Dark MMS

Has anyone found or created a dark MMS/SMS for the S5. To clarify I am not looking for a replacement but only the stock messaging apped themed dark. Anyone please point me in the right direction if you know! Thank you so much!

yes looking for stock sms

Other than personal preference for the original application, I've been running 8sms on the ROMs on my retail edition without issue. It mirrors the AOSP MMS/SMS app perfectly without issue, I've had no issue sending or receiving different types of messages. Removing completely, or freezing the primary app and using that app causes no issues either. I understand it's not what you're looking for, but, works without headache and is all dark

Yes it is stock messager. It is enable by defult but you can check in messanger settings. You can send bigger files (10MB or up to 10 pix) and see if someone read your message and writing to you.

Yes if you took last update you have it. Open message (yes samsung defult ) on right top corner you got 3 dots or button more. Click there go to settings you see advantege message settings there. Like i said in order to advantege messager to work bouth parties have to have it and they need to be on same network. I have Note 7 and my wife have S7 edge and works similar to iMessage for iphone.

When I did it on my last Moto x it was like a few seconds. I tried last night and the website just flagged a error and didn't do anything
Tried it again this morning, it moves onto the unlocking page but no email was sent and if you look in your profile, it comes up with request bootloader unlock or something and it has unresolved

Actually a fix I just tried. Make another Motorola User with a different email address and try again using firefox or another internet browser and it sent me the code as soon as I went to the next step on the motorola site!

They have been having issues lately with bootloader unlock site, there is a work around but you have to go to the official Lenovo Motorola support forum.

Firefox did the trick.. They sent my key into my update folder... Odd.. Oh well I'm on Paranoid. Good deal. Thanks people

Walked out of sprint with V20 yesterday.

The strange thing is there are no stock LG Gallery app no stock music app and no lg messenger app. I'm not sure what else is missing. Google messenger was preloading as was photos and Google music of course. From the I can tell this is only on the sprint version that's missing the stock LG apps. I did a restore from a G5 and thought maybe something went wrong. However after a factory reset, still no stock LG apps. Very strange.

I found this strange as well. I have had my V20 since Friday, and I have been struggling to find apps that would meet the mark. Finally, the text messaging app that works reasonably well is Textra. For the Music player, I use PowerAmp. That app fills the void well. I was also surprised that there was no native picture app, but the Google app it comes preloaded with was adequate. The only two things I am not completely happy with is the keyboard and the way the camera looks when you use it.

So it's not just me? That's nice to know. The funny thing is every hands on video of screen shots I see online have the stock apps. What carrier are you on?
Sent from my LG-LS997 using Tapatalk

I'm thinking they aren't selling it until Friday for a reason. Maybe they are waiting for a final software update on or before Friday? I'm not sure but I do know this seems to be isolated to sprint versions. I'm almost certain the V20 retains the stock LG apps from recent models.
Sent from my LG-LS997 using Tapatalk

I have Sprint as well. I think we are the only ones who have gotten the phone before the release date. I had the Note 7 (which I loved) and wanted something that could fill the void. I have worked a lot of things out, but the items I mentioned before are what is still getting me. You should look at this link http://phandroid.com/2016/09/21/lg-v20-first-19-things-you-should-do/ that will allow you to really make your phone better right away. Tell my what you think.

I did this. Search for LGGallery in xda and you will find a post where the apk's were ported from the G5 to older devices. It may not be the newest version of Gallery, but it works in my phone until LG decides to give us the apps.

Dialing delay

Hi, somebody has experience this issue? When dialing takes long time to hear the tone; the call goes normal and everything,but, when you are going to start the call simply takes longer than usual. I am actually using Simple mobile in the US (similar to TMobile)

I get that as well,on T-Mobile US.
Not on every call though,my guess it's a network issue & not hardware/software related.
I'll compare with the Note 8 when it arrives (pre-ordered on 8/24),I've subscribed to this thread,I'll post my results as soon as I've had 2-3 days of use.
To have a better apples-to-apples comparison,I'll try w/o VoLTE & WI-FI Calling / with each enabled / both enabled.

Cool, it may be a network issue too
Sent from my SM-N935K using XDA-Developers Legacy app

It's really simple as to why this happenes, basically because you can't enable VOLTE your phone needs to connect to a 3g service before it can connect the call, this is why it's different everytime (depending on how close you are to a 3g mast). Flashing a custom recovery and making your own csc (with VOLTE enabled) might fix this but you can only test it

Totally solved, I flashed a CSC from a note 7 and worked beautifully. Now everything works as it should: fast calls, no more delays, voicemail icon, fast access to voicemail pressing the number 1 and the most important, 4g late... Which is awesome!

Ok, let's get started...so, what you have to do is the following:
1) root your phone.
2) install TWRP.
3) this is mandatory, make a backup.
4) then, click on this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-7/development/utility-flashable-csc-selection-v1-0-t3450911 and download the convenient zip, there are two depending of the carrier.
5) flash it through TWRP and reboot the device, let it seat for a while.
6) at this point, everything should be fine; when you flash this zip some stuff will disappear from the status bar like the mobile data toggle.
7) this is optional. If you want to see the toggle on the status bar, we must add something to the CSC code. First of all, find the CSC folder located at /System,Omc and access to the carrier folder of your election (in my case was T-Mobile) and let's edit the others.xml file (you can use ES explorer to do this)
Inside the CSC code, find the following code line: <CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigDefQuickSettingItem>Wifi,Location,SilentMode,RotationLock,Bluetooth,WifiCalling,PowerSaving,AirplaneMode,Flashlight,Nfc,Sync,BlueLightFilter,Aod,AllShareCast,SecureFolder,DeviceVisibility,DormantMode<
Then write at the end MobileData. Save the changes and reboot your phone.
