handcent and nexus

[Snareman]

I finally gave up on Handcent after way too many force closes. Hopefully they'll update and fix it. Going to try GoSMS for now.

Handcent did some strange things on my GNex:

• Test notification consistently crashes app
• Incoming texts were shown as from different sender occasionally

Lightflow sounded really cool, but it would lock my screen where i couldn't keep it lit and i had to do a battery pull twice just to get back into my phone. had to uninstall unfortunately.

I'm using GoSMS with ZERO issues!! I love it. I was real weary about using an SMS replacement but I'm glad I'm using GoSMS. I use the stock app as backup but haven't had any issues. Not being able to use emojis with my wife (iPhone 4) was making me think about returning the Nexus. Yes, I did just say that lol. But thanks to GoSMS emoji plugin I'm good to go.

wow..it DOES have groups...cool

How do you actually get groups to work in Handcent? Almost all of the groups on the Phone tab show zero members. On the Handcent tab when I create a group the list of contacts is missing very many of my contacts. I sent in a bug report about a week ago and heard no response at all so I'm about ready to give up on them, but then I saw here that it has some long-time fans, so maybe I'll give it a little longer. Version 3.9.9.9 is still frequently saying "Unfortunately, Handcent has stopped".
