[Q] Integrating Google Voice and MMS app? - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

I managed to get Google voice to work with the MMS app with the app GV integration, but it's really hit and miss. Sometimes it works but sometimes it doesn't, and it slows the device down. Is there a better way to combine GV and the MMS app? I have tried every texting app but none are as fast and simple as the stock MMS app. Any suggestions?

I'm also trying to get this figured out. I used the GV Integration app as well, however it doesn't work in Android 4.2.2, so it isn't an option anymore. Right now, I'm using Messaging + Google Voice, which is very similar to the stock app, however, it doesn't have that nice pop-up box like the stock one.

Well its working for me but I get no notifications in the stock sms app. I think it might be because the app is not in the actual /system/app folder. I would find out by moving it but I don't know where jackpot has the system apps installed to.

Well I found the parent app for sms and tried moving to system/app but I didn't know that everyone had this problem with 4.2.2. Right now I still use GV integration but since SMS gives no notifications, I just enable gv notifications to at least know I got a text and reply with the SMS app.
I have used that app before but the notifications and buttons in the app are horrible looking to me so I prefer not to use it.

Message count in SMS/MMS app

Does anyone know how to get the number of messages to show next to the contact's name in the stock SMS/MMS app? Thanks in advance.

I do not see an option for it, which leads me to believe that you will have to use a 3rd party SMS app if you want that feature.
Hey! try usin go sms or handcent sms from the market!

I would defiantly give handcent a go its got some pretty good extras also like multicoloured notification LED light depending on event and also you can show a SMS when the screen is locked for quick reply.
Well that's the thing, I meant without a third-party app, like it is on stock Android. I've had Go SMS, but I prefer to have notification icons that actually match with the app, I guess.

(App request) SMS

Is there an SMS app here or on the market that I'm able to do the following.
is there a way to block / hide a specific person from texting u on the stock message app or on the market, like let's say I received a text from someone and than I don't want it to be shown on my stock app but on another sms app that i can only view with a password or etc..I only need one person not to be shown at all but all other text could come on the stock message app...the reason I ask its because I have a work phone n its suppost to be work only but sometimes I use it for personal reasons and than my boss gets in a habit of checking our phones that we are only using the phone work related.
Thanks

I think Call Master, which is in beta, does that.
Shady SMS is what I use. I absolutely love it. Hides their MMS as well.

Private SMS MMS box works too...it doesn't show up in your app drawer and you can set a custom notification icon and / or text notification... You use your dialer to enter your password...

Not nativly no. SMS/MMS does not work over wifi, regardless of the source phones type...( iMessage will do this yes, but iMessage is not using SMS/MMS even though they do it from the same app. it's handleted totally diffrent, and it's only iphone to iphone, there is no option to get an imessage on an android, it's apple gear only).
I froze the legacy sms app with BT.
Then loaded gosms. No pictures would pass thru. Even after making adjustments in advanced.

I've always been scared to delete stock messaging app
Any phone speed, ram, or other benefit obtained from this?
I normally just leave it alone, and disable notifications.
You can even hide the app in the app drawer if you're using Go Launcher, other launchers may have this ability as well.

[Q] Google voice notification for text/voicemail

Is there a way do assign a different notification for text vs voicemail in the Google voice app?
Set it to receive your texts through the messaging app. That way you can choose your ringtone for texts through your regular messaging app and still get voicemail through the Voice app with a separate ringtone.

OK, I guess my situation is unique because I am having issues with my text notifications through Handcent or the stock messaging app. That's why I went with Voice for all texts. I can live with one messaging sound if this is the only option.
Thanks

You might wanna check your Voice settings on a computer browser to make sure its set to send you texts through Sprint. You may have a setting on there that's affecting it. I do quite a bit of texting on my phone without issue with Google Voice

Looks like there was a setting on the browser version. Hopefully that fixes the issues....

Visual voicemail....

I'm now to the android scene,andsoup. so far I think it's pretty cool. But one disturbing thing about the optimus is the way it handles voicemail. The is no visual voicemail integrated into the dialer, using a separate app sucks- especially when it's an att app that doesn't seem to load.
Does anyone know if there is a fix for that?

It's not built into the dialer, but Google Voice is a solution that loads and works well. It also tries to transcribe and emails those transcriptions to you
Google Voice also has an option to display your voicemails in the call log screen.

I'm using the ATT app and it works flawlessly.

I've been using PF Voicemail + on my old GS2 with good success and over the few days I've had my OG it has worked just as well. It also transfered my old messages and missed call log when I made the switch as a bonus. Not sure if that was the app, or the result of TiBu. Either way, no issues I can see so far on the OG.
