Find the folder: system/priv-app/message and delete everything inside it.
Now you've got no SMS app and two options:
1. Download an aftermarket app
2. Put the APK I've attached into the folder, boot into recovery, wipe the cache partition and reboot.
You could just install the standard app as a regular app too I guess.

XX I tried this when you suggested this in the discussion... didn't work.
I had a partially damaged sim. Only thing it couldnt do was send sms.
It sorta worked for me.
I deleted the stock message app
I wanted to use your message apk, but that didn't work as it was corrupted after reboot?
But as I used Google's Messenger app on my old phone, I installed that app and when I changed all the landcodes to the normal dutch mobile numbers without landcodes, it worked.
I could fully use the messenger app.
Example: I had a number +31 6 12345678
I changed it to 06 12345678
And it works!

Does anyone have the new FroYo app apk's? I installed a custom ROM and some apps were taken out that I would like. I would like the new FM radio app, car dock app, not sure if the Sprint nav was different then the old version, the newer HTC widgets, etc. Thanks for any help.
Download the rom - unzip and install via adb or sd

No idea why, they are pulled straight from the full rooted stock Froyo ROMs. Anyone have a clue why they won't work?
Original thread and development/updates here
Confirmed working on Hercules running CM9, I have not tested on other ROMS including touchwiz based ones. Flash at your own discretion, I'm not liable for bricks, etc. Read directions very carefully and it works as described.
This requires root and the knowledge of how to manipulate system apps. I will not be providing support for Root Explorer/Astro/ES File Explorer/etc if you don't know how to set it to read/write mode.
Voice search WONT work. I will update the thread if someone, somewhere gets it working.
edit:Confirmed to be "working" on non-AOSP Roms, so flash away!
edit 2: New file with less force closes and more cards! No voice search still :crying:
If flashing for the first time:
Download File
Go Into /system/app and rename GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk1 (as a backup).
Go to downloaded file
Rename from Velvet-theos0o#.apk to Velvet.apk
Copy to /system/app and change permissions to RW-/R--/R--
Reboot
Open Search widget and give it a moment to start up
Go into settings->Privacy and accounts-> enable "Search on google.com"
?????
Profit
If flashing the updated file:
Download New File
Go into Applications and clear data for Google Search
Go into /system/app and delete GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk (this should be the old version of Google Now)
Go to downloaded file
Rename from Velvet-theos0o#.apk to Velvet.apk
Copy to /system/app and change permissions to RW-/R--/R--
Reboot
Open Search widget and give it a moment to start up
Go into settings->Privacy and accounts-> enable "Search on google.com"

It was stated in the OP that Voice search, and consequently its settings would freeze the app. Network Error? Not sure about that because it searches fine for a lot of people :/

That's just a theme it won't make the dialer scale properly , go v to the play store and search for dialers. Use that one.

Also, if you set you DPI to 240, the stock dialer will look messed up.

Sorry I don't have computer with me and I can't upload file with my note.
1st . Copy file into ex card
2nd. Open root explore ( can find on play store ) / storage / ex card / hold app you want to copy / copy .
3th. Hit back button 2 time / find system / app / set permission to Mount R/W ( check on top of screen , you will see grey box with letter Mount R/O ,go head touch that box , you will see the R/O change to R/W ) / paste. Done
You have to delete old file you want to replace. ( Next time if you want to do something ,make sure move / paste file you want to replace to ex card , incase something go wrong you still have original file to copy back )

Just flash it over again and it won't cause any damage. Just select all the same things you did before besides removing the sms app. Still keeps all your stuff.

Yeah I thought of that to...but this seemed like an easier way.
Anyway...thanks for taking the time !
or use a filemanager and find the file in the rom zip you flashed, it's in system/app/ , i think Messages.apk is the right filename. extract it and copy to /system/app and make sure you've got 644 (rw-r-r) permissions on it, which should be available in the properties for Messages.apk once you extract it. then reboot. between flashing the package again or doing this, you're covered.
I´m looking inside the rom zip file...trying to figure out wich one of them is the smsapp.
The idea is to extract it and the insert it in the rom with root explorer !
EDIT: HEHE...rynfrnk...same thought !

exactly what you want to do! it's Message.apk and you'll want to make sure you didn't delete HtcMessageProvider.apk as well.. extract those out and copy to your phone's storage under /system/app and 644 the files so their perms are set and then reboot, you should be golden.
