I don't believe you can. You can turn off the stock messaging app but if you use a variety of messaging app then it will ask you which one you want to use and ask you if you want to use one always or just once. That is normal.

[Q] Smileys button in stock Message App.

Hey all, just giving you the heads up that I am a n00b when it comes to android, however I think I have read as much as I can on this issue and can't quite find what I am looking for, so.. time to ask you guys!
When I was using the stock (2.1) firmware that came with my Galaxy S, the stock Messaging application had a button for 'Smilies' which I could use to quickly add a in a text message.( or others if I long pressed the keyboard button)
I have recently flashed the the Doc_Kalpik Froyo JP6/JPM V6 ROM.
Now when I use the 'stock' Messaging application the 'Smilies' button has been replaced by a 'carriage return' key, which don't get me wrong isn't all that bad, but I am wondering how I can change it.
I am using Swype, but from what I understand this isn't necessarily a 'keyboard thing' or a 'Rom/firmware' thing as much as it is a 'Messaging application' thing.
Apparently there is a good messaging app (Handcent) that allows me to change some of the keys on the keyboard, but I would like to try to use the stock Messaging app if possible.
I can still access the smiley menu through the 'settings' key while typing a message, but I just wan't to know if I am able to toggle this keys functionality without requiring a new keyboard/messaging app.
Thanks in advance.
I guess no one knows what I am talking about?

No bubble mms w/5mb and 2560x1920 limit...

Ok this is a modified Mms.apk with 5mb send/receive limit and also 2560x1920 picture resolution send/receive. I hated being sent high res pics and only being able to save them at 640x480...
you need to go into the Mms settings and under "Custom User-Agent" select "Custom" then enter any name you want for the custom user agent... You might need to restart the messaging app, but I tested it and was able to save at full 2560x1920 ...
I'm going to post the modded Mms as an update.zip to flash with clockwordmod.
It's only been tested on froyo.
you might need to clear messaging data...
settings>applications>manage applications>All>messaging>clear data
let me know if it works for you...
Sorry for the noobness but how do I get to the mms settings? Im using the VIPER froyo rom.

Sorry i should have explained it better...
Just open the messaging app and press the menu key and go into settings and scroll down till you find "Custom user-agent"...

Sweet, exactly what I was looking for, thank you!!!

So does this get rid of the bubble type look for texts and reverts it back to normal?

make sure it flashed correctly...
make sure you are in the all threads screen in the messaging app. then hit the menu soft key and go into settings. you need to scroll down, it's towards the bottom... in fact if you scroll all the way down in the settings menu the "custom user-agent" settings will be in the top of the screen...
Hope this helps...

I works fine for me...
did you clear data and change the custom user-agent settings?
also try flashing it again or use the sdx stock app remover to push it and replace the current Mms.apk.

I just noticed that my phone doesn't vibrate and play the notification tone on sms with this mms.apk.
I checked the vibrate always option in the settings.
Can someone else with this mms mod please chime in? I am wondering if this is the culprit.
Just you man.

MMS / Messaging App Vibrate Option?

Ever since the Captivate (and other Galaxy S phones? not too sure) got updated to froyo the option for "Vibrate on Notification" has been gone. Is it possible to put that option back into the newer MMS.apks? I used to use the "Vibrate Tools" app from the market to use my own vibrate patterns but since that option has been gone the pattern mixes up with the TouchWiz messaging app pattern.
I believe the aosp mms has it, cause I'm using samsung's right now, and it doesn't vibrate. But samsung can easily delete selected texts

Indeed it does but I liked using the stock TW version. So I was wondering if it was possible to do that on it..
On Mosaic II and it sucks it can't vibrate when I get texts.

Wait, what? My phone vibrates when I get texts and always has. Is there any reason why you don't want it set globally? As in, settings > sound > Vibrate set to Always?

You might just have to ask the app developer if he can look into it. Otherwise not sure.

[Q] Notification for every app

I wonder how or if there is an app that can separate the notification sound for each app like What'sapp will play a different sound from the messaging app?

Don't each of those apps have a setting to choose the sound?.

Yes but as soon that I set one of whatsapp it set it for all of them , SMS email system, the same sound I set for Whatsapp.
oh. Whatsapp, messenger, hangouts all have different tones for me. Are you using a custom ROM or any other app you think may interfere with sounds? /

Now. At least you know that you don't need another app for what you are trying to do. :good:

You right. With Audiko, every time you set a notification for 1 app it change it to the main notification on the phone so the key is to go back and change it to something else then you get the ringtone in the list and you can reselect.
All of the above is correct but i use lightflow on most of my phones which manages all notifications individually

I'm pretty sure you're going to need root to use that method.
No root required to disable apps. However, to remove them, then the phone needs to be rooted.

Subject line of the thread linked says Root not required, but sure!
Tried it out just now, thanks for linking it @blkghost22, I've been trying to find a way to disable certain things and this did it!
Stock Music app sometimes comes up when I connect my phone to the car via Bluetooth, and there wasn't any easy way to disable it
I also recommend going to Filter, typing ATT, and disabled all that crap too - I've done everything except Knox, Remote Support, and Usage manager.... someone needs to come up with a safe list of apps to disable to debloat this device, it would be very helpful!
Will this let me disable stuff like the built in browser? Because there are some aid that the phone just won't let you disable which I find really dumb.

It should, I don't know the title of it from an APK or package standpoint (I know it's called Internet, but I can't find it searching right now), but once you find it, you can disable it
EDIT - SBrowser is the name of it

Okay, I can't read. I'm sending thanks X 2 to Charlotte, NC.
I'm at 55 apps disabled so far, and I don't think I'm being all that aggressive with disabling TW / Samsung / ATT features..... Anyone know of a good safe list for this phone yet where we can really speed this thing up? Not like it really needs it, but there's lots of hidden crap on it running we know about but haven't been able to disable previously

You mind sharing what you've disabled? I've done a lot manually. Haven't gotten a chance to test out the above program but I don't think I got anywhere near 55...

Honestly, and I appreciate you looking to me for advice, I don't think I'm the best one to go off of, I know that nothing I've disabled was going to crash my phone, but it's all that TW / Samsung / ATT features like I was saying - the program allows you to filter by text used, even if in the middle of a package name, and that helped a few times tracking down some odd APKs
I read on Forbes that the S6 has 56 apps of bloatware on it, and I'm at 55 disabled apps, with a lot of TW / Samsung / ATT features still running, so most likely that was a list of what they could see from the app drawer or something....
Nothing from me. Just wanted to see if people actually tried it. If it worked then go thank the dev or programmer of that debloating app.
