2.1 Messaging App Facebook Status on Froyo

Hey all,
I really liked the fact that i could see the facebook status of the person that i was texting at the top of the thread in 2.1. Is there anyway that you could get that same functionality in Froyo?

haha i just noticed its not there! LOL nice catch. Bump to this

i still have it

Would porting the messaging app from 2.1 to 2.2 be the only way we could do this? Would this even be possible? Because i know a lot of people use Handcent but the reason i dont use it is because i like being able to see the persons most recent facebook status at the top of my thread

Not there just checked.

I hate the new messaging app. So cluttered and messy with pictures for EACH message. Not to mention the gray box for me!

It's a gray box for you because your sim doesn't list your number. If you see your number under Settings -> About -> Status. If it lists your number under My Number you can just add yourself as a contact with a picture and it will show up. Otherwise there are some phones that allow you to add the number. I personally used a simcard-reader/writer for my computer.

Yeah i have seen the messanging app on my freinds phone and i dont really mind the fact that there is a picture for each message, but I would really miss seeing the persons most recent facebook status because I might not necessarily see thier status on my news feed. The lack facebook status on the messanging app is the only reason I havent flashed the froyo test build

Bump for help/info

What info or help do you want? It's gone.

Idk maybe some info on a possible backport? The new messanging app is not as clean as the old one in my opinion

I know, but thanks for your help. I had to use an old SE phone to change my SIM number. But seriously this is a really large oversight on Google's part. Like I am suppose to make a contact of myself just so I can have a picture there?? That's ridiculous.

Is also like this. Much prefer the messaging app from cyanogenmod /:

No it's not and I've been making self contacts on my phones for the better part of a decade.
You people ***** about the stupidest things lol.

Well my friend tried yesterday to simply uninstall the 2.2 messanging app and to simply install the 2.1 APK using ASTRO and it failed to install. Im not sure if pushing with ADB will work but just trying to simply delete and install definitely didnt work

[APP][2.3.3+] WhatsApp Bomber

Hey all! I was bored, and decided to try my luck on a WHATSAPP BOMBER. It just sends the desired message the desired number of times to the same contact. I'm not sure where it works, but it does work on my GNex with AOKP and several other devices. I'm not to blame for any damage, malfunctions or whatever caused by the app. You do everything because you want to do it, not because i told you, and if you kill someone elses phone I'm not responsible either!
1. Download + unpack the zip.
2. Install the whatsapp-bomber-sign.apk
3. Open up the Bomber.
4. Enter your Message and the desired number of times the message shall be sent.
5. Check/Uncheck the Checkbox.
6. Click the upper Button.
7. Choose the Contact to bomb.
8a. Devices WITH recent apps-button: Hit the recent apps-button, select the Bomber again.
8b. Devices WITHOUT recent apps-button: Hit the HOME-button, open the Bomber again. (If it doesn't work try repeating steps 8-10 here.)
9. Hit the second button.
10. Wait.
11. ???
12. PROFIT
It's gonna take ~1 second between the messages to be sure everything works properly... if it works.
Please report your Device + ROM and whether it works or not so i can keep the list up to date.
Working on:
Samsung Galaxy Nexus GT-I9250 - AOKP Build 35
Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 - Stock
Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100
- Criskelo v9 ICS 4.0.3

Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 - Stock 2.3.5
HTC Desire S - Stock 2.3.7
HTC Desire HD - IceColdSandwich
LG Optimus 2X P990 - CM9
Seems not to work on:
Motorola Atrix - MIUI V4 2.4.27

Tried WhatsFun before, but all it does is it packs the text a certain number of times in ONE message. My app's gonna send the same message a defined number of times.
Please report your Device + ROM and whether it works or not so i can create a list from that.

I will test it.
Thx...

Did you do everything as guided? You could try and hit the first button, choose a contact, home, first button again, home, second button, and if you do so please uncheck the checkbox. Report again afterwards.

Couldn't you do the same thing with tasker?

it is possible when you click on Click this first, then come back and click the second button! you will get a list with all your whatsapp contacts, and on the bottom you'll see a icon with 1 person and one with 3 people if you click on the icon with 3 people you can bomb a whatsapp group conversation. Works real smooth thx for this awesome app!
Oh and btw I didnt use your signed whatsapp I have the original one from the market and that one is also working I only installed the bomber and its working great!
Good job keep improving your app with more features ^^

You're right, you CAN bomb group conversations.
I just included the resigned whatsapp.apk to be sure WA isn't making problems.
I'll add whatever I can realise and what makes sense in a bomber.

Ah ok well its working perfectly ^^
Would there be a way to send the messages faster or wouldnt that be possible?
To add a option like Fast Go or something like that, that it will send the messages way faster?

I hardcoded the time between apps for now, it takes like 350 - 500ms for each message to send, and i set a thread.sleep to 1000ms to be sure every message is sent. if you wait less not every single message is sent, some are just skipped. could add a slider to adjust the time between the messages, that's true. I'll add it in a second, gotta get some docs on the slider, never used one b4.

Updated OP, there is a SeekBar to control the delay now. Goes from 500 to 1000ms, as i don't think a bomber makes sense when you wait more than a second between the messages. took me quite some figuring to get the textview to update on dragging the SeekBar thumb.

Gmail freeze when swiping to switch mails !

Hi,
When I swipe to the left or right to switch mail in Gmail, it freeze like that: http://youtu.be/rIpPCpZcf64
When I lift my finger, the mail goes into position very, instead of finishing the shift normally, such as the app drawer for example.
There is the same problem with Google Image, but worse !
Can someone say me if it's normal or how to fix this ?
I have a Nexus 4 with Paranoid Android, thanks.

Nobody ?

I watched your video and did not see anything wrong. Gmail appears to be doing what it is supposed to do.

Stock sms app

The app does exist in my phone, it's working, but when I swipe to right from contacts to send sms, it redirect's me to whatsapp. How do I get back to default the stock sms app without reinstalling my custom rom? (Ultra DecentLite v4)

You could go into settings and reset all your defaults to see if that works. A number of apps innervate them selves when they install, which can be a PITA.

Ah I see, sounds like a bug in that custom ROM then, tell the dev see if there's a fix
Or uninstall messenger and see if it sets as default the stock messaging app

If I uninstall Messenger there will be blank.
It's strange because I'm using this rom (Decent Ultra Lite v4) from a while and I think this problem appeared since I've started to use Xposed modules.

A logcat will do the job (atleast 50%) ?

It might help the dev, not me
