Folder view app for messages - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hi Friends,
I've been try to search for a basic, simple app that allows me to look at my SMSes in a folder view (inbox, sent, draft etc). I found one such app on Play Store, "SMS Classic View" but this isn't available for my phone. I know about so many apps that provide a lot of fancier functionality but all I want is just a folder view, nothing else (or I would say, anything else would be a bonus). Any ideas ?
I use an Xperia SL (ICS).
thanks,
Kunal

use Go SMS Pro
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.gosms

Thanks for mentioning that. I know about Go SMS Pro. But I really do not need all that jazz that comes along with it.
As I said, I just need a very basic representation of my messages in folders. Call me old-school but I guess I just like my box to be neat.
"SMS Classic View" looks like the app for it but doesn't work for me.
thanks,
Kunal

Tytn to Desire ... Need a Bit of Help ...

Hey guys,
Justa few quick questions ...
Is there an application or something that will log all the apps I have downloaded via my account and list them for me, so when I do a backup I knwo what I had before?
Is there an app to list the above AND download the latest versions without me having to manually do anything (Shashimi for Android).
I have loads of text on my Tytn is there an easy way to back these up in a rar file or something. I don't want to import them to the desire just store them.
I sue S2U2, I like the Android lock screen BUT I like being able to view my texts/emails without unlocking the device, what options do I have?
Lastly, is there an app to automatically backup your text on a weekly basis and email it to your gmail as an archive? I want it to also ignore the previous week's text.
Am I asking too much L.o.L.?

I don't have an Android phone yet ...and won't do until 7/8/9-April... but playing with my wife's Hero this is what I know...
You seem to have to create a level of Google account in orpder to purchase from Android Market and logging into your Google Account and going to Android Market will bring up a list of your previously downloaded apps.
I haven't found a stand alone app for this but purchasing your apps through AppBrain.com and using their AppBrain app seems to do what your asking. AppBrain doesn't seem to list all apps though - definitely missing UK specific apps such as Beebplayer.
I've had WinMo phones for the past 8 years and never heard of a facility to do this - if there is one I'd be chuffed to hear about it myself.
Dunno - someone else will have to answer this one I'm afraid
I believe that most backup apps will do a scheduled backup - Sprite Backup definitely does but to the SD Card only (no automailer), but WRT ignoring previously backed up messages I've not heard of this feature in any backup app.
I hope this helps to some extent.

AppBrain allows you to create lists on their site, so when you change phones or wipe it, you can tell it to reinstall the whole list. I did that when I moved from G1 to Desire -- worked like a charm.

You should ask that in TyTN forum

P.S. sorry, I was lazy and did not include links -- google is your friend

You can store all your text messages online with Microsoft My Phone or else store them on your PC.

THANKS ALL!
Will have a look at this FabianNL as if I can export to individual files then I will be happy. To be honest it isn't a big deal .
Been playing with my Desire for a while, I can see the appeal of Android it's quick, big buttons, keyboard isn't back considering I'm coming from Tytn (as well as a Touch HD but that was BAD).
My next step is ... what programs should I "replace"? I'm refering to applications like mail, text/messages, etc the build in ones.
I am though over the moon with the device the text input ROCKS! I do have a list of applications I need suggestions on though ... I'm used to the following on Windows Phone so I need an Android variation ...
G-Alarm - A Comprehensive alarm application
G-Profile - easily change my profiles from night, work, home, etc, this would be great as a widget
Task Facade - A general task manager that will show all my running applications and let me close/switch
Wake On Text/Email/etc - As it says ... and stay awake until message has been read!
Lock Without using Power button - easy ...
That's about it for now
I use Klaxon for my alarms.
SMS Popup will turn on the screen when you get text messages (not sure if there is similar for emails) and can give reminders untill it's read.
As far as profiles, then would HTC's Scenes not do the trick? Failing this Locale can automagically turn on and off services and silent/loud the ringer based on various criteria like time and location.
You can easily switch to recent apps by pressing and holding the home key
And there are loads of Task Managers on the market for killing running apps
What does sense have for managing profiles?
Hi,
I would like replace my TyTn II to HTC Desire but Im not shure if I will be happy with Desire(Android)...
Main things which wory me are:
1.)Synchronization with PC with USB cable. I DON'T want and will not sync with google account. All I need is same automatic sync line with activesync. I need sync Contacts, Calendar, Emails(Configure which folders), Task's, Notes. Sync will be done with MS Outlook 2007/2010.
2.)Is possible set more than one email account? I need 3x pop3/smtp email accounts.
3.)Is possible disable threaded SMS/MMS? I realy hate this function.
4.)Is there any app which allow connet to windows remote desktop(RDP and not any 3rd party VNC or other)?
5.)Is there some app/pack which can work with word, excel, power point files?
6.)Does included browser support certificates? I know that opera mobile on WinMo do not support it, so I can't manage cPanel server, make payments(bank)...
I think that this is enought for start
Thanks for any help and answers.
Best regards, _Dejan_

Whoaaa looks so much like the stock MIUI SMS app now! Will try this for sure!
Emoji does not work
I have not tested it yet with people who DO have go sms pro,
but, when I send emoji to people who DON'T have go sms pro, they do not see the emoji I attach in the message, only the regular smileys
Edit: I just read again the market description of the emoji plugin. and indeed it is stated very clearly that the recipient should have go sms pro and the emoji plugin.
In my opinion this is totally useless.
One has to convince all of his contacts to install an app before one can use it properly
That's not the right way to implement new stuff.
Imagine you could not talk to someone unless he had your dialer application....
ridiculous

So you suggest they change the SMS-standard to implement their own type of smileys? Remember that SMS is only text, and it is the SMS-app reading the SMS that translates the text 'colon-paranthesis' to an image of a smiley-face.
Ridiculous...

I am not a developer and I don't have knowhow, but I know what sounds unreasonable.
It is very unreasonable to provide you with a tool that only works if your recipient has exactly the same tool.
Can you imagine having an sms app which messages could be read ONLY by people who had the same app? wouldn't you call that ridiculous and useless?
I don't see the difference

It's obvious that you do not know what you are talking about. What you find ridiculus I find obvious. I rest my case

[Q] App that allows to share directly to contact?

I can't believe no one has written an app like this or i just don't know about it...
I frequently want to share links and things with my wife, so when I go to share, it comes up with a list of apps to share the content to. So i click messaging and then i have to type her name in the TO box and hit send....
Well... wouldn't it be great if when i originally hit the share button, instead of the apps coming up, or in addition to, there was a Direct Message Wife option that would do it all (maybe except the sharing)... seems totally possible but i can't find that functionality. anyone have any ideas??

[Q] Hiding Texts and Contacts?

Hi there,
This is a bit of a random question but is there a way to hide a certain person from appearing in your contacts and their text messages from showing? I don't want to delete them or their texts, just to hide them?
Thanks

I don't know about contacts but the Sense roms I used would allow you to move single texts or entire conversations to the secure box, hiding them until you enter your password. The aokp rom I use now has no such option.
Sent using the power of the dark side.
As the previous person said. Theres an app in the play store called secret box and miui has it as a built in function. Havent played with the miui one too much. Not sure if it hides it or blocks it.
I hope my gf doesn't read this
Edit: the app hides the contacts, pics, calls, messeges. But play around with it cause I think it will still show at the moment it comes in. You don't need any surprises. Oh, and I'm talking about sms messages.

More to say have I. My drinking buddy rom is vu (i know its old but works n is sexy) which is sense. If that's you this works. Never seen the app.
Put the contact you ent to hide on you sin. Open people, click menu, click view deselect sin.
Wit that n the secure sms inbox, its hides. Will show on Sense lockscreen except weather or pics. But u may want hide some them too.
If u not sense, try app. Let us know. Some US secrets too.
If you can read this, I's been a drinkin

Great, cheers for that guys!
I use PSB, the cool thing about is that it has no icon under programs, you go to your dialer type 1234 and hit dial and it opens up.

[Q] Gmail app - how to get rid of conversation view?

Like the title asks, does anyone know how to get the stock Gmail App to show messages in the single message view style?
I searched and found how to do this for the Gmail web login (which i never use), but the change in settings unfortunately doesn't transfer through....I tried another client that offered this but didn't like the app as a whole.
I don't think it's possible yet. I know many, many people have requested this feature, so hopefully Google will listen and implement this in a future release.
Thanks for the reply, I really hope they implement this feature. I don't understand why Google wouldn't enable this as its available through the web client...coming from a BB I am very used to the single view style for inbox/sent messages. I am always lost when it comes to locating and forwarding messages especially with the "show quoted text".
Well its Christmas soon, I know what I'll be wishing for.:laugh:
