What mobile service do you have? If on Verizon you can use the Verizon messaging app from the play store, it will also allow you to call using your cell number from the app natively as long as you have volte enabled on your phone

Yup, I use Verizon messaging.
I have AT&T, I tried the app. It's not very good

Do you need to use the Verizon messaging app on the phone for it to work as well?

You have to enable it but after that I use textra without any issues so far. Enabled as primary then switch to whatever messaging app suits you best.

Airdroid seems not suitable.. I wanted to use this while on a train.. hence no shared network...

Make a hotspot then
Mightytext
Mightytext is amazing and works really well. It also has a chrome plugin, so it's great if you also want to send texts from your PC. It also alerts you to phone calls and if your battery is running low.
But... it doesn't work with whatsapp, just sms.
Anyone know of an app or a workaround that will allow control of whatsapp via tablet to phone?
Hey guys I was wondering what apps you use for Google Voice integration on your E4GT?
Last night I was bored and since my E4GT isn't activated on Sprint and I have a dumb Verizon phone I wanted to make calls with my E4GT.
I downloaded Groove IP Lite which seems to integrate Google Voice very well. I was able to call my Verizon number without any trouble.
Then I downloaded the Vonage Mobile app and during setup I used my Verizon number and it appears I am using that number to make free outgoing calls to US numbers. I don't receive many calls so I don't know if I'll receive them with the app. The sound quality is great since I'm using my Wi-Fi at home.

Groove IP is great.
Here is a app that intergrates GV SMS into the stock/go sms app's. There is a trial version available.

Looks good but the Google Voice app handles text messaging just fine. I'm more interested in calling.
My E4GT isn't activated and I want to be able to use it while I have a Wi-Fi connection.

I found that out after using it. It's just cool that I can use my Verizon number on the E4GT even though I don't have it activated.

I've been using the stock app for SMS messaging on my Nexus 4 for the last year. Am I missing out? Is there something better? If its better, why?
Thanks,
Jon
8sms download it on play store. It's almost the same as stock messaging app but with added features such as quick reply option by cm and inverted messaging ui.
Sent from my Nexus⁴
Well first i think this is the wrong place to put this, but ok.
Second, you have a lot, try Go SMS pro or Textra sms, is cool.
In the last days i´m using mysms , is cool , and you can send sms via your pc.
But if anyone know any better than this ones please tell us

8sms ftw!
If I use any of these apps, does it alter any of your data? i.e. can I use it, stop using it and there messages are still there but default back to the stock app?
Try Hello from the Play Store.

8sms (Stock Messaging, KitKat) :highfive:
8sms hands down.
I used to flash that app which was then called as the Modded mms.apk. Now it is available even for unrooted users on the Play Store. Amazing app.
Handcent SMS is great, fully customizable

Does 8sms have regular green android Smileys?

Yes, afaik, you just have to install the new msg app and they will carry over the data. Unless you cleaned flashed your rom then you'll have to back up the xml. But you can do that with Titanium Backup or any other messaging backup app.

Not sure where you live, but SMS is the primary messaging tool in the US. Carrier agnostic, preloaded on every phone, and generally available in no-cost unlimited plans.

What would using this app have anything to do with wifi calling? I've been using Smitten for a while now on my G3 and my wifi/wifi calling is fine. It's a really good sms app too. I can't stand the stock sms app and Smitten is a big improvement.

I like this, but I was experience some weird annoying bugs that led me to stop using it. Messages would appear to go to the wrong person, event though they didn't. Random crashes frequently.
I mean I need mms over data and texting when no signal only with wifi calling with stock app will work.

Same boat. I love the hoverchat app for SMS but don't use it as my primary because anything other than stock seems spotty when on WiFi.

Hmm, I never use wifi calling so I guess I wouldn't have noticed this problem.
I don't mean to sound like a noob. But I've been wondering for awhile now. Why won't Samsung stock message app send pics when connected to WiFi. I always have to disconnect WiFi to send and get pics but not from most 3rd party apps. Is this just me cause I'm using GSM sim? But I think I had this problem with another Samsung phone. If someone could give me some insight that'd be awesome. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. But I was just being inquisitive and wondering why the stock app behaves that way.
All other phones I've had send mms whether WiFi is on or not. And like I stated already, 3rd party apps work as they should. Is it a Samsung thing or sprint?
I don't know cause ever since stage fright came out I've just been using textra due to the only text messaging app that has the protection for stage fright.
