Hello,
Does anyone know how I might be able to make my sms messaging app open using another app like gosms ?? Or maybe just replace the stock apk with another?

Just use SMS app of your choice.
If you use Go SMS just turn off notification for the stock SMS app..

How to disable stock sms?????
I downloaded GO SMS and need to disable my stock somehow so I stop getting double messages. Any tips?

Well normally you won't. You CAN go in and disable SMS notifications via the Messaging app directly so you don't get double notifications.
You CAN delete the APK out of system/apps if you have root, but most SMS Apps piggyback off the stock Messaging program so it is ill-advised.
Just disable notification from stock and use GO SMS. Ignore the stock app (or Hide the icon if using Launcher Pro).
Awesome! It worked. Have a good day.

Go SMS doesn't need the default SMS to work. The default SMS can be frozen or deleted or do as you have done.

Get titanium backup and freeze the SMS app. That's a system app so I think you'll need to be rooted in order to do it but I'm not positive.

Is there a way to send group sms on stock messaging app on cm7...
You need a third party app from the market. Otherwise u can't do it with the stock one in cm7.

Is there a way to change the default app that opens when you swipe the message icon to unlock using sgs2 lockscreen? Instead of opening messages I want to open go SMS. I know I could use widget lockscreen but I'd rather sgs2.

i thought about that too. but i dont think it is possible. i set Handcent to my defaults and it still opens the stock messaging app so i just sticked to it.
I have NEVER tried this but its an idea...
Set as auto for go sms and then delete the messaging.apk from /system/app so it force opens go Sms? Since it would be the only msg app available... Or... It coukd just FC the comand and crash... Lol idk i repeat ive never tried it i do fine with Samsung messaging

You might want to freeze the stock app and set go sms as your default one. I know Handcent has that option and then try it.
If you freeze or delete the stock messging app, you'll probably lose the ability to receive the pictures in mms messages.
I did, but once I unfroze it, mms messages received the pictures again.
i just started using handcent sms...and i love it...bit when.i get a text...and a notification...i get it twice...one thru handcent and one through messages that comes with the phone...how can i turn messages off so only handcent will get texts...and stop all these double texts...please help me...thanks in advance...

When in Handicent, click menu and choose settings, > Application Settings and Defaul Messaging.
This supresses the native Android notification.
Good luck
I did that...i selected disable...and when i get texts...i still get both notifications ...weird...?

I use handcent also (Great App btw) and always uninstall the stock mms app. No sense in having two and it frees up space..just saying
Hey everyone.
I'm customizing my stock ICS .587 Sony ROM and I wonder where can I get ICS Messaging (the one that comes with CM9) .apk and how to make it works? I've searched it all over the CM9 ROM files, but didn't find any. I've also downloaded it from Play Store, but when I receive a message both ICS Messaging and stock Messaging apps are showing me notifications what is really annoying. I tried to freeze stock Messaging app using Link2SD, but then I can't receive messages. It doesn't come to my phone. So what can I do to have ICS Messaging as my default messaging app?
In the stock messaging settings, there should be an option to disable notifications (which only disables notifications on stock, ICS messaging will still work)
