I have adaway (I'm rooted), so I don't see ads. ;)

A premium version should offer something more than just being ad free...

But apps I like I give donations, if it's something I use a lot. So, I think I have the donated ad free version of this app, besides using adaway...

I've not used textra. Sounds interesting with all the positive comments in this thread.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] ChazzMatt:
I have two Moto Maxx phones (as my signature says) -- one from Puerto Rico, one from Mexico. Running xposed/Gravity Box on 4.4.4 on the 1st one until we get Lollipop custom ROMs. Going to sell the second one, as my wife loves her Nexus 5 too much.

But I'll try textra due to the positive comments in this thread.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] BenHolliday:
I've been using Handcent SMS for years but judging from the replies, it's time to try other apps.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] wadamean:
I hate how Google messenger has stopped supporting WiFi to send mms. Now it requires data all the time. Had to start using textra and much better that it gives WiFi mms but also quick reply. What I miss from Google messenger is the double short vibrate for text notification.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] Ziltoid:
I use Hangouts since at work i also chat with my wife through gmail. Wish there was a desktop client where I can text non hangouts people though. Similar to iMessage

Google messenger because of the clean look
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] Ungo:
I used Handcent for years....loved it. But the recent updates have extremely intrusive ads that show up on the top of your text message conversation list as a text a few times a day. You also got a notification that you have a text when you get the ad. And you can't pay to make it go away permanently. You have to repay every year. Needless to say that it was dumped quickly.

I just switched over to CHOMP which is fully customizable. The people who make Textra make Chomp. Almost the same app.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] kasim1:
ChompSMS ALL Da way,

it has a "lock screen" notifications and reply

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] streebs87:
Lately Google Messenger seems to be the most stable for me, so that's what I've been using.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] GeodudeFFP:
chompSMS...stable on everything, no problems with T-Mobile MMS, and customizable like crazy. Used many others, but always come back to chompSMS.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] Einsteindks:
Verizon's Message+.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] Ungo:
I used Handcent for years. It was insanely customizable and easy to use. However, after the last update, they nerfed it and added a TON of bloat nonsense.

So I switched to Chomp SMS. It is the same company that makes Textra, which alot of people here seem to use, and it is almost exactly the same. The biggest difference I noticed is Textra lets you theme with downloadable themes, while Chomp lets you theme it the same way AND lets you custom theme EVERY aspect of your text program. Change bubble colors, bubble styles, pictures or no pictures, font color, font size, text menu color, borders, no borders, etc etc. It actually was a little overwhelming at first but after playing with it for awhile I found the perfect combo of colors I like. Now anytime I try any new text app I automatically dislike it because it doesn't have the same color scheme that I like and am used to.

How do you send and receive mms and group over WiFi on Google messenger ? I have my data turned off and WiFi on and it won't download or send any mms or group messages
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] TheSt33v:
If you're on Verizon, you don't. MMS over wifi is not supported by Verizon.

EDIT: Actually, that's no longer true. It wasn't possible in the days of my old S4, but it's possible now. For me, sending MMS over WiFi was as easy as turning on WiFi, turning off cellular data and sending the message (using Textra, not sure about Google Messenger).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] seniorstew:
Are you having hspa to lte issues on tmo? It bounces back and forth alot even with strong lte signal areas
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] GeodudeFFP:
I haven't experienced such problems myself, but if you are having them, maybe give Textra a try (and let us know what your experiences are with it).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] TheSt33v:
I tried Textra after reading about it in this thread, and it's fantastic. It's like google messenger, but a billion times better.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] streebs87:
If you like a ton of customization then try out Yaata. I've been using it for a few days and its been great. You can change basically every aspect of the app but its still stable, light, and ad free. There are some features that aren't available until you donate, but you'll want to donate because it's that good.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] gumbi2647:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] ChazzMatt:
Google Hangouts because it's the only one that lets me send texts "from" my Google Voice number. All the other apps show my carrier phone number, which I don't want to give to anyone. It confuses friends when they see a text from the carrier phone number. "Who is this?" "Did you get a new phone number"

So, in Google Hangouts I use the setting to show the phone number I want to show. ;)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] rickybogo:
The official Google voice app does as well, and makes more sense to me than hangouts.

Google Messenger because I don't need as all the bling and gimmicks just to send a text message. Also keeping it closest to a nexus experience.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] streebs87:
Giving this one a try. Its actually pretty nice I like the Google Messenger feel of it but actually being able to tweak it with colors, bubble sizes, etc.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Themes and Apps] Jefff0101:
What makes me stick with textra is the option to make the notification open to a small window where you can reply without opening the app. If there are other apps that have that, I am open to suggestions because I do have problems sometimes with mms

I have Battery Status installed on my Orbit - I'm not overclocking that much, just every now and again when i think it's needed - and the Today plugin has been showing temps of 30 degrees at the end of the day! Last night the device was really annoying me as WMP refused to play any music - i got 2 secs following by 'buffering' for every - required soft reset.

Now this morning - after being on the charger all night, it's at 16 degrees... is WMP playing up because of the heat?? Anyone any advice / input? BTW, i have tried other music players which suffer from the same slow downs so it's definately the device as opposed to WMP being rubbish!...
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] grun:
Thirty degrees isn't that much, is it? Last Summer there were days when I had a roomtemperature of 33 degrees (Celcius). So every object in that room was also at least 33 degrees, even when it was turned off.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] chickyd:
I guess not... i'm just looking for a reason for the excessive slow downs i seem to be getting sometimes - when WMP refuses to play my music - it's really frustrating!

I also have pocket mechanic installed and when i get these slow downs i can see in it that CPU usage is constantly at 100%! Why?.. I have no idea!

Then i see the relatively low temp this morning and consider it must be that!

Any ideas greatly appreciated!...
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] chickyd:
I've realised it's nothing to do with the temperature.

This is a serious issue. Every time i got to listen to music (small mp3s) the device more or less crashes!!:eek: :(

Anyone able to help?:confused:
[Android Software Development] fefein:
Hello guys, we are close to release a a new free Android App. How ever, we dont want to put ads, we would hate that.

We have one question:

If we put in-app billing for receiving donations on a free App, is it against Google Policies? or ilegal?

will our app be in danger of being removed?

Anybody knows?

Thanks a lot!
[Android Software Development] CHEF-KOCH:
In-app isn't illegal.

Better integrate an donate version instead of use in-app or a pro key.

Why in danger or removed? If your app isn't against any copyright just go for it and release it, just remember if you use external libs or code, don't forget to give proper credits where it should belongs to and of course it should be noted somewhere in the app and in google play. The benefit to not integrate inapp is that it does not need internet permissions, you can host it in F-droid if you maybe gonna release the source and of course people like me are thankful to use as less as possible google things in your app.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malvic88:
Hi All,

Wondering if anyone is having this issue.

Flashed Lollipop with NRT on Nexus 4.

When using ROM Manager, trying to backup current ROM.

Boots to TWRP, but it cannot find the 'sd-ext' partition.

Proceeds to do a backup but the file is corrupt.

Also tried to backup right from TWRP, same issue.

Using latest version of TWRP.

I also reset to factory and cleared cache .... same issue.

Thanks,

Malcolm

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] Gareee:
Just discovered spen toolbox in the play app store. It's not advertised to work on the note 4, but it works fine.

It allows you to use you're own custom sounds for removing and replacing your spen, and can also pop up a mini menu of apps you use you're spen on. In addition, your note can not only turn on with spen removal, but also shut off on replace.

It can even auto launch an apk on remove, but I find in using the spen more and more.

There is a shutoff delay on the free version, and no delay if you pay the $2.60 or so for the unlocked version.

I was so happy it worked flawlessly, I was happy to pay for full, even though it's high for limited functionality.

So now can use light Saber startup sounds, muscle car sounds, or ghostbusters proton pack sounds.!

Here's the play link:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] The-Chief:
For the Developer Edition (IF rooted), I just downloaded the GMD Spen Control app. Almost $6 USD but WOW what that thing does! Some of the best money I've spent in a long time. Actually, I spent none of my own money: I have Google Rewards app, which pays cash into my Google account for taking surveys on my phone... so I used that! :D

Anyway, I highly recommend both apps. That said:

Does anyone here have the OGG files for the lightsaber start and stop? I'd love to throw that into the sound library - THANKS!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] Gareee:
You can use any wav or mp3 file as well. I currently have the ghostbusters proton pack startup and shutdown sounds on my note.

Does the root app offer any additional functionality?

I saw lag a few times on playback on remove and replace, but think I found the cure, just like the "ok Google" delay.

No Garee, There are different stylus available for iPhone, you can check them on amazon or ebay.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] Gareee:
True, but they work just like a finger touch does. There is no extra button to launch a nenu, not pressure sensitivity, and no way for the device to detect you even have a stylus.

That's why it makes no sense at all to me to try to replicate the app on an iphone...it depends on hardware support of a stylus, not just using a simple capacative pen.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] theoutzu:
Well, i tryied to see what information i retrieve with the french rom(QT_FR_9100_2170706_21707106_20710_180406) of qtek 9100 executable, u know, the screen in wich u can get info about the device language, image versiion and model make. Followed the standard procedure , CID unlocked, backed up the rom, no need to sim unlock cbecause it was no locked. Here comes the weird part: the screen that was supposed to return the info (where u still can quit),didn't return any info, it was like upgrading nothing to nothing. It's a g3 and i did the normal way to CID unlock it. now whehn i reboot the phone, the SPL remained the same (1.01), but the IPL has changed from 1.01 to IPL 1.01.0000. Why those four zeros?...neve knew.Anyway i didn't installed any rom , because of no info on that screen...was afraid not to damage my device :D . Still, the qtek provided here for WIZA200,(RUU_Prodigy_1010708_108_Qtek_FRA_SHIP) returned this info.Wich one is correct?, If i want to install a new rom do i have to CID unlock again, even if i didn't installed any?

Hopefully i'm not alone on an island when I say that the Nexus 6 is just too large for me. If i wanted a phablet, there are other alternatives. Having said that i was just curious what the future of Nexus is going to be? I suppose it's way too early to know, but just wanted to put my mind at ease because ever since the latest release, I'm really at a loss as to what my next phone purchase will be?

We now have the Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 6, nexus 7, Nexus 9, Nexus 10? Will they refresh the current screen sizes with newer hardware? I really hope so cause screen size is the biggest factor now for me in terms of buying a nexus. If the nexus 4 had a refresh, i would have totally gone with that. Thoughts anyone?
[Nexus 5 General] _MetalHead_:
If you're looking for your next phone, I HIGHLY recommend the new Moto X.
