Hey everyone, here it is, the new SMS app for Lollipop.

Doesn't work well on my G2. I get a force close when I tap the + to write a new sms.

Yep, same FC here, it must require some additional libs from the Lollipop build!

You have to go to Contacts, search the contact you want to write a message and there you touch "write message". So it works.
But in the messenger app the + produces defenitly a fc.
I hope i could help you and my english was not to terrible.
Greetings

Send by my Lg G2 with G3 Rom

And then it works? Normally yes you don't install you move it to system app and change permissions to 644, rw- r-- r--

I pressume we have to rename the apk and replace the default sms app ?
I can't find the name of the default sms app ... gooling it at this moment but not found any info yet.

Edit : find out the default sms app is in Priv-app folder and name is LGMessage.apk ... but i see yours is from Google , so I'm confused.

Not working without the FC in Cloudy G3, tried it in /app and /priv-app with correct permissions. I don't have the earlier google SMS app installed, but do have LGmessenger and CM Messenger (which is just superb IMO)

Was stated by android police that unless you're on a 4.4.4 + ROM , you'll get fc.

did any of you tried playstore version? (it's been officially released on playstore today)

edit:
everything works fine with playstore version (cloudy g3 v2.1 rom, d802 variant)

only thing that doesn't work is the new message popup as in stock roms, but that was expected since it's a lg feature (new messages still show up in the status bar)

i don't know if g2 tweaksbox supports custom themes... i didn't use it since i switched to cloudy g3 ported rom (and g3 tweaksbox)

i think i saw google dialer somewhere as a standalone app, but i don't remember exactly where and if it works 100% without issues on g2...
