Running on Clean Rom 1.5 and group messages works with iphones.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
i just installed the clean rom 1.5 and installed the MEA+ zip since its MF3 and still not working :(

P.S the Build Version in setting-> about says MDL but in the Build.prop it says MF3.... How is it working for you which Zip did you install?

Yea, I installed on the MDOB MF3, and it works, but every time I select an app to be the default app, my phone reboots. Found out this was causing it by reflashing the rom and not flashing this right after.

I updated to MF3 as well, so I'll update the package using MF3 framework files (hopefully sometime today).
Thanks! Would it be possible to have 2 different themed ones? One the way it is, and the other just plain stock (white background/green messaging icon..etc)?

GREAT CPA !!!

now for this working am i suppose to flash the Clean Rom 1.5 then the MEA+ immediately after ?
First, if you're using CleanROM MF3 then use the zip I just posted above...second, DONT flash the MMS zip at the same time that you initially flash the ROM. Flash the ROM, boot up fully, then reboot into recovery and flash my zip.

Once you flash my zip, you should be able to substitute any MMS that you want as long as it is for a CM10.1-based ROM (I think someone earlier tried to use one from an AOKP build and it didn't work.

But, make sure you do so specifically as follows, or you'll probably get FC's:

1. Download the MMS.apk of choice (there are tons floating around on XDA, or you can just Google it. You can even try ones that were made for other devices, as long as the chipset is similar. Just play around with them and you'll find one that works on our phone eventually.)
2. Go to Settings>Application Manager>All Apps and scroll down to Messaging. Open and clear app data.
3. I recommend backing up your original Mms.apk however you want, either by renaming to .bak or just copying it to your SD card.
4a. First option is to use Root Explorer or another file manager to copy the MMS you downloaded to /system/app. Set permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot.
4b. If you dont want to use a file manager, just copy the downloaded MMS to /sdcard and run the following commands in ADB or Terminal Emulator (skip the first line if you use Terminal Emulator on your phone):

Code:
adb shell 
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/app/Mms.apk /system/app/Mms.apk.bak   <<< (this is to back up your original apk...if you already did, you can skip this line) 
cp /sdcard/Mms.apk /system/app
chmod 644 /system/app/Mms.apk
reboot
It wouldn't hurt to boot into recovery immediately after either method and clear dalvik-cache before you reboot.

Once you reboot (using either method), you should know pretty quick if the apk you used is gonna work...mainly, it probably won't even show up in your app drawer if it isn't compatible.

If you get FC's, try re-doing Step #2 above and reboot. If the problem persists, then apk probably isn't compatible with our phones. If anyone wants to play around with different apks using the above method, please post your results and let us know if you find any cool versions...then I can make a bunch of different versions of the mod zip for easy use by others on the future :)

So to answer your question, yes it's possible to use a differently-themed apk with this mod and yes they exist, I just don't have the time to search around for them.

Thanks for this! Its been a long time since I ran ADB, but I got everything figured out, and did all the commands and everything. I got the CM10.1 Mms.apk from the 6-30 nightly running fine, can send and receive text/mms. Question though, if I want to get this to work with the MF3 roms, do I have to do anything different? I see you uploaded a new zip, is there some type of mods or something that you did to get it to work?

Okay anyone who is on a ROM based on the new AT&T update, MF3, try flashing this bad boy and see if it resolves any problems you have been having:

If I get positive reports, I'll go ahead and add to the OP.
I just flashed this against MDOB MF3 and my phone is blowing up with crashes left and right :(

edit: Put framework2, secmms, and sectelephony back and the phone boots now, but sms/mms don't work at all. Poo, guess I'm wiping clean again...

yea still NOT working, its going haywire everything crashing :(
You're going to need to remove MMS.apk, revert the SecMMS filename, revert the framework2.jar to the .bak one, revert SecTelephony, and then go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ and delete mmssms.db, mmssms.db-shm, and mmssms.db-wal

Then at least you should be back to the original working (worked for me anyway). I guess I'll await an update :)

Crap!! I used the framework files from CleanROM....assuming that they would be the same as MDOB. I'll make the edits using the MDOB files later tonight - I'm on the road at the moment. Sorry guys.

Can someone using the MF3 CleanROM please try it and report back?
