Is there a way to change the message limit in stock SMS? I set it to 1000 but it still deletes my messages automatically. I just downloaded go SMS and I'm not sure if I can set it in another app or not?

You could install and use google voice. It will log all of your messages without limit and you can access them from a pc or phone just like you would gmail.

Well , This Method works for sure for any messaging app...
Choose and install any Backup & Restore App from Google Play.
Click on Backup to Backup your SMSes.
The progress bar while backing up your messages will show how many SMSes you have (to be backed up) xD
That way you get to know how many SMSes you have sent and received
I use --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore&feature=search_result

It will back ALL your messages each time you use it. Not sure if you can backup your new incoming messages only without backing everything up again with this app.
Each time you backup your messages with this app , it will be independent of the previous backup. Each time it ONLY depends on the messages you currently have (not the deleted ones)
If you want that only your new messages get backed up , I have one more app for you. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zegoggles.smssync&hl=en
This backups all your messages to your Gmail account.
But the thing is that if you have backed up a message on Gmail through this app , and if you delete it on your phone , the message will stay in Gmail.
That means , that this app backs up your messages and NOT syncs messages.
With this app if you back up on Monday you will back up 20 messages and not everything unlike the previous app.

It's the best APP, no error or something. + autobackup settings
I think this one with gmail will work.thank you both for helping
Is there a way to do this? I've tried TiBu to no avail. A bit of a noob when it comes to Android.
*edit* If it is possible to xfer texts from GB to ICS, is it also possible to merge sms/mms that are already on my gs3?
**edit** I tooled around with the AT&T Messages app for a bit and decided it wasn't for me. Is there a way to merge the sms from the AT&T Messages app with the stock messaging app with sms backup?

I've been using SMS Backup+ for quite a long time. I have it set to automatically backup up my SMS, MMS, and Call log every 2 hours to labeled folders in my Gmail account. You can also restore after flashing a new ROM (or getting a new phone), and it'll MERGE instead of overwrite.
New version of titanium backup pro has it now.

Good to know, the google play page for this app says it doesn't restore MMS.
"Automatically backup SMS, MMS and call log entries using a separate label in Gmail / Google Calendar. It is also possible to restore SMS and call log entries back to the phone (MMS not supported yet)."
So I've always stayed away from it.

True, it still doesn't restore MMS, but I almost never view old MMS pics on my phone. If you really need to, though, you can always view them in your gmail account instead.
Thanks for the replies fellas. I guess there is no straight solution to transfer sms and mms from GB to ICS.
I remember gosms had this really cool backup and restore feature from sd card back when i used to use it, maybe give that a shot? :good:
Zmore is the man. Worked like a charm. Hopefully SMS Backup + adds MMS support soon.
Hi there.
I want to set Whatsapp as default messaging.
I go to Settings > Wireless & Networking, > default SMS app. It only gives me the choice of Hangouts or Messaging. What gives?
Rooted stock 4.4, Nexus 4.

Whatsapp isnt capable of sending SMS's, it sends its message over data.

I have the same problem with my stock Nexus 4 with KitKat. When accessing non-whatsapp contacts from within whatsapp it defaults to the standard messaging app. There is no way of making it default.
My wife has an old HTC Wildfire running eclair and on that you can set whatsapp as default.

As @Anthropostar said above, whatsapp does not do SMS - it "uses" the phone number to identify contacts but all messages are sent via internet data, not over gsm etc.

Hi, I know whatsapp uses data to send messages but you can't send to non whatsapp contacts in KitKat. You can with older builds. (Sent over data - received over SMS)
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
it's work for me
goto contacts and select contact click send message and select whatsapp
My apologies.
Whatsapp was sending over SMS on the wildfire.

As the title says, I'm unable to send any text messages using the default messaging app on moto E. I have my phone rooted. Messaging is a system application. I'm able to recieve messages though. If I change the default messaging app to some other app like hangouts, everything works. I have tried making a backup of the messaging app, uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing works. Also cleared data. When I send a message, it's stuck at "sending...". Check screenshot.
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

I would you try switching the default app to hangouts or another messaging app then switch the default back to the stock messaging app and see if that helps.

Open your default phone manager app select notification and turn off the SMS allowance.
