So I got Vanilla MMS to work fine.. but now... - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

when I get a text, I get double texts. One on the stock Messaging app, the other on the Vanilla.
I have
1. Gone to Settings> Apps and disabled all the defaults for both the stock and Vanilla messaging apps.
2. Gone to the stock app's settings and disabled notifications and "auto-retrieve" or whatever it's called. Still, I don't get double notifications now, but I do see double posts inside the Vanilla MMS conversation thread.
Is there anyone running this that has managed to make it stop?

Despite restarting a few times, still nothing. Is there not anyone using this? It was a big deal when it wouldn't install as an .apk at first, I'd like to think some people finally got it to work.

if you dont have root then you cant get access to the /system/app folder so you cant remove the other mms app. thats whats causing the "bug"

[Q] Stock (htc) Messenger Not Splitting SMS

Hi, I am a somewhat new user here starting originally with xtrsense 4.6.5. I am now using v 5.0.1 but I believe all the xtrsense roms use the original sense message app from stock 2.1.
My issue is that the messenger doesn't seem to split the messages up before sending them. From what I have read this isn't a problem for verizon users but I am not on verizon. I have set up my apn, prl, and everything else manually to get the phone to work, but this is the one last bug that I haven't been able to solve.
I know that I could use go sms or handcent, but I kinda like just sticking with htc's messenger. Does anyone know which files I could edit to help change this. I just downloaded the android sdk today so that I could poke around from the computer instead of just on the phone itself with a file manager. Also out of curiosity, where is the mms max message size stored? I think the default 1.2Mb is working fine but I want to play with some of the mms settings to see if I can get a better quality receiving/sending. I think it's just that my user agent isn’t really understood on this carrier, so I should change it to an android phone that they do have.

[Q] Notifications Problem

I have a strange problem - I have LauncherPro (with customized dock icons), BobClockD3, and MinimalistText, running at DAS Bamf Remix 1.6.3. I get notification sounds but then when I go to open my phone, they do not show up in the top notification bar and I have to go to messages/Facebook/or whatever to see that I got a new message. I am not sure if this is due to LauncherPro because I noticed it after I installed it, but I tried checking off the "Missed call count/Unread SMS count/Unread Gmail count" under Preferences -> Dock Settings, but since I have customized dock icons, I am not sure if it will work or not... I even tried unchecking them, but I still do not get any notifications on the top of the my phone, which is strange. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Any help would be appreciated!
Other phone information that may prove useful:
Android Version: 2.2.1
Baseband Version: 1.16.00.0402w_1
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.21.bamf_4.4.7-g21c0620-dirty (by a adrynalyne #1)
Build Number: 1.13.605.7_Das_BAMF_Remix_1.6.3
Software Number: 1.13.605.7
Nevermind, after a reboot and re-installation of LauncherPro, everything seems to work fine. Strange that it happened... Oh well. Thanks anyway!
Actually, now I have a slightly different problem but it still relates to notifications (so I did not bother making a new thread). On LauncherPro, I checked off all the notifications in Preferences -> Dock Settings -> Dock Notifications. The Gmail and the Phone ones work - when I have a new mail or missed call, a little red bubble appears next to my custom icons in the dock that tells me so. However, for SMS, it does not appear. I believe I remember it appearing one when I first used it, but it has not appeared since. Any idea on what I should do?
Also, is there an app or a way to make it so when I get a text, the screen on my phone lights up? Thanks! Any help is appreciated! (Sorry for this noobish questions)
Bump (still cannot find any solution).

i have the same problem with the same setup. haven't found an answer yet either.
I mean, it's such a small problem and it really is not a big deal, but since I have noticed it, I have been trying to find a solution and since I cannot find any, it is just eating at me now, haha. It's like a personal mission to try to fix this problem.
same here. do let me know if you found a solution.
i'm thinking ill uninstall launcher and see if that might be the problem.
thanks
You mean uninstall and then reinstall or just uninstall completely?

dont know what is the cause. i unistalled launcher pro. still with no positive effect.
This is strange... I am going to continue looking. Do you use the default messaging that comes with the phone or do you have an alternative app for SMS messaging (like Handcent or something like that?). I am thinking maybe a different messaging app might work with Launcher Pro, but again, I would have to experiment and test it out... Although I do like the stock messaging system, I would want to try to keep that.
Bump - does anyone have any advice on the problem?
Go sms pro will light up the screen when you get a text. It works well for me. The other problems I am not sure about. I have the same ROM with launcher pro and no problems

Go SMS Pro? And you are able to see notifications on the bottom of Launcher Pro when you receive a SMS? I was looking around for a new messenger system, but I saw Handcent, Go SMS Pro, and a few others and I was not sure which people think is the best. I guess it is personal preference and I will give some a try... Thanks! Does anyone have any opinions on Handcent vs. Go SMS Pro vs. others?
I am going to try Go SMS Pro after I try to update my radio/try on a new kernel in the next few days, and I will let people know if that works or not.
EDIT:
I installed Go SMS Pro, relocated that shortcut on my dock, and after a few items and changing the icon around and putting the SMS Notification off then on again a few times, it finally worked. I feel maybe the HTC Messenger gives the LauncherPro dock problems at giving them notifications when messages come in? I have no idea. I like Go SMS Pro though, so anyone reading this, I recommend it. Thanks to everyone who helped!

[Q] Why do texts stop sending?

For the life of me I cannot figure out why this is happening. I have rerooted and re-odin'd froyo countless times and always have the same problem. After a while my texts stop sending, I will go to send a text and it shows a timestamp and says 'sent' then I'll exit messaging and won't receive a response from whoever I'm texting. I open up messaging again and I see the timestamp change to whatever the current time is and says sent, I've noticed if I put the phone down and watch that the sent timestamp changes with the time. The messages never send though, as no one receives them and also it is only with text messages because MMS works fine. Example: I'll send a text at 2:05 pm, I'll look at my phone again in 10 minutes and the text will say 'sent 2:15 pm'. This only happens after a certain amount of time has passed from a new flash, a day, a few days, even have gone a week or so before it starts happening. A data complete data/cache wipe will fix it temporarily, then I have to wipe and start over... Maybe I've been doing something wrong or have been flashing corrupted files?
I've never run into this, but since you say mms works I'd try an alternate mms.apk or try an alternate app such as handcent.
if you want to remain using a stock SMS app look at my previous posts for an alternate mms.apk and instructions on how to replace it over your existing mms.apk from your system/app directory.
if you decide to try handcent and it works whereas your stock SMS app fails, then signs point to the mms.apk.
I'll give it a try, although it seems no matter what sms app I use or no matter what rom I'm using the sms function breaks after a certain amount of time forcing me to do a complete wipe and reinstall/reflash.
so then you are saying you have tried other SMS apps like handcent?
Yes and always the sms breaks after some time :/ idk why but the only fix I have found is a clean wipe.
tapatalked from my KangBanged Fascinate
I want to revive this thread, because the EXACT same thing is happening to me!
Currently running EH03 radio, KGB_FA16 kernel, and Super Clean 3 Milestone 2 on my Fascinate.
The Problem seems to have started on March 28th, and at the time I was still running SC3 Milestone 1. It took me until yesterday to realize that none of my text messages were received by anyone I sent them to since March 28th. Same symptoms; messages appeared to have been sent, time stamp that changes, etc.
Last night I tried a few things to fix the issue:
- Disabled Voodoo and System Lagfixes via CWM
- Wiped Davlik Cache
- Flashed SuperClean 3 Milestone 2
- Updated roaming capability (*228, option 2)
- Just installed GoSMS
In GoSMS, all of the outgoing messages since March 28th have flashing green arrows next to them... What does that mean?
If someone could point me towards the android native mms.apk, I can try re-installing it.
I am running out of ideas... I am going to Odin the EC09 radio tonight and see if that fixes it. Otherwise, the only other option I can think of is to do a full wipe and start over from scratch...
Any thoughts??
Bump.... Thoughts anyone? Beuler?
Should I just bag my whole current config and just try a different ROM!?
Looking into CM7...

[Q] SBFing and reSBFing results in bootloop: SOLUTION

So I was running eclipse .5, but wanted blur messaging back, and hadn't made a recovery for stock.. sorry for that, i know, i'm a dumbass.. but i thought it should be pretty easy.. more about that later. When i tried using SBF to get back to stock, i only get bootloops with the stock boot animation. re sbf. Same Thing. Boot into android recovery, do a factory reset. SUCCESS!! Thought this was going to be an SOS thread, but i guess not.
So now, onto getting stock blur messaging back onto my x2. When blur Sms was removed, it broke the bluetooth message access protocol. My lincoln sync, and other ford syncs, will use this protocol to notify the driver of text messages, and use sync's text to speech to read the message to you. With eclipse running, i can tell the car to download the messages and it will, successfully. With stock running i will actually get a notification from the car. etc. I was going to try sticking the stock messaging service in system/app/ and remove mms.apk
I'm sure there is something else i have to do as well, like make this initialize with everything else on boot. I think the problem is that Blur sms passed an event to the bluetooth framework, making it send the notification to the car, and vanilla sms does not do this. So assuming nitro didn't alter bluetooth, all i need back is blur sms. someone who is smarter than i, Am I right So far?

[Q] Installed CM10. Email crashes

I upgraded my NT from CM7 to CM10 & overall, I'm very happy with it. My only problem at the moment is that my email app crashes when I open it. I can get yahoo & gmail, but when I open the stock app it crashes right away. I figure that if I uninstall/re-install it might fix it, but I have no idea of exactly to un-install & where to get it to re-install it.
Right after I installed CM10, Talk kept crashing but that has stopped. Not sure if that points to anything, but figured it should be mentioned.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Answering my own question in case it happens to someone else. It looks like I got it working. I deleted all the data, not just the cache. That meant I had to set the account up again, but it appears to have worked. Mail no longer crashes. Must have been something in the settings when it tried to check mail.
