Just got my x, I love it... But, I have downloaded handcent sms and now I cant find a way to turn off my as my app because I am getting double notications.. I've looked all around and can't find it anywhere.
 
Open your stock SMS app (should be "Text Messaging" in your app drawer). Click the menu/settings button (far left hard key), click Messaging Settings and you'll see "Notifications." Uncheck that box and you should be set.

You mean on the bottom of my phone? I click it but I dont see notifcations.. I must be doing something wrong.
 
yup, he means the key that looks like 4 squares

click that button, and four boxes will come up

one of those boxes says "Messaging settings"

click that one

Under the "Text messaging settings" bar, you will see "Notifications, Status bar" is checked

Uncheck it.

Done
 
I had the same problem and the above corrected it. I do have a question that may go with all this though. When I get a txt, and I go and unlock the phone, a window automatically shows up, with the txt message. Then it allows me to send a "quick" reply. I would actually like to get this to stop showing up too.
