I would like to replace Hero's sms messaging with the sms messaging app in Htc magic rom. Any way to adb the app or is it impossible? Would appreciate advice on how to do it. Thank you~!
Hi,
I'm an avid user of SMS Popup, mainly because while the threaded SMS in Handcent is a good thing, I think it's ugly as hell... and being iPhone-esque doesn't mean it's pretty (as some might believe)
Has anyone had experience with other SMS'ing apps that really deliver the goods...?
I think the standard X10 threaded SMS in the actuall contact's details is great - it looks clean and professional, but switches to the boring Android standard when you want to reply, which is a real shame...
SMS Popup works for me because it adds that extra something without redoing something that the Xperia already does, but just doing it uglier like Handcent (sorry to diss the app so much, but I just can't understand what people see in it)
AndroSMS would have been my next favourite, as it does a nice and clean threaded SMS, but it's a little buggy... shows messages as being unsent in the main android messaging app, and does that ugly thing a lot of apps seem to do on the x10, where the borders on popups/buttons are all funky...
I prefer chompsms!!

I thought Handcent SMS is the most popular SMS apps?
What is the difference between Handcent and Chomp sms app?
Handcent looks better than the default one, but I am not a big fan of it either. I checked the screenshots of Chomp and they looked similar to Handcent.
Handcent is by far the best and the most complete SMS app for any phone or platform. Ive had Symbians, iPhones, WindowsMobile and Handcent is better than the others combined. Developer is obviously a genius and it is free !

Is there a way with a rooted s off phone running cm7.0.3.1 to get support for iPhone emoji? I don't care about typing them, I just want to view them

iphone sucks.
IPhone does suck, I agree. But its annoying to see a bunch of boxes

you can install handcent for your messaging app and then install the handcent emoji plugin and can view/send them
Ahhh. Ok, I already have handcent. Ill get that. Thanks a bunch. Any way to extend that to other programs?

No Prob, I don't know of any way to extend it. Would be cool though
Go for GoSMS. It's the best sms app for Android. It has plugin for Emoji plus sms folders.
+1 for GoSMS
as for extending it you can try using the UOT Kitchen to make a theme, you pick which elements of the theme you want or don't want, and I know emoji is an option. not sure what they have though cause I like the stock Android ones. hope this helps.
If you're rooted, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=690781 for a way to get black-and-white emoji fonts.

I'm not a huge fan of the HTC messaging app an I'm kinda missing the vanilla gingerbread one. Anyone know a way of installing the vanilla one without root?
I've downloaded the mms.apk but the HTC app is installed under the same name so you can't uninstall/update it without SU. Is it possible to somehow repackage it as a new application that would run separately?

handcent sms works really well...
I like chompSMS, its a really solid alternative SMS app..... but I've actually been using the HTC messaging app lately, I love the way the conversation screen looks with the 3D sort of threads...
Anyone here can recommend a non-laggy sms replacement app for the note's default one? GoSMS Pro is good, but it's laggy, and i rather some more feedback from the forum here regarding other apps before i go and try them, namely handcent, chompsms, etc..
your input is appreciated. thanks!

I've used Handcent before, but my current favorite is Go SMS Pro.

If only we could use the stock CM7 SMS App (and dialer, for that matter)! Tried installing it, it starts but FCs when clicking Compose.

Basically I used ChompSMS and Go SMS Pro. ChompSMS is for the quick reply window which I prefer to hide the text until I press Show and Go SMS is for Private Contacts which I did not want it to show at all in any of the SMS applications.
Handcent is really good with different theme to choose from and have a widget also
Don't forget about jaxtrsms. It let's you send free sms's...
GO Sms is a good choice! Love using it
The OP already said he tried GO but was laggy... and it is very laggy. I'd like to know of something similar too but will actually run well?

I didn't notice that! Actually, another 'choice' that is super fast would be the Go Widget that comes with Go Launcher. It isn't a full-fledged SMS app, but rather a Messages widget that you can add to a homescreen. Since I started using it, I rarely use the actual messaging app on the system. You can view and reply to messages directly from the widget through a popup window. I think the only time it uses your messaging app is when sending a "new message". It is easily the fastest messaging solution out there.
I use metro messanging beta and it is smoth like hell ;-) although it looks like messanging app on windows phone 7. If u like the look try it. I love it

GoSMS is good but the the current update (v4) is a huge letdown... Lots of Bugs (themeing and color customization), no lite mode, a lil laggy... im still using the v3.72...
Thanks all. I Am trying Handcent now, and nt as friendly when coming to individual sms tones, and especially when there's no options for group sms tones
Might have to try the others listed here.. Completely uninstalled gosms even the new version is still laggy compared to Handcent
