Android Messages app - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

Hi All,
I would like to try to use Android Messages instead of the stock messaging app on my Xiaomi Mi 6.
After installing, I am unable to see my old messages/conversations. The app works, but seems to start off with a clean slate.
Every other 3rd party SMS app ive tried always shows my old message history.
Has anyone else had this problem? I’m wondering if Android Messages somehow uses a different messages database. I’m using the latest official MIUI 9 Global Rom.
Thanks

Samsung Messaging has a crappy theme but it's superior to the stock Messaging app.

Superior in what way?
Thanks a lot!
The standard samsung app is better than stock but graphically deviates too much from holo.
I immediately downloaded the application that you have shown me, but unfortunately doesn't work ... After having opened app it crashes.
In particular, he shows me the list of all messages (distinguishing read from unread) but when I try to go into a conversation stops everything.
I use GoLauncherEx on Samsung official 4.0.3 rom. When the application crashes, even golauncher crashes! For a few seconds the screen is all black (it show me only tray bar)!
I know that GoLauncherEx isn't optimized for ics but is the only launcher that lets me create folders in the program list (I have much application and I need it!).
Actually ICS isn't very stable on my device and I'm almost regretting gingerbread!
I can do anything about it?
Thanks again for your support,
I hope one day I'd help forum people.

That is very strange. Which firmware did you install? I installed XEO (polish version) and didn't get a single crash or problem what so ever. I had a few problems in rooting it, though (needed to wipe it first and re-flash the orginial ICS firmware before rooting to get the root rights recognized). But once that got fixed, everything was and still is perfect.
Or maybe it is because of the go launcher ex? I was using TW the entire afternoon (13.03) without crashes. At night I installed Apex launcher as system launcher and no crashes either (one day running), very low battery consumption and awesome looks. You can add the ICS Theme Pack from kovdev to get the ICS icons.
Hello element!
I've installed the XEO firmware, then polish, just like you.
I have not done the wipe but updated via OTA.
I had already installed GoLauncher. When I've upgraded I've selected Golauncher instead of Tw.
Currently I have encountered frequent application crashes and one total block of the system. The battery, to be honest, I can not tell if it lasts more than gingerbread why I used the phone a lot for various customizations.
I do not know if the problem is that I did not do a wipe.
If he continues to give me problems I do a backup. After I install the rom again.
Tonight I remove the battery and after power on. Tomorrow, we'll update on my test.
PS The biggest problem is GoSmsPro. it sends multiple messages at one time. If I send you a message, you will receive two. I do not know how to solve.
PS2 The root I did with Odin and had no problems ...
Thanks for the help,
Hello!
As I promised you I a write updates.
I solved the problem of low stability: I made a deepclean and then installed applications without syncing (I installed all the applications manually).
Now I have one problem, the phone crashes when I try to change the background. If you have any idea: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23727272#post23727272
For the rest new rom does not seem bad ...
Thanks for your help,

Hey, check it out: One so called Tim Hutt put the stock calendar, messaging, and launcher app in the market and they all work just fine for me. The apps are called "Android 4 ICS Messaging SMS", "Android 4 ICS Calendar", and "Android 4 ICS Launcher".
The only bug I have (and it's not a big one) is that the screen doesn't light up when you receive a text message... Perhaps this is because I disabled/removed the official Samsung messaging services though... If you leave the default services enabled, then the screen lights up like normal but you have to select a setting in the ICS messaging app to disable the message receiver because then both the Samsung app and the ICS app will both write the text message to the database and you'll have duplicate incoming messages. Just go to settings and scroll to the very bottom to see what I mean... Enable that option if you don't remove the Samsung services/apps.

Facebook Messenger and Lollipop

Did anyone else notice that Facebook Messenger has become really sluggish after the update to Lollipop? I am running the latest Viper Lollipop ROM and for some reason Facebook Messenger has been performing really poorly. I tried rebooting the device and reinstalling the app to no avail. I'd write a message and after I hit send, it'd just lag the whole device (kinda like freeze it) for a while and then come back to life.
I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing that, but I believe I've read similar complaints about it so I thought I should ask for information and/or advice.
Are there similar apps to Facebook Messenger than work better than it does? IM+ perhaps?
Thanks guys!
Hi, I'm on stock Lollipop and don't experience any problems.
Try to use the search function a bit better next time

I'm on stock and the app is fine until i send a message it then lags for ages until the message has sent then it is fine again until i send another message. I've been tempted to cleare the cache/data for the app and give it another go. So yeah i'm having the same issue as you.

Thank you! I am sorry I just thought of starting a new thread since I didn't see any recent one dedicated to it (may have missed it) - my apologies. I tried the one where I disabled the in-app sounds and it seems to have worked!
I was having the same issue on ViperROM but i guess i got an update today and now the messenger is working smooth.
Okay, just figured it out. disable "Use NuPlayer" option from your devlopers setting and the messenger would work fine.

[Q] Cannot send voice message in Facebook Messenger

I cannot send a voice message in Facebook Messenger using the latest Official MIUI 5 build 50.
Does anybody had a workaround for this? Does it occur also in non-MIUI roms for RedMI1s or its just the MIUI rom only. If I ever found a fix for this, I will post it here also.
Not for me atleast,running CM11 R22.

WhatsApp notifications under Android 5.02 LP

Does anyone know a reliable app that can send notifications to the SM2 when on Android 5.02?
I used to have Watchify but this does not work under 5.02 (which seems to be abandoned by the Dev and buggy as crap a.t.m.) :crying:
I have tried other solutions but these are even more crappy looking or either not working: WatchIt etc.
My current setup is: Sony Xperia Z3 Compact with Stock Official 5.02 installed.
Im currently using Smartwatch2 Notifier Pro with 4.4.4 KitKat on my Z3, there is a free version in the PlayStore that you can try out.

I'm not using WhatsApp, but this thing sends all notifications correctly on 5.0.2.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.shuisky.notify
Notifications popup (you can select white or black background, timeout for it to disappear,...) and by default sends all notifications, you can add apps to blacklist on the phone. Since this one I look for no other apps. And the widget actually shows valuable part of the info + icon.
I only get a site not found in germany.
Notify doesnt seem to be compatible with all phones and gears :/
Hi guys I dont know if you still looking but for whatsapp this app works just fine, one of this forum did it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ingeniousapps.hellosmartwatch. Need root for reply messages from the watch.
I needed to pay it twice, because I change countries and I needed to factory reset my phone for a boot loop, and for some reason needed to pay again. Was just 3$.

[Whatsapp] [Solved] Does the icon badge for new messages work for you?

Hi!
When you receive a new message, does sense home show a small number badge on the whatsapp icon like on previous HTC devices?
On my 10 i dont get the badge...does the new sense home support it for third party apps at all?
Newsest whatsapp version is already installed. Didnt try a reinstall yet, wanted to hear your experiences first.
Thanks!
I haven't got it

Same issue here as well
Same here. This might be a Whatsapp specific issue though, I do get the unread count on Mail, Telegram and Gmail apps.
Hm, when reading the FAQ on the whatsapp page im not sure that this is an issue with whatsapp, cause they are "blaming" the launcher, if it doesnt work.
Same problem here with whatsapp. I use typemail for email and that does show a unread badge
Same here. I use MS Outlook as Mailclient and it doesn't show badges as well. How is the chance that this will get a fix soon? ^^
It was working on whatsapp for me until I did a factory reset... Now it doesn't work

I didnt do a reset, it just didnt work out of the box. Maybe lets wait for the next Whatsapp version. Any other ideas?
Doesn't work for me either. I have send Whatsapp-support a message about this.
I believe this is an issue with Sense Home as I have the same problem with WhatsApp and also with truecaller. For true caller, I once got 1 notification and now it just wont go away or change.
Got the Sense Home update, but still the same problem. Can anyone who has the icon badge work on Whatsapp confirm it? Is it not working for all HTC 10 owners or only a few?
I got a sense update and a whatsapp update yesterday and now I can see the notification number on the icon
Whatsapp update version 2.16.98 fixed it.
Fixed on my end as well ????

Still no little number icons on my icon...
