[MENTION=4949967]klinkdawg24[/MENTION]! You seem to have taken it a little harder than i expected. And this is exactly the reason why I prefer to be a "Silent observer" instead of posting anything negative. I must apologize for it, however, as it has obviously hurt.

I asked out of curiosity. Google Plus is a social network and i believe it needs more resources to run than a messaging app. I may be wrong but then i am not a developer. I was concerned about "Sliding Messaging" as to WHY it doesn't. Its not because "I own an old smartphone" (i have my reasons to keep it, Voodoo Sound for example). Its because "I Love" your work. I can see the Massive potential this app has. And it makes me uncomfortable seeing its not where it should be. And why would I criticize something I so adore, when dozens of my friends have bought this app on my recommendation.

Following may be irrelevant so you may skip it.

Thats where i should apologize you once again because i I may've forgotten about you being a student. (as i am myself). You say to "Do it myself". I have tried. I am primarily an about-to-be an Auditor so learning something completely different was immensely difficult. ONE MONTH, i have spent on learning Android Development, wanted to create a simple "SMS" app (no MMS or anything) ... exactly the way i wanted to (just so i don't say anything to the developer of Sliding Messaging). But even after one month, i couldn't get anywhere near making an app, so i just let it go.

I gotta hand it to you though. Its really amazing to see Constant Updates from you and i firmly believe if you keep it up, one day this app will get there where its supposed to. So ignore what i said previously and keep doing what you are doing :)

------

Now, a small question i'd like to ask. I am sure you won't mind. But i'd like to know WHY its not possible for you to utilize the new Google guidelines to make apps? I am not a developer but i have observed that apps made on new guidelines are more optimized and work better than the older method (like in Hangouts)

Please take some time out of your busy schedule and see if you can answer :) If you can't, i won't mind.

-----

And the following, i am just mentioning anyway :) You may know this already.

Google new UI (Top Left Corner -- The three lines ... which opens the new SideBar which comes out OVER the screee)

Google's old UI (Top left corner -- The supposedly 'back' button ... which opens the Side Bar)

​
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg24:
As i said, the "over the top" slide out menu serves a completely different function than the side on. Hangouts is not an older style, it is suppose to be that way because that is how it was designed.

The over the top menu is suppose to be used as an extenstion of the settings menu or to navigate to different activities in the app. the side slide out menu is the always accessable portion that you use with fragments. so it doesn't refresh the app when they are clicked. ours works like hangouts because that is the functionality that google wants for those menus. you are correct that it is heavy than the on top menu because again, it serves a different purpose, something that shouldn't be done with the over the top menu.

It is not an older style as you have suggested. it is the current style for the functionality that we are looking for. Like i said, things that look the same, should act the same. as we use a view pager and use the sidebar to navigate through its fragements, this is the functionality that google wants out of it. The over the top sidebar is meant for simple text and a quick way to access a new activity.

If we were to put something like that in, we wouldn't have it display the conversations, it would display things like "Scheduled SMS" and "Templates" and "Get Help!". The objects on the lower part of the menu, because that is the way google wants it to work.

Will this app work on android 4.3 device, also will the messages be able to be backed up with sms backup and restore?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg24:
yes of course. it has the same functionality as any other messaging apps, just with some different implementations
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kimchi0400:
Liking the new cards+ layout! Still waiting on possibly putting the action bar on the bottom? ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
Ehm I don't understand a thing:

If i choose "classic ui" i have hangouts ui instead and if i choose "hangouts ui" i have the new card ui. :S

I'm experiencing problems with new feature after updating to latest version. Newest conversation animation that should be displayed over the "arc" is not showing now. After update it was ok for some time but now its missing and I don't know why. I tried every option in "SlideOver" menu and I gave up...

Anyone else having this problem?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:
What language? I'm guessing we forgot to update a couple of the language arrays with the changes.

I'm not quite sure what you mean with that...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Jakub_Z.:
I was talking about that little chat "bubble" that we are able to use with this update.

There is an option to display recieved unread messages with sender on that "arc". I don't know how to describe it correctly... Just when you receive a message there is animated text that flows on this little circle. I hope you can undestrand me ;)

The animation was shown on circle when minimized and when maximized by touching it. Now its missing or it appears randomly.

I hope the screen below shows you what I mean.

http://pics.tinypic.pl/i/00441/r6tavymcw8x5.png

And more: I don't get proper notifications with LED when using SlideOver chatbubble...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
Sorry for my bad language expression.

Ok prefect :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] wera750:
I've found two problems. When sending texts via Google now it sends two texts to the recipient. The second issue may be unfixable. When I receive a text motorla assist won't read it out loud when driving. I don't know if that can be fixed in the app or if it's in the framework etc.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] iNeedICS:
Oh man! Improvement improvement improvement! I love it! Haha! Keep it up klinkdawg! You're the bomb, if only I had the money to buy your emoji keyboard that you put out I'd actually put a bomb xP

Sent from my Note 2, just in case you were Note-icing my sig ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg24:
if you disable notifications from the slideover setting, you will not get led notifications. i added a disclaimer for this in the next version.

I guess i don't really understand what you mean by the animation. works perfectly for me...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chlorophyll:

Hi,

"Option to theme the hyperlinks for anyone with the theme engine"

I didn't find this option in theme engine or edit theme editor on my phone.

There is something wrong with it or maybe I didn't understand the way it work.

Thank U for all your job ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:
I like that idea, may have to try it out sometime, thanks!

Should be the very bottom option when you go to edit a theme.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gordec:
I tried a search but don't see an answer. Is anyone able to download vcard mms? My stock mms and sliding messaging don't work, but go sms can see the vcard. It's very strange. I'm on Galaxy S4 flashed google edition.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] greckia:
Hey klinkdawg, I just wanted to tell you that your messaging app is hands down the most versatile and awe-inspiring messaging app I've ever used. Blows the stock app or any other app for that matter that I use on my HTC One out of the water. :D I've bought both your app and theme engine because I hope you get all the support you'll need to continue to improve on such a killer app. Keep up the stupendous work!

I'm sure you always appreciate new suggestions and I attempted to rectify the situation myself but I have the most minimalistic experience with code. Your app seems to overly-compress picture files to where they loose a significant amount of detail. For example, I sent a picture with both your app and the stock app; your app compressed what was a 1920x1080 screenshot to 270x480 (97.60KB) while the stock app compressed down to 720 x 1280 (116KB). My carrier (AT&T) allows up to 1000KB MMS files and I'd like to better utilize this limitation so pictures aren't so hard to decipher.

Is it as simple as changing these parameters in mms_config.xml?

<int name="maxMessageSize">1048576</int>

<int name="maxImageHeight">960</int>

<int name="maxImageWidth">1280</int>

(these are the new values I tried)

I tried it and recompiled but it didn't seem to fix the compression. I'm sure I'm missing something but I have no experience whatsoever besides researching the issue. Maybe in a future update you could allow less compression on photos? I don't have "Limit Attachment Size" selected in MMS Settings either.

Once again, thank you for your amazing app klinkdawg! :good:
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:
I've got to figure something out with the resizing, just have yet to get it working. Tried in the past but I just have absolutely no experience working with images and resizing them to a certain file size or anything, so gotta learn it as i go! That hasn't gone too well so far lol but rest assured i am trying! Although I can say my pictures send at about 300 kb, so not sure why yours would be compressing quite so much. Weird.

------------------------

Update to 7.45 coming up in the next hour or two! Done about everything I can with sending MMS for now so taking a break and moving onto something else (finishing voice support).

7.45 Changelog:

- MMS changes and fixes, now tested and confirmed working with Sprint and hopefully other carriers

- Option to try fetching the correct APNs based on your carrier

- Revamp of settings menu

- Bug fixes

Enjoy!

Klink this app becomes everyday better.

Could you please add a delete button to emoji keyboard?

Sometimes is really boring to switch between keyboards just to delete an emoji.

Great work!

i jus love this app. Thanks again to AUTHOR.

Tapatalked from my $3
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] :
I just checked this app in the store and noticed the "What's new" lists that MMS works on Sprint now! But bad news... I am on Sprint and MMS will still not send, I am using the pre-defined Sprint APNs but no go :(

Back to stock for now but I will keep trying new versions

I am able to use the following non stock apps with Sprint to send MMS without issues: Textra, GoSMS. However I would prefer to use Sliding Messaging so I am sending you guys some MMS fixing vibes :D

thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Po0yAn:
I think it would be good to have a sign in front of the message box for the delivery report, the toast notification doesn't seem enough. also i can't see the contact pic in messages nor in the action bar although i checked both in the settings.

-----------------EDIT

Both fixed with unchecking the performance tweak. Sorry for the inconvenient post

Anyone here using this with cm10.2 nightlies (with voice+)?

It could very well be a nightly issue, but receiving SMS has been spotty in since GV integration was added. Curious is anyone else is seeing this.

Yes but I don't have the voice plus enabled. I do have a Google Voice account primarily for the voice mail.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bmoresbest55:
I just wanted to report a little bug...

When I try to send a picture (this was a screenshot) the picture become pixilated, I assume from compression to send the picture over mms. This happens with or without the compress mms option checked. I do not seem to have a problem with other messaging apps sending compressed mms pictures.

I do realize that I can send messages through the stock app however I enjoy sliding messaging and switching apps is quite cumbersome.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thedieselspaceship:
MMS doesn't work

Hello gentlemen,

I've configured mms settings which are described on the web page of my mobile operator (https://www.life.com.ua/mportal/menu/10/category/2061/service/106/?locale=en) in the FAQ section, but the recipient doesn't receive a picture which I sent :(

Could somebody help me?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ACCUSED24:
Hey,

This app has been great for me, even when it first came out!

One question/request. For the theming, can we be allowed the change color of date?

Thanks again!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg24:
Yeah we know that it sends them at lower quality sometimes. once we get all the other mms issues worked out, then we will start this one.

Hang tight for the next beta to be bumped to production

---------- Post added at 09:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 AM ----------

Right now we have it set to the same color as the messages, just a little lighter.

I think that we are going to stick with this configuration because more option = more lag/start up time.

There is just a point when we have to say it is to much and majorly effecting the performace. We don't want to reach that point ever, but every time we add something new, it gets closer and closer
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MetallicMan:
Not sure if this was brought up yet, but the in-app notification doesn't work for group chats.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg24:
It didn't work for any MMS. This has been added in the latest beta

Is there a way to set Sliding Messenger to display a notification as well as the halo popup?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:
uninstall and reinstall. did you delete a font that you used to be using for the app?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:
​

... and now with FULL Google Voice texting support!

Adding the finishing touches to Sliding Messaging Pro 7.50 right now and it will soon be pushing out to beta testers to get at it! There's a lot going on for this one, so that means a long changelog and a lot of really important things for the app on our 200th release to the Play Store (that's right, since January 10th, 2013 there has been 200 releases between beta and production!).

1) Refreshing on a specified interval
2) Refreshing when Google Voice app shows a notification
3) Manual refresh from menu or settings
- MMS fixes (tons) including a fix for sending with WiFi enabled which is still experimental. Feel free to disable the WiFi MMS fix now though if you want to try!
- Google Voice sending settings are now saved on a per-conversation basis so that you don't have to remember to switch back and forth between SMS and Voice
- New settings menu navigation
- More delivery report options (checkmark only and notification)
- Holo Light theme applied throughout the app to better match Google's current styles
- Option to disable the mark as read by swiping away a notification on Android 4.3
- Tablet specific UI changes and fixes
- Option to enable a button that will take you to the full app in SlideOver
- Option to launch SlideOver popup from the DashClock extension
- Fix for keyboard showing up over the text input box in SlideOver
- And as always, lots of bug fixes :)

Sure has come a long way from Version 1.00 9 months ago ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chlorophyll:
OMG....wat a sexy update.waiting for the final version.thanks a million times author
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] :
It happened simply after updating the app, didn't delete anything. But a simple clear data solved the problem. Tried restoring my old backup though but it became wonky again so something disappeared in the update
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rockingondrums:
How do the new version and Voice+ get along?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
There's a problem:

If I set a contact in individual notification settings with a different notif. sound sometimes its notifications doesn't appear in status bar, is really irritating grrr. This happens only on last version.

Edit: even if I remove that contact from individual notification settings it happens.

[MENTION=2742902]klinkdawg[/MENTION] awesome update!

Is the Google Voice integration based on Babel (cm voice+)?

If users (I) are already using that, do you foresee it conflicting?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
Ehm I don' t understand what do you mean
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:
Leaving voice+ enabled may lead to the messages being saved twice, but it is mostly the same implementation so there is really no need to leave then both enabled.

I love this app but it constantly crashes. Anything I have to do to get rid of my prob?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
Hey guys i'm unable to solve my problem:

sometimes sms notifications aren't shown in statusbar with this app.

I'm on cm 10.2, I activated notifications of stock mms.apk and they are ever shown instead the ones of sliding messaging sometimes come and other times don't.

I don't know what to do.

Can someone please help me?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg24:
Yes, get us a log of the crash.

Try checking override stock.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
I will try but I think it's the notifications listener service, because deselecting messaging from it makes notifications works fine.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
I tried but in this way sometimes messages doesn't come.

I think is exactly the notification listener because other apps that use this service are working pretty fine and they shown even notifications that messaging doesn't. Can you please [MENTION=4949967]klinkdawg24[/MENTION] check it out? Thank you
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klinkdawg:
Notification listener looks for notifications from only the Google voice app, pretty sure that isn't the problem.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
And even for "swipe to mark as read", i use that feature.

Hey, I'm using the HTC One, and I can't get animations to work for messages sent/recieved. Any feedback, or other info you'd need to help me?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] :
Love the app so far, great responsiveness from the developers as well. Can't ask for more. One small little thing that's bugging me is that when I want to send a message and enter a contacts name via sliding with SwiftKey, SwiftKey automatically inserts a space after the word (which I want otherwise) but since a space is inserted no contacts are found even if I spelled everything correct. Is it possible to trim of the spaces behind names when searching for contacts?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KreNtal:
It's the only thing that I don't like of SwiftKey
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dawest:
Is there any way to prevent the app from "auto-advancing" when it gets a new text. On 10-15 occasions now I've been writing a reply to one person, and right before I hit send I get a text from another person, the app automatically advances to the newest conversation, and the reply gets sent to the wrong person.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sblast:
Please make quick reply smaller...It's huge and I cant see the text!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] crberus81:
Great app. Crappy response from klink today.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] greckia:
Just received the beta 3 update from the play store! The plethora of new features are astounding. The new MMS features alone are wonderful. Now I can send screenshots at max quality as they were intended to be sent. This is wonderful! Nice font too by the way! I'm not sure if I'll use my system font as I've already changed it to Klavika but this font is very easy on the eyes. :)

In case anyone was wondering how to move slide-over, just hold it and move it around with your finger. I was puzzled at first because I didn't see the options anymore. :D I should have checked the notes first, duh! This makes slide-over much more versatile! Although, I'm getting some strange functionality out of the quick-peek box on my end. I have an HTC One and it was extremely difficult to move the box using the action button drag. I eventually was able to move around the box by enabling quick peek: unread only. The problem is I don't want that enabled so I disabled it after moving the box but it just reverts back to the default location. My 5th conversation seems to be overlaying on top of the action button and I'm guessing that is why I can't move it. A SS is attached. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Just wanted to give another THANK YOU to you klinkdawg! I haven't even used this messaging app a month and the amount of meticulous effort and hard work you put in is really wonderful. I'm going to recommend anyone I know to buy your messaging app. Keep up the great work!! :good: :good:
