Hi There,

I just discover this wonderful app and adopt it immediatly. Great works thx.

It's a bit late so I didn't read the entire topic so sorry if the following sentence may looks redondant :

Bugs (? or not)

- I notice that if the lock pattern is set, we're able to go into gossms without drawing the pattern : just start go sms, quit immediatly and re-enter also immediatly and you're done without security.

- MMS not downloading (and MMS auto-retrieve is set in stock sms app) . Precision, I'm with Orange provider in France, running on miui rom (miui-au 1.2.25 R4 on Desire). It's a problem linked to the miui rom and the only workaround is to change the "useragent" set in the APK (/res/xml/mms_config.xml). I made the change in the stock sms app and am able to download MMS with it but not with go sms. Is there a way you can add an option where we can modify the useragent in your app ?

Thanks a lot and keep the good work.

PS : is there somewhere a link to offer you a cup of coffee or beer ? ^^
[Android Apps and Games] smoczoos:
There is "Thanks" button.

I'm still waiting for answers... ;)

[Android Apps and Games] AnalogXDA:
On an HTC EVO Shift 4G, running GOSMS 2.08 with the stock Messaging app uninstalled (by renaming the apk), GO handles sending/ receiving SMS and sending MMS just fine. However, it can't download the multimedia part of MMS messages automatically or by using the "Download" button.

Thanks again for giving us the option for list-style conversation in all themes!
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, for the first one, we will have a check. for the second one, you are so lucky, we are adding it, v2.09 will have the options, in two days.

Rate 5 stars in market and recommending to your friends are beer for us :)
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, will find time to check the first issue. for the 2nd one, what about class 0? flash message？
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks， The number in screen is not controlled by GO SMS, GO SMS control popup dismissing and notification icon dismissing, it seem they are correct.
[Android Apps and Games] clemme01:
like the app, just change from the stock, there are only one problem, so far, the vibration is missing when reciving a sms. Would also like more themes, even through that i like the default GO SMS theme. :)
[Android Apps and Games] DenDesire:
Looks and feels great. If this had a blacklist option it would be even better
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, widget is on plan.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Sure, you will get the option soon to use 12 hour clocks. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] crackedvenom2:
edit::

thanks! :)

also, i love the pop up feature and have been constantly using it, though the send button is too small in my opinion. i feel like im going to hit close or delete when i go to hit send.
[Android Apps and Games] Bob68128:
Really Like it so far on my DInc!

Few requests that would make it even better imo.

Widget or at least a nubmer badge on the Icon

Ability to import facebook images

Custom ringtones

But other thatn that it's fast, it looks good, and it works great!
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, although I don't agree with you :), but we are continually tweaking the performance.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Sure, on plan, thanks
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, good suggestion. :)
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks for the comment, will add it if more people want this feature.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Can't agree more :)
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
You mean the add contacts " +" button? why do you like the add button ? :)
[Android Apps and Games] ZiCoN:
About the deleted folders...

Not a necessity for me, but have been in the situation a couple of times where it could have been handy.

It's a +1 for me if it isn't a programing hell for the dev...
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, we will check it.
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
Any idea on why I may not be receiving notifications even though I set as ON? :(

Milestone G.O.T 2.2.1 - CM6 Stable.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks for the comment, we will add some options for popup.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Seems good ideas, Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, will check it
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, we provide multi theme for you choice. :)

A dark glass theme that fits with HTC and i would uninstall Handsent
[Android Apps and Games] orlith:
great ! Thx

Sure you'll got 5 stars ^^
[Android Apps and Games] smoczoos:
class 0 - immediate display - that is sms which is shown at once on the display, usually an sms from the operators. Yes, it is known as flash message :)

P.S.: Earlier I was working on v1.9 I think, in 2.08 sms class 0 is no longer duplicated as normal message.

Greets! :)
[Android Apps and Games] nibynoga:
Could it be possible to save a message as a draft even when there's no recipient selected? Stock app does that and it's quite useful feature I think.

Also, 'find sms' doesn't work very well. If there is a short thread it's ok - when I press the search result it takes me to the message with searched word, which appears bold. If the result is in a long thread (more than about 50 tx), I go to the right conversation but to the end of it or just some random message - not the one with the searched term. It would be great to see this fixed, because it's a nice feature.

and things I mentioned before...

Just taking a chance to be heard since happyllj showed up again ; )

Thanks for your hard work!
[Android Apps and Games] GeobMcFly:
yes but why we don't have this bug with the stock SMS app?
[Android Apps and Games] bryant_16:
Is it possible to have elasticity scrolling in Go SMS?
[Android Apps and Games] kenkiller:
Isn't that dependent on whether it's included in ur device/rom in the first place?

I have it on both my SGS and Cyanogenmodded Desire.
[Android Apps and Games] bryant_16:
Oh is it? I thought is dependent on the application itself?
[Android Apps and Games] paramnesya:
Lag since recent update?

Droid X, rooted, stock Froyo 2.2.

Since updating to V2.08, I've noticed a significant amount of lag. I have some long threads (1,000+), which could be part of the problem, but I haven't had lag problems like this previously with Go SMS.

Cleaning up my inbox is certainly possible, but before doing so I wanted to get some feedback and see if it is something else. (I'm a bit of a text hoarder.)

Is anyone else experiencing lag since the recent update?
[Android Apps and Games] dmarden:
I have a few threads with 3 to 7 times that amount and no lag. Sprint Epic 4G (also 2.2).

Good luck.
[Android Apps and Games] Villis87:
Is there any news about unicode support?
[Android Apps and Games] low99:
Is it possible to cancel outgoing messages?
[Android Apps and Games] joe0:
This bug was found on an HTC Desire running Android 2.2.

I just had a chance to test 2.08 on a Samsung Galaxy S, also running 2.2, and the same bug occurs.

Thanks.

pls send me link download GO Sms v2.08 released
[Android Apps and Games] esoomenona:
I installed Go SMS because I was looking for something to completely replace the stock messaging app. (I have an email out to the developer of Handcent SMS at the moment to find out if that app is a complete replacement or dependent on the stock app, but no reply thus far) I had to uninstall this app because I was not getting notifications properly.

Droid running CM6

edit: Also, it didn't seem to cache images and names of contacts properly. When I would switch between apps and come back to Go SMS, if I was in a thread, there would not be a picture or name of the contact. I had to go back to the list of threads to let it re-cache the images, then I would see them. And every time I opened the app, it would take a second or two for all of the images and names to come up. This never happens with Handcent.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks a lot for your good comments, for the common issue, we will try to fix, and for the common requested features, we will try to add it in the feature. but as you know, we could not add all the request, GO SMS is become bloating :)

I am alway looking into XDA to find the common issues and common feature request, but don't have time to reply to each post for now.

Thanks for your understanding and your support.
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
I think Backup of Settings is important enough. :P
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, please state more detailed about the benefit. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Yes, you and all our users will get it in one day :)
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
GO SMS has support to uninstall work without stock app. please read "Important Tips" in Settings carefully. Thanks

As for issue of "switch between apps and come back to Go SMS,...", are there detailed one by one step to reproduce it, thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
Great thanks! ^^
[Android Apps and Games] kenkiller:
Don't people want their sms to be sent out as soon as possible?

Maybe happyllj can add a toggle where the sms "sent" is actually sent out a day later. :D
[Android Apps and Games] kenkiller:
No, ur rom must have it built in.
[Android Apps and Games] esoomenona:
I understand how to uninstall the stock app. My point is that with the notification problems and the cache problems, I wouldn't be able to use this app as a complete replacement.

As for the switching and cache issue: if I was texting, then held the home button and switched to another app (i.e. browser, game, etc.) then did the same and switched back to Go SMS, at the top, where it would say the contacts name, there would just be their phone number, and where their picture would be next to their messages, there would just be a question mark image. So I would have to press back to go to the conversation list and let all the images and names cache again. Though the steps are irrelevant, as the issue seems to be caching the names and images the first time you open the app, because every time I open it, it takes a second or two for the images and names to reappear, as though the app searches for them each time it opens instead of having them cached.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Sorry, my mistake, should be "GO SMS has support to work without stock app. please read "Important Tips" in Settings carefully. Thanks", you can use this app as a complete replacement.

For the cache issue, I cant reproduce it according to your steps. anyone else can reproduce it? Thanks

For the one or two second issue, it is because name and images are loaded asynchronizely with the conversation list, will try to find way to optimize it. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Villis87:
It's needed because i am greek and i can't send an sms consisted of 160 characters, because the greek letters aren't supported. That's why i'd like unicode support ;)

those themes are so gay, man. Come up with manly, awesome themes and then I might decide to use it, as for now, stock sms for droid X

you should make a one similar like droid x stock sms

or this one

im tired of the green bubble style color, i want it in light blue or red like this

androidfans.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Droid-X-SMS-150x150.jpg

that's the only thing is missing, other than that it's the best sms app handscent whatever
[Android Apps and Games] Morsolo:
@dAii7: You realise you can customize the themes, right? In fact, you could make it look near-identical to that Falcon example.

Anyway, as usual, GO SMS is one of the first Apps I install when I re-flash my phone (which I've been doing a lot lately). One of the first (and best) reasons is the built-in Backup/Restore functionality. That's saved my ass a few times. Don't wanna lose a few thousand SMSes.

There's just one glitch that is really annoying me. Since implementing the "Facebook Pictures" feature, not all my contacts have been getting their pictures set. A lot of my contacts have Facebook names that don't match the names in my phone, nor do they keep phone numbers or emails on their Facebook. So I'm left with only a few contacts with pictures.

Can you let the App just pull the pictures from the "People" app? I'm using CM7, so all my contacts are linked straight to their Facebook (even with different names) and everywhere else their pictures appear just fine.

...or am I missing something here?
[Android Apps and Games] iridaki:
When will the next update be released? :-)
[Android Apps and Games] dancer_69:
I just now downloaded the 2.10 version which have updated send options for locale support and Greek SMS Mode!!
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
You get it now :) Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] tjengo:
Where have the German umlaute gone? These letters are just not shown. Makes it really ugly. ;-)
[Android Apps and Games] tjengo:
Sorry. Wrong forum. It's for go launcher. :-)
[Android Apps and Games] iridaki:
I installed the latest update, went into Send Settings and enabled locale support for Greek and I get 160 characters per sms.

However, the message is still sent at 70-characters parts!! :(

So if I type 150 characters in the text-box it shows 150/1 but in fact it is sent and charged as 3 messages!

So... thank you for the great work but, when you have the time to, look into it a little more!

I have gathered some information to help you with this.

1. Some guy in a greek forum tweaked an iphone sms app to change the unicode mapping to support greek characters.

So, I attach the file here, hoping that it can be useful.

2. The Android app Handcent SMS has flawlessly solved the issue, so you might want to look into what they've done.

3. Here is the default GSM Character Set.

So, what needs to be implemented is an on-the-fly converter for unicode characters. They need to be converted to 7bit encoding.

Thanks for listening to our feedbacks!
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
Awesome! Thanks! :) Now I can go ahead and test GO SMS *

again

On the new update I still get the same problem from the last one it vibrates while I'm talking on the phone and I don't have that option check in the setting can you please fix
[Android Apps and Games] HideYoKids:
I didn't feel like I needed to replace the original SMS app, trie this out and I haven't gone back. Love it. And the new update is nice too.
[Android Apps and Games] Product F(RED):
Suggestion:

New default icon (for the app itself)? Maybe implement different-styled widgets that look like the icon, but have an unread counter (Sense-style Messaging icon with the green press-background, AOSP style-messaging icon with the orange press-background, etc). You can put these on the market separately like themes.
[Android Apps and Games] joe0:
Bug: selecting one thread in inbox seems to select another.

I believe this bug has been around since I started using GO SMS (not sure what version; < 1.9, I think). It feels pretty serious to me because it's an inconsistent, unexpected hiccup in the UI experience, and it has caused me to accidentally send messages to the *wrong recipient*.

Even after using the app for a few months, I still can't work out exact steps to reproduce. Simply, it seems to occur when GO is a little sluggish: tap a conversation in the inbox, and inexplicably, you're presented with a different conversation. I think they tend to be other conversations in close proximity.

Could the developers shed any light on this? Or, better yet, provide a fix? It's one of the most frustrating bugs for me, and most of the others that I've experienced have been squashed. :-)

Many thanks.

I installed go sms and I love it. The only problem is that I recently changed my rom to mikfroyo 4.5, now every time I get a pop up text, and my screen rotates I get fc. Is this a rom problem or a app problem, and are there any solutions.

Using the evo 4G btw.

Sorry to say, receiving MMS with the stock Messages app uninstalled still doesn't work on the HTC EVO Shift 4G, even when MMS settings are hand-entered (copied from stock app before uninstalling).
[Android Apps and Games] delicb:
Great app, but am I the only one that finds that new feature for showing only contacts with mobile numbers does not work? I think that this is a great feature and I need it, but the app is still showing all the numbers.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks for the comment. GO SMS　already has the icon widget. you mean we should separate it as a program and put it in market? I guest it can't overwrite the app default icon; two icon will exist.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
In v2.1, we have fixed one case that may cause the issue you mentioned: when you are selecting the thread and at the same time, there is new messages coming. please try, and it will be perfect if you could help us to find out the reproduce steps. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] quitlee:
v2.10, THIS IS THE UPDATE I WAS LOOKING FOR!!

The only thing that's keeping me from completely falling in love with this app, is a widget quick reply function!!!

Good work devs!
[Android Apps and Games] dancer_69:
@Happyllj

I confirm that GREEK SMS MODE doesn't work.

The characters counter stays in 160 as long as input only greek characters,

but when I input any character which is same and in latin alphabet(eg ABOH...) the counter changes to 70 characters.

Please fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] tehloxely:
We need an option to backup our inbox settings asap.
[Android Apps and Games] BryanChung:
There is already in v2.10. Check Settings >> GO SMS Service >> Settings Backup and Recovery
[Android Apps and Games] nibynoga:
I'm glad to see after the latest update that the font for 'I said'/'he said' is back to regular, not italic :) I must say, the conversation look reached perfect for me (using dark theme with list style an custom background), also the scrolling feels smoother. Good job on that and thank you for backup option :) (still, the issues I mentioned before aren't solved, but I'll be patient ;))

I'm wondering if the app will be translated to other languages. I think some user in the Polish market wrote in a comment that he made a translation and it will be available in future updates, don't know if it was true... I don't mind English version, but I would like to install GO on my mom's phone and she wouldn't handle it in this language ;)

Thanks and keep up the good work!

True, I don't see it working either. What keyboard do you use? I use HTC_IME, it doesn't work neither with this one nor with the stock one. Although HTC has the "forbidden chars", the "only in sms" option doesn't work on my X8 so I was hoping for GO :|

also the new update did not stop the app from resetting randomly and acting as if the app has just been installed.
[Android Apps and Games] tebower:
What does it mean when I go into GOSMS settings, and there is a little red (update) next to Appearance, Send, Go SMS Service, and Important Tips settings? Is this just noting that there have been updates? If so, can this be removed? It'd be nice if the text disappeared after I entered that menu one time.

[Android Apps and Games] CoyoteRed:
Never mind. I found what I was looking for. It's not the same as in the help section.
[Android Apps and Games] Dratini:
The colours are very strange. They seem to be on their own setting when I try to change the colours, for instance even when the colours are the same setting, they do not get any brighter when I choose the dark theme.

I'd like to have the upper bars thinner, and the ablity to change their colour. You can put New SMS in the menu, or simply remove that bar, I have a photo icon, but no photos in the conversation setting. Its largely useless to me, but I like seeing the phone number there, as well as the ability to call someone!

It a style preference, but I don't like the way the bubbles are shaped. They don't appeal to me, I came from ChompSMS and I loved those.

Defining our own smileys would also be nice, I don't ever use a smiley with a nose.

Features I would like to see are counting the amount of characters in quick reply, as well as the ability to use custom PNGs for the icon. The first one is a lot more useful, and the second is for fun. I don't get how to use batch mode, do I select them, then click the compose button in inbox? Not sure if you have a wildcard, but it would be awesome to have it for their name.

This is a very fast application. Its very powerful, its got more features than most others, and is almost perfect. I love it. Its my default SMS messaging application.

Thank you!

In addition to this, when the phone is asleep, the popup shows up, then the phone goes back to sleep. When I wake it up, the notifications and counts on the icon are all gone as if I had viewed the text..which I have not...annoying..having to use SMS Popup (with no actual popup - just"Notifications" enabled, so the notification area icon shows) -- the SMS Popup notification stays until I actually view the text. I had this same problem about three releases (on GOSMS) back...

This is the second update in a row where my Smileys are all gone. I have NO option available to insert a Smiley.

When I press "open" on the pop up notification it brings me to the compose screen to the sender without the previous message showing up. It happens to certain contacts it seems. Look at screen shots for more detail.

People complaining about Greek and other non-Latin alphabets only splitting at 70 characters: It's not a bug. For SMS messages, if you're using non-Latin (basically non English alphabet) lettering, you can only fit 70 characters per message.

Email thred/message option

It'd be great to have an option to email a message or a whole thread, like XLsms

Sometimes I need to be able to forward a thread (or a message to someone, but I can't do it easily with GoSMS.

I like Go SMS for it's UI -- it has the best looking iPhone-like theme of them all.
[Android Apps and Games] dancer_69:
This is true, but there is a solution for that which make a convertion of unicode letters to latin(for all letters which are the same unidcode and latin). This solution used for many years and for different devices and platforms. It's not a bug, but is a future which is important for non-latin languages.
