Replace Touchwiz secmms.apk with stock jb apk? - Galaxy S III Themes and Apps

I've searched for hours on google and everything I have found has given me no results. I would love to use some of these amazing touchwiz roms but I absolutely hate touchwiz mms app. I'd be fine with having the Jelly bean MMS app, but cant replace the secmms.apk. Can anyone offer some help? I'm using Android Revolution 11.0 on DLIB.

This is from Dragons rom, its stock MMS. Replace it with root explorer and make permission changes.

Try go sms or handcent.
I've used both of them,plus touchwiz sms and aosp one but the first two are phenomenal.
Get them from market and just delete any other sms app.

Need stock mms odex and mms apk

Hey guys,
I don't mind doing the work to extract the files but if someone can point me where to get them? Also if you have it available I would gladly take it. Thanks
here you go.. these are from 4.2.1
apk - https://www.dropbox.com/s/169pq40sb3pltig/Mms.apk
odex - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ejnta6izwda1hyo/Mms.odex
Heres a thread that has stock deodex and odex ROM by Fireb33. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010887. VERY HELPFUL in these situations. He seems to update it too with every OTA that we receive. I dont know if he has 4.2 but those are 4.2.1. And links should still work..

Thanks so much. I am going to try to install now. I only have to place odex file in system/app correct? I know about changing mms apk to rw r r
Alright I have no idea because these don't work and neither have any other mms apk that I have tried. I guess accidentally deleting the mms odex was a big mistake. Luckily third party mms is still working.
Never mind I got it to work. Hand cent was set as default and it was blocking the stock mms.
Anybody can reupload the mms.odex please?
edit: forget it ^^

[MOD][HOW-TO]AOSP MMS on JB Touchwiz (Emoji, Quick Reply, 90% Working MMS)

First you need an AOSP based rom. I used the latest CM 10.1 so I could have Quick Reply, emojis, and mms group messaging. Not sure if this works with other AOSP roms, but it should.
You're going to need three files from the AOSP rom:
/system/app/MMS.apk
/system/app/TelephonyProvider.apk
/system/framework/mms-common.jar*
*(the files we need may be in framework.jar if the rom you're using doesn't have this file)
and two files from your TW rom:
/system/app/SecTelephonyProvider.apk
/system/framework/framework2.jar (make sure it's framework2.jar)
Now decompile everything except MMS.apk. That one's fine as is.
Now we're going to move some files around.
First is framework2.jar and mms-common.jar
Delete /smali/com/google/android/mms in framework2.jar. Yes the entire folder.
Now we're going to take the folder
Code:
/smali/com/google/android/mms
from mms-common.jar and copy/move it to the framework2.jar folder
Code:
/smali/com/google/android/mms
Now is SecTelephonyProvider.apk and TelephonyProvider.apk
Navigate to the following folder in TelephonyProvider.apk:
Code:
smali\com\android\providers\telephony
and copy the following files:
Code:
MmsProvider.smali
MmsSmsDatabaseHelper$LowStorageMonitor.smali
MmsSmsDatabaseHelper.smali
MmsSmsProvider.smali
SmsProvider.smali
Copy them to the following folder in SecTelephonyProvider.apk:
Code:
smali\com\android\providers\telephony
Recompile framework2.jar and SecTelephonyProvider.apk.
Place MMS.apk and SecTelephony.apk in /system/app/
Place framework2.jar in /system/framework/
Delete SecMms.apk from /system/app/
If you try to use Messaging at this point, it will probably open, but MMS won't work.
Now the most important part!
Note: This will delete all of you messages so make sure you back them up!!!!!!
On your device, navigate to
Code:
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/
and delete the three files:
Code:
mmssms.db
mmssms.db-shm
mmssms.db-wal
You should now have a fully functional AOSP MMS!
Here's some other MMS apps that should work with this:
Note: Flash these AFTER this mod.
Android 4.2.1 Bubble MMS.apk quick Emoji + Popup!(Thanks msk for the link)
I've attached a flashable zip for LK3, but be warned IT WILL WIPE ALL OF YOUR MESSAGES!!!!!
UPDATE: I updated the zip to remove the stock messaging app. I believe that's why some people were having issues. Thanks boostmx.
UPDATE(1-24): Added revert to restore stock TW MMS. It will also wipe your messages so backup!
UPDATE(1-26): It seems as though group messaging is still hit or miss. From sparkerjc:
Just to clarify this, since I got PM about it: The 1-18 version of cm10.1 has working group MMS, therefore to complete the mod that framework should be considered safe to pull from. However, even with that framework group messages from some iPhones (apparently iPhone 4) show up blank in Touchwiz Roms on Verizon. Not sure about AT&T but since this is the thread getting the views, I'm posting it here.
Secondly, there seems to be some confusion regarding "Working mms" MMS is not just pictures, in the group messages the apps convert text to be sent as MMS to more then one recipient. So while "MMS is working", sometimes "group texts sent as mms" may not be working. Every group text will be sent as mms, but not every mms is a group message. Make sense?
Cool.

UPDATE(03-03): Updated flashable zips with latest CM 10.1 build. Also included one that doesn't wipe messages.
loserskater said:
When going from TW > AOSP or from AOSP > TW you need to remove the messaging databases because they need to be recreated otherwise you'll have FCs. So use the "Wipe messages" zip. But if you already have AOSP and just want to upgrade to the latest one, you don't need to remove the databases so use the "Non wipe messages" zip..

Thank you for sharing this
Not for sure why anyone would want AOSP MMS on TW, but whatever. Lol.
Anyone worried about messages, just download SMS Backup.
Thanks for the share.

Quick Reply, emoji, and mms group messaging are the three I hear most people talk about.
Thanks! This is exactly what I am looking for. Will give it a shot.

Touchwiz Unread Count
Does this retain the unread counts and lockscreen notifications for messages?

That would be my biggest thing. And I'm sure it doesn't. It's stupid for it to not wake the screen if you get a message. Not so bad on this phone with a LED indicator, but on my S2, it drove me insane.
This looks awesome, thanks for this! Going to do this later so I can have 4.2 MMS and group messaging on my Beans ROM. I love AOSP but I hate the bugs so I stick with TW and theme it like AOSP.
This works beautifully! Thank you!!
First off, THANK YOU Loserskater for taking the time to figure this out and share it with us! This is the only thing missing to make my TW rom complete.
I'm new to this whole thing so I've never decompiled anything before. Any forum/website recommendations regarding how to go about the decompiling process?

Oh OK, so the decompiling info is just for other devs?
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Google baksmali apk. There is an XDA tutorial on how to decompile and compile apks.
Does this require to send MMS twice like the other mod described? Send once, then selected failed mms and forward to complete the sending?
Flashed this on CSROM and get a FC. Deleted the files. D/L again. Reflashed. Still no go.

Did you try a dalvik cache wipe after flashing?
Since the Mms.apk is not modified, does this mean any 4.2 mms will work by dropping it in? Specifically I like inverted mms, so is there one that would work with this?

Dark MMS.apk for 4.2.2

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745830
A while ago I tried to find a fix for using dark themes (saves battery life) but MMS text always turned out black on black. Making it unreadable.
So after a some investigations I am happy to say I have a fix that works with sending images
The CM10.1 version works with Shpongle for me fine so far.

i use the one from black jelly 2.2
Curious,
just installed this and the icon on the homescreen is still that green default native app one.
I really dig that ics colored icon, is there a way to change it within the app as opposed to using something like desktop visualizer? I'm looking for it to install that icon by default.
I know i can decompile the apk and change it that way. But I'm prepping to do a reinstall on my pc and don't want to install an apk tool till after.
If not that's cool, just figured I'd ask

i dont think u can change the Icon of the Messages app ... the icons come from Framework-res.apk .. you have to change it there or use a theme :good::fingers-crossed:
Here's another hmm for y'all. And I'll mention that I pulled the native mms apk from the phone first.
Does anybody have the app going back to the light colors after a reboot? I still have the native apk but it's on my sd card. So I can't see where it could be influencing the dark apk. But sure as the sun rises in the east, when I have to reboot for some reason it reverts. If I reinstall the dark apk it all goes back to what is supposed to be, and I retain all my messages. Just curious if it's just me. Or something I did
Oh, figured out how to get the ics icon to show on your homescreen.
Before you flash your Rom, go into system/app and pull the green mms.apk, and replace it with the dark version. When the phone boots it'll use that apk and viola. Ics icon and dark mms.
Hope this helps somebody. Personally I think the dark version actually sends the msgs faster. Maybe it's in my head, but it sure felt that way,
Update: for clarification, this needs to be done on your pc. Don't have to unzip the file or anything, just open it as you would a normal file/folder. I is definitely say to do this before transferring the Rom file to you device. It seems to take forever otherwise. Plus one on the phone, it seems you can't change the name of the file. Which I'd definitely recommend. Just name it "mms.apk" the device seems to take care of the permission stuff itself.

Using root explorer you can just paste it into the system/app folder, also if you use Titanium backup then once its installed you can incorporate the update into the rom. This means it will always boot with your new .apk
I have just installed the BlackOut clear theme with mms.apk and all the rest. You can install all the zips etc for GAPs as well

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads is where I got mine from, there is a little variation from rom to rom but generally pretty mint. Plenty of dark gapps in there as well, I used most of the 4.4 ones in the SlimRom except for the camera which I got from a normal google apk.
I'm working on a apktool guide so you could always read and use that :angel: .
Do you want direct links for apk only to save bandwidth? or are the rom files fine?
Thanx for sharing!!!... But i cant find mms.apk anywhere... Is it in rom zip??? If yes, plz if u have, can u share the direct links for apk...

Hi Rohov, its in the rom.zip all the mms.apk s are in the /system/app folder. You can use any zip program to open them and pull the apks out. Once they are on your phone you may need to change the permissions to -r -rw -rw itll make sense in the root browser if not post me.
Here as requested is my current fav mms.apk tho.
