I tried out the MMS.apk from the International Note N7000 and it's working fine on our phones.
The conversation thread has less of an iPhone feel to it.
To install:
1. In system/app, rename the stock mms.apk and mms.odex to mms.apk.bak and mms.odex.bak
2. Copy this mms.apk into system/app and change the permissions to match the rest of the apks in the directory.
3. You might have to restart the phone for the app to show up in your drawer. (I did not have to do this.)
Any difference with our ATT Note? Background? Font?... Thanks

Yes. You need root for playing with anything at system level.
Worked great for me, did not need a reboot!
Works great, thanks. I didnt like the yellow message bubbles, so I replaced them with the stock at&t blue and gray, and it looks awesome!

I'm on the stock AT&T rom and it's working fine. Did you delete or backup the mms.odex file in system/app?
I'm a total dumbass I guess I should learn to read before trying to apply any mods huh!! I didn't rename the odex file. Lemme try this again.

I can if you want, but its a little more modded than stock. See Screen shot.
Sorry i want to apply this mod, but i am running stock rom. What the best way to root it so i can apply this mod. On my previous android phones, i was just download an app and root it. In my international note i used DooMLoRD_v1_ROOT and it work fine. I am reading that on ATT note you have to used Odin and flash the phone. Please advice. I don't want to install new roms, all i want to do is mods like this one.

Thanks, for warranty purpose. can i go to setting, privacy and factory data reset. Will that undo the root and take me back to unroot stock att or do i have to flash to go back to factory default.
Sorry so many questions.
Thanks

You should ask questions like this in that thread since it is specifically for that and this thread is for the MMS.apk from the International Note forum.
But - no, factory reset does not undo root.
Yay no more white background. Thanks alot!!!!!
*****ATTENTION*****
Please do NOT post this apk anywhere else. Anything you find wrong should be posted in this thread. Please leave feedback or let me know if I missed/messed something up.
Hey guys here will be some mini themes to tie us over while on stock.
Instructions:
1. Remove the color name so file reads SystemUI.apk
2. Move to /system
3. Change permissions to rw-r--r-- ( this step is important or your phone might not boot/boot without status bar. You've been warned)
4. Move to system/app
5.Reboot
Thanks:
Beans for the ROM
If you like it hit thanks
*****THESE ONLY WORK ON BEANS STOCK DEODEXED ROM*****

Because that mod was for an odexed rom, therefore it will not work on this rom. But everything else looks right?

Ok guys the issue has been solved (thank you to king_tee for testing). Downloads should be back up in a few hours. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience.

I thought these were flashable when they were posted previously. I don't like moving files around, etc.. Too many opportunities for me to screw something up.

Sorry there was a problem with my script, TWRP functions slightly different, in the future they will be flashable, just not worth it to me right now to do it for one file. If you make a backup and follow my directions youll be fine.

What size donation would it take to make it worth your while to make the red version flashable? I just got custom recovery and I want to test drive it using your themes
Do you happen to have screen shots of what it looks like? Don't want to waste my time if I don't know what it looks like first if you know what I mean
No longer supporting this share as I have made the changes to apps from the S Advance.
Hi there, I searched for a modded mms/sms that had no limits to length of sms or number of people I could send to. I finally found working stock SecMms thanks to developer extralife. His thread is here. Check it out and give him thanks for his work. They were done for SIII but work well in my phone. I have XXLQ4 JB 4.1.2 but these should work in the other JB on S Advance. Just make sure you back up your original.
First is with stock android smilies:
NoLimitSecMmsStockSmilies
Second is with alternate smilies:
NoLimitSecMmsAltSmilies
You should backup your SecMms.apk in the system/app folder before installing these to be safe. These are installed by CWM or TWRP. I tested the installs with TWRP and they worked, so should work with CWM. Remember do not boot directly to CWM, you'll get stuck there. After you install, don't reboot right away. Do a wipe of the Dalvik cache first then boot your phone. Android will optimize your apps so be patient.
If by chance you use this in your custom rom, please give credit and link to this in your op.

Here is his thread:Modded SMS thread Go there and see all he has done, quite impressive.
They work on my S advance fine but the text was too small for me so I changed the size in messages to his latest mod, Mms_inverted_tw-bubbles_avatars_v1.4. With his permission I share it here.
You need to rename your SecMms.apk to backup or something and if you are still odexed, rename the SecMms.odex as well, then with your favorite explorer paste this mms.apk into system/apps and set the proper permissions. Reboot your phone and you will find it in your apps drawer where you can put it back into your dock. No thanks needed LOL just hope you like it.
If there is someone really smart who can make it a flashable zip that does the renaming of files, and puts the mms.apk into system/apps, please do as I am sure it would make things easier for people. Now that we have CWM recovery for our phones thanks to varun.chitre15 and his Thunderstruck 2.5 kernel.

I haven't had that problem. If I do I will see why. which mms.apk you using?
Edit: I tried an mms also and had same problem. Sent pm to the orig dev to see if he has heard of this.
OP updated with the problem.
I found some alternate modded Secmms.apk's with CWM flashables and push versions at this link:
Stock modded SecMms
They are for galaxy Note II but it works on my phone. Only bugs are that the <3 doesn't show the heart smilie properly and dev is aware of it and seeking a fix also the themed one doesn't show the different themes on my phone at least. So I am just using the stock version. Make sure to thank the dev for them...
