Anyone getting random texts for a damn Iphone 5? Annoying it's spam and gets sent all hours of the day. Started today at 5pm and just got another at 12.45 am.
From a number 5712166142
i don't know how the hell my number is getting spammed I don't run 3rd party apps that have permissions for funky ass things....
I got a similar spam text. You can block it or report that number to sprint as spam using 9999.

So I was talking with my buddy about spamming over sms. Long story short I know in the past I have bombed him with like 100 messages in a few minutes. He said you can't anymore. I said I can and tried to show him. Now he will only receive like 4 and the rest go poof. Did sprint limit this somehow?

I highly doubt it.. my girlfriends phone will, for whatever random reason while getting a signal off our airrave (what a P.O.S. that is.) spam anyone she last txt like 40 times. no rhyme or reason. only her phone does it, and it's not even the phone because we had that replaced as well.. still does it. Mine has never done it.
Try jds SMS bomber. You have to Google for the apk.

Lately this week I am getting a lot of spam email. Emails that say I am a winner, or money has been deposited in my account. I never click on them. Just delete them. But is ths an app causing this? I installed air push detector. Music paradise was pushing some stuff out. I uninstalled it. But still getting these emails. What do I do? Thanks for the help

Am I missing something or.... How is there no good junk mail filter apps? Email is one of the most used things on smartphones, you'd think the play store would be flooded with these apps.

I've got several GMail accounts that I've never used for anything except self-storage, and I get 30-40 spam e-mails in those every day. Google used to have the best spam filter I'd ever seen...now it's the worst. :/ As soon as my Alma mater switched to Google Apps for Education, my incoming spam on that account quadrupled.
Gmail still is the best at filtering spam. You are not seeing 95% of what it filters automatically.
For the ones that get through take 5 minutes to train it. Mark the ones that are spam spam and it will quickly learn to mark those automatically.
Also; watch what you are installing and downloading. Most spam is brought on by installing questionable apps or clicking questionable websites.
I am getting them too. About 1 or 2 a day. Some days I get none. They are coming from hijacked email accounts meaning gmail thinks it's actually coming from an authentic live person trying to send a real email to you and therefore is getting around the spam filter.
I have an app for my fire department that sends a text message to ~30 people when we get a call. Since I got my Evo, not everyone has been getting the texts. I haven't changed application since the OG evo so the only thing I can think of is that the messages are being limited to the first 15 people. I don't know how that would be since I am using my own app and not the stock messaging app.
Would anyone be able to confirm that the messages are getting limited? If so, how to I either raise or eliminate the limit?

Bump. Need to get this working :/

What app are you using?

It's my own app that I created. Basically what it does is it pulls the recipients from an array of numbers and sends a pre-defined text at a push of a button. I can upload most of my source if I need to.
It started happening when I got my Evo LTE.
I made a temporary fix by breaking up the contacts into different lists. Would like to get this limit lifted though.
Have you tried using the groups built into the app?
Our department still uses AlphaText Pagers
I thought it was 40 recipients? I got a pop up when they changed my number after I ported so I decided to text all of my friends group. Well you apparently have to do it in 40 number increments.

Ew. My department has minitors. We don't have enough to give to everyone. That's why I made this app.

I am not using the stock messaging app. I built my own for a 'push a button and drop my phone' since I need to concentrate on getting to the station and not fiddling with my phone.

Just sent out a test and only the 1st 13 people are getting them again. I don't know what is causing this -.-
So my DNA came in last night and traded in my i*hone for it. Good decision. Any ways I can not get texts from iPhone users because apple still thinks I have an iPhone and use imessages.. I don't knowing anyone else had this problem but I would like so help with this predicament .

I believe you need to go through iTunes to delink your phone number from iMessages. I may be wrong but I remember reading something in another thread about that. When you set up your iMessage, what did you do? I was under the impression that you had to do something with iTunes or there was a sync setting, something along those lines.
I just checked a box on the iPhone. Strange things were happening all my texts were being sent to a family member with an iPhone, I turned it off on their phone and now I am recieving texts.. I will probably call apple and see if they can take my number off the server or something

Got this phone back in June. I love. Never had the need to root it. However my SMS takes long to load. Group text messaging is so bad it shuts down the stock messaging app.. The stock text messaging function is virtually useless at times. I do not use any other messaging apps to make it clear.
Any Help?
How many messages do you have?

Yes!! You're like my wife. She never deltes texts. If I don't text the same person back after a while I delete the thread. No need to keep it alive.

its usually group texts that im in. The group texts accumulate to 9-10 thousand messages a month. I just recently cleaned out 7 group texts that date back as far as july. Yes I have had running conversations for that long LOL. Might as well open a forum for my group of friends smh.
