if you do use GVoice, just uninstall the default voicemail client with titanium. That happened to me.

Hahahaha in your face evil voicemail notification...solution here

Handcent is my favorite. Customizable, pop up sms, reliable. Check it yo

EDIT: Oops, didn't notice you say you aren't rooted. Well, if you ever do root, you can use the AOSP ("vanilla Android") or CyanogenMod versions of the messaging apps.

Where is this CyanogenMod messaging app you speak of?

Handcent is so laggy once you have used GO SMS Pro. I don't get why people are STILL recommending it. I wouldn't use either laggy Handcent or the underdeveloped ChompSMS.
Only problem I have with GO SMS Pro is the childish themes. But I just use the dark theme anyways.

I really haven't had an issue with the stock SMS app. Do most people toss it away because of the lack of features or what?

Yeah. I mainly like the popup. The stock SMS app is already really good as it is, but I like more customization.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the clarification. I have used Go SMS before and I did like the pop up feature as well.

if i remove the stock sms app will go sms still work?

Actually, you can keep using the stock app if you just want a popup/quickreply feature, download an app called sms popup.

It comes with CM7. I believe it has been posted to these forums somewhere, but if searching doesn't net you any results, you can just extract the Mms.apk from the zip file of ÇM7 pre-beta for this device. As I mentioned, you have to be rooted (as far as I know) as it's a system app. Back up your texts first using SMS Backup or similar from the market.

I use the Mms.apk from /system/app of CM7.3 Stable for the EVO and for the N1. They are different file sizes and I found the N1 had more features. (strange I know) plus it is for a GSM phone, EVO is a CDMA. Anyway point is that AOSP Mms.apk is pretty generic and you can pull it and the alarm clock, the calculator, the Email.apk CarHome.apk and a few other apps. Some will just install some require you copy/paste into the /system/app/ Folder.
FYI I just tried Mms.apk, I am rooted but it installed just like any app. So you should be able to just install it, No Root needed.

Interesting...did it install as a system app or a normal app (did the package manager install the apk to /system/app or to /data/app)?

I like the stock blur SMS app as well because of it's simpleness, but on Alien 4 it will not resize attachments so I use Handcent, been using Handcent for some time now (even when I was using CM7 on my Aria) and have never had a problem with it. I've tried others and have always gone back to Handcent. The wake lock you speak of, please elaborate...I have not notice my phone not idling or anything while using Handcent.
The stock mms.apk that comes with CM7 is nice if you like the barebones look, I don't and that's why I like the blur sms app, it is not so bare (although it is very short on settings).

The galaxy s4 on att actually supports group messaging. Go to the text message app>settings, scroll down to Multimedia message (MMS) settings and check the group messaging option. I am running 4.2.2 . This was actually the first option i tested in the att store before buying the phone because it used to piss me off with my S3.

What exactly is group messaging?

Where multiple contacts are in the same message thread. So I can send a message to persons A, B, and C and all messages received from them in response to that group message will be received and viewed in the same thread.

Text messages failing when using custom themes

I'm making this post for a friend. She has a T-Mobile G2 and apparently when using sending text messages (via stock app) messages fail if the persons message is themed. Deleting Cache and resetting will help for a little while, but eventually will do it again. Text Messages sent without any custom themes are sent fine. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

No, this is for a friend who was having trouble, stock rom, non-rooted. I did a search and didn't find anyone with the same issue, I thought maybe someone on here would know a work around... or anyone know of a good third party messaging app that allows to have individual themes for different people?
