SMS issues - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

SMS on every app, and on every HERO rom I've flashed the past 2 or 3 days have had this same issue. My sms are incoming at a time that is ahead of what the time should be on the timestamp, so when i send a reply it puts it above the first response. This causes my messages to end up completely out of order and irritating. PLEASE HELP ME
I have completely wiped the sd card, reparted it, wiped, flashed every newest hero rom i can download, and have had this problem constantly, could this be something in the kernal, or other part of the rom that devs are sharing? I even contacted tmobile to see if there were any network issues, I also made sure every setting I could try both in the default mms/sms app and handcent related to incoming sms, and still no luck.

Since you've already wiped and all that, try going back to RC 29, then wipe, and upgrade from there.
I'd also wait on the Handcent install until you've checked to see the stock sms app is OK. Handcent sent my whole thread, msg by msg, 200 of them, to a friend, all by itself. Of course, it was conversation we already had, so it wasn't a big deal, but Handcent has been buggy for me lately.

Soft Reset makes phone lose SMS, MMS msgs

This is really weird, but reinstalled the PDAVIET rom the other day, and now I've noticed that whenever I soft reset the phone, and I go into my messaging ... I've lost messages.
Even my gmail account that's setup via pop3 on the phone loses like the last couple messages, and then re-downloads them and they show up as new.
With SMS or MMS, it seems the last couple of txts or mms I received dissappear... it's really strange and that's never happened to me before
Anyone have any ideas as to why and how to fix that?
dD
Me too.
Yeah, I've noticed the same thing when I reboot. But it's usually the unread messages. Is it the same with you?
phreke
no, the ones for me were read and replied to ... it's really weird.
The only thing I have done differently is I did a hard reset on the phone with the pdaviet rom on there ... i don't know if that would make a difference.
Hmm...strange. It's almost as if it's not writing it to storage and keeping it in memory. Don't have a clue. Anyone else?
phreke
im still getting this... and it happens on the stock tmobile rom ... bc I was flashing the new 2.3 beta touch it ... and a message came in right after I flashed the RUU and the phone came on. So I put the phone on flight mode, and installed ASERG policies and soft reset ... when the phone came back from soft reset, the text was gone.... so it happens with the stock TMO Rom too.

Old SMS Resending On Restarts

This has been happening a lot lately, I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this issue as well. Every time I boot up my phone an old SMS will send to its original recipient. Needless to say I'm getting tired of people asking "Why did you resend that to me?"
I'm running Cyn 4.2.3.1 (but it has occurred on his other builds as well) I'm using handcent and stock message app.
Any other additional info anyone would need to help with this issue just let me know.
Thanks in advance.
I used to get this on the early hero builds.. along with some other sms issues, but I've never noticed it since I switched back to CM..
I'm having this same issue. It seems that when I reboot my phone it clears out the text messages I've sent and received the last few days and resends one from a couple days ago.

Missing text messages?

I have had my G1 since about a month after it has come out and I have never had any problems with missing text messages. I'm a heavy texter so they are important to me. I rooted my phone a while after I got it and still never had any problems, but recently I have been have problems with getting and receiving them. I have gone through many roms from hero's to cyanogen to others without problems. But they have started about a month or two ago. I currently have Cloverdale's Blue_Haze-Eclair_2.1-v1.7 with Haykuro's special spl. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it?
Is the problem intermittent, or do you miss your texts 100% of the time?
Do you have access to ADB so you can get a log of what's happening when you get a text?
I once couldn't receive texts because I switched from a Hero-based ROM back to a standard ROM, and the data format of the Messaging app is different. The phone would get the message, but the Messaging app would crash before saving it due to the error and I didn't have a clue until I looked at the log, so that's one possibility.
Well the problem is intermittent. I get them most of the times but there are a lot of times when I don't get them. I don't have access to ADB. Is it difficult to do that? That is an interesting perspective though. I have never thought about it that way.
i had this problem and then i had a problem where i would get the text notification and when i go to open it its like it disappears and the new text isn't there. i've had friends tell me they texted me a few times and i never got anything, i was running CM's rom and a few weeks ago i switched to super D and have not had any problems with texts whatsoever. i'm not sure if it's a rom thing or what but its weird and i racked my brain trying to figure why its happening and how to fix it. id suggest maybe using super d's rom for a few days and see if it solves anything but i swear ever since i switched i've been getting and sending all my texts
Yeahh I have had the disappearing texts problem also. So do you really think if I switch to super d that the problem will be fixed?
And also do you think you can post the link the super D page so that I can check it out? Is it updated regularly though because I also rely heavily on updated roms.
I had that problem with other Hero ROM's. It solved when I flashed the latest MghtyMax ROM. Also install Handcent SMS then go to settings and activate the "Autoretrieve", "Show pop-up" and "Self check" options.

[Q] SMS Htc Hero CDMA Problem

I'm postivie i received two text, from my self, and my friend sitting next to me; They were delayed until i made a phone call. Any fixes? Surely would appreciate it!
Rom - Stock 2.1 Rooted
I'm thinking of going back to Cyanogen 6.1 when this problem is fixed
Thanks!
Are you going through a SMS app, like Handcent, or using the stock messaging program? I had a huge delay in sending/receiving texts when I used those programs. If you are using a non-stock program, try using the stock one to see how it responds first.
Yeah, i am using the stock app, but ill try using handcent and see if it works like that
Sorry, Handcent was the one giving me problems, not the stock app. How is the other data flowing, like browser and what not? Seen any drop in data coverage or anything? Do you have the newest baseband radio?

Do you have a "low space" warning? I know I've had problems receiving mms/texts when I'm low on internal space. Once I cleared up the space (>19MB Free I believe) by uninstalling a bunch of apps I never use, all the texts came in
Just a thought
Well, i got it fixed, went to the sprint store, (unrooted of course) and they fixed it within an hour, they reset the entire phone, not the same reset as Settings>Privacy>Factory Data Reset.
text and phone calls not getting through
my wife and i both got HTC incredible with Verizon service, this been almost two months ago. my phone is completely awesome, hers on the other hand has an issue her phone will stop receiving text, and or phone calls out of the blue. we will be texting back and forth and all the sudden hers just stops getting my text, so i will call her and it will ring on my end, till her voice mail picks up. this has happen few times a day ever since she has had the phone. if she makes a call out or restarts the phone then she will get all the texts, and voice messages at once. this happen with stock phone apps and ones like handcent. it happen when phone was s-on and after i rooted and installed new kernels and all that jazz. i have talk to Verizon and they talk me through reset and few other things but still doing it. guess i am going to have to see about taking it in, unless anyone has any other advise i have not thought of. all of her software versions are same as mine.

You might have better luck asking on the dinc forums.

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Gingerbread-on-Hero action here!
not just a dinc issue...!?
yea, i know, i put it here because, it seems like same issue this guy was having and i have been searching around and have found many instances of the same problem on many different android phones.
i am un-rooting it and reinstalling the original software and taking it into Verizon tomorrow to see if they can do anything. should have done it sooner but every time i would try a fix it would seem like it was fixed for a day or so and then back to the same thing.
i will copy it over there just for posterity, and hopefully i can amend it tomorrow evening with the fix and a solved!

Problems replying to texts msgs froyo 2.2.1

Hi and Happy New Year
I hope someone can help me. I updated to the new official 2.2.1. Reinstalled all the apps. That took an evening and half a day. Problem I have is, I can't reply to an incoming txt msg. I compose the msg and then when I send it T=the msg bubble goes grey and says 'failed'.
I can compose a new msg in a new thread and send it ok, but I can't reply to a thread that has incoming msg. I have to start a new thread or use the one that did send. Its very annoying. I'm on T Mobile, my mms setting are up to date , they sent me new ones.
I am totally stuck for ideas now apart from factory resetting but that would mean I am back to square 1 again. This is spoiling my party plans lol. Can anyone suggest what I should do please?
Have you set up your mms
settings message centre and all the other stuff .
Reinstalled all the apps. That took an evening and half a day.
Why did you remove them ???
Use a program like AppBrain just installed mine tops one hour .
jje
Terrible lag
Hi I didn't remove them I just did a factory reset after I upgraded the ROM. This lag is getting worse, its more like a freeze now. It freezes in swype now the buttons go blue and stick there while I wait for the lag to stop.
The only thing I think it could be is an app thats causing it as my friends have no trouble with theirs. Anybody else fiding the same??
