be fixed, as well as the UI glitch when hiding the keyboard. these issues make me stick to the stock app.

Wish you could block wifi

I only have trouble with this app when im on Wifi when it comes to MMS. I wish there was a way to make the app not even be aware of wifi at all seems to be the only issue at least with mine.
[Android Apps and Games] kaos1211:
Haven't had luck with mms can't send but isn't there an option for a work around involving WiFi?
[Android Apps and Games] Jodicus6645:
upon lenlop

Yes there is but that's only for sending, does not seem to work for receiving which when I am at home I use Wifi doesnt leave me in a good situation for texting while at home as I group text a lot with friends. I do not blame the DEV tho he is one guy. I am simply throwing thoughts his way in hopes of trying to make things "band-aid" till he can find a better solution. Really like this app want to see it become the "GO-TO" messaging app.

I would like to say tho since the lastest update I have gotten random MMS APN error even with Wifi turned off and I cant even send MMS text while on Wifi with the "wifi fix" check box option selected. Again not complaining just letting you know sir.
[Android Apps and Games] wera750:
I would love to see the option to cancel a message if I accidentally hit send.
[Android Apps and Games] chinkster:
no i was hoping that the popup will pop over the lockscreen so that we dont have to unlock the phone to reply. the phone will still be locked after you reply to the message. i think it defeats the purpose of a popup if it pops up underneath the lockscreen. probably only useful if you are actually using your phone at the time of the incoming message.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
since explaining why its not supposed to be allowed isn't getting anywhere, there are a few ways around that right now. use a third party lock screen or a lock screen widget like the ones already provided(most likely the reason Google made them) though I dont think there's a way respond with them yet.
[Android Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
well, not really 'incorrect' as by default it's archive unless you change it ;)
[Android Apps and Games] tkjeeper:
Nuff said

[Android Apps and Games] PearlMikeJam:
Klink- I think this is similar to what I described with my experience using different SMS apps and widgets. It seems as though Android is not completely recognizing Sliding as a full SMS replacement. Certain actions always use stock or the previous default and do not allow us to choose Sliding. Other SMS apps must register different on the OS and are recognized by all apps.

To see an example, install Flip SMS Widget. When you open a message from the widget, it will not take you to Sliding. It will open the stock messaging app without letting you choose. If you do not have a stock app, the widget will FC. The same is not true if something like Handscent is installed. Then it will give you a choice.

I hope this is helpful. I am enjoy the app and just want it to be perfect.
[Android Apps and Games] seicaratteri:
New UI is great, congrats! :) but app is very laggy and slow! Can't use it :(
[Android Apps and Games] saturnspike:
I'm having an issue where the font size of the popup, conversation list, and conversation text all shrink down to the minimum size 12. Going into settings and exiting (without actually changing anything) fixes it and there's a pause exiting the menu and the entire app redraws at 14 or whatever they're set at.

I've searched but haven't found anything. I also can't figure out what's triggering it. Any ideas? Absolutely love the application otherwise!
[Android Apps and Games] Faaipke:
Just wanted to touch base again on the whole MMS thing going around...actually, I'm just trying to get something confirmed.

These are my provider's settings (Proximus, Belgium)

APN : event.proximus.be

user name : mms

password : mms

MMSC : http://mmsc.proximus.be/mms *

MMS-proxy : 10.055.014.075 *

MMS port : 8080 *

MCC : 206

MNC : 01

Verification type : PAP

APN type : mms

APN protocol : IPv4

I've tried setting it up in SM with the ones marked *. Wouldn't we require to fill out user name/pasword in order for SM to get some sort of 'authorisation' to send MMS?

Still very much liking this app, especially card layout... just noticing some 'delay' when starting the app (black screen)... very smooth UI

Keep up the good work! and thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Link_of_Hyrule:
The new hangouts look is amazing I would love to see it even closer to hangouts by allowing an option to hide phone numbers at top while keeping their name. Also would love to see the emoji popup redone to look and function like the one on hangouts as well as the message list it would be amazing if that looked and functioned like hangouts. My last request would be a hangoutified Chat Heads type feature that would be amazing!

Anyways keep up the awesome work! Can't wait to see what's next!
[Android Apps and Games] PearlMikeJam:
This still is persistent in the latest release. Has anyone else experienced this? This does not happen if I uninstalled Sliding. I do not want to do that, but cannot keep losing messages.
[Android Apps and Games] MWFD:
I also would love this. Or better yet, an option (like in Handcent) that delays the message ffrom sending by 3, 5, 7 or 10 seconds after hitting the SEND button. This allows for quick proofreading and 'canceling' a message before it's actually sent.
[Android Apps and Games] gaui:
Horrible solution. This was not like this before the card layout and the new popup.
[Android Apps and Games] NuK3DoOM:
I am really enjoying the new Hangout layout!

Just started using the app again after the big update a couple of days ago. Loving this app even more. The MMS works sometimes. I download through the stock messaging app. No big deal. Love this app though.
[Android Apps and Games] Quetzalcoatl:
Not sure if latest update or changing roms fixed my issue but everything is working well now
[Android Apps and Games] pokemontrainer4life:
I've been getting loads of FCs lately. Most noticeably since after the 6.0 update, but I think it might have started before that.

It happens when I pick a conversation from the list. Sometimes it'll work fine, but sometimes the messages don't show up for a couple seconds, and sometimes they don't at all. And after swiping to the convo list and trying to pick another thread, it'll start freezing and eventually FC. And occasionally when trying to open the app after an FC it'll just get stuck at the splash screen indefinitely until I force stop and try and open it again.

It's pretty annoying, and I can recreate it every time. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, tried "override stock" on and off, and I can't seem to find the problem. Here's a log: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7P4hxb-0gTcZzY4Y0Y0Y2NlOUE/edit?usp=sharing

[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
looks like from all of those logs that for some reason the connection to the smsmms.db that holds all of the messages is being refused. I have no idea why that would happen, have you changed any permissions on your device that may be stopping the db from being modified? That's all i've got for ideas

didn't even know you could send or receive just a blank message lol corrected for the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Little something I cooked up in my extra half hour yesterday for anyone who is interested..

Its working pretty well actually, and looks especially good on my tablet. Long term goals for this and my reasoning behind it: I either eventually want to do something like mightytext for tablet texting, or find a way to integrate gtalk into the app. Those may be very LONGGG term goals though, they are definitely a ways off at this point. for anyone interested in trying the layout though, it will be included in the next update, but you will need to be running paranoid android or another rom that supports changing app layouts. You can set it to 600dp and start the app in landscape mode and thats what you will get. It won't work if you just rotate to landscape while you are in the app though. Also, only applies to classic and hangouts ui.
