Hi I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this
I'm using handcent SMS and i love it the only problem i've got is when im sending a sms or getting a sms it just appears. In the stock sms when you are sending a sms it has a litte effect when youre sending it while the bubble is apearing
Knows anybody how to do that in handcent?

I would suppose this feature should be requested from the developers of Handcent. I also use it and have never used the stock messaging app, so I have never noticed that effect until I tried it just now. Pretty nice eye candy...
That eye candy makes it, with that it would be the ultimate sms app
I'm sure I changed this in handset by going into it's "settings -> notification settings" and playing around in there.

are your sure? because i looked into thos settings and didnt find anything
I might have mis-understood you a bit. What is it that's appearing when you are sending and receiving texts?
I've got mine setup so when I send a text I receive a confirmation message in the status bar that it was sent.
And when I receive a message it's setup so a popup appears on the screen, displaying the message itself and the option of a quick reply.

I mean when you are in the main app and you are sending a message to somebody in handcent the message if you click send the bubble just appears . In stock sms for example you se how the bubble appears and beeing transfered into the list.
Like ZeroXtreme said it just nice eye candy nothing ultra important
Ah ok. I did misunderstand you lol.
I haven't used stock sms for a long time. I will have to check now.

There are more than a few topics of the same question. The SMS on cm6 doesn't autosplit nor is there an option for it. You have to use handcent or smschomp. And change the setting to split.. also with handcent you can customize it to look close to stock... also font packages if you want a different font. I love it. Hate the bubbles so I changed it. Play around with it. I thought I'd hate it and did because of lame bubbles till I messed around and found out I don't have to have the bubbles

My question is: is it possible to make the stock messaging app when you receive a new message open up a window with all the message and reply back from there like the Iphone,GOsms, WINMO. If not then can someone make it possible. Currently it just notifies you on the top bar and shows the message. Just want to know if its possible. TIA

SMS PopUp in the Market. What Mystery said.
downloaded from the market gonna give it a try thanks to both given. That was the feature i liked about Go sms but prefer stock text message app
Edit: sms popup exactly what I was looking for
Looking for an sms app that can report back to me when a message i sent has been read by the receiver. Need this for work been looking all day and havent found it.
Handcent says its does this but everyone giving feedback on that app are saying horrible things about missing text/not receiving text. I installed this and tried it sending about 30 text and 2 werent received until like 10 minutes later
Gosms - not sure if it does have this capability looked at the details of what this app does and didnt mentioned it did.
smspop up- doesnt do it just gives a delivery report. Which is understandable since this is just to make your sms pop up.
theres another one cant remember the name of it but the recipient has to have the app installed as well and has to be sent from that app.
Anyway to make the stock app do this?
**Mod's Delete if you want or merge but i searched over and over on this site and other sites and did not find the answer. Posted on here instead of general android app because this is the phone i use so im always looking at this thread.
Just use Kik messenger and get all your friends to join. It is live messaging and shows when messages are read. Just a thought, not exactly what you wanted as it doesn't work for SMS. A cool thing is it also tells you if they are typing.
Not sure if Handcent does that or not.

the thing is i need that feature for the text i send to coworkers.
i use chomp sms and it has read notifications fully integrated and working

It won't work with normal texts. Kik/all those other apps are able to show when messages are read because they're internet-based.
Only certain carriers allow it. Not sprint .

gonna take a look at that app. does it have issues with not receiving or taking too long to receive a text.
Edit: looked at the feedback and many complaining about not receiving text and many not being able to send messages but I guess ymmv

sprint doesn't allow what?
Ok so is there any setting I'm missing that will change a SMS that goes over 140 characters to a MMS so the person I'm texting does not receive multiple text.
My wife and I both have SGIII's and when she sends me a long text it breaks it into several text instead of just one long text.
Is there any way to change this?

exuse me but i can't understand you.
could you be more clear?
When you send or receive a text that is longer than 140 characters it is sent or received in multiple messages instead of just one longer message.
Is there a setting that let's you receive messages longer than 140 characters in one text instead of the message being broken into two or three smaller messages?

Try handcent I think that has an option to do that
Sent from my SPH-L710...if some one helps you press the thanks button
I would really like to keep using the stock app if possible. Not a big fan of adding apps if I don't need to.
Here is a screenshot of me sending myself a text. You can see it is received in two parts.

as far as i know, CDMA phones can only go up to 160 characters per text.
so that option in handcent is only for the GSM phones which can send longer texts than 160.
so unfortunately you cant change that. now i do know that there are some roms that after so many messages (like 3 or 4 sms in one) it converts it to an MMS rather than an SMS, i don't know if the stock sms app does it, but i know that the handcent app has an option to disable it to rather then sending 3 or 4 sms as an MMS it sends all 4 SMS's.
but thats my 2 cents worth.
It can definitely be done. Are you running stock or do you have a custom ROM?

I was thinking it could be done because I've had that built into almost every ROM I ever ran on Verizon and their network is also CDMA. I just switched to Sprint a few weeks ago so did not know if it was a Sprint thing.
I'm running FreeSG3-v0.0.9.1, if there was a write up somewhere I can decompile whatever needs to be changed and make the changes myself.
I haven't ran stock since I first rooted my OG Droid...

If you're running an AOSP rom, open up the Messaging app and hit the menu button. Go to settings and scroll all the way to the bottom and you'll see it!
I just jumped from an iPhone to the Galaxy S3. Really loved it until..... I installed GO SMS Pro and started receiving double texts. I reached this extensively on the web and couldn't find any thing that worked so i de-installed it. I then installed Handcent 4.4.3 and low and behold, I get double texts again. I don't get double when i have the native Galaxy text app.
From what i can tell, there may be a way to "turn off" the default text notification but i cant seem to find that anywhere. Surly I am not the only person with problem on the Galaxy. Can anyone help please? Thank you.
open stock messaging app> settings> untick notifications at the bottom

Yep, the info listed above is correct if the problem is that GoSMS Pro and the stock messaging app are both giving notifications. But if one is getting duplicate, the above won't work.
