Yea but this is XDA. It's way to easy to install or update an app via the Play Store. XDA-style, we unlock the bootloader, install the new ROM, rip the apk of the app, then host it on a filesharing service. :highfive:
Yeah what he said. Haha. It's different though. I like messenger more but all personal preference.
What's different about it that the Play Store version doesn't have?
This is not the same app, the one you linked is the Google Messenger application, what I have posted is the AOSP MMS APK. This is the MMS apk you all are familiar with from CyanogenMod, but with a material design like the new Google Messenger app.

Thanks for the app link. It's so much better than the Google messenger. I couldn't stand not having the enter key and all the random colors for people.

Thanks for the apk, I have an issue. After I install and set as default messenger app I get a "wrong APN" popup on the screen that won't clear. I'm on Sprint, any ideas?

I'm on sprint also. No such issues. Try reinstalling the app

Edit. I'm having the same issue now. Please help.

Is it possible to extract one from one of the currently available roms in the developer forums? I'm trying to get this to work on noon rooted phone.

Its not going to work on a non rooted phone. The apk must be moved to /system/app

hmm. well this one works on nonrooted phone. just the apn issue. once i pull out my sim card, the apn setting comes back, but disappears when the sim card is inserted.
I need to figure something out. The stock messenger sucks badly.

Try the following:

Set hangouts as default messaging app -> open hangouts settings -> change MMS apn to something other than what is selected by default -> change default messaging app back to original.
