HTC Desire :: Get MMS Message From 5556 - Visible In Locked Screen Widget?
Oct 5, 2010
I have a Android with Lee Droid Froyo. Also is the standard messaging app along with Handcent SMS app. The first issue is that after I receive messages for a period of time (week or so) messages start coming in as MMS messages instead of SMS from a 5556 number, not the person who sent the SMS. I check the details and it states the incoming message is "SMS Message", however both stock message and handcent app handle and label as a MMS message from user 5556 but the message in the MMS is blank. When the messages arrive they are visible in the locked screen messages widget then disappear after entering the program to view them. I had the "delete old messages" unchecked and had a SMS message limit of 200. I have since checked the "delete old messages" and increased to 300 the SMS message limit but still have the same issue.

I want to put out a message from my application on locked screen. Something like, If Found please call <number>
Is there a way to do it ? I see there is a FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED flag using which I assume it can be done. Can anyone provide some example?

So I'm having a peculiar problem which doesn't appear to be specific to my model phone.
I use Google Voice for my text messaging so I'm not sure when this started. But I'd like to be able to at least receive text messages that people try to send to my main number. But what happens now is that I see the message text appear in the notification part temporarily, but when I go into the stock SMS app all I see is a separate blank message from "5556" and always with a date of March 26 and a time of 12:19AM. The actual message doesn't appear.
I've used APNdroid and QuickSettings in the past to disable 3G but leaving the "allow MMS" option checked. Neither is currently enabled but maybe they mess with settings somewhere?
And like I said, I have Google Voice installed too. Not sure what else could have messed with settings. My message center is set to "+13123149810". I have been searching and saw these threads so it's not unique: SMS and MMS issue sms from 5556 after upgrade to cm6.0.1rc1 - xda-developers. No solution though. Any thoughts?

I don't understand why while using the lock feature on my Incredible when i recieve a text it shows up on the screen before i unlock the phone. isn't the point of locking it to keep prying eyes from seeing your stuff? Is there a way to prevent the contents of the text from showing up before unlocking while still being notified that you have recieved a message?

i have faced on my Micromax Smarty 4 A68 is that whenever I receive any message or Missed call on my phone, notification is not visible on the message icon and the phone icon. This is the reason i am using Holo Launcher and Apex launcher and unable to use Nova launcher or xperia launcher.

I'm going to create widget which needs to update its content every minute (it shows time-related data).
However, there is no need to update widget if it is currently invisible, which means:
screen is turned off
another app is running
widget is placed on another (invisible) home screen tab
What is the best way to update only visible widget every minute - without waking up device nor doing unnecessary computations? After widget becomes visible, small lag before update is acceptable.

I'm at the beginning of writing an AddWidget for the home-screens. From what I understand, these can only utilize RemoteViews ran by the home-process and not your own. Which means we won't be getting any callbacks, such as onDraw. Is there a way you can get knowledge of how often and for how long a widget is visible? The RemoteView API seems very simplistic, what am I missing?

Is there a way to keep messages from previewing on the screen even when it is locked? I have installed handsent and like it, i would like to eliminate HTC messages all together but dont want to root my phone. Is there another way to accomplish this. If phone is unattended anyone can see who is sending messages to me.

It would appear on a G1 (with the latest software update) that onUpdate () runs even when the widget is not visible. Is there a way of sensing that the widget is or is not visible or is otherwise in foreground? That is, running the code below shows a logcat message at whatever interval the Widget is scheduled to update, whether it's in foreground or not, whether even the screen is dim or otherwise in deep sleep. It would seem onUpdate should only be scheduled to run when the Widget is in the foreground or visible. Is this a defect in the G1, or is there some other API call to detect if the Widget is visible?
public class HomeScreenWidget extends AppWidgetProvider { ...

When i ran my old application in 1.6 i noticed that the progress bar was not showing up on the screen.When i analyzed it further i found the issue.The progress bar is getting activated but its not visible since my background color is also white.When i changed the background color i was able to see the progress bar.Is there no other way to make the progress bar visible other than changing the background color..Shouldn't the progress bar be visible under all background colors??

there's any way to disable text message previews on my lock screen? Surely this represents a massive security flaw- having the text for anyone to read without needing to unlock- so I would have thought there was some way to remove this?

This is more of an annoyance, but whenever I reply to a message off the home screen widget, it automatically defaults to the home number for that contact, instead of replying to the same (cell) number that it was sent from. If I go into the messaging app, it works as it should (replies to the same number).

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing a problem with the full screen weather widget where when you scroll to it it says "Loading Data" then goes completely blank and then cant do anything with it. Removing the widget and re-adding makes it work again a reboot also brings it back to life for a couple of seconds but then goes blank. Clicking on the weather picture on the clock still brings up the details weather screen.

I've been having a problem with my desire home screen (in particular the sms icon) and I'm wondering if anyone else knows how to fix it.
Recently my messages icon has been showing the little "1" in a green circle indicating I have an unread message. Problem is, I've gone through every list of messages I have on the device and there are no messages I haven't read and the "1" stays there. The only ways I've found to get rid of it are to either delete the icon and then put it back or to use Advance Task Killer and kill messages application. I'm not using any fancy apps for messages, just the default one.
My email counter is always perfect, this only seems to affect my sms. Also, my girlfriend told me she sent me a message a few days ago, but I never received it. Not sure if that's a happy coincidence, or if the phone got the message, is telling me I haven't read it, but isn't displaying it for me to see. All the other messages from her are plainly visible.

I'm back to using LauncherPro, but again I have the problem where the stock widgets aren't compatible, ot HTC doesnt want you to use them with anything other than Sense.
I ADORE the stock full screen Photo Widget. Where the photos look like they're overlapping, and you can swipe through them to view the images.
Does anyone know if someone has recreated this style of Gallery Widget for none sense UI?

Is there such a widget/app that can place a button on the home screen to instantly lock the screen instead of pressing the power button.
The only one I could find takes 6 seconds before it locks.

I just woke up and the bottom half of my X's screen is black/grey with green lines! This is the FIRST issue i have had with this phone. Picture is from the only other camera in the house, my crappy webcam, so its hard to really see. Anyone else had this? Did verizon help (especially if you bought it from their site) what should i bring to the store to get it replaced?

I just got an HTC desire and I am on my 6th day of playing with it. At first I thought it was a big step up from my previous phone (that had real buttons...and lots of them) however after I started copying my music to the tiny 4Gb SD card I realised that my photos app was showing all the album art work. This was actually quite annoying and it has taken me some hours to find a solution. If anyone is having the same problem they will realise how annoying this is, so I have documented below how to solve it.The problem seems to come from two sources:
1. The Desire (and I guess other android devices) scan the entire SD card for media. Sure enough the scan would return some jpg images located in my MP3 folder (the album art work). Android seems to be limited here and you cannot create an exclsuion folder that doesnt effect both the music app and the photo app (so, this rules out the .nomedia folder)
2. Tagging the MP3's correctly using ID3 tags should appearntly solve this problem. Although you have to be careful here as I have found that not all media players tag the MP3's in the same way. Windows Media player and Tag Runner both tag the MP3 so it appears correct (no separate jpg image is created) however, they still appear in the photo's app.
The only application I have found that works is mediamonkey. Tagging all my MP3's using media monkey stops the album art work appearing in the photo's app which has made my trowling through for my pictures much more graceful.

Just moved from an old WM device and separate mobile phone 'combination' to a single HTC Desire to 'do it all'. Pretty pleased so far but still searching (and finding) my way around things. One thing I was wondering about but didn't find an answer to is if you can't set anything so that your mobile operator name shows up in the home screen (just like with a phone). I'm traveling quite often for work and know from experience that one operator is often better in coverage or options than another one - so it would help if I can see the operator that is selected. I know that I can dig into the menus or status bar to see the operator but didn't find a way to show it 'always on' on the home screen.

One of the best features IMO of Home++ was not having the task bar visible at top of screen. I really liked just having the scrolling toolbar at bottom. Recently the task bar at top has shown back up. Anyone else experiencing this? Was this part of a recent update that I didn't pay attention to until just now?
I still really like Home++, even with that bar, just prefer not to have it.

All of a sudden my girlfriend's Nexus One is rebooting somehow. She fires up her phone, it boots just fine, after a few seconds when everything is loaded, u can scroll thru the menus etc, it seems to reboot, but real fast, the animation comes up, and 2sec later the home screen is visible again. It keeps doing this.
Any ideas? The phone is not rooted, no custom rom, just a few regular apps form the market installed, nothing fancy.

I recently upgraded my Android app to support multiple resolutions. Previously, my Android.manifest file had a line:
To support multiple density and resolution devices, I changed this to:
CODE:............
I then added a couple of new directories, like drawable-hdpi-v4 and drawable-long-hdpi-v4 that includes the high-res versions of the graphics. That's about it.
Ever since releasing this update, there have been a decent number of users complaining about various problems:
the app icon doesn't appear (I did not create a high res version of the icon)
the home screen widget no longer works, even if they delete and re-add it (this code did not change with the update). I've had a user send me their error log, which shows:
CODE:................
There is one questionable section in my existing widget code that may be relevant:
CODE:..........
And perhaps most troublesome: the sqlite database is no longer accessible/writeable for some users so their data is no longer available. I did add the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission to the manifest. This is only happening to certain users and it tends to be HTC Eris users. In that error log I see things such as:
CODE:.........
It's as if the update has caused a new process and it can't access the old process's data, or something.

I successfully partitioned EXT3/FAT32, rooted, and flashed Defrost.
Now a strange thing is occurring. I installed an off market app, but I can only see its folder in Android's File Manager, not in Windows XP.
This is going to cause me serious problems because I need to transfer some files into that folder from my PC.
How can I access this App's folder in Win XP?

I have just purchased a telstra branded HTC desire [outright] 2 days ago from JB HIFI, the salesman said its unlocked and i assumed its all good.
I can definately send/recieve calls and sms, BUT i cannot connect to the net for browsing unless im at home in my wifi area... i dont get it.. its like the device is a half locked phone, calls/sms -ok, internet-no only to telstra >>
I have a vodafone [prepaid sim] and i was able to browse and recieve emails and so on with my nokia e63 on prepaid with no issue whatsoever. This is my first android phone and im feeling a little lost/stumped with it and taken advantage of with half truths from the salesman at JB HIFI. Im sure they would know about this, i did make it clear and stress out it is a non telstra sim and that its prepaid.
