im looking for a simple today plugin that will count incoming and outgoing text messages. I'm specifically wanting to keep track of the IM messages with OZ messenger.
any ideas?
Try the BatteryStatus plugin... (version 1.04, i think)
problems with battery status
i've used battery status and i noticed some odd behavior related to this. the SMS count would go up even when i had not sent or received a text. i didn't feel like it was reliable.
maybe i'll try it again. thanks

I have been having a continuous but random problem on Cyanogen's builds, was hoping it would be fixed...
Occasionally I will not receive texts from my girlfriend who's on Verizon. This is extremely frustrating because she thinks I'm ignoring her or something.
I also will sometimes receive a Notification of a text, but not be able to access the text. Like, I'll click on it, and I'll see the previous texts, but the one I saw in the Notification bar won't show up at the bottom. This problem is both in ChompSMS and the regular Messaging app.
I have had the Notification problem with other people as well, but so far, it seems like the 'missing texts' problem happens only with my girlfriend's texts. She doesn't miss my texts, I miss hers.
I have dgAlert Classic and ChompSMS, I will be disabling them one by one and see if that's my problem instead of CyanogenMod. But just checking to see if anyone else has had this problem.
i had this same problem, fort it was my phone, i use sms popup, that pop ups with the message, but i don't get the original notification on the pull down bar, and no LED light
That's a workaround, but is there any actual -fix- for this?
Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this. What SMS app do you use, or do you use the included Messaging app?
Just wanted to add I experience this issue too. I use a widget that displays my latest message, and it shows the latest message there but occasionally there will be no notifications and the message will only appear in the widget, no where else. My fix, which im currently experimenting with, is using the default Mms.apk, not the modified one. I will post results soon.
That is a good idea, let us know what the result is!
If you can get no missing messages/notifications for 3 days without reboot, I'll be impressed and try the same myself.
Well, no luck. Default Mms.apk still has the same problems.
I've had it happen once where I was in Market, got an SMS notification, and pressed Back a bunch of times to get to Home screen. Then I looked at the notification and clicked, but there was no message.
THEN WHO WAS PHONE?
Nah but, maybe it's pressing Back a lot of times? I don't know. I wish it would get looked at and fixed, it seems like everyone just ignores it if I bring this up.
ok I searched but couldn't find anything related to what I am having issues with. I have cyanogen 4.2.8.1 but the issue started when i switched to 4.2.x. I am getting SMS notifications and it has the text in the notification bar (the notification also reads "0 new text" but the contents are next to it like normal) but when I open it by clicking the notification or going to the messaging app manually it doesn't show the new sms. this happens randomly and is kind of annoying for me and the people I have to ask to resend their txt. any help would be appreciated thanks.
I hope this is the right section to ask this, so here goes:
I have Handcent SMS installed on my G1 running Eclair. When running Cupcake, I easily disabled the built in messaging notifications so that I did not get that 'white envelope' in the notification bar. But, for some reason, in Eclair, when I disable notifications in the default messaing app, I am still getting the white envelope in the notification bar that says I have unread messages...I have that in addition to the Handcent icon...
Does anyone have any idea how to completely disable the notification for messaging in Eclair?
You can uninstall/delete the messaging apk.
I always wondered if that could be done...didnt know if removing that would remove the SMS capabilities of the phone (IE: if Handcent relied on it for API calls or something)

I wouldn't remove the Messaging app, some people have had problems. As in, no text messages AT ALL. The sms replacements rely on the messaging app for the actualt texts, they just read them from there
Don't think so because I used to just use handcent w/o the default messaging app when I was running a hero rom a while back and never heard anyone complain about me not getting their messages.
Worst case, just push the original back.
So I was having stability issues with Ecliar, and dropped down to Cupcake for a while until the Eclair dust settles and a few more stable releases are made. But, I am experiencing the same problems now, as I was with Eclair.
I installed Handcent, as I prefer it over the stock SMS/MMS application. In the default Messaging application, I have disabled everything regarding notifications, and I am still receiving the white envelope in the notification bar alongside the Handcent icon, indicating a new message. The only way for me to rid myself of the white envelope is to open the notification bar, and press the Clear button.
Can anyone point out what I may be missing? That while envelope is really irritating, heh.
This might be a very stupid question, but how can I see when I received an SMS? As long as they were sent/received today there is no problem, but for earlier days all I get is the date or 'yesterday'.
If I'm out on town and check my hero for messages at 00:01 it is kind of important if the message "Hi, I'm at xyz-bar, meet me there!" was received at 23:59 or 19:30...
Yeh i have same problem... Only workaround i could think of was install an app like HandCent SMS - that does exactly what u want...

I missed this functionality too so been using handcent sms for the last month or so and does the job nicely. Just make sure you turn off the default messaging app auto retrival so you dont get the same message notified in each app.
Thanks guys, handcent seems to do the job just fine, while displaying the actual date and time!
If you don't like Handcent, there's also something called SMS Time Fix or something along those lines.
I love Handscent SMS but there are a few problems....
When I sent messages people seem to get them twice...at least with MMS...
When I get messages my notification tone plays twice...and it's annoying. Even though I have already set handscent as the default messaging program it still does these things...is there a way to avoid it?
I tried Chomp SMS and it said something about disabling notifications in Android. I haven't got to test this much but it may work for Handscent also. I prefer Handscent so far over Chomp. The layout is a little nicer.

go into your stock messaging app settings (not handcent settings) and disable notifications. that should fix the double notification tone.
dont know about the double mms thing you are having though. i love handcent and i refuse to use the default messaging app
I sometimes get double replies from people through handcent though I don't think I'm actually receiving the SMS twice. It seems like some glitch :x .. as for MMS.. I'm not too sure but Handcent has a dedicated forum you should try visiting with a question as they would probably have a better answer X_x
