Stock messaging app - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,my carrier (Rogers) recently pushed the lollipop update however the stock messaging app does not provide heads up notifications so I have to use hangouts in order to get them. Is there a fix for this? I prefer the look of the stock messaging app.

No.. Only if there is some mod for it, you can probably find it. Just google it

htc sense mms

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

Stock Messaging App

Hi,
I have stock GB on my brother's droid X and was wanting to root and install a custom rom on it, either Liberty or Apex. He really wants the stock messaging app that shows all his messages from various accounts (Facebook, Email, Gmail, etc.) So I was wondering if I could put that app back on for him or if anyone knows of anything similar to that app. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
you'll have to stick with a blurred rom. Sensei Mod v3 and DarkslideX come to mind. I think Vortex also has that messaging app but I can't be certain since I never use it.
Liberty3 has an option where you can replace a ton of the AOSP apps with Blur apps, messaging included.

[Q] Stock Gmail Widget Download?

Hey, after searching XDA and google I have been unable to find a way to install the plain, old, stock Gmail Widget on a custom rom. The one that lets you pick a folder and display it in a customizable size window.
To avoid certain comments, I am *NOT* looking for a 3rd party widget which can do what I am asking. I *WANT* the plain, old, stock gmail widget that doesn't require me to install a hacked version of the gmail app to work.
Any help will get a *THANKS* click and my appreciation. I'm either looking for an APK, or a method to extract the widget from another source.
Hmmm... actually, is the stock gmail widget only available in *real* ICS builds? I'm looking at my GFs phone, but somehow I remember it being on the stock ATT rom as well. Lmk.

Looking for SMS app similar to the CM10 Messenger

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

Multi-part SMS

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.
