Hello all! If you've ever wanted to use the CM12, CM12s, or CM based ROM's stock messaging app (mms.apk) because of the theme engine and noticed that your MMS pictures were terrible quality then this is the fix for you!
By default the pictures are formatted to be downsized to 480x640 causing it to get super pixelated. With this modded Mms.apk the resolution was brought back up to 1920x1080 and the images aren't pixelated!
This was tested on my OPO, but testing on other CM12 powered devices would be appreciated!!
Step 1:
Download for CM12: Mms.apk
Download for CM12.1: Mms.apk
Step 2:
Move Mms.apk to /system/priv-app/Mms and overwrite the original apk.
Step 3:
Change permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot!!
I used apktool and the apk files from Exodus (awesome ROM, you should check it out) so big thanks to @iBotPeaches (and other contributors) for the lollipop supported apktool:
http://ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/
Special thanks to @froggymike911 for the CM11s MMS fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/low-res-mms-fix-t2822970
What problems you can run into:
-It will say "There is a problem parsing the package" if you try to regular install. This is a file that MUST be pushed manually to the system.
-If the apk doesn't install, try to use a different file explorer w/ root privileges. ES File Explorer is the one I use (and recommend )
Enjoy using the stock messenging app!!
For anyone curious, installing this on CM12.1 nighties causes FC when trying to enter messaging settings. Do not install.

If you want me to make it for cm12.1 pm me
Why not just make it and post it as there will probably be people looking for such thing. If you make it, I'll test it out for you.

No problem, I was just giving anyone running 12.1 a heads up it doesn't work.

Just gonna report that sending MMS doesn't work for me on CM12.1.
I believe it's more operator related on the size than just the app. It gets stuck on sending. Back to google messenger for me.

It's not going to work IMO. Operator are setting up max size of MMS. For example, my operator/ provider offer max 300kb picture in MMS.

What is your operator? It depends on what your operator can send as a max amount of data. Also, if you update to a certain nightly build on CM 12.1 it will stop working (I sold my OPO so I can't test anymore ).

This was achieved through multiple xml edits. I have taken the 2.3.5/2.3.7/4.0.4 Mms.apk(with added SMS Split) and completely inverted it so it looks like the black version.
I wanted to share this with all users interested in a up-to-date Black stock Mms.apk from 2.3.5/2.3.7./4.0.4
Mainly the reason I wanted this updated to 2.3.5/2.3.7/4.0.4 is for the latest quality and reliable split (with a supported framework).
On some ROMs, namely stock, the SMS split option does not show in options but it does split and is turned on by default.
This APP will work on stock and AOSP ROMS. As long as you have root.
INSTALL:
DEODEXED ROMS:
Download Black_Mms.apk below and install like normal, through package installer or push to /system/app/
STOCK-LIKE ODEXED ROMS:
Flash the one you want:Black_Mms-2.3.5.zip, Black_Mms-2.3.7.zip, Black_Mms-4.0.4 through custom recovery (This zip will push Mms to /system/framework/, allowing preferences to stay intact upon reboot)

Ok. Its cause your running odexed. Push the app to /system/framework/. It should be in the same directory as framework-res.apk. make the permissions the same.-->chmod 644 /system/framework/Black_Mms.apk.
This will create a classes.dex for it, allowing settings and preferences to stick.
Gimme a few, i will make a zip especially for odexed roms that pushes this to /system/framework instead of /system/app

No comments? FIRST TROLOLO
I'll test and report any bugs
Edit. So far so good, this ROM is different which is a really good thing! Those list animations, Sense/iOs7 like recent apps and everything is just wonderful! I have few things that I didn't like and hope you will fix them:
1) The keyboard is English/Korean, could you change it to official Google Keyboard so that there's no Korea mode always on and so that there are other languages (because now there are no Finnish letters "ä", "ö" and "å"!).
2) the recents panel. If I'm in browser and long press home button to get to the recents panel, it won't show the browser in recents like it should. Also either make the small pictures larger or make it so that I can see more recent apps at once!
Also a feature request: can you add different transition animations?
Awesome ROM, keep up the good work and I hope you'll work on those things I said above
Edit2. Funny, settings says that my phone is suddenly SHW-M440S (the Korean version of S3) instead of GT-I9300. Hmm...

That will be the kernel's problem.
If you are running a custom kernel, try another kernel that ONLY supports cm 10.1 NOT cm 10.2
The kernel's ramdisk init.rc is the blame.

If you flash dhacker gapps from link below yes you can enable Art. It runs a bit faster as I noticed and no errors.
I been running this since last night and i see it runs good.
This is a report i can provide since testing this rom for over night.
Clean flashed MB886 11/12/2013 Build.
Flashed latest ART-Compatible-Gapps-dHacker29.
Switched to ART. Reboot took a while as expected.
Same transition bug as in a few builds earlier on cm10.2
Plenty of Interface-related settings are missing
Video streaming services don't work on Hi Def videos
MXPlayer complains it can not play video using HW / HW+ video decoders, only SW decoder works
Front camera isn't working.
External SD card is there. :good:
But is NOT writing still :silly:
A probable side effect of ART: can't get root any longer
FIX:
How to maintain root using ART\-_-/DALVIK
1. Make sure your currently in dalvik mode.
2. Download SuperSU
3. Update the binary
4. Check it's option for "survive OTA"
5. Reboot using ART mode
Ok after many tries on Art and going back to Dalvik. I can say I totally lost root with no way to re-root the device again. I have tried zip files, motochopper, Myth Tools etc... and no root eventhought it does flash superuser. I guess I will go back to AOSP for now

Hey guys - the only reason I root is to apply adaway and change the build.prop file to enable tethering. I realized I could do that with a flashable zip file now, and have no need to root. You can keep using Android pay, etc. Best of both worlds.
Attached is the recovery flashable zip. This will overwrite your /etc/hosts file and your build.prop file with the stock build.prop plus noprovisioning edit. I assume it will work on any phone - but be sure to backup first.
Also, I don't know a ton about how to make these zip files, so I used the MOAAB zip file as a template. Therefore, ignore the messages that come up when you flash the zip about reverting to stock, etc.
EDIT: So, I realized the build.prop needs to come from whatever build you have installed. I've updated the file with the build number that it will work on.
Thanks for sharing this!
I wants this ... for the N preview! Thanks!
