I've had it ever since I flashed gv 1.3
Then I googled it and people say just reply to it and it'll stop
Before I replied to it I get 1-3 every 2 wks
I replied to it 2 days ago and I've been getting 1 every 6-9 hrs
since last nite and today I've been getting it every hr
Very "F"ing annoying

Never heard of it but I can imagine that is very annoying. Though funny on my end since I don't have it

That was an old error on vzw when people would switch from basic phones with email to smartphones. The fix in those days was to reactivate the old phone and unsubscribe from the basic phone email, and then reactivate the Smartphone.

I thought I replied to this (long since forgot. Could have been at AC). Did you use the stock email app and then get rid of the account on the phone?

I just went through this 2 days ago! Here is what I found. Hope it helps you.
I put K9 mail on my wife’s phone. She had her account set-up with the stock crap email client. Later that night she started to get OZmail texts. 2 hours later I got it sorted out!
After I installed K9, I uninstalled the stock crap email client. This is where I think I created the problem! There is a box in the settings that says something like (notify me) that you check. This is where the texts from OZmail come from as best as I can tell. I guess there is a text message that goes to the stock email client. When it is not intercepted it goes through as a text message.
The FIX! I had to reinstall the stock email client. Next: set it all back up to working status. Un-check the box (notify me)!!! Poof! Done!!! Been 2 days without problem.
I am NO expert! Just what worked for me. Good luck!

Having this same problem.

Thanx I'll try this next time it came back
I look back at all those messages and notice most of them end with MC=1 but I received other ends with MC=2 / MC=3 /MC=5 / MC=27
The 1st time I replied to end with MC=1
Here's the weird thing
4-6 hrs ago I receive another 1 end with MC=2 so I just replied to it and poof I haven't received any for the last 4-6 hrs and I've been getting it every hr for last 2 days
Hopefully it's gone for good
I'll update to confirm if it's gone

Do you have go contacts or go sms installed? Any third party email or contact app will cause this to happen. I installed go contacts and had similar issue. Clears up after uninstall.

None. Just had yahoo mail, work email and gmail. I have had all three on before and never an issue. These just started popping up. I uninstalled Yahoo Mail and deleted my work email to see how it goes. Texting "stop" as the VZW rep said to do, doesn't stop anything...lol

It has something to do with previously having email or visual voice mail on a prior phone and not unsuscribing before switching phones. I looked into it and it's quite a hassle to stop, you have to reactivate the old phone then unsubscribe. I've had about 2 or 3 separate weeks where I got them 6-10 times a day to my Revo. They'll stop after a week or so.

gmail bug? unread emails marked read

Dear forum,
I'm having this issue with gmail marking my unread emails as read at midnight everyday. It only applies to emails received the previous day. That is, if I mark emails from previous days as UNREAD, these emails will not be marked as READ at midnight (only emails received during the day).
This happened to me after I updated my HTC Hero CDMA (Sprint) to 2.1 (not RUU, but the previous release rom; couldn't post link because I'm new)
After upgrading to CM6 (Aug 29), the problem continue to persists.
I couldn't find any information googling. I know my android phone is causing it because if I turn off the phone at night, this issue does not happen.
Can anyone confirm this bug? Any suggestions on fixing it?
Thanks.
Vinh
Hi, does anyone else have this issue? It's still happening for me, but every few days now as opposed to daily at around midnight. Thanks.

Are you using the gmail app? Or are you using the stock email? Try using a different one, like gmail (if you're using the stock), k9 if you're using gmail. Also try wiping your cache and clearing the data from gmail. Try it and report back.

@Twolazyg Thanks for the response. I am using the Gmail App (updated to the latest version). I want to stay in Gmail App and not use the stock email app or K9 since I want the gmail features. I've wiped out the cache as you have suggested. I'll wait a few days to see if all my unread messages get marked as read and report back then. Again, thanks.
Unfortunately, the problem still persists. Any other suggestions? This is driving me nuts.
Did you ever find a solution? I am having the same problem. And it has occurred off and on for a over a year. I started with Eclair then to FroYo and now Gingerbread. (I have a first release of the HTC Droid Incredible.) I prefer the features of the Gmail app and so that is what I use. My phone is rooted and for the most part, does what I want it to do outside of this pesky email issue.
Maybe your wife is snooping your emails at night.

I NEVER found a solution. I thought I was the only one having this issue. Tried many things, from upgrading my CM rom and upgrading the Gmail app, yet nothing worked. I just upgraded to an HTC EVO 3D last week and this doesn't happen anymore (I think).

I take this back. This marking of emails as read at night also happens on my HTC Evo 3D...now I'm thinking, it must be me. I do have a script that backs up my gmail account every night on my server....is this marking them as unread??? AHHH

Confirmed. This was not a bug in the Gmail app or the Android OS. It stems from the fact that I use getmail to make backup my gmail account daily. Sorry! Now I just need to figure out how to back up without marking the messages as read.
Consider this problem SOLVED!
mine was doing the same thing until i went to my gmail account on my computer n deleted them. im not sure why they werent showing up in the app but they showed up on the site.

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.
ithecho84 ,
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 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.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
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.

Facebook Notifications not working? Possible real Fix...

Hello.
I was having trouble with the facebook notifications not working in 1.5.2.
I tried to uninstall/install the app
Clear cache
Installed 1.5.0
Re-flash ROM
etc etc etc...
And nothing worked.
I logged with a friends Facebook account in my Captivate and Push notifications were working !!
I re-logged to with my account and notifications still not working, so WTF?
So I started to mess around with the Facebook settings, privacy etc, and nothing helped to receive push notifications...
Until I deactivated my account and re-activated, and now I have notifications back! Is like a hidden setting in facebook that tells if push notifications are enable/disable, and after re-activating my account in some way is restores it, no idea but is working now...
If you have this problem, give it a try!
To deactivate: Account->Account Settings->Deactivate Account
To Activate: just log in.
Best Regards
Trying it now ... I've tried everything else... hope this works ...
EDIT: HOLY MONKEYS BATMAN IT WORKED! I'VE HAD MY DINC FOR 7 MONTHS NOW, WITH PROBABLY 12 DIFFERENT ROMS, AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAS EVER EVER WORKED! Thankyou!
Details:
I just flashed the newest version of Magnolia with Clockwork 3.x. Clean slate wipe (other than sd).
I deleted the old version of fb that came with the rom (just from the app list in settings), cleared all data from that....DID NOT set up facebook for HTC Sense when doing original setup of phone right after reflash.....
Logged onto FB from my pc, deactivated, waited until I got the email, then logged in again.
DL latest FB from the market and set it up, asked someone to comment on a status, and voila, fb started notifying me EVERY TIME someone did, not just every 30 mins like the settings show...
YAYAYAYAY!! I'm so happy now! I'm gonna pass the word along.
Thank you!
Did it work for you?
Yes - see above edited post!

My notifications are popping up in real-time. The only thing that goes once hourly is messages or friend requests, as far as I can tell. I'm watching my facebook on my computer and my phone alerts me nearly at the same moment my pc does.
umm... ??
deactivate my facebook account? message posted day before april fools day...
something doesnt add up
You can do that without deleting your profile. I hear of people deactivating it everytime they log off for privacy concerns. When deactivated you dont show up on any of your friends pages or searches. Just log on to reactivate, you'll get an email welcoming you back.
you dont loose anything?
Nope. Not that I know of. Check out cnn story. http://articles.cnn.com/2010-11-12/...ngs-new-facebook-facebook-accounts?_s=PM:TECH

AT&T Messaging... like GV but from AT&T

http://www.att.com/shop/apps/att-messages.jsp?source=IAMS2500000000ZCU#fbid=2j54IbKcpyR
Its essentially just like Google Voice but uses your own AT&T number with voicemail, texting, mms, and missed call notifications.
Just loaded it... be weary, looks like it take some time to sync and begin... its not as quick as GV either
do you see any obvious advantages? other than being able to use your own number
EDIT: installed it, nice app. i like it
Backup and review of all messages on the cloud. Slightly safer than Google.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
tried it right now and here is my thoughts on it
Pros: You are able to text from your computer using YOUR number and not the number that google has given you. Also if you dont have a signel on your phone you are still able to text from your computer, this also goes if you dont have your phone with you but you are still at a computer. Its an all in one system were you can get your text and voicemail in one place
cons: For some reason i cant get the website to load my messages but that could be just me, at this moment you cant disable notifications, not that much customization
i feel that it can be a great app given more time to improve on it but for right now i installed it tried it and uninstalled it because google voice is still better
Took a couple hours but it started working super smoothly. I don't like how it handles missed calls so now I use the messaging app for texts and what not and Google voice for voicemail.
Sometimes tthe messages don't sync but a force kill and app restart fixes it.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
does this require a texting plan? currently I block all texts to and from my phone and just use GV, does this use data only for texts? I'm guessing AT&T wouldn't be that stupid...
it requires data and text but the data doesnt count unless you have a 4g plan (for now). just texts at some point. says so in the fine print.

after you sync, give it a couple hours to settle (youll know when you only get notifications for the att app and not from the Android Messaging app).

Great timing for this app. I was debating purchasing a DeskSMS license but this is a good alternative.
this app is weird. i was kind of hoping for an app to sit in my sys tray so that i could see my texts from there and reply, like any other instant messaging app. This app requires you to log in to a clunky website to send and receive texts. the notifier app only tells you that you have messages.
It is clunky. Also expired my VM. ATT guy had no idea about the app or what it does and couldn't answer why the VM was expired. Seems that this app sets up another VM or sorts. Not crazy about the notifications either as they don;t seem to update when on the conversation...I dunno. Deleted it per the ATT service rep...funny really as one section has no idea what the other is doing.
I just get a message that says it can't complete the setup and I should contact AT&T support...
After you install the app and activate the service, this will change your voicemail retrieval number. If you used to call from another line to check your VM, you will need to call a different number from now on. Of course you also get Visual VM now.
I coud not access my mailbox, I was getting a prompt saying that my mailbox was not found, until I realized about this change. I fixed it by updating the call forwarding setting, under Android settings > call settings.
Tried it and don't like it. "Messages" app seems to take up a lot of RAM as well as battery. Made my phone a little laggy at times as well. How do I get my OLD voicemail back? I hate calling and having to enter my PIN # every single time to check messages. I used to be able to just click the notification icon and it'd go right through. Any help would be appreciated.
I had to call ATT to have the VM reset. It turned in to an hour long process with the ATT guy calling me back 3 times.
Edit..I take that back PIN still isn't working.
the app tells you that your voicemail will change. Its not a surprise by any means. If you want to change back your voicemail just ask that the give you basic voicemail. Takes two minutes. Just don't forget to set your greeting.

[Q] Messaging apps always failing!

Hi, I need help over here; I’m going ****ing insane with this ****ty issue!
I use messaging apps A LOT in order to keep in touch with my sister who lives in another city, with my GF who also lives far away from me, and with all my friends...
I started to use Whatsapp and it worked perfect until quite some time ago, it was slow and laggy and messages did not arrived until I opened the app, (when it was idle, the messages came until I reopened it) and some messages were not sent until I force closed the app... I got tired and started to use kik, and it worked perfect, until the same **** started to happen... I went back to whatsapp and same **** happened again... I started to use hookt, which worked great until this past Monday... it is acting exactly the same as whatsapp... it is slow and laggy... and messages are not arriving until I open the app…
Please! Can you help me? Could this be an internet issue?
Im using Euroskank (CM7 kang)...
You could try deleting the messages that are inside the app, I've noticed that the OG texting app gets laggy if I don't clear the messages, so I put a limit on each conversation of 200 texts per person. Hope this helps.
