Is anyone else having issues with handcent? Im sometimes getting force closes, then the stock messaging app starts force closing then all my texts get deleted. So anyone having similar problems?

Nope, running version 2.9.31 no problem at all.

Hmm, Will do.
Tho if he is mean im going to hunt you down! lol

No problems here either, running the latest one from the android market.

i did have a weird problem at the very start when i got my Nexus One and rooted it, installed the first betas of CM Handcent would automatically move EVERYTHING to blacklist (even my wife... well...) and for days i thought all my friends had deserted me.
I uninstalled Handcent and reinstalled and it hasn't done that since. -- maybe fix permissions helped too

Try going into settings apps and see if you can clear data, that fixes lot of probs with apparently IMHO

Uninstall/reinstall

I have also sometimes FC with the latest version of Handcent. Mostly when i'm doing something in the settings.

Facebook notifications

ok coming from a blackberry to Android I have to say the Facebook app sucks when ever I get a notification ,yes it appear but it doesn't notify me on a comment and when I do open it it opens in the web browser. what's up with this its just stupid, the blackberry app was much better than this it would open the Facebook app when you opened the notification. is there any plan In the pipe line to improve this or even any mods I can use to improve this? sorry for any grammar typed on my phone in under 2 mins LOL.

There are some 3rd party facebook apps. Babbler (paid and Lite) and Bloo. I haven't really tried them so I don't know how good they are.

just downloading now will update on what its like

that's the perfect app takes a little setting up but if your having problems just ask me and ill be more than happy to give you a hand

Which app did you try? I downloaded Babbler Lite after replying and I like it much better than the official app. I haven't decided if it's worth getting the paid version yet though.

yeah im using babble lite its much better than normal Facebook I think I might buy full version just to support the devs who have made such a great app

Yeah, I'm thinking I'll end up buying this app. It's definitely the best FB app I have used.

setup
im having trouble setting up babbler, i have the full version. when i log in through babbler it just stays on the same screen that says babbler for android or something.
can someone help ?
thanks

ok well I did it thru the browser I had to go to the application thru Facebook on the browser (just search babbler on Facebook) and accept it and all then go to the application on your device and accept some more and then it all worked hope this help. they really need to sort this out this is the only big downfall with this app. anyway any problems anyone just pm me

Actually, I didn't have to go through the browser at all. I think the issue is that you have to scroll all the way to the bottom on the screen that seems to be just sitting there. At the bottom you will see the allow button.

thanks got it working.
i hope there is an update to the official facebook app for android so its like the one for the iphone which is pretty much perferct.

yeah you just need to wait till people begin to use android and it will begin to get the updates, i mean look at iphone apps there amazing cause that is THE thing atm, and blackberries also have a good following so the apps for that are normally ok, but as android is getting bigger and better ( imho its alredy the best) the apps will come rolling in like they did for the iphone/ipad

[IDEA] Reply button for SMS!

Hey everyone.
Does the "feature" where the sms one pressed is selected after all the other sms's are loaded, suddenly interrupting the writing, ever bother you guys?
I wonder if it's possible, as per the image below, "move out" the reply button from the menu list as a shortcut.
My programming skills lack here but I'd gladly make a reply icon if any of you geniuses would be able to do this.

I'm surprised not more people are bothered by this
Do the programmers think this is doable?

no its going to the message thread and you have to press on that box where you can type text before you can start with ur reply.. wich costs a tremendous ammount of time. *sarcastic mode*

I dont get the idea of fix behidn this?? Isnt that just moving the reply shortcut, it would still open the same messaging window loading all the messages still...?

Hum, so it's depend on your ROM.
On mine [Artemis], this goes in reply's mode [I'm in conversation's mode].

Remember you have to take the version of your language ROM. [the .dll of that topic is for ENG version].

Very good idea I think I don't want in that hole conversation mode. It is slow and it takes time.

I don't really follow what you're talking about.
I am using the latest Messaging.
Let me try to explain again.
When one presses the actual message, the conversation mode comes up and the sms's start loading. As soon as all the sms's finish loading, the message you had pressed becomes highlighted.
If you are writing meanwhile the messages are loading, as soon as the messages finish loading you won't see what you're writing anymore.
I've tried Artemis v14 and it was the same there.
I don't think there is a ROM that doesn't have this "feature", but if there is, please enlighten me.
If it's still unclear I could try to make a video, but I am sure that the latest HTC Messaging does not solve this, since I am using the latest one.
This is why I want the reply button out there. When pressing the reply button, no sms will be highlighted and you can write your text easily.
It is not a matter of being lazy, as I saw someone else mention earlier, but if you encounter this I don't know, maybe 20-30 times a day I ensure you it will get to your nerves!
Let me repeat myself, the thing bugging me is not that it doesn't go directly to the reply box, but that when the text you just pressed becomes highlighted, you don't see what you write anymore!

I have a similar problem.
When replying to a SMS, the messaging client loades all SMS you have in your contact box [and lagged the client] and when it finished, the keyboard comes over the typing SMS. So you can't see what you were writing.
But I merely remember a ROM |WinMo 6.5] where the messages are in the same mail client, just like on WinMo 6.1 [where mail and SMS where in the same messaging client].

Yes the NRG rom is like that for example. But I don't like the look if it. I'd rather have this solution that I'm trying to make happen!

Big WhatsApp conversation slow to open

Hi there. So, i'm having some trouble with open whatsapp big conversations, and I never had this kind of bad performance before. With big history conversations in whatsapp, when I click to open, it takes about 1 or 2 secs to open and I can normal type in keyboard, other smaller conversations do not take so long to open. Ok, I know that big histories make difference, but like I said before, I never had that kind of bad performance with big conversations in other devices and not even in my S6. I'm using PURESTOCK last version until today and I've tried Hacker, Adam and Stock kernel. Anyone have ideas? Sorry for bad english.
Thank you!

Try the usual wipe cache and dalvik in recovery. If that doesn't work, back up your chats in whatsapp, uninstall whatsapp, reinstall an restore and see if you still have the same issue

Question Google Messages notifications icon

So I just purchased a pro and coming from a 6a. I noticed when I switch to the 7 pro the notification icon was different. It was updated to look like the new app icon. I had to reset my phone and when I reset the notification icon went back to it's regular thing lol how can I get it back? Does anybody know what I'm talking about or do I just sound crazy lol please help. 🥹
current icon on the left
i want the notification icon on the right lol

Currently, you just sound crazy haha. But the notification icon should always appear to match the new app icon. If yours isn't after a drive reset, just give it time and it should correct itself automatically (maybe after a day or two).

Ehh, just give it some time. Whenever I do a full wipe before flashing a new update to my phone, certain features just aren't available for an unknown amount of days. For example, some of the Google Phone features don't show up for a week or two. And once they do show up, they only seem to roll in one feature at a time lol.
This delayed feature rollout after a wipe and fresh OS installation seems to be the current Google Mystery lol

No problem. If it never changes over in another week, feel free to reply to one of my comments and I can help ya out. You MIGHT need to do another wipe and OS reinstallation (which I can also help you with, if necessary) if the notification icon just refuses to change after more time passes.
We'll see what happens =D

And no worries. A complete wipe, reinstallation, setup and root access usually doesn't take longer than 10 minutes lol. But, I suppose it may seem like a lot of work to people less nerdy than me, haha.

10 minutes? In what universe? You cannot be serious! A few years ago it would take several hours for a factory reset/new setup! I'm assuming you mean "factory reset" when you say complete wipe???
Today I can do everything in maybe...MAYBE 2 or 3 hours but 10 minutes??? No way! You gotta be joking.

APK version shouldn't matter. I have the exact same build as you and don't have the issue that you are facing.
For what I use my phone for (basic phone functions, internet, YouTube) I don't think it's worth the risk of pushing something through unofficially - as a user uploaded APK could
always be slightly modified in some way.
*Edit* - And you also have the latest build of the app, haha. We're on the beta build - which may have been confusing my man Stano.
*Edit 2.0* - @jaseman I mean flashing the entire OS from the most up-to-date factory image via fastboot - which does indeed wipe the user partition of the drive unless you choose to modify the default flash-all document or choose to do it all manually without wiping that drive partition. But regardless of which method you choose, it still only takes me around 10 minutes to do all of that, restore my data and to grant myself root access again.
