Hello Note 5 6.0 users. Please help me with this issue. - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am having this issue on my messages app on my note 5 where if someone texts me it shows up as me and the other person as a contact. Two contact heads show up on messages. Maybe the photo will be better to explain then me typing it lol. Let me know if this occurs on your guys cell phones. If it doesn't I will gladly get a exchange from T-Mobile (Assurion).
If anyone is having this issue to or knows the name or how to disable it please let me know. It is driving me insane.

It's because you have the same number saved twice in your phone with different names...

Thanks.

[Q] Is there an app?????

Is there an app that i could use to send texts but using my wifi connection any help would be appreciated.
Skype is a good one, you have to have wifi. But I think theres a fee if your talking to non skpye users.
Google Voice
thanks for your quick replies, im going to try them out now as my service was just cut off but i still needed to communicate with people.

Google+ invites here

Well I managed to get over 120 people in, so that was a success. Google have now taken my invite button away, so no more invites, I'm afraid.
Sorry to shout, but I've started to get pm's now asking for invites.
Okay, I've edited the 1st post cos I realised it will just disappear if there's no posts on it and I want to invite as many people as possible. Google+ is looking VERY good at the moment and the more people we can get in the better!
Thanks that was quick

You're welcome mate
Not many people taking up the offer, so it's easy to keep track of, and everyone seems to be getting in straight away as well. Win!
Thanks for the quick invite, but I just get a button that says "Learn more about Google+" and when clicked takes you to screen that tells you it is in limited Beta and offers to keep you posted. So are invites closed already or am I missing something?
thanks, just input my email address and was invited. But how to use g+?

My invitation had a link that said something like "View or comment on post »" and I used that to sign up.
If that's not working then just keep the email and try every now and then, but they were definitely accepting invites very recently.

I'm sure I don't need to tell you to google for info on how to use google+
There's not much to it, once you get going.
Just applied Thanks in advance!
[edit]
Got the invite, thank you very much! But:
Google+ is in limited Field Trial
At the moment, we're testing with a small number of people, but it won't be long before the Google+ project is ready for everyone. Leave us your email address and we'll make sure that you're the first to know when we're ready to invite more people.

Exactly! Only thing I can click on is "Keep me posted"

I guess they must have their own criteria as to who gets in then, unless you just keep trying. Most of the people I invite are getting in straight away.
If I could help, I would.

I saw somewhere that there's a workaround for Google+ invites not working; I can't confirm this or anything, obviously... anyway, I think the article said that if you share something with a friend (i.e. you put in their e-mail address to share it), then it'll send out an e-mail to the thing you shared (like a post on your "wall" or whatever it's called), and then you can sign up. Just speculation, dunno if it works or not ^^
And yeah, I used my gmail account.

That's a very good point. Most of the people that are posting their email addresses to the spreadsheet are using gmail or googlemail addresses. There's only a few that haven't so maybe that's a deciding factor. I suppose it would make some sense, while it's still in beta.
Edit: Just saw Breece's post above. This obviously isn't the case.

Clicking ph no in email to dial

Hey gang, not sure if this is ROM issue or general Shamu issue. Maybe someone can shed some light. When I try to click on a phone number in an email it doesn't make the call; Where most other devices have. If I hold it for a couple seconds I can copy, etc. But that's not what I need!!
TIA!!

Blame apple and their lawyers for excessive litigation. Sometimes its easier to just say 'eff-it' than to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars and years to fight them over something small.

mine works just fine. i click on the number and it takes me to the dialer with the number already input. might be a ROM issue at this point since i'm stock rooted.

Ah Yes, gmail does if you use the mobile international dialling version (UK for example starts +44). In Gnmail it is underlined and clearly a link. In Inbox, it is not underlined but does work.

what is this?

I have been using the p30pro for almost a month so far I have received this kind of message for three times. Do anyone know what is this about??

224444 is being used to send text message notifications by Google to their list of different users who have opted-in to their SMS notification program. Many websites, mobile apps, and other businesses use their short codes to notify their users of current deals being offered, promotions, coupons, when tables are ready at their restaurants, password changes, and other time sensitive information related to their individual accounts. This is to keep their users informed with up to date information, give their subscribers coupons and deals, and also to verify that the user attempting to make changes to their account is the verified account owner.
Maybe at some point, you registered your phone number to one of Google services (maps, youtube, etc) and they want to keep you informed.
On the other hand, if you didn't do any of this, it may be possible that you accepted some bad cookies or notifications from surfing the internet. In that case, you can uninstall and reinstall your browser. Hope that this could give you an answer to your question ?. If not, you may have to do some researches of your own Google account security settings.

it's normal. Just makes sure you give the permission to send messages and you agree there might be fees related to it.

As @ZayaanAhyaan stated in his post, i don't think you got hacked, it's just an option to get info and earn some fees on your account.

Did you click the “ remember my choice “ check box before clicking cancel? If so you should never see the message again
