Thanks.

Another question.. any way i could see the message on my lock screen how the stock messenger would do it?

Not yet, I would suggest writing Handcent and requesting this feature. They are always updating the app. I will do the same and maybe we will get somewhere.

having a weird issue with handcent. When I get texts from my girlfriend they are always from two different numbers. One will be "+1760#######" and another one will be from "+760#######" Anyone know why? Its kinda annoying because I have two threads in handcent for the same conversation with my gf. And its unpredictable which number her next text is going to come from

Sounds like she's using her other boyfriends phone to text you haha. Jk bro. I have no idea, maybe its on her side of the convo? Can you change her contact to include the 1 and maybe it will keep her in the same conversation with or without the 1 included.

Does the text not pop up when you choose it from your notifications or when it is sent? After it comes up respond to it then it will be a conversation you can blacklist.

Haha, naw the number is the same, its just that one has "+1" and the other is just "+" in front of the area code. She is texting from a hero as well, and I did try adding both those numbers to her under contacts and handcent still keeps the two convos separated depending on which number it sees the text coming from. Shes coming over in a while so i'm going to check out her phone and see if I can get it figured out.

Also just curious. Does the change led light option work for any of you? Tried changing it to red or orange and it is always green no matter what.

I was having the same exact problem last night. What you need to do is on the notification that pops up, quick reply something BACK to that number. You will get a message saying that it could not be sent, but this will make that message show up in the main screen of handcent, then you can long press on it and tell it to blacklist

Yeah, enable popups just so you can get it blacklisted. Make sure that the "window mode" under "popup setting" is set to full, then just call yourself and leave a voicemail, then when you get the text a popup will come on screen and you can quick reply right there. Then go into the main menu of handcent and long press on the convo and tell it to blacklist. Then you can disable popups again like i did.
