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...?

[Q] Help with MMS!

I have Chomped SMS. It doesn't do MMS? Or it doesn't do MMS on MY phone... It shows the pic in the screen but it never sends (called friend to confirm). I've got EB Froyo 1.05 with Faux's Kernel and Honeycomb theme.
Superior app
Handcent SMS is superior to Chomp SMS.
Handcent just works. Sadly to say.
I like Chomp's look and everything, but it has these little bugs..
Handcent has been working just fine and dandy.
Handcent user here, but it has bugs of its own, I sometimes miss texts, or fail to download the MMS for some reason, etc..throw in a few multiple texts here and there, but overall it's the best SMS app I have seen
+1 handcent is the best imo also...

I have handcent and like it for the most part but I absolutely cannot send mms with it, I just get the constant rotating circle next to the message. So everytime I have to go to stock messager to send mms and it always sends immediateley.

Notification tones

Anyone else have issues with zedge notification tones not sticking? I have one I downloaded selected but when I get an email or text a default system one plays. Any ideas?

You have to manually set those by going into each and apply it in their settings. Like for the text, open up messages, click menu and go into settings and change the tone all the way at the bottom of the menu. Same applies for the email

That worked, thanks man.

That's odd. My boss has an infuse and he doesn't have to set them each manually. He's able to just set his notification tone in either sedge or in settings and it works for texts and email.

Happened to me too. I set the one in settings, but it only worked for general notifications, not text. That one I had to go the setting in the message app itself, which I thought was weird.
But then I thought about it and it makes sense. If you want to have multiple sounds for different types of notifications.

Native MMS app

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 do i auto retreive mms messages?

i want to know how to enable it and what settings is it under. Thanks for the help.
Should be in the settings of whatever SMS app you are using.

i have go sms pro. But it doesnt auto retrieve the picture. i want to know where it is in the stock massaging application.
This should have been posted in Themes and Apps for more responses.

Aeon rom 4 tab lockescreen? 'S

I just installed the Aeon rom v1.4 and I love the 4 tab lockscreen, but I can't figure out how to change the message tab to use handcent instead of the default messaging app. I am running my phone with straight talk and not att so the stock messaging app does not put the messages in the correct order received and sent for some reason.

What if you turn the notification off for the default? Settings within the default msg app.
Right section wrong thread but your issues will get addressed kk.

That may require a setting default mms app, rename his mms app to stock app or hack into the locks and make it call a different program than the default mms. Nun knows best.
For one person with a request though, idk..

I have set handscent as default and put it in my dock, and nothing. And I am not experianced enough to go into the files and change defaults yet. I would have no idea where to begin. I have explored it but I do not want to screw anything up. Already soft bricked my phone trying to flash this rom. And now I realize HOW easy it is to use cwm. I'm learning. Just need some guidance.

That was my initial thought as well - if the locks app is calling the stock filename, what about renaming the Handscent app to that filename? Seems it would call it, then.
How would I go about renaming handcent with es file?
