From what I know, you'd have to upgrade to Go SMS Pro or something like that. Or you could ditch touchwiz and download AOKP or CM10 for built in emoji support.

From my experience even using Cm9/10, I could send emoji's but when someone would send to me (from an iPhone) all I could see was a blank box. Idk if it's because it's from the iPhone to an Android and emoji's are originally iphone so somehow encoded different?
I dont have cm anything unfortunately. . I used to use go sms but it wouldnt send pics half the time. Thanks tho

Maybe CM9 had emoji support, but I know that I can send emojis to my friends and receive them back on CM10 just fine. That's weird it was working for you! Maybe a carrier conflict? I'm on AT&T.

Is there any way to get the stock ICS messaging app? I'm not the largest fan of several little quirks in the SenseUI one, and am really not a fan of how it looks.
Has anyone else tried this? If so, to what success?

no. i even pulled over both the apk and odex file and it wouldn't show up.
i changed my emoticons in the Sense one and that's good enough for me. for now.

That's disappointing. I really can't stand the messaging UI, and the inability to hide the phone numbers in messages. I realize who I'm talking to, HTC... I don't need you to also list out their 10 digit phone number as well.
It's a shame, as I really love the phone, and there's no one big UI change that I dislike, it's just all these little things, like the changes in the messaging app that are really turning me off.

I'm fine with my keyboard (I use Swype), it's the text messaging app that I just can't stand.

He said keyboard, but it's actual ICS sms apps. And after using some HTC has a much better looking app in my opinion.
Yes I meant SMS not keyboards. But the ics keyboard + ics messaging looks nice. I don't mind sense UI though. Beats touch wiz hands down.

I'm using a holo stock messenging apk. don't remember where I got it from as I pulled it from my sgs2. Only problem is it doesnt send mms messages, only sms.
just drop it into system/app named mms.apk with the right permissions.
worked for me. might take a couple tries to show up.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10741863/Mms.apk
Try this! http://db.tt/suTWB1GG. Its a modded mms.apk from the Gnex with black background / white text. Works perfectly on my HTC One X.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Does anyone by chance have the stock mms.apk holo w/ white background by chance? If it was pulled from the gnex it should work in full with no problems right?
Don't quite like the black, plus I would like picture messages to work as well.
Thank You in advance

I have had gripes with the HTC MMS app, but after using a Galaxy Nexus for a while, it too shows the phone number on the message screen. I also think the HTC UI is actually better and more professional and "clean". But yeah, would be nice to try stock ICS too, but I have never been able to get it working on any ICS device other than the Nexus.
I can confirm that hartfords mms apk looks just like holo w/ black background and picture messages work.
Edit: spoke too soon.... I can receive pics and videos but for some reason can't send them...the search continues.

Thanks.

Well thats your opinion but coming from a long time iOS user they aren't that bad. They're smaller and black and sometimes they're kinda hard to figure out what the emoji is but for the most part its pretty good

Not with the stock Samsung MMS app, but I believe the stock Google MMS app supports emoji, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728308. Personally, I use the blacked out version from page 7 of the same thread, http://rootzwiki.com/topic/29460-inverted-inverted-g-apps-update-7-5-new-playstore-ver-3713-and-mms-app/. It's a bit quirky but certainly better than the Samsung MMS app.
any update on this? I actually really like the Touchwiz mms app haha but when i'm using something like instagram and someone comments with emojis, i can't see them.
EDIT: Found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792745 gonna give it a shot
bumping this since I just found this. anyone tried it?

Not built in the keyboard, but GoSMS offers emojis.
I use it without problems (Except for the new ones iOS just got with their last update)

LIFE! It's what you make out of it!
it's for 4.0 or higher i'm on 2.3.7 i have a desire the world is cruel )
but i', found a guide for modify mms.apk ... modified all things and the stock app run better (finally i've found why sms split count 70-80 char instead 160) and like i want only 1 thingh miss.. limit conversation to show last 100sms whitout deleting them... or my gf conversation (8000+ sms) fc the app...
there is a way to do this?
That's the only thing I miss from my iphone was not having to deal with character limits what app will give me this? Do any have a setting so the iphone thinks it's coming from another imesage account so I can still text all of the other folks I haven't been able to convert to android?

For those of us who really don't like SMS in Hangouts for whatever reason, what SMS app are you using and what is one of the best features on it?
Thanks
Tried go sms, handcent and chomp. Don't like any of them. Would love to see the cm, or similar, messaging app as a stand alone app for all devices.

It should work as a default sms app.

It needs to be updated to 4.4 which they said is in the works.

I'm not actually sure if it will work. It might not be compatible with 4.4 or it might be glitchy. In any case it would prob be best to just stick to hangouts. Not sure though. Anyone have any input if this will work?
8sms. Best sms app. Looks like stock, fast, and quickreply from notification shade.

not mentioned yet so I'll recommend it - sliding messaging... you do have to pay for it but it's very unique and quite a nice app
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I've installed 8SMS, set it to Standalone Mode and disabled Hangouts in Settings/Apps.
Strangely, under Settings/Wireless & networks/Default SMS, 8SMS doesn't show up. I'll be asking someone to text me soon to test that everything is working as it should be. I'll report back.
Edit: Running in Standalone mode didn't work but as soon as i deselected it i could receive SMS. Unfortunately sent messages aren't being received so i'm going back to using Hangouts for now.
I had no idea that Textra and 8sms existed until now (and I've been doing the Android thing since donut). I've been using Hangouts or the CM app, but for non rooted phones I could never find a messaging app I liked. These are beautiful and I'll be putting one on friends' phones to replace the (usually) lacking SMS stock apps.

I'm really hoping the CM stock messaging app can be ported to KitKat. I've never understood the issue people have with it. It looks great, and it functions well.
