Thanks all :p

This will clear your messages. Back them up before flashing.

Flash this at your own risk. It is working on my phone, but that doesn't mean it is guaranteed to work on yours. I am not responsible if your phone explodes, implodes, melts, bricks or anything else.

This mod is for deodexed TouchWiz

4.1.1

ROMs built from T-Mobile firmware. I don't recommend flashing it on anything else.

Built from T-Mobile files based on the guide found here.

Uninstaller now available! Just flash Uninstall_AOSP_MMS.zip in CWM/TWRP and you will be back to stock TouchWiz Messaging.

That being said, it appears to be 100% functional on my phone, MMS and SMS are working, QuickMessage is working, etc. Let me know how it works for you!

Should work on all UVDLJA/LJC TouchWiz ROMs. If you have issues, let me know and we will try and get them worked out.

Thanks to loserskater for coming up with the method that made this possible!

Added inverted MMS!

I dont know if this is too much to ask but can you offer an INVERTED version of this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Might want to add a screenshot of how things function with it. Maybe its capability to theme, settings options. Not very many people know about AOSP messaging functions

Whats different bout aosp mms?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Nabeel10:
Not to be a pain, but I have a request!

Could you make the person who texts you letter text color blue (holo)? Like how when you send a message, the text is white, and when they send you one, the letter text is blue. I think that would look nice rather than having white incoming and outgoing, but thats a personal preference...

Sent from my SGH-T999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:
Updated with some screenshots. Enjoy!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Go to the messaging app, click menu, settings, see if there is the option for Mms theme settings. If so, you can change the color of everything you want, and then some.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:
It's laid out differently and IMO looks a lot cleaner, and it also has QuickMessage, which is a popup message feature. Take a look at the screenshots and you can see it in action!

I have attached the inverted AOKP MMS to this post from Justunbean v6.1.3.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MMontanez347:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:
Have you enabled it in the quick reply settings? Which version of the app are you using (inverted or normal)?

I'll look in to it, no promises.

Glad you like it!

The inverted one...and I believe I did enable it

Sent from my SGH-T999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:
I just tested it on mine and it woke the phone. You need to make sure that Enable QuickMessage and Wake And Unlock are both checked, and you also have to be using an insecure lock screen (i.e., no pin or pattern unlock).

---------- Post added at 04:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 AM ----------

I guess you can just replace secmsg.apk via root explorer on system/app . No need to restore whole thing for a app ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] c_brown93:
OP, can you make a restore.zip to restore stock TW messaging back?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LoopDoGG79:
No need, there is your answer
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:
I'll get a flashable zip to restore stock messaging up in a little bit. Simply replacing the messaging app likely will not work, there are other modifications involved as well. In the mean time, if you need to go to stock messaging pull framework2.jar, sectelephonyprovider.apk and secmms.apk from your ROM of choice and replace them on your phone.

Edit: Just make sure you get them from a TW ROM

Unfortunately, no.

You can replace mms.apk, framework2.jar and sectelephonyprovider.apk in the ROM with files from the zip in the OP and delete secmms.apk from the ROM, just make sure you don't replace the updater script.
