What error do you get?
My guess is that your APN settings are wrong. Look for your carrier's and match your APN to them (LTE and MMS). Also, don't forget that you need to have data enabled to send/receive MMS.
P.S.: I don't know if the stock AOSP app has mass text though.
i'm sure you're aware of the group messaging box that has to be ticked in sms settings (under "multimedia MMS messages"). just covering all the bases. cheers

no i dont get an error in that sense. i just see no way to send a text to a group without having to type each name in

Does it work with other app like handcent?
I saw a lot of post about stock msg app and group text not being supported.
And you didn't answer about the MMS/photo msg.

Don't use Go, it has access to personal information that it shouldn't.
As for Handcent, I personally like it, but then again, we all have our own taste.

Whoaaa looks so much like the stock MIUI SMS app now! Will try this for sure!
Emoji does not work
I have not tested it yet with people who DO have go sms pro,
but, when I send emoji to people who DON'T have go sms pro, they do not see the emoji I attach in the message, only the regular smileys
Edit: I just read again the market description of the emoji plugin. and indeed it is stated very clearly that the recipient should have go sms pro and the emoji plugin.
In my opinion this is totally useless.
One has to convince all of his contacts to install an app before one can use it properly
That's not the right way to implement new stuff.
Imagine you could not talk to someone unless he had your dialer application....
ridiculous

So you suggest they change the SMS-standard to implement their own type of smileys? Remember that SMS is only text, and it is the SMS-app reading the SMS that translates the text 'colon-paranthesis' to an image of a smiley-face.
Ridiculous...

I am not a developer and I don't have knowhow, but I know what sounds unreasonable.
It is very unreasonable to provide you with a tool that only works if your recipient has exactly the same tool.
Can you imagine having an sms app which messages could be read ONLY by people who had the same app? wouldn't you call that ridiculous and useless?
I don't see the difference

Or is it just me? Every email I open that has pictures or graphics I have to scroll to the bottom and click on "Load More Details".
I really like the email in the Nexus Roms or the CMxx Roms - they ask at the TOP if you want to show pictures and then if you want them to be shown all the time. That is what I would like to have. Any idea where/how one could accomplish this?
I have tried virtually all of the email clients in the Play Store and really do not care for them fro one reason or another. I even have $16-17 invested in a few of them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ted
I purposely use Gmail for everything. Just goes hand in hand with android. I actually freeze email and exchange apk.
Have you tried enhanced email from market?
Sent front my SGS3 Epic 4GLTE Touch
If you use Gmail, you can just press "show pictures" at the top if it doesn't show them by default. It will remember your preference for that person.
Gmail also has a better theme and is generally better than than most, if not all, email clients.
If you don't use a google account for email, I believe you can set google up so it receives email from a certain address and you can send outgoing email from that address.
My biggest complaint is that Samsung put all of the controls (reply, forward, etc) at the top of the screen which makes one hand operation a challenge. I have big hands and still have trouble reaching the controls. I replaced Samsung email/exchange with the stock ICS versions on my E4GT for the same reason. I might do the same on this one as soon as I flash a custom ROM.

It's sad that it's as bad as it is, since the stock app for the SGS2 was so nice.
also, it doesn't play well with Office 365
That's the issue I'm having with the stock app too. Loading details for pics and graphics is crazy. Their should a option to autoload or the link to load should be at the top of the email
On all of my android phones I was never a fan of the stock email app when getting my work email. I then found out of about Touchdown. Its a great app to get exchange emails on.
I do like using the gmail app though.

I really prefer the gmail app. You can forward most other email address to your google account. I know I did that with my work email so I could get them on my phone while I was in the field.

Forward with files checked, show images checked, auto download attach on wifi checked, size to recieve all, (thats an exchange account my gmail account is set to 100 kb) those are the only important settings if your using a pop3 account that might be why your having an issue. Even my gmail is set to imap.

In the browser mode of gmail you have to change the settings of gmail to imap. Its set to pop3 by default.

Gmail is really good especially since its push email to our phones but it lacks the ability to embed images which i have to use the stock email app for work account anyways and id rather be able to embed images than have push. Thats just my preference.

You will get the 9016 text messages so download something (my preference is spc from the market) that will take care of the messages. SPC hides the messages so that you never see them.

klharalson: are you referring to this application? It hasn't been updated in a very long time. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superdroid.spc)
OP: I use GoSMS and the built in blacklist does not block the 1096 text sadly. I wonder if Handcent/ChompSMS/Pansi SMS do this too.

It hasnt been updated but it works and I never see the 9016 text messages on either GB or ICS or even JB
this worked great no issues,since i use handcent sms ,i was unable to blacklist the 9016 message sucessfully,it just hides the text or as it says "makes the text invisible"so that leaves the recieved message icon up

You might try SPC as well, all it does is pull the text message to a hidden folder AND hiding the notification
great advice ,this app works enough said
It may not work on cm7, but this link works on cm9 or even on jb running on my evo lte

Hi
I did try to Google but couldn't find the answer....
Is it possible to choose the default messenger per Contact (not global default messger App?)
For example, for some of my contacts I would like to use WhatsApp, and for others SMSPro.
When I chose to send a message to the respective contact (from the address book), the appropriate app should be launched.
Any help would be most appreciated. This has been nagging me for sometime.
Thanks in advance

Firstly, thanks for replying to my query. Now for the reason....
For my contacts who are availabe on WhatsApp I would like to use it, for the rest I would like to use normal messaging app.
(Others may even want to extend it to other similar apps too.)
I'm not 100% sure, but i don't think you can. Unless you just don't choose a default message app. Then everyone you wanted to send a text message, a box will pop up asking which app you want to use. I think.

Thanx, this is what I do right now but is quite annoying. I guess I will use the WhatApp app directly for the few contacts that use this specifically.
Would be a great option to have.
I could think a similar aspect for the dialer app too. Use Google Voice, default dialer, ....
I know Vault app use to let you hide incoming SMS from certain contacts, that is before Google Store changed its policy. It seems Vault no longer offer an older version for download. Any 3rd party apps that still let you do this? Thanks!
You can try Go SMS pro. I've used it for a couple of years now.
Textra has cool customizations for that, nice n clean

Block on stock app works great. They end up in the blocked folder without notifications.
I used to use the private folder in Go Sms Pro... But i use MOOD sms... It takes a little to set up but theres ZERO add spam and functions and looks way smoother.
Stock messaging app does this, no need for a 3rd party app. Open the message thread from the contact in question and hit the 3-dot menu, then custom notifications. You can turn off notifications completely, mute sounds, hide the content, etc. I have my kid's dad muted like this lol.

Private/hidden messages are very much different from blocking. The goal isnt to mute notifications. Its to seperate your main txt threads from your private txt threads. Stock doesn't allow this, not even when using Samsung's own secure folder app. So a 3rd party Apps like go sms... Mood... Textra... Etc are still needed for this level of functionality.
Ive always used Handcent Messaging. Has a private messaging feature that keeps certain contacts out of your main messaging window.
This thread just made my day... "Tryna" get back to work now...? BTW, Textra is a great app but doesn't support private folders, not that I've been able to find anyway...
I have used gosms and it was pretty nice. Dont know if thats still available but it a search.
