So I figured out how to send and recieve sms on the V410

This will only work if you have texting on your carriers data plan.
BACK UP FIRST because you'll be editing the build prop..
I am not responsable for your lack of understanding if you boot loop.

1) First, you can download one of these mms apks from this thread and install: (mms will not work though, only sms)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...hemed-apps-kitkat-4-4-2-mms-apk-dark-t2519733
Or you can use Google Messenger: (my preference because mms works)
http://www56.zippyshare.com/v/EyGnHgRz/file.html

2) Next download this Xposed Module and enable, but don't reboot yet:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.makuser.nexussms

3)Then with a build prop editing app like Build Prop Tweaker
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ksharkapps.buildproptweakerlite, edit this line in the buildprop:
telephony.sms.send
Change from false to true then save.

4)Reboot.

5)Now when you open up the mms app or Messenger you'll have to set it to default unless you want to use Hangouts.

6)Text freely

Mms will NOT work on stock KitKat messaging apps do to limited apns on the device. Google Messenger has built in apns which allows for mms and sms.

BONUS:
Transparent and Blacked Out Google Messenger.

I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR ANY APPS OR MODULES IN THIS THREAD!! Only the method needed for this tablet

hey

I tired the steps but when I am changing the telephony from false to true. It just go back to false. Is it because my lg g pad is still locked on a network and not recognizing the sim that is in?

Because your build prop is not saving it. You HAVE yo use a build prop editing app, not the one in the root file managers.. Also if your data plan doesn't include texting it won't work.. Maybe it will work with a 3rd party text service, but haven't tried.

This happened to me when I tried to change from false to true without rooting the tablet. After I did the root, it worked fine.

SMS

I tried the method above to no avail. I was on the stock ROM and rooted. I flashed the Candy5 ROM as mad_g can "text SMS with out problems!!" from that ROM. Still no joy on texting from this tablet, although I do like the Candy ROM, so thank you lol. I'm on AT&T with unlimited texting. I tried multiple SMS apps including Google Messenger. The text shows as sent, but is never received on the other end. I tried with WiFi both on and off. Am I missing something obvious?

**Edit**
I have since confirmed that I have flashed the LP 5.1 version of the Xposed framework, but now, I go into the buildprop editor, and I do not have a "telephony.sms.send" option.
I still think I am missing something obvious...

I had trouble at first, but realized i had to install Xsposed framework first THEN install the sms enabler module. it worked flawlessly after that and rebooting. Can't figure out how to receive calls yet but that's a separate thing lol

I tried what you suggested and still no luck. The issue now is I do not see "telephony.sms.send" in any build prop editor.
