I would like to know if there is a way to get the sent time of an sms message rather than the received time, this is useful when the phone has been switched off and only receives the text after turning on. I think there may be an option on the cm messaging app to do it (there was on my last phone (zte blade) with cm10) but i don't want to install cm on my 4x at the moment.
I have root and unlocked bootloader.
Thanks

Hi Peeps,
For some strange reason my SGS has decided to stop sending sms. After hitting send the messages just get stuck on "sending"
I have checked the message centre number and the mms setting just in case. I have tried the sim in an old nokia and it texts just fine.
It was having intermittent issues with sms around a week ago, where it wouldnt send a message, so i would send the same one again and then both would send simultaneously. However now its not sending at all.
I am running Froyo.xwjp6 with kernel 2.6.32.9.
I have also tried instaling Handcent SMS but i just get the error "message not sent"
Thoughts on a postcard?
Same here, although trying handcent has allowed me to send, but strangely, will intermittently fail, im sure its a froyo bug.

I managed to fix it. Couldn't be bothered with trying to reflash the modem or even the os, so tried the Privacy-return to factory settings option just out of curiosity. Can't figure out what it did exactly but when it rebooted i had not lost any settings or applications, and all my home screen app shortcuts were still there. The only discernable difference was the lack of gadgets on the home screen, which I had to reinstall.
The important thing however is that messaging worked again. God knows why.
One susipicion I have is that this is due to my usage of Titanium Backup. I installed it when i was running Eclair, and each time i upgrade the OS i use it to restore my old system data and apps. Perhaps some change between Eclair and Froyo's messaging settings is being overwritten by and older version by Titanium. I suspect this as following the above factory restore I tried a Titanium restore and instantly it broke my messaging again. So I did the factory again and got them back. There wasn't really any need to use Titanium as I said before I didn't seem to lose any setting or apps, but did it anyway out due to that old cat's friend curiosity
Give it a go if u dare and see what happens
Let me know how u get on...
Ok so im still having the same problem.is there really noone out there with an idea?

After I rooted, im not receiving any text messages. But i know i can send messages. I could also make and receive phone calls. Ive tried using a sense rom to update prl and profile which updated but still not receiving text messages. Anyone have any ideas why?

Try sending the text 'Allow all' without the parentheses to 9999
Sent from Dorian's EVO 3D
Tried. Didnt seem to have worked. any more suggestions?
If the "allow all" text didn't work, and using a sense rom to update prl/profile doesn't work - I would suggest downloading the RUU and reverting completely back to stock. See if it works then, if it does root with z4 or w/e you like and go back to the rom/nandroid you had before.
if it doesn't work call sprint or bring it in to one of their stores
Also, just wondering; you do have plenty of free space on your phone right? People seem to get really weird problems when their phone is running low on internal storage.
And do you use google voice for voicemail?
And what, if anything, did you do at or around the time it started acting up? (ie installed new apps, flashed new kernel, etc.)

Question1: Yeah i have plenty of space no apps installed.
Question2:Yeah i use google voice. but is not set up right now since i just rooted.
Question3: First noticed no messages being received when i rooted i believe.
Guess illl try to the RUU and see if that works.
Used RUU. Still not being able to receive messages. going to have to contact Sprint.
Try useing a different RUU if your going to doit again, see if that works...just a thought. Later

I have been having problems receiving texts as well ever since I installed a new ROM (this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090234) 2 days ago.
All functions seem to work fine, including outgoing text messages, but incoming do not work at all.
I had been running Cyanogen Mod 6 for about a year without any problems except speed, just wanted to try a newer and possibly faster ROM. I did have issues whenever I would get a "low space" indicator but that doesn't seem to be the case with the current issue.
I am using Google Voice for voicemail.
My service provider is Cellular South, btw, not Sprint.
Ran the RUU but still didnt work. so i updated to newest build and still didnt work. still havent had a chance to call Sprint.

Problem Solved. Since sprint merged with google my settings where changed and were set to receive text messages to google voice and not my phone. If anyone else has this problem just go to your account in google voice settings and make sure that theres a check mark next to receive text to phone. thanks to all for the help =)

That didn't work for me
Of course, I'm not on Sprint, but Cellular South. Still no joy on my end. I actually reverted back to my previous CyanogenMod via Nandroid, which WAS receiving text messages just fine, but now it doesn't work either.
I have the original Cell South 2.1 RUU I could use if necessary, but hoping not to have to do that. Looking like I might have to, though.
Finally got it up and running.
I was about to run the 2.1 RUU but then remembered I made a Nandroid backup of my 2.1 Sense-based config before the first time I rooted so I restored to it and dialed *228 to download the latest updates. The texts then started working, so then I reverted back to my Nandroid backup of my new ROM and it worked like a charm!

do you have google voice synced with sprint? the messages might be going to google voice
Just thought I'll ask if any official Rogers users that have updated their phones officially have experience Ghost Call or missing texts?
No issues what so ever with 20c update that we received. One thing I have noticed is that with that rom I have awesome battery all these other custom roms with stock speed still don't compare. And all these other custom roms only give me the H not H+ or 4g notification only my stock carry rom. But I have never had a ghost call or missing txt.

I've been getting some ghost calls and texts. I'm not sure how often it happens but I have gotten the occasional message from a friend saying I didn't respond to a text I never received or a telephone call I didn't answer.
I'm not quite sure of the frequency that it occurs but it does seem to be a headache at times.
Oh, is that why? I don't recieve 1 of 5 of the texts that my girlfriend sends. I thought it was her phone. And it explains why work has been saying they can't get me through my phone lately. Also, my native camera app doesnt work.
I have noticed that if I use the p920 cm build on my phone eventually I need to reboot because the radio goes haywire and I can't make/receive calls or texts.
Thanks for answering guys, so the verdict is even if you do it by the book you can still receive Ghost calls.
for the past few weeks i've been having trouble receiving some texts, i dont know what's happening.. I have an app called Mighty Text which allows me to sms from a computer or tablet. When using the app i realize that i get all my texts in the browser but my phone only alerts me about some sms received and neither do they show up the the stock messaging app...:crying::crying:
with this i have come to think that it's not the network causing the problem.. what else could be the problem?.
I'm currently on SlimBean 3.1 and i'm really loving this rom and would prefer not having to change roms...

It's not a ROM problem but a app or carrier problem. Your carrier most likely won't send your texts at 2 different places (unless specifically said). And when the app is on, you probably allow it to have priority over your text, therefor, it receives them instead of your phone.
Some carriers have apps like those on pc which will let you get your texts and such on both pc and your phone but I believe it has to be made by the carrier to allow it.

Hi all, strange issue and have researched to death and can't find a fix. I recently flashed a EPG2 ROM and noticed that I can't receive texts from specifically from other T-Mobile users using the STOCK messenger with advanced messaging. I can receive all other texts, and everyone receives all of my texts. If a problematic user sends me a text from any other texting app I get it, just not the stock app. The ONLY WAY for me to get their text is to also be on the stock app and on LTE or Wifi. Otherwise the text never hits my phone. I don't even get the old texts, only the ones they're actively sending. On their end it doesn't say delivered unless I've actually got it. They always get my text however, regardless of where I send it from (stock or third party) I don't know why they're phones keep trying to send me an advanced message when I'm not using advanced messaging, previously it would just come through as a standard text.
Some steps I've taken:
Updated modem and baseband and BL to EPG2
Turned on and off VoLTE (issue persists either way)
Narrowed issue down to t-Mobile users using stock samsung messenger on any Samsung Galaxy device
Verified I am able to receive texts on LTE and Wifi while in Stock messenger only
I would love some other minds on this, I'm trying to avoid another wipe. Thanks!:good:
