Just wanted to know how to turn off the stock SMS feature so I can use the one I downloaded. I have handcent and like it alot better. Usually when I get my first SMS it asks which one I would like to use as default, but it never did. I am getting two notifications and two pop ups at the moment Thanks!
Open the stock app then menu>settings>received notification (uncheck)

Is there a simple way to replace the stock Mms.APK with AOSP Mms.APK... Thanks in advance.
You try installing the apk?

I would install handcent which you can make to look like the stock messaging app with the dark theme plus you gain additional alert settings and vcard functionality not available in stock.

Only downside is it doesn't havE full mms support, almost tho. Shortly after it does buh-bye mms apk
Why.....?
Because..... Kaos is better than sense. duh!!!
as an fyi from personal experience, even when you use a different mms app, don't delete the original mms.apk or messaging.apk from your phone, because it won't be able to receive messages anymore. i know cause i tried it!

Not true. I have deleted the stock mms from fr008 and handcent works just fine with the usual bug that it ignores system settings for vibrate on notify.

when i try and adb push Mms.apk it tells me the system memory is full... any solution?

Are you booted into clockwork recovery? And if so make sure you have /system mounted.

If you delete the stock mms app then you will not be able to send/receive mms with handcent. It doesn't have that capability, it only handles sms on its own at this time. But if you don't user mms then that's no problem.

yeah i did system mount and it said memory full, i then unmounted and adb push worked but didnt show up on the phone.... i did how ever have to pull the battery out to get it to reboot.
Title explains it all... I just want to use handcent
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
on most phones it causes system errors and force closes. i will go out on a limb and assume the same for MT4G. just install handcent and default it for everything!
ps: have you tried go sms? i prefer it.
I like chomp sms as a replacement if I use a replacement. Has the quick compose option that I like.
Ok, I tried looking online and even deleting the stock messaging app.
My problem is that everytime I receive a text message I receive the little envelope notification in the task bar. Even when I check my texts through this notification, it stays there until I actually press clear on all the notifications. This might be stupid to some, but it absolutely annoys me.
Someone please help.

What msg service r u using. If its 3rd party then u have to ho into stock app and tell iT in settings not to get notifications
I was just using stock and yes I unchecked everything in those settings, and unfortunately I kept receiving them.
Now I've deleted the stock messaging app, and now using the handcent third party app, but I'm still receiving the stock notification and a handcent one.... Is this a bug?
I'm rooted on stock rom.

You problem is deleting the stock messaging app. It still delivers the text through OS, even though the actual app is no longer present. You should have kept it and told it to ignore.
You have to go into your stock messaging app, tap menu, then go to settings. Once in there you need to find "auto-retrieve" and unchecked the box. Then find "notifications" and unchecked that box as well

Okay....so I wiped everything and reflashed cm7 and still its messed up

Sounds silly, but have you looked throug hal lthe Handcent settings?
Becasue all yea raeally need to do with stock is clear the show notifications box.
I finally gave up on third party mms apps and just run stock now. It's fine. I don't need balloons.

Anybody know of a texting app that you can quick compose from the lock screen? I had one on my iPhone and by pressing the volume key it brought up the quick compose box.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
handcent has this feature. And also the same layout as the iphone!
chomp, handcent, and go i believe all have the ablity
Handcent does this for sure.
I use GoSMS, but Handcent and Chomp achieve this too. I tried Handcent and it had some really nice features, I just didn't like the appearance of the app...just personal preference. I haven't tried Chomp, however it looks nice...Just too lazy lol.
I have handcent but how do you set it so the quick reply is used from the lock screen?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
I use GoSMS. Im not aware of any feature like this. Handecent or Chomp might have it.

GOSMS does have this option. its in the notifications settings, enable popup windows. then go into default notifications, and check 'unlock screen' and 'screen on'
it doesnt leave the lockscreen locked afterward, but quick reply is cool
an alternative if you prefer to use the stock sms app, you can use an add-on called SMS popup and it has this feature too. i prefer sms pop up myself

I think this should do it.
handcent>settings>notification settings>popup settings>show over lock screen fix
hope it helps.

Hey guys just got this phone today loving it. I have a question when I was using the stock LG keyboard I could add Emoji the problem is they would only send as mms. Any way to have them send as sms?

Is there a way to send a picture with WiFi and data off. On my htc one messaging app would enable data to just send the message then turn it back off.

Well, if you download Textra SMS there is a setting in which it will only turn on your data to send MMS and then it will automatically shut it off. Great way to save data and battery. I've been using Textra for a while now and its simple, light, and fully featured.

I have a lot of experience with textra but I am really enjoying the stock messaging app. On my htc one the stock app could do the same thing as textra that is why it is weird that my g2 can not. I like the little pop up box. It works well.

I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you but I send mms over WiFi all the time with no issues. I just turned mobile data off and tried it and it went through just fine. I'm on the T-Mobile version.

Strange i am on the att version when i turn data off and try to send a picture i get the error "no data connection will send message when connection becomes available."
I am trying to use the same apn settings i had on my one, but so far nothing seems to work. Will keep trying that was one of my favorite features of my one that i would always receive mms instead of having to click download it would automatically do it.
