Hello,
I just updated my SGS2 to 2.3.4 today and unfortunately, I seem to have lost the part that I liked the most about the messaging app: the ability to change themes. I really hate the way it looks now and would really like the plain look of one of the themes back.
Is it possible to push the older themable messaging app. to this new firmware and get the theme functionality back?
If anyone has the messaging app that supports themes, could you please pull it and attach it here so I can give it a try?
Many thanks.
+1 I miss the black theme as it goes sooo much better with my current rom. I'd be interested to know if this can be done
True. Let's see if someone can help with this
I use GoSmsPro and it has a few themes
I understand that there are alternatives available but I wish to have the stock messaging app back which supports themes I would really appreciate it if someone could pull it from their phone.
I'd like to have the stock messaging app with themes too (I wa addicted to the "funny" style..., I'm a dumbass I know...)
There should be SOMEONE with the older app
Here's what I tried:
I tried downloading an older KE7 firmware from 18th May and extracted the Mms.apk/odex and MmsProvisioning.apk/odex files and pushed them to /system/app and tried rebooting but that didn't change anything
If I try INSTALLING the new Mms.apk file it says Application not installed even if I try remounting the system as rw
Discussed before in this thread, no joy so far:

In that thread, this guy said he had a solution, but never posted the .apk:

@Cygnuss - you've posted about GoSMSPro in both threads. You're missing the point - as dexter said last time:

Does that bring back the themes in Samsungs SMS/MMS-app? I think not...

There HAS to be a solution
Yes theres a solution, after every new rom install i flash with cwm this mms fix and it restores the message themes.

Thank you so much! You're the man!
For those of you who had trouble with odexed/deodexed, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159920
And get Darky's odex->deodexed converter and install that first using DarkyRom2 Tool (available free on market)
so annoying. i want my old themes back (especially the black one). i'm guessing the app got updated, so i'd be keen to just get the them part back in...
any solution to this?
i want it tooo!!!
there's nothing like this!!
I tried the solution posted above but once you go depdexed you lose hardware acceleration in the browser and it gets laggy as hell. I guess I'm gonna have to keep on hoping for an odex solution
You could go back to 2.3.3 , really what will you be missing out?

As of right now I believe we have bigger things on our Dev priority list, (ahem ICS) but does anyone think its possible for them to extract the MIUI font, or just the emoji from it and create a flashable zip that is compatable with our phones? Not having them gave me a bit of Iphone envy...so I bought a 4 (came to my senses within a week and sold it). I think someone already created a zip but because of the whole sopa/pipa thing wherever they hosted it no longer has it for download. Thanks for help!
Have you tried Go SMS?

yeah, use it for emoji for text. I wanted them to be seen in twitter and the stock messaging app
I have all of the emoji png's. the problem is "activating" them. I placed them in the framework-res.apk, as they were in the MIUI rom which had emoji working, but since the iOS 5 update, this method no longer works on any rom.

Makes sense
Really? Didn't know you would have to activate the pngs to see them... Lost cause then? kinda like trying to run sense weather on touchwiz.

I made a thread about this the other day...There isn't a way to in JB, the reason? Because emojis are already built into the system. They're not the little Japanese ones we all love.
I solved my issue by just using ChompSms, it automatically changes them into emoji's. Which I love!
I'm pretty sure if Freeza knows about this he'll eventually come up with something. :fingers-crossed:

what did you flash? PM me because I'll probably forget about this thread, lol
This is based off iNate71's Mms at Rootzwiki.It has Quick Message, new message popup window and emoji support. I just redid them to be transparent and black. I also edited all the hard coded colors in layout.xmls and moved them to colors.xml for easy changing.
I couldn't take the white in the default app anymore. This will only look good with a dark wallpaper.
You'll need a root file explorer..I prefer root explorer from the market.
First rename Unimessagebin.apk to apk.bak and then do the same with Unimessagebin.odex.
Now that you have
Unimessagebin.apk.bak and
Unimessagebin.odex.bak
Copy over this Mms-trans.apk or Mms-black.apk and set the correct permissions then reboot.
Viola you now have a transparent or black AOSP MMS app..
saved..downlaod link added
Nice it does look alot better

It doesn't have popup support but the one ill be releasing today does and mms works with both just fine.
mms app
Just uninstall your stock MMS system app then install this one it has pop up and way better then the stock one I found in it a while back ago I can't take credit for but thought I would share it
Those look like mixer images from that screeny.
Cool you're using the theme..

Try the new black one I posted..Now with quick reply/popup/emoji/mms
Everything works. Let me know how the inverted one is.
Links updated in the OP. Now transparent and black versions with quick reply, new message popup and emoji support.

so far i find it pretty gorgeous. if u say everything works then i think i just found my text app that i'm gonna be using for the foreseeable future (at least till we can get this bootloader unlocked and see what kinda roms we can get going...even then might sub your's in still haha) i like the icon u used, instead of the flat blue one, kind of a glass look to it, and i like the smiley's it uses (the round ones instead of the droid head ones for my friends that dont have emojis) i appreciate the effort greatly...my only real gripe left with the phone so far is no good ir remote apps...if only logitech would let u put their harmony software on ur phone without their adapters and use it with the IR instead of doing it over bluetooth/wifi to an expensive adapter...quickremote doesnt have as much functionality as i would like (like my harmony but always having to charge it haha)
I don't think MMS works..I can receive fine but mine crashes when trying to send a MMS..
May need to go back to old version.
yeah, ran into the same problem. receives no problem but wont send...still crashes. any idea y it does that?

Not at all..I thought it was because of image size limits but I changed those and it still crashes..
I did find a topic on how to get aosp MMS working on the s4 and there is a chance the method will work for us also but I haven't had time to update.
The old version I have does have working MMS both ways so I will update the apks later today but it doesn't have quick reply.
I'll make an inverted one off that base to you also.

Hi there,
i like the Stock G3 Firmware but i HATE the misdesigned Dialer... so much Place for showing nice pictures is wasted with white Space...
After falshing around some CM and other Firmware i ended up with this question.
So my Question is : It is possible to replace it with the AOSP, or Cyanogen, or whatever another Dialer

Hi there,
Are you on Lollipop or still KK ?
On KK there are ZIPs for original google dialer from CM, i don't remember where, and for Lollipop it's still not stable, as you can check CyberstormXo was trying in this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/req-stock-lollipop-google-dialer-t2990813/page3
But you can stillchange dialer for another one on the play store i guess ?
Cheers !
Im on LP.
The Dialer in Playstore looks fine... and i tryed a few.
And some of them looks great... But only till the call build up, then it switches and you have the same and ugly Stock-callscreen as before.
The Dialer App in Playstore are just workarounds for the Phonebook and the "Dialer-Pad"... when you tap on the Phone to call someone all theese Dailers switch back to Stock-Call-Animation.
As is often call someone when im around with my car, everytime i have to see this ugly interface... and thats pretty annoying.
But thanks for the Link, i will follow the Progress.
Oh ok I did not get what you meant about the in-call UI, I thought about the "real" dialer sorry !
As I am with the quick-circle case, and so closed when calling, I don't see this ugly UI
Let's hope LP will begin to get hacked in many ways, like Xposed someday maybe .... !
I thinks its obsolete now...
