So I installed the 4.2 camera and gallery on my One X+, and have been playing with it. I have one big issue right off the bat, and it is with the gallery. When the camera is on, one can swipe over to the gallery to see the picture I just took...lets say i want to text that picture to someone? On the top of the screen there is a share icon...I hit that, and no option for message. So I hit the "see all" selection. No message option in the entire list.
So it seem the only way to text a picture is to go into the the old galley, and share from there, or open a new message and attach from there?
Is there a way to add message as one of the sharing options in the new gallery?

Damn no answers.
Well, here is a screenshot of what I am talking about. How can i get text messaging to show up in this list?

"lightbox_next": "Next",

If no one know an answer to this...is there a way to associate the camera to a different gallery?
You need to go to messages and hit the paperclip to send pics mms

I know I can....but on the GS3, messaging shows up as an option to share like it should. Getting out of the camera, the making a new text message is more work than sharing right from the gallery!
EDIT: It looks like the good ole 3 button menu strikes again!
I'm pretty sure this is because the stock sms app is a part of sense, and only sense apps can use other sense apps. Kind of like how you can't use sense widgets on 3rd party launchers.
I suggest using a different sms app if you want that functionality, you could even use the aosp 4.1 app. Either that or use the paperclip shortcut in the HTC sms app.

I there anyway to have a button / icon on the homescreen that directly opens the dialer. So that I don't have to open the dialer via contacts then scroll the tab left. I can't find a shortcut or widget that does it. Have done a few searches but to no avail. Any help provided would be gratefully received.
+1 to this.
I'm thoroughly confused by this question. There's an app called "phone dialer".
there's an app called phone, but it opens the phone app at contacts, not the dialer.
Okay - I guess we have different firmware that have different apps then. When you scroll the tabs to the left to get to the dialer, does it not remember that next time you open the app?
Alternatively, and if you'd be happy with a 3rd party replacement, look at GO Contacts. It installs as both a contacts app and a dialer, and really is very good. I'm all over GO apps at the minute!
I just use the free "no lock" screen app, then all you have to do is press the dialler button once the phone wakes up.

If you don't know what facepalm means then just google it. As for why, read the thread properly.
Ohh, yes my mistake jumping to conclusions, so many threads and so little time,
You could have told me a little more subtly and saved my embarrassment.

so anyone whos linked to facebook, when you get a text and you use the stock app, do you notice low crappy quality images on the lock screen? same with a call?
their actual fb images aren't this low of quality; i can see them in the people widget and the quality looks fine. however, they're much smaller and lower resolution on the lockscreen when you get a text. any thoughts on this? i just started using the stock messaging app again so i'd like to know
I have noticed. It looks horrible. I wish HTC would fix it.
Same here, they're nasty.
ok good, as long as its happening to us all. hmm, there's gotta be a way to fix that.
We can fix. We just need root
lol how? nobody fixed that on the incredible roms running sense 2.0 and above wtih the 3.0 lockscreen....it was always ****ty quality lol
I just had my girlfriend call and text me both. I am not having this issue.
And yours is linked to facebook for her, or is it her google image?

3 users of this phone I know of have this same issue... I highly doubt any one with the pictures synced with facebook are not having this issue.
My wife's picture seems OK. Can't take a screenshot of the lock screen but it looks the same as her contact picture which was synced from facebook. Bottom contact

You can take a pic of the lock screen just like you do for that. Hold home and power. It works.

Wow, last poster has some nice image quality there. Mine's got that low-quality FB imagetag, however. Would really like to make it better.
My contact photos don't look so hot on the lockscreen either.

Hello,
I have the ATT Galaxy Note and would like to use it as my pager via text messaging, which I did with my prior iPhone. I would like to have the text messages appear on the lock screen (or unlocked screen if that is the only thing possible) until I view them so I don't have to unlock the phone and drill down into the apps when I am paged at 2am and half asleep. Is this possible?
Thank you.
You can use SMS pro and enable quick reply on it.

I decided to try Go SMS Pro and it does just what I need it to do.

The exact app for your need is called Iphone Notifications from the market. When my wife moved from the iphone to the Skyrocket, that's the only app that saved the day. There is a free version but the paid version would display the actual message on the lockscreen. It works with Widgetlocker also.
SMS pop up is included with saurom and it has exactly what you need, whenever you get a text a window pops up and asks if you want to reply or close the window etc

Lockscreen notifications
Hi.
Nicolas from Productigeeky, creator of iPhone Notifications.
You may want to try our last app LockerPro Lockscreen, it does pretty much what you are looking for.
There is a free lite version.
Here is what it looks like :
{
"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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Regards.
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

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_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?
Sent from my NCC-1701 using Tapatalk 4
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.
I just noticed that the camera app on my rooted M8 doesn't have video mode, only camera and selfie. I can't tell you if was there before it was rooted, because gaining root was the first thing I did with this phone. Has anyone else seen this, or have any advice for me? Thanks!

This happened to me after using Themer and a one click theme. And this oddity came about by clicking the camera icon on the home page, not the actual Camara app.

I don't know about the Google now launcher but in themer i had the option to change which icons launched what apps. I noticed my icon was set to open camera but i just selected to change it and set it to cam manually and for some reason, that worked for me. I also had to do the same with gallery
