Is there any sms app that can store unlimited sms? Stock or CM is OK?
Hey Guys,
I wanted to know if there is a app that combines the hangouts with sms/mms,
What i mean is i have looked into CM Mms with sliding (hangouts) navigation & 8sms.
But both miss a feature that i like on hangouts when texting and that is the archive mode, use it all the time and right now hangouts is my main use.
Hopefully there is an app for this.
Thanks
Only Hangouts can send/receive Hangouts messages

How I bought the LTE version and when i try to send sms it shows ME TURN ON SMS ON SETTINGS have someone any advice?
Use handouts? You get set that as your default SMS app then sending SMS is easy.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using XDA Free mobile app
I use an app called 8sms. Then go to settings and then click more, and make sure 8sms is your default SMS.
Hello, I have installed Google Messenger to replace the default MIUI SMS app, I have set it as default and gave it all the permissions on security and app settings, however Messenger app doesn't show any of my previous SMS & MMS that I received on MIUI's app... On all the other Android's I used, installing a new app would automatically show all the previous SMS I had on the phone, not sure why this one isn't...
Any help on how can I "import" the previous messages to the messenger app?
UPDATE: I was able to backup and restore the SMS and MMS using a SMS/MMS Backup app and it was able to get all the messages, but still after the restore the messenger app won't show them
There is english bug forum on MIUI website, there are also 3 reported bugs on different devices about missing SMS in Google Messenger. But because of low votes there are no progress. I can't give you a link (since I am new user) but you can easily found them by searching for "Google Messenger" in their forum. And up vote to speed up the fixing process.
Pixel 2 Running Android 8.1 with March security update, Build# OPM1.171019.021
Using Magisk v 14.2 - works perfectly
Default SMS app is Android (Google) messages, I also have following SMS related apps installed:
Textra, Titanium Backup, SMS Backup & Restore; all have the correct permission in settings (SMS, storage).
In settings the only app that is displayed as an option for SMS is Google Messages, I can't switch to SMS Backup & Restore to restore messages or to Textra, which I've used previously.
I'd like to restore some SMS that I have backed up and switch back to Textra, but that's impossible if I can't choose a different SMS app as the default.

What happens when you open textra and just click use as default sms?
When you open textra and select "make default app" it opens the settings window for default SMS app, but textra is NOT a choice, only Google Messages is, so in effect, nothing happens, Google Messages remains the default SMS app

No issues on P, can't speak to 8.1
Default App Manager works in 8.1. (I only have Gallery and Hangouts, but I can choose either one.) It's under Messages.
Problem solved, I uninstalled all sms apps, then reinstalled them, now they show up as alternative sms apps.
