Are there any SMS apps in the market that allow you to reply or mark as read from the notification instead of having to open the entire application?
Found the solution: 8sms.
I really want to try 8sms but the no auto-retrieve MMS thing kinda kills it. Plus that icon is terrible!
this is the sms apk from aosp 4.3, no idea if it'll work on 4.4 or if it'll install as a normal app or it'll need putting in the system apps

Does anyone know how to use the native android sms instead of the htc sense one?
I believe there are mms.apk's out there that you can download, but you can always use something like Handcent or Chomp SMS too
From what i read it seemed like the mms.apks just removed sense messaging but i didn't think it replaced it with the stock app. I have started using handcent which is ok but i would like to know how to go back to stock app as well. You know just to have options.
Root required.
I've been using aosp mms for the last couple of days and I mostly like it but it doesn't read my contact in the conversation thread and it doesn't seem to size right inside the messaging thread. So I'm hoping someone has a flashable zip of the original HTC sense mms apk ? I'm running freshes latest Rom if that matters .
just adb push the Mms.apk to system/app
I cannot get the stuff to and push to install on ny computer

I'm not sure if that'll work since it's tied to Rosie. However, I do recommend Handcent SMS. It has iPhone-style bubbles and other themes and has a quick reply popup that will come up in any app you're in. I too found the stock Messaging app lacking but this made it much better.
If you do decide to use this app, be sure to turn off notifications in the stock app or you'll get two notifications for each message you get.

+1 to this. Of course the stock miui SMS app is great if there is a rom available for your phone. I love it.

I have tried Go SMS too, but the flood of colors, blingage isnt what I want...but I do like the folder structure it has. All I am looking for is an sms app that displays sms msgs in folders and I can move a message from Inbox to a Save folder. Also if I can see msgs I deleted in a Delete folder, giving me an oportunity to move any to a different folder, respond or simply clear the delete folder.......
I'm sure this is not possible but I want to use the Go SMS Pro notifications with the stock messaging app. I have the new HTC One. I tried Ringo Pro, but it only lets you do the Ringo icon as the alert (ugly). I also tried SMS Popup, which is OK but isn't as easy as Ringo to set up custom SMS tones.
Essentially I want custom SMS tones for individual contacts, and I want the Go SMS color notification icons (or similar ones), but I want to use the stock messaging app. I know, I know, it's probably not possible but I figured I'd check.
And if it wasn't obvious, I prefer to use stock launcher for stability's sake.

Can't you just turn off stock notifications and leave GoSMS ones on? You'll have to open the stock app whenever a text comes in, vs. using the notification, might be a bit annoying but seems workable.

Yeah I could do that, but I prefer if I can touch the notifications to go straight to the app. I think SMS Popup is my way to go, despite being a lot clunkier than Ringo
Why do u want to use the stock messaging app?

Because the HTC Sense 5 stock messaging app handles group messaging perfectly, whereas none of the after-market apps (like Handcent and Go SMS Pro) handle it as it is supposed to happen. They all involve clicking "download" or getting double notifications and it's slow. The HTC Sense 5 messaging app is quick and allows group messaging very easily.
So the one thing that is annoying me on the G3 using stock SMS app is that if somebody sends me a long SMS that is split into multiple SMS's, sometimes the arrive out of order. On my old Galaxy S3 these messages came in as a single MMS, thus being one single message that was not out of order.
Anyone know of a way to change this? I do not want to switch messaging apps because I like all of the features of the stock messaging app.
Unfortunately, it would appear that sending long text-only messages as MMS is not supported by the stock messaging app.

I wonder if anyone has looked inside the stock messaging apk for settings like this. That was how the samsung messaging apk was modified.

Even the G3 Tweaksbox, an Xposed Module which can reveal the option to disable the screen wake for messages, doesn't have such an option.
