[4.4.2] AOSP MMS - Fully Customizable with IOS Emojis - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

This is for touchwiz 4.4.2.
For developers wanting to add this to their ROMs feel free. Give credit to the people I did though and not me. All I did was refind my favorite mms.apk and use Kryten2k35's files with both of their permission. If you experience the bug just reflash the zip.
Instructions
1. Download the zip
2. Flash in recovery
3. This will take care of everything for you and wipe your messages as well as make a backup on your sdcard shall you want to return to stock.

Bugs
"Service not available" when retrieving or sending picture messages. This seems to be random. With a fresh install it will either produce the problem or it won't. This is the best solution I have for this rare bug.
If messages aren't sending or even appearing when you send them go into settings > more > set "messaging" as default app.
For screenshots of what this looks like and more info about the actual app check the original thread out here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...p-custom-mms-apk-make-update-3-10-14-t2536197
Thanks to loserskater for this guide that me and Kryten2k35 both have used. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086834

Thanks to Cuzz1369 for his post with the customizable mms.apk and fernandezhjr for fixing this apk to work for 4.4.2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...p-custom-mms-apk-make-update-3-10-14-t2536197
Thanks to the original creators of this mms.apk, Team Baked who made this modded apk for the Galaxy Nexus for Xylon ROM.

Running awesome, would love for it to display messages on lockscreen.

[Request] Stock MMS app with emoji support

Looking for a complete stock MMS app that isn't themed with emoji support (like the cm10 one that was recently released). Anyone have this available? I use another ROM atm and emoji support isn't supported right now, and I prefer the stock look.

Mods please close thread. I was able to solve/find my request.

Where
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Please share it with us ...

Alright what I did was downloaded the cm10 Kang fits made and found the mms.apk in the system files. It works perfectly for bamf paradigm, but I can't confirm for any other Roms. This is cm10 work so I take no credit whatsoever for it. I would like to also mention I did this with a toro/verizon device so I can't verify if it works for GSM (even though it should).
How to install:
Using root explorer, go to system > app and find your current mms.apk and rename it to mms.apk.bak (do this step in case the new mms doesn't work, so you can rename your old apk back just in case.)
Move the downloaded apk in this post to the same folder which is system>app folder.
Restart your phone and it should be installed and working.
Edit: forgot to mention that once the MMS is installed to turn on emoji support under the MMS settings in the bottom. Any questions ask away.

It doesn't work on stock JRC03C, force closes.

Hopefully people don't get upset about me replying to an old thread but I used the above Mms.apk and found that it didn't have CM10's "Quick Reply" so I copied over the emoji pngs used by Gja88 into the newer CM10 MMS app.
Since this was the only thread that I could find with the non-Android-ified emoji I will put up my Mms.apk too. This has no Android creature emojis (instead they all look like the emoji on the iPhone) and it has CM10's QuickMessage feature.
Thank you Gja88 & CM10 for the original leg-work here, please read Gja88's earlier posts. I have only tested it on my LTE GNex running CM10 M2

[Q] another messaging app like beanstalks

Hello all, I've finally found a 4.4 rom that had held my attention for longer than usual. It's a lot to do because of the messaging app on this rom which has some extra and a special features I haven't noticed been able find elsewhere. Particularly it's the theme settings and ill try to post some SS below incase this sounds new to some people. What I'm trying to figure out is can I either A.) Install beanstalks messaging apk into another rom and have it work as it should or B.) If not does anyone know of any other roms with the same theming options. Thanks to anyone who can help out.

Shameless bump, upgrading to desperate nudge. Here is a little info I what ive done/tried so far. I installed the omni tmo test rom and then extracted the messaging app from beanstalk rom and replaced the apk in omni set permissions rebooted and everything worked perfect including the theming portion I desire. I then flashed the latest cyanogen 11 nightly because the omni rom is still quit a bit buggy. Performed exact procedure on the cyan nightly as I did with omni and it works fine, until I press the the theme option in the app settings, I immediately get a "sorry, messaging has closed" error. Anyone know why perhaps or a possible anything I could try to fix this? Thanks for listening.

[ROM][4.4.2 TW] Community Rom

Okay lets get this out of the way now. You need to post what release you are on when you report issues. There are many different releases and I cant/wont help you if you dont give me the information I need to help you.
FYI: I will not add native hotspot hack. There is a published mod on how to do it yourself. The reason why is below.
Sprint says if you want to tether then you must pay an additional fee for it. It is in your sprint contract if you want to look it up. Almost all mobile providers do this.
Read this which is what you agreeded to by getting service from Sprint.
https://manage.sprintpcs.com/output/en_US/manage/MyPhoneandPlan/ChangePlans/popLegalTermsPrivacy.htm
Now they may not file charges and just terminate your service. It is in there power and right to file legal charges if they want to.
For users with power off charging issue!
You will need to upgrade your bootloader to NE2 for the power off charging to work. This will also give you a tripped Knox counter in download mode and void your warranty but if you flashed this or any other rom that you have already voided you warranty.
Another simple OP for now.
What is Community Rom. Well it is my own personal project that will take any and all help from our L900 users. I have started with the stock NE2 rom and will slowly evolve it into a S5/N3 rom. It will have all kinds of fixes, mods, tweaks, and themes from anyone who want to help.
Where the rom is right now.
Well the first Alpha release is basic. Pure stock NE2 except for the S5 systemUI.apk and root. I even forgot to remove KNOX in the first alpha. The stock samsung kb is giving constant FC's. Just push through the setup and then change to swipe kb (preinstalled) or whichever keyboard you like (the LG Keyboards do not work).
Please use Philz 6.07.9 recovery...
http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/l900
Flashing Instructions
1. Download rom and verify MD5sum
2. Place rom on phone (if not already)
3. Backup anything you need/want that is in your internal sdcard
3. Backup current rom
4. Factory reset/Format for new rom
5. Under mounts choose format /data /data/media (this is your internal sdcard)
6. Reboot into recovery
7. Flash rom and reboot
The first boot will take a long time so please wait. Also the phone will be a little sluggish for awhile (it has to setup itself).
If you have not taken the 4.3 or 4.4.2 OTA/ODIN and not flashed the wifi fix you will need to do so to be able to use wifi. This file must be flashed via Pc and Odin only. It will not work with mobile Odin.

I like when people are straight-forward and to the point. Sorry if anyone feels I don't have a sufficiently lackadaisical attitude. Since OP called it a "community ROM", I assumed that the community was free to provide feedback or help in development. Take note of key phrases like "Things that I think should be added" and "All in all, great ROM". Any discontentment was clearly directed towards Sprint & Samsung. I simply don't understand why they choose to include "features" without giving users the power to turn them off.
I personally don't use SFinder because it does a lot of background scanning when installed. Quick connect is nice but a whole lot slower than simply plugging in a USB. With that in mind, I've attached a flashable zip that should remove those extra buttons for those who don't want them and fixes the WiFi icon. It seems to work; let me know if anything is wonky.
Here's a couple screenshots:

Systemui.apk with modified (correct 4g icon)
tx_dbs_tx said:
As most of you already know the 4G icon in community 1.1 beta has a minor flaw which has the 4G icon overlapping the data flow arrows. So I fixed the 4G icon inside the SystemUI.apk and made a flashable zip for people who want to get the stock 4G icon back. I also changed the color of the up/down data flow arrows for easier viewing. They are green and orange like the old style icons. I used the Community 1.1 SystemUI so this is tested and good to go for this ROM. It will likely work on other similar ROMs but I can't be sure that it won't break anything so do so using your own judgement..

How to check MD5
Use Es file explorer find your file and long press it. Now you will see a check beside the file. Press the more option on bottom bar and choose properties. On the popup window press show check sum and check the box for md5. Then press calculate. This should match the MD5 listed in the OP under your versions download link.
I will post set by step pictures later.

Aroma File Manager
Okay guys here is the meat for your philz recovery. Unzip the this and place in your clockwork folder on your external sdcard. It will work on your internal but if you wipe internal (like you should every flash) you will lose it. Once you place it there boot into recovery and double tap a blank part of the screen.
There is one tiny issue with this. Every so often when changing directories it will kind of hang. Dont worry if you see this just touch the screen and it will work.
I will put this on android file host later.

Guess I would say this one. Only thing not working is samsung KB. If you can go without wifi or MMS then I would suggest S5-FEAT. I will be updating this tomorrow sometime hopefully. Giving it a quick once over with S5 apps and a few special things TBA.

Yes wifi works here. On both roms some users have reported a sim issue which I did get a couple of time. I then went to a different modem (ljc) and have yet to see it in the past 2 days.

Most likely the modem that works best for a person will depend on his/her area as well as coverage. You'll have to figure out on your own which modem works and performs best for you.

You think the n3 features will be a flashable zip too? Still on beta 2.3 and seems solid. Had a few hiccups today but a reboot fixed it.

Yeah, I was thinking of switching over to this rom then adding the n3 features.
Only issue I had was in contacts. Wasn't showing them, then closing out. After I rebooted I also wiped cache and all seemed OK. Will try to replicate it and pay more attention then post in the thread provided.

I don't know if you already know or if I've flashed the updated rom wrong but I found your Alpha-2 download. I flashed it but can't get past the setup. the touchwiz homescreen fcs when you hit finish. I'm going to try dirty flashing over Alpha-1 and see if that helps any.
