I have been using the mms.apk from I snagged from darchvanilla. So much faster... Anyone figure out how to disable the voicemail sms notifications?

Hope you have success with that. I ported the mms and email from darchvanilla to my sense roms and all was well the first day or so, then mms/sms stopped working....I couldn't type anything.
I too am a big fan of those clients, but I had to forego them and use the default ones on sense
....and to your question, I am sorry I do not know the answer.
hmm, hopefully I don't have any problems. I've had it about a week, if I have to go back I'll be bummed. So far so good though, on fresh 2.0d. I've seen other people on here doing that also though, someone gave me the idea a while back.
Just to start off the problem I am having is prevalent in all 2.1 stock sense hero roms. There is so much keyboard lag in the sense messaging app that it is pretty much useless. You really can't type the way you want too. Considering I use my phone pretty much for text messaging and music, this has destroyed my opinion of the phone. Sprint was so excited about this phone and gave up on it within 7 months. Considering all contracts last for 2 years (if you want the good upgrade prices), don't you think it would be the ethical thing to do to keep a phone updated for at least that duration. This is a $500 dollar phone that can't text message correctly.
Alright after my ranting now down to the problem. I feel like the #/160 character counter right above the send button is the issue causing the terrible keyboard lag. I rarely do texts over 160 characters so I really don't need this. I remember back in the day of my touch diamond, there was an .xml mod you could do to eliminate the character counter which sped up the texting perfectly. I have no idea how to go through all the .xml's and .pngs of the apks but I figured someone in here could help. Basically I want the character counter to be removed to see if this is the problem. I do have only prediction on, no vibrate or sound, and it still lags out of control. It happens on every sense rom I've tried (and trust me I've tried them all). This does not happen in any of the AOSP based roms such as Cyanogen and Aospmod with the stock android Mms.apk, where there is no character counter. I tried pushing that to my phone an I like it but it just doesn't match up with the rest of the sense, plus it doesn't have the message counter option on the icon which i really like. I pretty much came to this conclusion when i used both of Zen's ports, Aria and MT3G, and I had absolutely no lag when texting. Both roms have different framework i understand which doesn't allow me to push either of the MMs.apk's from either of these roms to my hero stock 2.1. I am using IcedHoneyBun with Zens' any rom Kernel right now but it happened in NfinitiFX's rom too. ONCE AGAIN I NEVER USE VIBRATE OR SOUND so please don't mention that as a fix.
I am posting the Mms.apk below. If somebody can help me I would be glad to donate.
you might want to post this on android central, Beezy420 build icedhoneybun, and he might be able to fix it for you. Although i blieve hes mostly developing for EVO now, he is still around. Post in his honeybun thread.

I know beezy built it but it has nothing to do with the rom. It has everything to do with the stock sense Mms.apk. More hero users use xda than any other site thats why i posted it here.
I *highly* doubt that a simple character counter is causing the delay. First of all, that only makes sense if the keyboard is *completely* lag-free in all other "known-good" apps.
Handcent's text messaging app also has a character count... have you tried that app?
Can you type without any lag in a basic notepad application? Make sure you have all of the same auto-correction and spelling options enabled.
HTC MMS is laggy as hell!!! This isn't "the fix" but it should help somewhat. Turn off ur notifications and auto-retrieve in stock MMS then go into your stock app manager under settings~~>manage apps and force stop Messaging. Now download either Handcent or Chomp from the market cuz they r pretty much the same. Then remove the stock messaging shortcut from your desktop if u have one just so it's outta your way. A good portion of the lag should be gone. Clocking ur cpu higher if u use a clockable kernel will help reduce keyboard lag too.

I mean my keyboard is lag free in any other application except ones that require per letter searching such as google search. I just feel like getting rid of the character counter would help a great deal just because you are absorbing a but of memory after ever letter you type. I really don't know what is the cause. I don't like chomp or handcent i've tried them both. Not as much lag but there is still some lag. I just wanted to see if this was the problem and then go from there.
I would love for someone to pull the counter out of the HTC mms app. I will also gladly donate.
...still willing to donate...
Not possible. I'm using a GSM port of the Legend 2.1 build, and there is no 160 count at all, and it runs no better/worse than the older one. (The only reason it loads faster is because I'm using Zen's Any Kernel)
anything is possible and we wont know until it happens

Except, this doesn't make much sense. MMaybe I haven't used a CDMA ROM in a while, but I distinctly remember the HTC Messaging app always being a bit sluggish.
You should try swype its great and quick as hell! =]
Has nothing to do with what you are saying. My brother has a Droid Eris with the same messaging app and its flawless. Maybe ours will get fixed in the update rolling out

on a side ntoe i really dont want to load a 3rd party sms app like to fix this one
there is only one view with the stock app.
if anyone able to post a link to the stock sms chat windows showing messages would be greatlly appreciated need to compare this and google isnt liking me atm
I just wanted to know if there was anyway that i can configure my Samsung Focus wit WP7 Root Tools to show i received a messages on the bottom of the lock screen just like the default messenger. I have the Kik in a folder tile and its getting on my last nerves i have to open Kik to see if i have a message. If it can't be done i guess I'll just take it out of the folder.
Sorry, No one has figured out how to get notifactions on the lock screen yet.. Might wanna keep an eye on the Custom Roms, they would be your best bet.
Custom Roms is that something in the future or is the future now, I'm new to all these unlock options and I'm having a blast so forgive me for sounding like a noob but I'am one, thanks.
I'm not sure if this is Ok since there is a similar thread to this but older and not quite the same. If it is wrong please remove this. Okay I have the SK4G and I love it alot, especially my hard keyboard with the special emote, search, and voice button. What I don't like is the stock messenger, it just looks and feels.......bleh. Is there any sms messenger that looks/feels better and allows me to use my special buttons? I know it's kinda "Why not just take the two seconds to type Alt : whatever? Well I like it and would like to use it is all. I've tried ICS messaging from the play store, and the different messenger from Generic Ginger before it was recently updated. I liked both of them, the Ginger one moreso but they don't allow my buttons.
Ik what ya mean I dislike the default messaging system on sk4g but its exactly what you just said bleh and stuff sorry that I don't have an answer for yah

I don't really get what you mean by using special buttons.. doesn't the stock one let you do that? I"m not sure if the other ones do but there are some apps out there that are way better with more advanced features and customizable looks.. the 2 main ones I know of are GoSMS and handcent.. so try them out!
Chompsms is the best.
