SMS Chat App?

fraze · #1 (**permalink**) 01-23-2009, 12:11 AM

I'm looking for something a little more stylish than the normal SMS interface. Is there something cool? Preferably free, but willing to shell out a few $$$...

Thanks

PocketCM is one I have used for a couple years, I really like the look, it is customizablr, and new skins are being made as we speak (Tene just released a new version of PocketCM that needs new skins):

I am looking for the same thing. A good looking SMS chat application that I can set to be my default when I hit the SMS button in SPB shell. I really like the text bubbles like on the iPhone and some of the skins for PocketCM. I would use PocketCM but it runs slow for me and there is no stand alone call log. If either of those two things can be fixed I would be extremely happy. Thanks!

Check the tweak thread that is stickied for info on how to set your default SMS app in SPB.

I'd toss in another vote in search of a better SMS chat program for this phone... I'll try out PocketCM, thought about trying Vito Chat as well, but when I googled the site McAfee SiteAdvisor had it flagged as a red site ("Linked to Red Site"). I haven't heard anything bad about that program, but didn't think it was worth risking it...

skrump....I still swear by PocketCM. It is always under development, so you know you will get support, and I find it pretty easy to use. I have never had any problems with it, and any questions usually get answered pretty fast on the main site, or the XDA support thread!

is there tweaks to get PocketCM integrated, so like if i click on my txt icon on ST2 then it will go there instead of to the built in one?

Anyone else have difficulty getting PocketCM to install to My Storage? For some reason it defaults to the default Program Files directory which is already at 82%. I've installed everything possible to the My Storage section and I'm still at 82%. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

It is probably hard coded to go to that file. SOme items have to be installed to main memory to work correctly.
