Im having problems with Google Talk on my phone.
Normally, if u start a chat. and the other person is talking back, u should see the txt under your own txt. But i only see it as a balloon in my top-tray of the phone and do not see the txt written by the other person in the chat overview.
Anyone knows how to solve this?

My gf and I also have Galaxy S phones. Her device is running on I9000XXJFB firmware, mine is on I9000XWJM2. Shes having kinda like the same problem with GTalk: the screen is splitted to 2 sides (top&bottom), instead of how mine works (the good old conversation-look, when A-B-A-B persons messages follow each other).
Maybe its firmware-dependent? I did not find any option to change the layout in the settings menu.
Firmware is probably a good bet. If you want to hold off, have you tested to see what happens if you turn the setting balloon top-tray setting off? Would you see nothing at all? Or would it populate the message how it should.
You probably want the best of both worlds, it's worth a quick test if you have any reason to delay upgrading firmware.
disabling the notification button in the toptray would be a bummer anyway because then i wouldnt be notified if somebody is messaging me.
i downloaded a beta version of Hi GTalk from the market. which is working as it should work so i guess my problem isnt solved with Talk it self, but with installing an alternative app.
i think you'd still receive the sound notification. As long as you are going an alternative app route, i'd. consider uninstalling and reinstalling GTalk, it might just be corrupted.
good point. i will uninstall it and reinstall.
[edit] hehe i cant uninstall it. its "in the factoryrom" so i see. i dont see it at the installed programs list..?
gtalk still problem
Hi, I have the same problem with gtalk, also after upgrade to Froyo any ideas ?
solution
Solution:
Change time zone to the right location unbelievable, but it works !!! layout is dependent on internal time zone.
Good luck
On my Captivate when I recieve a message it's never in order.
For example, I send a test text to a friend at 7:41. When he sends it back one minute later the text ends up behind mine (not in order) and the time recieved says 2:41am.
Is there something wrong that I'm missing? How can I fix this?

Wow. I tried the app mentioned in the topic and it totally ruined the order of my texts...
Yeah, that did not work at all. Messed things up even more.
Any other ideas?
Use Handcent, it's free, totally customizable and works.

don't use auto time/date update
if you use the stock messaging app, try using handcent or chomp and see if it still does it.
Coming over from HandCent (massive battery drain), and only one complaint.
With HandCent, it would unlock my screen even though I had a pattern lock enabled. But with Go SMS Pro, it just turns on the screen and makes the unlock noise, but it does not actually unlock the screen, but rather just show the pattern lock screen.
Help please?!?!

GOSMS wont let you bypass the lockscreen if you dont wanna hear the unlocking sound go to settings/sound/scroll down and uncheck Screen lock sounds everything else can be changed in GOSMS settings like if the screen turns on when u have a meesage and all that but ive used GOSMS for about 10 months to my knowledge it doesnt have that bypass feature

I will, I will. I'm on my phone right now.
Well it did a pop-up, showed the quick text box, and if you started to type, it would let you and then lock your phone back up after.
And if you didn't want to text back, it locked back up in 10 seconds (or whatever you set it to).
You can't exit out of the quick text box without the phone locking back up... really nice actually

I havent tested that but it prob will
I use GO SMS PRO myself....I hated Handcent.....only reason I don't use the stock samsung one is because my wife has an iphone and she likes to text the smilies LOL
GO does that for me....and thats the only reason I use it
I have pop up notifications on lock screen disabled.
happy now pwnerman?
More help please.... why does it send MMS messages as links? How do I change this to the regular way?
Sent from my Cappy; using my fingers to push some buttons.
This is prob because your using GOMMS.
#5 in the GOMMS TIPS Clearly states "To send regular MMS use the Attachments tab
MORE THANKS PLZ =]

I've recently switched to this app as well. must faster and lighter than handcent- but I'm having one issue.
I have it set to unlock the phone when a message comes in. If I receive a popup notification for a message and immediately take my phone out of my pocket, sometimes the screen orientation will change and this will dismiss the popup. the message disappears from my notification tray and everything. has anyone else experienced this?

I apologize if this is a duplicate, I did the search and couldn't find anything. Has anyone tried the gif feature. I have 2 issues with it.
1) whenever I create a gif, the auto focus is in the gif (yellow circle). Anyone know how to get rid of that? It doesn't stay long, but just enough to be annoying.
2) Sharing- no matter how long the gif, it's too large for sms. I tried standard quality and I believe it gave me the same message. And it looks terrible in standard. I had to actually upload it to Google Drive and send a link.
I would appreciate any feedback.

1) are you sure that ring isn't for face detection
2) Try making a gif in standard quality and keeping it under 1mb in size. Send it to yourself to see if it goes through, I believe gif are sent as mms
Sharing GIFs on Instagram and Facebook/Coming out as a pic???
Hello,
I just recently purchase my Note 7 and it is great! However, my issue with the GIF is sharing ANYWHERE. I have tried to share on Instagram and Facebook and the GIF comes out as a picture only. Can someone tell me why please?
I'm not sure why this happens but when I create a gif and attempt to send it right away it always sends as a single shot image. If I wait an hour or so before sending, it sends as a gif. Go figure.

Uggggg.......thank you for the reply
Ok so both me and girlfriend have the note 9 on sprint, when she gets a text she gets the pop up preview and also a chat head. How do you find that option to turn it on. I've checked both settings and are identical but I can't get the chat heads on the messages but hers do. Can someone help me find that feature.?

Hi, enable edge lighting for the messaging app. When new message arrived, try to pull down the notification. Then it will open the messaging app in a pop-up window, after that you may minimize the window into chat head.
This?

Nevermind. Took a closer look at the icon, it's definitely Samsung Messages. Must be the multi-window thing...
