Getting rid of default sms?

Okay, so I installed Chomp SMS because it actually vibrates when I get a message =P and so I want to get rid of the default sms as it is annoying to see 2 notifications once I get a text. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks in advance.

[Q] SMS notification reminder

Hello Everyone,
Does anyone know of a way to get the Captive to do a reminder that an unanswered SMS message has come in? My old phone would chime every 5 minutes until I read the message and this was kind of nice.
Thanks

check out an awesome app named handcent.

I should install that on my husband's Captivate. He NEVER checks his notifications and sometimes it goes days before he gets my texts.

Stock SMS app does not support this. Most have gone to 3rd party apps, most popular being Handcent.

Missed Reminder is a good app if you still want to use the stock SMS app.

Thank you, I'll give that a try.

handcent SMS has a option where if u didnt check the message u can set a reminder...i set mine to every 5 minutes

I use tasker and it works awesome!

That's what I use and it works great for SMS, MMS and Gmail. Only gripe is that it doesn't support regular e-mail.

Wrong sms timestamp

Time stamp on sms received msg is wrong how do we fix this
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App

Is it of a year ago or what? Be clear please. The sms timestamps are correct here, but if you reply within seconds (same minute) the reply appears above the last received message, that's an app fault, nothing we can do about

no not for xda app ..sms timestamps are wrong for me they are right but for the person who texts me its is like 4 hours wrong

I'll assume you are on Rogers or Fido as their network has this issue with unbranded phones. You'll need to download SMS Time Fix from the Android Market and have that run in the background.

thanks will try

Use Go SMS Pro
it has the option to correct this
plus it is the best SMS app

The last time I checked, Handcent did not offer the option to adjust time stamp. The choice is to use SMS Time Fix with the stock Messaging app or to use Go SMS Pro.

SMS Send and Receive sound

There a way to have a send and receive sound while using the SMS/Message app? Just like the notification when using an iphone?
Thanks.

I used to do this on my old galaxy which was amusing to confuse colleagues. Do a search here on xda and you will find a whole host of ringtones available to download. Simply copy them files to the correct folder on your device and away you go!

thanks for the reply.. I am not looking for the sound. But I am looking to see if the feature of the send and receive notification while using the messaging app is possible.

Try Textra - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.textra&hl=en_GB
It makes a sound when an SMS is successfully sent, and can display a 'Sent' and 'Delivered' confirmation below each message.
