Favorite text app? (Hangout, stock, something different) - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do you guys use hangout, the stock sms or something else?

Hangouts

Sliding SMS (cm messaging)

I use the stock app after I transferred my messages with SMS Backup & Restore.
The transition went smoothly with the stock and not so well with the GO SMS.
Still wondering if I have to try Hangouts

Evolve sms

Hangouts or nothing

Sliding messaging

I use "my sms" because it syncs with my tablet. That way, I'm not always stuck to my phone to respond to a text.

Textra.

They are all getting to look and act the same. Currently using chomp

on Note II I have been using Handcent, and now with G3 I've installed it but still using stock sms app only.

Textra currently. It seems to handle group/I message the best.

Hello is what I use. It's a simple / sweet app.

I've been using textra for quite some time. Loving it.

KitKat Hangouts apk

Pretty self explanatory. Here's the hangouts apk from 4.4. It works on this P.O.S nexus S just fine so I have no doubt it'll be fine for LGOGs.

Upon more rigorous use, all my texts were either sending really slowly or I was receiving stuff out of order. Plus the actual Internet hangout conversations weren't working :/
I can confirm the 4.4 camera and gallery work on Carbon 4.3 10/9/13 build just in case anyone was wondering.

Can you take a screenshot of the new 4.4 camera? Just curious as to how it looks.
The UI is beautiful and all, and I love the fact that I can now send SMS through it, but it needs to auto-split so I can send more than 160 characters.

Everything works flawlessly on this laggy ass Nexus S

I am unable to use voice calling
I'm guessing this wouldn't work on stock due to the Android Version?
I have it installed (4.1.2 ZVC), loading, send and receive sms but not mms... soo.

It looks exactly the same as 4.3 except for the icon... I'm on KitKat without a camera and without service right now so I can't upload a screenshot but nothing has really changed as far as I can tell.
This works great. +1 on 160 split.

Group Messaging??

I have KitKat stock rooted. Have tried multiple sms apps to get group messaging to work. No go though, I can send to multiple parties at once but when they reply it goes in to their own separate thread. Does any one have a solution to send and receive in the same group message?? Thanks.

Hey everyone. What are you guys using for mms and group messaging on this phone? I'm having trouble with the default messaging app. Thanks

Textra here also, simple and nice.

Stock Messaging App on MM

Ever since I upgraded to MM the stock messaging app is extremely leggy. Has anyone else had this issue?
I don't have this issue. May want to clear the cache.

Or get Textra, in my opinion, it is the best text app ever.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk
No problem here. Have you performed a factory reset? Other than no longer being able to change chat bubble colors, I think this messaging app works great.
