Changing Default Messaging App (RCS) - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hey everyone! I noticed that changing the Samsung's default messaging app to Android Messages inhibits Chat Feature of the app, therefore RCS wouldn't be available. Is there any work around with this kind of situation? I hate Samsung Messages!

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] MMS Pixelated In Default Messaging App

I've noticed that in the default messaging app that pictures from MMS look pixelated until I save them and view them in the gallery app. The same applies to chomp SMS, but Hangouts seems to handle picture messages properly. Does anyone know of a way to fix this for the default messaging app? Or maybe someone knows of an SMS app that puts a notification on the lock screen where you can launch directly into that conversation without pulling down the notification shade (if that's even possible since it wouldn't be a first party app). Thanks for any suggestions you all might have.

[Q] Notifications don't work with S View

I have recently started using Chomp SMS because I hate the default s5 messaging app, but I have stopped receiving text push notifications on my s view screen. If I switch back to Messaging, they come back. Does this feature really only work on their own apps or is there a work around for this?

You are correct, the sview cover app only supports the default messenger.

Messenger app

Hello,
Has anyone having problems with group messaging coming as individual text?
This is on Google messenger. I've tried multiple settings but still receiving single text.

Unable to change SMS app

When I add another sms application to my Samsung S8 plus the messages I have sent do not appear in the new sms app. I only see the messages I received and I have gone in and made the new sms application the default app. I have tried using Google and Textra for sms with same results. Odd issue but I saw someone else posting about this on a different forum.
Anyone know why the messages I have sent are not showing up when trying to use a different sms application?
