I have yet to be able to get Facebook photos to sync with this app yet :( it's a shame because I'd really like to use this.
[Android Apps and Games] kaos217:
v 1.8 installed.

I have had an issue that will not go away ever since the 1.69 release.

I cannot send or receive any MMS.

SMS works without issue.

Sending: MMS message sent result in an animated green arrow over an envelope. This will stay like this indefinitely... even days.

Receiving: When accessing newly incoming MMS, I see a download button, when pressed, message states that 'download was unsuccessful'.

The work-around?

I must go into stock message app and select 'retry or resend'.

Then the message will be sent.

Does anyone have this issue?

Feedback from the developer remains unanswered after several requests for help.

Thanks.

is it possible to disable the horrible ichat style bubble conversations?
[Android Apps and Games] Hippie459MN:
Well, I might go back to handcent unless there is a way of making GoSMS not compress an image so much on my HTC Hero. It seems to compress (resizes) them like the stock messaging app and makes the pictures really small. :(

Handcent would compress them but not even close to how much the stock app and now GoSMS does and that is a big thing for me as I send a lot of pictures and I hate it when everyone tells me the pictures were so small.

And yes, I have the message size turned up to 1mb and still no go. Oh well...
[Android Apps and Games] phoffer:
Settings -> Appearance Settings -> Theme Selection -> Dark Theme

You can then change all the colors as well, under Appearance -> Inbox Customization and also Conversation customization
[Android Apps and Games] JustRuin:
Three things:

1. The compose and call buttons at the upper right hand corner of the app are glossy on I think all themes even though none of the themes have anything else that's glossy. It would be great if you guys could just make the buttons matte, to match the rest of the app.

2. Consider this scenario:

-Pop-up notifications are active.

-GO SMS is running and focused on screen.

-Phone goes to sleep either by being idle or pressing power button.

If I receive a message while my phone is asleep like this, and I wake it (or it wakes itself via GO SMS option), after unlocking, the pop up notification shows up, even though i'm still in the app. This is even more annoying when I'm already on the thread of the person that I'm talking to. Not a HUGE deal, but still kind of annoying (I think).

3. I would also like to see a selection of recently used contacts when writing a composing a new message.
[Android Apps and Games] Product F(RED):
Does this latest update fix the issue where messages are sent late or not at all even though it says they are? I didn't have this issue a few versions back.
[Android Apps and Games] nathanvader:
Please, in the next version add the option to select the text input method as a choice in the implementation of SMS stock. To choose between GSM or Unicode alphabet, because letters with accents reduced the total number of sms characters from 160 to 70!
[Android Apps and Games] drsood:
I have noticed that when i "select ringtone for incoming messages" using "music" setting, my mob doesnt sound on incoming sms..

but if i do the same with "system ringtone" -> "soundpicker" -> "music library" and then select a ringtone, it works

is it a bug?
[Android Apps and Games] kaos217:
I am having the exact same issue.

Messages may be sent days later, or I receive an MMS from weeks ago. Like you, I had no issue back in version 1.6x

Who knows, releases seem to be coming out bi-weekly now that jump from version 1.8 --> 1.88 ?

I hope there is more focus on core functionality than themes and glossy buttons.
[Android Apps and Games] kaos217:
3. If trouble with receiving MMS, please go to the stock SMS's settings, and enable the MMS auto-retrieve

Ok, Thanks, but this advice has been around since the earliest version of the app.

There is no elaboration or suggestion if this option is enabled and you are still have issues sending/receiving MMS.

3 features I would like to see in GoSMS v1.89

-MMS sending working

-MMS receiving working

-Favorite contact quick pick list (most used contacts)
[Android Apps and Games] sag7392:
Maybe someone can answer this. In the popup window, when a second message comes in from the same sender, there is an indicator at the top right hand corner that reads 1/2 with an arrow. However, when pressed nothing happens. Then you have to open the app to see it. Is that normal or am I doing something wrong?

Folks - i sent an email to GO SMS team but no response yet, probably something easy but i cant actually see anything to forward a text message onto someone else or am i missing something here?

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] sectorek:
long press on sms that you wont to forward and then from pop-up menu you will have options:

"Delete Message

Call

Forward

View message details

Lock Message

Add to quick text

Copy message text"

Hope this helps.

Today, I had to re-install GO SMS and I'm unable to send messages. Default Droid X's text message programs works fine and I'm also able to receive messages in GO SMS but not send. Any ideas how can I fix this problem.

Why are MMS images so small?

I have an 8mpx camera on my Evo, must it compress it to nearly a thumbnail?

Is that GoSMS or the native stock message app?

appreciated thanks mate:)
[Android Apps and Games] Product F(RED):
I might downgrade back to like 1.60 if I have a Titanium Backup of it. 1.70+ just caused issues. 1.80 says it sends texts, but it either doesn't or it does it really late. I didn't try 1.88 because it didn't say anything about fixing that problem.
[Android Apps and Games] extraducksauce:
ugh, i upgraded from 1.80 to 1.88 and ALL my text messages are gone from both go sms and the stock app. stock froyo rom, mt4g. help??

I love the app.

Is it possible to get a flat/matte notification? Something that looks similar the the 2.3 messaging app's icon?
[Android Apps and Games] SK328CI:
dont know if anyone else is experiencing this, but random times i would write a message and send it, then it the back arrow on the phone and it would take the last word from the last sent message and create a draft for that thread. happens randomly and a bit annoying.

any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] Sian:
Hi

Anyone else experienced the 'unable to type in pop up incoming text message window text box' issue?? Is this fixed in 1.88? I haven't tried it cos' I've switched back to Handcent SMS as it now comes with Emoji icons support!!

I kinda like to include smiley in my smses esp with my wife, who is using an iphone. Unfortunately with GoSMS I can't send smiley icon to her, and she can't to me (unless she knows the symbol to type).

But I still like GoSMS design, which is nicer I think. So, emoji icon support will be included next time... Oh yes, with this, you need to include the number of character typed in the pop up incoming text window cos' emoji icon kinda reduced the length to 70 characters, instead of 160. So, need to know the length..
[Android Apps and Games] SK328CI:
ah just figured out how to replicate this. type message in portrait mode, send message, go to landscape mode, and the last word shows up in the input box.

[Android Apps and Games] professoroak:
Love this app! Is there anyway to change the notification logo on the notification bar? And will user-created themes ever be implemented into a pseudo-market sort of database? I like how there's a lot to customize, but sometimes I feel too lazy to deal with everything and would rather have a more creative individual come up with something more elegant/cool. :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] dmarden:
If I pull my phone off a dock (which in turn closes the dock app), the GoSMS pop up switches to unknown and potentially creates a stuck outgoing text.
[Android Apps and Games] kaos217:
Everyone seems to want cosmetic features implemented...

Meanwhile, I'm just trying to be able to send & receive MMS consistently without having to wait hours before it will send.

Again... why is the MMS image so small?

It is the size of a thumbnail.
[Android Apps and Games] ASSMO:
I LOVE THE APPLICATION!

ADD BETTER NOTIFICATION ICONS PLLLEEEAAASSEE! And a way to just change the color of the top bar! Those are the only things that got me doubting this app! Thank you!

The Notification Icon is definitely a biggy***********

Thus I am stuck with the default theme...for example.

Individual Notification Issue with 1.88

I have been able prior to this release to add email addresses to the individual notifications area while viewing the thread involving that email address.

The option to add individual notifications from the contacts search view does not show email addresses at all so I can't add them from there.

With this new version I am no longer able to add email addresses via thread view. I chose individual from thread view and then choose notifications and the app just bumps me back to the thread.

Is this a bug being worked on or you phasing out the ability to use email addresses in the individual notifications area? :(

Anyone else seeing this?

Great app otherwise.

product suggestions

Hello

I have been using GOSMS for about a week now and am coming from Handcent. I would like to make the following suggestions:

1) A way to dismiss popups without having it be considered viewed. For clarification have a means to make the popup message go away without having the message be marked as read.

2) Have a smiley face button on the popup window to allow users to select smiley faces

3) I haven't typed a message longer then 160 chars yet in GOSMS but Handcent has a setting that allows users to select how to break the messages up i.e. number of characters, number of characters + word, etc I like the number of characters + word this way a message won't be split in the middle of a word. I am not sure how GOSMS handles breaking up the message but breaking it up so that a word isn't split would be cool

4) continue to work on speeding up the launch of the app, decreasing it's cpu usage, battery usage, install footprint, and main memory usage

5) I am not sure if I am going to explain this properly so I hope you will understand what I am saying. Now that GOSMS has a ringtone picker that can access the audio files on the sdcard it would be nice to be able to utilize that ringtone picker via other apps so that other apps can access the audio files on the sdcard. Handcent is able to do this if you want a reference.

Empty Popup Box with No Associated Message

Randomly I am getting sms popups via the app for unknown sender with a time of 7 pm even though it could be anytime. Its not a real message as its never in the native messaging app.

I have already cleared the message store several times and installed then reinstalled gosms with no luck getting rid of the false alert! :(

Any help would be appreciated!

So I was using Hancent SMS and decided to try GOSMS and its very nice but not for me. after messing with settings on GoSMS and unisntalling my hancent messages come in out of order... all my incoming messages have a time stamp of about 7 hrs behind current time. I installed Go SMS and set the order to when messages come in or out and that fixes the problem on hancent... but as soon as i delete it.. it will do the same thing.Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] walk.away:
I think I may have found a bug. When selecting the resend option if a message has failed it will sometimes (quite often actually) send the previous message that has been received, rather than the failed sent message.

[Android Apps and Games] Hippie459MN:
The stock messaging app does this as well. On my Hero it does anyways on 2.1 When I was on 1.5 it did not compress the images at all.

Also, That was a huge hangup for me with GoSMS so I did end up going back to Handcent as it does compress the images but not near as bad as the stock app or GoSMS and with the number of images I send it was a huge issue for me. I also have made many comments here about it and always went unanswered.

I have the same issue with both GoSMS and Handcent. When on WiFi for some reason it just wont send and sometimes receive MMS messages. I have not tried the stock messaging app to see if the same happens but it is frustrating.

One proposal: I don't like the bubble conversation style. I like the one in the dark. Can you please add more themes with these style? I like minimalistic themes like the SimpleStripe, but the bubbles are annoying for me.

[Android Apps and Games] bommel0815:
confirmed.

I repartitioned and reflashed and now use Voodoo kernel and it now works.

the combination with Speedmod seems to be the problem (or the use of EXT4 for dbdata)

[Android Apps and Games] cableguynoe:
Converting to MMS

Hello,

Not sure if this has been address, but here goes anyway.

I love Go SMS, but one feature I miss from both Handcent is converting text messages to MMS automatically.

So if I type in a very long message in text(what I actually do almost on a daily basis is copy a very long parragraph from another source and paste it on to the messager so I can send to several people), this apps sends as many messages. It breaks it up so it is very hard to read. I am talking about 15-20 different messages.

Handcent automatically converts it to MMS before the message is sent. That way it arrives in one nice long message.

If there is a setting for this, please point it out for me. I looked but did not find it.

If not, is there any way to implement this into your app?

I really love this app, but this might be a dealbreaker for me, since I'll still have to keep handcent around and use it at least once daily.
[Android Apps and Games] LAVir:
It's very strange, because I have Darky's ROM 9.1, last version of the Speedmod K12T, switched on all of fixs and partition EXT4 everywhere and I have not any problems with GO SMS.
[Android Apps and Games] Hippie459MN:
That and how much it compresses the images when sending pictures is way to much. It will compress the images so tiny. Handcent compresses them as well but nearly as much. I gave GoSMS a month of solid use and I ended up going back to handcent mainly for them 2 reasons.

I will admit, GoSMS is an awesome messaging app, Handcent seems to work better for my needs at the moment. I will continue to follow the changes though. :)
[Android Apps and Games] bobusik89:
thank You man for that :)
[Android Apps and Games] kashifsiddique:
Please create an option that allows the user to change the size (height/width) that MMS images are automatically re-sized to when sending!

The default size is 640x480 but I rather have something larger such as 1024x768

In the file: com.jb.mms-1.apk\res\xml\mms_config.xml

Create some options in your app that changes these values:

<int name="maxImageHeight">480</int>
<int name="maxImageWidth">640</int>
[Android Apps and Games] kaos217:
I think not just resolution dimensions, but actual file size as well.

I don't understand how/why MMS settings within Android & Go SMS have the option to increase MMS to 2MB, but I have never been able to send/receive anything more 50k.

The compression is ridiculous.

smileys not possible to add on cursor position?

hi,

i like gosms very much, but what is holding me back from switching from handcent to gosms is that when i want to insert a smiley by using + button and smiley is that smileys are always inserted on the end of the message. no matter where i placed the cursor.

is there any solution?

thanks,

Either since updating my Sony Ericsson X10 to the latest firmware or updating to the latest GoSMS (both happened simultaneously so I can't tell which is it) I'm not getting a Notification LED for new messages, either with custom or standard coloured LED, anyone else getting this?
[Android Apps and Games] saylevee:
Three suggestions

First of all I have to say I love love love this app. Its simple, clean and very friendly on the eyes. Just three things to say:

1. Am unable to blacklist numbers in individual settings. Security settings just tell me my blacklist is empty.

2. PLEASE can you add the option to "show message count" so that I can disable it! I feel seeing all these numbers next to names takes away the streamlined feeling of this app.

Finally, I've voted - please erase this option as its kinda redundant once the vote has been cast.

That's all I have to say. Good job guys.

I own a SE X10mini (if that helps).

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] nibynoga:
Are you just testing the notification and don't get the LED blinking or is there no blink when you actually receive a message? Because ever since the 2.1 update the LED shows only when the screen is off, it does not blink when the screen is on. That is the case with X8 at least, but I believe it's the same with X10.
