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.

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.

Thanks for the advice. I used handcent for a long time on my g1 and it was alright except for a few bugs . I may consider it in the end

I'm really sick of the inability to turn off the emoticons in the stock SMS app. Are there any good messaging apps on the market that DON'T pop up the dumb "menu" softkey? That is really annoying.
I've tried Android 4 ICS Messaging but it just seems really buggy, it crashes while using MMS and last time I tried it, it kept duplicating incoming SMS.
Any suggestions?

our first OTA update should fix the menu softkey just like the One S received. do you hate the emoticons because they look extremely goofy? you're not alone there. as soon as we attain root, i'll be throwing in the new ICS Android ones to replace them. not sure why they thought these looked appealing. we just all have to be a little patient.
I don't want to replace them, I want to get rid of them. Hopefully that will be an option

Hi guys,
I just got turned on to GO SMS PRO today, and I really love the functionality and customization. Problem is, I just rooted my Verizon Galaxy Nexus and installed Jelly Bean, and I completely dig the new notifications. I tried turning off notifications on GO SMS, and setting it as the default send and view program..which allows me to only receive notifications from the stock SMS app, but when I click that notification, it opens up with the stock as well, even though GO SMS is the default view program. Is there any way around this or is it an all or nothing situation? I'd really appreciate any help I can get! Thanks!

Change the name of the stock messaging app, or company remove it from system apps using root explorer
If you wish to remove it, I'd copy and paste it elsewhere in your sd card so you have it later if desired.
It looks like the app already has that ability. From the changelog:
V4.56 Update (2012-7-20)
1.Add Premium Feature Pack (Find Phone, local backup SMS/MMS/private box, etc) in application center
2.Add sync Facebook contact photos (Premium feature)
3.Add backup/restore MMS (Premium feature)
4.Add option to set default SMS program (in Settings->Basic)
5.Optimize My Location plug-in
6.Optimize Facebook binding with GO Chat
7.Fix security lock issue in ICS
8.Fix number lock issue in JB (Android 4.1)
9.Fix ring choice, notification issues in JB
Thanks for the responses guys!

I actually couldn't find the stock messaging app in root explorer! I looked up messaging, SMS, and nothing came up..not sure what else it would be under. But if I did that, would it actually force the stock notification to open up with GO SMS, or would it just prevent it from opening with the stock app?

Thank you, but I believe number 4 is just referring to the option to set GO SMS as the default SMS program..I have that set, but still when I click on the stock notification, it opens up in the stock messaging app. Lame!
Thanks again guys!
Same problem here...
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.
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
