Not sure how many of you have transitioned from an iPhone to the Note, but I've noticed a problem. People who used to text message me are having problems doing so now.
When they try to text message me, (from their iPhone), its trying to send via iMessage and therefore doesn't get to me on my Note. It's hit or miss for some people. Sometimes it comes through...other times it doesn't.
Is there any way to unregister my line which now has the Note on it from iMessage?

I had the same problem. What I did was restore the phone and it fixed my issue. That was the only way I could unregister my account.

Hmmm...I've Erased all data and settings on my old iphone (and sent it to it's new owner)...
Are you saying that as soon as he set his up that it should clear up?
This is how I fixed it.

Turn off iMessages, that way you dont have to do any restore

So I decided to sleep over at my girlfriends the other day and woke up to her yelling at Me. The then got mad at me for testing other girls that were just my friends ( I know, It's kind of ridiculous). Anyways the strange part is I had deleted the messages and then she told me she knows how to view deleted messages. So I've been looking around online for a while now and I haven't heard of any way to view messages when they are deleted. Oh by the way she isn't very tech savvy. So any ideas how she is viewing messages that I have deleted? Also I'm using handcent, but the messages are not on the stock messaging app.
Any chance she installed some kind of app on your phone another time that keeps your texts and email in memory seperately. Oh yeah and find a new girlfriend, even though she was right she shouldn't be invading your privacy that much.
Pimpin ain't easy. In the meantime, you should keep a screen lock on it.

Mm it will be hard to tell with Android , anyways , some people is having problems erasing sms because they come back up in the device(I think is HTC sense.com ) but.you should just lock the screen, and if she ask you why you locked it , well tell her that you want to make sure if you loose it don't want anyone messing with it ha ha
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d

She quoted the conversation almost perfectly ha... So either she has it sent to her phone VIA some spyware app that i haven't noticed, or she found a way to outsmart half the world and bring texts back from the dead... Ha any ideas guys? I don't like the idea that someone can read my deleted messages.

Ya maybe. It would be nice to know how she did it. Plus Idk how she will react to lock codes. I guess we will see.
From the msg list screen in handcent hit the menu button. Then select more. Hit delivery report. This shows all sent msgs but not received. Not sure if that is what she was looking out. from the report if you hit menu you can clear the log.
Freak I think that was it! Sweet! is there something like that on the stock messaging app or just handcent? Thanks a ton!
There are ways to recover erased text messages.
Most likely, you have a sms logger, something like smsbox.
As a side note, I would get rid of someone spying on me. Trust is a major part of a relationship, spying shows no trust, which dooms any future.
Make sure the sms/mms forward feature is disabled. Maby she set it up to forward your messages to her email or phone. (Messaging, Menu, Settings, Forward To...)

get this app
The hidden message app. Been using it a while .. makes cheating a breeze ! It looks like a stupid stoner app. But really hides all messages and calls to a privite folder that u need a pw to get at !!
If you have Google Voice integration the Google Voice app holds a longer history.
Maybe you're really trying to get us to help you recover her deleted messages. Judy kidding. Maybe she's using Dexrex

Hi Everyone,
Finally switched my my original HTC EVO to Samsung Galaxy S3 on sprint. Have been really disappointed so far and hoping you can help. I have always used SMS Backup+ by Jan Berkel from the Play store when restoring text messaging back to the EVO, whether I broke or lost a unit. I restored the 13K in messages to my new S3 and I have had continuous problems with the messaging app. It either doesnt load at all, take 10-15 seconds to send each message, or provides a popup stating that sms need to be forced closed. I restored my wifes 12K in SMS to her new HTC EVO 4G LTE and it has worked flawlessly. Any ideas as to the cause?
Also, I could not sync my phone to any of my pc's at home as it would not load drivers. After spending 20 minutes with Samsung Advanced tech support their only advice was to do a factory reset, wth??? The factory reset, as suggested by other posts, fixed the syncing/USB driver issues. It also fixed the SMS issues but I am wondering if that is because I just have restored my old messages yet.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Well, there's no reason to have 12000 messages on a phone, but if you insist...
What about other messaging apps? Could be Samsung's just doesn't handle huge threads very well.

Yea I guess I don't need them all, just bothersome that a 2.5 year old phone with a slower processor handles them without ease and that my wifes had no problem with the restore.
Do you think the factory reset might have fixed it all, should I try to restore my texts and see?
Honestly I use mybackup pro that one lets me back up texts up to 12k is my highest that I had just to see if it could do it. it backs up SMS, MMS or both. It does a good job for me. I've used it continually since I had a problem with SMS backup+. Try it out.

I bet it has something to do with differences within the HTC and Samsung messaging apps.
Sent from my SPRINT GALAXY S III
Samsung and HTC are very different when it comes to software so it could be that your EVO messages simply aren't compatible with samsung but why would you even want them on your phone?? just put them on your PC and if you ever need the texts you'll have them there. I think this belongs in the questions forum so watch out cuz your in big trouble!

Haha, scary stuff. Thanks for the suggestion!
New Android user here......coming from iPhones in the past. Been playing with the S3 for nearly a week now and so far have no regrets at all.
My question right now is about the GO SMS Pro text messaging app. I love the way it has a pop up that shows the text message and you can quickly reply or quickly delete it. The problem I am having is when I am recording a video on the phone and a text comes through, the pop up window will stop the recording automatically. Of course, that would not be good if recording something important.
So, does anyone know of a setting or fix for this. I went through all the settings, but nothing seemed like it would be for that. I may try to email the developer to see what he/she says, but wanted to see if someone here has an answer first.
Thank you for your time.

If that ends up being the only way, then I will just stay on the stock app. The pop up feature is the only thing I really care about. I know I wont remember to go disable the pop up feature every time I go to record something.

Hey Friendz can we really hide "last seen" on WhatsApp..??

Yes there is a small trick, which i found out yesterday..
For me i have a samsung galaxy 5 and no internet on my phone(but it also works on phone data plan) i use Wifi, the trick is for me to have wifi on so i can recieve messages and once i do, i just turn off my wifi and then open the whatsapp message. after that you can even type a reply if you want send it, close whatsapp completly and start your wifi again. it wel then send the message but you wont have come online, my friends still think its freaky that i was last online 3 days ago while im still talking to them the only downside is that you yourself then cant see when someone else was last online cause to get that information you need to be in the message and online. hope this helps.

yes that you can just take another phone add a contact that you want to see and you can spy their status without being seen! I'm surprised you didn't figure this out obviously you can do many tricks for this. one is saving multiple data profiles for whatsapp and it requires root
another way for anyone, stock unrooted phone, is installing and uninstalling or clear data, change sim etc etc

you need to use titanium backup, make a backup of whatsapp. Then delete whatsapp data and create a new account with a new phone number.
You might need to move the old backup from /sdcard/TitaniumBackup saved as .tar.gz to some other folder and then you can swap whenever you need to change profile.
I hope you can understand what I mean!
maybe I'll try it
thanks! It's much better than the previous method!
Been lurking this forum for years... but...
I bought a G-Watch on Friday night, and have been using it ever since... my problem is that when I send a text message via the watch, there is no record of it in the messaging app - whether stock or 3rd party.
However, in the stock app, an empty text message will pop up, only to say "no content." Whats even more strange, is that the message is STILL SENT!! Even though there is no record of it on the phone. Receiving messages works fine, its just sending that is the problem. I've looked at every setting I can think of... no luck.
Help!

That's definitely a bug. Seems to be more an issue on the phone than on the watch. No idea how you would fix this though. Don't wanna say reset, but it's the only thing I can think of. Try to reset just the watch first, then you won't have to setup everything on your phone again.

That's kinda what I figured. I factory reset both of them last night with no luck. I guess I just have to wait for an update - kinda sucks wondering if the fix will be included in the next update, or if LG even knows its an issue. I've looked for hours and haven't seen anything related.
Thanks.
Have you considered moving out to hangouts to use alongside the watch? Ever since I got mines I just made hangouts the primary app and I haven't had any issues.
No matter what, I can never stay away from android for long.

I did, with the same result.
However, I just stopped by Verizon a couple minutes ago, and he asked me if I had tried Verizon's app called "Verizon messaging" and I of course said no. He put it on the phone and it actually worked. But with that app, the watch doesn't vibrate during the notification of an incoming text.
So I guess I have to pick which is more important... a record of sent texts, or a legit notification that I received a text message. I'm leaning towards option 2.
That's interesting. I'm not sure why it's not working on either app. And I'd definitely go for option 2 as well. another dumb question have you reset your phone and the watch?
