Odp: [APP][Free] Sliding Messaging

When we'll receive update? Really wait for DashClock support :)
[Android Apps and Games] Djhalloween:
Foreign characters

I love this app. The only problem i got is foreign characters and 160 sms length. Hoppe it will be fix soon
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
coming soon ;) still working on things though, lots of speed improvements for me at least in the next version and still more that i want to add. Update may not come until the end of the week, i really want to push out as much lag in the app as i possibly can and school has been busy! sorry for making you wait!
[Android Apps and Games] athdaraxen:
Klink, I mean no dis-respect but I have to ask are you doing anything about what me and Link_of_Hyrule have been talking about for pages now? I have yet to see a reply from you and I just want to make sure its not being missed. Its a pretty bad problem considering its affecting the main purpose of the app, SMS.

I mean if you can't fix it or don't think its a problem with your app then that's fine. I just wanna know what I need to do. I don't know what I can do to show you the issue but if there is a way I will gladly do it. Its just hard on me since despite receiving them and seeing them in my notifications bar they just disappear in your app and in the stock app (when I open your app through the notification bar as I don't use the quick reply pop up anymore as it caused it more). It wouldn't be so bad if they at least showed in the stock app but the messages are simply disappearing. If I uninstall your app and go back to stock I never have the issue, its only when using your app, I've also tried other SMS apps and cannot repeat the problem. I re-installed the app and am running the newest version of it.

Once again I mean no dis-respect and I do very much love your app, its one of the best SMS apps out there. I simply want to help and report bugs so they can be fixed and the app will be the best of the best!
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
try turning on the override stock option in settings. that forces sliding messaging to save the messages to the phone instead of allowing the stock app to do it. It sounds to me like the messages are getting lost before being saved, and i have no idea why that would be happening.

in other news, i've got it working as fast, if not a little bit faster than the stock app on my nexus 4. Now thats with 9 conversations and 1200 messages, so i cant make promises that it will fly for those of you with an ungodly amount of messages, but it will be faster. couple more things left to add and then i will be updating within the next couple days when i find time.
[Android Apps and Games] Beast84:
Definitely needs a lock feature for messages you don't wanna delete
[Android Apps and Games] athdaraxen:
Thank you so much. I really appreciate the reply!

I'll try the stock override and see if that helps. I'll let you know what happens soon. It's really weird they are just disappearing but I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually, or something lol. Once again thanks for for taking the time to reply. I know you are busy and this means a lot. Keep up the great work! I'll be rooting for you!
[Android Apps and Games] Link_of_Hyrule:
I'll try doing that again but up to this point that option didn't seem to help. If you need another logcat I can get you one in the way you want it done all I did was mess around in the app while eclipse was running and copy the logcat to a text so idk if it had what you needed or not. I understand you are busy with school but I'm definitely here to help with anything I can. You can PM me or message me on Google Talk whenever.

s**t only for running 4.2 devices
[Android Apps and Games] john.fast:
when i receive longer messages, i noticed its starting a new conversation with that person (so there is 2), and the timestamp is showing a completely wrong time (69.12.31). anyone else encounter this?
[Android Apps and Games] mchu6am4:
I'm sure more features will come with time...let's get the basics right and working for all before adding too many features as the code will only get more complicated to fix bugs etc...
[Android Apps and Games] Link_of_Hyrule:
Even as a system app with that option enabled it's having the same problem also when I create a new conversation with someone after I send my text the conversation disappears and never shows up on the list. Another problem I am having is if it's not installed as a system app the contact pictures don't show up. EDIT: If I delete the thread in the other messaging app it has the messages show that I sent to people but when they reply they disappear again. I'm on the paid version so idk if that makes a difference or not with the version.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Ok, I finished up the next update and it is flying fast for me :) I'm going to keep testing it and you should see an update tomorrow sometime. heres the changelog:

- DashClock Widget Support

- Grey text color option

- Option to use Android Emojis instead of iOS

- Minor changes to date displayed per message

- Speed improvements

- Bug Fixes

Oh yeah, and I also removed the limit messages and limit conversations options as they are no longer necessary, you will get exactly the same load time either way :)

[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Nice update, can not wait to install and through away GoSMS ;)
[Android Apps and Games] fjsferreira:
It's only needing delivery report icon confirmation on messages like stock app (it's very annoying not knowing if my old messages were delivered, because most of the times I forget to wait for the toast notification) . It's the only reason I don't use it right now.
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Essential!!!! Icon for in progress, sent or failed!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] athdaraxen:
I definitely agree with these two here. :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Well, if successfully sent we need no icon ;)
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
hoping for next update to get a much better delivery report system up and going. that will be the priority i think.
[Android Apps and Games] deathblade:
Can't wait for the up coming update sounds great
[Android Apps and Games] ..Cory..:
OMG :D thanks for the helpful response! I'm sure klinkdawg will be able to figure out the problem from the THREE WORDS you posted! :)

[Android Apps and Games] SnowKing25:
Just wanted to say thanks for the app, its a breath of fresh air to have a great messaging app with the swipe gestures like this (I love gestures) as well as a great Holo/stock/AOSP look. thanks again man!
[Android Apps and Games] fjsferreira:
If they are not received, there's no icon also, and relying on toast notifications only is just not practical, because if I fail to catch those for whatever reason, then I'm left in the dark as to wether my SMS went through or not. For someone that has poor network reception, I simply don't know if other people received my messages at all. And worst of all, messages sent with sliding messaging, when checked in stock app, don't show a delivered icon there also. Very annoying in my opinion. All other apps have that, including stock.

Apart from that, great app, and, of course, I've already bought it a lot of versions ago :) keep it up.

[Android Apps and Games] :
Seriously, notifications for message sent failure are absolutely essential.
[Android Apps and Games] Beast84:
I believe MMS should be your priority as that has been the number one request since this app has been out. People have paid just for this feature & been waiting with many other features & options added before a fully functioning MMS has been released. I know I'm not the only one who thinks this is an incomplete app without it
[Android Apps and Games] chayes627:
While I agree with you, I think having any bugs ironed out and delivery report upgraded should be first since they seen easier to fix then MMS. For the time being I'm alright with being able to receive mms and having to use stock for sending them. Klink is in school so I'm sure time is limited.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
i agree that it is an important feature, but i would rather iron out bugs first. mms is going to take forever to implement, so i would rather fix everything else that needs fixed first. not everyone uses mms (me included) so i would rather finish a fully completed sms app first.

also, just so you guys know, i tested on my friends phone who has an s3 with about 15,000 messages and it cut about 2 seconds off of the load time, so its at about 5 seconds now. Maybe not what all of you were expecting, but still an improvement that it can load every single message in less time than before with limited messages. step in the right direction at least.
[Android Apps and Games] tejadakenneth:
im experiencing problems;

1. when i open the app my messages are limited in 5 although i uncheck the limit messages. and when i load all messages, close the app and back again still, i get 5.

2. when i send message to non-contacts no. in phone then use the app for messaging it shows only 109digit no. instead of 11 digit no. example 09351234567 then when i chose the app to send message the firs 2-digit no. are not included.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
you wont have to worry about the first after tomorrows update, limiting is no longer an option even as it doesn't make a difference anymore.

the second one is interesting though, do you mean you are choosing that number to message through the people app and then it cuts off the number when you see it in the new message left side menu?
[Android Apps and Games] mchu6am4:
A lot of UK operators charge for delivery reports!

---------- Post added at 06:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 AM ----------

Agree...
[Android Apps and Games] tejadakenneth:
yap that's right. it's weird though. and one thing i get error sending failed why?
[Android Apps and Games] quinte:
I don't know if its suppose to do it...

But when I load more messeages from a conversations by pulling down. It scrolls down to the button of the conversation again, so I have to scroll up to see what I wanted to se instead of just staying where I was pulling down ?

If you understand what I mean :) ?
[Android Apps and Games] Beast84:
I agree. Bugs should be ironed out. What I was stating is that feature wise, MMS should be number one. Bugs should always be first. But I see a lot of new features that I believe should be on the back burner till MMS is done. You promised MMS with a paid version & I have yet to see it. But I see new things added almost daily.
[Android Apps and Games] KYT:
pa·tience

/ˈpāSHəns/

Noun

The capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset.

Synonyms

forbearance - endurance - sufferance - solitaire

Everybody wants something, and they all think their needs are the most important.

If full MMS implementation was easy, klink would already have it in there.

As it is now, you can see your MMS messages. If you need to send one, just send it from the gallery, or from your camera app once you take the picture. You are not the only one that doesn't have the ability to send MMS.

Now, there is something I would like :p

Klink, what is the ideal image dimensions for the background images?

Sure every phone is different. I'm sure we can come up with a formula to calculate image size.

I'm using an E4GT @ 800x480

We know the width will need to be 480.

The height should = ScreenHeight - (StatusBar + NavigationBar + TitleBar + BottomTextBoxThing)

Are the values for the elements between the ( ) absolute (ex. 40px) or relative (5%)?

Hmm.. portrait squishes and landscape stretches. Crap.

Does the app know how to tile an image for backgrounds? or can it align to middle center?

Just non-critical thoughts :cool: Keep it up man!
[Android Apps and Games] Link_of_Hyrule:
Actually as far as the unease goes android automatically adjusts elements by its self without coding for each device except you might want a tablet optimized version which doesn't really apply to a texting app.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
Right now if just stretches the image to whatever the size of the listview is, which is the screen width and the screen height minus around 100 pixels or so I believe (not at my computer now so I don't know exactly). I may try and change how this works in the future, but not really worries about it right now.
[Android Apps and Games] KYT:
I was just playing with settings to see if I could break it. This latest release is much more stable than any previous I've tried.

Usually if I make more than one change to the UI, the app crashes and most of the time locks up the whole system.

This time I made several changes to the theme, transparency and added 2 background images (1 to each view'list) and it didn't lock up.

Making progress! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
found time to add a better sending system to the update today, you guys asking for send confimation will be much happier now :) first message goes to "sending..." and then once it has been sent is changes to displaying the time, just like the stock app does.
[Android Apps and Games] KaliS-Pugilist:
I noticed that I get this error when sending messages from my dialer/phone:

"Message sent using invalid number of digits. Please resend using 10 digit number or valid short code. Msg 2114"

It seems that the first number of the 10 digits gets cut off somehow. You have to actually select the contact in the drop down list to get the contact # with 10. digits.
[Android Apps and Games] dodgebizkit:
Does anyone use this alongside swipe dialer?

Why can't u go by the time stamp in messages? If I sent a message after I send it I can tell when I sent it. Don't care if they read it.

[Android Apps and Games] chayes627:
I do! I think klink and mikey should get together and share each others knowledge and design cues
[Android Apps and Games] fjsferreira:
For some reason, when I take the time and work to write a message, I would like to know that the person on the other at least has received it.

Also, sent is different from received, people seem to be confusing this.
[Android Apps and Games] moosc:
Hmm OK I'm not anal about that. I see message was sent at the time. If the other person wants to respond to fine if not no big deal. But at least by the time stamp I know was message was sent.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
[Android Apps and Games] fjsferreira:
Again, your message may appear as sent but, for whatever reason (for me it's the poor network that I'm on and most of my contacts), doesn't get through. It's not about the other person reading it, it's about knowing if the message really arrived at the other end, which frequently doesn't where I live.

update will be out in a couple hours, here is the final changelog:

- DashClock Widget Support

- Grey text color option

- Option to use Android Emojis instead of iOS

- Option to display emoticons both with and without noses

- Minor changes to date displayed per message

- Better handling of messages when sending

- Different handling of strip unicode feature (replaces characters not compatable with 160 char sms with ? again, i will be trying to add equivelent characters later but haven't been able to find a list of them yet)

- Speed improvements

- Bug Fixes
[Android Apps and Games] fjsferreira:
Seems like a great update. BTW, I don't know if this will help with the unicode conversion:

[Android Apps and Games] :
"- Better handling of messages when sending"

What exactly does that mean?
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Pro 4.35

So far so good.

Question:

I enabled the Popup reply. This only appears when the phone is awake and the screen unlocked. When screen is locked and phone sleeping, message is received and i unlock the screen -> there is no popup reply window. On Purpose?

Ah please change back the "Delete all message" in the conversation menu to "Delete THIS conversation". Leave the "Delete all messages" it in the conversation list menu.

... and still have American date format instead of European as configured in phone system.

Thanks again and btw. start up is smooth for now.
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
it will tell you when the message is sending and then display the sent timestamp.

im not really sure why the popup doesnt show behind the lockscreen for some people, it does for me when i have the option enabled... hmm i will look into it. I don't want to add date formats though because thinking back to when i had those settings in there, it made everything cluttered in my opinion. also, most people just use the local date format which is how it is formatting it now... since the messages only show the time anyways unless scrolling way up, is this really necessary?
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Well i have European date format configured in my system and it shows in SM the American date format. 24hs format is working well. Btw i have under EACH message the time and date!! Erased data and cleaned cash after the update to 4.35, no change.

---------- Post added at 01:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:49 AM ----------

One more problem.

SM does not show self send messages under no circumstances. Tested a lot. They stay as unread in Stock app until marked as read there. Even than they do not show in SM. Not a big deal as I normally never send SMS to my self.
[Android Apps and Games] :
It would seem that most of the problems people are reporting are coming from non-AOSP phones. This app seems to be optimized for AOSP mostly. Tell me if I'm wrong :/
[Android Apps and Games] kensomanpow:
Can't find it on market.

Edit: found it. FC on app start. Galaxy S3 4.1.2.
[Android Apps and Games] CaptainGoSlow:
Hi,

My date/time seems to be working and just the time for ones sent today and full date for anything before. Although it's wrong format for UK, but don't tend to notice generally.

However, if I exit out of the app whilst it says sending, it will then stick on sending. If I restart the phone, they go to saying error, but the recipient will have got it. Just to clarify, it only gets stuck on sending if I use back button. If I press home, it still updates the time. Its not affecting them going, just seems to be status freezes.

Im on stock 4.0.4.

Excellent updates overall, no slow down and rarely FC. Only FC I get is if I click my own pic and it crashes contacts, but wouldn't normally need to pull my own card up, just hit it in error. Also still get long text in showing their number repeated rather than contact name.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Well that would be every Android phone except the Nexus series which are the only true AOSP phones. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] deathblade:
Had it working great on a cm based rom
[Android Apps and Games] klinkdawg:
You are 100% correct actually. Anything based off aosp or cyanogenmod I know for a fact will be faster then touhwiz phones at least. Those are the two types of phones that I have tested on and I have found out that touch wiz at least stores their messages a little differently and so there is a giant extra step in there that takes a lot of time and I haven't been able to find a way around it yet. I can't really say anything about sense phones, but also will always work the best with the app and unfortunately I can't find any ways around that yet.
[Android Apps and Games] chreddy:
Since I've installed the latest update, I've got a huge problem. Whenever I write a message in english with Strip Unicode turned off (haven't tried in english with this option turned on) everything looks correct. But when I write a message in danish with the danish foreign charaters Æ, Ø and Å (still with Strip Unicode off) my message gets split multiple times. I think it might be after every 160 characters, as it also splits in the middle of words.

If I turn Strip Unicode on and send a message in Danish (still with Æ, Ø and Å), the foreign charaters aren't sent. They are replaced by spaces.

For now this is the only thing that keeps me from uninstalling GO SMS :(

Oh, also a little bug I've found (and I think that I might have posted it here before, but with no reply):

When I press the menu button and the menu comes up (the one with Settings, Delete all conversation etc) the text looks just like it's supposed to. Then if I go to the settings, all text (in the settings) looks way too big (bigger than everywhere else). If I then return to the conversation list, and press the menu button, the text in the menu (with Settings, Delete all, etc) is also bigger, in fact it's just as big as in the settings.

Also the text in the Title Bar becomes bigger.

The only solution I've found to fix this, is to go to the system settings and make the system font bigger and then smaller again. But it's very annoying to do that all the time :(

I really hope you'll take a look at these bugs very soon.

Other than that: Keep up the great work! :)

- Security fix allowing lockscreen to be unlocked with popup turned on

- Options on how to display delivery reports

you should all see the update within the next couple hours. and here is an example of what i mean for group messaging, it is getting there at least :) still need mms though first :/
[Android Apps and Games] john.fast:
I'm still having an issue with the app, and after reading the thread, im not sure it has been adressed yet. When i am in a text conversation with someone, and their text is longer (over 160 characters), it starts a new conversation with that person, and the date of that incoming longer message is incorrect (it shows december 31st '69). Im not sure if this is something i can fix on my end, or if its a problem with the app. Is anyone experienced this or having this issue? Thanks for any help.... ASIDE from that, im really enjoying the app, and I really like the added dashclock extension. Nice Job!
[Android Apps and Games] deathblade:
it would be helpful for people that dont know about this thread to report bugs and such if you posted a link to this thread in the description or something on google play, also the only problem im having is the when i recieve a mms message or a group message (which of course uses the same format as far as recieving goes ) it changes the name in the conversation to my number and i have to go into the stock messaging app to see who it was (its fixed till i get another one by starting a new message to that person/persons) also the theme seems to break in this new update sometimes when going into the settings, it has a white background with light gray-ish text will post a picture in a bit
