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.

I am running 5.5.886 and whenever I check for updates it always says the phone is up to date. Is there any way to force it to discover the available update?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
When the update is pushed to your phone you will see it. It isn't pushed to everyone at the same time. It is done in batches.
I have been checking for the update on my phone constantly since yesterday. The waiting is killing me. Hoping to see this solve the data connection issues.

I just switched back to my Tbolt until the update comes through.
I too, am still waiting to get the update, running 5.5.886 and having connectivity issues as well, Verizon replaced my first unit when i started having this problem, but the new device still has the same issue... Hope this update fixes my $300 calculator.
I completely understand a scheduled push release so not everyone gets notified at once. But why make it so difficult for those that want to upgrade now.

Disappearing update
Interestingly, I got a notification to download my update. I told it to download, attached it to Wifi to let it download. IT completed...and disappeared. As in it did not run, and it is not located in the /cache folder (hidden or visible).
Has anyone encountered this?
I am stock with 43v3r rooted, no frozen or deleted bloat. Didn't find a reference in the search or my Googlefu sucks today. I appreciate any help anyone can offer.
-------------------
Nm. Appears it would not run until I got to a good on-network signal. Then executed and updated properly. Still not sure where the file was hidden though...
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.

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

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.

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.
When I text I get duplicate replies. It did not do this under stock rom which was .902. I upgraded to Eclipse 2.2 and when I did that if I texted then I get duplicate replies always 2. I have a friend that has upgraded it Liberty 3 and he has the same problem.
I have a Bionic.
Hell I've gotten as many as 9 copies of the same reply. That's while using handcent, got duplicates with stock app as well.

Occasionally, I will get multiples as well. Sometimes 10 or more.
I use Go SMS on 902 / Eclipse 2.2.
Really annoying.
When you notice it starting do a battery pull. Its not the ROM. Its the app..
Look through the settings and make sure that in the stock you change the time stamp settings to no stamps. And if using go make sure the avoid duplicate messages is checks. It cured me.

Two days now and no duplicates. Reverting back to timestamp to see if it comes back.
Oh wow, and here I thought it was just me having this problem.
I'll have to try out the timestamp toggle because nothing is worse than getting the same message 10 times in a row.

So a few days past with no issues after reverting the timestamp however last night I got multiple duplicate text messages from the same contact. Three texts in a row x three texts received. Then it stopped. I find it strange that the timestamp appears to be the problem. Oh well, removed timestamping again.
Can be a cell tower problem sometimes. Either the tower you are near or the tower whoever is sending to you is near.
Or they just sent it 3 times on accident
I've been having the same issue. Called Verizon and they said it's a hardware issue with the Bionic. They're sending me a white Razr to replace it.

This would be my fourth replacement Bionic, and I asked if I could get a different phone and first she told me the Razr was taken off the replacement list but she'd email her supervisor if it was put back on. While she waited for a response, she said I could get the HTC Rezound, and I declined. She then said the Razr was available in black, and I asked nicely if I could get white and she said yes it's available.
