Question about text messaging

Yea. Go SMS has that option along with a ton more.

To clarify a bit: no, you can't get notifications this way right out of the box with a stock or AOSP-based ROM. But there are apps from the Market that will give you pop-up text notifications. You can use GOSMS as the other posters suggested, but if you don't want to use a different messaging app, there are also apps that will take over the notifications while you continue to use the stock messaging app to read and compose your texts. Search the Market for keywords "SMS notify popup" or similar and you should find what you're looking for.
Along with Go SMS there's also handcent sms which is similar.
If you want exact iphone replica messaging, then try chomp sms. I've been using it from a while and I love it.

SMS customization

Is there any way to customize GO SMS or Handcent SMS to have it show the contact photos in the conversation itself? (Like on Stock Android)

I don't know about Handcent, but I can't find the option in Go SMS Pro.
The pictures must be already placed under the contact in the phone book. Then they will show up. (Gosms)

I was referring to the conversation itself (bubble or list) . In stock in the convo. Itself the image appears next to the text of whomever sent it

They show up just fine for me. I am using handcent but I used to use go SMS and it worked fine as long as i didn't sync Facebook. Syncing FB caused issues
^ nice member! ..... sorry I misunderstood ur question.

Mms

Why does my mms keep going to my gmail? Does anyone know how to change it to go to my text messaging? Thanks

Details would help, are you using a stock rom or custom, stock messaging or third party, are you using Google voice, if so did you select full integration?
I'm using tranquility ics stock messaging

Well I was hoping you would say Google voice, they forward mms to Gmail. I don't know what could cause it other then maybe having mms forward to Gmail from your account address. Last I checked sprint was getting rid of the personal account address for picture mail though

Did you look in general settings in messaging app? There a setting there to forward to emails or another number.
I've never noticed that, right there in general settings, good to know
Yes I have google voice. I selected full integration. Is that why mms is coming in to gmail ?

check your settings on google voice, check the native messaging app as well just to make sure that one isn't fowarding them. If you still can't, just go to gmail and create a folder for mms and tell gmail to route all the mms to that folder and it should kill any email notifications

I had something like this happen to me on viper's rom, i wasnt getting email notifications. Turns out i didnt have my gmail sync'd.
Go to settings > accounts & sync and verify you have twitter and facebook accounts. If they arent click on add at the top right. If they are there try to re sync them. If that doesnt work try to remove and then add them back.
Hope this helps
