Has anybody tried this app? It is supposed to be a free app.

Works very well and integrates SMS, MMS and Voicemail into one app - it's sort of a "super" visual voicemail" - plays back voicemails nicely. I prefer it to VVM

Lol voicemail. What an ancient concept.
TextSecure for SMS and mms. Encrypts your texts locally and if the receiver is using textsecure as well then the text can be encrypted from end to end.
I won't go into detail about why I need this but there it is. Use it

It may be ancient but I at least wanna know what the message was that was left. VVM isn't even close most of the time.

I installed this app and it looks nice. I did find out though that after doing this, I could no longer send messages using the stock app nor using handcent. But I may stick with this app.
Update: Well I uninstalled this app and I still can't get my stock app or handcent to send a text message. Any ideas how to fix this? Getting to just do a nandroid restore.

Anyone using Lookout Security and Antivirus???

I installed Lookout security on my phone to find it if I lose it. I have never had a problem with it. I am now running the latest MIUI 10.1.28 and reinstalled Lookout. The built in firewall keeps informing me that Lookout is trying to send SMS. This seems a bit fishy to me.
Nope......
I have it with CM7. No problems with it and nothing at all like what you mentioned.

I'm on MIUI Nexus Prime 360 v1.3 with Lookout. I had an experience similar to yours, I uninstalled it and downloaded a fresh version from the market. Since, that time I only use the MIUI Backup to restore it.
Why would Lookout keep trying to send an SMS message? Is it trying to ask for an update? OR, is it sending them my call patterns, usage, or personal information?
Although I to am confused as to why Lookout looks my texts my texts, (which us why that popup only happens when you receive a text) I have found that if you open the superuser app and click on Lookout >SMS > Allow... you will no longer get that popup.

That's because you don't see the sms messages being sent back to Lookout. Either they are database update requests or your messages are being sent to them? Just don't know.

[APP] Textie. Text from any android device you have

I can now text from my Touchpad, and the messages sync to anything else running Textie. I can respond to texts from my phone or Touchpad using Textie. Best thing is its completely free. Only requires your name and email(both used in outgoing messages.)

Two words: Google Voice.
One word, textab. Quit being a jerk lol...
Thanks for another option man

I'm loving tablet talk. Syncs using Bluetooth. Or it can use wifi. I love it.
I hate apps with their own UI. I want a app that will background sync my messages and pull them into the stock messaging app.

SyncSMS also, uses dropbox to sync your messages between phone and tablets.

Nothing like Google Voice. Sucks that you don't get a threaded view like other SMS apps. It sorts the messages by days. But wouldn't trade it for any other app. Nay sayers should give it a shot.

[Q] Visual Voicemail app?

Did some googling, searching on AT&T site -says visual voicemail is supposed to be included when purchasing smartphone data plan. Still can't figure out why AT&T Note doesn't have it or how to get it.
Its the AT&T messages app.

Don't have anything called "AT&T messages" or "messages" in my phone's app list. "Messaging" app is just for texting.
Anyways, I found this bad boy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452330 and it works like a charm. Good looking interface too.

Actually there is both an "email" and "gmail" download available from the system dump of a nexus 5 (not a Samsung device). I was clarifying that he was referring to email and not gmail

Yes and the one I was talking about is the google mail application. Not Gmail and not the Samsung one
I've seen a few reports of people in the Note 3 section having problems with video chat in Hangouts with the new apk besides having mms issues. I haven't had the chance to test the video chat on it to confirm.

MMS does not work for sure. I don't know if it is even an option to begin with on this tablet (being WiFi only) but it dies not work on my S4. I haven't tried video chat on either

I'm sorry for the confusion with what i said in my post...I wasn't stating that there is an MMS option when in installed on the 10.1. I was just merely stating that there are a few issues with the app in general right now.

No I understood you were taking about MMS with the Note 3.
However, i personally installed to see if the MMS option existed on the note 10.1 and if it did, would it work over WiFi. It isn't even an option.

Use Mighty text and send texts, it will reroute them so it comes from your phone.

This is my current setup as well for sending texts from my pc, but I use mysms. It's always just been a little more reliable for me. Does anybody know if the new hangouts, which does sms on android now, supports/will support this functionality? I installed the new apk on my phone and received my sms through it. But I didn't see any text messages in gmail. I don't have an android tablet (yet) to test the hangouts app there.
For now I have disabled SMS in hangouts again, as it was extremely laggy (especially in a conversation with over 10000 messages. the stock sms app handles that better). I felt mysms was less reliable too.

I was hoping for the same thing. I was hoping that sms and mms would sync with hangouts so that I didn't have to create backups and such.

Texting on the tab

I know I've seen it before but I can't remember where, but I am looking for an app that can send and receive text messages via Bluetooth or WiFi I don't really want to use Google voice due to the voicemail portion always sucking. The ones I've found on the play store always seem to have tons of bad reviews. Thanks.

I use MightyText and it works really well. I can send and receive text and picture messages immediately. Some other ones I tried take really long before I can send a message, but this one is quick!
Mighty text is great

AT&T had an app called AT&T messages for the tablet. It allows you to access all your messages and when you send a text it shows up as coming from your phone.

Never used mighty text, but tablet talk has worked great for me in the past.

I just set this up using DeskSMS / TabletSMS. The text messages send via my phone (and are also visible on my PC via a Chrome plug-in). I am very happy with it.
Of course it requires the phone to have an active data connection as well as the tablet, so that might not be what you are looking for.
Is there way to use tablet talk without the headset? Talk through the tablets microphone and hear through the speakers?
