hi,
usually i use textra for my sms/mms, i choose it by default and it 's good.
but with the x50 pro, it is impossible. I run textra in I choose it as the default messaging application and each time I receive an SMS, I have this message: "the system messaging app has been set as the default messaging app to ensure your messages are secure"
in settings, application management, default application, messages: I only have the system application messages. other sms applications do not appear.
how to do?
Seems strange. I use textra too and in my default app settings it shows sms set as textra..
I'm on the RMX2075eu A.32.... Rom.
I can only guess that the rom has something to do with it?
yes, i think because it's the 2071 cn. i had installed the 2076 rom and i had textra in default app setting (but unable to update the rom so I went back to the original rom)

hum, the stock app has no popup, no continued notification, no quick reply....etc.
no matter but it fast. grief is I must type all the names, any way can i send many people sms by (un)check in contacts with stock app?
i'll suggest Handsent SMS (free)
handcent. done.
Greetings,
I have this app called "Messaging 7" (from app store) which if you are aware, is really an awesome windows messaging app. I like its simplicity and have used it before kitkat update.
The problem is, im currently running kitkat in my HTC device and it's annoying that I cannot set it as default sms app. Therefore, everytime I receive a new text message, it will not mark as read until I open it on the device's default sms app. Kinda annoying, I can disable the notification from other sms app, but again, I need to figure out how to set the Messaging 7 app as default.
It is observed that the developer of the said sms app no longer works in it. So I'm thinking that there maybe a work around or solution with this since the app was created before kitkat update. Some other updated SMS apps i have tried to install appears on the selection for default app (from settings) and so I guess there's just need somthing to modify in it?
Any help will be very much appreciated. I really want this messaging app. :good::highfive:

put application in system/app with name mms.apk, and first backup original sms aplication (mms.apk)
First i can send sms using the default app called contacts, but when i try to change my default app from then settings, from Setting> more..> default sms app i choose hangouts or go sms pro but the apps cant succesfully send sms. in order to send sms in my phone, i have to set the default app again to contacts, i can send sms perfectly but its too lag/ unsmooth when typing a message unlike hangouts and go sms pro thats why im eager to change the sms app... from the settings i also tried to clear defaults but nothing change.

Unfortunately there is not much about your exact device on xda.
So please ask in the General discussion > Questions and Answers > [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly. by immortalneo.
Best place to get help if there is no device specific forum available.
Good luck !

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.
