Sometimes something goes wrong in the process of moving messages from the outbox to the sent or error box and i haven't quite figured out how to get it working every time yet! not sure why the back button triggers that effect, but i will do what i can to look into it! i pretty much only use the home button lol and i have great service where i am so the messages send really quick and that makes it hard to test!

As for the 2 options, its actually not possible to cancel sending a message once it has started that i know of... But i think i could add the retry option, that should be a pretty simple thing to do. I'll see what i can find out about cancelling the message though.

little status update, didn't get much of a chance to work today and things might be a little slow this week because i do have a lot of tests. hopefully i can get some littler stuff done that i've been wanting to do though. I've gotten most of the force closes out of the last version i think (although there may still be a couple i have yet to discover). little changelog for today, although you may not see an update for a few days here:

- Moved delete all conversations option to settings and left delete single conversation in menu

- Option to save all images in MMS message

- A few random/bothersome bug fixes

Still need to add the ability to save videos and strip unicode needs some desperate work, and then after that I think i could be home free for working on sending mms. but i've gotten a little discouraged after today and reading all of the research i could find, it will not be an easy process and I just hope i can figure it all out eventually. If anyone has experience or wants to do some more research that you think could help out, feel free to pm me or post a link or email me! Especially if anyone has sent messages programmatically before, that would be great! So yeah... over and out and you may not see me here for a while if i'm studying my tail off for these tests, 3 in 2 days :/
[Android Apps and Games] Quetzalcoatl:
School first buddy. The app can wait. :beer:
[Android Apps and Games] Shivver:
So anyone can prove that strip unicode works good?

btw. thanks klinkdawg, you did a great job, now it looks like everything works well, but I need to be sure about strip unicode =)
[Android Apps and Games] ptmax13:
for now it doesn't, at least for international languages. I think it only replaces certain characters. Dev said it will look into it if he finds time and the right method/instructions to do it.
[Android Apps and Games] tejadakenneth:
whenever i receive long message it says that i received 8 messages even if i receive one message. can you fix this issue? THANKS
[Android Apps and Games] TigTigerTig:
For some reason this app keeps breaking up my messages, even the small ones that only need one message to be sent.

I sent a message with 130 characters, and the person received that text in 3 different parts. I know it's a problem with this app because I've never had it on any other messaging app, and it's happened with both of my phones (GS2 and N4).

Anyone else getting this?

I know pro has limited mms, did receive mms shows small thumb nail of pic selected to open with gallery app but pic will not open up in gallery

Weird.

I am able to view the MMS in the gallery app, both ones I've sent and ones I've received.

[Android Apps and Games] john.fast:
Ive asked about this already, but no one has spoken to it yet and was hoping someone could comment on it. Am i the only one who is receiving long messages from a contact and it opens in a new conversation with that person, and the date being really obscure (sometime in 1969)?
[Android Apps and Games] Kchitown1977:
Future request ability to turn off vibration upon long pressing conversation
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
This date is actually date 0 when talking in terms of milliseconds :) haha not that that knowledge has helped me solve the problem yet. But at least I know where it comes from, it is an error when loading in the date for that message. Been trying to recreate it but with no luck. I am going to try and implement a system that senses whether that date is occurring and then reads in the send date instead of the date currently used which is the received date. Not sure if it will work or not but its worth a shot.

can you please replace the Green Android Smileys (not Emojis) with any others like HTC's; would really appreciate that :)

Also noticed force closed has something to do with mms being the last messaged received or sent in a thread, delete it and it works fine. App is getting close though, the black theme and quick settings alone make this a gem

Another request ability to delete single thread without long pressing, when pressing menu only option to delete all threads
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
I have gotten this request a few times, bit here is my motivation to not change it: I already added the iOS emojis and that actually bothered me lol this is an android app which is based off of the stock android experience and I want to keep as close to that as possible. That's why I'm keeping the green android figures, because in my opinion google has created the best thing in the world and I want to emulate that as best as possible. If you hate the green guys, then you do have the option to disable them all together, but until Google changes those icons, they will remain how they are in the app :) its a Google app, not and HTC app or iPhone app PR anything else and I would like to keep it that way. :)
[Android Apps and Games] kamilmirza:
ok :(
[Android Apps and Games] MnRAZB:
First off I have bought the pro version. And I understand that you said it has limited mms support, when I send a picture through another sms app it shows up in sliding messages. Just wondering why it has the functionality of showing the pictures, but lacks the ability to attach the picture to the message? Just wondering.

Sending MMS and viewing them are 2 completely different things and have absolutely no relation to each other when you have to program them.
[Android Apps and Games] Peacen1k:
I'm against this. Would be ok to have a choice of smileys style though.

Cause green android smileys are the best!
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
good news, i was able to start loading conversations a little different way, so all of you running something other than aosp should see a nice speed improvement. and a couple other things too. Just need to test for a while and make sure there aren't bugs with this way and then should be good to go. Full changelog for the next version:

- Start up time improvements

- Added counter for messages per conversation

- Moved delete all conversations option to settings menu

- Fixes related to date of MMS displayed

- Option to save all images in MMS message

- Bug fixes

It will probably still be a couple of days til an update, be patient with me :)
[Android Apps and Games] fjsferreira:
You should probably look at the unicode thing... Substituting some characters with "?" is just not usable. Cm10 MMS.apk does this correctly, can't you look at their source to fix that? It's the only thing preventing me from using the app, because I write in Portuguese, and that messes up all my messages :(

finally solved that pesky bug where some messages are saved twice! also was affecting those of you with conversation names at the top that showed the number 2 times in a row.
[Android Apps and Games] athdaraxen:
I was actually just about to report having that last issue. I was texting my friend and then all of a sudden it wouldn't let me send a message and I found it was because it started a new conversation with my friends number twice. XD

Way to read my mind Klink lol
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
testing went well for everyone so i'm putting up the latest version now. here is the changelog:

- Start up time improvements (mostly for non-aosp based roms)

- Added counter for messages per conversation

- Moved delete all conversations option to settings menu

- Fixes related to date of MMS displayed

- Option to save all images in MMS message

- Bug fixes

Hopefully it sorts out some fc's people have been having and everything goes over well.
[Android Apps and Games] GetPatriotized:
Is it just me or does the app take a lot of time to open? I bought the Pro version. It also crashes a lot. Apart from those, this is a great app.

when the quickreply box pops up, if you click anywhere it closes, kinda sucks if you press somewhere by accident, then got to go into the app to reply
[Android Apps and Games] Peacen1k:
The app is kinda rough in switching between the conversations list pane and the single conversation, no matter if contact pics are enabled or not. There is a lot of 'clipping' and general stuttering. There is also a lot of stutter when scrolling up or down in the conversations list pane. Looks like the app is struggling with loading something.

The stock messaging app has no such issues, so I know it can be very smooth.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
dont freeze the stock app, i only save messages through this app temporarily and then let the stock app save them permanently. Figured that was best as i didn't want to mess up old conversations etc.

Also guys, if anyone is interested, I did add a donate version to the play store. Just trying to make my way through college and I've put a ton of time into this app, so if you like it and it works well on your phone, consider donating to me please :) but no biggie if you dont, I've still had a ton of fun making it. Its not about the money haha all of the features will continue to stay free.
[Android Apps and Games] ..Cory..:
Hey, did you look at the freeze that happens when sending a text longer than one page long?
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
I have actually been experimenting with that a lot... you said it was on the quick reply that it happens, right? I havent gotten a freeze up at all yet with quick reply, and i sent almost a nine page message with it... but i will continue to look into it and see what i can find. does it happen inside of the app as well? because i send the messages the exact same way whether through quick reply or in app so i dont have any idea why it would be different.
[Android Apps and Games] iammodo:
Can't see donate version yet direct link maybe?

---------- Post added at 08:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 PM ----------

Could this be that over 140 characters it turns into a MMS rather then a SMS and MMS is not yet supported?
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
It isn't up yet, after i put it on the play store, it takes about 2 hours for you guys to be able to see it. Thanks for the interest though :)

And now, it isn't that because i dont convert it into MMS, i just break up the SMS instead into 160 characters. I'm still looking into the problem, but i really dont know what could be causing it... hmm. I will figure it out though.
[Android Apps and Games] iammodo:
its now showing up on the market.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Does anyone know how to add an application to cyanogenmod's default notification editor that allows you to change the color and length of notifications from apps you've chosen? I just added light flow support, but I would also like to allow for all of us custom ROM users to easily modify notifications. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] mingolianbeef:
Damm this is cool.!
[Android Apps and Games] ..Cory..:
I've experienced it on both the quick reply and app! It's not like a total freeze up, it's just a 5-6 second (longer if there are more pages) freeze up and then my phone goes back to normal.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Inside the app, the problem could come from having a ton of messages in your inbox. I have about 300 and it takes less then a second to refresh them all after i click the send button though... In quick reply I really have no idea. I will keep digging though.
[Android Apps and Games] ..Cory..:

Version 2.20 uploading right now to Play Store. Brings more bug fixes and the ability to switch the title bar color (the thing that lists contact names across the top). Enjoy :)
[Android Apps and Games] migueldbr:
love your app, just a few suggestions: popup reply(not just when quick reply is pressed from the notification bar) and delivery reports. with this it would be perfect! Thanks for your work
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
I am planning on adding pop up reply in the next update already :D not sure about delivery reports though... i will have to do some research before adding those
[Android Apps and Games] migueldbr:
thanks! Delivery reports are useful (to me at least), hope it isnt hard for you to implement. How about unicode support for languages like portuguese? Is there any way you could include an option to substitute "à, é, ã,"(etc) for "a, e, a" (etc) to workaround the messaging bug that reduces the 160 sms characters to 80 in some languages?

In your app i dont see the characters being reduced to 80 because of the bug, but it still happens because i get charged twice for an sms that does not use the available 160 characters(happens with a lot of sms apps, except for the CM messaging app which has the option i said in the previous paragraph)
[Android Apps and Games] ahmadsamhann:
aww for 4.0+ ? anyways gonna try it on my Ray :D thanks
[Android Apps and Games] CaptainGoSlow:
Hi,

Just wanted to say, I'm liking the app and impressed with how quick the dev responds to any issues. FC on S2, emailed yesterday and was resolved within the hour (including me working out how to send a logcat) and a new version of apk sent to me. Well worth the small donation. :D

There's a few things I wouldn't mind seeing in a future version:

Reading messages clear counters on stock app.

Copy, resend and forwarding of messages.

At the moment, if you lock the screen mid message, when it's unlocked it deletes the text. (Although I have just found you can paste it back in as it saves to clipboard)

Not sure if anyone else has had this. I had an issue where on the conversation pane, only half the numbers had names against them. I found this turned out to be caused by messages received from unknown numbers i.e. Tesco or Orange texts. Once I deleted the thread that contained the combined messages, the other contact names appeared.

Cheers again to the dev. :D
[Android Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
Great update! Keep them coming :D
[Android Apps and Games] mjpitts:
When you click dismiss in the status bar drop down it unlocks the device. Can we keep it locked?
[Android Apps and Games] GRLRV:
Unicode

Good work with the last update klinker.

There's still a big issue with the unicode option. You have here two images as example. With or without the unicode option enabled the result is the same. The characters are not substituted and the message gets split. Hope that can be corrected.

Also, as you can see as example, in GO sms you can send big messages with the same foreign characters without spliting or substituting them. Can't you do something like this?

With the rest there is no more problems. You are doing a really good job. Thanks!

Still getting lots of random FCs.

Requests:

-Resend message when it fails to send due to not having service.

-When I get multiple messages and quick reply comes up, it only shows one of the messages and there's no way to view the others. AOKP quick reply has a thing where you can swipe to view all messages received in quick reply. Could you please implement that? Quick Reply in the Play Store also does this, if I remember correctly.

[Android Apps and Games] mchu6am4:
Seen it now thanks....
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Just notices that the popup dialog still does not work when phone is locked or sleeping. Not very important to me but just wanted to mention it.

... and the menu function in the left panel "Delete Conversation" is working without that a conversation is marked. So if you do use it you do not know which conversation will be deleted.

Solution could be to put into the confirmation popup the name of the conversation which will be deleted, no name -> telephone number. Or better it should only work when one or multiple conversation are selected (future feature), if not grey that menu function out.
[Android Apps and Games] cbprod:
the quickreply disappears when the screen turns off or is locked. im using widgetlocker. also sometimes messages wont go through, it will show that its sending, id have to delete the message and try sending it again. then it will work
[Android Apps and Games] GetPatriotized:
Getting FCs a lot :( This barely happened on previous versions.
[Android Apps and Games] SportingChap:
Just bought the app last night - looking good! I only have one issue so far. I've seen it mentioned that the popup quick reply box doesn't show when the screen is off or locked. Well, that's true for me also [not true anymore; see edit below], but there's a little more to it. If you go into Advanced Notification Settings and enable Secure Notifications, the popup box is disabled completely, even when the option for it is checked.

Expected behavior based on the settings language and my experience with other apps is that popup would still work but sender and message text would not show (or scroll) in the notification bar up top.

It's ok if this is intended behavior, but I think the checkbox for popup should be disabled / grayed out (at the very least) if Secure Notifications is enabled.

Thanks!

[Edited 7 March 2013: Can now see popup when unlocking phone.]
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
well i fixed the bug of your messages getting split when they shouldn't be. still working on strip unicode, but added another couple little things as well. here's the changelog so far, I'll probably release an update tomorrow or else early this weekend when i get a couple other things finished up. mostly bug fixes this time around though.

- Persistant DashClock option (shows dashclock extension even when you have no new messages) and DashClock bug fixes

- Bug fixes

not very exciting, i know, but i've changed a lot under the hood that should get things running a little smoother i'm hoping. i'm noticing a little bit of a difference on my nexus 4 switching between conversations so thats a plus.

just got strip unicode sorted out so that it actually works for all characters that aren't supported by GSM 03.38 encoding and it turns them into ? otherwise it leaves them alone. this is a big step in the right direction at least :) next up will be trying to replace them with their alternatives of gsm compatable characters instead of ?.

[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
yes i would actually really like it if all of you gave me characters from your languages that you would like mapped, because i dont know many and i only speak english :) I did find a list of some, but I want to try and get it working well for everyone. so yes, that list is perfect and tell me some more!
[Android Apps and Games] ptmax13:
Well, I would like to say that first of all you have to be able to detect the language that the keyboard is switched to. Because, for instance, Latin-character languages require a different approach from non-Latin languages. I don't know every language, but I will speak for my native one, Greek.

"Strip Unicode" for Greek language is pretty straightforward. All you need to do is those two things:

1) Capitalize every letter, for example: "αβγδ" will have to become "ΑΒΓΔ".

2) Strip any form of accentuation. for example: "δύο λέξεις" will have to become "ΔΥΟ ΛΕΞΕΙΣ" (and NOT "ΔΎΟ ΛΈΞΕΙΣ")

If you need the whole alphabet to work with, there's always wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_alphabet

p.s.: I'm still surprised that you have to do all this work by yourself. If your app is indeed based upon the CM app, it should have had all these things build in. And if not, why on earth don't you get the code from there?
