Sms app w/ Quick Compose - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Looking for a sms app that can allow to Quick Compose a text from any screen. Handcent has the feature, but doesn't work with ICS Phones since the search button is gone. Any suggestions?? I REALLY REALLY miss this feature

Launches the sms app. Not quick compose.
Quick compose should launch a box in any app that allows to create the message and send it. Handcent did it flawlessly.

Galaxy S3 does not have a search button.

in 1Tap Quick bar, there's an option to add a CREATE NEW SMS, which you could find in ITEMS/OTHER. the icon is a white envelope. This icon launches the default sms app you are currently using, and directly goes to IT"S create new sms message window. but i guess that's still not what you want.

Thanks for the help. I sorta found a solution with ChompSMS. There's an option for quick compose that leaves a box in your notification tray to quick compose a message. I just hate having stock, Handcent, and ChompSMS sms apps in my phone.
Not perfect but it will do for now.

Yea i know that. However that "search" mechanism does not activate quick compose in any of the sms apps.

I'd like to find a way to have notification similar to MIUI where you can respond to any text you receive from within the app

How to segregate SMS?

If it is possible [any apps?] to segregate SMS like Send,Inbox,drafts etc?
Now the threaded type of froyo is grouping all sms to one place..?

lol @ segregate..
its not in the messaging app. try searching sms messaging in the android store for alternatives..
You can try using Go SMS. With the help of gesture and tabs you can switch between threaded and label views
yeah right, for your convenience here you go m8.
And here is a segregated screenie...

SMS Popup

Hello everyone,
Is there any way to see the popup before unlocking but without the screen going on? In other words, I do not want the lockscreen to be on after I send my SMS reply. Just a black screen. I have tried Go SMS and Handscent.
Thanks

What? You mean like the notifications going on the lock screen without lighting up the screen?

What I mean is, after my popup comes up and I send my reply, the lockscreen is there. Is there a way not to light up the lockscreen?
I believe chomp sms has something close to this with some configuration.

I use the stock sms with an app called SMS Popup. It works awesome. It's very customizable. Give it a shot, I think you'll like it.

But the thing with SMS popup is that it gives you multiple popups of the same message
If anyone is still looking for a reliable popup app...try Glowfly. I know its a weird name but trust me its a good app. So far...no multiple popups and better than SMS popup

Pop up SMS w/ reply

Is GoSms the only sms app that has pop up with reply feature? None other I've found has this feature. I love apex too much to switch to Go Launcher.
Popup SMS is nice, but it doesn't have a reply feature on the pop up window, worse part is, it doesn't even have a button to go to the message. Only button to go to inbox and then having to click on the message.

you don't need to change launcher, when using Go SMS

Google Voice Typing in Text Messaging App for Jelly Bean

Google Voice Typing is no longer available on the the keyboard for text messaging. The microphone icon is now missing, and under Settings>Language and Keyboard, Google Voice Typing is greyed out and unavailable. Anybody else have this issue? I used this option a lot before updating to JB.

I'm sorry, but I'm using the Standard (Qwerty) and I don't see anything next to the space bar, and long pressing it does nothing but type multiple spaces.

Thanks. I just shut down my phone completely and re-started it after a couple of minutes and the microphone icon is there over the period. I had done this after updating JB, PRI, and PRL but I guess it didn't take. Second re-start worked. Thanks again.

[REQUESTED APP/MOD] AOSP messaging with “Quick Reply” notification option.

I'm not even sure if it's possible, but I'd like something like that. I know GoSMS has pop-up notifications, but they're too damn intrusive.
I just want to be able to pull down the notifications tray, tap “reply,” and have a window pop-up.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I would recommend slide messaging .
I would love if we could get this. This is one of the only requests I have that would make stuff better than we already have it. I have an aosp messaging app that someone posted a while back but it is kind of buggy sometimes and it lacks some features that newer ones have.

Thanks for the suggestion. It doesn't appear to give me the quick reply options in the notification tray, though. :\

Glowfly does, though! And quite well, too! Best 99¢ ever spent.

I bought slide messaging because of this thread and I can assure you the notification quick reply is almost identical to the one in 4.2...

Meh. It didn't work for me. Plus, it's über buggy. Glowfly let's you use any messenger. It just affects the notification drawer. Plus, its popup windows are better, in my opinion.
I always have problems with these third party sms apps, the notifications are always messed up, lightflow doesn't work right, I get the same messages twice a lot, and the list can go on.
.......I just want an AOSP rom so I can be done with these stupid problems, sense is going to be the death of HTC.
For sure, dude. I need me some Paranoid Android lovin' up in heeyah. Tablet apps in 1080p? Yes, please.
