SGS3 problem with Go SMS Pro and icon unread notifications - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello guys, yesterday i bought my sgs3 after i sold my iphone 4 (at last)
and after some search in my first touch with android, i came up to this problem...
my phone had on it 4.0.4 ICS, so i rooted it in first place, then installed addfree, addaway and a couple of games, after that i wanted a better sms program, so i tested handset and go sms pto, go sms pro proved to be better for my taste...and this is the part where the problem comes in...
i did all its settings correctly, about notifications etc, and no matter what i do, when i have 1 or more sms unreaded in my inbox, go sms pro icon dont show a thing on it, only go sms pro widget shows "1" unreded on its icon, and stock sms app, but not the go sms app icon that i have on dock...
does anyone know whats that problem? did i do anything thats causing it? is it a bug that with an update will be fixed on the 4.0.4 ICS?
i also tried go launcher ex with go launcher ex notifications, neither that did work (and i didnt like its outfit too)
please HELP!!!!!!!!!

Did you chose go sms pro as default sms application?

im not sure about that, where do i make it default sms app?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
click go sms and it will ask you would you like to make go sms your default messaging app tick the box and tap go sms.. Then go to settings and find turn off built in sms so that only go sms will pick up your messages and not your stock messaging app..

ok i downloaded Default App Manager and made default Go SMS Pro for messaging but still, i get notification and counter on go sms widget but not on the apps icon

Go SMS pro icon notification fix
Not sure if this will work but remove the go sms app from the dock and drag the widget there instead. I had the same problem too and am going to see if this works.

Problem with Rocketdial 2.7.5

Hello, i installed rocketdial on my Galaxy3 with indroid 4.1. The problem is that in the dialer mode there is no picture beside the number of the contact. The example picture shows some thing else.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is there a way i could fix that?
Hi, that is because you did not have "Only show contacts with phone number" checked in RocketDial settings, you can check it through Settings-->Contacts related settings--> Show contacts with phone number.
Tried it. Still the same problem. I have installed 2.7.0 still the same thing. When i press the phone icon on my homescreen and go to rocketdial there are only the names and the icon for received or missed or called information(blue red green) I want to see the contact photo, if he has one.
do you mean the call history screen ?
The contact photo is added in version 2.7.6 , please try the latest .
The Confirmation Box that pops up each time you select a contact is annoying! Wish there were a way around this
While at the dial pad screen:
Menu/More/Settings
Advanced Feature settings
Enable call Confirm
I think turns this off.
I'd like to see the option of selecting a different phone number to call from this contact here; also the ability to make the picture smaller with other options.
Just a thought, hope it helps
Yes, you can disable call confirm by going to settings--> Advanced Features--> Call Confirm and disable it .
You can actually select different number to dial by long click on the contact and select "call" , then you will be able to select the phone number .

How do we delete contacts in Rocketdial?
I long press contact name and select "Delete" then I see it say
"deleting contact failed".
The contacts I am trying to delete are those from AT&T like "AT&T Music ID"
and all the other AT&T contacts I see in Rocketdial.
I even tried deleting normal contacts with the same results.
Thanks.

Google Voice..Is it fully functional with rooted NT?

As the title states...(minus the calling capabilities of course)
Thanks for the info.
Rob
If you refer to google voice for text messages and calls and not google voice search as some people get confused, then yes it works pretty well, but for make calls it does not work with other apps like groove IP , gvoice and so because of the lack of the proper drivers for the mic and possibly speaker too.

Awesome thanks....yes I will just be using for the texting. When the NT is in sleep mode will it still notify you of an incoming message or do you have to manually check it? Also, when rooted do you get audible notifications for new messages and/or emails like you do on a regular Android tab or phone?

yes you can get audible notifications, and the notfications will not show up while nook is sleeping once you wake it up wifi will wake up too in few seconds and then you will have to wait until next refresh of google voice to check for new texts to finally show up in your notification status bar, i think it refresh every 5min but not sure and there is not option to set the refreshing time in google voice.

The only problem is that you cannot access your contacts list (since the Contacts application is not installed).

Nop, you can use your contacts while you sync them with your gmail account:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}

I've successfully texted using Google Voice with the NT (sent and received). I use GMail, but recently started using Contapps for viewing and text messaging/e-mailing my contacts on the tablet. It also has Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, etc integration. So far so good.
No go on the phone calling though.

Using Handscent but want stock TW text notifications

I installed Handcent again and I like it but miss the old text notification that would go across the top of the lockscreen. I could tap on that and unlock the phone and go right to the message instead of unlocking it, pulling down the task bar, and tapping the notification. Is there any way to just use Handcent as the app but keep the stock popup notifcations?

I receive the text notifications across the top of the screen with handscent..there is a setting in handscent that allows this..go to settings..notification settings..custom notification settings..turn off privacy mode and you should receive your notifications just like the stock app
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Free mobile app
Isn't that going to show the message content though? I don't want people to be able to see the message with the phone locked. This is what I want:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Even with that privacy option disabled, if I come to the phone after I get a message all I have at the top is a tiny icon like this:
I like the stock function because it says what time it came in, lets you tap it and go directly to the message on unlock, and I'm just used to it.

I am also using Handcent as my default messaging app. Having what you're asking for would be a nice feature, but wouldn't tapping that notification bring you to the stock messaging app? If so, what would be the point of having Handcent?

I thought maybe there was a setting in there that replicated the TW stuff, that's all. Or maybe there would be a way to reassign the function and have it point to Handcent instead.
Honestly the only thing really like right now is that I can change the LED color and flashing speed because the stock flashing rate is too damn slow. I guess I'll try one of those apps that lets you handle LED functions again, but last time I tried it didn't do anything.

[Q] Missing features in Supernexus rom? Advice needed?

I upgraded my i-727 from 4.2.1 (stock AT&T rom) to the Supernexus 4.4.2 rom (clean flash with ClockwokMod Recovery). I really like it a lot. It is a lot faster then my old bloated stock rom that had become super sluggish and glitchy. There are a couple of things that I really miss from the old rom though, that I would like to get back if I can.
There were two features that I really liked in the old 4.2.1 stock rom that are not present in Supernexus 4.4.2. There was notifications (shortcuts actually) on the lock screen for missed calls and new text messages, and there was also notifications that appeared on the the app icons on the home screen that alerted me to new emails, missed phone calls and new text messages. I don't know the proper terminology to calls these home app icons that showed these notifications, I just call them "Live Widgets". If that is incorrect, please tell me the proper name.
I have looked all over the play store for a lock screen app that would bring back the missed call and new message notification and active shortcuts to my lock screen and have not found anything even remotely similar in appearance and function. As far as the Live Widgets that used to show how many new text messages, missed calls and emails I had; in the Supernexus rom, Hangouts has replaced the messaging app that came with 4.2.1 and it does not offer a live widget and the same is true for the email app and the phone dialer.
To give you a better understanding of what I am talking about here are a couple of pictures from my old lock screen and home screen from 4.2.1. The functions came standard in that rom and were not something that I added or customized. I would really like to get them back if I can.

I can't send and receives MMS after flash Rom - help please!

Hello guys,
I have big problems with mms on my s3. I flashed my phone one week ago - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-s5-sensation-rom-v3-1-t2759425 v4.2.
I used old mms setting which work great before flashing and try to change other but no results.
Any solutions friends
Try to use a 3rd party SMS/MMS app that supports inputting the MMS settings directly to it such as Go SMS, ChompSMS, Textra, etc. This will help narrow down if the problem exists with the stock messaging app or the rom itself. It's also possible that your carrier might have multiple APNs and some work better on certain phones / updates than others. If this does not work, it would be helpful if you post your carrier and APN settings being used for further troubleshooting.
Another work around if all that fails and you want to stick with the rom is using a 3rd party app that supports sending MMS over data (shows as a link to other people who do not have the same app). Hello SMS, Go SMS, ChompSMS, and some others support this method and allows you to send larger and higher resolution pictures as well.

Hello again,
I checked all 3rd sms/mms programs what you wrote earlier. Textra was the best but all of these does not work! I'm sure problem is in sunajkram23 Rom's http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-s5-sensation-rom-v3-1-t2759425
Below in screenshots I want to show you icons 3G and H+ - no sending and no receives. Look please at small arrows. I think should be dark.
I try change manualy apn settings in textra but its the same problem. Yesterday I try all day find some clue in xda forum but I couldn't.
