Anybody knows the way of restore DAT sms backup file?

Hi, i love the works of GDT.

I've same problem.

I've a problem with my SD card and so backedup to my gmail. But this file's name .DAT. So it's not an .XML file. Could you please a restore option for .DAT?

Or anybody knows the way of restore DAT sms backup file?

Is it possible to make the compose message box any bigger than 4 lines? When composing a sms you can't even read a 160 character message all at the same time. I like the feature of Chomp SMS where the compose message box would increase in size to accommodate the sms you were typing. Alternatively, if the text were a little smaller you could read more but still I don't think it would be enough to read a 160 character message.
[Android Apps and Games] Hippie459MN:
Handcent does this as well. I noticed that GO did not do this and it got annoying sometimes.
[Android Apps and Games] agentxq49:
+1 to this too. happylj... why u no reply?!
[Android Apps and Games] Anden100:
I tried this back when you just released it, and back then, i thought it sucked compared to Handcent. But the later development (and the new gray theme) has really improved it, espiecially these 3.x versions has been incredible :), please keep on this incredibly nice development :)

One thing though, is the menu (when you push the menu button...), i hate it compared to the standard Android one, im running Gingerbread, and i would love to keep the same style throughout my system :), however, thats a minor thing, and i can easily live with that :)

Overall, this has grown to be the best SMS app for android (in my opinion at least), and by far the fastest developing.

add unread count on the app icon?

Hi,

Is there any way of getting the SMS unread count number to show up on app's icon like the normal messaging app shows it?

I can't use the widget as I'm using MIUI and you can't stick widgets to the bottom screen icons.

Using gingerbread 2.3.3.

MMS stopped working for me too. This and the double messages issue made me come back to some old version. Waiting for the fixes.
[Android Apps and Games] padely:
I love it. And it's totally free. What a great app.

This is what I'm looking for.

With Go SMS Pro, I get:

- Scheduled Message

- Blacklist Option

- Encrypt Thread

im pissed off

I received a prompt to try the BETA version

3.32.1

I upgraded to it

7 days later it stops working saying please upgrade to the new beta or Uninstall / reinstall

There is no new beta

I am not bothered to uninstall and reinstall and lose all the configuration

Very annoying
[Android Apps and Games] Thomas_BA:
Just installed the update. Facebook plugin? Can't find the UI to access it. Am I blind?
[Android Apps and Games] nibynoga:
You need to have the folders view enabled. The plugins page appears after left swipe. Kinda weird solution btw...

After the update I haven't received double messages yet, so that's good. I guess the 'sound only' -> no vibration is the only problem for me now. (And the search bug as well).
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
I hope the options to remove the paperclip button and disable emoticons are in the to-do list!
[Android Apps and Games] markolonghorn:
^This. Needs to be a seamless transition from beta back to normal. Luckily I backed up my settings but still a hassle

Battery Drain

Just wanted to point out - after enabling the FB chat plugin, battery depleted 10% in 45 minutes, sitting idle, screen off. Signed out of the FB chat and battery was back to normal. Hopefully we will see some improvement on that in the future. LOVE the app otherwise, been using it for a while, never had much of an issue. Running aospMod 0.9.9.2 (froyo) Sprint Hero.
[Android Apps and Games] gpz1100:
This is still an issue in the new release (3.33)

I wanted to give GOSMS a try again with each new version. But when I read Market comments and comments like yours, I just want to stay with ChompSMS. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Lpast:
All I need is a solid notification light and im set.

Has anyone created the settings to get a solid notification light?
[Android Apps and Games] gpz1100:
Notification sounds works just fine here. Provide more details about your setup please. Have you checked through all the notification settings in gosms to make sure a valid sound file is selected?
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
Just that, at times when a new SMS comes in, i see my phone with a new sms but yet i was not notify. :( it's randomly on and off. and i cannot live with it. :(
[Android Apps and Games] aaargh777:
Yes, i tried all possible settings, different sound files, which all work fine in handcent and stock sms-app. On selection of the sound I can hear it, but when i touch on "test notification " or even on message arrival there's only vibration.

HTC Desire, S-Off, Ginger Villain 2.1
[Android Apps and Games] gpz1100:
@BryanChung, try sending a sms to yourself, exit gosms quickly, before you receive it. Leave this sms as unread. See if your notification issues continue.

@aaargh777, That's a strange issue. You'll have to work with the developer to figure out if it's some kind of incompatibility, or something in your setup. The notification in gosms seems to be picky about when it works the way it should. Through trial and error, I discovered the workaround above to make it work with widget locker.
[Android Apps and Games] aaargh777:
@ gpz1100: i already sent an email to the developer about it, about 1 week ago, no response til now.
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
as I mentioned, the problem happens on and off. that's why it's not reliable. :(
[Android Apps and Games] devteam:
Great app, need norwegian translation though :)
[Android Apps and Games] XRD:
Agree with both of these... hope they get implemented.
[Android Apps and Games] joopbloack:
does anyone know what's the package name for this app?

com.android.gosmspro ? how do i find out?
[Android Apps and Games] R-GTI:
Certainly we do not read images of contacts. and why we choose the contacts is not a SIM card from the phone, this is the problem why the contacts do not have pictures! Any solution?
[Android Apps and Games] NiceCarpet:
I E-mailed WidgetLocker's dev about this a few weeks back and he replied with the following:

Hopefully one of their devs sees it here.

@joopbloack com.jb.gosms. You can find app names by doing a Google search for the name of the app plus "appbrain". The URL of the first result should have the full name at the very end. E.g. http://www.appbrain.com/app/go-sms-pro/com.jb.gosms.

Keep up the good work!

Hello

Need a bit of help here , please

Running CM7 Rom on a Galaxy S phone , installed Go SMS Pro but having some difficulties setting up the background color for the 3 main windows of the app (it's all grayish while the font is the same....can barely read anything)

I'll post some screenshots if it helps...just let me know !

Any clues?
[Android Apps and Games] siedkins:
I'm having issues with Delivery Reports and yes I've used the search function on this thread.

I'm using GoSMS Pro 3.33 with LeeDroid GB 3.0.5 for my HTC Desire. I've found that if I send a message with GoSMS then I don't get a delivery report (no little symbol and long press and there's no "view report" option). However if I send the message with the stock messaging app then I do get a delivery report which shows up in GoSMS if I long press on the message.

I was using Handcent but I've subsequently uninstalled that. And I know in Handcent that they had a delivery report option and I had to turn that off to see them properly but I can't see any options of Delivery Reports in Go SMS.

Any ideas ?

Empty Inbox

Hello, installed a few days ago with Android Revolution, now my inbox is always empty, and my conversation thread is very one sided. Where do the incoming msg's go, is there a setting I have missed? Have uninstalled and reinstalled several times.

I am always notified about incoming msg's, I can look at them once, then they disappear.

Using a DHD with latest Android Revolution.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] slimpyman:
these gestures would be sweet if they switched Contacts, no app yet supports tabbed chats... and tabbing would be sweet as well. its just i seen and used the gestures (which really do something pointless imo) and wished when i was in conversation, if i gestured to the side, i can start chatting with somoene else!!

Of course I deleted my logfile... I did an other now.

Tonight I became an sms. My battery was 34%, the next morning my HD2 was shut down.

Well, I did a second logfile.

I really like this sms app !

But the unread sms notification in the lockscreen are not updating. It's always increasing until I open the stock app.

Sorry for bad english :D
[Android Apps and Games] sageDieu:
I would like to request a removal of the todo button on the popup ... I never use it unless it's on accident and then I lose my message and have to switch to the app and retype it. it's not useful IMO, just annoying.

Sent from my MIUI SCH-i500
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
Currently it is useful to many of us because it is the only way to dismiss a popup message without marking it as read. How do you even hit the todo button instead of send, anyway? They're in completely different locations, and when the keyboard is open it blocks the 3 bottom buttons (at least on my device).

IMO removing the button can be an option, but should not be a change made to everyone. No offense to you, just stating my opinion.
[Android Apps and Games] dmarden:
Please, no... Optional if anything. I use it a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] ninjajtm:
anyone know how to convert sms to mms so i can send long text messages without breaking them into alot of shorter messages?
[Android Apps and Games] agentxq49:
why not just request for drafts to be saved on popups. you asking to remove the todo button is not helping anyone but yourself.
[Android Apps and Games] bongd:
What's the package name for this? I want Widget Launcher to be on top of pop ups until I unlock my phone. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] harrykc:
great work. i like this app, thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] linknight:
I've been using this for a while now and I'm loving it, but I've noticed that in the past few days it has been acting up. Scrolling through my messages list has become VERY laggy and sluggish. I tried re-installing the app but it didn't help. I tried deleting some contacts from the message list, didn't help either. I also tried using a different theme and making sure it's in Lite mode, but no luck. Before this started, scrolling through my messages worked perfectly, so I don't really know what caused it.

And it seems running it in Pro mode actually improves the scrolling performance. It seems like it actually fixes it completely. I always ran it in Lite mode before the problem started.

I'm using the latest CM7 Stable on MyTouch 4G
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, " drafts to be saved on popups" is on the way.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:

I'm having trouble sending any sms now. I can send them through the stock app but not go sms. Not sure what is going on but this has only been occurring the last 24 hours or so.

The stock app also shows my messages sent through go sms as unsuccessful.

Any advice?

I loved it, untill recently, I received message, when I open from notification or app icon, the message is gone and shows the old messages :-(

Ups, sorry.

I've figured out the problem. It's because my date and time is changed back to the earlier date after changing Sim Card. The message is not deleted.

Reinstalled.

Bizarre! Not sure why I didnt see that. Why isn't it in sent setting given its for outgoing messages rather than incoming?

Is there any startup cleaner/killer(or something like that) that block GO SMS from startup? is there enough free memory?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, you make GO SMS blameless. Actually, GO SMS work well for most users, and for some cases, the user should inspect their phone; instead of just pointing to GO SMS :)
[Android Apps and Games] Lpast:
Thanks for your response. It's working now. I reset the app.
[Android Apps and Games] Ninsassin:
Yeah it would be great if this was fixed.
[Android Apps and Games] 0.0:
i really want to use this app, but the thing thats making me not use it is the popup doesnt auto-punctuate and auto-capitalize my words when using the hardware keyboard. chompsms and handcent can do this. I am using a T-Mobile G2. can it be fixed? thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Product F(RED):
Please make it so that if you get two texts in a row from the same person, replying in the popup replies to both texts.
[Android Apps and Games] low99:
This app is great, just want to report one thing, the search functionally works great, but when the results came up, clicking on it would bring me to the conversation, but not the exact thread/message where the search phrase was located. I've tried and I've still have to skim through the whole conversation of nearly 200+ messages just to find the searched text BOLDED in lots of text which are black as well...

It would be great if you can fix/add it. Great app thought! thanks for all your hardwork.

Could we have the popup be able to wake the screen?

Also, an option to have smiley faces instead of the return key for the app will be very convenient.

Widget Locker

Hey! I just absolutely love this app. I tried both Chomp and Handcent and I really disliked the way they looked, but this is perfect.

However, I'm using Widget Locker and everytime I unlock my phone, it shows the popup notification and after tapping on "Open" in the popup, it usually takes me to the stock lock screen and not Widget Locker's. I'm using a rooted Samsung Vibrant on 2.1 with LauncherPro.
[Android Apps and Games] InsaneJester17:
Used this app for a bit, really quick and solid. My only issues are it does not wake the screen when you don't use pop-up, and that it needs more themes. I don't want my phone looking like my old iPhone in the least. But seriously good work!

Also, maybe adding different smile theme sets, as I really like the standard Android smiley's.
[Android Apps and Games] Prof. Yaffle:
Very nice. Very light compared to Handcent. As already suggested, Facebook pictures, default smileys and moving the popup up the screen automatically when the keyboard appears would make me move from Handcent.
[Android Apps and Games] FormelLMS:
Wow, I like this App very much!

It's a bit like the MIUI SMS Application.

If the developer can do a phone.apk like this in MIUI, too?

This looks so good and noone do can do that.

But: On my Nexus, it is very fast, but on my wifes Tattoo it took ten seconds to start this app.
[Android Apps and Games] emelie:
those would be great additions!
[Android Apps and Games] SilentAce07:
I can confirm on my device it is not. Incoming texts are being labeled as 6 hours behind actual time for me.

Android Version: 2.2.1

New update: Version 2.3.340.

That update came out from verizon a few days ago and corrected the sms timestamp issue in its own text messaging app. Unfortunately, GO sms is now screwed up.

Can you look into this for me? Id love to start using go sms. I dont know of anyone else with a Droid X.
[Android Apps and Games] SilentAce07:
Edit: The timestamp thing looks to be working now somehow. Confused as I've tried several times the past couple days. Anyway, thanks a lot for the fix. If it acts up again ill let you know.
[Android Apps and Games] Phoenix Zero:
When can we expect the next update? A day? Two? A week? A month? An approximation would be great! :)

Edit: A couple posts ago I posted a way to combine SMS Notifier and GO SMS to form the ultimate SMS app. Well, apparently SMS Popup + GO SMS is even better. SMS Popup allows you to set all the notification settings you want (LED colors, blink rates, vibration patterns, sounds, etc) for general texts as well as individualized WITHOUT actually enabling their custom popup (if you like GO SMS's popup). It works rather well and now I have no reason to go back to Handcent as that was my main gripe with GO SMS. Enjoy. :)
[Android Apps and Games] WiwiPouPou:
Yes i'seen private for popup but not for statusbar notification !?
[Android Apps and Games] RambJoe:
Wow I love this app! :D

I know its a bit stupid, but, could you make it so it goes back when you release the back button, and not when you press it?

I know it sound dumb but on the Galaxy S, to take a screenshot you hold down the back button, then press home.

Thanks. :)
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
The problem I have with SMS Popup is when you use the quick reply button, the text message to which you're replying to disappears... and that doesn't happen with Handcent or GO SMS popups.
[Android Apps and Games] WiwiPouPou:
SMS notifier is good too, for text hiding but not contact name !

Thanls for the idea ! Now i use go ! :D

[Android Apps and Games] jpen:
is there away to get the SMS Popup's popup to not unlock the screen?
[Android Apps and Games] Phoenix Zero:
Could you elaborate? This doesn't happen for me, unless you mean when you get a new text while replying to another that it closes your keyboard which happens to me. I've been using SMS Popup's pop-ups all day but now I'm switching to GO SMS's because it seems more polished other than the fact that you can't flip to landscape mode. I usually get multiple texts at one time so switching between them in the pop-up is a life saver!
[Android Apps and Games] Phoenix Zero:
You could either 1) Disable "Screen On for Pop-Up" in "Additional Settings" or 2) Try enabling "Restrict Pop-up" so it only pop-ups when the lock screen is engaged (haven't tried it but sounds like it would work).

Let me know if that helped.
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
Say someone texts you, "Hey, what's up?"

As soon as I press the "quick reply" button in SMS Popup, the "Hey, what's up?" disappears and all I see is the text box for my response. In Handcent and GO SMS the message stays and I can keep looking at it while I type my response.

And I agree, the handling of multiple SMS messages in a single popup session is another strong reason for me not to use SMS Popup.

I'd really like to use this great app but i can't get notification sounds working. Other apps like handcent or chompsms work fine, this is the only one which doesn't work, so back to handcent for now.
[Android Apps and Games] secretmethod70:
I know this is a minor issue, but any chance you'll add an option for an HTC style notification bar icon (white envelope)?

I'd also like to echo someone earlier in this thread who pointed out that messages from the same contact using two or more different numbers should all be grouped into one thread.

Thanks for a great product!
[Android Apps and Games] secretmethod70:
Oh, one other thing: Using the default HTC SMS app, I can forward an SMS to my e-mail and it sends as an SMS. Using Go SMS Pro, when I put an e-mail address in as the recipient of a forwarded SMS, it is automatically converted to MMS. Is there any way to change this?
[Android Apps and Games] GuiPoM:
"Envoyer" is the right term. The problem is that the button is too small to display it on one line.

On non pro version of go sms, it worked well, "envoyer" was on one single line.

Note: If "Envoyer" is too long, you can use "Envoi" but this is a noun, not a verb anymore.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Just curious if this supports google voice. I doubt it but a man can dream :) OR if anyone knows of a similar app let me know! Thanks

Can't attach vCard
