How to make apk files work - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I like the stock mms, but the only reason I don't use it it's because I cant add
Signature on my text messages. For now I'm using go sms pro.
I found this one but it won't work "Keep force closing"
Anybody knows how can I make it work, I'm using Wicked V4.
Thanks in advance I'm looking forward for your answers.

Open it in the "Downloads" application

Try copying it to the /system/app location and matching the permissions with the other apk files found there. Might be force closing due to lack of permissions.

[Q] getting rid of the app "messaging"

Is it possible to delete the app "messaging" but not mess up being able to actually text?
Here is my scenario I use handcent to text and they have an option to blacklist (hide) messages from certain people. However the app "messaging" which comes with the phone still shows them! Can I get hide that app? I am have the epic experience with the emotionless beast on my phone.
I couldn't find the app in root explorer either to rename it!
Any ideas?
it's in your system/app directory it's called MMS.apk. you can back up and unistall it with sdx stock app uninstaller and see if everything still works ok. If you have any issues then you can just restore it.

I usd sdx stock app to remove the orignal one in order to put on an mms.apk that allows me to have a maximum 5M mms size. If i delete it after i just put it on wont it remove the feature?
I will try it in a bit anyways though and let you know the results
EDIT: It didn't work,by getting rid of it I can still sms but my mms is completely disabled which makes sense. Thanks anyways for the idea though
Any other suggestions please

I could have told you wouldn't be able to send or receive mms
Just use launcher puerto and hide the stock app on the draw. I believe theres other apps that do this also.

No the issue isn't getting double notifications. I need the app removed or hidden. The messages that I hide in handcent are still visible in messaging, thats the problem.
Use shadysms.

Fb and gmail not working in LPP widgets

Help
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Gmail stopped working a while ago due to change made in Gmail v2.3.5. I always kept a backup of an older version but now they've blocked that from sending/receiving mail so you have to update and lose the functionality.
Facebook still works for me though. Try clearing the cache and re-authenticating through the launcher pro settings. There's a special forum for LauncherPro, you;re better off asking there rather than the SGS apps forum.
I've been using Android Pro Widgets instead lately, give that a try!
Thanks danny. I followed your advice.

there's a workaround for gmail, it is not very easy to do though.
http://koxx3.wordpress.com/create-y...-allowing-content-sharing-with-external-apps/
uninstall lpp, unistall gmail, install modded apk, reinstall lpp and you're done.
Cool - there must be a pre-modded Gmail apk somewhere out there, no way I'm gonna go through all those steps...
EDIT: Found one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1199518
EDIT AGAIN: Turns out the modded apk will allow other apps to read your emails, safer way is to sign both the Gmail app and LauncherPro APKs with APK Manager and reinstall them both - works fine for me!

[Q] Photos from Posts fix or gallery replacement

I was wondering if there had been a fix to have the Picasa folder from Google+ "Photos from Posts" stop being split into various folders according to date on our Galaxy S3. Is there any way to fix this but maintain the rest of the Picasa folders?
Perhaps a way to "Hide" said folders while being able to maintain the rest visible?
If neither, maybe an alternative gallery replacement app that is able to see both the pics on the phone as well as sync to Picasa?

Try going online and doing it. I. I'm not sure you are able to within the gallery. What if you add them to one folder using a file manager app?
Sent from my SGH-T999
I've tried to find a way to hide that entire folder within Picasa to no avail. If anyone has found a way I'd love to hear it.

Did anyone find a fix, this is so annoying. I sure wish it would just work like it did on my Nexus.
No one find a fix for that? Or a replacement app?

thats not what im asking. the message center number for at&t is different for t-mobile so if this is for t-mobile only then it changes the message center number making it impossible to send and recieve texts on my at&t phone with out having to call in and get the right one back. if it keeps my phones sms settings and just pretty much themes it then no worries but if its built to run on t-mobile and has t-mobile defaults then it changes the number and then puts anyone not on that service out by having to re obtain the right number. sorry to get all technical but id much rather remove and install rather than to do both and then call at&t to fix it so i can send messages.
It will work with att perfectly fine. And everything works including MMS. Your needs to be rooted and you need to delete your original messaging system app before you install the new one and another cool thing about this app is that it will change with 90% of themes you put on your phone and most SMS /MMS mods won't I'm sure you will not be disappointed with this app ..

Did you delete you stock system messaging app first then install it it will work if you uninstall you stock system messaging app first I used root tool box pro it worked great

if it wont install just delete the stock app copy this one after you download it and move it to system/app then reboot. i had to but after i removed the stock one i didnt reboot before i tried installing this one. but its as simple as moving it if it wont install. works fine for me and looks really good on this phone.
Does the quick reply still show up with this installed? I love that thing but I like the black window.

Yes it has a quick reply pop up option in the app settings

I can receive MMS messages fine but it FC's on me when I try and send a MMS.
+1 on that. i cant send pics or vids either. it either fc's or says it cant send. either one just leave a blank tile and says sending until i delete the whope thread. anyway you can pist the stock app so we can have full functionality back?

[Request][MOD] Enable default text message app to send Scheduled text messages.

Hey all.
I recently had the need to send a scheduled text message to someone,but i realized my phone didn't have that option. I searched for a messaging app which could help me send scheduled messages,and i came across GoSms. I tried it,but i didn't like the idea of having 2 sms apps installed. I searched further, and i came across this thread. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471786&page=3
I tried to follow their steps,but i don't know how to decompile apks. Also,when i got to the touchwiz default sms apk,it was labelled SecMmsMultisim.apk as opposed to SecMms.apk which was available in that thread ( Probably because Grand is Dual Sim). Because of this,will the process still be the same?
Or better still,is there a flashable Mod designed for Grand?
Someone please help!

how to do schedule message?
There is actually a app called note 2 hidden settings app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...edium=organic&utm_term=note+2+hidden+settings
It has the option of scheduled messages but it says it won't work on grand however after reboot you can see there is a option for scheduled messages . I haven't tested it but it may or may not work

Here, I made exact as in the given forum guide, Just Screen toggle on off i didnt make any change.
Make sure to backup and delete SecMmsAvMultiSIM.apk and SecMmsAvMultiSIM.odex.
Paste in /system/app.
Thanks all,but i found a "schedule messages" menu in my message options. Thanks a lot!
