For some reason it doesn't show up in the market. Google Handcent and go into "forums" then "research" and you can download it from there. Just make sure to check the box in settings to allow non-market apps to be installed then change back when you are done

no, sorry. Not rooted, completly stock. ive searched, rebooted and looked several times and still nothing

You have to go to www.handcent.com and then to news and download the file maunally. its some kind of bug where the market place isnt listing it

It is back in the market and working great on my Evo as of today

The default app isnt to bad. Besides more customization is it really any faster or anything?

I tried Handcent and removed it right way. For some reason when scrolling up and down there is a little lag. I don't mind the default one anyway. I'm trying to install SMS popup just have to find that apk.

I have a question, I installed Handcent, and i like it, But when I get a text message, both handcent and the default mms client notify me. how can I disable the default client?

You can go to the stock settings and disable auto retrieve and notifications.

Sorry for my ignorance but ive searched through all the settings and cant find those settings. Can you point me in the right direction please.

Go into the default messaging client. Press menu. Then settings. Then uncheck received message notification.

Better yet, just uncheck everything.

anyone having issue with Handcent not sending mms? I can send with default mms program, but not with Handcent.
I can receive mms with Handcent though. Any suggestions?

Does anyone have the Handcent and Quick Settings apks?

They don't show up in the Market of the rooted stock 2.1 ROM for some reason. They are the only 2 apps I've had problems with.
Edit: Here is Handcent 3.0.
Here is Quick Settings.
Handcent link dead
When I search for handcent I find the font packs but not the actual app, very odd indeed since I think I previously was able to download it.
Edit: Here's a link that shows that the makers of the app are having a problem also.

Anyone with Quick Settings apk?

Thanks, that worked.
old .apk
Hope this is in the right place. I got a new phone and the updated handcent on the market now only auto converts to mms after message exceeds THREE message lengths. I thought i remembered it converting after it exceeded only one message length. Am I wrong? And if I am remembering correctly, does anyone have an .apk of one of the versions before the change?... preferrably the last one. Thanks.

So what are the quick settings for?
Qick Settings, as far as I see, give a shortcut to things like notification settings for handcent, but I see no area for changing auto-convert settings

Quick Settings is just an app for changing things like system volume, wifi, GPS, etc.

You have to disable notifications on the one you don't want to see notifications from. This is not the best explanation, but it's as if your messages get sent to one location where any message app can read them. Essentially, both apps are still looking for notifications, therefore, notifying you twice.
I have look

He's not talking about double notifications. He's talking about incoming messages showing up twice INSIDE of the app.

Wow, i see what you mean. That does suck. I was responding to this but decided to test for myself.
I've been using Go SMS since I got the phone last tuesday and I never had the issue. I installed Handcent and tested (now I have stock, go SMS and handcent). The very first message I sent to myself from my wife's phone I got double messages as you experienced. I sent myself five more and I did not received any more doubles. Not sure what it is, but this was the first and hopefully last time I'll see this.
Did you uninstall all the third party messaging apps and test to see if the issue goes away?

You can use Titanium Backup to freeze the default message apk. That seemed to fix the problem for me. Always backup the apk first!

[Q] HTC One S - Liquidsmooth 2.3.1

Hello everyone!
I'm with a small problem with my Htc one s.
I've flashed the LiquidSmooth 2.3.1 in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2194095
It's a great rom and i'm happy with it but i just have a small problem and i've tried to search for an anwser but with no sucess.
The limit cap on the messages app it's 160 characters, after that it turns the sms into an mms.
Can i reverse this with some .apk? (do not want another app)
Thanks in advance!
Pedro Pinto
Can't you change this in the SMS settings?

I cant find any type of SMS settings for the stock app.
In the SMS app theres two buttons one for new SMS and the other is search.
In the settings of the phone the only thing related that i find is in the security options one setting for limiting the number of SMS that a app can use.

Go to settings>interface>hardware keys and enable show action flow. That will enable you to see the menu button on the lower right hand side of the messaging app

[Q] Defaults?

I have the Verizon S7 and noticed when selecting default apps for browser, pics, video there seems to be no option for "Always" and "Just once". It's a small thing, but always like the popup with options. Any other carrier have this issue?
Don't like to go into Apps>Default app to reset things every time. Anyone know if there is a way to work around this?
Tmob is the same way. It sucks.

yeah, the wife use Zedge to change her txting notification and then realized all her notifications got changed. But when she went back to change her main notification sound the phone went straight to Zedge and didn't list the stock sounds.

Hey, after some digging I found some other Note users had this problem and use the app called "Better Open With" from the play store. Set that app as the default and it'll be a popup with choices again. Samsung tried to make this phone like Apple, we had freedom of choice dammit!
Great find! That app is the answer.

Noticed this also. Soooooo annoying. Thanks for the band-aid app suggestion above until they fix this.

Unfortunately "Better Open With" only partially solves the problem. It has a limited set of intents it listens too an misses many others. For instance if you attempt to send an email from a non-email application "Better Open With" does not show up in the list and you get the default behavior. I reached out to the author of "Better Open With" to see if he wants to open source the application so I can help to extend it. If he does not I'll have to come up with my own solution.
is Better open w/? the only solution for defaults? i've downloaded/installed it, but it never pops up.
How do we " Set that app as the default and it'll be a popup with choices again. "
Thanks

Settings -> Applications -> Default Applications -> Set as default - Locate the application currently set as the default for whatever you are trying to open and choose the "Clear Defaults" button. Now when you attempt to open the file you'll see the chooser again and can select Better Open With.
Just got an ota software update for my international g930f. Browsed around phone settings and found that the app default options r now there. I cleared all app defaults and now when I click for an external link, I get the just once or always option now.

Stock messaging app - internal link handling

Morning everyone. I've found that when someone sends me an SMS and that SMS contains an URL, the URL is handled and opened inside of the messaging app. This is a problem for me as typically there is something that prevents the page from displaying. I can tell the page loaded because when I click the X to close the page, it briefly displays the content then I'm back at the SMS. Anyone else seeing this? Is there a way to force the url to be opened in the stock Samsung browser or Chrome?
I'm wondering the same thing. Very frustrating.

You can use package disabler pro to disable Samsung voice input and then Google will be default
Hmm....I was hoping that others had the this SMS URL problem and had solved it. It's ironic I guess....Sprint sends me a URL regarding the Note 7 recall....I can't read it because it opens inside of the SMS messaging app. I had to Copy the url into the Samsung Browser (which I really like) to see the recall info.
Well, if anyone should pass through this thread...and had the issue but resolved it, please let me know. Thanks
You can also just hit the 3 dot menu and select open in browser. Its not a solution but its easier then copying the link.
