Fb Intaragration on none Hero Builds-Now with SMS fix for Hero Rom!!!!

Maybe this goes in the Dream Q&A but since contacts is an app thought it goes here...
So my question is, is it possible to get the FB connection to none Hero Rom builds? Please some one tell me yes n how to... Only reason im on Hero n hate it bc still missing texts

Integration...Non.
And I'm sure if someone can make an app for that...and they have the need to...they will, but to have FB integration in the stock contacts apk is highly unlikely unless google does it themselves.

So is there actually a way to "get a google voice account?" I mean, it seems to me to be invite only.
I signed up months ago but still no invite!

its a long wait most will never get invited but it will roll out instead

This really isn't the best advice, since to '[g]et a google voice account' would require being on one of Google's magic invitation lists, and that's managed only by Google.

I have actually found the fix for the SMS issue so now able to use Hero Rom and never miss another text

I didn't make this program so I'm not gaining any money off anyone downloading and paying for it but its a program called SMStoGmail. ALL your SMS are sent to your gmail account. Those that come in and send out. The only issue i having it with are: No MMS =( Ok thats it... Also for set up make sure to go on computer and set filter so anything with "smstogmail.rly.gd" goes into your in box and never marked as Spam. Maybe once there is an update it'll do MMS but for now, you NEVER have to worry about another miss text again!!! So this way when ever you get a text it sends a copy to your email and you get a notice even if you don't get the text to your phone!!!

Uh, try Facebook Sync on the market. It syncs all your contact photos with your friends on Facebook, I used this to make myself feel better because I wasn't using a Hero build.

Automated text message after a missed call

I'm running CM 3.6.8 and every time I miss a call, my phone sends out an automated txt message to the caller.
I've searched the forums and I've searched the phone. How do I turn this feature off? Can I?
Thanks in advance.

What does the text message the caller receives? Is it gibberish or is it actually a coherent message telling the caller that your not around? I've hear of this in the past but the texts were completely incoherent so it was some sort of crazy but that a reflash took care of, but it sounds like the texts your callers get might actually be intentional. Can you provide more details?

It's acutally a legit message...
"Sorry. I'm not near my phone right now."
I'm getting tired of explaining to people that I REALLY wasn't near my phone and I'm not just screwing with them.
I'm probably guilty of being a little whiny on this one.
EDIT: I'm also running YouMail, but I've checked that six ways to Sunday and unless I'm an idiot (which is entirely possible) I can't find anything in there that would send a txt reply to a missed call).

Its got to be an app that you have that is doing it.

I will re-check the list of applications.
Any other advice?
Thanks for the help so far, I appreciate it.

I agree, if the message is legit and not looking like a computer took a dump and sent it in a text message (ie KJHHGOE*D*&R&*(*#$IHHHGIDKDKJVNNGJI))))))))))))))#00000000)
Then it must be an app that's doing it. Have you downloaded something that manages your contacts or some derivative of a missed call app that has that option maybe...

It's an app for sure, I had that at some point, auto-reply on missed calls is default. Check all apps that have anything to do with sms (sms pop-up could be the one, not sure)

I know for sure that SMS popup doesn't have options regarding auto response to a missed call. I'm pretty sure I have the latest version too...

Try intentionally missing a call and then look at the logcat logs and see what app is causing the message to go out.

Do you have the app "Power Call" that could be it.?

Push Notifications for Google Voice on Market!

New update for google voice!! It includes (I think) push notification for text messages!

Yeah it does. Read more here: http://googlevoiceblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/faster-google-voice-experience-on.html

Yep, sure looks that way. I wonder if it's necessary to put Google Voice on ignore list for task killer apps though.

Yes it is. If you kill the GV process, you won't receive notifications.

Advanced Task Manager has "Apps", "Services", "All Apps", and "System". I think it's OK to kill it from "Apps", but not the other tabs.

I don't seem to get push notifications on my voicemail. I haven't check with texts yet....

hooray!!!!

Same here. I had to go to my backup file in oder to use it. Thank Goodness for Back-Ups

Same here. I was, however, able to sign in after selecting "sign in using a different account" and using my same account info.

I love this update because of the sync with inbox. When I first finished installing the update I couldn't send a sms or do the sync so I just rebooted, ran fix_permissions, and that fixed everything!

The google blog post said the inbox syncing would stop the forwarding of a google voice SMS to the phone's regular SMS number. That is NOT the case for me. I'm still getting google voice SMS'es forwarded to my cell's number. This double text receiving is the single greatest aggravation of google voice texting.

That worked....but the weird thing is I don't have inbox sync as a new option. I still have the refresh option, but it says that it's the new version. I'll try to uninstall and reboot.
edit: Still no new options.

Guys, am I alone in this? The new Voice app is not syncing/pushing texts for me, nor is it not forwarding. It's behaving like the old one.

Why even whine about this? Just go to the website and uncheck forwarding.

You don't understand how Voice forwarding works. The "forwarding" setting on the Voice website is for additional forwarding of a text to an email address. Voice by default has always forwarded to the cell phone number associated with the Voice account. That was supposed to end with this update.
The Google blog post says the following:
"...feature called Inbox synchronization, which will notify your Android-powered device of new text messages or voicemails within seconds of receiving new messages..."
and
"Plus, Google Voice will automatically disable SMS forwarding to your mobile phone, so you won’t receive duplicate notifications."
It's odd to me that both these features do not work. Maybe we can figure out something by discussing.
btw, why is this whining? We're discussing an app and its features. We're trying to get this working and comparing notes with others. I don't whine... ever. We're blessed to have such amazing phones and software to begin with.

ClockworkMod DesktopSMS: Sending and receiving texts from your XOOM (and desktop)

DesktopSMS forwards all your incoming SMS on your *Android Phone* to your Gmail to GTalk.
You can then reply to the chat request or email, and the response will be sent back from your phone as a text message. This is very similar to Google Voice, except you won't need a new number or anything annoying like that!
http://app.net/desktopsms
Installation:
1) Install DesktopSMS on your ANDROID PHONE. (Not onto your XOOM)
2) Login to Desktop SMS on your ANDROID ****PHONE****.
3) Install a Chat client like Google Talk (which may already be on your XOOM) onto your XOOM or desktop PC.
4) Receive a text. Watch as your text gets converted to an email and google chat message
5) Respond!
So, once again, this app is only installed on your phone. Then just install your favorite IM client on your desktop and tablet, and the rest will work magically!
You do not need to install this on both your phone and tablet like other apps. You do not need to be on the same network like other apps. This all works by magic (my servers).
Let me know what you think. This is in a free beta right now, so be prepared for some bugs! I'd love to hear your feedback.

Wrote you a PM

well, I don't have a smart phone so thats a problem.
I, like many others, have ditched their smartphomes and activated their xooms. I now only have a dummy phone. I didn't see a need in paying for two data plans because I ws rarey using my phone. Now I use it to talk and text.... even though I wish it was only to talk.
I am waiting for the day that I can SMS on my Xoom using my current phone number. Guess I'll jabe to keep waiting. lol

Works awesome...just had a conversation with myself, through gtalk. Hahaha havnt tried it with my xoom yet. But im pretty sure it will work just fine. Very good job

It looks great but I cannot seem to get it to work yet, Mr. Koush. I have it signed it with push notifications successfully on my gmail account on my OG Droid. I can do the test message from within the app and it pops up on my phone like always, but other than that it does nothing on my Xoom, or on anything else for that matter. It seems almost like the push notifications are not even being sent out.
EDIT: I found out what the problem was. I had the default messaging app totally disabled, as I am using Handcent SMS as a complete replacement to the default one. I would like to use Handcent SMS instead of the default one. I know its beta and I cannot wait for updates!

It looks like after you receive your first text from that person after you accepted the "chat invite" on your Gtalk account it syncs up with your current contact list automatically. It shows the phone number on the left side of the screen under your gmail account, but in the chat window it shows that contacts name in parenthesis.
This ofcourse is for if you are using the Xoom with Gtalk, such as myself. I haven't tried anything else yet.

Could it be that the contacts NAME will be in the gtalk LIST instead of phonenumber ?

OK, being a bit thick here.
I'm using GoSMS Pro, but as far as I know, the default messaging app is still active, just without any notifications... does this make a difference?
Not currently receiving any notifications in email or g-talk... :/

Are u signed in in the app? The first time the app froze, i had to go back into it and sign in.
Just tested it with my xoom and it works great.

Looking for a little help, I have the app installed on my HTC desire HD, and it will forward the text to my gmail and talk, but when I reply nothing happens. Am i missing something, I've triedreplying through talk and gmail, and nothing from both.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

*edit* update took care of it, never mind.

@Koush
I am having an issue getting the app to try it out. When I tell the system to send me a link, it does, but it sends me a link for the link request page again. It does not send me a link to the actual app.
EDIT: Nevermind. I figured it out. Shouldn't browse until I had my coffee.

Is it possible that your push servers are blocked in China?
I can correctly Login with Google Account, but get an error on 'registering with push server....' (takes long and eventually times out)
Error message: "Login failed. Please check your password. If the error persists, please send a log to the developer"
here is a log... maybe it helps analyze why i can't connect with the push servers...

Ok, it's just updated, and when I go to send a test SMS, it brings up
The application GoSMS was found installed. If you do not recieve a text message, please verify that it has not disabled SMS notifications in the application's settings.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So that's cool, then I send the test. GoSMS then pops up the text, as it always does.
However, it still doesn't appear to be sending me an email.
When it says "please verify that it has not disabled SMS notifications in the application's settings", does it mean the default Messaging app?
I've tested by disabling the taskbar notification for GoSMS and re-enabling it for the default Messaging app, but even then, there is no sound nor visual cue that an SMS has arrived... is this why it's not working? Has GoSMS broken my default messaging app?

[Q] Email App - Reply-All is including me?

Hey,
Just picked up a Note 3 through work, and have it connected via ActiveSync to my work's exchange server.
I used to have a GNEX with the same configuration, so I know this problem is due to the new device.
When I receive an email, and hit Reply All, it includes me on the response - but on my GNEX, this was never the issue, it would only reply to the other people in the email thread.
Does anyone know what the deal is with this? Am I missing a setting somewhere (I honestly don't know where everything is, with this ****ty TW layout).
Any help is appreciated.

I can't find it as well. This is weird. When I hit the two arrows at the bottom (Reply to all)
It does not include me. You don't have that "Make Reply-All" checked right? If so, I would take that off.
When reading an email, at the bottom you should have multiple buttons to use.
One back arrow for reply
Two back arrows together for reply all
One forward arrow to forward emails
The trash can looking icon
and last, next and back icon to go between emails quicker.
This is whats on all my emails when opened and I have no issues at all.

OK, a factory reset solved it in both Email and Gmail.
In the Samsung Email app, if you go into Settings and pick Show More Settings, there is a "Auto CC/BCC" option. Strangely enough, this was unchecked (set to None) while this strangeness was happening.
Factory reset, then flashed the 4.4 Email and Exchange apks, then added my work account. Still experienced the same "Reply-All-Includes-Me" issue in 4.4 Email, didn't check Gmail. Added my work account to the Samsung Email app, and the problem disappeared. Deleted my account from the Samsung Email app, and now the 4.4 Email app is working properly.
Thanks for your help with this, it's greatly appreciated.
