Version 0.6

Messing around on my phone today I had an epiphany, did some research, and discovered a way to very easily lead to SMS threads, which this time includes Hangouts. Hangouts did not support the way this app used to use to lead to SMS threads. Much easier than having to use notification APIs or anything of the sort.

Version 0.6 (in OP) uses this. It also fixed a whole bunch of bugs I came across while testing, many having to do with what happened when there were more than 3 active SMS threads.
[Android Apps and Games] CKRevel:
Awesome! I wondered why this was not built in with stock Dashclock!! Unfortunately this extension does not work with my Galaxy S3 running stock 4.3. I get a constant "Dashclock has stopped working error". Hopefully we can get it working for Samsung devices...will be watching this thread...
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Yes, the same thing seems to be happening on my dad's phone when I tried it out briefly. Unfortunately in the brief period of time I had it I was not able to get the drivers working in time. I'll take a look at it again soon.

i need for 4.1.2 stock rom
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
No can do, DashClock only works on 4.2+.

Also, pyler has merged some updated Slovak translations into git. These will be available in the next update, which will also fix the errors on TouchWiz.
[Android Apps and Games] Lorgios:
Looks like a cool extension for dashclock but always crashs on my samsung Galaxy S4.

Do You have a Solution for trat peoblem? I'm using better dashclock on Nova launcher and widgetlocker.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] CallumMarks77:
Dude how is this app still not on the play store... Been using the app for ages now, since even before you added multi panels that I asked for all that time ago... It really deserves a place on the play store!
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Version 0.7 has been added to OP. Fixes this problem that Samsung stock ROM users have been having, tested on my dad's S3 running stock 4.3. Hopefully fixes it on HTC Sense devices as well, but I have no means of testing.

V0.7 also includes pyler's updated Slovak translations.

I'll definitely do it sometime. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Lorgios:
Sorry version 0.7 didn't solved the problems. It always crashs when I wann to open the settings of viewer. Hope you fix this.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Nah that was a universal problem (I had it too). Seems like the exported APK was corrupted or something. Download again.
[Android Apps and Games] Lorgios:
Thanks Note IT works. So cool extension. Now bring it to the play store!
[Android Apps and Games] kthle:
First of all I want to say thank you so much for this extension! What I especially like about it is that it leads directly to the message thread, even though all the other developers say that extensions can't do that due to the limitations of the Dashclock API.

I recently switched to Hangouts as my default messaging app. My city offers this service where you can text a bus stop number and you'll receive a reply with the bus stop times, and I take advantage of this service to test out messaging apps and extensions. For some reason when I receive a text message from the bus service, it displays the contact name ("Calgary Transit") and the message contents. However, when I receive a text from an actual person, SMS Viewer only displays their number, no contact name or message. I never had this issue back when I used my phone's default messaging app. Any idea what's going on?

If it helps, I have a Galaxy S3, but am running custom ROM Liquidsmooth 2.37 (Android 4.3) on it.
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Are the messages your friend is sending actually MMS instead of SMS? I haven't implemented reading MMS into the app. Regular SMS work fine for me on AOSP roms.
[Android Apps and Games] kthle:
Nope, just regular SMS. But someone just texted me and their contact name and message appeared properly, so I'm guessing it has something to do with where their contact information is stored?
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Possibly? See what results you have over the next messages coming in. I've never noticed that if a contact doesn't exist in the contacts it doesn't show the message contents.
[Android Apps and Games] kthle:
So after deleting and re-adding my friends' contact info, as well as clearing my SIM contacts and re-exporting them, I haven't been able to find anything that worked. For now I've reverted back to my previous messaging app. Thank you for your quick replies!
[Android Apps and Games] nightfishing:
First off Thank you for this extension; it is easily my most indispensable extension.

Also thanks for continuing to develop and support it (I came here to redownload 0.6 to resolve issues with 0.7 but was happy to find the info about the corrupted export. ) New version is back in business.

If you ever get bored (LOL) a version of the gmail extension that behaved the same way would be awesome; similar effect can be done with Dash Notifier, but there is no control over which account/conversation it opens (just opens the gmail app in it's last opened state) .

---------- Post added at 01:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 AM ----------

Did you redownload the 0.7 apk?

I had similar issues with the original upload of 0.7. I got contact names but no subject.

Newer upload works fine.

---------- Post added at 01:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 AM ----------

actually still having the missing subject issue with 0.7 (worked for a few messages and then stopped)

reinstalled 0.6 and subject reappears.

[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
I've actually wanted that extension to be able to lead where the notification points to - I've heard that it's some sort of limitation of DashClock but I swear I saw the option to read where the notification leads to from it. (While I made 0.6, I was originally worried I would have to do this for compatibility with hangouts)

Does it work under some circumstances but not others? I haven't had any problems with it at all...Occasionally it will have trouble refreshing but other than that I don't have anything.
[Android Apps and Games] nightfishing:
It worked when I first reinstalled the new 0.7 but then stopped showing the text (Sender was still showing)

Went back to 0.6 and haven't had any issues.
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Keep track of if it and see if it starts working randomly. I'm not having the same issue so I have no means of spying the cause.
[Android Apps and Games] matdestr:
Will it work with Ninja sms , i'm not using the stock sms app on my phone.. And the default sms extension in dashclock doesn't show my sms then.

[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
It should, try it out.

Any chance those messages that first worked weren't from iPhones, but then the ones that didn't work were from iPhones? That's what I've come across today when an iPhone-toting friend messaged me, and my old free texting number's texts still show up.
[Android Apps and Games] nightfishing:
Nope. Some from Android (I assume stock messaging) and my test texts are sent from Google Voice Web interface. Both are working (still) on 0.6 although I get a number not a contact name for the ones from Voice.
[Android Apps and Games] 1/4 Life:
I get proper contact names but text content of just '0' when an iPhone user texts me. Google voice and other droids work as intended.

This is on TouchWiz though.
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay, and inconveniences caused by 0.7. I think I have fixed it, but I'll need you to test it out. In my limited testing, it appears to have fixed the problem. Check first post for the 0.8 update.

What caused it, you ask? I finally figured it out. It seemed like the code that reads the body of the texts from the SMS threads cannot deal with either the spaces or the -'s in the phone number given to it (which for some reason, does not always have those problems in it). So I made it replace all the spaces and -'s with nothing before using it to search for unread messages. Here's what I did if you're even more curious.

edit: I still have problems dealing with contact name resolving. I'll figure it out soon. (I have to dig into my new G2 first!)
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Version 0.8.1 has been added. Fixed even more situations when contact name would not resolve.

So I looked into this. DashClock can only set Intents as tile launch actions, and you receive a PendingIntent from the notification service, and there's no way to convert them.
[Android Apps and Games] CKRevel:
Awesome app!

Recently switched from stock Galaxy S3 SMS app to Textra and now no more SMS previews in dashclock... :(

Any way to get support for Textra SMS... would be so awesome!

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Just did a bit of poking around. It looks like I can't, unfortunately. Textra appears to use its own system of marking messages read, so it marks the messages as read in the system (which SMS Viewer uses) as it imports them into its interface. This means that SMS Viewer never sees the messages as unread and thus never shows up.
[Android Apps and Games] CKRevel:
Ahhh Dang... that's one annoying thing about android. Everyone's system does something different... Thanks for looking though, much appreciated. Interesting enough, Textra has it's own dashclock extension however it only gives you missed message, no message body info... again :(
[Android Apps and Games] ninj3:
Message body does not display

Thanks for making this app! I'm amazed that no one else has incorporated this into other dashclock message apps. Seems like such an obvious thing to include!

I'm having an issue using it on my phone though. When I get a message, the sender ID shows fine, but the body itself is not shown. If I swap the positions in the settings so that the body shows on top, it comes up as just a "0", that's it. Has anyone come across this issue? I'd appreciate any help!

I'm using:

[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Does it happen on stock SMS?

I myself was actually in another country recently and got time to look at this. It seems like the contact system doesn't work very well unless you have the +[country code] in your contacts. (I noticed this while received US texts over Voice+ while in Italy)
[Android Apps and Games] dorqus:
This app is great - thank you for making it! I tried a bunch of different programs/lockscreens/etc trying to be able to see my incoming texts when my screen is locked - and this was does it all! Your work is very much appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] madmick666:
Archived unread messages

Great app so thanks loads for creating it! One problem I seem to have is that archived unread sms are still shown. So if I get some sms spam from somewhere and I don't open it (i.e. the message itself is still unread) but right-swipe the thread then the count & preview on sms viewer still includes that message.

Is there a config anywhere where I can change this behaviour, or a way to delete them permanently?

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Is this in Hangouts? The same thing is happening for me in Hangouts. If you long press on the thread you can hit a delete button, which will hide it from SMS Viewer. When you archive it it's a problem in Hangouts that it doesn't set it as read, and the app can't tell if you archived it.
[Android Apps and Games] nightfishing:
Been facing a bit of a bug with the stock Messenger from 5.0.

Group messages don't get dismissed after reading and the option to "always" open in Messenger from DashClock isn't remembered.

"Normal" messages behave normally.

It would seem to be connected to theses messages not being marked as read reliably so it very well may be an issue with the Messenger app itself, but the stock DashClock Text Message viewer ignores the borked messages.
[Android Apps and Games] parkedraccoon:
Once I get access to 5.0 I'll take a look at it.
[Android Apps and Games] chris.wilcox:
This extension is working perfectly for me. I say put it on the Play Store. I searched there a couple times months ago and stumbled across this just now! Good work!
[Android Apps and Games] Kirinkunhime:
I'd also say you should put it on the play store :)

But I am currently facing a problem with the 0.8.1. Version and CM 10.3 on my P880 (Using the default CM SMS app)

It doesn't show the content of messages - when switchting sender/contents it just shows "1" as content - so I think it might be a bug regarding the reading the content of the SMS.

Keep up the good work! :)

I know there are plenty of threads like this out there but the reason I am making a new one is because I am looking for a fix which I have not been able to find so far.

Last night my phone was working perfectly fine with no problems. This morning I woke up to a warm dead phone that doesn't start, go into download or recovery mode, different batteries doe not work. I want to be able to get this phone working exactly how it was without wiping it or cleaning the data out I want all my apps there, pics, contacts etc to be there in the phone exactly how it was before it died for no reason.

Is there anything I can do to make the phone start working again?

It could also be an app. For example the installation of LBE Privacy Guard which worked fine on GingerBread caused a bootloop on Cyanogenmod 10.1 as it doesn't work on the newer versions.

If it is an app, it is most probably a root app.

Hi

So I tried to unlock the bootloader on my E973 Bell Optimus G by using the freegee package (folder) that someone put up. However, when I do follow every instruction and unlock the bootloader, and I try to go into fastboot (bootloader) mode by pressing volume up + power button, the screen goes blank (black). From there, if I try to reboot my phone, it does not reboot, and I have to unbrick it by flashing the stock KDZ file.

Any help? I even tried factory resetting and trying to exact same process again. Still no luck.

Any ideas or comments?

Hello everybody, I've had my T879 Note since December and now my charging port is broken. Word of advice dont let you kids play with your phone while its on the charger.

[HTC One S] syntropic:
I received a new replacement 1S a week ago. Three days ago—after I rooted it (though no SuperCID or S=off yet)—I got the notification for the 2.35 update. I searched here about this update and it seems overall that it it helpful. However, some people were concerned about an upgrade to hboot.

Since it seems that we have the ability to get s=off, a worry over an upgraded hboot would now be irrelevant, correct? I would rather not go through the whole process of unrooting, flashing stock recovery, etc. then dissembling the update, changing updating script, signing & rezipping, etc., etc. and instead just install the update and if it unroots, just re-flash TWRP and flash SuperSU.

Is it OK just to install the update and re-root?

Thank you...

If you're talking about the One S, you're in the wrong forum.

My apologies... Where did that get posted originally...? Oh well.

Edit: Apparently I was looking at the HTC One forum and forgot I was still there when I posted the above question.

But if anyone thinks I should have no problem flashing that update and re-rooting, let me know. It appears some improvements to WiFi were made, and I would like to install it without stressing about it.
[HTC One S] syntropic:
OK... well I figured out that I cannot install the update with TWRP as my current recovery. I didn't know that. I figured the update would just install its own recovery.

So.... I am reflashing stock recovery. I have it on my SD card... I did adb fasboot. The phone is in fastboot mode and fastboot devices shows my device.

So...(and this is driving me nuts), what is the path to the sdcard??? It always was /sdcard/. When did this change?????

In a fit of research I again tried other paths found around the web: /mnt/sdcard, /storage/sdcard/, /mnt/sdcard0/, /storage/sdcard0/ and just /sdcard0/, but adb tells me it cannot find my recovery .img.

I know that the name of the file is correct.... Can someone please tell me how I can do a listing of the filesystem through adb???

Thank you,

[EDIT]I downloaded another copy and installed it from my laptop... I guess this has all been a waste since I was going to go to S=off next and I guess I didn't realize you could flash partitions independently (or that the update was in that format). But anyway... I still am wondering if there is a way to use ADB to list the partitions... so I can determine the path to my SDCard..

I am running stock...it is still rooted, but that shouldn't matter. I might have disabled some bloatware but I never got around to uninstalling it before I decided to back up and quickly install this update.

I will try to look for a stock recovery and download it to my PC...I know that is a solution, but I don't really like not being able to access my SDcard from ADB. This has never been a problem in the past. Also... I see people talking about needing a "jellybean recovery"... Is this true??? Has the recovery changed (I presume this is an international 1S upgrade since stock is still ICS in the US). But does it matter???
