What app is everyone using for sms?

Just curious to see what people are using besides the stock app.

I came from an iphone and always used bitesms so when I got my gn2 I went straight for chompsms. It's really all I know but I love it.

Just got my Note2 yesterday and I'm still using the stock one for now. I'm trying to turn my GN2 into a Nexus, so I'm looking for an SMS app that is as close to the Vanilla Android SMS as possible.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

i personally prefer go SMS purely because of the crazy theming features + private box

Can you send pictures with GO sms? I heard it just sends a link?

I'm using the stock sms app themed

ChompSMS, I love how it renders picture messaging to full screen. Opposed to the stock which looks more like a thumbnail. GOSMS was to convoluted with options/themes for my liking.

i dont believe it does that......

I've been using Handcent for years. I love it, couldn't use anything else.

Using AOSP messaging app. I would use the Samsung stock, but the lack of vibrate options kills it for me.

Go SMS, been using them forever. You can send pictures, but sometimes I have problems with that. Only since I rooted my phones though. It gives me an error message, something along the lines of exceeding my file size limit. I just used the stock messenger to send mms/pictures.

I am very happy with stock... first time I've ever been able to say that. Prior to that, I used GoSMS and Handsent on all of my other devices. I forgot which one of the two I settled on. I want to say GoSMS was the better of the two IMO.

GoSMS here for years and I've been happy with it.

Stock sms app with sms pop up. Great combo and I am very pleased.

Using the stock for now

Used to love them but the look of it turns me away. And for some reason when i send mms while on wifi it wont send because it doesnt auto turn data on

If you look hard enough in the settings you can change the max size to send and stop it from shrinking your pictures. But like I said before if you see d through go SMS and the received doesn't have go it comes up as a link

In sound options theres a setting for vibration intensity and pattern also on the contacts app theres options for making vibrations specifically for a contact. I think there might be a limited amount though.

It doesn't. I think it's from an older version of AOKP. I'm not really sure where it's from. I found it in the themes and mods section under a similar thread.
Edit: I'm using the APK from here and then follow the instructions here
And this recently up in Themes/Mod sections might help

I don't like the vibrate options because when selecting vibrate in the SMS app, it vibrates in sound mode and vibrate mode. I only want it to vibrate in vibrate mode like my GS3 did on ICS.

For those using Go SMS, can you confirm if Go SMS sends you push ads in your messages? When I tried Go SMS I got a spam sms from them.

Stock message...for now.

It is a Wifi Calling bug in the Note 3. There's a workaround that I'm using and works well. Download Prefixer from the market and create a rule for ";63" and it will delete the ";63", this will allow to get the contact info from the Address Book as its supposed.

Exactly how am I suppose to do that once I have the app?

This screenshot can help. In the main screen touch upper left corner and then Add Rule -> Manual -> Incoming. Then follow the screenshot.

A little off topic here but my My Messages app is not working properly everytime I receive a message the message is not coming in the correct order

I use hangouts as the default messenger... It works perfect for me.

What does the last line on you apn read? Just "default"
and also is it editable or grayed out and unchangeable?
If so you need to apply the change in this thread..

I'm having this same problem. Is there a way to fix this without being rooted? I really don't want to root and deal with the little problems that root gives you.

Messaging Preview

Is there any way with the Note 4 to turn on messaging preview? Right now it is coming up when I get a text message, but it just says New Message. Before with the Note 2, it would actually preview the message. Any help?

I figured it out. You can delete this please.

How'd you do it? I been trying to find it then gave up lol

In Messages go to Settings -> Notifications -> Then check Lockscreen under Preview Message

Oh wow thanks!don't know how I missed that... could've sworn I checked there... maybe I just thought it was a yes or no button and skipped it

Wow thanks!

Glad you got it figured out. If you want try downloading Textra. I'm sure once you use it you will never go back. It's pretty awesome and has a couple customizing options. I just loathe the stock messaging app and figured I'd share with you.

Well like the messages... my calls are also showing just "missed call" without contact info on the lock screen.. tried searching in settings but no luck.. its probably something really obvious I skipped or just looking in the wrong section lol

Settings》Applications》Messages》Notification (on) in there you can ad preview or not.

Thanks but that one was answered a few posts ago but any idea how to make the call notification show up in lock screen? Like show who called? Mine just says "1 missed call"

MMS ?

I don't mean to sound like a noob. But I've been wondering for awhile now. Why won't Samsung stock message app send pics when connected to WiFi. I always have to disconnect WiFi to send and get pics but not from most 3rd party apps. Is this just me cause I'm using GSM sim? But I think I had this problem with another Samsung phone. If someone could give me some insight that'd be awesome. Thanks!

Try textra

Thanks for your reply. But I was just being inquisitive and wondering why the stock app behaves that way.
All other phones I've had send mms whether WiFi is on or not. And like I stated already, 3rd party apps work as they should. Is it a Samsung thing or sprint?

I don't know cause ever since stage fright came out I've just been using textra due to the only text messaging app that has the protection for stage fright.
