I have never could figure out why 800 phones wouldn't have the best Launchers and Text applications on their phones.
Texting application, yes, since I'm on Verizon and they typically default to VZW messaging apps.
Launcher, no. Just never something I've felt the need to do.
Google Messages. Works well for my needs.What texting app do you use?

Welcome to Android Central! I do not own a V30, but I almost always change up my texting application. I dabble with launchers but I normally just switch up the theme on my phone from time to time.
I am a heavy and passionate Textra user - I have the Pro version (inexpensive and worth every penny) and love the customization options and the look. You can change everything from the text bubble shape and colour to assigning specific notifications per contact when they message you.
As far as themes go, I am currently using the Pixel theme that I found from my Huawei/Honor theme store app.
I agree with you, though: the stock messaging apps on phones don't often impress me. I'll keep 'em for a while but I always know I'll come back to Textra.
1st thing I do on a new phone is install textra. My favorite thing is it can be set to only show mobile numbers. since I can't text a landline, why would I want to send a text to it. most default apps don't seem to do that.
I'm on the V20 (close enough, eh?), and I'm always the odd man out here. I use Handcent for texting because of all the customizing options, and Next 3D for the launcher because of the cool 3D effects (expensive though! ).
I've heard that Handcent is good! How customizable is it?
It's almost infinitely customizable. You said earlier that you can customize the text bubbles on Textra. On Handcent, you can remove the bubbles all together.
This is a screen shot of the settings preview where you can change it up.
Any time. And fyi, yes, you can have bubbles if you really want them. I just don't care for them. LolOh wow! So cool! Maybe I'll test this out too! Thank you!!
