Texting/SMS/MMS app that supports Google Voice messaging? - Android General

Anyone know of a Texting (SMS/MMS) App that also supports Google Voice messaging? (If it supports other messaging formats as well, that would be great, but those are my preferred formats.)
I was using Google Hangouts but for some (stupid) reason, Google has decided to remove SMS/MMS features from that app.
I like having all (or as much as possible) of my messaging functionality in one app. I also prefer to have outgoing text messages default to being sent via my Google Voice account.
Any suggestions???

Is there a Google Voice sms app with these features?

I'm looking for either just a decent Google voice SMS app or one that I can choose certain contacts to use my standard service and some to use voice sms.

[Q] GV SMS Integration not working on SkyICS 4.2F6

I'm using the GV SMS Extension app from the Play store, and I've used it on CM9 Nightlies and it worked fine, integrating with both GoSMS Pro as well as the native messaging app. However, upon flashing SkyICS 4.2F6 (base 2 update 1.8) the integration no longer works on either GoSMS or the native messaging app. I can send messages which work fine, but messages recieved are not put through to the apps; rather, I can only read them from the Google Voice app itself (which is slow as balls). Any ideas?
If you go into the google voice app and hit settings, than go to Sync & Notifications, than Receive Test messages (here you can select Google Voice or Messaging app)
That should make all your texts show up in GOSMS
Yeah I know that, but what that does is forward the GV texts as real texts. I don't have a texting plan so that defeats the purpose of using he GV SMS extension.

[Q] SMS via messaging app shows as Google Voice number

I'm not sure if this is a new google feature or an issue on my end.
I use the native messaging app to send out sms to certain people to display my carrier provided number and the google voice app to send out sms to other people to display my google voice number. i discovered that regardless of using google voice or the native messaging app(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1507720), it was going through as my google voice number (e.g. google voice and/or native messaging app sends sms as google voice number). this is what i originally thought was happening until i discovered that if i send an sms with the native messaging app to another user with google voice installed, it goes through as my google voice number. if i send an sms with the native messaging app to someone without google voice installed, it displays my carrier provided number.
*obviously if i send an sms from the google voice app, it shows up as the google voice number*
i'm not exactly sure how to fix this. i could be completely wrong in the scenario above because i've only tested it with several other friends. i have made no changes to my google voice web settings, nor my google voice app and native messaging app.
any help is greatly appreciated.
i'm on verizon, gs3 android 4.1.1
even with google voice uninstalled and the phone rebooted, sending from the native messaging app sends through as my google voice number
bump
anyone?
Install the Google voice app and in the app settings. Click on send text through app instead of through phone messaging app. This might help

Google voice Verizon

Anyone else having issues with getting notifications when receiving SMS messages though voice?
I do not get a notification but if I open the app they auto populate and load and finally the voice notification when then show new messages. I switched the app to use the default messaging app and I get the notifications. If I go into the web interface and forward messages to email I get them as well. But the voice app it's self does not notify me of new messages? I know it works because my galaxy would get the notifications and I know background sync is on and running.
Any suggestions? (No root this is a work phone.)
I'd highly recommend you install and use Hangouts for your primary SMS app. The gVoice app is basically just a utility tool to get your gVoice integrated into your dialer and not really meant to be a fantastic SMS app.

Hangouts is installed by default (at least on Verizon.) Appreciate the comment and thank you.
