have downloaded the handcent app and thus far like it better than the old messaging app

trouble is I cant delete the old messaging app and as a consequance now get 2 message alerts for every message

Have tried to delete it through 'manage app' but only option available is to clear cache??

Help please
 
I think you have to do this:
Goto the apps draw.
Open "Messages" app.
Press the "Menu" button.
Enter "Settings" menu.
Scroll down to "recieved messages".
And untick "recieved notifications".

Edit

Also, if your scroll down a little further to "sent messages"
You might need to untick "sent notification" and "failure notification"

PS, if you are in the UK and want to check this right now to make sure it has sorted out the problem, you could private message me with your phone number and I will text you ;)
You could even try sending a text to your own number. I've never tried it but it could work.
