Help with messages [Cyanogen latest 4.2.5] - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a biggggggg problem, and it is that now a days everyone sends more text messages than make actuall calls.
So people keep sending me messages, and thinking im ignoring them.. i get people mad at me, and I also dont get important messages from my girlfriend, parties, promotors, etc.
sometimes they have to send me 2 or 3 messages so i can get the message.
Help, how do I fix this issue?

I'm having the same exact issue. The message appears in the notification bar but does not appear in the app, either the default messaging app or Handcent.

Missing messages

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.

HTC Magic SMS Messaging Software

Hey guys.
I recently got my Magic, but having some difficulty with messaging software.
i can send sms message fine sometimes, but then when i reply to a message, it keeps saying "message not sent" with an exclamation mark and i can't send to that phone number anymore. it's quite frustrating. does someone know why or maybe suggest better messaging software i can use??
Please help, this is a major problem for me now.
Thanx.
Wynand
Are you using the stock Messaging App?
I've used both Handcent and Chomp SMS, and I've liked both and found them reliable. I tend to lean towards Handcent SMS, as the notifications are more customisable, but its a matter of personal preference.
If you keep having problems using other apps as well, might be worth checking with your carrier that your text settings are correct, for example message centre number.

Thanx for help. will try handcent. how do you go about changing the message centre number on my htc magic?
Ta. I'm still a young padawan with HTC technology

Having issues receiving texts

About two weeks ago I couldn't receive any texts, I could send them because my friends would respond back and my Google voice shows that it had to of gone through for them to respond, but on my phone it won't retrieve it. The weird part is if someone sends me a photo or a group message I can receive it, but individual texts won't come in. I called sprint and they said nothing is wrong with my phone, they're going to call a engineer to check out where the problem is.

You probably need to clear out the data and cache. You could also try re-installing Google voice. The reason you receive the texts with photos is because those are handled by your messaging app not by Google voice. Voice only handles txt messages not mms. you also need to check the voice settings. Your settings could be set up to have the message app handle txt messages and not the Google voice app.

[Q] Have to split long messages to send?

So today I was texting and realized that I now have to select the "split long messages" box on the texting app that I've always been using, textra, to send long text messages. Now the person I am in a conversation with receives more that one messages depending on how long the message is instead of just receiving one long message. Since I started using the note 4 I never had to do this and I appreciated it so much because my last phone made me do that to send messages period. Splitting messages just annoys me and I'm wondering why now I all of a sudden have to do that. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening or how to fix it? I did revert back to the original messaging app but it was doing the same thing, I also barely used the original messaging app because I downloaded textra as soon as I began using the N4.

Problem Sending WhatsApp Messages after Pie update

I have a T-Mobile Note 9 and recently updated to pie with the official OTA file. Ever since I've updated, all my messages don't send right away. On regular text messaging, I've been getting texts hours late and sometimes my messages are being delivered late (even though on my end it's sent). Especially on group texting. It's happening on Telegram also, where my messages don't seem to go through and I have to force close the application and open it again. But the worst problem is with the WhatsApp messages. 50% of the time, I will send a message and it just shows one tick mark (not delivered). And I've tested this with many contacts, even another phone I have at home. Eventually after a while, the messages will show two ticks. Usually , if I initiate a WhatsApp call then the messages will change to two tick marks right away.
Has anyone else had problems with sending messages after the pie update? I think it's weird that it's happening across apps.
Thank you in advance!

Wipe cache partition and see if that helps.
Also are your experiencing any problems with your WiFi
