Want some iOS kinda tweaks for messaging on your android? Some of your might know bitesms for iOS where we can receive full popup display of the text message along with the buttons for quick reply, delete, and whatever else. This thing on Android wasn’t there until we got Handcent SMS. Handcent SMS is a powerful tool for SMS/MMS for Android with some really cool customization and is the best replacement for the stock messaging app.
