APK: Sliding Messaging Pro v7.00

Note:
If you are having problems receiving notifications, you may need to uninstall 3rd party messengers such as Go SMS.
When using this app, do not disable the stock messaging app as I use it to permanently save messages to the phone. You can however, disable notifications for it so that you don't receive 2 of them.

Added SlideOver, a replacement to the traditional popup
