need app for messages for nexus7 3G

(1/5) > >>

bmurphy:
I've just got my nexus7 3g, and have unlimited messages. The messages come through from my phone number that was given to the Nexus 7 but I can't tap on it and answer the message I can just read it. where can I get the little small square :-) app for messages ?
my tablets that are linked , and bought from my provider have the messages app already installed. This one is unlocked, but not associated with any provider. It was worth the wait to get the Sim card ! This is the only thing that is missing!
Any help is appreciated!
Provider is Telus, I'm in BC, Canada.
Nexus7C, 3G, 32G

Apps like Chomp SMS, Go SMS or Handcent may work but I have a Wi-Fi only N7 so I'm unsure...

If you have not received your Sim card, then I am assuming that you are currently working on wifi, therefore SMS which is a service from your 3g provider, will not function correctly without the Sim card.

Sorry, I thought I made that clear... I have the Sim card, phone#, plan and unlimited messaging organized, the messages come through with simple messaging app, but I can only read messages, not reply or originate them. The messages show up top left notification, I can tap on it and read, but choice is only done, not reply or anything, and then it disappears.
The android phones have the full messaging app with the green square smiley face, and the tablets my provider sells have it installed too, but its missing with the nexus7.
I haven't had any luck finding the app on line.
Again, really appreciate any insight, and pointers.
Thanks ;)

What other tablets do you have? Did you try Handscent SMS?
