    Handcent SMS removed from market?

    I recently updated to Chevy's SS v5.6. Since I wiped my phone for the install, I had to get all my apps back from the market. Chevy's ROM came with the new market (new to me anyway). I could not find Handcent at all. I found a few language packs, but not the app itself. I downgraded to the previous market, found Handcent, and hit DOWNLOAD. I got the message "Download of Handcent SMS declined.

    "The download of 'Handcent SMS' was declined because it was removed from the Android Market."

    I really don't think I can live with stock MMS. Anyone know why Handcent was removed?

    Thanks for any info.

    No, but your not the only to experience this - my advice would be to contact the developer

    Download the APK from the Handcent website. You have to do it from your phone.
