Help Turning the stock message client OFF...

[Vicdude]

Hi Guys,

I have just updated to 2.2 and I am now receiving the age old hassle of 2 message notifications. Now I know that I need to disable the message client but I cannot for the life of me remember how to do it.

I have Handcent installed

Could someone post a flow method please. Something like:

Settings>etc>etc>etc

Sorry if it's been done but I can't find it!! Loads of references to turning it off but I can't for love nor money work out how to do it!!

Cheers, it appears I am having a techno dummy day.... it happens

So you can only remove the notifcation (client still works in the background but with no widget you would never know)

Goto .... Messages, MENU button, Settings, Received Notification - untick.

I have those days all the time.

I'd already done that but the problem persisted, hence the post. Thanks for replying though

I am having exact same problem with my Desire and Handcent. Will do search as well.

Ah K no worries, sorry, I didn't realise you'd already tried it

That is a weird one as that's all I've done and I just get the one notification (from Handcent).

Is it purely the sms received notification ? You don't have sent / failure ticked do you ?

OK. So for now I have unticked all notifications for stock messaging and am not getting double notifications ringing but still get messages saved for stock. Just means once in a while I have to open it up and delete messages in stock messaging.

Yeh all messages in handcent are in the stock app too, Handcent is essentially just a highly customisable frontend to the existing message app (afaik).
