I'm still having on-off issues with new message notifications :( Sometimes it notifies me, sometimes it does not. :(
[Android Apps and Games] Dino.:
I found out somehow I lost the mms.apk and the messages never came through.

Anyways, changing the color of the draft and paper clip In the inbox would really be a small and appealing update.
[Android Apps and Games] wierdo124:
1.6 update just made the app WAY slower for me. It's absurdly slow. The load more button is there but it appears it's still loading all of them right away. It's also not sending most texts. Motorola Droid...idk what's screwed up but i'm back to Chomp for now. I could stand it before but this is WAY worse.
[Android Apps and Games] xpod:
If I set a password for screen unlock, the pop up won't show. Have to screen unlock first to see the pop up
[Android Apps and Games] dmarden:
New update continues to work really well for me, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] rexboy:
I have the same prob, need to turn off wifi to send/receive an MMS but this seems to be a widespread issue, with chomp, go and even standard messaging app.

Using a HD2 with Android 2.2 (MDJ Froyo Sense revolution).

Mates also using a flashed Android ROM on his HD2, same wifi / mms conflicts.
[Android Apps and Games] tebower:
I love this app! I would like to see the Dark theme be able to actually customize "bubble" color. I wish I could have the incoming and outgoing texts alternate shades of gray, instead of just dark gray or white text. It would make it easier to read then one consistent background color. Is this possible? Currently the setting is there, but it does nothing.
[Android Apps and Games] tebower:
I don't know how one would ever be on "wifi" only. Do you go into airplane mode, but reenable wifi?

If you sever your connection to a cellular network, of course messages wouldn't go through. Text messages require cell signal to go - they are not a wifi service. This isn't a problem, it's a result of a disabled connection.
[Android Apps and Games] Sian:
Sadly, still no customisation of alert tone for each contact...
[Android Apps and Games] KrayzieIDEOS:
Ok so i just upgraded to 1.60, and now it closes with 'An unexpected error'. The error popup doesnt even stay on the screen long enough to read the message. It stays in my notifications though. So the app is now un usable for me! :@

Which sucks majorly because i like this app over all other messaging apps!
[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
Still unable to send mms. Incoming works now however. Back to ChompSMS until then :(

this message was sent from space via android
[Android Apps and Games] LRMaggot:
Groups set up

I have recently given GoSMS a try and really like the feel and speed of it, however I send a lot of group messages and getting these set up is causing me problems. Half the people I want in the groups have a land line and mobile number associated with them but when putting those in a group it uses the landline number, not the mobile one. It I send a message to just that person it gives me the option to choose which number to use but when putting that person in a group it uses the land line number shown by default.

Is there any way around this? It's a bit of a deal breaker for me as the stock app works great for groups.

Cheers

Steve.
[Android Apps and Games] rexboy:
Data network (APN) is activated along with Wifi so as you mentioned, for SMS's etc it uses the normal network setting however for some reason, if Wifi is enabled, it doesnt switch over to send the MMS, it continues to attempt this with Wifi so you have to manually switch this off, recieve your MMS and then reselect Wifi (not a big day but still a bug for many).

When i was running windows, both are selected and everything is auto, it would know when receiving either a SMS or MMS etc without any manual intervention.
[Android Apps and Games] I'M NOT YELLING:
No, I turn off the 3G and 4G radios at work and home because my wifi connections stomp them into the ground. It switches over to 2G with both those radios off, so I can still make calls and send messages.

The stock SMS app and Handcent both send MMS messages through wifi. I don't know what voodoo sorcery they did to make them work, but if they make them work, I'm sure GO SMS can make it work.
[Android Apps and Games] diSke:
amount of SMS in that thread :)
[Android Apps and Games] Bocko:
I would also like to request that one feature that would be really appreciated for any languages with accents.

I tried Handcent and Chomp but your SMS app is the best for me.

Please keep up with this awesome work!!!
[Android Apps and Games] Frankylinux:
That does not seem to work with me on HTC Desire with rooted Froyo 2.2 with threads of roughly 2,500+ msgs (could be 3,000, not sure).

When writing a txt, it is so slow most of the time that I often need to wait 20sec+ before the first letter types, though I have pressed on it 20sec before. Writing the first 2 words is usually frustrating.

Also scrolling through the thread is extremely slow, a real pain.

All this makes live conversations very hard cuz once I send the txt I have to wait a very long time before I can write again.

ChompSMS is super quick on that. Not sluggish at all.

Stock HTC Msg app is not too bad either.

Only GOSms fulfills my needs in terms of functionality, so would it be possible to optimize the speed of data read/retrieve from a msg thread?

tnx!!

Frank
[Android Apps and Games] kally:
First of all, your app is amazing! I use it now instead of handcent, because it's much smoother, faster and looks nicer.

But I got a question. Many users here use the combination of "smsdroid" and "websms". That's because we have online sms-accounts at eg. Cherry sms, o2, innosend or gmx. With smsdroid we can read all the sms and answer or send a new one with every other like websms. Websms can connect to the online-sms-accounts and send them much cheaper threw the internet.

My point and question now is, if you can add the feature of sending with every other app (like Websms) to GoSMS? That would be great and help many other users to "convert" to GoSMS.

Thank you for your good work and keep on working like that, it's fantastic!

Ok I upgraded to 1.60, and now it force closes with 'process com.jb.mms'.

This happened randomly when using the phone, but not the GoSMS application.

[Android Apps and Games] sohaib17:
I found a delivery report bug... It happened when I sent a message to my friend's old number which is not in use anymore, after a second or two it got delivered, I'm much surprised as the number is off for about a month. I then checked by resending with stock sms app and the msg remains undelivered. Then I came to know that all delivery reports shown by Go sms are fake.

SE Xperia 2.1
[Android Apps and Games] Frankylinux:
They are?

Frank
[Android Apps and Games] dmarden:
My delivery failure/success indicators have always been accurate.
[Android Apps and Games] bongd:
*** SNIP ***

My bad. Messages were showing up in the wrong order because I forgot to offset the time. Still behind by 5 hours but as long as I have it reset it works.
[Android Apps and Games] bongd:
Ah ****, when I get pop ups and click the X it deletes the message now too. Is there anyway to change this please?
[Android Apps and Games] nezuko:
For some reason, after I insert contact/picture, or anything with insert feature, the on screen keyboard always hide itself, so I have to tap in the message field again to make it appears. Hope this will be fixed in the next version.

2ndly, Bug with the contact inside go sms. when you tap the search field in the contact, the keyboard appears, and if you minimize the keyboard and tap the search field again, it didn't show up, nothing happened so I have to sroll all the way down my contact. I don't know whether it is my phone bug or go sms bug. I use Optimus One P500 v10c rooted.

Anyone also experiences this?
[Android Apps and Games] Flappy264:
I upgraded to 1.60 and now sometimes I open go sms and have only black screen with notifications bar... I have to kill it with task killer then. -,-
[Android Apps and Games] f_padia:
apologies if this has already been suggested but itd be nice to have a chracter count on the popup message thing. Its a bit annoying not knowing how many characters ive typed in a quick reply.

otherwise I really like the app. excellent work :)
[Android Apps and Games] wingz85:
One other small thing I think would be good, is a reminder option, so if you dont read a txt you get reminders every so many minutes? Other than that great app
[Android Apps and Games] Chalob:
Love the app, works much better than the standard android messaging app. Works great on my XT720, Haven't had any problems at all!
[Android Apps and Games] zmalach:
Arabic Support

Great application!!

I will try it now for few days

So far works without any problems

Definitely will switch to it if I would be able to read Arabic messages (at the moment the letters are disconnected), it should be easy fix to get them connected :-) than you will get 5 stars from me at the android market

Thanks for the good job and keep it going
[Android Apps and Games] hotty1177:
gr8

Hi,

first of all GOSMS is the best sms app thanks for the gr8 effort.

after playing awhile after install i have found out :

1. SECURITY INPUT SCREEN is to big in my wildfire cant press the button "OK"

2. Adding NEW MESSAGE the seach box if not reponding what i input.

3. INBOX apperance bar is too big adjust abit to make smaller also in CONVERSATION

4. MAKE the status bar option to HIDE

I appreciate if you implement this or include this in your next release.

cheers,
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, 2ndly is konwn issue, fixed, will be avalible in next release.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Got it, in plan. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, in plan
[Android Apps and Games] pda:
guys

I have facebook sync disabled.. how does it get the facebook pictures?

cheers
[Android Apps and Games] dmarden:
It's in your Facebook, updating your status

Sorry, kidding...

So if you look in your normal stock contacts list those pictures aren't there?
[Android Apps and Games] brewcrewwheels:
so close to replacing handcent

all it's missing for me is contact pictures in the conversation threads and an option to remove the message count in the inbox (a minor thing, but it annoys me for some reason). keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] TimD123:
First off, love the application and thank you for releasing it.

With this latest 1.60 release I noticed a new service running called "LogProcessor". Can you say what this is and how I can turn this service off? I try to keep the constantly running services to a minimum. I wouldn't mind it if it only came on when needed then turned itself off but it is on constantly unfortunately.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] whatsleft4her:
Can you please incoperate setting up notifications for each contact like handcent does

[Android Apps and Games] flakz0r:
Thank you very much, this is very good! Great performance too! Thread subscribed!
[Android Apps and Games] k0smo86:
Well done with the themes, look great. Performing great as usual!
[Android Apps and Games] KROMO50:
Only thing holding me back is that with launcherpro dock it will not show i have a new message and if you can make the trackball blink more then just the first time i get the message using N1 stock rom.
[Android Apps and Games] webmastir:
Just tried this out. Not bad --- very quick (which is a big plus in my book)

Hopefully, more themes are coming soon. I know you said they are on their way, so I will try back again in a future update. Until then, I hope the quickness of this app stays similar to what you have it at... keep up the great work Go SMS. Very promising app!
[Android Apps and Games] QUEDRO:
I just tested the PopUp Window message..

well text is definitely to small. Contact picture would be better to be bigger too.

So far SMS Popup app is the best for me.

my suggestion would be for window popup:

* transparency feature

*bigger/bolder text

*surfing (like HTC Sense Message Widget)

this app has great potential.
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
Tried GO sms, and by golly it's absurdly fast. Very clean and light on the resources as well. I do love to have more themes though, such as a full-blown black scheme with some color accents. Still, a great app and I'll re-download it once more features will be added. +rep
[Android Apps and Games] woaloo:
Ideas...

Great app !!! Thanks for all your job.

I've got an idea(s),

Could you add a sort of Private-Secure box to drop (automatically or not) message of filtered contact. It's missing on Android Planet :-)

And the option to backup/restore message could be great

That's all for the moment...

PS: Does your app break the limit of 300 characters in SMS
[Android Apps and Games] v4nt0m:
Thanks for the great app, I love the neat look but imo lacking a few things before I adopt it fully:

* Customisable notification icons

* Only show popup window when phone locked

Would also like to see a more comprehensive theme editor like Handcent.
[Android Apps and Games] snazzymasta:
Great looking interface, fast, bug free so far on CM6 Alpha on the MT4G. I hope this app will end up being my daily SMS app.

Just adding my support in requesting a couple of the same features other users wished for:

-Synced Facebook pictures for contact icons

-Pop up on lock screen only

-Display pop-up for call/view contact/email/etc when tapping picture of contact like other native Android apps
[Android Apps and Games] drock617:
Great app so far, have found a problem thou nothing bad, using a galaxy s phone the vibrant, and the phone doesn't vibrate when i hit the menu button, all other 3 work.
[Android Apps and Games] AlienCraB:
Some feedback

Well, I just downloaded the application from the market and used it for a while.

Some feedback I could give:

+ You could do the Batch mode to stay always on without having to use Menu > Batch Mode and make the batch options appear only when items are selected, just like the way standard HTC Messages application work.

+ In any Google and/or HTC application when you click onto the contact picture there is a pop-up menu, or bubble menu some call it, that allows you to do various things, like seeing the whole contact card, emailing or calling. You have only got calling right now.

+ Another thing about the calling menu could be when the contact you've recently texted have got, let's say, four numbers. The application does not ask which one to call.

Hope these'll be useful, it'll a great application in a couple of updates I think :)
[Android Apps and Games] chiefvelo:
I seem to be getting spikes in CPU usage with the current GoSMS version.

Also all of a sudden the notifications stopped working.

Anyone else see this?
[Android Apps and Games] cadon69:
I just found out about this app today and I must say, AWESOME!

I would like to ask however that you consider adding the option for incoming SMS to light up the screen. If I hear the ring tone and/or feel the vibration, I can unlock it and see the pop up; but would be nice if the screen came on also!

Otherwise Thank you very much for making such an awesome app!
[Android Apps and Games] Phoenix Zero:
Just installed but loved it instantly and uninstalled Handcent SMS in favor of this! Overall, it feels and looks good. The themes are really nice (and creative!), and I especially love the iPhone theme because being a web designer, it really appeals to me and Handcent's iPhone theme had terrible images, padding, etc but this is really nice. I also love love love how clean and well spaced the pop-up windows are. Perfect -- don't change 'em.

Some things to improve upon:

1. Lag. The scrolling isn't exactly perfectly smooth even with very few texts in a thread; I can only imagine what it would be like with hundreds.

2. Additional themes/theme options. The ability to change all the font colors (incoming, outgoing, date, names) is a huge plus. The ability to change the bubble colors would also be nice but I understand how it may be difficult to keep the same crystal-sharp look and have dynamic gradients.

3. Facebook Contact Photos don't show up in there. Huge minus for me because the majority of my contacts automatically sync their contact pictures from Facebook.

4. Turn the screen on when receiving a message.

5. Ability to choose the LED color, including different colors for different contacts.

That's all for now. I can't wait for this to grow into something great because it has lots of potential. Good luck, devs. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] odoss:
It's not smooth

I don't like the pop up style ( i like a lot the one of chompsms )

But nice beginning.
[Android Apps and Games] zok-star:

Will keep an eye on this though!!! Keep it up!!

[Android Apps and Games] diegov600:
Really Like it

The only thing that I need to work is to split the message in 160 characters by word as Handcent does, I'm on a Droid Incredible.

Thanks for so wonderful app. Keep the good work.
[Android Apps and Games] Frankylinux:
Very interesting!!!!!!

I would love to use it, but it's a total no go without a widget. :( I use widget A LOT for SMS, so I'll stick with HTC's until GO SMS has a widget.

tnx

Frank

EDIT: Actually we can still use HTC's widget and once we click on it, it opens up GO SMS. So I will keep GO SMS. :)

I think it would need the possibility to view your entire message before sending, like the HTC does. Currently we type and the only button is SEND, not DONE. So the kbd keeps showing and we only have a thinny window to visualize our entire msg.
[Android Apps and Games] pda:
Nope no pictures in the contact list
[Android Apps and Games] Frankylinux:
Anyone having 3500+ msgs in one thread to confirm this?

tnx
[Android Apps and Games] jpayne97:
I don't understand why some contacts have their FB picture showing up and others don't. I haven't done anything special to the ones that do show up. All the ones missing do have the contacts joined just like the ones that have them showing. Only thing I ever did to get the pictures was sync all in facebook. Default auto joining for all. Weird.

Poynt + GO Sms

Whenever I try to open the recently updated Poynt app, GO Sms doesn't open but Poynt seems to be working fine. As soon as I delete Poynt and restart my phone, GO Sms works again. I tried to send an error report sms but it won't let me. Any idea on what is causing them to interfere?
[Android Apps and Games] hmmm...:
just thought i would register to say thanks for the fantastic application. This is way better than the other messenging app.

Just wondering if you would consider adding a reminder function, something like it beeps every couple of minutes to remind you that a message has arrived, then it would make it perfect.

Thanks! :)

hi,wanna say thanks for fixing the contact bug. but why now i cant use mp3 ringtone? :(

[Android Apps and Games] redpoint73:
Had this same problem on 1.60, and same on 1.68.

Original photo = 794K

Max MMS Size = 600K

Go SMS Compressed to an absurdly tiny 17K

Tried different Max MMS sizes in settings, it makes no difference.

I do a decent amount of MMS, so unfortunately this for me is a deal breaker. Too bad, seems like a nice app otherwise. Now trying Chomp SMS.

YES! Individual customizable alert tone! Thanks dev!
[Android Apps and Games] rob77:
I've just upgraded to 1.68 and have noticed a bug not in the other versions. When I receive a text my screen comes on although I have it set to off in the settings. Otherwise everything is great and loving the improvements on each release :)

I just noticed this bug as well, otherwise very good and love the new theme.

Any chances for flat Android conversation style AND foreign character conversion? (to get full 160chars ) HTC_IME MOD doesn't detect GO SMS as SMS app and doesn't conver on the fly and Go SMS doesn't have this function to do it by itself (Handcent does)
[Android Apps and Games] fjsferreira:
:s with 1.68, default ringtone is "on the hunt" and even after changed, still rings this ringtone :S

Found this app in the market a while back and have converted from Handcent. Great app, nice and simple, with frequent and, more importantly, pertinent updates!

only thing i wanna see is flat conversation style on most of the themes, i'm using the dark theme at the moment, never liked bubbles, otherwise this is easily the best sms app for android
[Android Apps and Games] Batfan:
I just downloaded 1.68 and it is working really well. My only real complaint is that the timestamps are 7 hours (7 hours behind) off. This is causing my messages to show up out of order :mad:

I tried using the time offset feature in the 'Receive Settings' but, after restarting the app and rebooting my phone, nothing changed.

Any help would be really appreciated!

i have very similar problem

on 1.68, default ringtone is "little". no matter what i change it to it stays on that

in short, i cant change the default ringtone at all

the only way is to assing an individual ringtone for everybody

no good....needs an update asap...
