[Q] Problem regarding names - LG Thrill 4G

So I have a LG Thrill, rooted and with CM7 mod. The texts that I receive lack names even after I added the contacts. Is there any way to change this?

[Q] Can't send txt messages longer than 160 characters in multiple ROMS.

So I've been lurking and learning a lot on these forums. I have tried 3 different ROMS (wiping everything in-between) and none of them seem to be able to send text messages that need to be automatically broken up into more than one message. Instead it just fails. Shorter messages send just fine.
I am currently running the newest Zen Aria release I downloaded from here on 9/2/10.
I Had the same problem with CM 6 and another ROM I can't remember. I was hoping Zen would fix the problem since it is a 2.1 release with Sense.
Any ideas as to what I need to do to fix the problem?
Thanks from noob.
Are you using the stock messenger? If so, try Handcent. I know that it will send 160+ character messages on CM6, as I just sent a grocery list to the wife.

Thanks for the quick reply! I just tried Handcent, nice program. Unfortunately, I still would get a failure notice whenever I tried to send a message with more than 160 characters. Any more ideas out there?
In Handcent, do you have the option turned on to split 160+ character messages?
Menu -> Settings -> Send message settings -> Split 160
By default I believe this is turned off, so you have to turn it on.
This is a known issue that occurs on any rom except for cdma based sense roms. The Aria port is from a gsm phone, the frameworks are different. The cdma hero roms have something in the background that auto splits messages, AOSP and GSM ports lack this built in functionality so you must use handcent or chomp and turn on splitting in the options.
So I wanted to see if it was a problem with the ROMS, so I installed the
[ROM] Sprint 2.27.651.6 STOCK and it worked fine.
Then I came back here and read your messages.
I didn't check for an option in handcent DOH!
And I figured it must of been a ROM problem and you confirmed it for me.
Thanks for all your help!!

[Q]Why does each new message appear in a thread of it's own?

When replacing the stock "SecMms.apk" app with any other AOSP messenging app, or modded samsung "SecMms.apk", i have no problems in terms of functionality with messaging... sending and receiving works fine with no force closes..
However when i receive new messages, every new message comes in it's own new thread and never groups up...so multiple messages from the same person appear in multiple thread of their own. This doesn't happen in the stock app...at all
The reason for changing is i need emoji support and the stock MMS app does not support this
Currently using PANDORIAM ROM with perseus kernal if that makes any difference?
Anyone have any ideas why? Thanks
I had something similar when I went from HTC Sense to AOSP, when I restored SMS from SMS Backup & Restore.
I rectified it by opening the XML file and checking to make sure the phone numbers are the same (no spaces, consistent international prefixes etc) and then it was fine.
It seems that some SMS/MMS applications are more sensitive than others in how it defines a 'new' or 'unique' conversation.

[Q] Any fix for no picture messaging?

Question [Q] Any Fix for No Picture Messaging?
[Q] Any Fix for No Picture Messaging?
Hello,
FYI I have looked using the xda forum search functions and cannot find the question or answer for this.
Is there a fix for this, anyone? I can't send picture messages. Receive seems OK. I can receive picture emails, and have received a couple of MMS with small pictures. I just cannot SEND. I have searched and have not been able to locate the question asked or answered, especially for this ROM. I have been on XBSA ICS ROM v5 for a while now. I have most issues resolved (keys, text message length, etc.), BUT, I cannot seem to send picture MMS no matter what I try. Messaging app and GO SMS Pro both stay stuck on send. I have tried:
- GO SMS (great for text, no picture send)
- regular Messaging app (inverted and not inverted, whatever that is)
- Multiple settings (preserve image size, don't preserve image size, manual entry of APN, etc., etc.)
- I have tried using the mms.apk for ICS from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1591989
- Before that (above) I used mms-non-inverted.apk that was in the XBSA v5.2 ROM (or the original ROM, whichever it arrived in)
- I have viewed the suggested links presented when starting this thread (clearing messaging app cache, etc.)
My APN (Straight Talk) is set up; calls, texts, internet, GPS all OK. Is this a network issue? Baseband? If so, what/why?
My phone is LG Thrill P925 with XBSA SU670 ICS ROM, 'Jeckyll and Hyde' kernel with no additional clock changes
I also use straight talk. I'm not on ICS but I did have the same problem, the issue turned out to be one of my apn settings.

[Q] merging multiple sms into 1 message for the recipient (at&t)

Hello there. At&t user here. I have been using at&t for a while and can't switch carriers, and was wondering if anyone could solve this dilemma for me.
I need long messages to get merged to one message for the recipient, which would probably best be suited by having them converted to mms.
I was wondering if the moto x has this feature, as it is the one phone I am looking at on at&t, or if anyone knows an app that can do this, and if I could install this on the moto x unrooted.
Handcent for example, merges them into one and converts to mms, but it needs the sms to be at least 3 sms's long before it does that, so that ones that are between 160-320 characters still get split. I know that gosms doesn't allow this either. This is work-related, so if anyone could help me I would be forever thankful.

I have a stock, unrooted moto x on verizon, but I imagine the settings in the stock messaging app would be the same. There is an option to use MMS for Group Messaging that states "Use MMS to send a single message when there are multiple recipients". Maybe just adding your own number along with the intended recipient's and sending the long message as a group message would be an easy fix? SImilar to copying yourself in on an email.
Edit: Just tested this idea and it works. I sent a long message to myself and another recipient and it automatically sent as a single MMS. Did not receive split messages on either phone, so this could be a workaround for you.

MMS Issue + Invalid Recipient Issue

Has anyone noticed an oddness with the stock messaging app on the P9?
When I send out a group message, say to 2 or 3 of my friends. When they reply to the message, their messages come separate as individual messages and not show up in the original message thread that was sent.
I had the EVA-10(Chinese dual sim 64gb) but got rid of that and got the L09 Int'l Unlocked single sim version. Both are doing the same thing.
Just wanted to see if anyone knows if there is a solution to fix this?
Also, I didn't have this issue on the Chinese version but I am having it on this Int'l Unlocked version. The stock messaging app is giving me this error when I want to text someone. 3rd party apps work but the stock is not allowing me to text people within the app. If I go under contacts and choose to send a text through the contacts app with the default messaging app, it works just fine but it won't work from the messaging app directly. Really odd.
Thanks
Huawei P9 stock SMS app issues - need group MMS fix
I confirm having the same issue with the unlocked international (EVA-L09) version of the Huawei P9.
You can fix the texting individual people by reformatting your contact numbers into appropriate international format with Playstore app "Twitch 2.0". That worked great for me and avoided the need for any root access.
I still need a fix for the group MMS issue. All me sends to/from a group always come through individually.
Hope we find a fix!!
Yes I noticed the invalid number issue had something to do with only US numbers. Every int'l number I had in my contacts would work just fine. All I had to do was to put a +1 in front of the US people and that fixed the issue but like you said no solution for the MMS issue at the moment. I am hoping with @paulobrien getting a ROM out soon, we might get our issue resolved. I will shoot a tweet out to Huawei too but doubt they will even respond.
Any update on this issue? I'm experiencing the same problem and was hoping someone had figured it out by now.
I know this is an old thread, but was hoping someone found a fix for the group MMS issue? I have a P10 and the same thing is happening. Huawei support was no help.
