Okay..so I know that something of this sort has already been posted because I actually read that thread and used it to install Handcent and set as my default app for messaging. I have also gone into the original messaging app and unchecked EVERYTHING and rebooted my phone. So why am i still getting duplicate sms notifications (one will be a square popup in the homescreen and the other is the handcent notification in the notification bar)? I am thinking that these are two separate messaging popups because I "thought" that i set the handscent to show up as convo bubbles not square screens? Can someone please help. Thanks
