You're not gonna delete any stock apps without rooting. Maybe try going into your stock messages and change settings to unlimited messages and then uncheck all settings in stock message app

Hey,

You can't change the setting to unlimited on Stock app... It only goes up to 1000 texts per conversation...

Thank you

If you delete the stock messaging app you won't have the ability to text,not to mention there's no way to get it back, there's no sbf files if it f/c's all the time and messaging won't work at all, even 3rd party apps rely on stock to function. It kinda piggybacks off of it. Deleting it will cause more harm than good. Just letting you know its not recommended that you did this!! Expect issues and anybody that knows anything about rooting know not to delete the basic functions of the phone. Just an fyi.

Your brave,not me seen where its messed up before! I never delete system apps cause ya never know what issues you'll get in to doing so. Besides I don't need to keep 1000 messages or more on my phone. I keep what's important and delete the rest. That's just me though.
