I have been using the mms_cyan.apk
Found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901216
And have been quite happy with it, with a couple exceptions. 1) It does not show the notification on my lock screen like my stock mms app does and 2) found out last night than anytime I go to send an audio or video file, the app FC's. If anyone could help me either figure out how to resolve these 2 issues or if it's too complex for someone who had little to no experience working w/ apks perhaps resolve it and tell me what had to be done so that I can learn from the experience I would be greatful.
I have included my stock mms.apk, the mms_cyan.apk, as well as my framework-res.apk in the zip file.
Thank you in advance.
Edit: I am using a LG-C800 on 2.3.4 if that matters
Any idea guys? And this may need to be moved to the Android specific forum?

Maybe the mms.cyan is missing files from your stock mms.apk

But where would I begin to try and resolve the issue? I'm pretty computer savvy, but programming and the like has never really been my strong suite; although not afraid to try if pointed in the right direction.
The files u downloaded, r they designed for your phone?

I haven't been able to find anything designed for my phone yet. Newer model. But everything works aside from being able to send audio or video sends pictures fine.
That might be why then, maybe

Actually, just tested it and I can't send any mms with this app... can receive just fine though. Where would I have to start to make the mms_cyan compatible? Cause the stock mms app sucks horribly, cannot even choose what folder to download attachments to. Really like the one I'm using but the limitation of not being able to send an mms just isn't a viable option...

Ok so after looking at the logcat I'm seeing that for picture messages it's being denied by the server for some reason... as for the problem with adding audio and it crashing I'm still at a loss... any dev able to possibly offer some insight?

if it worked in ur phone place the apk in the rom and reload it, if never worked, the apk might not be for your phone
Maybe the mms.cyan is missing files from your stock mms.apk
Any idea as to where to start? After decompiling both apks with autoapktool and looking in the folders the stock has a lot more folders inside, but don't know where to begin narrowing it down as to where the problem may lie. Thanks in advance...

what its mms.cyan can change skin?
It appears to be a modded stock mms.apk with the option of a white or black background and with the black background the names on the main conversation screen as well as 'new message' are colored cyan as well as the default contact image is modded, really like the app and wish I could get some help to mod it to work on my phone properly...

I'm in about the same boat as you as far as skills go. If we can get dev attention to a ClorkworkMod recovery, then CyanogenMod (which I assume is where your preferred MMS comes from, judging by the name) opens up to us. The MyTouch Q is supposed to get an OTA update to ICS second quarter of this year, so it can definitely run the latest stuff-- even when bloated down with T-Mo apps and CarrierIQ. It's really a neat slider.
Yeah, after tweaking the phone some its pretty quick and love the fact its a slider... keep checking into the post hoping they will figure out cwm for the c800 but no such luck so far.
And judging from the original post where I found the mms_cyan, the OP has a lot of posts for HTC so thinking it was from one of those roms... but having no luck so far figuring out where to start so I can mod it to work fully on my phone.... not that I have any programming knowledge anyhow but... lol

Almost hate to bump such an old post of mine, however still have been unable to figure out how to modify my prefered mms.apk to work as the stock mms does. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tried the alternative messaging programs out there and none are what i'm looking for...

ok so i know you can usually just use titanium backup to remove the respective lockscreen apk to get rid of the custom lock screen on android phones, that doesnt work on galaxy phones though. I HATEthe galaxy lockscreen. ive found some info on removing the samsung lockscreen from the captivate/vibrant/epic, but nothing on the 4G. Does anyone want to try to tackle it? Ive read somewhere that the same method wont work on the 4G.
There have been a few lockscreen threads but not just to remove the default lockscreen on the 4G.
thanks for looking
bump....anyone?
Its not that simple. You have to modify a lot of framework behaviors. I'm working on a mod but I'm stuck with one file and will probably contact hawkx to see if he can give me a hand.

thanks for the response, I know it isnt easy, I was wondering if anyone started tackling it yet. I found a flashable zip for the vibrant and epic, but we havent got to that point on the 4G yet. Hopefully someone can figure it out..im sure im not the only gs4g user who hates the lockscreen!
Actually, if all you want is the Aosp lockscreen, it 1 word that needs to be changed.

This problem plagues tons of android 2.2.x devices...captivate and atrix included. They located the problem and patched it in CM7 for SGS. When we get it ported, the problem will go away.

Does anyone have problems receiving MMS pictures from iPhone users?? I tend to get a long message saying "one or more of the message components have been deleted by MMS Adaptation. Either the message was too large or the components were unsuitable for your terminal."
I used to get a similar message on the Atrix. Why the hell does this happen??
Not an Android issue, it's AT&T wanting to give you a "multimedia experience" which annoys the hell out of me. Once the ROMs come out, it'll be gone. It was the same with the HTC Aria, Samsung Captivate, and HTC Inspire 4G... With my last phone, Inspire 4G, any rom applied broke the play-button thing, so photos just showed up like on normal phones.
Why must AT&T try to get their hands all over everything? It's so annoying.
First thing I did when I got my phone was delete the stock samsung mms app and replace it with the stock aosp mms app
I use SUFBS but root explorer does the same....

I am running stock 2.3.6 and it is rooted. I am wanting to change the icons for some of the stock apps. I have done this plenty of times before with a couple of my other phones and i know how to do this. I am not used to Motorola software and i am having a hell of a time locating where these icons are stored at. I'm wanting to change the Text Messaging app icon and the Email app icon. Usually they are in the system/app with the app itself. I have dug around in this location and can't seem to come up with anything. If someone could give me a location of these two icons i would greatly appreciate it.

I tried to change the browser icon and ended up with the apk in the system but missing from the home launcher and couldn't get it to show up at all so i had to flash back to 2.3.5 and start over.

Using that app is for guys like me who have no intention of learning the guts of Android, but you seem like a guy who wants to learn that stuff so it makes sense you'd go about it the way you did. Glad it worked for you though, it's a pretty nifty app that can be used for more than just changing icons too, def a must have for any Android user IMO.
I like to actually do personal theming with roms by actually tearing a rom apart on my computer and changing things. I really don't like just getting things off of the market to do theming. It's a little too easy . Since we are limited with the a2 as far as roms go i haven't really got into it as much as i did with my infuse or my captivate. Once i start learning more about motorolas software ill get back into it. Thanks again for your help, that app is pretty good.

I have another question regarding the apk itself this time. I am a big swype person and I have a big collection of swype apks that are themed. I am wanting to get rid of any traces of Swype from being a system apk, that way i can install any of the swype apks that i store on my sd card without any hassle. Now, i have uninstalled the stock swype, i got rid of the com.swype file that is in the data/data folder. The phone still sees it as a system apk. Does anyone know where there might be a file or a text telling the phone that it is a system apk?

Here i present to you the original, complete and unabridged android Froyo launcher. works, and looks like the real thing. its system name is: com.android.launcher so it is legit. i don't take any credit for it because i did not make it. i simply found it on filecrop.com named launcher2.apk
It is in .rar format, its compressed inside of it. so please get either the unrar app for your android, or get winrar archiver for your computer if you haven't already.
How to use: once app is installed, get a launcher changer of the android market, clear the defaults, and press the home button as your default. if it does not work, i am not responsible but i have been using it for couple months now and it works fine so don't be scared.
Have at it, and enjoy!
oh ya, forgot
PLEASE THANK IF U LIKE
the other android froyo launchers that you find on these forums dont work (for lg optimus one series and most other phones), already tested them out.
PLEASE REPLY AND GIVE FEEDBACK ON WEATHER OR NOT IT WORKS, AND DESCRIBE THE EXPERIENCE OF USING IT.
It works on my sense 3.5 Rom .
Did u not have the stock group, it was replaced by HTC, just like LG put LG home on mine and got rid of stock.

"Suggesting" is not the same as "advertising". You're clearly doing the latter. And that's not allowed
OK u know what, drop the subject, if u just want to pick a fight go outside and punch someone in the face. But putting a link on the signiture and suggesting is a form of advertising. Or do you not understand that. Clearly, it seems you do not.

Greetings, I am running scv7 here and its OK.
The one gripe I have is the mms is broken. Has some one out there ripped the stock MMS and SMS from the leak? And compiled it to a apk?
Also sorry if this is in the wrong section. I did not want all the noob posts in Q&A running this over.
Thanks so much!

Does MMS work on GoSms or others? Or does it not work at all? Does your carrier use separate APN'S for data and MMS?
It works with 3rd party SMS apps. I really hate extra application and I enjoy the ics /moto stock SMS application.
Can I just get that app? Is there a way to system dump it? This is something I don't know.

Okay so it's not an APN issue it's a bug with the MMS app in SCV7. You SHOULD be able to rip the APK from the leak, don't quote me on that as I am basically talking out of my rear end since I don't have my A2 yet, tho there is no harm in trying and the worst thing that could happen is Android wont install it. This APK is from "Blur_Version.55.28.37.MB865.MERetail.en.06", it probably wont work but try it. If it doesn't work, someone who is on the leak can try to rip the Messaging.apk or MMS.apk using Titanium backup or something similar, it should be in system/app. I'm getting my A2 tomorrow but can't promise if I'll install the leak tomorrow.
