Chomp > Handcent

I have been using Chomp for the last month and was getting pretty frustrated with it. It was laggy and FC a lot. About a week ago I downloaded Handcent and am loving it. Time will tell but for me Handcent is way better than Chomp.

 

I've used both Handcent and Chomp and I actually prefer Handcent. They're both great, but for some reason I just like Handcent more.

 

I use it. Only thing that's missing is being able to select foreground apps that will prevent the popup. I keep losing Robo Defense games because my wife is texting me

 

I have both installed. Had handcent install for awhile now, but I dl chomp to test it out. What I have come up with handcent doesn't pick up all my contacts. If I go type in Wes doesn't pull up his name as contact. When I use chomp can pull his name up. Please explain that? If had to choose one would be handcent.

 

Is your contact "Wes" a mobile number? Both Handcent and ChompSMS have a setting to only show mobile numbers in its contact list.

 

How can it tell?

 

Its a smartphone.

Joking aside, in your contacts list, you can set what type of number it is. Mobile, Home, Work, Pager, Fax etc...

 

Thanks, I must of missed that.

 

D'OH *facepalm*

... ignore me, stupid question lol

 

Go into an individual contact in your conversation list. From there, go into the options screen. Everything looks the same as the overall options, but if you change something in the notifications there (LED, vibrate, ringtone, icon (I think)) it will only change for that specific contact. Very handy.

 

+1 for Handcent never had any problems with it!! Just wish I could backup my settings or something I've given up on try to customize it as I flash ROMs too often these days :\
