Hi there, I am getting sick with current SMS built in applications for my HTC HERO. Is there any good SMS application I can download? Tried out handcent but I didn't like it. Thanks!

5s delayed during sent / receiving sms! beside that, after reading sms, it will show as unread still under notification section.

I haven't experienced that before. On n1, desire, magic
I don't keep old msg, maybe you store too many sms

You storing too many messages? I experience super lag when deleting over 2k worth of messages... so its a good thing to have automated message delete software or delete them yourself every week or so... smile.gif

I think it is your setting problem. Or maybe you have more than one SMS software running in the background.

that's the issue... i've been having the same issue as TS and still find that the messaging isn't as good as the old 3310~ although there isn't a perfect app now, don't use more than 1 SMS app will lower the problem of need for clearing notification manually~

yes you can. just remove the app from /system/app folder. of course you have to have root.

i still prefer chomp over handcent.
