SMS Problems - Texts out of order - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I got my Note today and when having a conversation with my sister on it I noticed that when I responded to her texts mine would sometimes go above hers. (see image) It wasn't just in GoSMS also happened in the stock program. Has anyone had this issue before and know how to resolve?
Image: my texts are on left. In the set of two light green/yellow texts the first one should be above the green one that is above it, because it is my sister's text and THEN my response in dark green.

I had the same thing and mines even deleted itself. No clue on how to fix this. Hope someone does.

I knew I wasn't the ONLY person that actually wrote text messages that are readable and in english instead of
"oh rly dat wy he knw do dat nomor"
I thought I read somewhere about someone having this issue with android..I'll look and see if I can find it.

My Inspire used to do this too, it started doing it about 1 or 2 months ago. It happens if I fire off a response right after receiving a text although I will say it hasn't happened on the Note yet.

Am having the same issue.

My Photon 4G did this just the other day. I responded to a 4 week old SMS, then when I went back to look at it because it seemed oddly familiar, the old message had moved back where it belonged.

I have had this when i am texting with someone in different time zone. 2 weeks ago i was in Wisconsin texting family in Florida. This issue cropped up.:banghead:

I've even noticed that my responses seem to travel back in time by one minute.
When I instantly respond my text will not only be put above the text I responded to but also my response will be put back in time. Weird. I'll respond to a text I received at 6:53 and my response gets logged in as sent at 6:52.

I had the exact same problem after I was forced to install the att room en lieu my Rogers ROM. I fixed it by going into settings/time & date disable auto, put time zone to 0 and set the time and date properly and that's it!

Sms spamming?

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.

Text messages being read out loud.. help

Help. So I was playing robo defense. Got a text and it automatically read it out loud.
Was using handcent. Deleted robo defense and handcent and its still reading them out loud with stock messaging app. Phone on vibrate or loud. Doesn't matter...
I get text it says out loud number and message..
Update: when someone sends me a text it no longer automatically pops up. I have to turn phone on for notification of text and it to be read out loud...
How do I make it stop?? Please. Thanks.

Try the accessibility menu in settings.
What am I looming for?
Says no accesibility apps.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
possibly a setting under 'voice input & output / text-to-speech settings'
I looked there. Don't really see any options. Is there a way to.turn it off completely?
It just turned on at random. Thinking bout putting it in some other language so no one understands it.
Holding off on factory reset. Until nexus comes out.

There's an app for that!
Did you install it?
This has got to be the most incriminating bug ever! If my texts got read aloud every time I got them, I would not be alive to post this here today... lol
I think you have some shady friend who downloaded an app on your phone to make this happen.

Defintiely did not install any app or let anyone install anything on my phone.
Again, it happened while I was playing robo defense, I received a text and it read it out loud while i was playing. It then started to read them no matter what.
Just did a factory reset. Hopefully that fixed it.

I was going to say, uninstall handcent. There is probably a feature in it that does that

I deleted handcent thinking that was the problem but it continued on stock messaging app. So I dunno.

lmao... I can imagine the messages from my drunk friends being read out loud!!! Hahahaha... Hell, texts from my sober friends would be bad enough.
Glad you got it fixed, but also glad you posted this thread. It really made me laugh.
Same here!
I have this same issue myself, it must be a bug. Luckily it always stays on vibrate. It started out of nowhere and I don't feel like doing a hard reset yet. I looked at every single possible option and none were selected. Hope the next MR update will fix it! HTC and VZW are normally very timely and effective at updating their phones so I'm not too worried. I must say, I don't have a single other bug in this phone which is impressive for such new hardware these days.

I remember this happening on my hd2 on winmo. I think voice cmd had accidentally been turned on.
I hope you weren't sexting.

Receiving double text messages

I've been searching around and haven't had any luck on this issue...since installing the first custom ROM, and every one installed since (beastmod, bulletproof, and revolution), I keep getting double text messages...anybody else? Fixes?

yes call tmobile and blame them. nothing to do with roms, is ur carrier's fault.
That's lame...I remember my G2 sending duplicate texts at first and that seemed to be fixed pretty quick...I guess I can't do anything but wait and hope

This was happening to me a few times, i forgot with what rom exactly.. Im on bulletproof now and it hasnt happened lately
This happens pretty frequently..along with several other issues I just posted.
I have the same issue. Only happens once in awhile.

I have the factory Rom installed and get it from time to time. Don't think its a Rom issue.
I got them today...multiple times...I remember when my Motor Cliq kept doing it...I think it might be a T-Mo issue
Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G using Tapatalk
Happened to me too. There is a thread over tmobile forum about this problem. So far, no answer from tmobile yet. I think it has to do with the phone. I never had any problem with other tmobile phones. I'm using bulletproof, but I don't think its the Rom. It's kinda annoying.

I received multiple texts on Tuesday. However, when I mentioned it, the person who sent the texts said her phone had been acting up that day, and other people she'd texted also received multiples.
I sometimes get multiple messages. I always get ATLEAST 3 of the same MMS message. VERY annoying lol
I was having this issue and what I found is that I had my contacts in multiple places (Some on sim card, some on google, some on tmobile contact backup, some on phone ect...) I deleted everything except gmail and havent had issues since. Give thata try before you waste your breath calling care.

I only have contacts with Gmail. Nowhere else. Yesterday, I received the same message from one friend 38 times in less than 20 seconds!

Ouch. Yeah not sure what would be causing that, might want to have them file a help desk ticket and have the engineers look at it.

A suggestion.
did u try hard resetting your phone..?
If not, try it out..
ELSE.--> try finding stock updates for your phone and flash them.

[Q]MMS messages come in as videos

Well ive had this issue on my galaxy nexus but it appears to be happening also on my galaxy s 3 (Verizon). It usually only happens when someone sends me a picture along with text inside the text message. While its not a HUGE deal its still very annoying. Is there any way to fix this?
I heard all variant of gs3 has this bug. Hopefully Samsung will fix it soon.
Try Gosms if it bother you that much.

I've once again had to resort to using Handcent as a workaround for the mms issues. I don't understand why no Android phones can handle mms as well as other (unspoken) phones.

This has been the way mms are displayed on sgs1, sgs2 and now sgs3. Its definitely annoying but doubt they will fix since I've seen this on all three generations now

I really hope I dont get flamed for saying this but I LOVE my gs3 but in regards to messaging well..a certain type of "phone" handles things much better -_-

It only shows up as a movie when they send you multiple pictures in one MMS. Have them send you one pic at a time and they'll come through normal

Can't receive texts but can send them...

I'm running CM9 final and haven't had any issues lately. Today I received texts up to a certain point from some Ppl and some I didn't when they texted me. I can send out but get nothing back. Phone calls work fine and so does my data... Any ideas? Please help!
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
Well it's a pretty stable build. Which they wouldn't have released if SMS didn't work. Which means its user error. Either it's a setting u changed. , an app u have running, or u didn't full wipe before installing. Best guesses at least. Good luck , happy flashing

I understand that this is a legit problem you're having but please don't double post. It is against xda rules

I posted in CM9 only cuz that's the run I'm on, but thought I should post in question and answers instead. I will remember that next time. I've been on CM9 for quite a few days now and exec today I have been getting texts then all of a sudden nothing... I haven't changed anything, I was working most if the day.

You might try clearing data for messaging app on manage apps.
I tried that, too no avail.

I had good luck following this guide for setting up APN on I777 on CM9 , it is for ATT. It is from Infuse forums but it works anways. If it doesn't there is an option to reset to default.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1791526
*update* I ended up calling Att and tech support. After some trouble shooting he had me put my Simon into another phone to "wake it up, or un freeze" it then put back in my phone. I then got 18 texts when phone turned on. He said sometimes the Sim card gets confused from switch between towers and locks up. So really was an easy fix. Hope this helps anyone else. Thanks for suggestions!

Def a weird thing. But I thought it was something with the phone or especially being on a ROM. But just a confused Sim card turns out. Lol
