Hi all,
My question relates to sending texts over 160 characters. It works sometimes, and sometimes it doesn't.
I'm on the latest teamhacksung 6.1 version of ICS with default kernel. My modem is ED05.
Sometimes I'll send texts that would be 2, 3, or 4 pages and it gets through just fine. Other times, I'll send a 2 page text to the same recipient and it bounces back with a red triangle (standard messaging app).
Does anyone have this experience, and any suggestions to fix it?

I use ec09 modem and haven't had this problem and I send long texts all the time. Try eh03 or ec09 modem and it should help. I'm not going to promise that it'll fix, but its worth a shot.

You can try a different radio, but a workaround that works 100% of the time is going into the messaging app > settings then check "SMS split". It'll automatically split your long texts into multiple messages, and while I'd like it if longer texts just worked every time, this is at least a decent workaround.
Thanks. I appreciate the reply. I know SMS split works, but I'm just curious if my issue occurs for everyone else =)
I've never had problems with the eh03 radio so if you would like to give it a go, here is the eh03 odin file

I was curious about this too, since I wasn't sure if it was just me but it seems to be a pretty widespread issue.
Different radios do nothing for me as far as this issue goes.

I'm receiving double text messages now on a lot of my text messages I receive. It doesn't seem to matter who the text message is from. It's happened after I upgraded the Radio, DCD ROM, and Bootloader to the latest versions below. I don't know if that's what caused it or if there is something wrong with the Verizon Service and I should call Verizon. Can anybody help me with this? Thank you!

It is definitely on their end...happens on Sprint to randomly....wont do a lot to call though as they don't have a clue as to why it happens,,,,,you will get the run around...."everything is fine on our end",,,lol
I know i have had this happen to me on alltel a couple times normally give it a couple days and the issue resolves itself no real point in calling CS they will just walk you through a bunch of stuff that have nothing to do with the issue
Are you using HTC home, by any chance? I've had this issue quite a few times before. I haven't had any dupe text messages after I uninstalled HTC Home - Just a thought.
No, but I'm using HTC Homeplug 1.12.0.0, but it was installed via the Kitchen, so I don't think it can be uninstalled. I guess I'll wait a week or so and if it keeps happening I'll contact Verizon if it does. Thanks.

It's still happening but not as often as it was doing it. I complained to them a while ago about getting email notifications as a SMS everytime I got a new hotmail email message. I wonder if they did something while they were working on this complaint. The SMS was from OZMail wish is a Verizon applicaton for email that I used, but stopped using. Well, I guess I will call them and see what they say.
Anytime I flash a custom rom other than CM7, my incoming MMS messages shrink to about 23kb. ALLLL incoming MMS, even those I send to myself.
They show as being 128k, but when downloaded shrink.
I'm on T-mobile usa and the problem seems to be that the handset is not recognized on the T-mo usa network.
As soon as I flash CM7 the problem is solved because of the "custom user agent" setting in the messaging app.
I'd stick with CM7, but it doesn't have wifi calling
Is there any way to change the sms useragent in other ROMS?
Or has anyone else encountered this issue and found a solution?
And I'm 99.9% sure the isn't APN related, in case that comes up.
Thanks in advance!
same here
has anyone found anything? have the same problem, i'm on openOptimus build 2.202.1 and i read Gosms can fix it! not sure.. about to try it out but not a big fan of it! i use handcent sms but problem is still there!
i guess i'm stuck with GoSMS lol! i installed it and i'm happy to report that pics come at full size!!
I'm running CM7 RC0.6 on my Thunderbolt with the 1.16.00.0223r baseband.
The problem i'm having is that my incoming texts have an inconsistent timestamp. I can be getting texts from somebody and have the time be correct, then every few texts the timestamp will be an hour ahead.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Weird.. thought this was only a sense GB related issue..
Download SMS Time Fix from the market, and make sure it is enabled.
You're fixed
The problem is that it isn't always an hour ahead. Sometimes the message is on time, then I'll be an hour ahead the next time.

On the BAMF Sense ROMs, I can use SMS Time Fix and then select "Use phone's time" as the manual override to the timestamp. It works every time for me.
when i was on my incredible i used sms timefix and it got so annoying i just wipedx3 and reflashed and i was okay again.
Ok, I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 on T-Mobile, not sure if this is the same for all carriers.
I have been using Go SMS Pro. Never had any issues till they updated it a few updates ago..I have uninstalled it and reinstalled. The problem is, that some Text (SMS)messages won't send, they FAIL. It don't matter if it's short (5 or less words) or long. or to who it gets sent to. I can, however, exit out of this app, and try to send it using the stock App that came with the phone and it sends without any issues. I am lost at this point as to why it keeps happening, or how to fix it.
Has anyone else experienced this isuue and if so, how have you fixed it?
I have alos tried to use Hancent SMS and it also did the same thing..
hmm i'm having a similar problem, but mine does send after a while instead of failing to send completely. Sometimes, my text messages will be stuck during the "sending" animation, where the green arrow just keeps loading and doesn't stop (which means it's not sent out). After a while, it will send out, but that's usually after i send a txt to someone else or if i exit and restart GO SMS PRO, or do something else. I'm not sure exactly but it just works after a while.
It's nothing to do with bad signals either. I'm not sure if it's because I've updated my Motorola Milestone to CM7 RC1, because i've never had this problem before on CM7 RC0. I dunno, it could be due to basebands as well? For my Milestone, I can choose to switch between basebands in the settings (provided by CM7 itself), but i've never had this problem before so i dunno....
I actually gave up on that app...happened quite too many times.. I now use Hancent SMS and never have this issue again... It also was happening to a co-worker and she did the same thing after I told her about it..

Sorry, as silly as this sounds...I gave up on this app a long time ago and went with Hancent SMS Pro...only had this issue once with them and found out on my type of phone Galaxy S2, I can't disable the other SMS apps in Handcent, I had to leave it enabled...so try that with Go SMS Pro...I don't know/remember if Go SMS had this option in the Settings...Good Luck...let us know if that worked or not...
Had the same problem using Go SMS with two SIM cards. Both failed to send to certain numbers; so it's not an issue with providers. Solved this way: Go SMS settings, More tools, SMS blocker, Settings, disable all black list and white lists. The app runs normally again. The developers should take note of this.
hhhmmmm... same here... I can't send SMS using GO SMS Pro to my Samsung Galaxy Note 1. But I can send message using the ordinary app here which has only 80 characters.... What should I do? How can I fix it? But it works in my Motorola phone.. hhhmmm....
Just go to your app manager, then choose ho sms pro, then below the premissions part. You can see the options on sending premium sms. Select ASK and try if it works again...
I was wondering if anyone has or had this problem. Probably 4 out of 10 txt will not send. I will have to delete txt retype and try sending again. Sometimes it works and sometimes I have to try several times before txt sends. I'm using Go sms Pro. I have uninstalled that and used the stock txt program same problem. On my 3rd photon now with same issue. Any help would be much appreciated.

Sounds to me like it's a service related issue. Best thing to do is get in an area that has the best coverage and send away.

What ROM are you on? Stock? Check to see if the texts that wont send are texts that exceed 160 characters. Get back to us.

Do you by any chance use google voice? Its been known to cause some issues with calls and texts. If not, call Sprint and have them send a refresh to your phone. Only takes a few minutes and it itll probably help your problem.
