I accidentally uninstalled the stock sms messaging from my sprint note 3. Is there any way that I can redownload it or get it back? Any and all help or tips are greatly appreciated!

You couldn't have deleted it if your not rooted. Are you sure you just didn't turn it off?

Not rooted. And not the Samsung messaging app the Google one. It wasn't on the phone when I first got it but after the update to kitkat it was there. It was as easy as removing any other downloaded app

Very sure. It's the messaging app the one with the green chat box/smiley icon not the Samsung messages app

Do you mean hangouts? Search it on the play store.

Try clearing your default messaging app...long press home button/hit pie chart on bottom left/clear def at top/ and clear hangouts as default app for messaging.

Download Handcent SMS. MUCH better than the default app, which BTW you have NOT uninstalled.
