Im not sure why its doing this, but im on BAMF2.0 Remix, and i randomly just stop getting text messages. i have to pull the battery to receive them again, im in a 3g area with good signal.. is anyone else having this problem or is there a fix for it other than pulling battery?
if not i dont believe i had this issue with cm7.. dont exactly want to go back being i like BAMF..
Thanks!
For the first time since I had this phone I am having the same problem. Did you find a fix? What kernel were you using?
I pulled my battery and I'm still not getting SMS. $&@!

For most of last night from 9pm to about 2am I could not receive a text message no matter which phone sent me a text. Of course, I got several messages at 2am (that had been sent earlier that night) waking me up from sleep. I was able to send SMS but not receive. I did everything - battery pull, uninstall GoSMS and use stock messaging app (clearing the cache), cleared davlik cache and rom cache, lol... I tried everything.
Apparently this has happened to quite a few other people. I guess it just goes away after time? I am also guessing since none of my efforts fixed the problem that it is related to the Verizon network? Google: Thunderbolt not receiving texts.
None of the SMS I sent myself from my prepaid phone, from family members, friend, gf, or google voice made it to my phone last night.
I find it really upsetting that I pay $90+/month for this device and I can't even get SMS. Sure this is the only time that I know this happened, but .... lol. If could have happened before without me knowing it.
Low voltage kernel settings wouldn't cause this, would it?
Shesh.

For the life of me I can't figure this out. I installed Handscent on my Thunderbolt and now it is sending the same text 2 - 3 times. I've tried uninstalling, clearing data, clearing cache and nothing works. I disabled every notification on the standard messaging app but it just keeps doing it.
Anyone have any ideas?
No ideas, but you're not alone...
I just want to bump this and say that it is happening with GoSMS and the stock messaging app as well. I wonder if it's the network.
I had to do clear data in messaging app in Manage Applications menu. Just make sure there are no messages you want to keep because you will lose them.
Had the same issue. I called Verizon to report it. I rebooted and have not had any issues. Well none that I know of. Not sure if it was the network or my phone.
Yeah nothing is working. Using stock app and cleared data, still doing it. I'm beginning to think it has to do with the DasBAMF Rom because it didn't happen until I started using the rom.
Give it a day... its more than likely the network and not the ROM... ive used many different ROMs on my D1 and this problem would come and go from time to time... often without even changing ROMs.... give it 24 hours, if it doesnt stop, try a new ROM then, dont give up on it so fast.
This was happening to me about two weeks ago. It worked itself out.
Have you guys tried freezing the old msging app?
it's happening on my stock TB...pretty sure it's just the network considering my blackberry used to do this as well.
Anyone else have this problem? I don't get calls from certain people. Sometimes I don't get sms that they send. My gf can't get a hold of me by calling and sometimes our sms don't arrive at the other end. We're both on verizon, she has a feature phone. I'm using a gingerbread rom now, but this problem happened with someone else on a different rom I was using months ago. That time too the other person was on verizon with a feature phone. I'm going to wipe and install Ivan's eris official to troubleshoot, the next step is to try and get verizon involved.
Sounds like the issues I had when my apn was "lost". Search for the "apn fix", it's in a ton of threads since most cm roms have had the issue.
Wrong forum BTW

could be that your phone is stuck in low memory state, try deleting all the apps you don't use, and boot into recovery and wiping dalvic cashe, reboot, might want to look into cashe2cashe

This happened between me and my wife, My daughter had placed me in my wifes blacklist, you might want to check just in case.
thanks for all the replies!
ianoob- i will try this, thanks for the info! i found .mak's apn fix here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684856
rigbyrobot- hmm... i keep my installs pretty lean, putting as many apps on the sd as possible.
Sparticusx- i considered that, but it does not explain the intermittent missing sms.
update: flashed ivan's eris official, gf's call went right through. next i flashed Ginn Tazz followed by gapps and .mak's apn fix and all seems well. thanks again!

If you think about the number of phones that are out there and people only generally post when there's an issue, I wouldn't worry about exchanging it. I've had two phones with no issues.

today I backed up my iphone SMSs and loaded them with sms backup and restore... everything went fine, but then my phone reset and there is a circle with a line through it where the data connection icon should be and says there is no sim installed.... I also cant dial out, but I received a call on the way home from work.
trying to open message app on the phone gives me a time out message and asks me to kill or wait. then the phone just freezes. I'm looking everywhere for a solution... first time android user so this is driving me a little bit nutty.
on my iphone I would just restore firmware... I guess thats what I should try here?

Have you done any type of changes to the phone like rooting, etc.? Anything you can think of that might have caused it or changed something right before it happened?
No, I haven't rooted or anything. All I did was download a few basic apps and then try to transfer my data to the new phone. I ordered a jig and don't want to do anything until it arrives.
I have solved the data issue, somehow the sim came slightly out of place. Once I reseated everything was good. is the sim slot that finicky?
i also did a factory reset and started from scratch and worked out the issue with the text messages. I appreciated your willingness to help a noob, thank you.
My girlfriend's Droid X2 will randomly stop receiving calls or texts until it is restarted. At that point it will work fine for a period of time, sometimes hours, sometimes for the whole day, then it will need to be rebooted again. After which, it then receives all the missed texts at once.
Any ideas? I would like to try something that doesn't involve flashing a new rom or rooting. She has tried a factory reset a few times to no avail.
Much appreciated.

I had this happen a couple times on stock, I just attributed it to the radio going haywire. I never did figure out a fix other than reboot.

If the phone is not rooted
dial *228 and re program the phone, this has helped me a bunch in the past. Return phone if it persists
If the phone is rooted/ROM...etc
If it still persists, then sbf back to stock, wipe data and cache in stock recovery and return it.

Ever since I got my first Android device (Galaxy Nexus) I had the problem that Gmail and Google Talk just often won't notify me about new messages. It works fine sometimes but often there is a delay between a few seconds and several hours until it finally notifies me (if at all that is).
It's basically freaking useless. I just can't rely on it so I end up checking for messages and mail manually every few minutes.
Things that don't affect the problem:
Device and Android Version. Plenty of people reported this problem and it's just not limited to one device or version.
If the screen is turned off or not. It even stops working while Talk is open (not in the background).
How the phone connects to the internet. At home it's using the same connection as my PC, while it just won't notify me of an new e-mail the Talk client on the PC manages it without problems.
ROM/Kernel don't seem matter either. Also did plenty of factory resets.
All I can find are old and/or unanswered threads.

I'd have ditched Android by now if there would be a good alternative. But it's either Android, iOS or Windows Phone...
Sign out of google talk and gmail.do a battery pull, then a factory reset, then try again.

my advice. backup what you need(ie. text messages) and just clear data, revert to stock image

I don't really get how this could help. Don't feel like doing yet another reset unless it could really have an effect.

ROM and Kernel don't seem to matter. That includes for example stock, Cyanogen and franco kernel.
Did a factory reset like 100 times before, just this time logged out first. Didn't help, how unexpected.
Another option, contact sprint, have them do a. Profile refresh. Also update ur prl twice. Now that I think about, it could be a slight network issue in connection with ur device (hard to explain)

I'm in Europe. No sprint here.
I'll replace my Nexus with an S III today. Guess I'm about to find out if it's affected too.
Will probably be hard to do any further tests with the Nexus because my SIM is going to have a little meeting with a scissor.
Didn't get too many messages yet but some of them were definitely several minutes late. Guess the S III is affected too. Just great.
Am I the only person with this problem?
Still happening and renders the phone mostly useless.
At least some ideas on how to pinpoint the problem?
