I cannot seem to send sms messages when I install handcent on this phone. Mms work fine, and I can receive all day. Not sure why, has anyone else seen this?

that's interesting cuz i was having similar issues as well.. not all the time, but just had that first occurence yesterday. Have you tried sending a message and waiting for the "spinning" timer disappear before exiting the convo?
I have used handcent since day one with the phone and have had no issues. Im not sure what may be wrong with yours but maybe wait until the circle stops spinning like ^^ said

Yeah, I have. It works fine on my gf fascinate, but not mine. Funny thing is, I've gone all the way back to stock and still won't work. Maybe a network profile thing.

I have a similar problem except SMS works fine for me but I cannot receive MMS messages. I can send MMS fine though... I hope 2.2 will fix it.
Daswolven,
Aren't you the same person that posted that thread about removing junk apps? I think some of those VZWSMS apk's you deleted might be affecting your ability to text because I removed everything VZW.apk and had too many issues with texting such as receiving the same message 30x's, people receiving an error message saying I never received their message even though I did, etc... So I reflashed an ODIN file and only removed the obvious apps such as Bing, Blockbuster,etc. Phone has been perfect with handcent since then. The stock messaging app will not tell you which exact message failed to be sent which is why I went with handcent.

Contact tech support and have the "flush" out your cell number. I had the same problem with my DROID and they did something to the switch in the network and I have never had an issue with MMS ever again.

I am the same person.
I also know exactly what the apps I remove do.
None of the apps I removed affect sms to cause the issues I am having.
My g/f has the same phone. I have removed the same apps on hers, she doesn't have the issues.
I have a buddy with a droid incredible on CM6, he flashed a new radio and couldn't text his GF, but only her.
I have another friend with a Droid2 who cannot use handcent.
The handcent boards have posts from people on every network with various phone who have various issues.
I never had a problem with handcent on my N1.
So then, Mr. Logic boy. Put that together for me with the pieces I have given you.
let me know what you come up with.
P.S.: You may have missed the "I went back to stock and it still didn't work" part of This Thread.
Make sure the stock Mms.apk app is there, reboot and give it a try. I also saw a few days ago you moved the sns apps off - out of curiosity, do you know what these do? For some reason I left them in there. I know you said you went back to stock and all, but I had some issues when I tried to get rid of the stock Mms.apk. That's all I can think of. Outside of that, try doing a logcat while sending a text to see what the logs say.

The sns enable the syncing with the integrated Twitter, Facebook, and Myspace clients into your address book and the TouchWiz widgets. I have no use for these, as to me it's unnecessary contact clutter, and sync drain to boot.
The stock Mms app can be replaced, and has been, but I use the stock for the ability to select multiple recipients which is absent in the Android stock mms.
I haven't figured out all the differences between the Verizon and T-mo network stuff yet, but I will do some research as I have time, because I am 90% sure my problem lies there. The tech support I've been able to get through to seems uninterested in any kind of in depth troubleshooting, instead urging me to replace the handset, which I will not do.
I had same issue and I uninstall and put it back without using the back up data from a back up . Worked great .

SMS Issues
If you look at your contacts and see an + in front Example (+1-555-555-5555) it will not send. Im coming from GSM service so I had to re-edit all my contacts and remove all the + symbol from the front. It worked for me. Hope this helps with any SMS issues not just directly to Handcent.

I hate when something that drives you completely crazy is this simple.
Why in the hell doesn't Verizon know this? ha. Thanx.

I was wondering if you resolved your problem with Handcent? I have a problem now where if I try and attach a picture to a mms directly from the camera Handcent force closes. I tried the same thing with the stock MMS and same result. I went to Rom Manager and downloaded the MMS.apk for the ROM that I am running. I tried it again on Handcent, same result, but I was able to do it from the stock MMS I downloaded. I personally like all the options that Handcent has and would like to know if you have any suggestions regarding my problem.
Yeppers. Whatever the issue was stopped after I changed my methods of building from stock a bit.
Never managed to pin point it.

I'm confused by the notes about the "+" in front of phone numbers? Why would you have a "+" like that, and what does that have to do with GSM? Furthermore, can you send a text to these numbers with the stock Messaging app, but NOT Handcent? Or does it work in neither? Thanks.
If you find a specific, reproduceable issue with Handcent though, especially if you know the cause, let me know if you want, because I've been working with one of the developers (or the developer, I'm not sure) - Jack, directly and frequently. I'm the one that cleaned up the Handcent forums to get rid of all the spam threads/users recently (if you've ever been there, you'll know how horrible it was prior), and helped him get it changed over to SMF from phpbb2, etc. I'm also a mod on the forums there, and I've been testing a few bugs directly with him, on beta builds of Handcent. So I can certainly bring something to his attention directly if it warrants it.
What's the best app for stopping the 9016 sms?

you can use Redlist to block them if you add them to redlist and blacklist.

try calling sprint or whoever your carrier is and they should be able to stop it.

Pretty much every sms app allows blacklisting but the stock one, try chomp, go, handcent.

I got it, you have to disable 'Notifications' in the stock messaging app.

Well, now I don't get notified of my text messages duh
Have handcent and red list but they keep appearing in the notification bar
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
I haven't used vvm for a while, but I used redlist and it worked. It just sucked because the notification icon is black so it's hard to see against a dark status bar.
You have to turn off all sms app notifications and turn on notifications in redlist.

You can also text "block 9016", without qutoes to 9999.

Do not block 9016 through Sprint, as you will stop receiving voicemails.
Handcent's blacklist didn't work for me to block 9016, but Go SMS Pro worked.
*some* newer ROMs give the stock messaging app the option to block 9016, like this one. Blocking it from within the stock messaging app, even if it's not the one you use for day to day use, should block it for any and all SMS applications.
jaybob got the code to block 9016 from kushdeck and evervolv, so I'm hopeful there's a way to simply patch the messaging app without requiring a new ROM. At the same time, we're getting swarmed with a lot of quality ROMs these days so people shouldn't' be afraid to try one (or more) out. Life is good for Hero owners. We are spoiled thanks to some great developers.

I am using Google voice and did that and still getting voicemails through sprint. Just don't get multiple notifications.

i finally got SVVM to work on my hero running cm7 (7.0.3), just lastnight, & i use "super private conversation" to block the 9016 text messages, i tried redlist, but still got a notification.
edit: not really sure how i got VVM working, it took several hrs, trying several different ways.
i went back to my stock 2.1 rooted rom, updated the VVM, & used TI backup to backup the VVM, & kinda followed the directions on the aospcmod repo page, method 2, & even used the TI VVM backup off that page, along with the stuff on cyanogens forum, & from www.thetechtemple.com

Thanks. I put Redlist on and didnt seem to do squat. But I didnt change these settings.
I had this same issue with both my hero and evo. I found a fix for it on another site:
"To fix this, go into Handcent, press menu, settings, application settings, default messaging applications and then check "disable". Then go to your VVM application, hit menu, compose and enter your own number as the send to, hit record for 4 or 5 seconds, then hit send. The VVM app will then download any messages you had waiting."

I am using Stock GB version 20G... My Messaging App is showing "1" home screen but there are no texts. I have tired.. Battery pull, trying another sim card, deleted Messages data...
I can't think of anything else to try and don't want to do a hardware reset...
Any ideas???.
I had the same problem and solved by deleting the sms database.
You have to delete /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db
That's the SMS database file. After that, reboot your phone and try to receive a SMS to regenerate the file.
You can backup that file just in case.
Cheers!

When ever iv had that problem I just waited for another message and it cleared the 1 away.
Still got it showing 1 on the homescreen Messaging app. Deleted all android data on internal sd & external sd. Been texting off/on since it happened Friday. Just trying to ignore it but am sure it will delete itself after a couple of weeks lol (I hope).
U could try flash a new ROM if u want. Lol
For me, deleting the file with Root Explorer did the trick.

Just thought I would mention that its strangely sorted it self lol. As it was New Years, sent loads of texts and let them build up and it was showing 23 on Messaging App. Left them for a while and then started to read each one.
For some reason, this then refreshed the amount of messages and its not showing any texts unread now . Seems yet another bug with the O2X?.

If you are using an alternative messaging app, then you need to disable the notifications from the stock messaging app. Otherwise it will always be showing that there are unread messages.

No, its the original LG Optimus 2X Stock GB Messaging App lol. Never used a another one as I like the standard messaging app... So, it was never that.
Still find it all strange though :-$

Try and send yourself loads of texts and let them build up.. Then click on them one by one. That's what sorted mine, but got 23 texts from.different people on New Years Eve lol.
ok I am having the worst luck with TINY problems on this D4. so I was having a problem where blurcontactsync was causing my contacts to crash if I tried to use them, I found a simple fix to rename the apk to .bak, and it worked
Now I noticed that when I get a text message I do not receive any kind of notification. No smiling message in the notification bar, no notification tone, no vibrate. I have gone into text message settings and set the tone, I have gone into general settings and set the tone. I even went into titainium backup and froze "Messaging, and Universal Inbox" because I thought they might be interfering just like the blur contacts sync. no luck Still do not receive any kind of indication not even the LED flashing.
all my other notifications work fine, if I get an email, or a missed call I get a notification tone and a flashing green light....I extensively searched XDA and people were having this problem with the droid X but it was some kind of update bug and was fixed with a new patch....anyone have any ideas what I could do to get my notifications working again??
Hmm I can't replicate this problem on mine but do you use the stock text messaging app? Try a third party texting app like Handcent and then send a test to yourself from text.vzw.com and see if you get the notification.

yea I'm currently using the stock app I was hoping to avoid a 3rd party app but I guess Im going to dive into that. I can just freeze my stock msg app right?

I wouldn't freeze the stock messaging app, I believe that's still necessary even with a 3rd party app (speaking of, I highly recommend GoSMS, but have also been happy with Handcent in the past).
I remember seeing over on DroidForums.net that someone froze their stock messaging app and wasn't receiving any texts after that. Give it a shot but if you don't get any texts for a while I'd unfreeze
Hello.
Forum read.
But I have not found how to solve the problem.
SMS is not sent, but come.
Firmware: ZV8 stock, roots.
I am not in the U.S. and not Verizon network respectively.
Help please.
Thank you.

Stock messaging app or something from the market? If it's not the stock messaging app, make sure you still have the stock messaging app installed.

I use stock messaging app. When I press "Send" - message status "Sending". After a few minutes I get notification - the message was not sent.
Do you have data service? 3g/4g? Iirc sms/mms, at least here in the states, use data to send but sms uses cellular service to receive. Other than that I'm at a loss. Idk.

Yes I have 3G mobile network.
I had a problem with 3G. When I turned on "Mobile Internet" 3G icon does not appear and the internet did not work.
After installing SetDNS program and select "Google DNS" problem resolved.
As I understand it you are saying need to enable the transfer of data to send a message. But does not work.
I am very sad
Are in any other ideas?
Have you tried a different sms app? go sms or handcent? HC has an option do all the sms duties the stock sms app should be doing. If all else fails, I can post the stock sms app and if you're rooted, then you can push it to your phone and see if something is wrong with your sms app.
