HTC EVO 4G :: Default SMS Application - Most Recent Message
Jun 8, 2010
I've been using the default SMS program since I'm OK with it and don't really need the fancier customizable stuff of Handcent and such. However one thing that does bother me about the SMS program is that when I hit "Messages" it brings me back to the conversation of the last person I was texting with/I sent text to, not the SMS that just came in.
For ex: I've been texting Person A back and forth. Then I get a text from Person B- I see it in the notification bar preview. So I press Messages, but it doesn't take me to Person B's message- it takes me back to the thread from Person A. I can't even figure out How to get to the Person B message except to go to "Menu" key, then hit All Messages, then it shows all the threads and of course the most recent (person B) is up at top. But wouldn't it make sense that pressing Messages after receiving a message takes you to the most recent incoming message? Am I doing something wrong/have some options checked off wrong? Is there a way around this default behavior?

When I scroll up in an SMS to look at previous messages in the conversation the phone snaps it back to the most recent message. Even if I hold without releasing it still snaps back, wtf? Am I not allowed to read my old messages?

Can you make "recent calls" tab the default screen rather than the dial pad tab?
For me, chances are that I'd call someone that I've recently called or talked to.
I rarely use the dial pad anyway. I don't use the dial pad tab as often as the contacts tab.

I guess that Android won't let people to do this, because they think they have perfect handle for the task/applications. However, I really need to do this in my case.
I have an activity A acting as the entry point of my application. In that activity, it reads the preference and decided which activity to start, say B or C. After that, it finishes itself. So, activity A never appears to the users.
My application stores things on sdcard, and reads from it constantly. So, when the sdcard is unmounted, I need to display a message to the user that the sdcard is unavailable, instead of opening B or C. I set a check in A to display that message when sdcard is unavilable. When that message is displayed, A will not try to start B or C.
Things works perfectly if user only enter my application from application launcher. However, I found that user can also enter my application by long pressing home and choose it from the recent application list, if he has opened it recently. When user does that, it skips A and goes directly to B or C. I don't have the check in both of them, so exception is thrown while I am trying to access sdcard, and force close dialog pops up.
I can simply move my check to both B and C to fix this problem. But in the future, the number of activities started from A will increase. If there are 6 of them, I'll need to copy this check to 6 places. Needless to say, this looks very ugly, and is a maintenance nightmare.
So, the best fix should be removing my application from recent application list when the sdcard is uunmounted. However, I can't find how to do this. Even killing the process or use ActivityManager.restartPackage, it still appears in the list. Can anyone tell me how to remove it from the list?

I am wanting to simulate the look of the "recent applications" display that you get when you long press the home key. At first I thought it was a custom dialog but apparently (according to what I see in the Hierarchy viewer) it is a PhoneWindow$DecorView. I presume the DecorView is the main layout for this. According to the docs there is no layout or window named this, so I can not extend from it.

New feature of ICS, "Recent Apps with thumbnails" is a privacy concern for me. As it shows my personal text messages in the thumbnail to people whom i handover my device. I have already locked message application but still ICS is able to capture a screenshot of it and displays it in Recent App history. Is there a way to bypass an application from Recent apps history?

I am writing an app that wants to be able to handle URLs. I also want to be able to launch it stand-alone with no arguments, so I've specified two intent filters: I have also specified android:launchMode="singleTask". Now, if I explicitly launch my application from the application list, its name and icon can be found in the "recent apps" list that pops up when I hold the home key. If I then use the email application to open a URL in my application, my application disappears from the "recent apps" list. Why does this happen, and what can I do about it? I notice that the Browser application doesn't behave like this, and it has similar intent filters and the same launchMode..

When you click Phone->Menu->Settings,
What is the default message in the "Edit default message" used for? Right now it says "I am busy right now. I will call you later".
Also, what is the "Edit message" field for? Right now it says "Edit text message before sending". Not sure why these text message sounding settings are in Phone settings.

Since the 2.1 OTA, I noticed in my contacts that it shows ALL phone numbers as numbers to send messages to.Previously, message numbers were all set to just the mobile numbers. I don't see any easy way to fix this.

Whenever I get a text message I always get a subtle little chime on my phone. But it is not the notification tone that I setup under "Settings". In fact, no matter what I select for a notification tone, I always get the same little chime. Isn't this configurable? If so, why will it not use the tone that I have designated for "Notifications"?

"I am busy right now. I will call you later." This seems like a feature that I had with my BB. If you miss a call or reject a call, you could send this text message to the caller automatically.
My question is, how do you do this on the Eris? I can't figure it out. Has anyone used this feature?

When I used BufferedInputStream and I specify a buffer size, Dalvik gives me this warning - Default buffer size used in BufferedInputStream constructor. It would be better to be explicit if an 8k buffer is required.
But right now, my buffer size is already at 8k. What am I doing wrong?

I have handcent and when I click on my message icon, it asked me what I wanted to set as a default. I don't believe I clicked anything and went about my business. I read that if I set my handcent as my default, when I click my message icon, it will bring up handcent. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling to get that box to pop up, but it won't. What do I need to do so that I can access my handcent through my message icon?

How I am supposed to use email on android. Am I supposed to use the gmail app or HTC email app? Also is there a better email app? I am coming from a Palm pre. Is there an email app that views html email better? I like how on the iPhone and pre, you see the whole email, zoomed out. I hate having to pan around, I hate by default it is zoomed in.

I have Handcent SMS installed, but when I receive a text I get two alerts. The first is a dark grey popup box with the text in it. Then I get the Handcent alert. I am assuming the first popup is the default SMS app. How can I disable this?
