[APP]Disable SMS to MMS Conversion

I have not created this App this app has been ripped from other Forum thought this may help as it did for me so i am just sharing it here as i did not find it here
Disable SMS to MMS Conversion
This modification disables the incredibly annoying "feature" that Samsung chooses to add to its messaging app, where any SMS message of a sensible length (ie. longer than 3 SMS messages) will be converted into an MMS message.
A brilliant idea for those who pay for each message they send, as 3xSMS is about the cost of an MMS, which can carry much more text. Unfortunately for Samsung, they're a few years too late here - most people don't pay for their SMSs individually any more. And they likely would need to pay to send an MMS.
Enter this modification, which lets you send long messages again without issue.
Attached is the LEGACY version of this plugin for Xposed API 2.0 RC2. DO NOT USE THIS VERSION. Use the up-to-date one in the download manager.

disable sms to mms conversion
Thanks all for help so far.
The Creation mode doesn't seem to make a difference. Reason I want it disabled is because my company don't allow MMS, so long SMS just change to MMS and fail to send! I was wondering why this guy hadn't replied to my text........
I have tried the Application, and it appears to install but makes not difference. Reading more it looks like I need to use that general Tweaking app, and that you need Root?
Please confirm, because I cannot root my phone as I need to use Good, and my company have Good set to not run on Rooted devices.
I'm really not bothered about having to use another app, as I already use Whatapp wherever I can to keep my SMS (which I have to get billed by text for) down, so would prefer not to have two seperate 'Text' apps, further to the core Android one, which I am generally pleased with?
Solutions appreciated... or, is there an app that brings all Whatapps, texts and Emails into one 'stream' that you can disable SMS to MMS on?
XDA rules...

The app needs xposed framework to run. You have to be rooted to install xposed but once installed and activated you can unroot again. I don't know of any way to disable the mms conversion without rooting first

I'm a little late on here, kind of a noob when it comes to this as well, but anyways so i've installed xposed installer and got a couple modules to download, install and work properly but when i try this one, i get "Parse error". Any ideas? I absolutely HATE that Samsung has this limit!

You can use wannam xposed from the play store, it has this option in it. Sounds like a bad download though

Based on what I know about facebook... (evil) That's actually really freaking creepy that it takes over all of your texts. No thank you, I'm uninstalling... even if you can turn it off.

i tried that FB home launcher , and Im not impressed at all.
first of all is huge battery drainer.
yesterday that thing killed my battery for less than 6 hours.
also not like the onscreen animation (picture motions) ..

Facebook Home is available on Play store
Facebook Home is available on Play store outside of US from today as an app!!
For the one's who need it as app!! Go grab it
I installed till!! Just like a theme.. Hope this is more apt to the social networking freaks...
Facebook took the advantage of Andriod Open source and played with it!!
Install it just to give a new look for sometime to your mobile!

Any good SMS popup apps??

I've tried a few SMS popup apps but none seem to work. I like the stock messaging app but would like to have the screen wake up when a text comes in.

Chomp SMS is a complete SMS app that's fully customizable with the pop-up option. There's also sms pop up... Both have free versions in the play store.

I'm not sure exactly what is meant by a popup app, but Ninja SMS is working great for me.

What I meant by popup is the notification method.
I would like my screen to turn on with a text box that I can reply to vs having to open the app.

I've always used Go SMS. The ads are worse now than I remember them being (but still not terrible).. So I paid the $5 to get rid of ads. Its a good texting program. No real complaints.
You can also use Facebook messenger for texting too.. if you want system-wide chatheads

I don't have it configured that way, but I believe Ninja SMS is able to put a popup on your lockscreen. I'm not sure if it will wake it though.

Yes it does, you can set it to unlock the phone automatically in settings.
That said, I've since switched to Textra, which also wakes the device but sadly does not unlock the screen, so the popup only appears while you're working on the phone already.

I'd recommend 88sms
It was developed by the CM team and has a very stock feel to it.
Plus it has the popups, screenwake, Emoji support, dark theme, and more.

Just tried out 88 and I'm really liking it compared to textra. However, it doesn't have support for Apple emoji icons does it? My whole family uses them and I'd like to be able to send them back

OFFICIAL Hangouts V2 w/ SMS/MMS

The Official Hangouts v2 with SMS/MMS is on the Play Store

MMS works PERFECT on VZW, as does video hangout.

And, as @imablackhat revealed, the Play Store isn't offering the latest version (v2.0.122 (904984-30) to everyone, which actually features SMS/MMS.
As of right now, you're linking to version 1.2.018 (without SMS/MMS).
BTW, the Play Store link doesn't mean much when users from different countries may not be able to access it anyway.

Hi everyone,
Let's keep it friendly please, no need to bicker over something as little as an APK post
This post, however, is indeed correct:

Google is pushing out Hangouts 2.0 at a different rate across the country so even by linking to the Play Store link it does no effect if Google has not pushed Hangouts to that usergroup yet.

I disabled messaging in application manager. By hitting turn off. I'm stock no root. I just want hangouts not messaging. Hopefully this won't hurt anything? Thoughts?

I haven't tried disabling it, but I cannot see that it would cause issues. I have not disabled/"turned-off" mine, but I also haven't had it open up randomly either after disabling all notifications for it.

Doesn't really make a difference unless you actually use hangouts. Otherwise it's just another SMS app.

AOSP Email + Exchange

I really dislike the stock E-mail app's rich text composing window. It screws up my Swiftkey typing and makes composing or replying to e-mails painfully slow.
I have always liked the simplicity of the AOSP Email app for my Exchange, so I finally found one that works on the G3:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/29015-app-mod-exchange-security-bypass-no-pinno-admin-android-41-v60/
This also has the advantage of not requiring a PIN. If you are looking for a free solution, this is for you, otherwise I'd recommend you check out Nine. I loved it, but don't want to pay $10 for it unless work does it for me.
I flashed ExchangeNoPIN-v6.0.zip

Excellent... Thanks.

Love the stock app but it definitely has issues with swiftkey... The no pin exchange had been out for a long time but the stock app will be missed!

I did that and it still broke SwiftKey for me. Didn't seem to make a difference in the way the composing window looked.

Because I have rules setup on the server, the stock Android implementation (and LG's) really aren't enough for me. I need the individual folder syncing, but I also need an "all mail" view, where it's a consolidation of all the folders. Touchdown does this right. Beyond that, the only Android device I've had that does this is the M8. I wish more would jump on the bandwagon.
