I installed and have been using Google Voice for SMS on my new amazing Incredible. I get a notification when I get a new SMS but after I view the notification and close the threaded message box, I can't find how to view the SMS message again to refer back to it or continue the conversation at a later time. Anyone else know?

One feature of my old Env2 that I really miss and can't seem to find on my Incredible is to find the original time that an SMS message was sent. If I have my phone off for an hour, and turn it back on and receive a text message that was sent at some point in that hour, how can I find out when exactly it was sent? I don't see the option in Handcent or in the Stock Messaging app.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have a custom Android view which overrides onTouchEvent(MotionEvent) to handle horizontal scrolling of content within the view. However, when the ScrollView in which this is contained scrolls vertically, the custom view stops receiving touch events. Ideally what I want is for the custom view to continue receiving events so it can handle its own horizontal scrolling, while the containing view hierarchy deals with vertical scrolling.
Is there any way to continue receiving those motion events on scroll? If not, is there any other way to get the touch events I need?
If I start to reply to a message I have no option to discard it like I do a new message.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI dislike G Mail because of the threading and it is SLOW but it would appear to be the only email client on android that can forward html so I'm stuck with it. How in the world do you delete an individual message of a conversation without deleting the entire conversation? When I expand a conversation, the messages have reply, reply all and forward at the bottom of the message but no delete. The delete button at the bottom of the screen (between archive and older) only wants to delete the whole conversation. What am I missing?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a common problem with my heros sense UI or at least a HTC widget, the message widget. Not only is it the most laggy widget ever, but sometimes it bugs for me so that I can only go two messages down, not able to scroll further downwards to other conversations - only upwards. Anyone else tried this or know why it happens?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am trying to programmatically open an individual email in the Gmail app on Android.
I know it can be done because the built-in notifications send you to a message when you click on them and there's an app on the market called Gmail Notifier which does it as well.
What I've tried so far:
-send an ACTION_VIEW intent with the message URI as data (failed - cannot resolve URI)
-send an intent to open HtmlConversationActivity in the Gmail package (failed - "requires permission: null")
Would it help to add flags or a category to the intent? If so, which one(s)?
I know that the Gmail app is not well-documented, but it drives me mad that there is definitely a way to do it and I just can't figure it out!
P.S.: This is the first time I'm posting on stackoverflow, so I apologise in advance if I have ignored any conventions.
I have a new Rogers HTC Magic. When I check my Gmail I can only view the last message in the conversation. None of the preceding messages in the same conversation can be viewed. The screen only displays the first few words of the prior message. When I click on those words nothing happens. The only way I can view the previous messages is to press menu and then select "mark unread". Is there no other way of viewing the other previous messages in the same conversation?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo I just got my first Android device today (switched from a BlackBerry Bold 9700). I love everything about this device so far and I hoping to keep that streak going.
I get a LOT of emails and most are simply replies to the same thread. I love the conversation view (same as I had on my BB), but unlike the BB, I can take actions on the thread as a whole (e.g. Mark as Read and Move to Folder).
How do I do this on the Android?
Anyone know how to disable the sms threaded/conversation view on the desire?
I have found an app called smstray that come close to doing what i need but its not perfect.
If someone texts you late at night and your phone is off, when you turn your phone on the next morning you get the text and the date and time shows the time you boot up your phone. You would think it would have the actual date and time the peson sent the message. Am I missing something?

View 1 Replies View RelatedOnly thing I can think of that I miss on my storm. When turning it off, it would alert you it would be turning back on at your alarm time to wake you and would do exactly that. Stock app doesn't do that. I've searched and gone through market apps descriptions looking for this function. At the least I want the alarm to go off when the phones turned off. I don't need it to notify me when its turning on, when its shutting down.

1 - Dropped calls - no matter who or where I am calls drop about 25% of the time. I can be sitting at home doing nothing but talking then drop.. it happens alot.. starting to annoy me..
2 - Failed to send texts - I am having a text conversation then a random message stops and wont deliver - retry - retry again - wait a minute or 2 and retry - it works.... this is getting very anoying.. again about 25% of the time.
3 - Internet connection - (3g) - after about 4 or 5 clicks it will lock up and display page not found... wait about a minute - retry and again it works... this is about 40% of the time
4 - my friend sends me a text message/ missed call with a new number. I cant add it to an existing contact - it only allows you to add a new contact. plus copy and paste doesnt work at these points. - i end up having to write the number down and then edit the contact.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I have returned back to the stock Message app for SMS mainly because no other app has a photo next to each message like the stock one does.
But I was wondering if there is a way to control how many messages show up in each conversation? Like, say I am having a conversation with Bob. When I open up our conversation, it shows EVERY SINGLE message between us two, all the way from our very first text. And so scrolling and browsing through our conversations can get laggy.
Is there anyway to just show the recent messages in the conversation? I know in ChompSMS, it automatically does that, and if you scroll to the top of the conversation, theres an option to "show older messages."
this happens sometimes but not all the time if im in a conversation with someone i wont recieve a text from the for a while but once i call someone or send another text i will recieve a text from them that they sent a while ago anyone know a fix for this.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android having just come from Blackberry [loving the change, btw]. However the only thing I am missing. Is there any way within SMS Text Messages you can delete previous parts of the conversation? I see that it saves all my conversation with a person so I have todays conversation and yesterdays too. However, I want to delete all of yesterdays text messages but still keep the conversation thread I'm having currently. Does this make sense? It was something I liked with my old phone- the "delete previous" option. Is there something like this on the HTC Incredible?

I am doing an app related to football. I have a list view that will have various rows representing teams. In my custom array adapter I want to write some code that will present an icon for the team represented by the row. I have a drawable resource for each team (for instance for Indianapolis, Ind.png). In my code I can't refer to "R.drawable. Ind" because the Ind part is dynamic. That value would be in an array, like TeamArray[position]. As I expected, I certainly can't use R.drawable.TeamArray[position] because it won't even compile, it expects a literal name from the drawable folder. Is there a way to do this?
View 8 Replies View RelatedIs there a possibility to refer to a string ressource in the arrays.xml?
I have tried: <string-array name="services"> <item>@strings/call</item> </string-array>
which I would normally do in a layout file. But it failed.
Dianne mentioned we can use "@*android:type/name" to reference resource added to framework-res.apk at "what's the best way for OEM to organize it's own resources?"(http://groups.google.com/group/android- framework/browse_thread/thread/e9974bd5a42af10a/1f7055086f5489a7).
And I did see it is used in android source and looks like it is used to refer to internal resource not public, am I right?
I wonder whether it is possible to refer to internal resource without errors in Eclipse. I tried but adt reports error.
I finally bit the bullet and switch to the HTC Eris from an Env. I am a heavy texter and live just outside of the service area for Verizon. I have downloaded and am using (and happy with) handcent. I have done some searching between this forum and a few others and have not been able to find an answer to my questions regarding sms messaging. It is very likely that I just wasn't searching for the correct terms, and I did find some answers and others that contradicted themselves, so I apologize in advance for starting a repeat thread if any thread nazis want to lecture me on the rights and wrongs of forum etiquette.
1. Is there anyway to see what time a message was sent? On my Env it would tell me what time the sender sent it as well as the time I received it. I like being able to know when mesages were originally sent.
2. Delivery reports. I get what this does, I've seen that some people have said that it really isn't accurate, but does it really have to send the report as a text message? is there anyway to just get a log or confirmation within messaging details?
3. along the same lines I see that under MMS, there is an option for a read report. Is there anyway to get this for sms?
4. Also, if there are any other texting tips/tricks
Anyway to have a time stamp on every message? I miss being able to tell when I sent the message that says I'll be 20 minutes. and well its just nice to know in general.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was sure I saw a thread on this sometime ago, but I can't seem to find it, so I'm sorry if this is a duplicate.When I send out text messages, the time is correct, but when I receive them, the time that it says it was sent is almost 5hours off.Anyone have any ideas to this?
