Hello,
I send a lot of text messages to nearly 200 contacts on a semi regular basis. I have an excellent app that does it well. The only issue is I constantly get permission messages saying I'm sending too many and if I wanna authorize more, its very annoying and if I don't accept it as soon as it comes up, will usually delay my messages.
So my question is, how do I remove/change that SMS limit on Android 5.0? IRS definitely baked into the OS cause as I said, any SMS app gets the same issue.
All help and thoughts appreciated!
- Master Ramy
PS: I tried a couple SMS limit apps on the Play Store, nothing updated for lollipop yet.
Bump, anyone able to help me? Any devs want to weigh in?

Yes it does.
To op. It's a custom rom feature.

Sure, but I also understand its an adjustment somewhere in a system database file to change the limit, I found instructions for a Galaxy S3 phone, but its not in the same place. I was hoping one of the devs of said Roms could point me to the right file so I can adjust it manually on stock.
Anyone else?

Thanks, but yeah I tried that one, negative....it can't be this hard!! Anyone know where it would be located? Build.prop? Settings.db? ?!?
I think this app works : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mittelmanapps.smslimitunlock
Just intalled it and proceded to a full unlock. Requires root.
Device said the operation is a complete success and needed a reboot to apply all modifications which I just did.
If I don't have the limit, I will come back to confirm this app works.
Hope it works !!!

My phone is rooted and I'm on Dirty Unicorns 5.02. I'm not sure what system you're on but I've sent out 150 messages without an issue using Group SMS Pro. It will ask me to Wait or Kill the app while sending bulk sms, but I hit Wait and everything goes through. Also, I don't send much more than 200 messages at a time because even on KitKat that seemed to be an issue.
So? Did it work?

So? Did it work? I think not, but your promised update would be appreciated.
I to would like to figure out how to work around this limit. I am on Benzo rom 5.1 and under settings/security you can select 30, 50, 100 or 200 but it's a dead setting apparently because I can select 50, 100 or 200 and I still have to approve any text over 30. Did you figure out how to fix it? I tried the linked google play apps to get around but no luck so far
Flash a custom rom - like what was posted in post #2.
Other than that, you're probably out of luck, OP. Just do what anyone else here would do if they *just have to have that ability* - flash the rom.
Thanks for the reply but I will NOT flash LS because everytime I have tried it it borks my phone and I've been dumb enough to try it "one more time" too many times and paid the price. I know it's probably something I'm doing and not the roms fault but done with that one..........:cyclops:
I went back and looked at the app posted above called SMS Limit Unlock and played around a bit more. I changed the Restriction cycle time and Restriction message amount settings a few times when I was in there before but never clicked on 'Unlock'. I did that this time and it went thru a progression and then said I needed to reboot for settings to take hold. I sorta forgot that step before thinking the Unlock was to convert to the paid version of the app. I rebooted just in time to give it a try and it worked exactly as it should so I got it to work correctly.
Figured I'd post this in the thread so in case someone else does a google search on SMS limit problems and they get directed to this thread as I did, hopefully this will work for them as well. I am on Benzo 5.1 and it worked...... Yippeeeee

1. Root Phone
2. Download/Install a Different SMS(texting) app from the Google Store
I chose to use the 'Go SMS PRO app
3. Download a Root Uninstaller
I used 'Root Uninstaller Free'
4. Uninstall the stock SMS app, it's called 'Text Messaging' I believe. Can't quite remember
5. Profit!!! Just remember to check the setting in your new SMS app for any limit. In Go SMS PRO you can turn off any limit or have it save upto 100+ texts and then start deleting old ones.
I'm not really sure if uninstalling the stock app can actually cause problems, but a few people told me it Could.
It obviously worked fine on Android 5.0 :laugh:

Yes, SMS Limit Unlock did work. Right above your post I said that I sent out about 200 messages with no issues. Some ROMs like BeanStalk, by the way, have SMS limit settings.

Hey Guys, you all must be knowing that Whatsapp is testing call feature as reported by a reddit user.
[UPDATE 1] I am aware of a similar thread but it does not address the problem of no contacts.
I followed the thread and discovered that the thread started was the only one to have that feature working properly. It is believed that whomever he calls, gets the same feature too but the opposite person needs to have Lollipop as well as the latest(2.11.508) apk too from the website of whatsapp. Other user reported that using terminator and root access, one can get the calling tab enabled but the issue is no one can see other contacts and my bet is that none of the contacts would have the latest apk as well as lollipop loaded up. So, I've got an idea through which we can enable the feature and help others get the feature too. Try to follow the given steps.
Whats Needed?
-Rooted Lollipop(Stock or Custom ROM would do)
-Latest apk from here
-Terminal from Playstore
-PM me to get my contact number and add me to your contacts(To test out the feature)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Steps to follow(Make sure you follow them in order and correctly):
1) Make a Backup of your current chats if you want your chats to be maintained.
2)Uninstall your current version of Whatsapp (Necessary Step, do not try to update through intsalling the latest apk over current version)
3)Install the latest apk you downloaded.
4)Verify your number, restore your chats if you want and start whatsapp.
5)Close Whatsapp and remove it from recents too.
6)Start Terminal and type the following commands without double quotes:
"su" - At this point, it would ask for root permission. Allow it.
"am start -n com.whatsapp/com.whatsapp.HomeActivity" - This would start Whatsapp with 3 tabs namely Calls, Chats and Contacts.
7)Head on to contacts tab and message me from there. I would also add you to my contacts and see if I could call you or not and if it works, we all would get the feature permanently! :highfive:
[UPDATE 2]It has been confirmed that this method does not work for now but at least keep your contacts list updated with someone having lollipop and following the same procedure so that you may come to know when you are also eligible to test out the feature.
Credit goes to pradnesh07 and Tropiux from Reddit.
Unfortunately all this does is show you the tabs. No contacts will show up as you haven't got the feature enabled still. Someone with it needs to call you I believe
I enabled it but no contacts are showing up to call...how to call anyone ?

You have not read the instructions and stuff need properly. Have you?
You need lollipop update first. Then you need someone in your contacts who has enabled these tabs with terminal.
I'm already running lollipop... Did u have enabled the call feature ?

It won't. I had the same idea to make others get the 3 tabs too and see if I could see those people in my contacts but it doesn't work.

I have a Droid Maxx with 4.4.4 but don't think this issue is hardware or OS related, as it worked fine up until about 7-10 days ago. No OS updates.
So I have a few work-related Google accounts on my phone that are tied to a few different Google Voice numbers. When a voicemail is left on one of the numbers, I get a transcript and audio link email sent to that account's GMail. I can open the message and see the transcript and have the 'Play message' link. But when I open the Play message link, it opens Chrome and then asks me to Choose an action. My only options are Camera, Camcorder, Sound Recorder and Documents. I can't choose the stock audio player, nor any 3rd party MP3 player apps that I've downloaded trying to solve this problem.
When I used to do this it would either download the message where I could open it from the status bar at the top, or it would download and automatically play the MP3-format voicemail in the stock audio player. If I go to the app launcher and go to Downloads and pick an older voicemail and tap on it, it immediately starts to play with the stock app. So that tells me that the stock app is still installed and still plays audio files.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
I don't mean to bump my own thread, but any ideas? I can provide any technical information you'd like.
Thank you
Well, you're in the Droid Turbo subform. I was just about to tell you to go check out the Droid Maxx subform just to realize there isn't one?! How did that happen?
In any case, it almost seems like you aren't being linked to download a file; it sounds like you're being asked to UPLOAD a file, which is weird. Can you download the file on your PC by following the link in the email?

Hi Ekkoria, thanks for replying, and yes I figured this forum would be the "closest" to the Maxx since there isn't a dedicated section.
When I open the link on a PC, it opens a new tab that embeds the audio and plays the voicemail, so it doesn't appear to me that Google Voice has changed anything with the way the process and send out their audio in emails.
Here is a screenshot of what I get when I click on the "Play Message" link and then Chrome opens: (i dot imgur dot com/Ke6hLDL dot png)
I hate factory resets and hope there is a simple solution.
Thanks

The link is to an mp3 file then? Hm. I'm not entirely sure what to tell you, I don't really think a factory reset would help. Have you tried another browser by any chance?
The Droid Maxx shares a forum with the Droid Ultra. It is pretty much the same phone...maybe they can help you.

Well, the issue is fixed though I can't give an exact reason, other than the most recent OTA update seemed to fix it. So, if you experience this issue, I guess make sure your software is up to date.
No root needed!

Hi
The software works as advertised. Thanks for the excellent software. However, this is my wishlist:
In Whatsapp and Telegram notifications, the profile picture of the person who sent the message doesn't not appear on the watch if i use Quick for Wear. However, the picture appears if i disable Quick and use the standard Whatsapp
There is no emoji keyboard or no way to use at the same time Quick reply and draw an emoji feature of Google wear
This is limitation for Android Wear. If someones send a picture in Whatsapp, I only get a notification but i cannot see the image on the watch. I don't know if someone could write an app or if you can add this to Quick
Also a limitation of Android Wear (and not related to Quick), you can only reply to messages and not create a new message. I hope Google can implement this later
Again, Thank you for this app. Being able to reply to messages on the watch is great )

Let me answer you point to point:
This is normal. We have picture mirroring planned but not implemented yet.
You can actually access an emoji list long pressing the lightning icon
This could be done, but I'm not sure it would be a good idea to bring it in Quick. I'll investigate
This can be done only with root and xposed at the moment

Thanks for answers. I didn't know about the emoji, very handy I will be waiting for the picture mirroring
Too bad i cannot root my S6 without tripping Knox so xposed is out of the question at the moment. Sending a SMS or hangout is not as popular as Whatsapp here

Do you have planned to add the number 4? It would be very cool if I can send messages without waiting for somebody to message me and Instead just open an app in my watch and send it directly.
Enable issue
Just bought the app recently but can't seem to enable the notification/app. Currently using the Huawei p8w 5.0.1 with a moto 360 v1.
After selecting the app for notifications, it still shows up as "Disabled"
Tried changing the notification settings but still not working, app isnt showing up on my watch either.
Anyone with the same issue?

try restarting your phone. the state you see there is directly changed by the operating system, so if it's not changing, it's because the phone is not giving permissions to access notifications to the app.

Not really, Quick was projected as a no-root solution. Wear Messenger has an xposed module and antiviruses keep throwing false alarms on it. (and the 360 security support is not doing anything). I don't want the same plague to kill Quick.

Yes, please keep it as a non-root solution. Or in case you ever implemented it, maybe use a two programs solution: one normal and one root
Thx
Hey ! I own the Moto 360 2nd and "Quick for Wear".
Problem: I enabled the keyboard but if i get a whatsapp message i cant repley with keyboard
WHY? pls help me.
Hi
Sometimes, the toggle for Quick for Wear is set by itself to disable, However, the toggle is still on in the notification access settings. I have to re-enable it to start receving notifications on the watch.
It is totally random

About point 3, I don't know if it's possible but it would be awesome if you can add it. Maybe a good way to open the image and not make the conversation difficult to read is, when someone send an image you will see in the chat: Image, and when you tap on it you see the image.
I don't know how difficult it would be, I really like your work with that app, as bought it some days ago and I'm so happy with it but if you can add it the app will be just perfect.
