I have been having a continuous but random problem on Cyanogen's builds, was hoping it would be fixed...
Occasionally I will not receive texts from my girlfriend who's on Verizon. This is extremely frustrating because she thinks I'm ignoring her or something.
I also will sometimes receive a Notification of a text, but not be able to access the text. Like, I'll click on it, and I'll see the previous texts, but the one I saw in the Notification bar won't show up at the bottom. This problem is both in ChompSMS and the regular Messaging app.
I have had the Notification problem with other people as well, but so far, it seems like the 'missing texts' problem happens only with my girlfriend's texts. She doesn't miss my texts, I miss hers.
I have dgAlert Classic and ChompSMS, I will be disabling them one by one and see if that's my problem instead of CyanogenMod. But just checking to see if anyone else has had this problem.
i had this same problem, fort it was my phone, i use sms popup, that pop ups with the message, but i don't get the original notification on the pull down bar, and no LED light
That's a workaround, but is there any actual -fix- for this?
Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this. What SMS app do you use, or do you use the included Messaging app?
Just wanted to add I experience this issue too. I use a widget that displays my latest message, and it shows the latest message there but occasionally there will be no notifications and the message will only appear in the widget, no where else. My fix, which im currently experimenting with, is using the default Mms.apk, not the modified one. I will post results soon.
That is a good idea, let us know what the result is!
If you can get no missing messages/notifications for 3 days without reboot, I'll be impressed and try the same myself.
Well, no luck. Default Mms.apk still has the same problems.
I've had it happen once where I was in Market, got an SMS notification, and pressed Back a bunch of times to get to Home screen. Then I looked at the notification and clicked, but there was no message.
THEN WHO WAS PHONE?
Nah but, maybe it's pressing Back a lot of times? I don't know. I wish it would get looked at and fixed, it seems like everyone just ignores it if I bring this up.

I will FREQUENTLY get a notification of a new text message, it will read the first few lines in the notification bar, and display in my text message widget, but when I go to my inbox there is no sign of that text message at all.
I've used handcent
I've booted handcent
Used stock
Used Message Widget by Till esser
And all sorts of ****.
Wiped/factory data reset
Took apps off my sd/cleared the partition
It's been happening for about two weeks or more and it's bull****.
Any advice?
com.android.mms a large number of sms messages are being send. select "ok" to continue of "cancel" to stop sending
Is a new problem occurring when I send a text.
And considering I'm not sending a lot of texts, or theres much in my inbox. :|

I had the same problems, so I just switched back to stock sms.
this happened to me a while back, except mine would crash every time i open the messaging app. I simply did a factory reset, and it started working again.
This also happens to me now and then for no apparent reason, and then will stop and work correctly for a long period of time. I really have no ideas.
It happened to me when I was on JACxHeroSki v1.5 ROM and I also had an automatic task killer running in background. I uninstalled task killer and the problem went away.
As a complement, you could install Handcent and activate the "Auto retieve" and "Self check" options, that's how I'm working now and I haven't had any problems. Currently, I'm running the latest MghtyMax ROM and it completely solved that issue and other ones like the "3-ring" delay on incoming calls and the blinking LED.
Hope that helps.
EDIT: also (on Handcent) enable the "pop-up window" option when a text arrives. At least, it will give you the option to read and reply the message instantly if your texts are still getting lost. You could also install a "SMStoEmail" application, look for it on the Market.
So I receive a text, click on the notification and read the message, then I type a response and press send, now the fun part- it sends to someone else. Not every time but enough to make me not use the app. Phone is stock, using stock messaging app. This isn't going to cut it. Anyone?
Having 2 contacts with the same name, but different phones?
Having 2 different contacts with several phones, one of them being the same?
Look for those, I believe that it's the root cause of your problem.
I unfortunately wasn't able to verify that. I'm going to reset the phone and see what happens....
This is actually why I stopped using handcent sms, I think it has to do with the way the Android OS reads the contacts.
This is a common issue many people have. But its with the stock messaging app. Handcent fixes this issue, or at least it does not happen with handcent. Google never did figure out this bug.

Thanks I guess that settles it. Good to know Google is working on making the OS prettier instead of making its most basic functions work. I understand android has a list a mile long of issues they need to address but this has to be pretty damn close to the top 5 no?
It has to be disorganized contacts on your end. Duplicate phone numbers, etc. I've never heard of this problem.
Of course I could be full of sh¡#.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Do you have friends with nicknames and friends that use their full name?
Sorry, here's an example: Elizabeth and Liz, or Eddie and Edward. I've noticed that the contacts i have with names like those get combined automatically for some reason and when you try to text one it goes to the wrong person
Now I've rooted, running frg 33 and its still happening. But now I have one conversation in my list, I send a text to that person via the conversation, then I get a "?" In reply from a random contact who has received the text as well as the intended recipient. These contacts have the same area code but completely different names, no nicknames. Is it possible this is a phone issue? I absolutely want to stay with android and ill gladly get a different android phone when I can...but if this is just how google rolls then I have an awful decision to make. Also, I searched and it apparently happens on 3rd party SMS apps. I wonder if it could even be a carrier issue....I don't know the intricacies of texts but this is my 3rd android phone and the first that sends texts to whomever it wants...there a lot of small bugs with android, but this is far and away the most disappointing. Anyone had any luck with this? Maybe there are settings in the **464646** or whatever it is, that could help?
Hi all,
First, I did search and didn't spot an answer or similar thread (so I'll feel really silly when someone points me to it...)
I've got a stock VZW 3G Xoom and I'm using Google Voice almost exclusively for texting now. In fact, it works so well I gave my Nexus 1 to my father-in-law and switched to a basic phone. But, the only complaint/issue I have is that it's sometimes difficult or even impossible to access the inbox. I regularly find that if I'm in a text thread and hit the back button, to return to the inbox where all discussions are shown, it will often only refresh the screen and I remain in the individual thread. Sometimes, going "home" and then touching the GV icon will take me to the inbox but sometimes even this doesn't resolve the issue. And, today, I experienced something new - every time I hit back to get to the inbox, from within a thread, it deleted the previous text. In other words, each time I hit back the text message (whether sent or received) disappeared from the thread starting at the bottom and working up. My only fix here was to force stop it.
Has anyone else experienced this and, if so, have you found a solution to return you to the inbox?
Thanks for any help,
Ross
Mine does the same thing. While annoying, my inbox sometimes takes what seems like forever to refresh incoming messages.
I'm working with a wifi Xoom, 3.2.
Sorry, all, I had never experienced this before on my Nexus One so I thought it might be a Xoom or Honeycomb issue. But, I did some deeper (broader) digging and found that it's a known GV behavior. This explanation was helpful:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/etnha/google_voice_users_when_you_hit_your_back_button/
Basically, it seems that when I click on a notification bar text message notice I'm not in the full GV app. So, if what I read elsewhere is correct, if I view 10 text messages through the notification bar icon I'd have to hit the back button 10 times to get to the main app and the inbox. This would explain the erratic behavior I've seen, as sometimes I use the notification icon and sometimes I use the app shortcut. Not great design, but at least it doesn't appear to be a Xoom-specific issue.
What apk did you use to get it?
grab the apk from your android phone that gets it from the market
i have never experienced this issue
i am on wifi 3.2 rooted stock
Hi. Long time iPhone user but new to Android as of two weeks ago. Bought the HTC One (AT&T) and am loving it so far.
However, I have been having issues concerning notifications through a couple apps. Specifically the MLB At Bat app and the CNN app. Let me start by saying that I have received notifications without issue when it comes to email, texts, and Facebook.
Now, with At Bat, I have notifications set up in the settings for the app (specifically for my favorite baseball team), and I technically do get notifications. What I mean by that is, if I happen to turn on my phone, I will see that a notification previously came in. However, I do not receive any audio or vibration feedback to accompany the notification. So, the phone doesn't actually alert me. The same case is true with the CNN app. In the settings for the app, I have set up to receive notifications for breaking news. Again, I technically get the notifications sent to my phone, so they will be there when I happen to check the phone for whatever reason. But when the notification is sent, I am not alerted in any way (no tone or vibration).
As I said before, I get notifications (accompanied with audio tone and vibration) without issue when it comes to emails, texts, and Facebook. I have scowered the system settings and the settings on the individual apps but everything appears to be in order. Thanks in advance for any help or direction you fine folks can provide.
edit: Also, I have uninstalled and reinstalled both apps, but nothing has changed.

i think that android apps are not AS GOOD AS IPHONE's.......
its more apps developers problem than HTCONE......
i think you gotta sell this one and buy iphone 17S....
PS. sorry i just had to write that......
I searched Google and seen many with the same issue, but no solution. The issue is getting no text notifications sometimes. I get the text message but no sound or badge number saying a text came in. It's so random I can be texting a person back and fourth. I get 99% of notification a text came in example a sound and visual iindication but a few slip in with out so much of a beep. I did a factory reset, I made messager notification high priority, and I have no other message app. Is it because of Oreo? Is because of Google? Or is just Samsung app broken? No idea, but it kills me.

I've seen the same issue. In addition to pissing me off I have the wife asking why I'm ignoring her messages! I rebooted and that seemed to remove the problem for a large window of time but I've heard of no concrete root cause and solution.

Same here that's why I turned off read notification in messages for TMobile. So the wife does not complain about it.
I read somewhere it might be Google app. I uninstalled updates and disabled it and will report back.
Ok 24 hours later I must say big difference. All text come in and notifications from a Islamic app about prayer times is no longer late. So is it google app? Maybe because I also removed anti virus software. I am add google back on and see what's up.
How sad.... Within 5 mins it started again... It's the google app.
it's usually happen to me when the text app is on-screen, in the foreground. when the app in the background, I get the notification

For me it's both. Phone in my pocket screen off and I get nothing. Only thing that saves me sometimes is my s3 watch. It shows the notification and the phone nothing
