[Moto X Themes and Apps] MikeyNick:
So, I updated to kit kat, only to discover that with the new "Default SMS app" feature, you can't just use old SMS apps. Well, I don't really like using Hangouts as my SMS app, and the stock Mms app lacks quite a few features i really like from CM's Mms app. Plus, I really like dark themes.

Well, of course I simply tried to go ahead and use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1745830 , but because that doesn't include the new information, it isn't seen as a possible "Default SMS" app, and can't be used. Well, I wasn't okay with this...

Dug into apktool and messed around in the AndroidManifest.xml, added the appropriate bits and pieces for it to be discovered by 4.4, and recompiled, and then signed. Voila, I have a working, dark themed, CM version of 4.3 Mms, with popups and all. I've tested that both sending and receiving of sms (in app and from popup) and mms all work.

If people are interested, I can post it up for download. Not sure about all the rules though. I assume I'd have to ask for permission from the OP of that thread I linked above?

EDIT:

Okay, so I've got the 4.3 CM messaging app linked from above. I've updated it to work with 4.4 (allowing it to be a "default SMS app") and also went and modified all the smali and xml with a new package name and a couple new authority/provider names to avoid conflict with the stock app.

Final takeaway: a themed, customizable (see settings), popup-enabled, emoji-supporting 4.3 messaging app that not only works on 4.4, but can be installed without root alongside your stock Mms app. Should work on 4.2 and up, on any variant, rooted or unrooted. Simply download, install with adb or by transfering it to the phone and opening on there, and then go to settings->More->Default SMS app and enable this one (the dark icon "Messaging" one).

I tested sending and receiving sms and mms, sms both from app and popup. everything was working fine. If anyone finds an issue just let me know and provide log cat output if you can, or at least a repro case

EDIT2:

Apparently there are still some kinks I need to work out. Will try to look into it this weekend.

EDIT3:

Okay so I did the version that works on 4.4 for rooted users. This one only has the AndroidManifest edits, so there should be no issues with functionality. I've been using it for a bit now and haven't had any issues. The one labeled Mms.apk is for root users (Nothing about installing/using it requires root, but you have to uninstall the stock messaging app to put this one on). The one labeled Mms2.apk is the (currently kinda buggy) version for those without root. That one is still a work in progress.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] XTRoRDiNAiRE:
That would b awesome if u could share , now would this only work if u r rooted?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] MikeyNick:
I haven't tested, but it should work without root. You can install it just like a normal app, and it gets installed to /data/app. I suppose the concern here is getting rid of the old messaging app, which does require root. I'm pretty sure if you tried to install this alongside the stock app, it would complain about having the same package name. I'll test and let you know soon.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] BrokenWall:
Go get this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thinkleft.eightyeightsms.mms

It works great and has a dark theme option in the settings, the developer pulled the CM MMS app and made it an installable on KitKat and a few tweaks, feels just like the original CM MMS app and even has the quick reply popup option.

The blue drives me nuts now. I really like the monochromatic look of kit kat. I think I'll take this app and theme it the way I want it to look (replacing blues with grays). I'll post that and the 4.3 version I did for anyone that wants it (that one allows color customization directly from the app) later tonight probably

[Moto X Themes and Apps] infinit22:
I know. I'm talking about the op MMS app
[Moto X Themes and Apps] flashallthetime:
No I doubt it, try to install it and see what happens.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] infinit22:
Can the op post up the MMS app you recompiled to work with 4.4?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] MikeyNick:
Okay, so theming the 4.4 one is a lot more involved than I expected. I did some initial theming with xml values, got all the text the way i wanted it, but there's a lot of images i'd have to edit to get rid of all the blue, and I don't really have time for it right now. I started to, then realized using Paint was a mistake, as all the transparency of the ones I'd edited was gone, which messed up the look. I'm sure I'll get around to it eventually, but for now I'm just going to use the 4.3 Mms I made work with 4.4. Here it is for anyone else that wants it. (Couldn't get attachment to work so here's a zippy share link): http://www58.zippyshare.com/v/36354844/file.html

For some unknown reason, I could not get it to install by cp to /system/app or /system/priv-app and doing chmod, so i made a keystore and signed it and have just been installing it with adb install. You have to uninstall your current stock Mms first though (requires root). I did that by renaming to .bak. I'll see what kind of work might be involved with changing the package name, which would let it be installed alongside the stock app. I tried installing it over the stock with "adb install -r -d Mms.apk", but it complains that it's signed with a different keystore than the currently installed one. If anyone knows how to get the default android keystore I could try signing it with that.

I like this version. I see nothing in the 4.4 Mms app that the 4.3 one does not also have to offer, plus this one has tons of customization, emoji support, etc etc. You can change all the colors of text and background straight from the menu. Until we've got something similar for 4.4 I'll stick to this.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] MikeyNick:
I just noticed a little bug... I installed it on a 4.2.2 device and that device receives messages twice. No issues on 4.4 yet though... I'll look into it.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] mpetruzz:
I got this to install fine, but when i try to send an MMS it FC's on me.
[Moto X Themes and Apps] MikeyNick:
Are you on 4.4? And you set it as your default SMS app? If so, can you grab a logcat output?
[Moto X Themes and Apps] infinit22:
Just tried to install but forced closed on opening. Disabled the stock MMS too
[Moto X Themes and Apps] MikeyNick:
Bizarre... I just uninstalled mine, cleared all data from the stock app in case something was getting cached, and went and downloaded from the link and installed and it works fine for me still...

My setup:

Moto X 4.4 OTA with SlapMyMoto root (meaning 4.2.2 bootloader)

Xposed framework with XBlast and GravityBox

I also installed it on a rooted S4 running 4.2.2 and it worked, although it was receiving messages twice (figured out why, but haven't uploaded that update yet) and a "not responding" message when receiving MMS (though you could then go back into the thread and view it). I've not had any issues on the Moto X though.

I wouldn't imagine that anything in the app would need root, though I'm not gonna unroot to find out. Can you guys post some log cats and i'll look into it?

EDIT:

Just got the mms force close. I'm sure a side effect of blindly find/replacing com.android.mms in the smali. Soon I'll post a version that only has the 4.4 changes for those of you with root, and i'll keep working on the whole package name spoof for those without.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smalls_:
My friend and I are on the same carrier (T-mobile) and own the same type of phone, he has the T-Mobile S4 and I the GPE S4 (I9505G, I think?). I have the same quoted data plan as him from a pre-existing family plan and am supposed to be receiving 4G LTE service. We are both at the same location and his status bar reads LTE and mine only H (for what I assume is only HSPA(+)).

Does the GPE S4 truly not have the LTE band(s) necessary to cover T-Mo's LTE network, is this just a difference in software/labels or is this something I have to go to T-Mobile and get upgraded on my plan?

Please don't flame/troll for I am but a lowly n00b to this topic.

Is there any reason that this phone would not operate correctly on At&T towers? For some reason it gets service in certain areas, but not in others. When both should easily be covered by at&t service. I can pop the sim in another phone and it has service, but it will not pick up with the s2.

If someone has this phone set up on att or a mvno could they let me know what settings they have checked? auto gsm all that stuff?

If anyone could help that would be awesome. thank you for your time.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] warriorpluto:
Hi I was trying to use my s4 on AT&T.some people at you can edit apn out of the box without hacking but I'm not able to do it. I'm rooted on me7. What are my options?I tried to search this issue but didn't get any results back
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
You can't edit APNs if you have a Verizon SIM installed. Once you install a non-Verizon SIM, you'll be able to add and edit APNs.

At least that's how my VZ GS4 works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] warriorpluto:
I have a att sim in currently. Still greyed out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] warriorpluto:
So I need to switch to gsm mode or leave on global mode?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
OK, here's what I just did - VZ SCH-i545.

Powered it down and swapped in my european SIM.

After the VZ logo startup stuff, I get the prompt for the PIN to unlock the SIM.

Then the OS unlock PIN,

Now I have a "Non-Verizon SIM" warning and a "Roaming Network Access" warning.

My phone now says "AT&T UK". My network mode is Global. In "Access Point Names", there's just "LTE - Verizon Internet" but that's greyed out. The "+" at the bottom of the screen is now active. I press that, enter the APN, and it's ready to go.

My mobile network works and is apparently giving me a UK IP address.

So, unless there's something in the phone that's rejecting AT&T SIMs, I'm at a loss.

[Android Apps and Games] dcucko:
can you post your upnp/dlna receiver type, i need this so i can put it in description devices that's been tested on.

for casting chooser server, it's opening only to show the ads :(

and the idea of the app is, you set up once the streaming servers, and then everything will be casted there.

maybe i'll make a version for beta testers where activity screen will immediately be closed (you'll not even see the screen and the track will be casted)

Bug Report

My Cloud Cast does not work with Denon AVR (testet AVR-2113 and AVR-X4000).

Behavior is somewhat strange. The media content is not streamed to the AVR device but the control commands (play, stop, volume...) are working. So this means when i try to stream music the previous played file from another DLNA server is play again and not the file from My Cloud Cast.
[Android Apps and Games] dcucko:
i think this is the problem with dlna renderers. they can't render audio/video directly from public network. i never tested the app with hardware dlna receivers, but from what i've found on the net, it looks like it.
[Android Apps and Games] jaydee 77:
Ok for now, i've got a working solution with SoundCloud dlna/UPnP Stream and BubbleUPnP. Nevertheless I would prefer My Cloud Cast due to the smoother usage.
[Android Apps and Games] dcucko:
i think that others upnp apps actually starts local upnp server, and they act like a proxy for the renderers.

the problem with this solution is that the app will keep the wifi awake, and will drain the battery much faster.

if i find some other solution, i'll try to implement it.

thanks for the feedback.

i've tested the app with bubble upnp: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp&hl=en
