Replying with SMS - LG G Watch

Am I right in thinking that I can only reply on the watch whilst using Hangouts? If I change my SMS app on my phone to Handcent, I get the notification but no option to reply!
Will I have to wait for the app to be updated?

Yes

I thought as much, thanks.
I have just found the EvolveSMS has just updated to support Android Wear - not as good as Handcent (IMHO) but better than Hangouts.

[Q] Google Voice - SMS Popup/Quick Reply?

Has anyone figured out a way to get quick reply or quick compose functionality with Google Voice? SMS Popup has this feature, but doesn't support GV SMS...
Or, is there a way to reply directly from the Android notification tray?
I have been endlessly searching for a solution, and I realized that you guys might know how to achieve this.
Thanks.
Anyone know a way to do this?
Maybe using an app like GO SMS?
Is it possible to do this at all?
When I emailed ChompSms they said it was on their to do list but no ETA.

I dont see that coming. As was mentioned before GO SMS has that if you were using it for your primary number. I personally don't see any dev jumping on that for GV anytime soon since I see more people using GV as their "tiger woods" number these days lol. I was happy finally after the bugs were fixed and there actually was an indication in the notification shelf that I had a GV text.
I feel like there's gotta be a way to do this with Tasker - I'm still searching around, but if anyone has any ideas...

Yeah, I was hoping for something like this that would allow GV functionality....
Would this help?

Not really, but man, is that thread a gold mine
The good news is, I got a tasker popup working for sms.. but I'm sure there's a much better way to do it. I'll post here as soon as I figure out.

That's good news. Does the popup include quick reply functionality?
If so, is the quick reply functionality available in the lockscreen?
Nah, no quick reply, and honestly, would have no idea how to do that. This basically pulls the text from the notification bar and displays it in a pop up- kinda ghetto style
But maybe there's a way to make it so, when u click on the popup, it jumps to the message in the app... I'll try that.
If someone made an app to do this using purely google voice and not traditional sms, I would pay at least $5 without a second thought. When I had an iphone, there was a jailbroken app that would let me hold a volume button and then show a quick compose pop up for regular sms.

Yeah, a GV app with quick reply would be really awesome.
I have seen the iPhone app you're referring to, and that's pretty much exactly what I think would be perfect...
just a little 3 months later bump (!) .. can't believe this is still an issue
I'll give it a bump too - would love GV popups.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Mayne if someone can take the coding from text plus because the text plus app has quick reply so maybe someome can integreate it into google voice app or make another app using it just a suggestion really want the quick rply because i use GV as my primary textong cuz i dont have and dont want texting through carrier
Does text plus work for gv notifications, even without quick reply?
. . NS4G . . CM7 . .
bump...and a callback feature would be epic
lol. I wish this wasn't still an issue. Any updates?
hey guys... hold on to your socks. I found an app that allows for Google Voice SMS popup notifications:

SMS Popup

Hello everyone,
Is there any way to see the popup before unlocking but without the screen going on? In other words, I do not want the lockscreen to be on after I send my SMS reply. Just a black screen. I have tried Go SMS and Handscent.
Thanks

What? You mean like the notifications going on the lock screen without lighting up the screen?

What I mean is, after my popup comes up and I send my reply, the lockscreen is there. Is there a way not to light up the lockscreen?
I believe chomp sms has something close to this with some configuration.

I use the stock sms with an app called SMS Popup. It works awesome. It's very customizable. Give it a shot, I think you'll like it.

But the thing with SMS popup is that it gives you multiple popups of the same message
If anyone is still looking for a reliable popup app...try Glowfly. I know its a weird name but trust me its a good app. So far...no multiple popups and better than SMS popup

Sms app w/ Quick Compose

Looking for a sms app that can allow to Quick Compose a text from any screen. Handcent has the feature, but doesn't work with ICS Phones since the search button is gone. Any suggestions?? I REALLY REALLY miss this feature

Launches the sms app. Not quick compose.
Quick compose should launch a box in any app that allows to create the message and send it. Handcent did it flawlessly.

in 1Tap Quick bar, there's an option to add a CREATE NEW SMS, which you could find in ITEMS/OTHER. the icon is a white envelope. This icon launches the default sms app you are currently using, and directly goes to IT"S create new sms message window. but i guess that's still not what you want.

Thanks for the help. I sorta found a solution with ChompSMS. There's an option for quick compose that leaves a box in your notification tray to quick compose a message. I just hate having stock, Handcent, and ChompSMS sms apps in my phone.
Not perfect but it will do for now.

Pop up SMS w/ reply

Is GoSms the only sms app that has pop up with reply feature? None other I've found has this feature. I love apex too much to switch to Go Launcher.
Popup SMS is nice, but it doesn't have a reply feature on the pop up window, worse part is, it doesn't even have a button to go to the message. Only button to go to inbox and then having to click on the message.

[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....
