I used to use a sense rom and I remember in the browser you could long press on text and you could drag to select and from there use translate and other features... Now using launcher pro on shadowrom 2.1 and would love that feature... Any ideas?

No ideas, because there aren't any. Sense browser requires Sense framework, which requires Sense ROM.

No ideas because their aren't any...lol I didn't ask if the sense browser could be ported I asked if their was a way to get that feature... Ie different browser, hack for stock browser, etc. pretty much anything that doesn't involve the impossible. Next

I've asked this before because I want it too. Apparently this IS impossible, and there is no way to port it without having sense entirely. I wish there was.
So your saying its impossible to have that feature because sense has already done that? Theirs no dev that could make that feature possible without sense? Well then sense is starting to have features over stock android.. how disappointing

And I know the deal with sense not being pick and choose.. But I guess what I meant is their anyone who could write an add on to the browser or even an add on to dolphin or something.. Seems like a pretty decent feature to have

The thing is, the text selection method isn't just in the browser, it's across the entire phone in the sense ports. So it's an integral part of the OS.
I don't even mind the select text in stock android.. I just wish their were other plugins for android browser so we could have translate integrated into the browser. I guess just a wish for gingerbread or the next release. Copy and paste and leaving the browser into translate isn't the worst but it is annoying

Thanks to Product F(RED), I have found my favorite texting app. GoSMS! You might have heard of it, you might have not, but so far it is 5x better than Handcent and 100x better than the Android SMS Default. Let us know if you use this app, and what you think of it here! Have a great weekend!
I love gosms. I've tried to settle for others and even for the stock messaging app but the themes are awesome. And the widget is cute also.

Very! Its alot more clean and "put-together" than handcent and many others. Have you used any other sms apps before?
I'm using it too as my sms app.
It's great and it has a lot of customization options!

I liked it, but saw no reason for me to switch from my default which is smooth, clean, good-looking and straight-forward. But, yeah definitely a lot better than the alternative ones (handcent etc...).
Yep! For the Android Texting app, its a great example of "Too Simple." We love flexibility nowadays

Hopefully we get Emjoi sometime soon! Keep us in the loop.
sounds like this app is just what i've been looking for
does it have any ads?
Could you tell us Handcent-users what Go-SMS actually does better than Handcent? I don't see a big difference.
I use GoSMS to and i like the app.
I tried some other before like handcent sms but GoSMS is my favorite.
Handcent SMS causes some big lags for me. Furthermore there were some errors in displaying some MMS. When i tried GoSMS this bugs did not appear.
Great APP but there is a problem with it. if an SMS comes in and the popup windows comes on and you are not near the phone and the screen turns off, the popup goes away (as it should) BUT so does the SMS notification and the SMS is marked as READ. this means the reminder function of the program does not work.
How do I resolve this? Im on the EVO4G

For starters; GO SMS, unlike Handcent, doesn't look like a giant pile of sh*t being rendered onto your Android screen.

i just download it yesterday, accidentally
and suddenly, i love it
I use gosms to and i especially love the drwaing feature... it's funny as hell to draw stupid bull**** and send it to your friends
So I had my bionic in my car mount and received a text message. The phone then preceded to read it to me.
I haven't seen this anywhere but is there a way to gain this functionality when walking around?

Settings text to speech and accessibility should help and handcent sms allows only text message readout on the press of a button if memory serves
I kind of wish I could disable this feature.
It kind of got me in trouble one day

I can imagine....
I went through the settings and there isn't anything there to configure when its available.
The Casio G-Zone Commando has a "read out" app that will read any unread messages when you press the app icon. I have looked for the app but can't find it. If I'm able to find a Commando ROM ans extract the apk, do you thing it would work? Hmm, I guess I know my evening.
I have never liked things like handsent or third party apps that do what I already have a core app to do. It just seems like bloat
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
I agree but they work well as a temp fix until you find the solution
I think this would be a pretty cool thing if I could get it to work.
It didn't take me long to find a commando system dump, but a couple of hours later I am no closer to finding the apk.
I would GREATLY appreciate any help. On the commando there is an app called "read out" and it has the same icon as the text messaging app. If you touch the icon it will read your unread messages to you.
I figure (total guess) that it is interfacing with the picotts.apk like the bionic does in car mode. The bionic has the picotts.apk already, so I want to try installing the read out thing to see of it works.
Does anyone know what the read out apk is named? Or if this would work?

Give me a link to what you are working with and I will take a look, but I am no dev so no promises
Also this seems to work well https://market.android.com/details?id=de.exesmobile.messagereader

I saw there were a couple of apps, what I liked about this was it's almost more of a widget. Nothing opens you touch it and it reads. The down side to an app is if I have to open an app to use it I might at well read the message myself.
I appreciate the help. I know I probably sound like an idiot

So I was able to check out a Commando and the "read out" is a 1x1 widget, not an app. The commando is the only phone I have seen this on.
Is there a chance that the pico apk is different on the commando and has that widget? If so can I install that version and have it work?
I like the widget because I don't want every message read out. I don't see the point in a seperate messaging app, because I could just open and read the message. But the widget I could find useful if I'm on Bluetooth or busy with something and don't want to stop and read. Just tap the screen and continue doing what I'm doing!

Unfortunetely commando forums are few are far between and not a lot of help.

Looks like that ROM is froyo based so I'm going to say probably not

Sucks. Any devs got some free time, and want to work on something a little unique?
So you think that's it, its a different Pico apk?

Check out VLingo in the Market. It has a setting that will read your SMS messages for you. There is even a handy widget to turn it on and off.
I like Car Dock Home v3 for full customizing and use Tasker for everything. It would be trivial to create a task that says to read an incoming text out loud based on docking status or location or time or whatever, and even automatically respond.
I know I could just google it, or read and find out, but I really wanna know from people who actually use and make it.
What is HALO? I've seen it in many roms these days and it's got something to do with bubble notifications? I haven't gotten the slightest clue
so could someone explain it to me?
Thanks for answering this noobie's question
I use it for Whatsapp, its like the facebook messenger. Floating window

Imagine Facebook's Chat Heads.
Now imagine that they appear whenever you get a notification.
Now imagine that each bubble opens the notification's app in a minimised window rather than opening the app itself.
That is Halo.

For anyone that hasn't already heard, Google just released Allo. As of this post it is not on Google play yet, but I bring a link to the apk from India, who already have it.

Fair warning: there is no [worthy] SMS integration (yet?), However, the Google assistant is pretty fun to talk to. Someone at Google is gonna get a good laugh when they read my suggestion.

hahahah awesome bro!
Another Google flop.
Why is it so....lacking?! Even reply from the notification is limited to the quick replies from allo. Google made replies from notification along with this app and Nougat, but didnt implement it correctly? This is a stripped down hangouts. Can't even use it for SMS. it just doesnt make any sense.....uninstalled in 15 minutes. Will reconsider if some minor, yet crucial tweaks are made.
With no sms integration. This isnt going to last very long. The fact that you can't have it like hangouts where it's both an sms and instant messaging is going to kill it. I hate. No loathe the fact that now I have to have yet another app for instant messaging and a separate app for sms

Another useless google attempt. I don't use any google product if there is a good alternative. This company has so much user info it's scary.
Absolutely pointless! Uninstalled
If they add a web interface, it will replace Hangouts/SMS with those close to me very quickly because of the SMS fallback. But without a way to use it on other devices, I have no use for it.
This app is completely pointless. I don't care how pretty it is.
Whenever I sit and try my best to like an app, its usually gone for me in a day. The assistant is interesting, so maybe thats worth working with, but I will stick to my messaging app. I use pushbullet on my laptop so I can send/receive sms, still works well.
I really want to like it but if it can't be set as default SMS, doesn't auto backup my SMS, has no desktop client, doesn't import all my current messaging history I can't see myself using it. From the gripes I'm seeing around comment sections I know many feel the same.
I enjoy it for what it's worth, an IM client. Most of my friends and family are using it now so getting the most of it. Admittedly though, if your circle isn't into it becomes useless. The sms integration (?) is bizarre to say the least

It can't even pass the butter...
I was ery excited about this because i thought it was gonna be on par with imessage (before iOS10) But i was extremely disappointed to see the horrible SMS integration. Sure i can probably convince 2-3 of my friends to use it But i dont want to have to remember who has it and who does not.
Correct me if im wrong but i believe that during the demo at Google IO that they said for peope who do not have it it would post your google assistant stuff via MMS so that the people who your SMSing would see it.
I like it but with iMessage iOS10 update and the lack of SMS its really dumb.
