Strange situation happened last night/this morning...
Last night I had reflashed GV on a cache/dalvik wipe then DreadGinger. I was texting "jane" just fine then all of a sudden i would not receive any texts from her. She had sent me many and I wouldnt receive them, she could send and receive to others fine and so could I, just had the issue between us two.
1. I wiped cache/dalvik and reflashed GV and still wouldnt receive them (except i got one random one but that was it)
2. So then I redownloaded GV and wiped cache/dalvik and reflashed the new one and all is well.
Just thought inquiring minds would have any guesses on what could have caused this. If you flash a ROM so many times can it corrupt it? Or why it was just between me and her?
Lol Ik this is a lot just thought I would ask for future reference and cuz I'm afraid to flash anything now till ik what could have caused it
I've had the same problem with "Jane" a few times. She's using a stock Revo and I'm on Gvolt 1.3. I can't help with what's causing the issue but it always clears up after a reboot.

reboot didnt work, wiped data, and now some issues
got one every now and then, frustrating lol
I had this problem too... its because the revolution is switching to 4g voice and text soon...

how many characters are the text messages? is "Jane" with AT&T? this will happen when exchanging long text messages with AT&T people because of the CDMA vs GSM thing....there is a workaround if this is the case....
They were short and she isn't on at&t. The issue is resolved now though! Thinking maybe it was on Verizon's end....surprise surprise lol

Yeah, I couldn't get a text delivered to "Jane" once for a week... Verizon doesn't take kindly to these femanons...

Can anyone give me Jane's number? I've been lonely these last few nights.
Also, I've experienced similar issues in the upstate SC area.

Probably the worst place the ask this question. Drill down how many bionic owners live in Akron, then drill down how many actually know what xda-developers is...May want to try the vzw support forum, but since you already called, pull the battery, if it doesn't come back, see about bringing the handset in.
I live in akron but will not be home until tomorow.

I am home now and 4g is working great on my phone here in akron.

I live near canton and 4G works every day for me in Canton and worked fine in Akron this weekend.
They had to send me a new sim. Idk why but they turned my original sim off? Even tho it picked up 3g
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
Hopefully the SIM card worked. I took my bionic into vzw with complaints about the phone losing data, and when changing from 4g to 3g, it would loose data connection also, and it wouldnt pick up 4g when it should have. first they gave me a new SIM and sent me on my way.
That didn't help, and two days later, went back into vzw. After a factory data wipe and telling the vzw rep that a wipe wouldnt help, luckily the phone wouldnt go into 4G in the store, and they finally realized that the phone had a problem.
The new phone seems to be much better, but occasionally it will take a while to switch from 4g to 3g or 1g.

The switch from 4g or 1x to 3g is a problem that all verizon 4g phones have. It is a problem with the 1st generation 4g chips. The only debate Is whether it is a hardware problem or a firmware problem. Unfortunately for all of us, verizon is skirting the issue and seriously procrastinating about fixing it.

I'm just curious if anyone else is having an issue with their data dropping out on a stock D3.

Mine has been fine. What ROM stock are you running? The very first ROM that Verizon released is buggy but doihg an update to 5.6.890 is a good idea.

I believe she is currently running that.

Then you need to call Verizon Tech Support and tell them the exact issue from another phone besides the one ailing. A couple simple suggestions: do a *228 options 1 and 2, and make sure it is set to Home Only on roaming. Another possibility is the battery saver data manager is running and making it so it shuts off data during specific times and comes on when the screen is on. Make sure the wireless isn't set to Global but CDMA only.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
We tried all of that. Thanks for the suggestions though. Nothing seems to work though. We just got this phone like a week ago because her other was doing the same thing. The new one did it while I was on the phone activating it lol. She's tired of it and I'm tired of hearing the complaints so I told her to sell it because she wants an iPhone.

I am running Gingervolt 1.3, with blitzkrieg 2.1 & ICS Responsiveness and over the past few days every time I send a message to anyone they receive the message 3 times. I have not installed anything that would change the messaging (as far as I'm aware) so I'm not sure what is causing this. I talked to Verizon and they are "looking into the matter" but in the meantime it's very annoying because my phone just bombs people with messages when I send them anything.
Has anyone seen this issue? More importantly is there any way to fix it?
I'm curious if this is something even related to Gingervolt or if this is something that is happening in Verizon's hands, their systems or something else. When I look at my message log, it shows the message only being sent one time, even though they get it 3x.
Would reflashing Gingervolt 1.3 possibly resolve this issue?
I had this problem a couple times a months and months ago. Both on a stock phone and then on Revolt. Both instances it was a problem on Verizon's side and they fixed it in about a day. For the life of me I can't recall what they said was going on though..
For the life of me...
I cannot think of a single thing that has changed on my phone in the past few weeks. I have downloaded a couple FAOtD from Amazon but that's about it and I removed them once this started happening, it didn't fix the issue.
I talked to Verizon as I mentioned above, they sent the issue to their "specialists" so I now have been given a 48 hour window for them to resolve the issue. I don't really have much faith in them because this is the second time they have said their techs would fix it, but no results yet...
I really need to figure out what is going on here because I am driving everyone I message nuts with all these duplicates.
Are you using the stock messaging app or one from the market?
In the past few weeks I've been receiving between 3 and 17 of the same messages randomly... blame Verizon, I am. Seventeen!

This is from the stock messaging app. The one that you get when you flash Gingervolt 1.3.
Mine started doing it today. I just reflashed the gingervolt 1.3, blitzkreig 2.0 and dread ginger.
And I am using goto sms.
Before this morning, I did not have this problem.

Grab a replacement app and freeze the stock. If it keeps happening its server side, if it stops the problem solved, yeah?
I went. The vzw store for a separate reason and asked them abiut this texting issue. The folks at the store confirmed it is occuring but only on Revolution phones. They also said that no patch/fix is ready yet.

Went to a Verizon store and they said that the reboot issue is still an issue for people. I've had 7 reboots since I updated the day the update came out.
I guess the messaging not working right, is an issue also but I don't have that issue.
Anyone having issues or am I the unlucky one lol??

Seriously.. I have had this on 2 different revos ever since going to Gingerbread.

I only get the unresponsive screen here and there and that's on GV 2.0 gets quite annoying especially playing games.
Random reboots
I am willing to see if I get the random screen freezes vs the random reboots I was getting on my GV install.
Yeah
I had the same issues and called Verizon yesterday to let them trouble shoot the phone and it went south quick. They had me try a few things and eventually done a factory wipe only to get to the language screen and once I selected next to start activation BAM! Reboot so they asked me what phone I wanted! Offered me a Nexus I told them no don't like them, and it was going to be a used one to boot!! So ended up letting them give me a Brand New Razor Maxx it will be here Friday!! Love the Revo only had it 3 months, but time to move on I guess keep up the good work guys you will eventually get these to work but I cant wait that long!!!
Just had my first random reboot, should probably call Verizon before my warranty runs out.

Normally replacements will be sent out overnight. Odd that you have to wait until Friday.

That's why. Give it a few more times and they'll switch it more than likely. They tried to get me a different phone but they said after multiple replacements they will send a different phone.

I did unroot before calling but it didn't matter, I mentioned the random reboots and threw in the unresponsive screen (even though it only happened once) The rep immediately offered to send a replacement. He first asked if I had done the usual troubleshooting (powercycle, factory reset, etc...) and I said yes.
But you would definitely want to unroot it before mailing it back
I only unrooted first due to the new remote access they have ... didn't know how much info they could get with it.
My LG G Flex running on the AT&T Network has a weird issue going on and im wondering if anyone has the same issue. Its a D950.
Not every time, but sometimes when a send a text message is will sit at sending FOREVER, like a full minute. I can receive text messages during this time just fine, and if I send more messages they sit at sending until eventually they all send at the same time. Did not happen with my last phone.
Anyone have any insight?
No but i am on tmobile version

I'm thinking about just trying a factory reset.. But I'm just kind of doubting it will fix it in my head so I haven't done it yet.

A minute is forever? Hehe. I noticed it on my T-Mobile Flex today. I was in the basement though and didn't think much of it.
Sent from my LG-D959 using Tapatalk
Seems like forever.. I guess this phone is kind of disappointing me and I'm having a little buyers remorse.. And I just want the issue to be fixed.

Seems like a minor issue. Good thing you don't have Sprint. LoL. Maybe KitKat will fix it but I would just return it if I wasn't happy.

I have the same issue with mine. I have done the factory reset a couple times and it always comes back. it is as if the phone looses its "Handshake" with the tower while switching from LTE to non-LTE and such. I have had mine sit at sending for over 5 mins a couple times....
I contacted LG and all they said was to clear cache in the messaging app and if that doesn't work to send it to them for a software reload... Sigh..
Schollianmj do you have a d950 on AT&T?
Sent from my LG-D950 using Tapatalk
doesn't happen to me on T-Mobile; probably your carrier
Not the phone, its network related... ive gotten this occasionally on the last 4 phones ive had...
The last couple hours been switching my Sim from one phone to another and it does it with the G Flex, not with my note 2

I have noticed it. I also noticed it on my Optimus G. Not sure if it's an LG or AT&T thing, but it can be frustrating, even if it is infrequent.
