That sucks. I tried it and it worked for me. Hopefully they get it resolved sometime in the future. It is frustrating I know.

How to make evo awake after receiving a text?

Is there a way to make the Evo wake from sleep and turn the screen on when receiving a text?? I'm running CM7 btw.

I don't believe there is a way built in. There are a few apps in the market that will do it tho. I used to use SMS popup and it worked.

I use Handcent. It now has Su permissions and you can back up on their server too.
If you party with tasker enough I'm sure you can find a way to make out happen.

I use handcent and froze the stock mms apk. And I also have two reminders set to go off every 2 minutes for messages. It doesn't seem to affect my battery life too much

Actually I froze with root uninstaller.
But I'm sure ether one will do fine , you can even just delete the apk since handcent doesn't depend on the system messaging app

That's what I did I uninstalled the stock mssaging app. I find handcent to be a million times better with all the custimozable settins.

If u get widget locker:
It allows you to use the notification pulldown while locked. When i started using handcent i missed that slide to read. but now i can just pull down the pull down and click any notifications
Also if u delete the stock mms. It makes MMS not go through.

Actually I deleted it and MMS have gone through perfectly a couple 30 times since I've deleted it.
There's an option in handcent to handle both mms and sms.

And it connects normally and when the phone says its connected nothing comes up on my pc. I used two different usbs. You think you know what it could be from.? I've don't it on my computer from before so I doubt its my computer and I used different ports.

idk this happened to me randomly too never figured out what was the cause it just went away with an ODIN flash
I personally use goSMS, but they're pretty much the same thing, but I noticed I had a lot of wakelock on spare parts when using handcent. On goSMS, I haven't seen it(yet).

Group Messaging?!

Okay I'm going to be honest my fellow Gs2 family. I have been using the iphone for a couple of weeks now just because I wanted to try something new. Well I still love the galaxy s 2... but I see the only reason why I use the iphone is because it has iMessage... aka group messaging and IM with other iphones. so my question is does anyone know an app or amy app devs that could have us group chat with other phones?

I believe WhatsApp is cross platform that supports group chat

Go SMS PRO (free) supports group messaging, been using it forever

Is there a solution that doesn't require the person(s) on the other end to download an app?

So when you send a group text and people reply, everyone's reply is in the same thread and not individual messages? Because I've been using Go SMS Pro, too, and group messaging doesn't work like that for me.
Okay all gamer will it be with other people without gosmspro also or only people wwith gosmspro

Why not try CHATON by Sammy?
Google plus? Chat-on ,Whats app messenger I believe. I just use google plus with all my iphone friends.
Android does not support group messaging without the assistance of a third party application, so people on the other end will also need to download the app

do other people need chaton cause it says they won't... idk

Any 3rd party app to do Twitter/Facebook push notification?

I hate it when I still cannot get push notifications of my Twitter app. Is there any 3rd party app that can do this for us? I used to know http://notifo.com/ can do it, but it does not seem to be working well now.
I'm using Heywire. Might be what you are looking for.
