sms issues. - Nexus S General

now yes i searched the threads and couldnt find anything.
on my nexus s that i just got recently, i cant type more than 160 characters in a message..it stops. on my evo shift for sprint, i could just keep typing and send long messages but the reciever would just get multiple messages. thats how it should be. now with out rooting and without downloading something like handcent, is there a way to send long messages ?
thank you.

Are you stock? What rom are you on.

Roms based on cm7 and cm7 itself have sms split option in the stock sms.

"Call" logs

I completely despise the fact that Froyo builds include text messages and even voicemail messages in the Phone app logs. To top it off, you can select to view by dialed, received, and missed calls, but not all calls excluding messages, as it was before. Has anyone looked into doing something about it?

I also abhor this. It is absurdly redundant.

Use the phone from a captivate 2.2 build. Its not on ours.

Yes! This bugs the crap out of me too.
Mammon posted a fix in the Development Section and included it in his latest Froyo Rom. Haven't tried it myself yet though.
Here is a fix. I haven't tried it yet.

No way in stock app but handcent and I imagine chomp as well both support it. Personally I can't stand sigs in texts. Cause I text a lot. I don't need to see your name or any other stupid s**t at the end of your text lol. But anyway try out handcent or chomp. I prefer handcent. More customization options.

Can't Recieve Texts

For the past two days i have been unable to recieve texts. Im currently running MIUI rom but in the course of three days, ive switched between King's Bliss Beta v7, CM7.0.3.1 (Whatever the latest version on Rom Manager is), and now im on MIUI 9.30.11 any ideas for solutions?
tl;dr: rooted evo, miui rom latest, cant recieve texts

Something like that has happened to me a few times, and what has always fixed it for me has been to flash to a sense rom, go into the ##data# menu, and reactivate the data service. I don't remember the exact steps, but I can look it up if you need help.

Flash a sense rom, and call sprint. It sounds like either your phone needs to be reprogrammed or there is an outage in the area.
All right i'll try both. thanks guys

SMS WARS! Handcent vs. GO SMS Pro.

Which one IS the best????? You decide!
I decided on Handcent. -raises fist in the air-
Go SMS Pro for me. Handcent seems too Sense-ish
Stock!

I always liked go for aosp roms. Guess ill have to give handcent a try. I remember reading quite a while ago that some peeps were having nasty wakelock issues attributed to handcent. Is there any WL issues with it nowadays?

SMS pro. Just switched a week ago. Will never look back. Handcent was sluggish and took forever to load at times
I'll try that. Just put Handcent on and all it does is FC

Go SMS kicks a$$! It even has a drawing program so you can send cheesy sketches.

Idk why but i really like that feature. Feels like I'm a kid again
Go SMS for me. Used handsuck for a year. Laggy, updates sucked.
I like Go, because you can move it to SD, and get GO SMS widget and still see new messages on home screen icon.

That's a good plus right there. Anyone have any ideas on why HC just FC's on my phone?? Weird...

Yup I believe I know why. You restored it from a different version. If you either freeze it and update it, or delete and re-install from the market, you should be good to go.
Nope, that is installed from the market. I never had Handcent before
Go SMS. until handcent 4.0 comes out.

Actually, I put Go SMS on today. It's pretty sweet, and I'm not normally a fan of the Go products.

[Q] EL30 vs MTD or just wait

So I've stuck with BML through several different Roms. I originally rooted because I needed working gps and wifi. I had decided I was going to switch to MTD this weekend but now I'm not so sure. Any suggestions?
If I was in ur spot I would probably just wait and see what happens with el30
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
There's no gps fix in el30 as far as I've seen... just make the move eventually they will have el30 mtd roms within a week or two
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
cm7 or miui ROM is best for me... Im using miui and not switching til cm9 gets here.. try miui rom and u will see wat i mean..LOL
its different with more feature than TW roms has to offer..
Hmmm..I guess I would wait for your favorite ROM to do all the upgrades, grab the modem and then convert to MTD. Should be about a week.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I switched to MTD so I could run CM7, as well as my FAV ROM that I converted over, but besides the loads of extra space, it hasn't been much different.
If you want to try CM7, backup your fav BML setups, convert them to MTD, install CM7, the switch as you like.
But unless you are going to checkout CM7, I would stick with BML until EL30 ROMs come out, then jump.
This Epic post as brought to you via Tapatalk
sounds like a good time to try CM7 or MIUI.US. ran cm7 for a week, switched to MIUI.US for a week.
Most likely the devs will come out with a good MTD rom do you don't have to odin back to RFS to go back to EL30.

I'm thinking this sounds like a plan. Thanks for the suggestions guys!
Id say just switch to mtd, EL30 ROMs will be kind of cripple or in beta for a bit since mods have to be ported and debugged

After using CM7 there's just no going back... tons of features. Love the ability to revoke permissions from apps.

This +9000. I am readying an MTD of EI22 for my rom, its out to testers to make sure nothing is borked. EL30 is currently low on my list until someone proves it is completely CIQ-free.

lol EL30 is just a fix we have already had on cm7 and most any other EI22 rom for months now i say waste of time stick with MTD CM7 is a dream and with now official nightly updates it gets no better then that.
CM7 sounds really good, but is it ready for daily use in a business? I can flash every couple weeks and need emails, texts, gps navigation and working phone. I don't mind testing and installing different apps but reading the cm7 thread... well maybe it is just some of the noob questions. Is it ready for daily use?

I was skeptical but have been using it for days without issue. Check out my tip sharing thread in General and decide for yourself.

Okay
Emails - works just the same
Texts- the only issue with this is that you have to go into the messaging settings and split messages(not really an issue but there's a fix)
Gps- works better than on TouchWiz ROMs although I've never used navigation
Phone- only sight difference is when a call is ended it says "call lost" mightve been fixed idk don't make to much calls myself. But once again not really an issue, the call still ends the same.
So as you see its more than ready for daily use

Well email app has no way to pick "always show pictures" so using K9 is better.
MMS does not send over wifi with stock mms.apk but works with GoSMS.
Calls end normally now from what I saw.
There are even some ported TW stock apps in Apps subforum.

Ah I see that could be annoying
MMS "over" wifi I believe wasn't fixed I could be wrong but mms while on wifi for me currently works on nightly I don't even remember 14 I think lol 3g comes on and sends over 3g, everynow and then I have to send it twice because data didn't really connect but that's a different issue

Yes, that is what happens but it is more like 50/50, like it doesn't wait long enopugh for 3G to connect. But GoSMS doesn't switch to 3G, sends right over wifi.
I remember reading a change log on the recent nightlies where the mms over wifi was fixed.
