If I have GoSMS on my phone, can I remove the MMS.apk and still send text, and MMS?

I'm gonna go on and guess MMS.apk is a system app. Don't remove system apps.

Well it is, so here's the problem I am having, every time I launch messaging, it prompts me to use GoSMS, or Messaging, and I tell it to use GoSMS, and check the box that says default, but after a reboot, it does it again.

I don't know how to fix that. Try clearing defaults on GOSMS after setting it as defualt, then reset it as default, then reboot. I can only suggest ideas.

you should still be able to text and all that but the features tied to the mms.apk might not appear

I have done this in the past with no problems.

sometimes it breaks multimedia messaging. however, text will always work.

But proceed with caution. I did this with the intercep and even though i did a restore and put stock back on it permanently took photos and video sideways and there is no fix. I'd be livid if i did that to a 300 phone. Please post your usage and uploading findings if you decide to risk it

Did you try freezing MMS.apk with something like "App Quarantine (ROOT)", instead of uninstalling it?

I actually uninstalled it, and texts worked fine, but no go on the MMS, so I reinstalled it.
