Despite hoverchat not being worked on anymore. It still works great for me but a few added features would make it perfect.
[Android Apps and Games] esincho:
I used to have a backup with the themes but it got deleted. Now I'm wanting to use this app again and no themes now. Lol
[Android Apps and Games] rmp5s:
I know I'm resurrecting a slightly dated thread, but I had seen in an earlier post that people were having issues sending MMS messages. I was wondering if a solution to this has since been discovered. Hoverchat is my favorite messaging app and I would really like to continue using it but it refuses to send pictures. Having to switch over to the default app to send a pic, then switch back afterwards is inconvenient to say the least.

Phone: Nexus 6P, rooted

ROM: Pure ROM, 6.0

Kernel: ElementalX

Switch to Yatta, this is long dead and Yatta works better anyhow I don't think anyone still runs this to help you unfortunately.
[Android Apps and Games] esincho:
I was just about to suggest this
[Android Apps and Games] dcwiker05:
I want an app that will make hangouts function like this then I'd be happy! Yatta is fantastic!
[Android Apps and Games] rmp5s:
Yatta. Got it. Thanks for the info. I'll check it out.

MMS Video Issues

Hello,

I recently started using HoverChat (and I am not sure if this is the right place to discuss this), and I am unable to properly receive messages that contain videos. I switched to Verizon Message+ and had them resend the message and it works properly. It shows up as a photo, but does not have the video information.

Is this a setting issue on my end, or an app bug?

I am using a Samsung Galaxy S7.
[Android Apps and Games] dmarden:
HoverChat was abandoned... some things will work, some won't. Nothing you'll be able to do about it, though, sadly. Used to be my favorite.

Use YAATA or Facebook Messenger instead.
[Android Apps and Games] sullivja:
Thanks for letting me know. I just started using it and was really impressed, so sad to see that it is dead.
[Android Apps and Games] d4c:
Dear developer,

Please could you update us on what your vision for this app is and what you are willing to incorporate via community suggestions? It would be great to see a list of what you want to introduce to the app in the future?

I'm sure others would like to see what it is that you have planned for this app, with tweaks will become truly great.

Thanks for all your hard work.

Dave
[Android Apps and Games] BillyD325:
Any idea when we can expect to see MMS support? I am itching to try this but I use MMS a lot and don't want to have to switch back and forth between this and GoSMS. I have been using GoSMS for awhile now and it has so much bloat it's pathetic, but it is the only SMS app i have found with good MMS support, popup messaging that you can customize properly, and theming (yeah I like theming lol) that works for me. I've tried Chomp, Handcent (even more bloated than GoSMS), and a few others but come back to GoSMS. This Ninja seems like it's even better, but I need MMS before I can make the switch.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] scalamanderr:
Not sure if this is a known bug or not.

While receiving a text on a locked phone (pattern), texts can be viewed from the emergency dialer. I'm not sure if this is a known bug or not but I figured I'd let you know. If this is fixed I will certainly purchase the full app.

This is on the promo version downloaded from this thread on a Verizon Galaxy Nexus running 4.2.2 (CM10.1.2).
[Android Apps and Games] arisgoku:
Hi all i bought this app and I enjoy it very much. Only one small issue. I have my contacts linked with their fb to get their pic from there. Although they show up fine in my phonebook on ninjasms it doesn't show their pics. I am on motorola xt910 on jb 4.1.2

And another thing. I know it's an android issue but someone can develop a floating resizeable keyboard to use? It sucks when the keyboard takes all the screen on landscape
[Android Apps and Games] BillyD325:
Try Kii Keyboard. Link is in my signature. I've been using it for some time and love it.
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
So this isn't an sms replacement app right? It's more of an add on? :)

---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

I believe kik integration would be really awesome :D
[Android Apps and Games] d4c:
As the app stands it is an add on. I hope that in the future this can indeed replace the stock messaging app on android.
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
+1! The chat heads are great but for some reason the messages don't store in my messaging app, whatever I send or receive using Ninja disappears O_o lol might be because it's called Ninja but idk lol
[Android Apps and Games] d4c:
Is kik your main messaging app? I think this app was only designed to store messages via the stock messaging app and not third party apps. Check your stock messaging for your messages...
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
No I use Textra SMS, :)... I do use KIK often though, but they have no SMS integration
[Android Apps and Games] CaptainGoSlow:
I think Textra uses its own database, so might be that? Have you still got stock installed to see if show there? I know Textra messages don't show in Sliding Messaging is all and its due to database.

HTH
[Android Apps and Games] Decimation:
Is it weird that this only works on contacts and not an ALL incoming text messages??
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
Maybe a little weird haha
[Android Apps and Games] Bzow:
It does work on all incoming messages. Just turn the "Choose all" option on. This will work with all messages, not just the ones from your contacts.
[Android Apps and Games] Exbruce:
2 things I would love to see :

1. Google Emoji support such as on sliding messaging

2. MMS support soon
[Android Apps and Games] Decimation:
ok so I got that down, but now when I get texts from my contacts they show up under odd ball phone numbers. What that all about?
[Android Apps and Games] gohamstergo:
is there any way to force Ninja messages to be marked as read? i routinely use MightyText to text from my computer when at home and even though MightyText marks messages as Read in the stock Messaging app, Ninja Sms stats unread. Ideas? (In the long run I'm hoping the dev fixes "Marked as Read Sync" [I've emailed them about it])
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
We will be adding normal threads view soon.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
Actually we have this point on our shortlist and it should be fixed soon.
[Android Apps and Games] gohamstergo:
oh, awesome! thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] esincho:
And a black & white theme. :D
[Android Apps and Games] gohamstergo:
Well, hopefully, custom themes will be added sometime ;)
[Android Apps and Games] xmitch:
I love it, but it would be great to add mms support
[Android Apps and Games] NguyenHuu:
Dev emailed me back saying that within few days will be a new version with lots of updates. I'm excited to see what they are.
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
Woooooo!

Sent from my Note 2, just in case you were Note-icing my sig ;)
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
We just pushed a new version of Ninja SMS with some cool new features and fixes:

★ Anti-NSA mode: Encrypt messages while sending to contacts so your phone carrier or government cannot read it... Ninja Style!

★ Option to save messages on your phone encrypted to prevent other apps reading your SMS messages

★ Emoji and Emoticons Support :)

★ Customize notification sound per contact

★ Added "copy" and "delete message" capability by long pressing on any message

★ Fixed notification sound when opening in non-collapsed mode

★ General bug fixes and improvements

The update should live within the next hour.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
Actually that is the plan exactly ;)
[Android Apps and Games] d4c:
Hi dev, is there another update expected soon as a normal threads view was promised soon by yourself...
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
We are going to work on that as soon as we can as promised hopefully with some series design improvements. It is a view we are very interested in adding and it is on top of our list.
[Android Apps and Games] gohamstergo:
Bug / Omission: In "Ninja Popup Settings" menu, Back button is missing on Ninja Head Icon on the header.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
Thank you for mentioning this issue, will look into it.
[Android Apps and Games] weirdsciencex:
Can you explain how this feature works?

Is this full emoji support as I could only see subset?

Thanks for the update.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
We have 2 levels of encryption:

First level is over-the-air encryption, so carrier cannot see it.

Second level is encryption locally on the phone for storage so case you lose your phone or to prevent malicious apps from uploading all your sms messages and reading them.

Both options are available for users to enable/disable as they please however the first type requires both parties to have Ninja SMS (obviously).

We did not want to add the full emoji set to keep Ninja window light and clean. We can add full emoji support later though or give you the option to choose what to emoji to show in the Ninja window.
[Android Apps and Games] weirdsciencex:
Ok. Thanks for the info.

Keep up the good work. Love this app.
[Android Apps and Games] gohamstergo:
in addition to choosing emojis, can we also have the option to disable the display of all emoticons? i much prefer to just see the text. one reason, today i received a text saying "9:30" and it displayed as "9:)0". to avoid these kinds of problems, i always disable all emoticons, please add this option ;)
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
We will be pushing an update later today in which you will find the option you requested and a fix for the problem you mentioned.
[Android Apps and Games] NguyenHuu:
hi dev, can you have option to display over lock screen?
[Android Apps and Games] tyler78:
When a sms comes when it isn't collapsed, it leaves the notification on the notification bar. I have to collapse and open again for it to go. It's annoying since it causes notification led to light. Can you please fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] gohamstergo:
[MENTION=4931670]MostafaGazar[/MENTION] You're the man :)
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
Actually we looked into this before but we did not have time to implement it yet, will try to work on it soon.

You should be able to get a fix for this issue in near future with some series overall notification improvements.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
Thank you, the update you requested is now live btw
[Android Apps and Games] TheAltruistic:
Sent you an email earlier today about the encryption. It works, but when I disable the feature in all places (in the main settings menu, and for each individual contact if appropriate) the messages still show hash jargon in my stock SMS app.

Is there any way to have the messages decrypted after they've already been encrypted? I do find myself jumping back and forth to my stock SMS and NinjaSMS app due to app compatibility issues (e.g., AutoSMS doesn't work with Ninja active).

I guess going forward I won't be encrypting my messages to avoid this happening, and doesn't really make sense going forward too heh.
[Android Apps and Games] zst123:
I'm not a fan of this font.. Maybe a font change option? Great UI and Speed! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
For now you can only decrypt your previously encrypted messages in Ninja SMS. It sounds fair to add an option to decrypt previously encrypted messages, we will do some research regarding the usability of this feature and will be adding it in a future update.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
We have some very cool ideas related to customization in general which include custom fonts and more. We still have to work on some other features first though.

I'm testing this with Go sms, so far a third party messaging app that works near perfect with ninja sms is 88sms :) but I like IOS6 Emoji so I'm trying go sms because handcent had a bug with scrolling, chomp sms doesn't have group messaging, and textra uses its own database -_-

Anyone know of a good third party sms app that has iOS6 emoji, group messaging, and plays well with ninja sms (I would love to have the ability to make custom notificationsnotifications with led and icons for each contact as well)

little thing

Hi, first of all this is app is great!! But... there is something I don't get. is it so that ninja sms doesn't give a notification if you get a message from someone you dont have the number of? Or if you did not tick the contact in your ninja sms contact list?

Im testing it by sending messages to myself. And I did not get a notification cause I dont have myself saved as a contact in my phone. So I saved myself as a contact... but still didnt get a notification. Untill I ticked myself in the ninja sms contact list. Then I got a notification....

What if I get a message from someone I dont have the number of.... I will not be notified??? Or if I want to send a message to a person I have not saved in my contacts?

If these are stupig questions.... Im not a ninja yet!!! Yet.... :p
[Android Apps and Games] Bzow:
You will get pop ups from Ninja SMS for the contacts you enable. You should still get a notification from the stock messaging app from other people, but you won't get the little window from Ninja. I have the "Select All" enabled and it works great.
[Android Apps and Games] rocketlog:
FCs with 88sms when Delete Old Messages is enabled.
[Android Apps and Games] Bzow:
Have the stock app delete your old messages, not 88sms. Maybe that will help.
[Android Apps and Games] d4c:
Still awaiting support for conversations list.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
BTW we are working on threads view, full emoji and groups support and which will be divided on a couple updates to be published in the near future. We are trying to improve the whole messaging experience so you should be able to depend on Ninja SMS fully with these upcoming updates, you will also still be able to use any other messaging app with Ninja SMS if you want.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
We finished working on a basic conversation list plus some other cool features/improvements I will not be mentioning now but you should expect an update within a week or two.

With all these new features, i hope you guys don't forget to fix the bugs previously reported in this thread ;). These two nasty ones annoy me almost every day:

- when the popup is open and new messages arrive, the new messages are not marked es read

- messages are accessible through the emergency dialer

Any chance you could add chat head docking functionality similar to HALO/Floating Notifications??
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
Is there any way that we could make a feature list? And maybe get a poll and then the features with the most votes get added at least 1 time a month? (if possible, because I know that some people ask for absurd things like CMON really?! Lol next thing you know : Can you add a feature where an actual ninja pops out of my phone and reads me a message?!) lolol

[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
Yes, I cannot give you a date yet of when it can be ready though.
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
That is actually a very good idea and we had something similar to that last month in out Facebook page here https://www.facebook.com/ninjasmsapp/posts/584294111608985. We will try to make that more often and in a better way.

We really very much appreciate your feedback and want you to help us improve Ninja SMS by telling us what you want to see next.
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
Dude you guys are awesome! You communicate with your consumers/users, and you actually care about what we want, we appreciate your work!! I'll keep checking the fb page for polls and such :) I'll try to put together a personal "wanted feature" list to help you guys with some ideas :)

Ok everybody who wants to participate, PM me a list of features you want in Ninja SMS and I'll add them to the list I'm making and then I'll post the "master list" here haha!

Thanks again to the Dev for being so open to requests!

[Android Apps and Games] d4c:
Just a suggestion developer, but maybe you could release smaller fixes in more frequent updates to satiate our appetites for your app? Like I said just a suggestion...
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
Ok no one has PM'd me but I made my list lol so here. :)

-Conversation list

-All emoji

-Individual/custom notifications (LED, Icons, vibration if possible)

-Ability to change length of vibration

-More themes (or ability to change colors via color wheel, hex codes etc.)

-Ability to dock conversation on a side & and to be able to hide or pull it a little farther out (kinda like halo does)

-When multiple conversations pop up, that they be slightly off so you can see that there's more than one

-Pop up in front of lockscreen (optional)

-Ability to dismiss conversations by throwing the pop up circles up or down to an "x" or trash can (kinda like FB messenger)

-MMS and Group Messaging through MMS

Hope this helps :)

Ability for pop up to expand to full screen and not just a small pop up...
[Android Apps and Games] Kiki Banderos:
I'm using the promo version and I miss something a lot, correct me if it's included in the last release.

I would love ninja SMS to be enabled automatically, depending of the current application. For example in the launcher, notepad, dialer, and all applications where my notification bar is available, I don't need a popup. However, when playing a game or any fullscreen app, I often forget to re-enable it.

So is there a way to do it ? Did I miss something ? Or at least, might this be controlled by a third app like taker or llama ?

If this option is available this will he nearly perfect, for sure I'll buy this app :)
[Android Apps and Games] iNeedICS:
There is that ability, :) you just press the arrows that go up and down, unless you mean some things else lol

Hi

I recently reinstalled ninja after playing around with PA's halo for a while.

However I'm having this weird issue where the overlay which appears when initially starting the app won't disappear (see attached screenshot).

Any suggestions? I have tried the obvious uninstall/reinstall/reboot etc.

Regards

Thank you for sharing this info, I will look into this issue as soon as I can.
[Android Apps and Games] gohamstergo:
Im having a SERIOUS problem with Ninja. I run a lot of background apps and sometimes Ninja will get killed in the background without me knowing. When this happens **I don't get ANY texts!** They don't even show up in the stock messaging app. I only know they exist when I get home and MightyText has them in its list. Please Please make Ninja harder to kill or make an option to run in the Foreground. Lately, this has caused me some real problems where I don't get important texts from people that I need. Another option could be to NOT have Ninja intercept texts the way it does (however that is), but instead, let the stock messaging app handle texts and simple sync with that. I dont know. Either way, please look into that ASAP! Thanks. I do love Ninja tho, so I really don't want to have to stop using it because of this :(
[Android Apps and Games] MostafaGazar:
The way Ninja SMS is build is that the Android system wakes it when a message arrives. Ninja SMS does not run a background service to monitor SMSs but we think there is a small improvement we can work on.

Can you please tell me what device do you have? and do you always have a low memory situation?
