Ok, this is weird:
The stock #Android #AOSP Messaging app lacks tons of features (like SEARCH), but it can send images via MMS very well.
The QUIK app (recent fork of QKSMS) does a great job of searching and even has a limited built-in backup function, but it totally fails at sending images over 300kb, and sometimes at all.
The Fossify messages app (fork of Simple Mobile Tools) does both, BUT it burns through battery crazy fast on my over-sized SMS DB.
Ugh.
Any FOSS SMS app recommendations?
