Thank you both any other suggestions?
I'd like to have my normal texts and texts with pictures in the same app/thread, what's the easiest and best free app to accomplish this? Or is hangouts sufficient?
What's the best easiest to use MMS third party app that's also free?
8SMS is a good AOSP based messaging app if you want a replacement.
Sliding is slow and choppy
This was definitely the case when I first tried the app like 6 months ago but the dev has actually made some pretty significant performance improvements since then. I'm currently running it in the "Hangouts" UI and in no way is it slow or choppy (at least not any more than any other Android app). I've also tried the other UIs and those run fine as well. And this is on an old-ass Galaxy Nexus.
Well,
Samsung is all about AMOLED tech, and basically the reviewer is comparing LCD tech to AMOLED. So yeah.
I myself really like AMOLED.
three kind of unrelated questions from me...
1. how long until we see AMOLED televisions? It's an amazing technology for video. Like, it has Plasma's black levels and even beats LCD's power consumption.
Integrating two totally different messaging systems that use different means of transport and have different billing patterns and which use different forms of user ID is a horrible idea.
You're right this was how it was in April, but it's still not that great. There's still long loading times. I last tried the app in October on my Nexus 4. It literally takes 3 minutes to load a thread of 900 texts from one of my good friends.
I've got mine and wanted to quickly comment on screen that I made a big deal out of in previous pages. Well, I am happy to report that my concern was unfounded. The screen looks gorgeous to me. It sucks that I don't have time to play with it at the moment but the improvement over the N4's screen is H-U-G-E. So the screen gets a resounding approval from me from the first glance.
How does the weight feel in your hand?
Our iPhone 4 feels like a freakin brick.
It's the exact same weight as a Galaxy S4.How does the weight feel in your hand?
You want to hide the back button!?Disappointed that Chrome doesn't use Immersive mode to hide the menu and nav bar for the ultimate full screen experience.

We tested the black version of the Nexus 5 as opposed to the two-tone white version. While at first glance the only difference might seem to be the colors, the two phones actually use different types of plastic around the edge. The black version has a matte, soft touch plastic on the back and sides, but the white version uses glossy plastic for the sides and matte soft touch plastic for the back. We haven't gotten to play with the white glossy plastic version, but it probably feels like other glossy plastics (aka terrible).
Are any of you guys who have already received, have any manufacturing issues that are being reported by many over Xda. And it seems that almost all of them consistently have all or at least couple of following problems.
1) Bad Vibrator(the biggest problem & the reason may well have answered during the tear down of Nexus 5 by Ifixit, who have pointed out that the vibrator is attached to back panel with just a loose adhesive).
2) Stuck or dead pixels & Back-light bleed.
3) Bad or Muffled sound when volume is set to <50%
4) Back panel discoloration
No offense to anyone, but it seems like only now we're opening our eyes to how bad the N4's camera was. I hate to say it, but "I told ya so!" I can see how now we're talking about how much of an improvement the N5 is, but maybe a year later we'll realize how bad it was still in relation to the rest of the competition?
