How do I disable stock Android text app?

When I receive a text message I have both Handcent and the stock Android texting app notify me of a text..I just want Handcent to notify me..
I have Googled this and it seems you disable this in the stock app by going to menu and then notification settings and it should be there..okay problem is there is NO notification settings..
Anything I can do?

Go messaging app then press settings then uncheck notifications
Edit: wait nvm I read ur whole post and realized u didn't hav the setting :O

Hide keyboard in messaging

Hi guys,
Just wondering is there some way to stop the keyboard from showing in the default messaging every time you go into it?

I'm not sure it can be done with the stock SMS app. Third party ones like Go SMS and Handcent have an option for stopping the automatic appearance of the keyboard.

Thanks, got handcent at the moment. Just that one of the custom rims i had tried it was hidden on the stock sms so thought there may have been a way to hide it.

From the home screen...hit menu>settings>volume
There you can change all the vibration settings

if you are using 3rd party SMS Apps then you have to change the settings in the App itself, for example Go SMS and Handsent and others alike

Did the above and it still doesnt vibrate...

[Q] Help on 3x4 keypad please.

i have a problem regarding the 3x4 keypad, whenever i press space after a word it needs to be press twice. my friends S3 doesn't do this, will a handcent or any apps for messaging fix this? or do i need to change some of the setting which I can't really find. TIA

It's in the settings of that particular keyboard.

[Q] Screen keeps waking up when I get a text message

Hello,
I have not been able to find any place to disable the screen waking up for 2-3 seconds after I receive a SMS text message. It doesn't do this for facebook, for email, for MMS, but everytime I get an SMS it wakes up which I want to stop it doing.
Anybody know where the option to turn this off is?
Side notes: I have my lockscreen disabled

disable notifications under the sms app.

How is that heloful? He's asking about stopping the screen from turning on, not the entire notification. Op as of now I don't think we can. I think I had heard a while back of an app that stopped the stock sms from turning on the screen but I can't remember at this time the name of the all

I need an answer to this aswell

You have to use another SMS program (like from play store) and disable the default, or root and use the modded apk which allows for this option to be selectable

I solved this problem using Gravity Box, in General fixes -> Fix messaging wakelock.
Good Luck.
