HANDSCENT!
I tried to go back to the the basic mms on my evo. But couldn't keep away from hanscent. Can customize way too much, not a bad thing, but I spend a lot of time tweaking it just right. so i love it now lol
CyanogenMod-6.1 mms.apk here I tried hancent, being picky ... I just dont care for the UI and the widget looks like crap but its a good app just not for me.

I went back to the stock miui messaging app and it looked so boring...Chomp isn't too bad but still +1 for Handcent

Can I just delete the mms.apk that's already installed and install CM's? I remember reading some posts about people having problems with picture messages breaking without the original MMS.apk.
"Went back to HTC MMS to fix MMS download problem." - vaelpak
Can someone post the Cyanogen 6-1 mms.apk file please? I tried looking for it , but couldn't find it.

Default client with cm6 works fine.for me
some place in the world !!!!
so basically theres only 2 SMS apps?
(handcent and chomp) talking aftermarket sms programs
+1 Handcent
Does anyone know if there is something like this out there? I wish there was a built it notification that had a quick reply option without having to replace the stock messaging app. im not a fan of sms pop up from the market.
Any ideas from developers if this is possible? Or if something like this is already out there. I just hate how android currently handles sms notifications, you have to take way too many steps in order to view and reply to the message.
Thanks!

You're going to have to choose a 3rd party SMS app that you like and does what you are looking for.
Its easier to do that than expect someone to custom-make a system app that can replace the SMS app entirely and add your desired functionality.
Try SMS Popup, I've been using it since 2009 when I got my OG droid...indispensable!!
You should try Go sms pro, i think its the best sms app atm on market.

Did you even read the op? He said he doesn't like SMS popup
I had SMS pop up installed on my DroidX and when I got my galaxy nexus it didn't work at first. Once I reinstalled it runs perfectly.

SMS popup does exactly what the OP is asking for. I cannot see why he doesn't like it. It allows quick response, etc...

Popup SMS does something extremely similar. Non-intrusive, doesn't mess with YouTube playback, and has some level of customization.
Give it a look. I love it.
I use handcent . Give it a shot
Hello guys!
I recently installed the official ics rom on my samsung galaxy s2.
I always used on gingerbread SMS GO PRO (I'm a fan of the team go, their apps are always good) but with ics sends two text messages at time.
I write this post because you suggested just the app that I mentioned. It 's a known problem and I can fix it?
The other proposed programs have themes that are close to holo?
Thanks a lot,
Sli
handcent is pretty nice.

I download and try Handcent immediately ...
Thanks for reporting,
I do some testing and I update you ...

I've searched for days, but I cant find anything on how to install the Samsung txt msging app on the ICS, ive tried downloading it n it wont install n ive tried pushing it too n wont work.
I hate the ICS msging app, so i use another app to txt, but i really like the Samsung txt msging app, is that possible? im sure it is.

don't think you gonna get the "Samsung" one to install. sounds like maybe you on an aosp rom? "Samsung" app = touchwiz app. you need a touchwiz based rom. I suggest trying out gosms. its an amazing messaging app IMHO.
Or handcent. That is the one I have been using and I think it is perfect for me.

Question for those with gosms. Can it show text and the thread similar to the touchwiz messaging app in landscape? Really love that feature and it's something that Hand cent (which I've always been a fan of) lacks.
Thanks

Edit: Just downloaded GoSMS and found it does not have the landscape functionality of the Touchwiz messaging app. Kind of surprised neither GoSms nor Handcent have done these with 4.6"+ screen sizes becoming the norm and ample screen real-estate allowing for such functionality.

An inverted app has a dark background and light text instead of having a light background and dark text.

You can get emoji plugins for GO & Handcent SMS apps.

I wasn't aware instagram had integrated emoji, sounds like you need a keyboard with the functionality then. I don't know of any.
go keyboard has emoji plugin.

chompsms has excellent smiley support.. customize it properly and youll never look back at the stock messaging app
I am looking for a 3rd party messaging app that has ALL of the following features
Contact picture in Notification Shade
Quick reply from directly from Notification Shade (not a pop up feature)
Individual message tones
If anyone knows of one I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Doesn't Handcent do all that?

Textra has the best implementation of quick reply from notification that I can think of. It also includes the other features your looking for.

CM Messaging doesn't allow you to have separate notification tones.

I'm not sure one messaging app does all that. But check out 8sms, chomp sms or glowfly.
