I prefer Chomp SMS to the stock messaging app in every way - however I noticed that my edge lighting doesn't work with Chomp. Anyone know of a way to get it to work, or am I stuck with the stock messaging app for now?

if you want to incorporate the edge light part of it, you gotta use the stock app

Damn. That's disappointing. I wish it didn't resize MMS the way it does. Through Chomp they come in at a fairly large size - through the stock app they're reduced to a max of 1024 - in my case 768x1024
i think hangouts might work with it too, if thats better for u

No luck with Hangouts either. I'm sure it'll come in the future!

not only that, I bet after a few days you dont even pay attention to the side light...if you dont keep your phone face down, or, in a really dark area/room, you wont even notice it

You know i been wondering... the camera application in our phone is after all a program that runs just like any other program in our phone right? thus being said... with all these applications made for the dash why has anyone yet to make an upgrade for the camera app? even tho the application is set to manufactures default settings so was the T-Mobile rom settings, but people were able to upgrade roms so why is it that we cant upgrade the camera app? maybe there is someone smart enough out there to think of this app. i mean all in all it would be nice to have some extra effects options or a brightness option you know... something to that effect would be a cool thing to have.
There are many Camera applications, I personally use the "stock" camera in conjunction with Cool Camera

yeah its kinda screwed up this app... maybe if you provide the settings you have set on your phone that way i can try to set the same thing on mine and then see if it will work or maybe you can guide me to a website that has more then one camera app on it that way i have a few apps to choose from cause you mentioned there was more then one. thanks so much.
Is there a way to stop this? Not really a big deal, but it's just kind of annoying.

I don't thinks so. I didn't like it either so I switched to Go SMS. It works perfectly. It even has option to change minimum mms size etc. so I am going to stick with it until Samsung releases an update.

This. I'm about to switch over to go sms as well for this very reason.
Is go sms better than Handcent?

I think so. Go Dev's are always on top. They release updates regularly and that's important to me. I don't want a stagnant app that updates every few months.
Had the same problem but thought it was something I can fix in the settings... But it's good to see others are having same problem... I'll give go SMS a try... Hopefully on the next update this gets addressed
-1 for Go and there launcher not a big TW fan

No time on received text messages ?
Half the apps you download dont work it says unfortunately this app has closed. There is bugs to be ironed out on ics.
Why is there an advertisment showing on the screen behind a text msg when you receive one i cant seem to get rid of it.
No flash yet. Phone very difficult to hear even at highest volume and i downloaded volume ± and ringer not long enough.
"Half the apps you download dont work it says unfortunately this app has closed."
Have you enabled force GPU rendering by any chance?

What? All of my received text messages have a timestamp just like the sent ones. There are no advertisements behind text messages unless you're using a 3rd party texting app.
I got no problem with the volume, actually phone calls quality is very good.
+ what advertisment are u talking about ??
Same here. Phone call quality has been excellent. No adverts in text messages.
Not really the galaxy nexus' fault if app devs are taking sometime to opimise for ICS and 720p displays.
If you wanna be the first to get hands on latest hardware/software/combination of the two, then expect some teething problems.
For me, the most annoying thing by far is T-mobile not letting me receive good quality MMS. Everything is small and blurry. Looking forward to learning about a fix here.

Mine has a timestamp. Are you using the stock messaging app or a 3rd party one from the Market?

This is NOT an issue with ICS, it can be (as stated above) that you have "Force GPU Rendering" checked in Settings -> Developer Options, or (more likely) the developers who have made those apps have yet to update their code for ICS (most likely resolution and memory management I would guess).

It is coming, according to Adobe themselves. Although, other than imbedded videos in articles/posts, I find Flash to be as much of an annoyance (ads) as a boon.

I agree that this is not a phone for the hard of hearing or those who work/live in noisy environments...

It has happened before (N1 I think), and is something about how their network does not recognize the unlocked device and uses the lower bandwidth protocols for MMS reserved for feature phones because it does not recognize the device as a smartphone. Or something like that...
At any rate, it is documented (here at XDA even) and has happened before...
T-mo will eventually do whatever on their end, and they will be able to send/receive larger photo files.
Idk why, but when I take a screenshot of my screen, whatever it may be, and I text it to someone, the screenshot is super blurry and distorted, but when I email it it's fine? My cousin's iPhone does not do this, and it's bugging me. Is it a compression issue?

Yes. Stock MMS application compresses picture mail.

Does resolution factor into this?

Its purely application controlled. The mms apk compresses images before they are sent. If you check out a custom rom such as calkulins i believe he raises the compression limit allowing you to send larger file sizes. Alternately if you're not rooted and dont want to you might want to look into a 3rd party mms application such as gosms or handcent. I can't guarantee these to be different as i don't use them, but lots of people seem to have success.
I agree though. Stock mms is quite shades mcgee in this respect.

Thanks for your informative reply, I will try a 3rd party app
I've been using Handcent for quite a while now, but I've decided to go back to stock. I just like the look of stock a lot more than Handcent, and I don't need nearly all the features that Handcent offers. Unfortunately, stock SMS doesn't have a signature option. I'm on Verizon as well, so I have to have an app that has the "SMS Split" option as well. If it matters, I'm using CM9 RC2 for the R800x. Does anybody have any suggestions?
Looking for SMS Split and Signature features?
You should have slashed other choices and picked GO SMS Pro right from the beginning.

I'm speaking to somebody who made a version of stock that had the SMS splitting feature for Verizon. Well, not speaking, I just messaged them for the first time.
