Ditto! Wanna here something even WEIRDER??? My FATHER today got a message on his phone and the sender showed up as FWB person who texts ME. I'm like, "WTF?!?"

And no, this person doesn't know my dad's cell #. Interestingly, I did have an outgoing message sitting on my phone addressed to my dad from this morning, and I had one addressed to my friend. If somehow the app merged them in some other world, nexus of the universe freak thing, then that's a first.

I don't know in what version it changed, but sending mms pics stopped working around Thanksgiving (if i am not mistaken). The new update forces you to choose a picture effect then flattens the image and removes the motion from .gif files. :confused:That is a no-go for me so I switched to Handscent. I could not find any older versions until now. Thank you. There will be no updates for me now. I will stick with this version.

What sort of information does the developers of this App have access to?

Please bear with me here.

1. I have never used an SMS replacement app before now. I would really like to know what sort of information this app sends back to its developers. It's permission list seems too vast. Is it secure?

2. The only reason I want this app is to have the ability to select a particular ringtone for SMS from certain contacts. Is there any other way to achieve this without downloading an SMS replacement app? (This type functionality is baked into BB OS. It is time for Android OS to have this baked).

(FWIW, I have a Galaxy Nexus ICS - unrooted stock)

Anyone with a Motorola Droid Razr having issues with the background not continuing down the message list in Go SMS?

All I get is a grey background after the last message, where on my old Galaxy S phone the themes background would fill the page. I've tried to email Go SMS about it, but never got a response. I even installed an older version of the app to see if it would fix it, but I guess its just something with the Razr...

There's a new upgrade. Hope it fixes some bugs every ones talking about!

[Android Apps and Games] pvsub:
Speaking as a developer of an SMS forwarding app that depends on being able to see incoming text messages as they come in, can you please consider not consuming the SMS, so other apps can see it as well? We found a solution to this that does not require the user to do anything in Go SMS, but I know almost every SMS-based app has this issue.

PS. Your app is way cool :)
[Android Apps and Games] inline6power:
yes using 4.0.3 also does not work on 4.0.2

Love this app, it should definately be your choice when stock sms app just doesn`t work for you anymore.
[Android Apps and Games] Karlson2k:
First of all I'd like to say thanks for this great app!

But one thing is very annoying for me. I use sometimes stock SMS app too (it’s integrated with stock contacts app) and SMS-Banking app (this app reads SMS messages from banks, process it internally and marks it as read). But even if SMS is already read, GO SMS notification isn’t cleared automatically and should be cleared manually or tapped in notifications list.

For example Chomp SMS is watching unread SMS and clears itself notification automatically if SMS was read in Chomp SMS or in any other SMS apps.
[Android Apps and Games] Karlson2k:
Just checked - GO SMS Pro widged was updated to reflect unread SMS count event if SMS was read in other app but notification wasn't updated.
[Android Apps and Games] slupz:
but when the program is installed on the sd card, also moves in the sd card or SMS continues to keep them on the phone memory?

Did u disable Go Chat?
[Android Apps and Games] I'M NOT YELLING:
There is no option to disable it. Have Go running in lite mode.

Of course there is. Go to "user defined "mode and uncheck it there ;)

[Android Apps and Games] xxhelle:
Hi,

In the latest version, it says that you are able to screenshot go sms. I was wondering how you could do that? I couldn't find the option anywhere in the app.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] KennyLegend:
You can screenshot anytime anyway ;)
[Android Apps and Games] I'M NOT YELLING:
Yes. I really wish they'd strip out a lot of the bloat out of this application. Sucks that our options for SMS apps on Android are bare thin.

When will be available a solution for the issue with the private inbox password not recognized on ICS? Or at least a solution for resetting the password?

And as a request:

Thank you!

OK now I got that bloody pop up say to tell the person about go SMS when they are using go SMS. This has to be one of the dumbest things. With all the BS being added I am half tempted to use the stock messaging app even with all the bugs

Is there any way to disable the notice center? I keep getting notices about new themes and other crap.

I've read about other users getting more intrusive pop up spam. Fortunately, I haven't seen this yet. I love Go SMS, but if they're going to spam their users, I'll delete it and move to something else.

---------- Post added at 06:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:44 PM ----------

Okay, I apparently spoke too soon. I just got spammed to tell my friends about Go SMS.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'll make this clear as it applies to me.

Happyllj, Either the spamming goes, or I do.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
That makes 2 of us. I am testing out handcent as well now. I will even lose all the options and stick with stock if this keeps up. Not only is it a PITA but it is making me hate using my SMS
[Android Apps and Games] Larkine:
Make that three. You've got the right idea, Zelendel. I'll grab Handcent later tonight also and see how they're measuring up nowadays. I'm not putting up with this crap from Go SMS, either.

[Android Apps and Games] eortizr:
Love this app, but one thing that bothers me is that every time I send a picture that was taken in Portrait mode, go sms sends it in Landscape, therefore the other person receives a picture sideways..... How can this be fix?

[Android Apps and Games] suprdave2:
How the hell do you get rid of the notices about new themes, and the stupid blue "Go SMS User" crap when someone else is using the app? I don't care about either of those, I just want an SMS app.

About to start looking at others....
[Android Apps and Games] Haphim:
That's exactly what's making so many of us angry, and is causing us to start looking at other sms apps.

If you haven't been reading some of the recent posts, it gets worse. Now, Go SMS gives you balloon notices suggesting that you tell your friends about Go SMS too.

They've gone too far, and if they don't get rid of the spam, give a way to disable the notice center, and get rid of the blue "Go SMS User" tag, I'm uninstalling not only Go SMS, but every other Go product, and I'm not coming back to them ever again.

If you feel similarly, make sure Happyllj knows it!
[Android Apps and Games] suprdave2:
I happen to have a backup of Go SMS 3.65, which does not have the "go sms user" notice crud in it. I just uninstalled 4.21 and re-installed this version. Let me know if you want the download link :)
[Android Apps and Games] mbutandola:
I might go against the flow here but I don't get that many spams. Besides, the apps they provide being free, how do you expect them to get the resources to keep development alive? They need to advertise about their products somehow, don't they? :).

Pop ups appear when there are some new themes and you can easily ignore them. It's not as if there were pop up windows flying around. When you get commercials right in the middle of a thrilling episode of 24 (shame they stopped that series) it is annoying. But hey! We get to watch it for free. Well this is my opinion.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
I wouldn't mind it. Please do
[Android Apps and Games] Haphim:
I have a 3.x version installer as well. But this is going beyond that. They are ticking me off enough for me to consider avoiding anything made by them.

---------- Post added at 01:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 AM ----------

They make money off of the themes. That doesn't mean they need to ram them down existing users' throats.

It's not as if those popups only show up every couple of months. I was getting them every couple of days. They were already starting to wear on my nerves, and the blue label to indicate that a person used Go SMS pushed that even further. But the balloon popups telling me to tell my friends about Go SMS was the last straw.

The app may be free, but that doesn't justify this level of spamming.

Look at it this way, Go SMS has a pretty darn good following right now. Is this because they spammed their users telling them to tell their friends? No, those spams didn't exist before 4.x. The reason they got a good following is because they made a good product. Companies keep forgetting that the key to getting a good customer base is to make a worthy product, not to alienate your customers by annoying the heck out of them pushing advertising to people who are already using your product.

Go SMS had excellent reviews, people who used it sung its praises on forums all over the internet. *That's* how to get a customer base.

Now what are users going to be saying when people new to android are asking for app recommendations? I'll tell you what I'm going to be saying - Go SMS used to be the best. Then the developers got greedy and started spamming their own users, and now it's a PITA piece of software, and they should look for apps made by a developer that actually respects their customers.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
This is the only thing I use of the go apps. Even had my entire team swap to this, but if it doesn't get fixed we all are gonna move to something else. Already spoke with the developer for handcent to let them know that if we do switch it will be almost 100 people all at once lol
[Android Apps and Games] Haphim:
You beat me to it. I was going to let the developer of handcent know what was going on, and that if he played his cards right, he has a good potential get a massive switch of users from Go SMS to Handcent.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks all,

We got the concern, and will try to reduce the new theme notification; and for the "GO SMS user", the design intent is to indication you that your friend may be using GO SMS too, so that you both can use GO Chat to send text, picture, voice etc freely; any better solution to realize this design intent? we are willing to listen. Thanks for your support
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
Thanks, we are always listening, and are always working hard to get the right way,

"The right way is never easy, The easy way is never right", I like the word :)
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
One of the main issues is the app telling us to suggest it to our friends which doesn't even work as I still get it for people that are using it. To be honest for most the people I know this is only an SMS replacement and the rest of the features are not used. I would advise am option to disable everything if the user wanted. Like say the go mms option being default. With data limits being applied to all carriers not only this a pain when the image has to be resent but makes for more hassle when using the app. I understand you guys are trying and will give the next update a shot only if you give the option to shut off the other option. My advice would be to turn them into plugin option that can be downloaded and installed along aide the app. I mean really 10 mbs is a bit big. Even the sense messaging app isn't that big.
[Android Apps and Games] KennyLegend:
I'm in this boat too. I'm not getting pop ups and I'm running the latest update. Only thing I've done is disable go chat.

To the devs:

A way to disable pop ups etc would probably keep people using go SMS.

Personally i love go SMS and as i said earlier i for some reason haven't been getting pop ups, but i would probably stop using it if it was to start happening.

All people want is to use the app without being annoyed or pestered ....simple.

Thanks and Keep up the good work Happllj & the rest of Go team ;)
