Go SMS Pro question

[BrownSugar622]

Hi Everyone,

I'm a newbie who just upgraded to the Thunderbolt after 4 years of Blackberry.

I'm loving this phone but had a question about Go SMS Pro.

When I get a text message from someone who has AT&T, the notice comes in through GO SMS and also in Messages.

Is there a way to fix this?

Disable the message notifications in the stock message app. That should take care of it.

And if you're rooted, you can actually un-install the stock messaging app completely, GO SMS will retreive text and mms messages on its own.

Highly recommend rooting your thunderbolt. It's like a brand new phone all over again

I've always been rooted and it never even occurred to me to freeze stock message app even though I also use go sms pro. What's the point?

Personally, I prefer just changing my wallpaper.

Yeah, disabling he stock one should take care of it.

I also have Handcent installed because sometimes (not often) GoSMS Pro doesn't display MMS messages that well.

I remember you came close once!

Yes. I think I said something like maybe ICS would sway me. But now that the stock TBolt is so good, I'm not so sure about that any more. Having ICS available as a third party ROM would be nice. But if they make it available via an official VZW/HTC OTA, we'll all have to do it, like it or not. Not sure I'm into that any more.

Strange, I couldn't get Handcent to work properly with MMS to save my life - it would show that a picture needed to be downloaded, but when I selected the download button it would always fail. I'd end up having to open the stock messaging app to view it. I finally got sick and tired of that and just uninstalled it and went back to the stock app.

I know this isn't an app forum, but why does Go SMS not show vcard attachments?
How do we make that work?
