SMS Scrolling chopiness - Quastion to everyone and JF! SOLVED VIA RC33! - G1 Android Development

Yes, I have 100+ SMS's on my G1.
I also have a lot of thing that counts 100+.
BUT:
While scrolling files, pics, contacts - perfect, 99% smooth.
Scrolling SMS - is very laggy via standard application, though in ChompSMS.
Does someone have bug like this??
Is this removable\editable somehow, JF?
Thanks!

simple solution install SMS Backup from the Market and backup all your sms then delete the threads ........................... common sense should tell you that the problem is that you have too much SMS to load which is why it lags

I gotta agree with deleting the threads. I had something like 950+ txt messages from my woman and sometimes chomp and even worse the default messenger would just choke at loading all the messages. I installed smsbackup and send those messages to my gmail account and deleting the threads makes it a lot faster now.

In my opinion, this problem of too many sms' would be solved by there being a delete messages after they are x amount of days setting. I don't know why this isn't stock.

I had this problem, but RC33 fixed it for me.

I totally agree!! Just checked -
THE RC33 ABSOLUTELY CORRECT THE SMS's X-AMOUNT CHOPINESS!
I <ะท Google.
Even more now)
Solved.
Update: ChompSMS still laggy scrolls, though the default app works and scrolls perfectly!

My RC33 is still really laggy. If you want to have 100% smooth scrolling text with tons of messages, use K9 SMS. It's phenomenal.

Any settings for audible reminder of SMS or email?

My wife is replacing her Samsung Highlight with a new MT4G, which we can all appreciate is a significant upgrade. One feature her Highlight did, was remind her that she had unread SMS text every 5 minutes or so. For her, phone in purse, car, whatever, it's rather helpful. Can I set something similar on her ny MT4G? The LED blinking isn't gonna cut it for her. And I don't want to tell her the Highlight can do something better than the MT4G! Thanks

Not sure about the built-in app, but Handcent SMS can do this and has some pretty nice other features as well.
ChompSMS also has the feature but that program's buggy. It causes the mms service to crash on my mt4g when I receive a picture mms and also causes the laucher to go all black on my wife's vibrant.

I'm confused how handcent would integrate with how MT4G handles messages...it seems like MT4G integrates SMS with facebook/twitter and your contacts. Would handcent mess with this???
It doesn't completely replace the built in messenger, texts are still accessible from the builtin app as well as from handcent. You just install handcent and then configure the builtin one to stop notifying on new messages. All the account links remain in place.
How about something for email? I don't SMS but I would like reminders about email received.
And calls missed, how about for that? I used to have reminders on a older non-smart phone and miss it.
I checked for other programs by those who did Handcent SMS, but nothing there. What can be recommended for (reliable and hopefully very configurable) reminders?

[Resolved] Handcent or GO SMS?

Which one is better for u guys?
Right now I have handcent but want to kno what others think bout GO SMS.
Thank you in advance.
Sent from my G2
i use Go SMS. i have used handcent as well, except there are some annoyances i have with it. handcent seems to lag my phone more and isn't as smooth. also, when you have the pop up option on in handcent, the pop up comes up and there's a stretched background that you can't seem to change, maybe thats just me. its always that venice street looking default background. honestly try both, i reverted back to go sms. actually go sms runs in apps with only 44.0KB compared to handcent's 2.09 on mine
Go is much smoother on my phone also. Definately my fav.
Go sms it is.
Sent from my G2
Go SMS. Much smaller and smoother than Handcent.
I am trying GO SMS for the first time, I am a long time handcent user (since I bought my moment and hated its SMS app a few years back).
Anyway, just installed. First impression is it is quick. Feels lots faster than handcent on my epic (midnight 2.9 rom + ext4).
Only issue I have is, it doesn't show all the contact pictures. They come from facebook linking. Handcent displayed them with no issues. Guess it isn't a deal breaker. Just would be nice, now that I have become used to them being there.
B+
Been using the GO SMS n it just feels cleaner to me.

GO SMS!
IT's much faster on my HDH & I much prefer the GUI.
Try them both and see for yourself.
I vote GO though!
Go sms is faster than Hancent ..

What app do you use to see how many KBs it uses while running?
Has anyone had issues with not receiving MMS from others using GO SMS? My cousin uses GO but when he sends me pics/videos/music, I never get it. When he sends via Handcent they go through just fine.

I get the sme problem with mms.
I get mms through stock msg fine.
Sent from my G2
Handcent sms
After testing both, definately using Gosms
GO SMS for me too
i've recently had a bug with gosms but i do like it better
I've been a Handcent user for a long time, but it has been a lot of delay to open D:
Now i'm using and it is very smooth and light. Unfortunately, it doesn't show my contacts pictures and in Handcent show up, no issues.
Someone has this issue or it is really a Go SMS problem?
Thanks!
Handscent. Like the ability to change themes, full customization.
my GoSMS shows the contact pictures from my google contacts just fine. add a pic to contact using gmail contacts on a computer. then allow the phone to sync. send that person a txt to see if it shows the picture. i also have sim contacts disabled, and no facebook stuff going on. hope that helps
handcent is like bloatware. I went with 1 year for it before I found Go. WAY BETTER. GoSMS all the way.
used handcent for a while, now i m playing with gosms... smoother, some fine animation and a lot more reliable through some advanced settings so GOSMS, does the trick
Go SMS for me. I tried handscent and was annoyed by the ads when you have an internet connection. Another is Go SMS's interface is much cleaner than handscent.

I'm not trying to be rude, really, but you need to use spell check or something because your spelling & grammar create an impression that makes you seem child-like & lazy, and in turn could turn some people away. I know I reached for the back button before I even finished reading. Just something to think about.
I'm pretty sure there's not a way to do what you're asking. You could do the opposite, use handcent or chomp as your main messaging app and blacklist the conversation. Do note that this will make all communication with that number invisible in the app & you will not receive notifications (you will from the stock sms app unless you turn them off) until you take them off of the blacklist.
An easier solution: don't delete your text messages. If you feel like you have to, make a plan to delete only every day or two (or however long you prefer) and do a backup prior. I hope you realize that text messages use very little space & there's no real reason to delete them immediately unless you're trying to hide them. Just think before you act... and problem solved.

Return of the SMS client

So, i've been using Handcent for a while now, and it has it's quirks, especially when you want to create custom tones for each sender.
An then i tried Pansi SMS, pretty new in the market, does what any other 3rd party sms app does, slightly easier when doing custom sms tones.
GOSMS is a no-go
ChompSMS, never tried it
Anyone has an opinion on which client they're using that does not lag when scrolling the conversations list? With the exception of stock app, that is.
The search for the perfect SMS app continues............
Why is GoSMS a no-go? I have 15000 messages on my phone in over 300 threads and there is not even the slightest lag on scrolling in the conversation list. Granted it is a not a "light" app but there isnt a performance issue and its very much bug-free.
In fact its the only sms client I have found that can support so many messages and not slow to absolute crawl just trying to start up.
i use go sms and i have about 6000 sms stored and no lag at all
i dont need custom ring tones or any of that other crap mind
i've never thought about using an other sms-client. what's wrong about the stock one? it scrolls also very smooth and is clean...
There's a few problems with the stock sms client compared to 3rd party ones. I use gosms because:
a) as mentioned above the stock app really doesnt handle a large number of texts well. It fails to start most of the time and can become very laggy when dealing with a large number of texts.
b) gosms supports emoji emoticons that are cross-compatible with iphone emoji emoticons.
c) ability to send to as many contacts in one go as you want without resorting to a modded stock app.
d) theme customisation.
e) able to have a custom ringtone and vibrate pattern for sms. I find this useful as I have my phone on silent most of the time and like the fact I can set gosms to do 4 short buzzes when I receive a text so I can differentiate between normal notifications (like facebook, email) and sms whilst it is in my pocket.
As I said I think my biggest issue with gosms is that it has too many features. I really dont want a chat client built in to my sms app, or the ability to lock it, have folders, see a list of all my contacts, message filter etc etc.
go sms was a no-go for me due to lag when i tried it about 4 months ago i think
maybe newer versions have improved
can you share what dpi you're on? i'm running at 240.
Currently on 320dpi because I'm back to using TouchWiz as I find the other launchers are still a little laggy compared to it.
I was using GoLauncher and GoSMS at 280dpi just a few weeks ago though and it seemed fine then. Im on LC1 stock deodexed. I advise you to be on one of the newer Samsung firmwares if you are not already. There was a huge performance jump between the K** based firmwares and the newer L** based firmwares.
i am on Chrack's LC1. May give GoSMS another...go.

Pushbullet not syncing SMS with Mate 9

Folks, am I just the only one that cannot use Pushbullet with SMS sync?
I have tried all possible settings without success
Any advice?
I'm having the same issue. Googled around but haven't found any solutions. All permissions are set as should be.
Exact same issue, stopped working on Mate 8 immediately after Nougat update. I suppose this is related to the app itself...
Same here. I'm a pro user so I emailed support. Will report what I hear.
I read somewhere (I thought here) that Pulse Messenger was working, it is not - for me at least. I really like this phone/phablet but no sms sync to chrome is killing me.... I imagine I could root and flash a rom but EMUI 5 has actually grown on me.
From what I've been able to find, it's the way Huawei handles sms messaging. The only program that I've found to work for pc messaging is MYSMS and you have to make it your default sms app for it to work.
Pulse does work. I installed it on a flight and we all know how great airplane internet is Anyway, I resync'ed my messages and all is well.
PB got a couple updates over the last couple weeks and the behavior is changed for the better. Not perfect but much better and usable (for me at least). Messages are now sync'ing to my device but when I reply from the chrome extension I don't see my reply on my phone but the recipient does get it. If I reply from the phone, I do see my message on the chrome extension.
textra works great for sms on my mate 9, also try to wipe cache and reset your default messaging app that may help,

Have you heard anything?
I'm having the same problem on my Honor 8. It's not just a pushbullet thing because other apps I use to text (Tasker and Coffee) also don't appear in my texting app (Textra). I'm on 6.0.

I confirm, it works again for me as well.
Being able to see within the messaging app the messages sent via web is another issue, most likely due to the messaging app itself. I use gosms and I've never been able to see the messages sent by "third-party" in the app. It should work with Textra tho.
Yes, they acknowledged hearing from other Huawei owners but nothing firm on a fix. Like you said, it appears to be a Huawei issue. I think the big unknown is, is this a bug or working as designed (for some unknown reason). Outside of this issue, I absolutely love this phone but will move on to something else in a couple years unless this gets fixed.

Is there any update on this? I've been having the same issue, tried Join, Pushbullet, and MightyText. On the SMS app side, tried the OEM app, Google Messages, and Textra. No matter what, SMS sent from the browser do not appear in the SMS app (but the recipient does receive them so that's good). Ugh...
Edit: yeah Pulse seems to work completely - I can see SMS's sent from Chrome/Pulse in the Pulse SMS app and other SMS apps. Guess they found a work-around for this
Hi,
Having same issue here with P9, mighty text or Pushbullet. Messages sent via PC don't show in SMS app, whatever app I use.
Haven't tried Pulse yet...
Do others have solved this with Pulse?
