Alright, for the past 3 Cyanogenmod roms that I have had (ever since donut)
I have a text messaging problem, where 30% of my texts come back with a "failure" regardless of which Sms app im using... and I keep resending it over and over again and it keeps returning the same failure... the only way to fix it is to reboot the phone
by then, I receive any incoming SMS as well that didnt make it through to my phone.
AND... on top of that... recipients are telling me that my so called failed texts are actually going through... and all my resends go through as well... so they will end up with multiple identical messages from me.

Guys!
when i send a msg to someone, very very often instead of sending 1sms it sends several, ranging from 2 to 6 even.
so heres the story:
1. write sms to a friend. = 1 sms less than 160char
2. send sms to friend
3. receive delivery report, or even if option is off, no matter.
4. get a reply from my friend that i sent him the msg several times.
- this is not isolated case, this has happened with numerous numerous numbers. from different networks and different numbers etc. so theres a problem i think. whats wrong?
Yes only recently I've been Having thois problem with my XDA2i
Happens if I shut down Messagin before its sent as it seems to send it but doesn't remove from the outbox and then sends again when I open messaging again.
no non o, i do close messaging always. but its like if you just choose also: NEW -> message from the today screen. but itheres no msg in outbox, and i get that it sent msg. and get delivery also.
mayb idnt understand ur story 2 well?
I have the same problem
I have the exact same problem. I think three is the maximum number of times I have seen it sent. My phone only shows it once in the outbox and, if I remember correctly, shows only the time I actually sent the message - not the time(s) of the repeat(s). The repeated message may go out many hours after the actual send. This has been happening for a year or more.
Sorry I don't have any ideas why it happens.
yeah yeah yeah. you're right. i had once 7 msgs sent to my sister over a period of 8 or more hours even the next morning when she woke up she got a msg at like 7am from me same old thing damn you know. can get confusing at times. no solutions?
i sent a multiple msg to about 10 people on my bill appeared that i sent around 70 msgs
holy sh**. darn that aint good at all. that really really aint good at all. talk bout a money spendin scam ok. no we need big big help on sb to help us out 2 that. but no1 has ideas i guess:/ hopefully this topic wont die and sb will b able2save us.
I had the same problem, i think it was caused by task managers, it only seemed to happen when i had either vbar or spb installed. I don't use a task manager now and i don't have the problem.
Yes, YOu're not alone guys me too have the same problem here.....
does anyone know how to fix the double SMS problem in O2 XDA IIi ?
everytime I send SMS, it will re send again, so the recipient always received two or more same SMS from me. :-( this is very annoying.
you know - ppl think i'm an idiot or smth and continuously keep sending me replies "no need to send it twice" and so on yeah....aint the brightest side o life. but i think what i read smwhere else is true - if i just dont close the messaging window until it sends then it should b ok i think. bnut thats still not a solution...
Does anyone get like a glitch kinda thing with their sms when they are receiving them. ...Sometimes I will receive sms messages with no problems what so ever and i will receive them right away. Other times, It will be hours after they were sent and I will receive them. Or I will not receive them until the next time I go and open my sms inbox when im planning to send another, all of a sudden I just receive a new msg, hours late.
Any ideas?
its usually just your gsm service, my carrier is on-time but the time-stamps on the message is sometimes wrong.
maybe sometimes, but other times ...for example, I may be having a conversation at night, then fall asleep. The next morning, when im going to send a new sms message, i open the sms message window and a new text arrives with the time stamp from the night before, and i know that this new message was not just sent now because the person who sent it is still asleep
bump.......
yea its the network.
or u just got a really crappy sim card.
Yeah, I get that. It's probably a minor software glitch. I've had people call me complaining I didn't respond to a message and lo and behold, when I open messages to prove them hideously wrong, the 'message recieved' tone beeps several times and "[X] new text messages" pops up at the bottom of the screen.
Still not figured out how to set the phone up to do this (i.e. whether you minimise or hide the messaging app, whether you open a new app first then go back to today screen, etc..)
Still, only rarely happens. And at other times when recieving texts I could swear the phone doesn't beep... just conspirationally increments the new message counter and keeps silent. I pick up the phone after it's been sat next to me and it says I have several new messages.
Same thing happens to me, i've researched it for days and cant find a fix. I'm dreading calling ATT because they are usually of no help, but I'm gonna put my pants on and call them in a few minutes.
About a week ago I hit delete and let it do its work over night since it was going to take forever.
First off, my Tilt only deleted the messages in the inbox, not the outbox. Then a few days later I reset my phone to check something, then ALL my text messages were back, and all of the texts that I've sent/gotten in between were gone.
Is there a certain way I'm suppose to delete this stuff?
I don't know how that happened, and I cannot think of any kind of special procedure to deleting SMS messages. What happens if you just delete like 10 at a time? Does that work?
Dave
Well the thing about that, I have over 20,000 text messages stored on my phone hah.. So doing 10 at a time would just take wayyy too long.
Whenever I hit my soft reset button, all my text messages from that day to a couple days before are gone. It's kinda weird and I don't quite understand it. But yeah, I'm just trying to figure out a way where I can delete them all to where they won't come back hah. Who ever thought it'd be so hard.
Has anyone else ever had this problem?
I can't view MMS messages now because it tells me to clear more space. I've deleted several large size mms messages off of my phone, on top of a grip of text messages to clear space, but it hasn't cleared anything. How can I fix this?
Hard-Reset
I had the same problem on my T-Mobile MDA...never did figure it out. But whenever I deleted them, they always came back. I haven't tried deleting all my texts on the Tilt yet.

I think unpredictable things start to happen when you have upwards of 20000 messages.
The other week my phone crashed and i had to hard reset it because it was carrying 47000 SMS messages, i think the problem i had was the SMS datbase corrupted when i as attempting to delete my biggest thread, with well over 6 months of messages in it.
So yeah, backup your messages if you want them and hard reset, and id try to not let messages get higer than 15000, just so the phone has space to breathe
I have the same problem with msgs that return mysteriously on my ATT tilt running the factory (att) default rom. The first time I tried it I had around 5000 msgs and I ended up having to hard reset. Right now I have around 15,000 msgs and still have the same problem (obviously haha). I'm probably gonna upgrade my rom anyway, but I just figured I'd let you know you're not the only one (and not crazy haha).

my nexus from time to time says that the text messages that i sent doesnt send. i would get a notification saying that it didnt send, however when i go to resend, sometimes it goes through and sometimes it doesnt. my friends have told me that they do get all the texts messages everytime, so they get them even if my phone says it didnt send. its reaaaaaaalllllyy annoying to see that notification every time. im running cyanogenmod 5.0.6 any thoughts?
oh btw fellas, i work at ATT and i changed my sim card and all that jazz so its not the service what so ever
I have similar issues every now and then. Usually occurs when I am sending texts fast.
I have the same issue minus that all my text usually don't go through. I usually end up rephrasing what I wanted to send and it sends.
it happens from time to time for me too, i sometimes have to reboot
been texting a lot lately and just recently ran into a problem running. i was running into issues with the signal dropping completly and then coming back. my friends experienced the same problem so i figured it was just the area we were in. i got a sms notification for 1 unread message the other day and this is where the sms problem started.
upon trying to open the unread message the phone would hang with the 'thinking' circle. the message would open but only after almost 8 minutes. the home screen will say no new messages but when i opening the messaging program it still shows as unread. the phone will hang and become unresponsive if i try to do anything to that unread message.
i cannot send out messages either. i can write them perfectly but the phone will hang once i try to send or save as draft.
lastly, i cannot recieve messages. not sure why. none of my settings have changed. i did a soft reset and deleted the inbox.xxxxx folder on my sd card with no success.
i'd like to see if anyone has a solution to this problem before i try to hard reset. i have a non-modded att tilt running, stock wm6.1 w/o bloatware. radio had never been changed from the wm6.1 upgrade.
cliffs:
cant recieve/send sms
phone is not responsive when sending new message
backed up PIM data and did a hard reset. sms/mms was still not working after the initial reset so I reset it again restored PIM. sms/mms is working again.
