Cm9 Mms with call motion

This Mms should have the call from messaging motion. I did not make or code this app. I made a cherry picked build and pulled this apk out to share. I'm not sure if it will work, but it should.

Installation:
Delete stock messaging app
push this app to your system/app folder and reboot.
Or you can flash this zip in recovery- thanks to Justin860

so basically you can use this apk and the putting your phone to your ear will still call the person?

do we have to remove the stock msging app before installing this one? also, will this show that there is a msg recieved in the lockscreen like the stock msging app shows?

Yes you need to delete secmms first. I will add that to OP.
You will lose the lock screen notification.

App worked perfectly after I cycled the motion switch in the settings.
Thanks much

Is there anyway to add lock screen notification? Other than that, this messaging apk was awsome

Followed instructions in OP
Are any permission changes needed?
It lags badly when i attempt to go into the app, i'll hit the icon on my home screen and it will hang for a good second before opening
It also will not let me click on any existing message thread once i receive a message until i go and "compose" a new message to someone in the list, then have to back out and it will work
I also noticed that once I send a mms when i go to compose just a text it will re-insert the picture i JUST sent
Any one else with these issues?
I'm going to run fix permissions from CWM and also maybe reset the MMS app data and delete pre-exsisting messages from before the change from stock to the modded cm9 one
**EDIT**
I cleared app data for the messages app
Fixed Permissions in CWM
Wiped Cache and Dalvik
Deleted all existing messages
It appears to be working now, so just a heads up for anyone with my issues, try what i did and it should clear up

OK after running this over night it is clear that this does NOT function the same way as the stock motion, here is what I mean
I was curious how the motion detected that you wanted to call the contact, the stock motion requires the phone to be taken from texting orientation to talk orientation AND detects when your close to your ear with proximity sensor, it will not work if you just cover the proximity sensor, it actually requires the motion too...
This modded "motion" enabled messaging app only looks for proximity, so if you move your hand over the sensor when typing in landscape mode it will try to call the person
In real world use, with the stock app I never accidentally dialed anyone
With this modded app, I have over 15 accidental calls just last night alone
Also, it will work weather or not you have the "motion" for it toggled in the motion settings

Saving mms

Is there any way to get the stock messaging app to automatically change the file name when saving an mms? It promts me every time telling me to rename it or else it will overwrite the last one... Not the end of the world, but incredibly irritating.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium

No idea, but if you just want a convenient backup of your texts, this one seems them to your gmail. They'll be threaded weird and out of order, but easily searchable.
Oops, I can't post links yet. It's called SMS Backup+, available on the play market.

I do actually use that (and have been for quite awhile) its very handy for lots of reasons. I just like saving all of them to my phone too though.

I have the same problem, you can continue naming each individual picture with numbers you just randomly think of, its rare I repeated the same number. Or download a third party app like Handscent or Go SMS which just downloads the MMS without worrying about a particular designation. Every once in awhile you run across a Touchwiz rom that doesn't have this problem, but its usually a ASOP rom that just downloads MMS without this problem.

That's about what I figured. I used to use handcent but the stock app has made leaps and bounds over the years so I like sticking with that. I've been doing the random letters after going to save it, but in you ef up and do by chance pick something you already used, it will overwrite it.

Any update or solution to this issue? From what I remember my Samsung Epic 4G did not have this problem, as a matter of fact it did exactly what we are trying to get the Galaxy S3 to do by default. I find that this should have not been an issue, why on earth would someone NOT think to make this a basic function/feature?....

Galley Rant...

I am getting so frustrated with the stock gallery. I actually installed the 4.2 gallery so I can change my stupid wallpaper. I deleted the gallery cache and everything I try won't fix this junk. Deleting the cache for the gallery used to work but now it still acts real slow after. Does the gallery act up on custom roms also for anyone? If not I might get off of stock rooted and actually install a custom rom.

I have never had gallery problems at all. Ive set all my wallpapers with it. I also have over 700 pics and videos and it wont lag at all even with airview enabled.
Whats your problem specifically ? You just cant set wallpapers?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2

I get major lag (like the gallery takes up to a minute to generate my pictures) when I try to set a wallpaper from settings - Display - Wallpaper or when I open my sms app and try to attach a picture from there.
I never have lag if I go straight into my gallery. I can set wallpapers and share via sms from the gallery without lag.

QuickPic, ftw. Have not used stock gallery for more than 5 minutes total since purchase of Note2.
Slow to load, can't hide folders...
The sidebar feature is nice, but not worth it.

i saw the title and thought this had something to do with pirates.

This is probably happening because you have you google pic syncing and Dropbox and Facebook if you stop your gallery from syncing youll be good to go

Thank you for the advice. I just turned all the syncing off and my gallery still runs real slow.

It's never going to get faster.. It's garbage. Get quickpic and be done with it.

Works fine for me.stock rooted

Whenever I try to attach a picture the gallery comes up blank intermittently. At times it takes forever for the gallery too load

Slide show???

Ever since I flashed the prerooted stock rom from xda, my picture messages are both received & sent in slideshow format. My wifes s3 is untouched & does not do this. Her pics come in as a full screen picture & not as a slide show or video format. Is there a setting somewhere I am over looking? A line of code that can change this? Or should I try replacing the messaging apk?
Any help or suggestions are welcome
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

Here is my version info. Just stock & rooted.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

Any ideas?

The only time I get slide show us when it's more than one picture Sent. If it's just one it come in normal. If it's a slide show just long press, hit save and they will go to your gallery where you can view them in their entirety and delete whichever one you don't want.

Yes I have been saving the pics to the memory card to be able to see them.
Mine always comes through as a slide show format even if it is only one picture.
It's pretty annoying......
I know this is not normal behavior, but cannot find a way to correct it......
If I flash a shock messaging apk in place of the existing one, do you think this might help?
The one I have should be stock but came with the stock/rooted rom I downloaded from xda.

What rom are you using? Maybe I can link you to some other sms apps you can try.

Picture messages look like garbage. *assistance, please.

I've used a couple of modified MMS apk's and nothing seems to help. I first noticed while sending screenshots. Then for testing, I sent myself a few full size photos taken with the camera. Still look like crap.
Is there a way to fix this? Is there an AOSP messaging app I should be using? I've had all the galaxy phones, all the nexus phones and I recall, I think, that I used to use an aosp MMS apk to resolve my issue. I'm currently using a modified tw mms apk that claimed to increase file size limits, other limits, etc.. Maybe I'm misunderstanding.
Any help towards reaching the goal of high quality, not low res/pixelated MMS messages would be greatly appreciated. Stock TW would be nice but not adverse to using aosp MMS.
Thank you for your time.

im pretty sure picture messages are compressed before they are sent, which means a downgrade in quality.
How much of a downgrade is normal? someone else should be able to answer that better then me

Yeah i wanna know too. Nottach/Wanam used to have the option for max mms size but its been removed for a while. Though i remember when i set it to the highest my mms didnt get delivered. It depends on both carriers involved. Damn txt sucks

I agree.
They look so bad, I won't even send MMS anymore. Today I emailed a couple of pictures to a friend. Which is horribly inconvenient for the recipient.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I guess it depends on how the Rom is tweaked. Mms pictures work fine on the wicked Rom.
