Hi, this is on behalf of a friend (who isn't quite a tech person), but her phone keeps resending old texts everytime she reboots her phone...I'm not sure why this happens. Is there anything I can do to prevent this? This is stock everything.
Thanks!

Sorry if this has already been brought up but I've had a quick look around but couldn't find anything, I would keep looking but it's costing me money!
Every time I send a text, receive a text or receive a call, my phone sends a message (it was a message I sent to my gf a few days ago) no matter who texts or calls me, or who I text that same message gets sent. It usually shows up in my Sent Messages folder. I tried deleting all my messages but it's still happening! I know a soft-reset will fix it but I'm reluctant to do that just yet. Is this a common problem? Is it fixable?
A soft reset will not do anything to your data so there is nothing wrong with trying that, although I doubt it will fix your problem.
A hard Reset will wipe out your data and return the device to original ROM condition (out of the box when new) - this will get rid of your problem, unless there is a hardware fault - worth a try. - Mike
Ah yeah, sorry I meant a hard reset, I've already tried a soft-reset. I guess this isn't a common problem then? I'll give it another day and see if anyone's got any ideas. Otherwise I guess it's a hard reset for me!
I get this about once a day now, I will receive an email and the phone will never stop vibrating until I do a soft reset. Anyone else getting this? Everything is stock Verizon.
yea i have the bell tp and sometimes when i get a new text msg the phone will vibrate forever until i manually stop it...
as good as this phone is... it does have its asshole moments. lol
I usually find solutions to my own problems while lurking, but this one is stumping me.
Starting last night at some point I stopped being able to receive both calls and texts. I was quite confused because I was in the middle of a text conversation with someone and they just stopped responding.
Data still works and I can make calls and send texts, but when I send myself a text from another phone nothing happens and calls just go to voicemail.
The phone was on the Eugene 2E JK2 Froyo ROM. I re-flashed it, then flashed it back to stock and nothing helps. When data is off it still doesn't work.
Any ideas? I tried searching but couldn't find anything. My GoogleFu may be lacking
Weird, have you contacted t-mobile support? Many years ago on ATT, with an old school flip phone, I had a similar problem. One night, my phone just suddenly stopped being able to receive or make calls. It could only text. The only solution was to get a replacement--it was not software related.
I've got a new phone on the way because I've been experiencing a similar thing, off and on for the last few days. I called T-mo and went through all the troubleshooting but they can't find any reason for the phone to be behaving this way...gonna send me a new one as warranty replacement.
Guys, perplexing problem.
I am running a rooted TB with SoaB, SSLauncher, and GoSMS.
My wife is running a stock iPhone 4S.
There are times when she sends me texts that I never recieve, (really, not being a inattentative guy). For example, today. She sends me texts during the day, I get them. then all of a sudden I don't.
I check settings, sms is set to automatically recieve, my GoSMS is set to not delete old messages, everything seems fine. She is getting, but I am not recieving.
so I send me a text from my phone, I get it. I send a text from my work phone, I get it. But not from her. We will talk on the phone and I ask her to send one, and I will manage to get a text from her. But 30 minutes later, nothing. I will play with my phone, check setting, delete messages, ask her to send a text, I get one.
There is no rhyme or reason to this condition. I checked and she isn't blacklisted or anything. I have done reboots, doesn't fix. It really is truly sproadic and unpredictable.
She swears its my phone, since her sister who has an android gets all of her messages. I will post the question as well over at the Go site, and Bamf as well, but not sure it its those or not.
Last week I woke to find my phone had set itself into the bootlauncher or whatever that white screen is where you can reboot, load a recovery, load a rom, or whatever. I choose to reboot and found it odd that that happened. Do you think there is something with that screen that messed up something?
Sorry for the long post, want to get this fixed.
A week ago my phone started acting weird by not being able to unlock the screen, I would have to power off and start up again. Then I could not receive texts and called att who said he would reregister my phone and then I would get all my texts. That worked but my phone is still getting locked up sometimes when I try to make a call it will turn black and do nothing. And the screen will not unlock other times. I am have to shut it down and reboot almost every day. Any Ideas how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Have you installed/flashed anything lately?
Perhaps make a complete backup of your phone logs and SMS, then do a wipe/factory reset. Then install your apps from the market, and restore SMS and call logs.
