[Q] Android stock sms apk - group sms - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
im using cm10.1 at huawei g300 and im missing some feature in stock sms app - maybe it's strange, but i really like it, it's simple and has almost all features which i need. Almost. I have problem with sending sms to a group, i have to write concacts separately, and there is no other way to do this. Below is screen from other (also stock?) sms apk (the dark one) and there is a "people" button, after click u can choose from your contacts more than one person.
In my phone it look's like at attached screenshoot - im missing button in place which is marked with red almost-circle. So is it possible to get that "people" button? Something in settings or maybe modded app? I couldn't find anything. And the reason why i don't have that button atm - it's because of CM rom or just google has removed it or...?
Thanks in advance for answers ("Install Go-sms/chomp/handcent." is not the answer - i know that way:>)
Sorry for my english
And sorry, if wrong section.

SMS Theme

wiredly I am unable to change SMS Theme ..Any one know why?
EDIT: Came to know after update there was no SMS theme for any one.Why? and what theme you have now for SMS? Mine is Grey background and Yellow,Blue bubbles
There is NO sms themes anymore in 2.3.4 afaik. So you have to put back 2.3.3 I guess, lol.
Everyone has this, as all have been removed by Samsung. You could always install a different SMS app, but that's probably not what you're here for .

I know that Go SMS has an Inbox-Outbox feature. You use the settings menu to make that your standard view. Or when you have installed the app and you see the different contact-threads, slide your thumb sideways, you'll see the old Inbox/Outbox.

As to be on-topc, I have seriously no idea why Samsung removed the themes. Maybe they're up to something, but I seriously doubt that. We may see them back in the future but I seriously doubt that.

[Q] Whatsapp messages on lockscreen

Hi all,
is it possible to display new whatsapp messages directly on lockscreen? (like on ios? Display lights up if new message comes in and i can read message directly on lockscreen, thats what I want.
Bought some apps but nothing works fine :-(
Sorry for my poor Englisch...
For directly showing message on lock screen it depends on the ROM I think.
Is there any rom for my desire hd available?
I am using virtous quattro with ics at the moment.
You need to post this there.. I don't have desire. So, can't say.
I think widget locker is what you need. I use handcent for sms, and it gets through the lockscreen just like you describe.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
The lockscreen code is either part of the framework.jar or the systemui... and if the device is not rooted, you cannot change it.
If you are a programmer, what you could try is to create a new window (for example with the WindowManagerImpl hidden class) trying different window types: window types define the layer where the window will be placed. For some window types you might need some special permission (for example I think TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY will be placed above lockscreen, and it needs the SYSTEM_DIALOG permission)
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Currently there isn't an (lockscreen-)app that allows that. If you are a programmer you can always try to make it yourself, like mentioned above. But be warned, it's going to be a hell to create it
I´m not a Android programme
There is an option in the settings of whatsapp "turn on the pop up messages" check that box n u are good to go
i know this option, but it´s still behind the lockscreen...
Hey guys!!
This pop-up message, allows you to answer the message even with the lock screen. I think it's a lack of security because anyone can answer it if you forget your phone somewhere.
I've already try to talk with the developers of Whatsapp, but with no success.
On iphone you can only read and unlock to answer.
That's right, the popup feature when set to 'always' or 'only when screen off' shows messages and I think even allows replying from the lockscreen. You can't go view the full convo without unlocking though. This is the way it works at least in the latest beta from http://www.whatsapp.com/android/

Remove Samsung apps from ICS

Hi, I believe I read that with ICS, Google made it possible to remove carrier and phone producer apps. I have been through the settings but can't seem to find where to do so. Can someone help me?
Also, how do you remove eg. the contacts or messages icon? Before the update it was no problem to replace the custom SMS icon with another app, but it seems impossible now.

go to PLAYMARKET and get ICONCHANGER (RootUser) and you can download icons from the APPandTHEMES or you can create them on pgn format ! its so f. easy
I think you misunderstand, I want to replace the stock SMS app shortcut with a shortcut to the Go SMS app. But thanks anyway
-------------
Edit: I found out, I remembered it incorrectly and it's just going to apps, edit -> drag icon down to the touchwiz bar.

[Q] nottachtrix 1.2.9b contact specific ringtones?

I can't find the option for specific contact ringtones on this ROM, it is based off of 2.3.6 can anyone help me out?
NVM, I feel dumb lol I got it, mods can close it. Just have to look at the contact, press menu, option, and then you can choose ringtone. Embarrassing

EDIT: Nevermind
Don't remember how to through the stock contact off hand. However, with TouchPal Contacts the Ringtone is listed on the main page of each contact

[Q] Multi DPI stock dialer (gt-i9100)

I will like first than any other thing to apologize if you are reading this and you thought finaly a multi DPI stock dialer aviable, sorry i dont have it. I needed a title to guet some readers to see it. Second for my really bad speling.
This post has been created whit one goal:
¡¡¡¡¡MULTI DPI STOCK SAMSUNG DIALER!!!!!
I have scouted xda forums for weeks to guet one, but this mod just... DOES NOT EXIST.
I have seen this request on replies, new threats, but no one single developer has responded to this call.
If YOU reader support this threat, i will sent a pm to your inbox once i guet one.
Now I will place here what WE are asking for:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
Yes we know there is an stock ics dialer and contacts, some android market apps whit multi dpi aviable free or paid, but we dont want that.
Well that is the reason of this post, but I have seen what people belive, is the PERFECT dialer:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
2. AutoRotate disiable
3. Full screem picture
4. ICS compatible
5. Record call aviable
And going a little bit more... demanding. If a developer decides to guet on this heroe path, on the SAMSUNG STOCK contacts app, the ability to unite more than five accounts to one contact.
Hopefully a great xda dev will become the heroe and provide the apk that many are looking.
