That's right...if you're like me and own a license for iRealSMS 2.0 (now version 2.0.8.1) you can download and install iRealQuickSMS for free. What is iRealQuickSMS? It's basically the plug-ins used in the full iRealSMS app that allows you to use the quick send and quick reply/call features, but with the stock SMS app! (or even biteSMS if you use that). As much as I love the full iReal app, especially landscape mode, I like the overall "clean" design of the stock SMS app a whole lot more...

For those of you living under a rock, whom may be wondering... what is QuickReply and what is QuickSMS??
QuickReply is a special plugin that allows you to reply to a new SMS right from the onscreen popup, so you do not have to exit your current application to do so! This also gives you the option to CALL the contact instead of reply via the CALL button. It also lets you know how many total message you have waiting via a ghost image within the text field. As you can see from the pic, there are a total of 6 SMS message. Now you can either answer these or close these one by one... but if you dont have time to do so, dont worry... you can easily press the HOME key on the phone and it will CLOSE ALL the messages and keep them marked as UNREAD so you know exactly which messages still need your attention!
QuickSMS is also a special plugin that allows you to compose a new text message to anyone from any application! This also doubles as a QuickCall feature, which utilizes your contact list in conjunction with its predictive text filter to narrow down your contact list as you type. So you no longer have the need to really enter the Phone or Text app in most cases!
This app is compatible with the native Apple SMS app Here are some teaser pics of all options and settings! The pics are pretty self explanatory as to the functions available.
This is the main menu:
The QuickSMS settings allows users to choose between two different hotkeys!(yes we have been listening to you)
