[Q] Reoccurring issues sending sms - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I've been having an issue for the last little while that I can't seem to find the solution to anywhere.
A little background info:
phone is htc one m7 - rogers version running viperone 6.2.1
I've been using viperone since 6.0 and I love it. Before that I was on cleanrom.
The issue pertains to sending sms (regardless of what messaging app I use, stock, hoverchat, before that was fb messenger).
What basically happens is during an sms conversation, and at random times, I attempt to send an sms but it fails to send.
The message then sends on the second attempt, however the person i'm talking to receives a double message.
I also notice on the very left side of the status bar, near the edge, an icon appears and disappears when sending or
receiving an sms. It flashes so quickly that i cannot make out the icon. From what I notice, this happens on every send/receive message.
It's not a huge issue, but definitely an annoyance that I would like to fix.
All of your help would be greatly appreciated.

Try reflashing your rom.
Try another rom.
(Make a backup of current rom first, just in case)

The exact same issue happened on each new version of viperone, and from what I remember, on cleanrom as well. When I did move to viperone, it was a full wipe.
Could this possibly be firmware or radio related issue?

X1 SMS Notification problem

Hi all.
I have discovered a problem with an X1.
When recieving a SMS, It will not display I have a new text message...or sms icon on the top title bar.
However, If I go into the messaging.. I will find.. that i have indeed had a new text.
sometimes.. i can check my phone front screen many times..and then only if i go into messaging, will i see the text has actually come ages ago..but no notifications on homescreen or titlebar...but once into messaging... it will show...in blue.. one new sms.
It the stock r3a rom..and no hardspl/anything else installed or on.
I have hard reset, and tried it with zero apps installed...however, it still does it.
Anyone else come across this issue? or more so.. a fix?
Same thing here
I also experienced the same problem. So, if i received a message, but i don't wake my phone, it wont give any sound or any notification. But if i wake it up, there will be a notification about it, although it was sent an hour ago.
Has anyone find the solution for this?
THx
I had a problem a while ago in which the the notifier in Xperia panel would say I have new messages but when I open the message-inbox there's nothing there. So I only recieved texts 10% of the time, very very annoying and I had T-Mobile send it back because it wouldn't work properly even after using SE update service.
Seems like nobody reading this post. LOL
Or nobody has the same problem...
Is everyone experiencing this problem using T-Mobile?
Maybe this is the issue?
Maybe some app you installed is causing the problem. My notifications are working fine and Voice Command even reads them. I have the new Christian WM6.5.

Stock Rom
nothing installed at all. It has just been to SE for repair on Keyboard sticking issue... keys would re-repeat..and have to really depress the space bar.
This is now resolved...but the SMS notification issue still exists.
I wondered if those others suffering also... had A T-Mobile sim.?
Mine is a Generic_UK device and was purchased outright for £500 from expansys...and has not been flashed in anyway except official upgrades. (work device... my personal device is flashed more times than i would care to admit.)
For what it's worth, my boyfriend has the same problem, and he's on AT&T.

Why is it we are having multiple problems with this issue... and no one really has ever addressed it?
Seems to be an issue that is fundamental to a phone nowadays..
I once had the problem that indeed the notification popped up but the message was not stored in the sms directory. Anyway, installing a new rilphone and radio solved that problem for me. Why don't you try different rilphones or radio if you did not already?
Sorry that I can't really help here...

Delayed Notifications in Cooked ROMS..

Hello,
I've been having a problem with a few of the custom builds (Timor, AthineOS, CellPro Evo), and one problem I've noticed with each of the ones I've used is that when I get a text it doesn't notify until I wake the screen back up. Once I do that it vibrates and rings, but its up 30min after I got the text. Is this a known problem with a fix or am I better off sticking with a stock ROM?
Thank You
Funny you mention this, because I'm having the same problem. I thought it may have been a tweak I'd done and was going to do a hard reset today.
The only cab I've installed is Microsoft MyPhone. And had to edit the reg to allow the changing of the notification light timing in the Sounds & Notifications settings.
Do you know if this happens before you've made any changes to settings or installed any software on the phone? I don't recall having any problems like that myself with Timor installed, but I'm also not sure I received a text in that time. I haven't tried the other ROMs you listed.
It seemed to happen after I edited the reg settings.
Doesn't seem to be a constant occurance though. I happened to me 12 hours ago, even after a soft reset. But now I just sent a test message to myself, and all is ok... weird
Well I've regularly installed My Phone, Marketplace, Bing, Groovefish, and MP3 Trimmer, but I'd rather not delete and hard reset everything to do a test if someone knows a fix
I haven't had this issue...I am using the Valkrie Firestorm 5 and even when my phone is sleeping my phone vibrates as I get SMS messages and emails...
Well I have hard reset and held off installing using the My Phone. Everything seems well with recieving on time...but now the screen turns on everytime i get a message. It didn't used to do that and I find it quite annoying..I looked around my settings and Advanced Config and couldn't find anything.
It happens in the stock HTC rom too.
It normally doesn't happen if you come out of the text messages and go back to the home screen after you reply to someone. It's a really annoying bug
Me too...
I thought it was the result of all the hacking, tweaking and breaking I've been doing on this flash since I've been using it as a "scratch pad" but the problem you are all describing sounds identical.
I will also second the Home screen suggestion. Hit 'End' after you are done messing with the phone to go back to the Home screen. There is definitely a notification bug related to not alarming/vibrating when not on Home screen.
Though I have observed this issue, this does not completely explain my problems. Sometimes I don't actually even receive the SMS or MMS until the next day or after rebooting my phone! Most of the time it's fine though. I'm going to do a clean flash and see if that gets rid of that issue.
Same Here
I have run across the same problem with a number of the cooked ROMs. I never really noticed the problem with the stock ROM though. In my experience some of the cooked ROMs are having a problem handling the text messaging. I have over 3000 text msgs in my backup and as soon as I try to view an older text, the systems tend to lag and freeze up to the point that I need to soft-reset. Im using Athine right now and so far it has handled the text msging just fine without freeze or lag, but it also seems to have the same notification delay bug that the other ROMs have.

Yeah I'm familiar with that bug. But I go back to the home screen 99% of the time then shut the screen. I'll get a message and the LED will start blinking, but only when I turn the screen back on will it ring and vibrate.
Same problem here with the cell pro rom

I have the problem with almost all of the ROM. Does anyone know if it could be a result of not using the right radio?
I could be wrong.. but I don't think it has anything to do with the radio. There doesn't seem to be any problem is receiving the message from the carrier, it's more-so the OS not notifying. This has only happened to me since trying the new WM 6.5.5 builds with Sense 2.5. Previous to these builds I have never had any issues, and only used EnergyROM with a COM2 build, and Sense 2.1

Im not sure about all the technical stuff your talking about...I just know that on almost every ROM I flash, when the phone goes to sleep, they seem to not do anything. Its only when I wake it up do I receive text messages, notifications and the weather doesnt update on its own in the prescribed time its supposed to according to the settings I have selected.
The radio version may affect the quality of your reception. So if you have no reception then that will obviously delay texts getting through, and stop you being able to get to the weather servers. But I can't see why it should have anything to do with delayed notification of texts that are already on your phone.
I realise this might not help you much, but on my EnergyROM (see my signature for full details), my phone gets texts fine when it's asleep.
The weather isn't designed to get automatically updated when your phone is asleep though. There was a recent thread on how to change the registry to make it do so, if you haven't done that then your weather stuff may well be acting correctly.

Awesome...thank you so much for the information and help
This is the thread about getting weather to update automatically - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585373
WHY DONT YOU JUST USE A ENERGYROM????? I dont have any issues with those roms and i just updated to the .88 radio. no issues as of yet.

is there a better way to fix sms?

About the nexus randomly refusing to send texts when I have full bars and 3g, is there a way I can make my superphone send text messages again without a reboot? And is there something done by the user that causes it or is it just another screw up? I ran a search :
http://www.google.com/m?hl=en&gl=us...droid-browser-key&q=nexus+one+texts+wont+send
but all of the posts I found included failed calls but I'm pretty sure I can still make calls so I don't know if my issue is different. Thanks
P.S. is this considered a bug in that we can expect a fix from Google? And is there an organized system open to the public not just of all the bugs but of all the bugs we can expect Google to address? I think I've seen it before but I can't remember how to find it. I ran a search but this is as close as I got.

Thanks
I don't have an answer as I have this issue randomly also.
I didn't have it for a few weeks and this week suddenly it happens everyday. Besides rebooting, nothing I do fixes it.
One weird thing is I can still send text messages through Google Voice, but sms and "sometimes" phone calls don't work. It's sooooooo frustrating!!
i have not ever experienced this issue, but i read about it alot. is it because you guys are using the stock messaging app, and i have been using handcent since day 1?
possibly. ive used the native messaging app almost exclusively, but chomp had the same issue for me.
Lately, after a few failed attempts I can get the message to send without a reboot maybe 25% of the time, on the other hand the problem seems to be becoming more frequent for me...wish i knew more about this stuff.

[Q] Recieving duplicate sms

Yesterday i installed stock JVR rooted with latest cf-root then installed speedmod kernel. Whilst in the process of reinstalling my apps and settings i recieved 4 sms messages from two different people. I deleted these messages as soon as i had read them as i always do but since then, these messages have been repeating themselves randomly at varying intervals. I have received other sms messages since then which are not duplicated but the original 4 continue to be duplicated.
I have googled the problem and searched this forum and have found people with similar problems but no solution other than rogue apps causing the duplication.
Strangely i have had the same phone configuration installed a few days ago and i didn't have this problem.
Anybody any ideas about this please as it is driving me crazy. The obvious is to perform another clean install of something else but i am reluctant to go ahead and do this if i am still going to have this problem!
do you have multiple sms apps? is it as simple as turning the notifications off of the sms app/s you are not using?
Only thing I can think of, also maybe a modem issue, flash a modem correct to your location (this is just a shot in the dark)

[Q] Solution to Temasek's CM7 Kang problems

Hi, I'm only posting here since I can't search and reply to temasek's thread due to me being a noob haha Anyway, thanks to Temasek for his work and I really like it a lot, but I have 2 major issues that I've experienced so far.
1) I am unable to delete my 10k+ messages in my phone. Everytime I try, the application hangs and I have to force close it, be it stock or go sms.
2) Computers are unable to read my phone as a USB mass storage. Since it is a mass storage, I do need need to install any drivers right? (ie. flash drives)
Hello!
1. ) No idea why you can't delete your SMS - sorry - I got like 10+ SMS (meaning something between 10-20) in my folders. I usually use Email or WhatsAPP since SMS is expensive with my mobile plan...
2.) What OS are you using on the PC side? If it is some WIndows - Did you install the newest drivers for the phone? - they should be available on XDA or from LG directly.
10K plus is an enormous amount of messages. If you want to delete them, it will take time and the phone is going to stop responding for a while.
Try to delete /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db*
I have no idea if that screws things up, so do a nandroid backup first
Erm ok maybe I have to clarify further. The 2 above problems only surfaced when I switched over to CM7. When I was on stock firmware, I had absolutely no problem with the above 2.
I know it takes time to delete but when I pressed 'delete', the app freezes and force closes. Not even 1 had been deleted! (again I tried with stock and had absolutely no problem, it started right away showing me the status of the process).
2) You need to install the drivers in order to access the SD card(s).

alarm notification issues
Hi I'm writing here because I have less than 10 post + it is a problem I'm facing with the last temasek's KANG #80.
When I call someone or when someone calls me, for each active clock alarm appears a notification that informs me : "Alarm silenced after xxx minutes". xxx is the time between the last alarm activation and the call that "fired" the notification.
It is not a serious problem but it's quite annoying.
Before #80 flash I've never faced this problem.
Any thought ?
