Stock sms app - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

The app does exist in my phone, it's working, but when I swipe to right from contacts to send sms, it redirect's me to whatsapp. How do I get back to default the stock sms app without reinstalling my custom rom? (Ultra DecentLite v4)

You could go into settings and reset all your defaults to see if that works. A number of apps innervate them selves when they install, which can be a PITA.

I can get to messages app, but he wouldnt let me compose one if i hit cancel

Ah I see, sounds like a bug in that custom ROM then, tell the dev see if there's a fix
Or uninstall messenger and see if it sets as default the stock messaging app

If I uninstall Messenger there will be blank.
It's strange because I'm using this rom (Decent Ultra Lite v4) from a while and I think this problem appeared since I've started to use Xposed modules.

A logcat will do the job (atleast 50%) ?

It might help the dev, not me

ditto, gracias
i LOVE handcent, but it only flash's the trackball once. chomp flash's it till u do something about it which is nicer incase i miss the sound.
can't you change the frequency & duration that it flashes the trackball?
ya, frequency doesnt work with n1's but i figured out why it wouldnt flash more then once
handcent was open when i turned screen off.
Still cant see contacts in handcent 3.0 ...
misread the post I quoted...
Anyways, nice that they updated the app so quickly, was a bit of a pain to use the default messaging client.
It works, but If I write a message and choose a contact, there are no contacts there to choose..

Sorry, I don't know clicking the "+" goto contact is blank, ya you are correct. No contact there, as I always type few alphabet to let contact appear, seldom using the "+" way.

[Q] Eaglesblood 2.3.7 (2.4) mms problem

Hi all,
I installed the Eaglesblood ROM 2.4 a few days ago. I noticed I'm not able to send picture messaging. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix? I already wiped it twice.
Much appreciated!

MMS works fine for me on stock SMS app. Try using GO SMS Pro, that should fix it.

Hey thanks!
I'm downloading it right now. Do you recommend I remove or freeze the stock sms app? In the stock sms, I can text message but I can't send pictures.

Nah, just leave the stock SMS app there. Just disable the notification alert so that you won't get two different notification texts.
You'll love Go SMS. So much more customization's and over all looks a lot better. And there's some wonderful themes for it. This is my favorite theme for Go SMS.

Gmail freeze when swiping to switch mails !

Hi,
When I swipe to the left or right to switch mail in Gmail, it freeze like that: http://youtu.be/rIpPCpZcf64
When I lift my finger, the mail goes into position very, instead of finishing the shift normally, such as the app drawer for example.
There is the same problem with Google Image, but worse !
Can someone say me if it's normal or how to fix this ?
I have a Nexus 4 with Paranoid Android, thanks.
Nobody ?
I watched your video and did not see anything wrong. Gmail appears to be doing what it is supposed to do.

[APP] Google Hangouts Icon

My google hangouts icon still uses the gTalk icon. I've tried uninstalling the app and then reinstalling it through play, but it still comes back with the Talk icon. I've also deleted cache and data for the app.

No. My nova Icon theme is set to default. But that got me thinking: I tried installing another launcher and it has the correct hangouts icon. So I uninstalled nova and reinstalled it, and it is working again. Not sure what the issue was there.
hangout sux....video call doesnt work on mine...if i uninstall updates i have no video camera to make a video call.
I just wanna chime in on the Hangouts bashing.... I can't believe how much they ruined this app.. I mean, instant messaging is pretty simple right? Why change it? Now sometimes I won't get an IM for 45 minutes, I can't see who's online, it FC's all the time... Crap crap crap. I restored my old TiBu backup of the original talk. If anyone else want's it let me know..

If your notifications are coming that late and you were getting a lot of FCs, I'm thinking it is a problem with your setup. I have had neither of those issues from the moment it updated and haven't really heard it from other people either. As far as online status, I'm a little split. I liked having it, but on the other hand, we don't have an online status for text messages either and we don't get riled up about that, so I am adjusting to just sending a message when I have one to send. If it is urgent and they don't reply I'll contact them a different way. I see no reason to roll back to talk.
no dice on this?
i want to find out the same
i think it may be something to do with us running custom roms

Same issue here on stock nexus 4, i uninstalled it with titanium but no change. Also it doesn't work, i tried to send an im from my girlfriends phone but i didnt received anything.
Using Nova, menu/nova settings/look and feel/icon theme/ choose default. That worked for me to change hangout icon.

My problem was from nova launcher, i had Talk icon in nova, but hangouts in trebuchet. Solution: reinstall nova and do a set everything manual, don't use backup or you will end up again with the talk icon.
Just long press the icon - edit - click the app icon, then choose another icon on Nova Launcher. Easy once you've done it once and know the trick.

It's not a problem with my setup. Talk works flawlessly.
The things is this isn't text messaging though. This is instant messenger. A completely different format. It's nice to be able to see who's online to talk and not otherwise engaged. You don't get that in text messaging.

But they actually meant this to be like talk and messages combined. They should be incorporating SMS into it soon.

The biggest issue I have, and maybe I'm just over looking it, but I can't change my status. I liked being able to be invisible like a ninja or busy if I didn't want to be bothered and so on. Running Goodness 10.0.3 if that means anything.
Optional Icon Solution
If anyone is looking to change the icon and happens to own tasker, it is a very easy fix. Just create a task to open hangouts and pick any icon you want. Then create an icon that simply runs the task. If you own the app, it should be pretty easy to figure out.
