AOSP Messaging App? - HTC Droid DNA

Is there any way to get the AOSP text messaging app to replace the Sense one? I read that a direct replacement of the APK doesnt send MMS correctly. Anyone got one working? Im sick of the Sense messaging redraws and slowness.

There is one on the market but mms doesn't work on it either. I want it too. Hopefully someone can figure it out!

You guys should try Slide Messaging from the Play Store. It's pretty awesome. Funny thing is I had that exact idea not too long ago. Anyway, if you download it, it doesn't have MMS support yet and it's a tad bit slow even on our phones. >_<

why wouldn't you just post a link? This type of reply completely defeats the purpose of these forums.

sorry if I sounded like a jerk, its just that these forums are meant to help people answer questions, I just don't get why people will sometimes try to "hide" the answer.

No problem at all. I was just at work and didn't have time to get drop box downloaded and that apk uploaded. Hahah. It was just really quick to gmail them

I find the app works, but unless I freeze the stock messaging app in TiB I receive duplicates for each message. So if you freeze it everything works right, but now I have the problem that lightflow keeps repeating and I cant clear the notification sounds unless its from the stock app. I could just disable lightflow, but I work in a loud environment and I kind of need it to keep repeating or else i usually wont hear or even feel it 1st time. That's all i use lightflow for, is the repeating sound and vibration, the LED's are disabled. If anyone knows another app out there that can do the same thing that would be nice.

Does this have group messaging? This is the only reason why i stick to the sense app.

Or not, since MMS is really shoddy and is completely disabled without paying, not to mention it being really slow if you have many messages.

Text issues

Recently my thunderbolt has been sending 4 copies of the same text message to everyone. Has anyone encountered this problem or know of a fix?

Mine sent a message three times today. Not sure why. Using Go SMS Pro.
This is a Verizon network issue, along with several others regarding the thunderbolt. Hopefully it will be fixed soon .

I'm having a different kind of texting issue.
Sometimes when people text me, I'll pull down the notification bar to reply, write my message, and try to send. But the "Send" button is greyed out! I have to close out and reopen for it to work again.
Are you running a custom Rom or a different sms app than stock?

Yes that was directed at you. For the little time that i was on stock i was noticing that too. I think that it is a bug with the sense text. I disabled everything in stock sms and started using go sms, seams to have fixed it for me.
Sense seems to have some issues updating it's texting widget for me, I'll get the notification for a new sms, I'll go to my widget screen to read it and it won't be there, it's not until I go through the notification bar to read it that it shows up, kinda annoying.

Someone with a stock phone please help us.

A couple of us with modded roms are having a hard time with force closes on the messaging app and we are trying to rule out the rom as the problem.
Can someone with a stock rom please try to send a multi contact text message to see if the app closes?

I'm unfortunately on debloated stock, not stock, so can't help you most likely. Also I never send multi-destination text spam (I almost never send texts to begin with)
So far not a single person who has reported this problem has submitted a logcat...
This is a simple request that should take someone about 15 seconds to complete. I would rather start there than logcat. Especially since logcat confuses the hell out of me lol

I just tried it from my phone with 2 recipients. No force close, and I am on stock rom rooted.
Just tried with 2 recipients on Cognition and they went through fine.

Except that sending texts costs money and bothers the recipients of said texts.
Especially if it's not even guaranteed we'll reproduce the problem.

Call Bar alternative?

I had an app on iOS that whenever a call came in, it didn't take up the whole screen. It only showed up on top, similar to the iOS 5 notifications. There are times I don't feel like answering a call when using my phone and I don't want to reject it because then they would know. Is there an app that can stop incoming calls from using the whole screen on android?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
No one has anything?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
The only thing I can think of is a stock feature on CM7. It only gives you a status bar notification that you have an incoming call. I'm not sure if there are apps for that, but I'd imagine not.
I'm trying to stay away from CM7. I'm on UnNamed. How has a dev still not put something like this together?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
It involves modding the framework. CM7 has a modded framework, that's why it has it.
It isn't easy to implement and requires actual coding, not something normal ROM developers can do.

Perhaps you should try to produce something of your own instead of expecting others to do it for you. Or maybe try searching here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=530

Yes, there is an app on the Google Play store called Small Call. Its does the same thing CallBar does but for Android and it works pretty well. I downloaded it on my S3 and its the app on my phone I use the most.
Small call is OK. I have had issues with it. Also I don't think it has a quick call feature like callbar does

S Voice not working, won't always speak ???

S voice doesn't always want to talk, and yes Voice Prompt is turned on.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Same with driving mode text to speech, wont always talk. I've installed the voice synthesis software, what is wrong?
Anyone else having this issue?

Same behavior here.
I call it the Vlingo Disaster. This S-Voice bs was just as buggy on Epic Touch (sgs2 for Sprint). It's just a buggy piece of crapware.

There was a fix for GB roms for Epic Touch - replace the vlingo.apk (or something like that, don't remember exact name) with a google voice dialer app (name the same as the one being replaced). I wonder if it still works...
Try reading the OP of this thread, see if changing those settings helps.

@nabbed, how would changing the name of an app before install (which would fail on a lot of apps) help, when the app is installed, svoice will not use that just because it was named what the original app file was named, dosnt work that way.

Sorry, I forgot to add a link, please look again, and read that OP in that thread I linked to.... But like I said, just because you change the name of an app, dosnt mean its called upon by svoice. Now if you unistall vlingo it will use what ever you have installed, no matter what the name of the app is....... Now onto why other apps won't work when the name is changed, well the problem there would be the checks made by the installer to see if anything was messed with, verification checks. That's not true on most google apps, but paid apps, well you may have an issue if you change the name. Just giving some clarification is all.

I don't know what you are talking about. Sorry, you make little sense, if any at all..

Any other suggestions?....
Again, S Voice works, as in it listens to me and searches for what I ask, but about 90 percent of the time she fails to talk back to me.
For example I'll say set alarm, maybe one in 10 times she will respond spoken, the other 9 times she stays quiet. The phone is not on mute, voice prompt is turned on.

Yes, because what thats doing is changing your tts settings, these are universal, and not phone specific.

I'm on the 1.5 and its working. but SMS does not work if you are using the stock touchwiz sms. this is because it wakes the screen when you get a message so that ruins it. but hangouts, emails, instagram, etc work fine for me

I think the talkback is just an accessibility bug for samsung devices. Only happens when an app is using accessibility.
dev claims to have fixed the Samsung SMS bug. haven't tried it yet.
added several new options. most notably (for me) was the option to use this as the lock screen. went ahead and went premium!
