Is there a AOSP port of the Messaging app that will work with our phones? I keep coming across ones that will work on Samsung devices not running AOSP roms but nothing else saying it will work across devices. I believe sideloading the AOSP one works but MMS won't send or receive properly. Don't mind the LG one but would love going back to AOSP
Did you try the app Messaging? I haven't tested MMS on our phones but it worked in the past on my old phone.
Messaging on Play Store
What about using Hangouts for SMS? I like it because all of my messaging takes place in 1 app.

Have you seen 8sms in the app store? I've been using that messaging app for a looooong time and I absolutely love it.

Hey guys, I really want to use JT's froyo aosp as my daily driver, but I can't do without MMS, anyone know a way to have MMS's sent to my e-mail or something similar so that I can view them in that format instead of through the mms app on the phone? In the same fashion, know of a way I can send from an email or something that would get received as an MMS?
I really doubt there's a way to do this for free, but if there is, I'd love to know
go onto your phone and email a phone # to try it. Seems like i remember doing that before. You have to put the 1 in front of area code though.
you can send emails to [email protected] (assuming you have verzion). For example if the persons number was 123-456-7890. You can email [email protected] and they will get it as a mms.

Other carriers:
@txt.att.net
@messaging.sprintpcs.com
@tmomail.net
As far as receiving them, you could just have your friends e-mail pics or whatever to you.
Just got around to reading this now, thank you guys. Anyone know of a more solid fix for the mms? could I possibly make it so mms sent to my phone is sent to my email ?

I know the sms portion of handcent works but mms won't. I wish it did, I liked the AOSP rom. It's speedy.
In the sent message settings on handcent it has an option to convert to mms but not until it is 3 or more messages long and i really don't feel like typing that ling to see if it works, but now it looks like i am going to have to put some time and energy into investigating this. thanks for the info, since i have a pretty slow afternoon today i will see if i can find anything out with it. i will post results of my tests here, if i cant get to it before the weekend i will definitely work on it then. You have peaked my curiosity sir, so now i must investigate, I'm kinda OCD that way. any here i thought i was gonna get bored today.
I think it has something to do with how Samsung ties everything to touchwiz. None of the roms without touchwiz - MIUI, CM or AOSP - seem to have working mms.
Maybe their isn't a reason for this question but has anyone been using aosp MLS on the thunderbilt. I really don't care for htcs messages app and was wondering if i could pull the aosp aol from my wife's fascinate and use it. If knowpne knows ill just give it a shot.
I tried it and MMS stopped working, when I switched back to the HTC messaging app, MMS worked again. It could just be me though.

I use the vanilla mms app, and it works great for me. Check out this thread, and follow his instructions.
I downloaded Sliding Messaging Pro on my Verizon Note 2 (rooted, CarbonRom 1.6) and it is a great messaging app. My only issue so far is that I cannot get MMS to send. I have tried using both of the preset APN's for Verizon that are included in the app settings.
Anybody know how I can fix this?

This is a far fetch try, but I noticed this on the charge by accident. Make sure you have the stock messaging app. If not reload it. I deleted the stock messaging app and replaced with gosms on the charge, and the same thing happened. Also if you have the stock messing app, make sure to go into it and check for the auto retrieve (not sure if this will help or not, i've just always done it)
So I emailed the dev. He said to make sure wifi is off, otherwise MMS will not work, which should really be stated in the app or at least the app description on the Play Store somewhere.

Has anyone gotten this to work yet? I just downloaded it and tried both presets for Verizon that come with it and neither work. It doesn't look like it actually changes the settings either when I click a preset.
For some reason I cannot make calls using my GV #. Everything thing else works with it.. I searched and saw theses custom roms sometimes use third party dialers. It was said to set that to off in call settings, but i am not seeing that. Any ideas?
I was having issues yesterday between 630AM and 4PM EDT......I think it was a Verizon issue as my wife was having issues as well. Are you sorted now?
Could it possibly have something to do with Google updating hangouts to include voice calls yesterday?

Nope... Still calls from regular # regardless of how I have GV set.... What gives!! I can't be the only one dealing with this.. Just installed on GFs S3 and she gets same results as me.
I have been making calls using Google voice integrated into the dialer just like every phone I have ever had. Works fine on CM based roms and TW based roms. Worked since the hangouts change so I don't think that's related.

I was on clean rom yesterday and jelly beans today. Made no changes to the dialer. Neither rom is working with GV and the dialer for me.
I've been using the default messaging app with my v60 and I actually love it. Up until a few days ago rcs was working perfectly with it and then it just stopped working. No read reports no typing indicators ..nothing. just wondering if anyone knows how I can fix this issue and get rcs working agian as I would prefer to keep using the stock messaging app. I already tried wiping cache and data for the app. Any help/ideas are appreciated

For some reason RCS has never worked in the stock app for my wife and I ever since we switched to TMobile. It works in Google messages, but never the stock app. And after today's announcement that T-Mobile was rolling out universal profile, I tried it again and it still doesn't work

That's so strange. I wonder why it was working....literally since I got the phone in hand, and then just stopped. Hm...I hope they get it figured out as I actually prefer the stock TMobile messaging app.

That is strange. Although, I'm having a weird problem where mms doesn't even work at all on the stock app, but it works fine on Google messages or any other 3rd party apps. Which sucks because I like the stock app but I can't use it since I can't send or receive pics or group messages. T-Mobile literally had to open a trouble ticket in my account and are trying to figure it out

Weird....mms works for me. Hopefully they can fix this with a future update as I really don't want Android messages.
Maybe it has something to do with TMobile agreement with Google regarding RCS.

I would have thought that could be it, and maybe it is, but I've had the phone for well over a month and it hasn't worked from day one. Supposedly T-Mobile is going to contact me on Tuesday after the "engineer's look at the provisioning" on my account
Aaaaaand just like that, RCS is working again for me in stock messaging app wtf?
