Dude, what company would give you SMS for free? Every company wants to gain money, they won't throw their money in the faces from their users.
Send from my blazing fast Nexus⁴
Wouldn't handcent or something similar work over WiFi for SMS only? You could turn data off and use WiFi when available. No MMS though over WiFi
I cannot hold on,
I will not let go
Google voice anyone? Unlimited and free texts as long as you're connected to the net. Don't think it does MMS though, but who needs that when every phone is connected to the net. Just email.

I have one,but the other phone must have this software also,and this soft ware's language is simple chinese.
when the wifi is active it uses more battery so away from home its no use
the one place you can really save cash on the bill is using skype or messenger over wifi - if you know the person is online at home or on his/her mobile..
i got unlimeted data - and most friends text me on messenger instead of sms
but any ways it depends on what most of your friends use
You had a option in D2 to send sms via gsm or gprs.
Is there an app that acts like SMS but thats free to use between 2 X10s and over data plan or WiFi ? Basically, I want SMS app that goes over data, not over network. I have Nimbuzz and Fring for IM but I need something that holds messages, e-mail is not an option.
Tnx

Use PingChat
Tnx a lot ! Looks promising. It asks for my phone number, is it completely free of charge, only data plan is used ?
Tnx
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
why not just use the google talk app if you both have x10s?
Isnt GTalk chat application ? I want something like SMS, so that message stays for long time and the person doesnt need to be online and on phone. For chat I have Nimbuzz. Is Gtalk is something different than Nimbuzz ?

try Hanashi, it's an app made by SE...its free in the market...you can even record your voice and send it or share a file as well.
I use it quite often with my friends.
It uses data only...no additional cost.
Tnx but that is IM, not like SMS app, I want something like free SMS app, like e-mail but simpler, I will try Pingchat today.

I wish android would make something like BBM.. That would be 'orgasmic'!!
Dont know what BBM is but Pingchat is perfect ! Its just like SMS and the message waits on server until you turn on data so it can be delivered. Great stuff, just what I need !

Currently have an iPhone 4 and am waiting for my new Infuse to arrive. The iPhone had an app (that when jailbroken) allows you to use your Google Voice phone number for BOTH incoming and outgoing texting at no charge using data. The app even integrates with the native SMS app on the iPhone and works flawlessly.
I have been looking for a similar Android app and can't find one. Anyone know of such an app that allows FREE in and outbound texting using data?
To me the $10/month is a waste for a texting plan when I maybe will do 10-20 texts/month and AT&T's "pay per text" rate is a total ripoff.
U should be trying out "Google Voice" first. This does exactly what u r looking for.
I thought Google Voice on Android only allows free INCOMING texts and all outbound were still charged as "normal" texts either to a plan or at AT&T pricing?
If not, I was misinformed and am glad to hear that.
Google Voice in Android is much more integrated and you should be able to do the same with your Infuse (as you did with your iPhone), seamlessly and without the need for jailbreak/root and no extra charge

Close, but I don't want yet another phone number.
I'm looking for a Google Voice solution and I am being told that (strangely enough) the Google Voice app should work although I am still a bit skeptical about that because everything I have read says it's only for incoming text and outgoing text through G.V. is charged at regular text rates.
I'll have to wait until my INFUSE shows up then I will find out for sure. All I have now is a Samsung 10.1 Android tablet which won't let me download G.V. so I can't even try.
I would like to know as well if GV outgoing is free. I dont text much but my wife does quite a bit.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Outbound and incoming texts through a Google Voice number is completely free. I've already sent a hundred or so texts without incurring charges through Voice.
you can't get MMS though right?? is there a work around for that??

So far, none.
Well, finally got my Infuse and loaded up my Google Account and as others said I do indeed get 2-way free texting.
The only thing I don't like is that it is not integrated into the "stock" messaging app. I have to keep a GV widget on the home screen. As I mentioned in my OP there was an iPhone app that fully integrated GV into the iPhone messaging app complete with pop-up notifications which was very nice. I'm surprised that doesn't exist for Android since Google and Android are so closely related.
You can forward GV texts to email or even to your carriers text messaging but of course it then becomes a chargeable text.

Obviously I am NOT using the stock messaging APP because it doesn't work with Google Voice. So what messaging app are you using with GOOGLE VOICE MESSAGING?

I use GV for all my texting needs. So no need for native messaging app. And for occasional/stray texts that need to come to my phone, I use GoSMS.
I'm considering dropping my unlimited texting plan and using an app in its place to save some money. I know I can use google voice for sms but is there an app that will allow sms and mms without requiring the other person to have the same app too? You can't send mms with google voice can you? I like the google voice idea because I can just use one number and not require anyone to use a special number just to text me. I think this could be a great discussion on how we can help each other find ways to save on our bills!
Edit: If this has already been discussed please direct me to that thread. Thanks!
I looked at the apps I used for sms and issue is that all of the one's I used were app to app. Best bet is google voice, maybe try some of the mass instant massaging apps, like ebuddy or palringo.
