Now i haven't been reading all of the pages here, so i might have missed it.

But i have a problem with the app. When i send a message to someone, then the app just jumps to the first person i have a conversation message with on my message list instead of being in the same conversation as the person i sent the message to.

This might be a known problem, but i'm just making sure this will get fixed or not forgotten.

EDIT: I have one request though. Please make / add a delete message button on the pop-up window when you get a message. So when i get a message, then i can just press the delete message button instead of having to go into the program (View Conversation) to delete the message.
[Android Apps and Games] GetPatriotized:
The latest update made it more stable but damn does it still take a while to open. 5 seconds is too long.
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Strange on my RAZR less than a second.
[Android Apps and Games] GetPatriotized:
I have like around 30 threads, totaling around 10000+ messages, could it be that?

It's the only app that takes a while to load. The app loads in a second but it takes 5 seconds to actually see anything.
[Android Apps and Games] JoseRebelo:
It probably is. It also takes about 5 seconds on my phone, with close to 17000 messages. The stock messaging app takes about 2~3 seconds to load though.
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
If you refer to GoSMS, Stock SMS, etc. -> They stay in memory or running as service. meaning all your messages are stored in the memory, for that they show up quickly after the first initial start.

Would be a nice feature in the future for SM, but i means to re write 30% of the code. Lot to do ;)

Btw. 10.000 is a lot. Why don´t backup 9500 ;)
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
yes.

lots of fixes the past couple days... still waiting to post the update, a couple more things i want to add first, but here is the current changelog:

- Received message animation

- Option to select speed of animations

- Option to delete message from notification or popup

- Conversations list customization settings

- Resend message if failed option

- Speed improvements when sending and receiving messages

- Dashclock related fixes

- Tons of internal code rewrites for bug fixes and stability
[Android Apps and Games] mjpitts:
Can you fix it from unlocking the phone when you click dismiss from the drop down menu?
[Android Apps and Games] raymond4:
What about the quick compose will it be in this update?
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
pretty sure it is now.

mostlikely all of it, i already have the base code and framework done, just have to implement the persistent notification if that setting is checked
[Android Apps and Games] :
YESSSS finally, thank you klink!
[Android Apps and Games] amzi:
Amazing nice concept. Keep it up. Its a little laggy though and can we get an option to vibrate during calls if optional thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] resynx:
Only thing keeping me from replacing my stock messaging app is the smoothness right now. Looking forward to the development of the app!
[Android Apps and Games] jackattack:
I love this app but I keep getting notifications of "New MMS Received" but there are no new messages in Sliding Messaging or the stock app. Basically, the message is just gone.
[Android Apps and Games] :
I've switched off notifications for the stock messaging app and hidden it from the app drawer, and now I'm using Sliding Messaging as my default messaging app. Works flawlessly, it's very smooth and appealing. What can I say, I don't even have any feature requests because the app already provides me with all I need :D
[Android Apps and Games] Peacen1k:
Coming along great, but needs to be much smoother in scrolling and switching between various panes.
[Android Apps and Games] cbprod:
i get the same problem
[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
To the people who use this app over their stock SMS app.

Please give me insight to why you use this app over the stock. It's it the colors/customization? The sliding feature? What is it?

[Android Apps and Games] Tom-Helge:
I'm quoting my self to make sure that you actually did see my post here klinkdawg. Did you see it?
[Android Apps and Games] mchu6am4:
It's just different with lots of customisation...seems to be more inline with Google design guidelines!
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Just because it isn't right for you doesn't mean it isn't for others ;) on my phone it is smoother and quicker than stock and that's why I made it. For those of us that dont use MMS much it has almost everything it needs (and the next update will be one you guys all can really appreciate I think, should be huge, added a ton of things and still have some ideas in mind to improve speed of startup that will be greatly appreciated).
[Android Apps and Games] stg13:
The sliding feature is what pulled me in but to me, it is smoother than stock and has great dev support (which is worth quite a bit). I also like all of the settings / customization as well.
[Android Apps and Games] Link_of_Hyrule:
It's almost the same as the Google talk app that's why i lobe it to have the same experience for Google talk and texting if only there was another app with the same design for facebook lol.
[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
What? When did I state it wasn't for me? I'm simply asking why people prefer it over stock. I have paid for the pro version and use it.

Little defensive are we? Chill...

2nd time i have to quote myself, because i haven't got any answers yet on my questions so far.

Could you answer me on my questions here klinkdawg?
[Android Apps and Games] Link_of_Hyrule:
I think people had similar issues but I'm pretty sure it's been resolved.
[Android Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
I'm using it on S3Mini and it is very smooth and fast.

I use it daily as my default messaging app and I rarely use MMS so that's not a biggy for me.

The features, design, look and feel of it all win it for me.
[Android Apps and Games] Raverlook:
Wow..

new unique applications for typing and reading messages
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
I have it set to jump to the first position because isn't there where your new sent message should be at? Unless your conversations are being displayed out of order, but I can't imagine why that would happen.
[Android Apps and Games] jkoch35:
Known bug, read the forums.

I've noticed that on my phone the use of the back button can sometimes trigger this bug. Simply closing the app and reopening solves for me.

Btw, a simple Google search of 'sliding messaging wrong contact' yielded the results you were looking for..

[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:

- Received message animation (Pro only)

- Option to select speed of animations (Pro only)

- Quick text from notification option (Pro Only)

- Option to delete message from notification or popup

- Conversations list customization settings

- Resend message if failed option

- Speed improvements when sending and receiving messages

- Option to run as background service (experimental)

- Dashclock related fixes

- Tons of internal code rewrites for bug fixes
[Android Apps and Games] mchu6am4:
Excellent, thanks...keep up the good work and don't forget to give some of my suggestions a consideration as I don't normally suggest things willy nilly.... :)
[Android Apps and Games] SportingChap:
Adding a new issue to my list:

Sliding Messaging Pro doesn't respect locked messages. At first I thought this was just a Handcent feature, but after seeing it in stock app, I realize it's not. Stock and Handcent can lock/unlock messages, and neither will delete locked messages. (There is an override checkbox in stock app to delete locked messages.) Sliding Messaging Pro has no lock/unlock feature, and also deletes messages with no respect to whether it is locked or not.

Previous issues not addressed or acknowledged posted here and here.
[Android Apps and Games] Link_of_Hyrule:
Can't wait for the new update looks awesome :)
[Android Apps and Games] raymond4:
Hey klinkdawg I think u should make a Facebook app with the sliding features I would like to see it
[Android Apps and Games] athdaraxen:
Bug report!

I was answering a text message through my notifications and it popped up with an old message instead of the one that just came, then when I clicked the little checkmark to close it out it brought me too the home screen where I went and opened the app, the new message was no where to be found. Not even in the stock.

Also still receiving duplicates of messages.

[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
I've got enough on my plate still with this app ;) haha not a big Facebook fan either, i don't use it anymore.

[Android Apps and Games] :
Hey clink, are you working on making it so we can see more than just one message in quick reply? I would love that.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
yes i'm hoping to get around to that soon actually. but it will probably end up being after mms unless i cant get mms figured out.
[Android Apps and Games] les02jen17:
Any chance for dual-sim support in the near future? :D
[Android Apps and Games] dialmformostyn:
Any chance of an option to allow sliding to access the full message/conversation list, but removing the ability to slide to New Message? I use the contacts list a lot, as a consequence I rarely need to write a message from scratch and find myself accidentally swiping into New Message.

I can't believe how far this app has come in such a short space of time - hat off to the dev for sticking with it and taking this app so far.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
I've tried to do that, but it just isn't possible with the library I'm using to create the menus.
[Android Apps and Games] deathblade:
Do you think you could disable the new message button when the swipe to create new message is possible ( allowing more space to show the contact info in the action bar)
[Android Apps and Games] dialmformostyn:
Another idea I've had (again could be completely impossible/unfeasible/unwanted) but I've found my thumb wanting to fling away the quick reply pop-up. It'd be a nice touch to be able to swipe away, or preferably in my view, to long-press and throw away upward, much as can do on many JB launcher homescreens to remove unwanted icons.
[Android Apps and Games] stg13:
Any possibility to have the ability to have the conversation list show starting with the newest at the bottom of the screen and then working up?
[Android Apps and Games] SportingChap:
I'm trying not to be negative, but this is a bit frustrating. I take the time to test, take notes, look to see if items have been reported yet, then type out the post(s). This is for an app I've paid for in order to encourage development. I don't require a direct line to the dev or any acknowledgement of my findings (although it would certainly be nice). But then someone bangs out one quick line about something I already brought up days ago, and you reply to him. Definitely not feeling any love here, except from some fellow testers thanking my posts. (Cheers to y'all!)
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Well some features are easy to implement others not. Put your self in the developers position. He get hundreds of PMs, mails, comments and he has also his own timeline. he can not answer everybody.

So just be patient, this app has an amazing development, but everything step by step,
[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
Yep. Seems like this app keeps getting more development on other aspects but mms. It's been over a month since I purchased this app thinking there would be an update or progress on mms, but none that I see. Is there a way you can slow down development on other features and work on mms so us people who paid for the app get their main request fulfilled. The app looks good so far but is missing that big feature many of us have been waiting for. :(

[ NEXUS⁴ / VANILLA ROOTBOX / APEX PRO / TAPATALK ]
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
To be completely honest with you, I have been working on mms in tiny little steps. In reality, the thing holding me back from ceasing development of other features is the fact that after I begin mms fully, I could possibly get so frustrated with things that I will give up entirely and stop updating all together. I don't like giving up on things, but the more research that I do on mms, the more worried I am that's what's going to happen. I've reached out to people for help and done everything I can to learn how to do it and I'm still almost clueless. So that's what i'm worried about and i'd rather finish with an app that does one thing extremely well (sms) and another only partially well (reading mms). get where i'm coming from? I get you guys are frustrated, but believe me, so am I and i'm doing my best here with what i've got.

didn't mean to make you feel left out. Just because I don't respond doesn't mean that I don't read these things though...
[Android Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
That's how it should be!

I'm very impressed with how far this app has come in the short space of time.

Always gets me when people pay a small amount for an app and expect the developer to listen and do their every demand.

Support him and be patient.

He is doing a great job!
[Android Apps and Games] jackattack:
I'm not sure why anybody thinks they are "owed" something because they bought the app. You paid for what worked when you bought it. Anything extra is a gift.
[Android Apps and Games] foxehkins:
I get that point of view but we paid for an app that was still in development. MMS has become a social norm now imo, so much so that it is implied that you would have working MMS when using a messaging application. Not bashing the dev since I understand it takes work. Hell I know 0 about coding so I appreciate it but to hear that he might get so frustrated he would give up all together is disheartening. I don't really think that's something you should be telling everyone since I'm sure more than half of those that have paid are expecting a core feature like MMS to be working fully at some point.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Android Apps and Games] CaptainGoSlow:
Would you prefer, that he lie and say it's coming along nicely? That he then abandon the app anyway and disappears silently from xda?

At least he's being honest about the problem he's facing with MMS and has been looking for help. In the meantime the app has come a long way and is more stable than ever!
[Android Apps and Games] mchu6am4:
I think many of you are right to let Klink develop the app as best as he sees it and I think this app will become even bigger hit than it currently is...

Although I do not use mms feature myself (it's costly through the networks) and use internet based services for sending video and pictures such as WhatsApp etc, I would like this feature one day if Klink can get it working..

Kink...keep up the good work as you've got a winner of an app here and it wouldn't surprise me if you have over 100k downloads in the near future...:)
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
I do not believe it you folks are talking and making a hassle for an amount less than one dollar? You bought an app in early beta phase with NO i repeat NO guaranty that MMS will work 100% for now and no promised date when it will work. More this is mentioned and declared clearly by the developer in the Google market. So stop crying and give the developer time, he has done a big job so far.

Incredible!!! If not please buy your self a Star Tac for 12 USS.

[Android Apps and Games] SportingChap:
Wasn't trying to start a revolution or anything. Like I said, just frustrated with the (perceived? lack of) communication. The dev doesn't owe me anything, especially not for 99 cents. I love the app or I wouldn't be following this thread!

May I suggest editing the original post and keeping a "known bugs" list? It would also be an easy way to post status reports on specific features.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Thank you guys for trying to help! I have found these articles before, but most of them send the MMS by just invoking the stock app, which means it can't be a standalone app if I do it that way. The one that is most important is the 2nd and that's what I have been trying to do lately. Just have yet to be able to get it to work! I also tried out the third option a couple weeks ago and it didn't work at all... Didn't do anything, I think it worked on older versions of android but not anymore.

I think for the time being present a solution which needs the stock MMS app. I think for now its ok and calms down a lot of people. Later work on the independent solution ;) Most users are not rooted, they will have the stock app running anyway.

What do you think folks?

finally got around to putting the update out, its a big one. here's the full changelog for those of you who haven't already seen it:

- Option to run as background service - greatly increases startup speed

- Option to delete message from notification or popup

- Conversations list customization settings

- Resend message if failed option

- Speed improvements when sending and receiving messages

- Delete old messages option

- Dashclock related fixes

- Tons of internal code rewrites for bug fixes

Pro Only:

- Received message animation

- Option to select speed of animations

- Quick text from notification option

Should be out within the next couple hours for you guys to download. I HIGHLY suggest turning on the run as background service option, you will see a performance boost and so far for me almost zero hit to the battery. Its not perfect yet, every once in a while a conversation will show up out of order for some reason, but when you leave the app and go back in then they will be correctly sorted. its a big feature and will certainly make those of you will slow load times happy. I haven't been able to test on a phone with tons of messages though, so someone will have to let me know how it goes.

[Android Apps and Games] CaptainGoSlow:
New update is running good here so far, I've disabled the stock app and using in memory option. Although, it was already flying for me.

Only issues I have, are the app still sticks on sending if back is used, even with it set in background. Also, using the new quick text option, when I click the To field, it causes the keyboard to cover the text section, so I have to close the keyboard to get to this. Anyone else have this issue?

I'm using SwiftKey if that could in anyway cause it?

Cheers as always for the updates and time put in, great app! :)
[Android Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
A strange bug, everytime I reboot my phone this message pops up, but nothing in inbox about it.

Clicking on View Conversation just takes you to a new message compose.
[Android Apps and Games] CaptainGoSlow:
Now you say that, I had a blank message showing on restart from anonymous. It cause FC everyone I opened SM. I had to delete it using stock and then clear data and been fine since. I'll do a restart layer and if comes back, I'll send logcat over.

If I use view conversation button on pop up (none JB) it goes to compose new message with the persons number at top.

I'm liking the new glow when a message is received as you're replying to one in conversation list instead of it jumping to it.

Do you use the back button to exit the app prior to the messaging having changed to sent?

Thats weird. Doesn't happen to me... Try unchecking the override stock option and rebooting and seeing if it still happens. I don't think it will...
