Hello all, I can't seem to figure out how to disable the stock messaging when using Handcent. I recieve messages in both apps. I just want Handcent to be the only one.
Thanks

I believe you need the stock messaging app for Handcent to work. Go into settings for the stock messaging app and uncheck notifications to prevent double notifications.

How to disable stock sms?????
I downloaded GO SMS and need to disable my stock somehow so I stop getting double messages. Any tips?

Well normally you won't. You CAN go in and disable SMS notifications via the Messaging app directly so you don't get double notifications.
You CAN delete the APK out of system/apps if you have root, but most SMS Apps piggyback off the stock Messaging program so it is ill-advised.
Just disable notification from stock and use GO SMS. Ignore the stock app (or Hide the icon if using Launcher Pro).
Awesome! It worked. Have a good day.

Go SMS doesn't need the default SMS to work. The default SMS can be frozen or deleted or do as you have done.
Need help with my Lenovo S720

Get titanium backup and freeze the SMS app. That's a system app so I think you'll need to be rooted in order to do it but I'm not positive.

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...?

I use handcent also (Great App btw) and always uninstall the stock mms app. No sense in having two and it frees up space..just saying
Hi i am using miui rom 4.0.3 galaxy 3 ,i installed chomp sms but every time ii get a message the stock message counts it as unread even though i read it in chomp ,i get a count in lock screen and in stock message icon
Things i did
-i disabled stock notification
-i even back upd stock message and uninstalled it but after that i can't able to receive SMS so i restored it again
So please if anyone knows any solution help me :-(
I have a similar thing with my 'low space' icon in my notification bar which drives me mad, I just rooted my phone and found some apks that allow me to get rid of certain notifications.
Hope this helped

If you turn off all message notifications in stock Messaging, does it also disable notifications in Chomp SMS? If not, you could just do that
I have disabled all the notifications in stock MMS apps, also, and still get the unread message count. I guess you can remove the stock mms app from your homescreen so you don't have to see it. lol. I guess its a bug of HTC's...
actually the problem is with miui , it happens only with miui other roms just work fine
Anybody figured this out? I also prefer Chomp SMS over the stock Messaging app in MIUI. The double notification is driving me insane!
You should be able to delete the stock messenger. Worked on my lg thrill. Just be sure you have a replacement. Not sure if it should be installed first but i did. No problems.

download systemapp Freezer or any app which can freeze system app. You need a rooted device. After installing the app you have to go to system apps and there you can freeze the stock message. Thats the i'm doing it on VK rom ( using Pansi SMS)

When I froze the stock messaging app using Titanium Backup, I stopped receiving text messages altogether.
This is the one thing that makes me miss CM7!

I'm using miui. When I was using cm7, I didn't have this problem. I could disable the notifications in the stock messaging app just fine.

Hi, I have Go SMS (Verizon Galaxy S3 running official JB 4.1.1) but I'm looking for a simple SMS/MMS alternative. It should have SMS/MMS capabilities, quick reply pop up and emoji support. I really want to use chompSMS because it's pretty without any themes and has easily accessible emoji BUT it force closes when I try to send an MMS. Help?
Dear Silvares,
Why don't you just start using WhatsApp? It's an amazing app, just like a blackberry messenger for every device. You'll love it.

Ankur
