Handcent Issue while on Fresh 2.0B2?? - Hero CDMA Themes and Apps

I send texts, and handcent says the texts werent sent, butthen the person responds like 1 minute later (without resending) anyone else having this issue?

yep I get the same thing.

I am using DamageControl's 2.1 rom and getting the same problem. I believe it is known in that thread.

Yup same exact issue as you, had the issue on fresh 2.0b2, 2.0b, and Damage0.999Espresso. Have searched all over, but cannot find a fix for this.
also Bank of America App gives a "page not found error" in all 3 of these roms.
Any Fixes would be great. I've spent the last 2 hours searching the threads to no avail.

running b2 with no Handcent problems.

Intermittent problems. Switched to chompSMS and don't seem to have problems yet. I'll update if I do.

I have the same issue with Damage's rom.

Try out chompsms. I have had zero problems!

Chomp SMS is actually better than handcent for the first time. The only thing I wish Chomp had was a pop up without quick reply. and my screen dosent turn on when someone texts me. But oh well I love it.

You can turn off the "Turn Screen On" while receiving text with Chomp. Check all your options, it's in there.

Is there a way to make chomp not have those nasty iphone looking bubbles?

I second this, I hate those.

Is everyone able to send MMS pictures thru Chomp?

Yes, I can.

As far as customization I know you may change the color of the bubbles...check out the dev website and see if you can change the style. I didn't like the bubbles at first but it grew on me. I like it much better than Handcent. Different strokes for different folks!

[Request] Screen light up on SMS

I've searched around a bit and no luck. Is there any way to get the screen to light up when a new SMS is received? The trackball lighting up is a nice idea, but I rarely notice it when my phone is on silent. I've looked through every option on the N1 and don't see it anywhere. I also searched the nexus forums here and with Google. Thanks.
wow you rarely notice the trackball? I find the trackball notification way to bright. such an option is indeed not available. I am not sure if many others have your problem, so I am guessing they wont make an app for that

Have you tried Handscent SMS: http://www.handcent.com/. Does the job nicely; turns the screen on with a handy quick reply pop-up. Make sure you disable the default message notifications mind.

Wow, this is perfect. Thank you!
If you are like me, and prefer the stock messaging app, then you should look at SMSAwake.
1 vote for Handcent from me.
It works perfectly with ALOT of options and settings to choose from.
I use SMS Popup from the Market and it works great. It also has its own notifications, or you can just use the default N1 ones.

GOSMS PRO?

Does anyone here use GO SMS PRO? Im having an issue where if a text comes in and the popup shows the message, and I dont touch the phone and the screen turns off, GOSMS PRO will mark the message as read as the notification is removed and when you go to the app, it shows that the message was read when it was not. Also if I just close the popup window it also marks the message read and there should be an option to mark it read or not. anyone know how to resolve?
If I can not, I will have to remove the program as I am missing text messags because the come in and later when I look at the phone, and go into the program, I find text messages I didnt know I had.
Hmm thats really wierd ive been using go sms pro for a while now and i havent had that problem at all. what rom are you running

SPRINT LOVERS ROM. I tested it several times. I receive a text message and as soon as the screen goes off, the notification is gone and the message is market read. I switched to a program called SMS POPUP that works with the standard text messaging app that comes with the phone and it doesnt dismiss the notification or mark the message read. I think there is a GOSMS PRO error.. also if yo just close the popup, the notification goes away.. whats funny is later I went into the GO SMS APP and I saw the popup window still open in there..

I used handcent for awhile, I really like it. I just went with gosms for a change. I like to switch it up a bit to keep my brain guessing. lol
IM trying to figure our why I need this over the STOCK app + SMS POPUP? can someone tell me??
Well because sms popup looks retarded and the stock sms app isnt better than chomp, handcent, or gosmspro. and maybe because you just wanna have your own spin on very little part of your phone

Any way to fix the SMS messages being out of order on the GB Roms?

Seems only the GB sense roms have this issue... anyone know of a fix?
Thanks
Download Go SMS. Under services (or something? one of the last two options) go to the bottom and change message order from something like "time received" to "order received" the times will still be wrong but your conversation will at least be in order..
Or try Handcent I'm sure there is a similar feature
try SMS Time Fix from the market. It worked for me when I was on GB. Its free too!!
thanks!!!

I don't see why it wouldn't work, it orders everything based on when you received it and not the time.. I tried both last night and they still worked for me..

silly question, but did you enable sms time fix and go through the settings?
I didn't think the sms time fix app worked at first since I did not run the app and turn it on lol never had an out of place text since

Problems with Handcent?

Is anybody else having problems with Handcent? I can't seem to get the popup and sound notification to work.
Nevermind. Handcent updated and now it's working perfectly.
I made the switch to GoSMS and never looked back, never had a problem with it so far. It has all of the same features Handcent does.
I've noticed a small issue where sometimes when doing a quick reply in the popup from handcent it may not send the SMS and you still have to access the app properly to send it, but it's random and not consistent.

Double texts

OK I don't know what I did, but now when my wife texts me I receive two messages - so now she's doubly annoying an naggy (joke). Anyone know how to fix this (not the annoying and naggy thing, the double text thing)?
Edit: It happens with both Handcent and stock messenger.

Do you get one message in each app or two in each?
If the latter and if she does also, you might try freezing one of the apps. I was getting the same message in both and froze the stock app.
Do have Handcent setup as default to handle both sms & mms?

Nope, default is disabled.
Is this only when your wife texts? Maybe problem is on her side.

Yep. She uses T-Mobile as well. For a while it happened why my sister and brother-in-law (also T-Mobile) texted. It's very annoying.
I have the same issue. It seems to be at random for me, with everyone I text. Hadn't figured out a pattern that let me figure out why it happens either. I'm using chompsms and get double texts on it. Weird...

Did that when I installed Hancent over a month ago.
As far I can tell this is a bug. I've had this for a while, sometimes worse than others. Hasn't been too bad lately, but I do get occasional double texts. There have been times it was every text though, sometimes up to 4 of them.N never had this issue with any phone other than this one though
Do you have an app installed called Organizer Widget ? Or any other app that has permissions to intercept text messages ? I had an issue with Organizer Widget where it would not send the "text received" signal unless I was on WiFi calling.
Try uninstalling apps that have this permission and see if it stops. Remember what the last app you uninstalled was.

From everything I've tried to find out about this in the past, it's a known issue with Gingerbread. Back on big red, My D1 running GPA15/16 had this same issue, BAD. My G2x on OTA 2.3.3 gets the random double text every once in a while, but it's far less often. There's really nothing you can do. I did find though that if I froze stock messenger I wouldn't get any text messages anymore (I think...don't really remember all that much). So my advice is just to disable notifications in the stock messenger and try not to get too upset by them.

that should have solved the double text notifications.

The issue the OP is having is NOT that he is getting one notification in stock msging and one notification in Handcent, it's that in Handcent he is getting two notifications. He had already indicated that he disabled stock notifications.
OP, I have the same problem occasionally. I have no earthly clue what causes it, or how to fix it, but you're not alone.
