Develop Bugs

several issues

1. text messages
a. is there a way to view messages as they come in(the old way) and not as conversations?
b. sometimes conversations show up in a nice font and other times they show up in comic sans. what's up with that?
2. messaging in general
a. is there a way to de-couple sms from mms so they aren't grouped together?
b. my main htc tab shows i have 1 unread message but there are none. rebooting the phone does not get rid of it. is there a way to fix it without deleting all my messages?

[Q] SMS to MMS - Problem

Hello. I think the most of you know this problem. If I write long SMS, my Nexus automatically turns SMS to MMS . For me is that a problem, because I want that my Nexus split my long text in several SMS and not in one MMS. I couldn't find a solution for this problem. At the time I use Handcent. Is there any solution in work?

I have the opposite issue. My long SMS are automatically splited in multiple SMS messages but I would prefer to be converted to MMS .... I guess you make some app installed that is doing this conversion to MMS. If you figure out the app please let me know

Any SMS bigger than 160 * 3 chars is converted in MMS by stock Message app.

Handcent has an option for this in the settings menu.

Yes, Handcent solves this issue. On the other hand, I noticed Handcent is horribly laggy when typing an answer to a received message straight from in (what I call) notification-dialogbox-view (not the fullscreen app).
Is a patched sms/mms stock app with some kind of added sms splitting patched feature anywhere to be found ?
By the way, a little offtopic, do any of you guys know if there is a black-background stock sms/mms app floating around ?
many thx in advance

[Q] CM10.1 [RC8.1] SMS Counter

I instaled RC8.1 few days ago and I for me everything works perfect but i notice that when typing long SMS messages instead of merging them in 2/3/.../6 sms messages it makes it a MMS after 160 characters. I looked in settings for a solution but i couldn't find it, is there any way to change that or I will have to separate messages manualy?

Also some times it just keep "sending" message.

with this release my phone sometimes don't receive all the messages......someone else have this problem?

I think I received all messages, but some of them wouldn't send it just say sending and leave it that way...

As far as I remember, since first release of CM10.1 long messages are converted to MMS by default, and there's no option to change it to multiple SMS

See in mms settings. Or just install other sms app (slide messaging shoud do the trick) and change there. This will fix the problem.
Sent via blue dots...

Thanks, I will check that app later

Thx, i'll try that
Btw any news about not sending some messages?

[Q] SMS messages only seen by stock app

Hi,
I am having issues with SMS messages not appearing in third party applications.
I am on
HTC One M8 (UK) Vodafone
Android 5.0.1
Sense 6.0
ROM Stock 4.19.161.2
For only a few contacts, I get SMS messages for them and they only appear in the stock HTC messaging app. I use Google Hangouts normally. I can always see the full conversation in the Stock app but other third party ones don't show the full conversation. I have tried Handcent and Textra as well, all behave like Hangouts and don't see the messages.
I deleted all SMS to clear out what I had, there is also a single SMS from one contact where I cannot open or delete their message but I can see the first few lines or so in the preview window. This leads me to believe the SMS db is corrupt or something. This may be related but the not being able to delete has been something recent and the not getting the 3rd party apps to see certain messages has been happening for a while.
I hope someone can help, really bugging me now.
I am on Stock at present, device is not rooted and I have not altered the bootloader etc.
Thanks
Jason

You sent single SMS, network operator charge in double. Problem Solved.

I have Samsung galaxy S2 upgraded to 4.1.2 … Tests here apply to my machine, but you can be sure, they can be repeated on a lot of other phones. I can not be sure on which one.
When you have several SMS apps, if you sent SMS by one app, randomly one of the other apps sent same SMS again. Each app sent once… but phone sent in double, so network operator charge in double.
In table bellow in red I mark, where this issue is very likely. Example: You sent SMS with the stock ‘messaging’ app… then … these apps will potentially try to sent the SMS too… zero sms, chomp sms, go sms pro, kk sms, easy sms, messenger.
(The image will be added in some different time.)
It is likely, in different times, different programs to be activated. On more modern phones, downgraded to older android, it will be no odd; single SMS to be sent in triple, four times or more.
Usually, if you have bystander apps what sent SMS, they can try to be in service for you and turn on your 2G by themselves and promptly do them job. They no care if SMS created in other app. They just want to be in service to you. This is serious bug in most SMS apps, I know how to fix it, but let SMS apps developers contact me for details.
I notice odd cases. Here described.
Textra mark messages by other programs like sent. But they are not sent. The message sent by textra is invincible to other programs, before sent.
Inside the chomp program, messages sent over chomp are well… but other SMS apps see these messages like sent by the receiver. Some apps detect these messages like not sent, and it is unclear how they’ll send them. This research, I do it without to send SMS, because it is difficult to hunt this problem down to minimal details. Each time, different apps are activated. We are in multitask environment.
Go SMS pro import spam in the conversations. Textra filter this spam in separate conversation.
Next SMS is jealous. It do not love SMS composed in competition app. But SMS by Next are well accepted by these other apps. And they kindly can try to be in service.
Other apps see messages composed in Messenger like already sent.
Resume. SMS apps are not well designed to work cooperatively each with another.
Solution. Chose your favorite SMS app, only disable the stock SMS app, and leave single active SMS app in the phone.
Do you know better way to upgrade SMS functionality compared to replace the stock app with other one? ( Example: how to replace it with two apps? ) Let me know, in reply to this post.
Just now, chomp complained with special notification to me that it wasn’t able to sent the SMS composed in five other programs. All doubts are definitely gone. Once again: SMS apps are very friendly, industrious in care for your job, they do it in double. You compose in one… SMS sent by other, etc…
