Is there a way to get the mms.apk from the MIUI rom working on cm6 or sense?
I dont like the stock messaging app on either aosp/sense and i hate that handcent has ads/ad bar.
While im asking, what about the vibrant mms.apk as well.
If impossible, delete this thread.

try donloading the MIUI/vibrant ROM of your choice and see if the messaging app works

i have and they wont install. i tried using the auto-sign tool as well, which let me install, but FC'd every time.
It needs to be ported to the specific phone you're using unless you mod it to work off the original sense SMS app, similarly to how handcent SMS works.

No, the Samsung SMS app is not the same app. It's an app that samsung actually developed just for their phones.
You can flash a MIUI Rom and then download a galaxy s theme. You can apply the theme to the SMS app only if you wish.
GO SMS or other sms apps probably have an SGSII theme
Is there any reason it couldn't be just installed like a normal app, or at least via adb as a system app?
Edit: I mean the sgs 2 app.

Because it was coded by Samsung for Samsung phones. Simply installing the APK will likely result in force closes whenever you try to open the app.
Unless it's coded with something where it must utilize something that only a Samsung phone has, sort of like an OEM BIOS check, there shouldn't be any FC's. If someone will extract and post the apk, I'll install it on my phone and text it.

I highly doubt that it will work, it will more than likely force close everytime u try to open it. If it was as simple than just installing the apk a lot of people would have the sms app of different phones.
I'm pretty sure to get it working on the g2x u would need to edit some stuff to make it function properly.

Won't work. It's tied into Samsung's TW UI. The apk. will do nothing. Best advice is to go with Go SMS and use the SGS2 theme. Or you can change the colors around yourself to match what you want.
Changing the Colors
How can I change the Colors? thanks
Well one of the things I hate most is the ugly white in the MMS.apk..Of all the silly options like weather in pulldown etc thats included in CM9/AOKP I was hoping we could at least get a black background option but I guess its more important to see what temp it is outside or to toggle your swagger on/off.
So if you're tired of the ugly white MMS.apk thats clearly neglected then I have the mod for you. This is a transparent modded MMS.apk that is build off travp624's new Mms.apk which combines the best of cm9 and AOKP.
I hope you enjoy this..Just flash the zip in recovery or manually push the apk.
Thanks Section
killabyte at Rootzwiki for his guide because without it I wouldn't have been able to do it.
travp624 at rootzwiki for his new MMS base to use..He did a great job of combinging the best options of cm9 and AOKP.

did you set correct permission after push?
Ive tested this on latest cm9 nightly, AOKP37/38, Paranoid v0.2 and Asylum v09
set permission like all other apps in /System/apps...wrong???
edit: old sms.apk had same permissions...
what to do???

if thats not working go back to a working default one and try the flashable zip.
I´m on Nightly 20120603

My skill hasnt quite reached that level but I would hopefully love to make black/trans background as options in settings.
sounds great I´m waiting
Thank u!
Sweet! You are the man.
Unfortunately, I'm on a Skyrocket and the most recent AOKP build at the moment is b37. Figured I would try it anyways and neither pushing it manually or flashing the zip would work. I'm guessing there will be an update for my ROM here very shortly and I will try again.
btw, do you happen to know why it is that no one seems to be able to make the dialer or contacts transparent on CM9/AOKP? I've been trying to figure out how do to this for awhile and it seems like the only mention of this that I come across is in your Mixer ICS thread about how it's not possible yet. Do you happen to know what the issue is by any chance?
Okay, I'm on a b38 build of AOKP and this app is still refusing to install. Any ideas why that might be?
This is the ROM I'm currently on:

Awesome mod, works great on todays cm9 build.

Hey, nice job.
I just tried to instal/push, but it gets black background, instead of nice themed.
But I need to ask if you can modify that app, to enable inserting new lines in an SMS?

It is now an option in the settings menu for the app in CM9. It's under "soft keyboard type."
I made an hdpi version of this based on the new CM9 Mms.apk but I'll wait until MrDSL gives the okay to post it or let him post it.
Is this compatible for DXLP9? because i install it thru root explorer and my stock sms is gone.

No this will only work with CM9/AOKP or any AOSP variant.

I just installed this on the latest CM9 and it works and looks great! It looks a LOT better than the stock CM9 one. It's just a shame the vibration pattern option is missing nice work though.

next version will have that option back..hopefully tonight.
Great Work !
Maybe possible some variants like 20% transparent only or stock line partitions instead of bubbles but in subtle dark form (grey-blue ics style) ...
Would love to have those ... even if it means donating
Another edit I recommend is to move the bubble arrow (pointing to the avatar) from bottom to top ... reason being for large messages or bubbles the arrow move down (away from avatar) and doesnt really give that feel ... if on top, they will always point to the avatar irrespective of message size !!
thanks MrDSL for this messaging transparent. i have been use your mixer theme too, downloaded it from playstore... nice theme also.! :good:
Just wanted to bring this to people's attention - a dark theme for the stock ICS SMS app that I came across in the I9000 forum. It works for me (on AOKP). There are other options as well (e.g., bubbles, different app icon).

Thanks, man! The default ICS sms app is pretty ugly, IMO. Especially when my phone is themed black/green.
Thanks! worked perfect! now to throw my touches in it and reflash!
Thank you so much. Works flawlessly. That is my least favorite part about ICS roms so far is the ugly sms.
Great find!
How do you flash this through CWM? AFAIK, .apk files aren't installed through CWM.

I have no clue. I simply pushed it there using Root Explorer.
I was wondering if it is possible to get stock ICS/JB sms app to work in sense? I like the cleaner look of the AOSP sms.

So I can just push any mms.apk?
You can simply install this from the play store (you have to disable notification of sense messaging app)

Anyone bothered or attempted this at all? Any ideas? Everything else on my phone is black, but then when I open my Gallery, BAM! White background! I've been using QuickPic for a while, so I didn't really care, but I'd really like to start using the stock Gallery. Anyone care to tackle inverting this?

Amalgamation lol. And yes that includes Dialer and Contacts, although I am using Google Dialer, which is EXACTLY like ours except it has the Google caller ID/search. I found inverted Google Dialer and Contacts in the Nexus 5 Themes & Apps forum, and one of the guys in there was kind enough to fine tune it for my Moto X. I also managed to find the old BAKED Mms.apk with full theming capabilities. Then I used a combination of GravityBox KK and XBlast in Xposed to black out the framework and SystemUI. I get most of my other inverted apps from Kryten2k35 (creator of UltimaROM) and Team Black Out. It took some work, and definitely some cherry-picking, but the result is pretty sweet. Stock rooted Moto X completely blacked out... except for my stock Moto Gallery app, of course lol.

Ahh gotcha. Well if you unlocked and rooted you could request Nitro to add to to his dark theme, but you need to be running his eclipse ROM first

Thanks, but I'm on Sprint, so none of the ROMs currently available will work 100% for me. That's why I've just been sticking to stock rooted.

Here's what I have. Be aware that I saw some people saying that one or the other wasn't working for them. Idk why. They're both working perfectly for me. Rename Dialer.apk, Dialer.odex, Contacts.apk, and Contacts.odex to .bak. Then move the ones I've uploaded to /system, fix permissions to rw-r--r--, then move to /system/priv-app. Should be all good.

I've tried to get contacts to work so many time and it never does. I've given up. Dialer works great though. A black he gallery would be nice to. Inverted nearly everything one my moto.

The contacts.apk is fickle. I KNOW that one works, because I've managed to install it twice. But I did also have some trouble in between those two installations where it wouldn't show up. Idk what the actual issue is. I just kept at it until it worked. My best advice is to keep trying it with various combinations of rebooting, wiping cache and/or dalvik. All it takes is getting lucky one time and once the install actually sticks, you're laughing.

I've got QuickPic, which is, IMHO, the best 3rd party Gallery app there is. I just wanted to go stock and eliminate the need for a 3rd party gallery. Thanks though.
