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.
When the stock messaging app gets a text that it has to break into 2 due to length/amount of characters, it just shows as pending and then shows as failed... and it never sends.
Is there a different version I can use that anyone can post and I'll pull/push the updated one?
you can use handcent or chomps sms, both break it up properly and works fine
i just break mine up by sending when the character counter gets low. it seems to work no one ever complains
This is my first android phone after using a Iphone for the past year.. I don't really care are about gps as I don't use it and as for lag its bearable to me. But the thing that seems to be grinding my gears is the default messenger app. Occasionally I would be texting a message to a friend and when I receive a reply, I would get a error message that says the android text messenger app has crashed and I am forced to close it.
It takes a reset or I have to wait like 5 or so minutes before the phone is back to normal.. I text more than talk so its a inconvenience when this happens. I just want to know if its a common occurrence or it might has something to do with the apps I have installed? I have no apps which modify my text in any way but I did disable the counter on when the when deletes old messages.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
I am on CM7 on my Milestone and have the SMS/launcher apps locked in memory (although I uninstalled the stock sms to just use handcent) and I am sick of missing messages to the point I have got in trouble because of missing messages.
What else can I do to stop this problem?
Just today I tried texting myself a number (quick way to get info to the phone and never even got the message.
I have been in the application settings and watched it randomly restart which I believe would miss any messages at that time. Since I heard before when either the SMS app or Laucher is loading that any messages will be lost.
Try using the default messaging apk inside CM7 Milestone. As Handcent uses much more RAM compared to the default one. Also, try minimizing widgets on your homescreen, and other apps that constantly run in the background (i.e. antivirus, CPU/RAM/system monitors, social networking apps, etc.)
I will think about trying the stock again but I remember it as being pretty basic.
I have no widgets at all and Facebook sync turned off only other app I know that runs in the background is my voice caller id, which I can't live without.
My messages app STRAIGHT SUCKS!
i have no clue why, but everything I do it lags. I click in the text field and the keyboard takes forever to open (both stock Samsung keyboard and swype), i go too fast typing and it lags, possibly force closes, i try to send a message, it takes forever to add it to the list of responses and actually send, it's not even a signal thing, the app itself takes FOREVER and if I try to start typing before it posts or and send, it can freeze up and fc... if i even get a simple picture mms, my phone might force close and I've even had one time where my wife sent multiple mms in a row and it caused a hot reboot!
This is a stock app... i tried using stock keyboard, thinking that was it, no difference. I tried removing the image from the wallpaper on the messages background, that did nothing. ... there shouldn't be problems with either of those 2 things anyways! My gs4 did fine with similar STOCK features and aftermarket keyboards....
This is horrible.
Not rooted. Updated. Both Samsung keyboard and official swype. Both with in app custom picture background, preset color background and stock background.
I love everything else about this phone, but I'm about to return this thing, i shouldn't have to root to fix a stock app.
Anyone else have/had these problems? Any way to resolve them?
Just use Hangouts.

I guess that even though it was fine on my gs4, the note 4 didn't like the 13.5K text messages i restored the phone with my backup program... considering I have to record texts with an Ex, this us somewhat concerning, and a pain not have all texts backed up into one file and makes me wonder that despite allowing me to have "no limit"on my text messages, that it will eventually be too much and slow the program down to useless speeds again...
I just backed up all sms, set backup app as primary messages, deleted all sms texts, cleared data/cache/defaults on stock messages app, reset phone, reset stock app as default and boom, everything is flying again...
So if anyone ever gets a huge lag in their messages app, backup old messages if you want them, then delete all sms messages with a third party app cause if you want to keep your mms, deleting threads/convos with stock app will delete mms too if you haven't saved then some other way...
N suggest using hangouts? Really? The answer is fix what's broken, not leave it behind, that does no-one any good.
Similar situation but with knowledge of it

I've always had this problem whenever i restore my backed-up conversations, but in my case, it's only the first time i open a conversation i've recently restored from a backup, after that, it's just fine. I'm guessing this might be because it has to create some sort of cache the first time the system opens the entire conversation for you to read.
What i usually do... Get new phone, restore previous sms/mms, open each conversation for the first time and when i'm actually going to text, i get no lag or extensive wait for the messages to open-up. I hope that is also your case and you can deal with that LONG first wait.
PS- yes, i also NEED to keep a backup of my exes *sigh* those messages are my legal defenders ^_^
I never had an issue with restore but I delete the stock messeging app. Chomp works way better
BAD ASS NOTE 4
