Ok so when I receive a message in Handcent I get the pop up windows and no notifications from the default app. But after about 5 seconds Hancent opens up a new message window for no reason. I don't have the option to set a default messaging app. The window pops up, but there's not "set default" checkbox. Also when i go to the application settings, the "clear defaults" button is greyed out for both. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it didn't help. Anyone know how to fix this?

My notifications settings are unchecked for Text messages, and yet I still receive notifications for them. In fact all "display notifications" are unchecked. How do I fix this?
Also, the text message notification window is so small that I can't see anything. Any fix for this as well?
I'm using ChompSMS on my Sprint EVO and love it, but after I answer my text message, the notification stays in the task bar until I pull down the task/notification bar and "clear it". I'm running froyo and when in my standard factory messages app, press "menu" but there's no "settings." When using my standard factory message app, after I view and/or answer a message, the notification in the task bar goes away. But with ChompSMS, it doesn't, thus requiring me to remove it manually (I'm also running call notification so it beeps at me every two minutes until I clear it manually). Any way to stop messages from appearing in the notification bar? Or is that mandatory for my "call notification" to work? Any way to make chompsms clear the notification after viewing and/or answering the text?
Go to the stock message app and uncheck received notification. Use chomp settings for your notifications.
is there a way to do this? i want to hear a beep/vibrate but i don't want any notification window. is it really that hard to customize without downloading handcent or another sms app?
In Messages app, go to the "All messages" screen, press <-- (back arrow) button if neccessary. Press "Menu" button, tap "Settings", look for "Received notification", make sure this is unchecked. Below it is "Play notification sound". make sure this is checked.
I did that, and it shows sound/vibrate checked however it greys it out when i uncheck notifications. it is silent when i do this.
I've installed Go SMS on my Desire Z and want to make it the default messaging app, but I can't find the existing messaging app to disable it.
From reading around, I understand the instructions to be:
Go to Settings -> Applications, then select the Messaging appliation. Scroll down and select 'Clear Defaults'.
But if I select the "Messages" application the "Clear Defaults" button is disabled.

You don't disable the app itself, you just open Messages (the default app) and disable the notifications in Settings. Then turn on notifications in the SMS app you want to use.

I am assuming you are getting double notifications from the built-in messaging app and GO SMS?
open up your stock messaging app from your app drawer and get into the main screen. from there, hit the "Menu" button to bring up the additional options and go into "settings". in there, you can disable retrieval capabilities as well as notification settings.
Alternatively, I believe you can remove the stock app altogether by using Titanium.
According to GoSMS instructions, do not remove messaging app as it gives GoSMS better functionality. Just turn off notifications on the original messaging app. On other apps that use SMS, such as Contacts, if you cleared defaults, you should have a choice now of what messaging app to use. Choose GoSMS and that becomes the default SMS for that app.

Try Handcent.
I recently noticed a problem when I click the "Complete action using" dialogue allowing me to choose between Viber or my dialer. I select my phone dialer and the "Always" option, but it doesn't matter if I set it to always it will appear every time I try to make a call from within an app, Chrome, email, text messaging app, etc.
I tried uninstalling Viber and reinstalling with the same results. Tried clearing defaults for all apps in Application Manager to no avail.
It appears to be a bug. Any ideas how to fix this?

Same stuff...tried xposed and so on..no luck. ..Uninstaller of viber is the only solution
Same here. Every time, no matter if I press 'always', it asks if I want to use Skype, phone, or some 'avast number validator'
