Dont see this issue anywhere else... - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i flashed over to the most current radio the other day along with a new rom.
I just tried sending a 2-part txt msg and it keeps NOT sending. Smaller messages cant be sent and received though.
I'm thinking maybe its the radio, but does anyone else know whats going on?

Follow the IRC that's linked in the CM6 ROM. It's a known issue.
Oh, that's IF you're using CM6 or a CM6-based ROM.

whats an irc in a rom?????

IRC = Internet Revolutionary Chat... j/k ... But it is a chat following progress on the latest Froyo 2.2
http://webirc.fossnet.info:9090/?channels=hero-cdma

oh i know what IRC was i just figured it meant something else related to the rom lol i use xchat.

Suuurrreee.... women *sigh*
j/k What rom are you using?

was in there and everyone is just idling. not talking.

the latest cyanogen 6. just flashed it over 2 days ago.

so aside from IRC, is there a fix for the txting issue?

No, I don't believe so right now. I'd say just watch the character count... it shows how close you are when you reach like 10 or 15 characters left or somethign like that.

all the AOSP roms are like that. The AOSP mms.apk doesn't split messages. Install either handcent or chompsms and in the settings tell it to split messages larger than 160 characters.
another known issue with AOSP is that if you are on a carrier other than sprint sending MMS is a no go

ok well i dont know what aosp is but I AM on sprint

AOSP is Android Open Source Project. any of the roms that are compiled from android source are refered to as AOSP. (CSrom, CM6, DarchDroid are all AOSP)
lucky you, you get working mms sending then as a sprint customer.

I think my phone is bugged, any help?

Yes this is the development thread, and all I really have is a problem, but I think it's something only solvable by you devs.
My phones sms has been completely Effing up lately.
I will get the notification up in the bar, and I can pull that down and read into the message, but if I open Handcent or the default app the text won't show up and will not be there.
So reasonably I stopped using Handcent, and Message widget and all sorts or things like that, wiped my phone, cleared the partition, flashed a new rom. Different firmwares [1.6 and the new open eclair]
But nothing really seems to help or work, apparenlty mms has been failing a lot which I know is more so on Tmobile's end then it is my phone but idk whats up, tonight I get this new Android notification
"com.android.mms a large number of sms messages are being send. select "ok" to continue of "cancel" to stop sending"
whenever I hit send, I haven't yet rebooted to see if it persists but it's a pain.
Is there any device log or collection I can submit so someone can look into it, possibly a bug? Virus? Somethin' stupid like that?
Thanks.
p.s. and my inbox isn't full or anything ridiculous like 1000+ messages, I've got about less than 50 currently, and when I said stopped using Handcent and MessageWidget, I mean uninstalled.
This happened to me on rare occasions while I was using Handcent. But it doesn't happen when I use the default messaging app. So I assumed it was due to handcent. Not quite sure why you're getting the other problems though... =/
This happened to me as well when I changed to a 2.1 rom. I chose to go back to Dwangs 1.6 rom until the 2.1 roms have been completely stable.
Hey try using ChompSMS. I think its better than Handcent SMS

That doesn't sound good at all.
Have you checked with t-mobile to see if you are sending a stupid amount of text messages? It could be someone is sending spam messages via your phone or something. It could explain why you are unable to receive messages.
I think you are from the government, trying to find out whom on here knows how to subvert there android espionage. I for one will state to you officer, that I know nothing about this, and am stupid to the whole concept of bugs.
PS Do not try to trace my post, as both me and my computer are wearing tinfoil hats (with the shiny side out).
In all reality, one trick I learned as a teenager to check if your phone may be bugged, is to find an old business that still uses a switchboard phone system (this was hard in the early 90's, and may be impossible now) and phone them. If your phone was bugged, then they would see two lines coming in as one and become quite confused.
Whoa guys, by "bugged" I meant viruses not I'm being spied on haha.
It's occured on the 2.1 build Open Eclair
and a Cyan 1.6 build.
With and without using alternative applications for messaging.
I got sick and tired of it so I decided to go back to my most solid rom I've ever used.
A Soul Life 1.5 build, and I haven't had any troubles yet.
When I preformed the nandroid backup however it still tried to act like my sd card was partitioned and the market was buggy for a few but the cache is cleared up and it's all good now.

Mms

I'm using zenexp 9.7 rom. Works perfect but I decided to try something different so I downloaded the cm7. Full 8 cyanogen and I loved it but certain mms won't download it tells me download unsuccessful so I went back to Zenexp no issues there wit mms so my question is am I doing something wrong why can't I get certain mms to download?
intermittent mms is a known issue for CM roms, but I would say that the goodies you get with CM7 gingerbread specifically, it's worth not getting a few mms IMO.
Yeah, I get that too. He's right though. Maybe one day it'll get fixed.
I've actually had this problem with froyo too, not just GB. That's why I'm back on a sense ROM. It's outdated but everything I need works, as I get and send a ton of picture mail for work. Unfortunately sacrifices sometimes need to be made. Sigh...

I think I've read something about how Sprint uses an "uncommon" method for handling mms, and therefore its not 100% compatible with AOSP/non-Sprint ROMS.
A workaround may be available though. This is just a thought, and I don't send/rcv many mms so I cannot easily test it. Just throwing it out there and maybe someone can provide results.
I know you can access your mms via your profile on Sprint's website. I assume that all mms still go to your account, regardless of whether or not you can view them traditionally on the phone. Based on that assumption, I would think that you could bookmark a link to the webpage and view the missed mms from the browser in CM7.
Any thoughts?

[Q] Group messaging in custom roms

Are there any custom roms in Original Android Development that can correctly utilize group mms? I know the roms based off of sense can, but when I use roms based off of stock android, I receive group message alerts, but the messages themselves are blank. Does anyone have a fix or am I doing something wrong?

I believe the Textra app is the best solution for now. It's clean looking and not as cheesy as other group message enabling apps.

Group messaging, if not enabled in your Messaging App Settings will prevent them from downloading.
Set it up and see if that helps.
If it's ALL MMS messages, I'm not sure I have a suggestion.
EDIT:
And I guess to add, on custom ROMs with different devices I've used in the past, MMS messaging has always seemed to be one of those things that has big issues. In fact, I lived without getting pics for a long time on my old phone. What are you running? You can scour its XDA thread for "MMS" -- bet you'll find something if there's an issue.

By chance did you use to own an iphone? If so you need to log into your apple account and disable imessage, otherwise it's still trying to send them there.
