Cannot set Messages as the default messaging app - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am not able to set Messages as the default messaging app. Messages app is not displayed in the More Network > Change Messaging app . I tried accessing the same settings for different places but nothing happens. When I start the Messages app , pressing ok doesnt do anything.
I tried
1. Clearing cache and data
2.Reinstalling the apk file.
3.Uninstalling updates.
I am on Note 4 N9100 4.4.4 Dual Sim
I am not able to send messages with the second sim. Hangout and Messenger defaults to a particular sim.

Finally found the solution. Culprit is xposed module Custom share.

@abs0lut3z33r0: If you disable some apps in CustomShare, they are no longer in the share/open menu - thats the reason for the module

ChompSMS and builtin SMS Messaging

Can you fully disable the SMS Messaging app or uninstall it without causing issues if you install ChompSMS and make that the default for messaging
thanks
YES
in the SMS app you can hit 'MENU' and click on settings to disable the SMS notification and then do Vice-Versa in Chomp SMS to enable the SMS notification (Green SMS)
using the settings options in either you can set one up to take priority of the other, just have a tinker and see what you think, uninstalling mite be a step to far but playing with the settings this way is good enough
thanks for reply, yeh I've already setup the defaults and notifications
i just wondering if you could uninstall the version of messaging that comes with the phone
IIRC you can remove it and add chomp as the default using ADB. You'd have to rename it, of course and resign it as well if I'm not mistaken. We tried this with the default camera.apk and SnapPhoto and the results were a little less than desired.

how to restore default Samsung app

Hi guys, tried searching the exisiting threads and read the help forum, but cant fina an naswer to my problem.
I downloaded and installed the jellybean messaging app for my S4 i9505 as I prefer this messager to the default Samsung one. But every time a message comes through I get two icons, two sound and two notifications for every message, So i uninstalled the default app thinking it just a shortcut to the messaging system and now no messages are coming through. I can still access my messages through the jellybean app.
Does anyone know hoe to recover the default messaging app?
Thanks
Actually would removing the default messaging app actually cause my phone to totally stop sending and receiving sms messages?
ok guys, so turns out it had just been disabled and appears way down at the bottom of the all apps section of application manager
So you can just re-enable it there. Although not sure if my sms is still working if not its obviously a network issue

[Q] SMS on 4.4.4

I've searched and searched for a solution but to no avail. I have uninstalled hangouts updates and reinstalled. I put messaging classic on my N10.
There is no options anywhere to choose a default sms app. when I try to tap 'Message Classic is not your sms app' nothing happens.
It's like there is no sms capability at all other than sending a msg to another hangouts member.
If I go to settings>more there is no sms option.
I can use google voice app but that's it.
So has anyone with 4.4.4 been able to choose a default sms app and if so, how?
Thanks

SMS App default resetting

I have always used Go SMS Pro as my messaging app, I have always liked it (until 6.0)
However I am still using it, and whenever I reset the Note 4, the app looses its default status, I disabled verizon message+ and the regular message app, but on reboot, it just makes Hangouts the default SMS app, even though hangouts is not set that way (and I do not want to disable that one).
I there some known issue going on with this at the moment, is there some resolution?
Thanks.

Default apps issues

I just bought a Galaxy S6 Edge+ on AT&T 32 gb, and I'd like to use Google Voice. I can set the default sms sending app to Google Voice after clearing the SMS default from the Messaging app, but after a few hours, it seems to reset. Is there any way to lock the default settings so they cannot be changed automatically? That it has to ask if I want it to change and I can refuse a change permanently if I decide I want to?

If it helps, I think I figured out what the problem is. There's a secondary default for the SMS app, for whatever reason it's under Connections > More Connection Settings. Is there a way to manually add an app to this setting's list? Or disable this setting entirely? Either this, or can I get an SMS app that won't automatically or repeatedly take defaults and permissions that I don't want it to? Basically, the endgame here is an SMS app that can receive my carrier's messages, but won't take the SMS default send permissions away from the Google Voice app. And I do not want to use Hangouts.
