Geotagging and Call Log - Vibrant Themes and Apps

I currently flashed the Team Whiskey Bionix-V flash (Froyo) and have some issues with it, well more so with Froyo apparently. Firstly, I'd REALLY like to disable geotagging. Disabling GPS and Wireless networks does not disable geotagging, anybody have an app to do this when taking a picture? Also, does anybody know of an app that will fix it so that the Call log history will allow me to toggle between ALL calls and SMS? I can do missed calls, received calls and dialed calls, but not _all_ calls and it's driving me nuts. D:

As for ur second request what I do is contacts >history > menu. It allows you to choose what to see.

[Q] use regular messages vs google voice

So as much as I love Google voice alot of times it won't send my messages or I receive them really delayed.... I'd like to be able to receive these texts as regulars texts and just use the gvoice app for VM... Any ideas on what to do here? However I like that now gvoice is integrated with my phone that when I do send regular texts they come from my gvoice number
Strangely I can't seem to find a setting for that at all.
I think the reason you're getting delayed texts is because you're in an area where you have aren't getting a data connection, and when that happens I've found that your messages don't send and you won't receive your messages until way later, unless you manually hit refresh after you internet access again.
Unfortunately I haven't tried this myself because I enjoy using GV for texts, but you could try reinstalling the app. I know that during the first time you start it, there's a setup which asks if you want to integrate it and all these other things. Hopefully it will give you that option again when you reinstall it. Other than that, I don't really see any options that would let you disable texts alone.
I haven't found that setting either. Google voice is awesome and all but I had to remove because of the delayed texts.

Go on the GV website. In the top-right corner you will see your phone number, click on it. That takes you to the settings page. There you will see a section that says "Forward Calls To" and you will see your number with Sprint/GV integrated next to it. Click edit under your number there and select "Receive text messages on this phone." You might have to stop the GV app from notifying you.
I did this and now I can walk around with data off (AMAZING battery life) and still send/receive texts through the sense messaging app (Sprint network instead of data connection). They still get archived by Google so Sprint must be forwarding them to Google.
I actually have to use the app. At my college campus I have absolutely no service at all. But the campus has a canpus-wide WiFi signal so I use that to send me texts...I really hope sprint can get some service over here

[Q] New Voice Mail Indicator Not Working

I updated my phone to the 2.10.605.1 ROM and it seems that since I've done it, whenever I receive a new voicemail message, the indicator in the title bar is not appearing so I have to rely on the missed call info to force me to check my voicemail.
Has anyone else seen this and have any ideas on how to resolve. And YES, I've checked my voicemail settings and the indicator is set to on.
Thanks for the help.
Ty.
It's a known issue with the gingerbread leaks.

What they said ^
I setup Google Voice to combat this problem and I am SO glad I did! I love GV so much so that even though I am back on froyo (with working voicemail notifications) I still use it!

Haptic Feedback vibrate issue and Go SMS pro Issue

2 Issues Ive seen with the evo LTE so far
My haptic feedback vibration seems to rattle the phone. Its normal on phone calls and SMS receives, but it feels loose during haptic feedback. Anyone else's liek this?
Second issue is with Go SMS Pro. I keep getting text messages where Im receiving a message from "matt" but in my go sms inbox it shows "sue" as the name. If i watch the notification bar while the message is received it is correct, but its mixing them up with the wrong contacts in the inbox. Anyone else see this? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but its still doing it. I did notice if i task kill Go SMS, then restart, the messages revert to their proper names, but it starts doing it again.

i have the haptic feedback issue as well. When texting, i initially thought that sound feedback was on, but it was the vibration motor clicking for some reason.
I hope its not a big deal..gonna be annoying in class

1 - Same here, I didn't notice it yesterday but the more I use the phone the more vibration it has. It's funny that this was posted, i was just thinking if the phone is going to vibrate apart.
what about the go sms issue?
I thought I was the only one. I noticed the vibration issue too, I had this problem with my OG EVO and I tried to take it in to Sprint but it was too loud in the store for them to hear it. Anyone know how we can deal with this?

There appears to be an issue with all 3rd party SMS apps working with the ICS operating system.

My vibration is also very loud had to turn it off for all notifications and all haptic feedback, now I noticed I have a have a dead pixel on the very top of my screen to, anything else wanna go wrong?
I think I'm having the vibration issue as well. Has anyone's gotten worse since first noticing the issue?
When it comes to Galaxy S2 ICS 4.0.3, the problem is that GoSMS uses vibration settings from "vibrate on screen tap"
Solution:
- System settings>Sound>Vibration intensity> and set "vibrate on screen tap" as you like.
- If intense vibration on screen tap bothers you, you can completely disable it at the bottom of the sound section (..>Sound); just uncheck "Vibrate on screen tap".
I use a Perfect Keyboard which allows you to adjust the vibration level for the keys (along with many other customizations.) As far as GoSMS, I used it for a year up until last week and switched to Chomp. I didn't have issues as you describe with Go, but whenever I would send an MMS, it would repeatedly show up as a draft that I would have to remove over and over. I also grew tired of the bloatware with Go and constantly being signed into GoChat, which would screw up my texting. Their themes are loaded with airpush as well and now they are charging for features that were once free, such as contact pictures, private box and backup. Chomp is a much cleaner experience with all the features I need, including Facebook contact pics, without the garbage of Go.

[Q] SMS doesn't always send ?

Ive noticed that when sending certain sms messages, the messages will keep spooling and not send unless I delete and resend it. Seems to happen at random times, even with no signal it should still send when it gets a signal right ? Using the Handcent SMS
Same thing happens to me.
I had the exact same issue. I stopped using Handcent and the issue went away. I've never had this issue on any of my last 5 android devices. Really frustrating since I have used handcent as long as I can remember.
+1 - Yep, me too! Even using GVoice + Sprint integration, too!
Also, if I restart my phone all the texts will magically send. Anyone else find this to be the case?
I also noticed that I can't get voice to text to work. I speak, select the line that reflects what I said....and then nothing. It doesn't paste it in. Any one else?

I'm having the same problem. texts i sent after and before the unsent ones send fine. using go SMS pro

i have this same issue with handcent as well
I used to always have issues with handcent. When I had the Hero none of the MMS would send. So since then I have been using Go SMS Pro.
I am using Go Sms and I have the same issue. It seems if I am receiving a text at the same time, mine won't send and I have to delete it and start over. Also, when I send an MMS, it will create drafts of the same thing that I have to remove. My voice to text on swiftkey won't work either. I will have to try it out on stock.

I was having the same problem and what I thought was happening was the phone was closing Handcent (multitasking issue) before the text sent. I don't currently have my EVO LTE to prove that this is the case.

It's all network improvements boys and girls. If you been experiencing dropped calls, network busy tones, missed, super late, or texts being rejected; its due to nv work.

How can you be so sure? I started experiencing this the day I got this phone.
I have the same issues. Unfortunately, the only time I actually get text on time and/or send text reliably is when I use Google voice. I hate Google voices SMS setup, its ugly, and you can't send attachments. Its a shame we have this very cool phone, that can't do the basic cell phone operations. However, I do agree that this issue could very well be a Sprint signal issue and not the fault of HTC.
I'd also like to add, this is my second EVOLTE and both had this issue. Also both phones were and is having problems receiving calls. My missed calls don't even register, so once again, I have to rely on Google voice to let me know I missed a call via email, even after my phone never rang.

I can 100% guarantee you that this is not the reason for this btw....it may be in some places the reason but it is NOT the main reason this is happening...
I know for a FACT there has been 0 work on the towers in my area and seen this same thing happen...
Ok, so for me this is only an issue with third party messaging apps.
I have been using the stock app now and haven't had the issue once.
Go back to Handcent sms, boom! issues again.

I have the same issue. I had the same issue briefly a few weeks ago; however, now it's happening only on Sprint's network. If I check "Roam Only" on Meanrom I'm able to place calls, and send/receive text messages just fine. It started happening again when I used the LazyPanda s-off. I asked Sprint to do an HLR reset, and I still have the same problem. I've updated the profile 7 times now.

Forwarding Disabled-Bone Stock

I haven't come across this being brought up before, and I certainly don't want to repeat thread topics, but is anyone else not able to forward calls through the Call menu in Settings? The option is greyed out.
I first noticed this when trying to get Google Talk set up for my voicemail, when the app was unable to adjust forwarding settings. Ultimately, I had to call T-Mobile so they could send missed calls to my GV number. The CSR couldn't figure out why he could access that setting but I couldn't, so he suggested I try a master reset, but I'm not ready to do something like that right now.

I'm on pure stock, and the call forwarding options work on my phone. That is I can get to the settings, I didn't try and forward calls.

On stock rooted 1.27.531.7 and I have the same problem. Will not let me set it to G Voice through the normal means. This worked on the factory software just fine.
Do this: dial **004*<number-forward-to>#
Ex: **004*15556667777#
Then call it.
The code wouldn't work for me, giving me a similar error as when I tried to set it up through GV.
