What happened to Handcent SMS?
 

It's no longer in the Marketplace. It was the best SMS app by far. I see the font packs, but not Hancdent itself

Ok, I answered my own question. The Hancent forum said the marketplace was having issues, they posted it themselves. I HIGHLY recommended this app. It gives you the iphone txt messaging with a lot of customizing options.

let me know how it works out for you. it kept giving me issues yesterday so i uninstalled it. kept a notification icon on even after reading the txt msg. also would not stay as the default msg app even after i made the changes in settings. i dunno, may try it again later or maybe try chomp.

If I wanted iPhone text messaging I would buy an iPhone. Just messing I had to say it.

It is a cool sms app. U can remove the the option of notification on the top left of the screen n it still makes audible sound

How do you install this? I emailed the .apk to myself but can't preview...or atleast don't think I can. This is my first Android phone. :razz:

Re: What happened to Handcent SMS?
 

Goto the market and install "appinstaller" or Astro file explorer... use one of those to install the .apk Be sure to have the .aok saved on your sd card first.

whats this .apk needed to be installed for when u can install directly from the market .. im cornfused

Re: What happened to Handcent SMS?
 

works good for me. if u connect to the computer its much simpler than the instructions in the link. Downloaded the apk to my desktop. dragged it to my sd card, used Astro to open and install. took 5 mins
