[Q] - Inverted MMS app is breaking my MMS. Any way I can fix it? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I am using Genesis v1 Beta 9. MMS was working before I installed the inverted one. I found a different inverted MMS app that worked, but it was sub-par on looks and usability (wouldn't display contact names, only numbers).
When I try to send or receive mms, my signal bars gray out and the H disappears momentarily, then I am told there was an error downloading.
Is there anything I can do to fix this? Obviously the regular mms and the other inverted one got it right...but also, no one else has complained about broken mms on the forum where I got the faulty inverted mms apk.

It seems that it really is a faulty mms. I would just re-install the app. Another way is to look up another inverted mms apk. I think that eagle's blood has a dark apps with mms apk in it. Just use that, I am pretty sure it is compatible.

I tried a couple different inverted/dark mms apps without success except for the ugly one (based on GB I think). I will try the EB mms apk and see how it goes. Otherwise I guess I will go back to a 3rd party app. Thanks for the suggestion.

Fixing the sms bug?

Well, I dont have mms but when I go over my limit for sms, its converts it into mms. I my stock eclair 2.1 it would make a second sms message and send each out seperately, how do i get mine to do that...? If you i use go sms pro, the person that recieves a message longer than one page long gets **** like #$%#$%#$% Im on the superclean rom for the showcase.
Kind of lost me with your wordage but if you want to use GO SMS, under Send Settings in GO SMS check the box for splitting up long SMS messages. It should then send them as multiple SMS and not convert it to MMS.
If you're saying you've tried that and people are getting screwed up messages, then try another SMS application, such as Handcent.
I have the same problem with long messages coming in like garbage but I am just using the SMS messaging that came with the phone.
I have Showcase, Froyo, pnp v3
Yeah +2 for GO SMS, it is great and can fix your problems.

I removed the sms app that came with my mez and replaced worth handcent...I've never been back! Its great, but I'm sure go and and chomp sms etc are all better than what ships with sgs...just wish I could find a way to fix mms in aosp and I'd be set ;-)

How did you remove the stock messaging icon from the bottom of the screen?

Sending MMS Problem, come through jumbled

Hey all,
I'm running the latest Heinz 57 rom. Whenever I try to send an MMS message that is composed of words (not a picture, just a text message longer than 160 characters) from an application that is NOT the stock messaging application, it comes through very jumbled. Here is an example of what a text that was just words comes through as:
"T6 90 3Q: S$b _I4? i OI<LW(h^oGt #dn:'s5\Sib>'s5\Odn:_Mt=C hzG[1] 8zz'Qs? )b~'Q5Lw#j oI<M3 v 'U< Gjy OWs? )b GQ6O $~:_It 3 b~'Q5LO&n:_M4 o&m:_Mzm7 qZ7k5"
Anyone know what's going on here? If I send the MMS from the stock messaging application it works fine, but from Go SMS, Handcent etc it comes through like that.
Thanks!
same thing happened to me in Handcent last week
Same here

I was on H57 and having the same problem, but I'm on the EE19 update now. Don't know how to fix the problem but hoping maybe the new roms for the EE19 will work. Just happy using stock MMS for now.

[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.

ics aosp mms.apk

Hey guys, i've looked everywhere on here and rootzwiki for the ics aosp mms.apk.
Its the white version, not the inverted one. Im running leedroid 2.1.0 and I found another white version off of another website but after installing it, it won't send mms like the inverted one.
I had the regular white version before and it sent mms, but had to wipe my phone recently and lost the file.
if anyone has it and it sends mms, please upload it. thanks!
White aosp mms.apk from CM9 yesterdays build

It sends mms on cm9... idk about a sense rom.... u should be fine
Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2
haha well, i still cant send mms. idk why. Last time I just installed the white one and it worked fine without having to tweak the apn or anything.
when i try to send mms, it lets me set it up but when i hit send, it vanishes

What about when u hit back cap key after hitting send... does it show up then? Or is it like how the inverted mms is? It must be a compatibility issue with sense... idk

its acting just like the inverted mms. The message vanishes as soon as i tap the send key.
this is sooooo strange!

AOSP messaging app needs to be edited to send mms on Sense ROMs. I'm not sure what the trick is, but you can try one of these apps from Google Play..

so im a dummy haha, i installed the mms from cm9 and then i went to systems/apps and cleare the data and it works! I tried it with the black inverted version and it works too! I can send mms with both!
The only weird thing is that on the white version, the keyboard has a smiley button and I can install a modded ics keyboard that has a noseless smiley (smileys without the nose) but in the inverted version, the smiley button is an enter button and I cannot change it regardless of installing the noseless smiley button or not.
but its not a big deal, I can send pictures!
thanks glacierguy!

Where are you finding the inverted one?
Sent from my H1S using XDA Premium.
The inverted one is in thread called tweak machine in themes and apps section, it has all inverted AOSP apps.
Will try the ones linked to on market, the AOSP MMS app, inverted or not is my biggest headache by far on the One S. Send or recieve pics doesn't ever work on CM9, doesn't work on leedroid, modaco... gets stuck on "sending" for me, haven't seen that the message disappears since on a sense ROM I believe.
I got it, thank you!

Your idea to go into manage apps and clear data works perfectly! I'm now running AOSP inverted MMS on completely stock 1.84 rooted and it sends pictures no problem. Thank you.

Top one has ads, bottom one is claimed by the author probably not to work with MMS's, seems many ppl just don't use MMS (as opposed to SMS which works very well in AOSP app) Maybe that explains why so many ppl claim that AOSP MMS works for them. Are we the only guys here with a girlfriend with a medieval phone who needs MMS functionality?

Open your app manager and select the "all" tab, scroll to mms.apk and select it, then tap "clear data". Reopen your mms app and send photos. It's that easy.

gave this a whirl and adb pushed the Mms.apk from aokp milestone 6 to /system/app/Messaging+CRC_1.apk (i think thats what its called in sense for some reason haha) then went and wiped data and the emoji support is working in leedroid
Got MMS working on CM9 20120716, dunno if it was new upstream CM changes or that I changed APN settings to match what was in an old screenshot I finally found from stock HTC rom, but it works fine with AOSP app as well as the inverted 4.0.4-eng-travp264.20120602.222408 from tweak machine 1306. Attached screenshot with APN settings for Three (3)Sweden if anyone needs... Only one APN, not two as default in CM9.

lock screen sms count shortcut to 3rd party app. Possible/available?

Hey, after a few searches, I know this has been brought up elsewhere, but I'm just looking for updates.
I just changed over to handcent so I can have emojis, but now I'm realizing that the app doesn't work with one of my favorite features: the lock screen shortcut notification for sms/mms messages. What I'm looking for is some way that when you swipe that circle with the unread count for sms that it brings you to handcent (or whatever other 3rd party sms app) instead of the stock messaging app. I figure there has to be a way..
You're talking about on ICS TW(Stock setup) right? I don't believe that would be able to be done without a MOD of some sort.
I think you can do what you want, with a bit of a different look, using something like widget locker or some other lockscreen replacement app.

Thanks for the reply. Yea, ICS TW for now (synergy to be exact, not that it matters in this case). I really like the stock setup for the lockscteen, but I'll check out widget locker. I guess the best solution would be if someone made emojis work on rooted stock, but I'm not sure how much work that entails. I've only seen it available on AOSP

GoSms also has emoji support. But you'll run into the same issue with the lock screen.

I'm having trouble visualizing what you're both talking about, however I haven't used Synergy. Are y'all talking about the four lockscreen shortcuts or a widget on the lock screen in addition to the lockscreen shortcuts?

If you talking about the missed sms count to swipe to the left, dunno.
As for the sms icon/app you can change it under shortcuts where you toggle it on and off, you can click it and change it to your sms program.
Yeah, the OP wants to change where the missed message count brings him when he swipes it.
Long shot, but is there an ASOP messaging app we can use? And would that be able to be recognized as "stock"? I know ASOP has a mod for emojis

I did this on my old RAZR so maybe it's similar. What I did was rename the stock MMS to .bak then moved my preferred MMS app to system/app folder and renamed it to the stock MMS rebooted and it worked. Worth a shot, I'm on eclipse or I'd try it.

If it breaks anything you just delete the file you moved and thanks the original back to mms.apk
I have an inverted version of the stock MMS app (4.0.4-eng.tvap624.20120702.011632) and I can say that the notification that pops up on the stock lockscreen is unique to the Samsung mms app. This means notifications using any other mms app will not show up as a swipable event on the stock lockscreen. Inverted stock is a great version of the mms app. I just renamed secmms.apk (I believe) with .bak, put in the new app, renamed it as the original, set permissions, and rebooted. I have emoji support and messages on an all black background. It's nice.

I know, I'm actually using Handcent right now for emojis (didnt want to pay GoSMS just to send emojis).
It seems like lockscreen support is probably a complete no go unless someone somehow mods the stock mms for emojis (no idea how intense that process might be).
