I'm on 2.2.1. I want to take a picture and when I send a text piture it auto resize it to less than 500K. Is this possible on droid x?
yes, you can use handcent or gosms. they have a setting for max size and will auto resize it for you.
thank you, i'll try those apps
Handcent is awesome and I found it supports MMS better. It actually alerts you of having one to download unlike the stock messaging app that sits there until you open that message thread from the sender.

Hello, I have looked through (what I think is) all of the menus and cannot find a place to change font sizes for things like threaded messaging or other areas on the device. I have found the one in the web browser but I am more interested in adjusting the font for the text messaging area. Is this possible? Thanks!
Don't think you can in default sms and email. Get handscent for sms and k-9 for email. Highly customized apps. Also search for" lcd density changer" on xda to change screen reso.

Ok, this is really bothering me. I know if you go to the contacts list you can choose to dial or text, but if you choose to send a new sms from messaging how do you get it to go to contacts? It doesn't auto complete and it doesn't recognize if you just use the name. The same thing happens in pictures or the gallery. Like the other night I chopped off the tip of my left pointer finger and wanted to share the picture with my brother, but I didn't have the time to navigate through the contacts before I needed some paper towels. Is there an easier way?
Yes. Use handcent app. Its miles better

Been using Handcent for a couple days. I like the easy access to contacts, but I'm unsure about the screen waking up every time and the fact that it gives me 3 separate notifications in the status bar for each message. Thanks for your suggestion.
Hi maye, go into messaging app and turn off notifications... You would only get 1 notification then

Trying to find an app for quick replying to sms messages. I installed sMs popular from the play store and it works except the messages still show unread. Also the contact pictures don't show up. Anyone know of a better app to use?

i really liked the one from cm10 tho
Sliding Messaging is great for anyone coming from AOSP ROMs with the expanding notifications, quick reply/mark read, and breathing status bar notifications.
I had to manually edit the MMS APN settings within the app to get it fully functional, but now I'm able to send/receive MMS + group MMS perfectly.
I use GoSMS Pro, but SMS Popup works great as a standalone app.

I see the same generic icon when I get an email or text. I can change the sound I get but is it poosible to change the icon to be different for email than texts? I had this on my old droid charge but cant seem to find where to change it on this phone.
I swicthed to Nova launcher but I am not rooted or anything.
Thanks!
You could use an alternate mail app, or use an app which'll notify you of a new SMS and turn off the stock SMS notifications. Take a look at "SMS popup", you can use it for SMS notification without using the popup thing.

I have a quick question. Is there a way to force a "text" message to be sent as MMS instead of SMS using the stock messaging app? It looks like right now, if the message is all text, then only after the 6th 140 character message will it convert to MMS, otherwise it stays on SMS and splits it into 6 SMS messages. I want to choose to convert it sooner if I want. Is that possible? I know that if I insert a picture then it will convert to MMS immediately, but I want text ONLY MMS. Thanks!

Don't know why you want to force txt mssg to be sent as MMS but there is a setting in stock messaging app that combines all the split mssgs to be send as one whole mssg. Don't know if this what you want tho.

Create a google voice number. Then use that number with whoever you want to text as a group text. It'll become MMS instead of SMS for group texting.
