I'm not trying to be rude, really, but you need to use spell check or something because your spelling & grammar create an impression that makes you seem child-like & lazy, and in turn could turn some people away. I know I reached for the back button before I even finished reading. Just something to think about.
I'm pretty sure there's not a way to do what you're asking. You could do the opposite, use handcent or chomp as your main messaging app and blacklist the conversation. Do note that this will make all communication with that number invisible in the app & you will not receive notifications (you will from the stock sms app unless you turn them off) until you take them off of the blacklist.
An easier solution: don't delete your text messages. If you feel like you have to, make a plan to delete only every day or two (or however long you prefer) and do a backup prior. I hope you realize that text messages use very little space & there's no real reason to delete them immediately unless you're trying to hide them. Just think before you act... and problem solved.

You would need a different version of the SMS/MMS Arcsoft client.

As stated, you'd have to install a different version of the arcsoft software that does this. Microsoft (Arcsoft???) has decided that combined is better and all the newer versions have went this way (personally I like it combined myself, but it does catch me off guard when I get what I think is an SMS with no text then notice the tiny pic icon and realize its really an MMS). Just like the standard with WM6.1 is the threaded messaging (my opinion on that is still out. In some ways I like it, but other ways I hate it. So still trying to get used to it and not just turn it off (yet)).
Basically like back on WM5 where the left soft key in Arcsoft was to create a new message. Then WM6 changed that to be Delete and people screamed. But its still that way today and now most are used to it (or don't know any different).
Ive researched this topic quite a bit and have found that it cant be done unless the version of arcsoft mms is cooked into the rom. If it isnt, even after installing the older version over a new one, the combined messaging AND threading will still be in affect, it might also throw off your text and mms messaging entirely.
I may be wrong, but this is what Ive read in other threads and forums. If it can be done, Id love to know, because shortcuts to new mms wont work without this. and more importantly for, sms chat will stop intercepting my mms mesages

You are spot on! If you like it splitted up then you need a rom that does this for you, if I can make a small suggestion, give my rom a try (SMS & MMS are split up!) it's called DCSv1.7
the problem is PIM backup doesnt restore your MMS if you used a rom before with different sms and mms folders so now i dont have none of my MMS backed up on the tilt... sad
Separate!

MMS problems
I downloaded a sms threaded text cab for my att tilt- my problem is that i can't send or receive MMS messages anymore. i've been looking for days to find a way around this because i love the threaded text, but i NEED my MMS capabilities. can you point me in the right direction or do i just need to abandon my threaded txt and revert back to the original to get my MMS back?

You need to run connection wizard, or your connection settings cab again after installing the mms cab.

[Q] SMS Issues

I have recently got the X10i after yrs of a N95 ( sorry ), am doing my best to like the phone and am giving it every chance. I have lurked on this site and last week I rooted the phone and made it more personnal for me, thanks to the developers and those who provide the info for rooting.
I quickly removed the moxier stuff and also the messaging app but I am having issues with handcent sms, I wanted it for group/bulk texting tbh but it seems I have to restart the phone to get it to send a text to a group which has got 18 recipients.
Once the phone has started up I can send a group text no probs but the second group text will send to 1 or 2 of my contacts but the rest then fail, so I then restart the phone and resend the text and they get delivered, I have tried chompsms, grouptext and groupui, but each one gives me the same problem.
Has anybody got any ideas or another app I could try to resolve this issue ?
maybe it could be that the sms apps you use need (or work thanks) the main messaging app which were installed on the phone, the one you uninstalled.

I dont think it is that to be honest, I think it is more to do with the amount of contacts in the list, so I am hopeful that somebody confirms this and also gives me a better option.

Actually this could be true, as you should not remove core system applications, such as messaging.
so, you can try resetting your phone using Update Service software on your pc. I tried searching for an SMS app in my mobile folder to share with you, but there are several files that may be connected togheter, about messaging, and I am not able to choose the right one (or ones) to share.

Any settings for audible reminder of SMS or email?

My wife is replacing her Samsung Highlight with a new MT4G, which we can all appreciate is a significant upgrade. One feature her Highlight did, was remind her that she had unread SMS text every 5 minutes or so. For her, phone in purse, car, whatever, it's rather helpful. Can I set something similar on her ny MT4G? The LED blinking isn't gonna cut it for her. And I don't want to tell her the Highlight can do something better than the MT4G! Thanks

Not sure about the built-in app, but Handcent SMS can do this and has some pretty nice other features as well.
ChompSMS also has the feature but that program's buggy. It causes the mms service to crash on my mt4g when I receive a picture mms and also causes the laucher to go all black on my wife's vibrant.

I'm confused how handcent would integrate with how MT4G handles messages...it seems like MT4G integrates SMS with facebook/twitter and your contacts. Would handcent mess with this???
It doesn't completely replace the built in messenger, texts are still accessible from the builtin app as well as from handcent. You just install handcent and then configure the builtin one to stop notifying on new messages. All the account links remain in place.
How about something for email? I don't SMS but I would like reminders about email received.
And calls missed, how about for that? I used to have reminders on a older non-smart phone and miss it.
I checked for other programs by those who did Handcent SMS, but nothing there. What can be recommended for (reliable and hopefully very configurable) reminders?

Receiving vCard on Android

I am having difficulty viewing a vcard received via text message. My phone recognizes it's an MMS but views it as a Multimedia file and tries to play it.
My phone (EVO) is rooted running Cyanogen 7.0.1.2 and I'm using the builtin messaging app. I don't want to use handcent or an alternative messaging app.
I have taken a screenshot of what I'm experiencing
There doesn't seem to be a solution to this..
android cant get vcard i think.
someonew please build a fix or hack for it ...
its been too long that noone could solve it
vCard
That's not true Miui can send and receive vCards and I have used other roms including those based on Cm10 that could do the same I think you need a modded mms.apk Easiest would be to use Miui.
nshedbi artistic
iam saying about vcard sent as sms (not mms)
when my friends sent vcard as sms b y their nokia,sony etc i dont even receive that sms in my mobile .
and thee no option to sent sms either ...
is there any solution for this ?
go sms
Have you tried Go sms or Handcent?
yaa i had tried both but no use
I've been searching forever for an app that will handle Vcards sent to my S3 via a Blackberry or iPhone. The MMS comes in blank on my text app (8ms messsaging) or even stock messaging app, but there's no way to view the vcard attachment.
Enter "Save MMS Attachemtns" app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobappli.savemms
Opening it brings up a list of all of your MMS messages within your text threads. The interface isn't very advanced and I haven't played with it enough to be able to select just one MMS, but regardless...clicking save will export all MMS to a folder on your phone entitled "SaveMMS"
From there, you'll need to delete the extra extension text after ".vcf"
Now click on it to open with your vcard handler app. I use DW Dialer as it's way better than stock Google dialer. It takes 8 seconds to respond after clicking, but it will import to your contacts.
This is far from an elegant fix, but if you receive vcards for work like me, you need something that will work, no matter how involved.
If anyone has a better way, let us know but a big thanks to the dev for writing this.
Hi guys.
I've been working on vCards on Android for few years. If you wanna check my app bizCard Manager. It supports sending and receiving (importing) MMS vCards too.
But to be honest, many current davices has MMS vCards suport built in nowdays.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE (SHV-E110S) SMS

My phone was locked to T-world, but it's now rooted and ready to go! BUT i have one problem and that is SMS. I'm limited to a maximum of 80 letters. obviously that is not even close to what I want and almost all my texts are longer than 80.
I need to type in my own phone number too, seriously annoying.
My question is..
is it possible to just replace the whole SMS bit from my phone with the one in the regulare GS2? If this is possible (fingers crossed), how do I do that? I'm a n00b with android and the entire operating system, so go easy on me .
I tried various kinds of SMS applications, however none of them work. With the stock SMS app I can send/receive sms, but with the other apps it's not working at all.
Another tip I got was to find a jolly old phone and type in my phone nr there in the settings as a simple "hack", but I tried a few phones but can't seem to find this option in any of them.
My phone is rooted, and ready to be dug into.
Please help me out guys (and gals)
I really want a fix for this, please help
sms
I was able to get Go SMS PRO (free on Google Play Market) to work and I can send 160 character messages if that will help you out.
handcent sms
download handcent sms app from google play open it go to settings>send message settings>scroll down and you will see this option ''if you are using a samsung'' and check this option.its working with me.
