Handcent vs. GoSMS -- which do you prefer?

[music_man185]

i've been using handcent for a couple weeks, and i really like it except for the fact that it wont download my mms messages.

i installed go sms pro last night. it downloads mms messages. but i like the fact that handcent shows contact pictures for each message sent in the conversation window. i couldn't find an option for go sms to do this. anyone know how?

I used to be a heavy handcent user, it was the only thing I used for a while but once gingerbread ports came around I stopped using it because of all the messaging quirks that were already happening. I have tried GOsms a few times. it's really laggy in my experience.

I used handcent for such a long time and then one day, I searched the market. I found go sms pro at first and then the go launcher. Downloaded both and still have both. I think go sms pro does a better job with mms and the texting side is about the same as handcent imo. The one problem I had with go sms pro was it getting hung up trying to load my sms background/theme. There were times where it wouldn't load it at all and it would just come up as that baby blue/white stock screen. Kind of annoying, but whatever. But yes, right now go sms pro is what I use.

I used Handcent for a couple of years, then started having problems with it on my Thunderbolt. Switched to GO SMS and still here.

I absolutely love handcent however, their customer service really stinks.
