Does he (or you) have an airave? If so, that might be the cause. My brother mentioned the same problem and he fixed it by unplugging the plugging in the airave.
I'm having the same problem getting multiple text messages from someone. But not 100% of the time. I haven't contacted Sprint about it yet.
one of my friends kept telling me she was getting double texts but it has since stopped....
I've been getting them also from all different places, just here and there though. I'm thinking it's sprint and not the phone, but I really don't know.

This happened to me at times on my EVO 4G.
I've learned to live with it. I never knew what the issue was.
It hasn't happened yet for me on the EVO LTE.
I am having the same issue. I took it to sprint and they gave me a hard time but eventually they swapped me out with a new one. and then the new one i have is also having the same issue. i rooted it thinking a custom rom might fix the problem and it didnt. Im going to do a little research because it started happening when i downloaded some apps. im going to delete them and see if the problem persists. but its not the phone i dont think.. it might be a software issue that sprint has to fix. unless i got 2 lemons which i doubt but there is a chance it could happen.
I had smae problem and it was because my old phone connected to the airave after my new phone was activated. I turned off the old phone and rebooted the airave and and the messages came through one last time and stopped.
Do sms(text) backup, then under settings, the applications find your sms or messaging(if by default you kept stock). After you have backed up, clear cache and either turn of phone for a minute or two, then restart or clear data, fully stop, then shut off phone and restart. See how that works! Unless there are no important text messages, then just skip backup of course!!
Cleaning Cache on its own can keep from clutter build up(dont talk to your dentist, he is no help), and restarting or shutting phone off for a couple minutes. Minimum of Two Times a Week is always a Plus Restarting Phone....is like any system build...it reconfigures or straightens things up!!

Yes Air Rave can be reset every once in awhile to do exactly the same.
its been awhile since I posted this, when it was first happening sprint said it was because there was work being done on the towers for LTE, ever since LTE has been turning on in more areas around me it has not been happening as often, I receive double text hardly at all now
I get double texts, sometimes triple from a girl on T-Mobile and my friend w/ iPhone 4 on sprint. Never from Android phones on CDMA networks.
This happens to me once in awhile. It seems like a network hiccup, it happens mostly with my wife who is on my account.
It happens to me all the time. They'll all retain the original time stamp but come in way after the original.

I've been intermittently getting this error. Something about data not being able to connect.
Has anybody else gotten this error and does anyone know how to fix it? I'm completely stock, no root.
Same here! I can't figure out why it's doing this as well.
Yeah I've gotten it too. Flashing different radios didn't seem to help- mine is S-off and rooted. My sister works for Sprint she isn't the phone nerd like me but lol nothing I seem to do can fix it. Will update on how she fixes it if she does lol.
You can still make phone calls and everything else, just no data.
Try making a call, if it doesn't go through you will be connected to someone in tech support who will refresh you connection to the network. They implemented a security feature that will give ya that when you aren't being allowed onto the network.

Yep. Exactly what this guy said. Tell the guy the error you got and he'll fix it up right away.
I started getting this same error this morning, right after I flashed Synergy nightly 330. Not sure if it's a coincidence or not, but that's when it started. It's now doing it on every rom. I can connect to 4g just fine. It's only 3g that gives me that error. I've updated PRL and Profile but that didn't fix it. Not sure what I'll try next.
EDIT: Well, right after I submitted this message a second ago, I looked at my phone and 3G was connected and the error stopped. It lasted for a few hours then resolved itself. Strange.
Are you able to post the steps?
I am getting the same error and can't even call *2
Thanks
Apparently there is a national outage, that's why we are getting the 128 code.
I've been getting it all day too. I can make calls though, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I just keep getting the error message pop up.
I was getting it, too. I went on chat with Sprint and they reset me again. Had to take my battery out for 2 minutes and then reboot my phone twice. It's all fixed now.
I think there were network issues on the 20th as it happened to me as well. However, I just left it alone suspecting the network, and about 20 min later, it fixed itself.
This isn't 3d related guys, my evo 4G is doing it as well. It started after that small earthquake over here. Not sure if that's why but I was fine before 2pm today.

Maybe it was due to the earthquake today. There was an announcement from Sprint saying the sprint towers were overloaded.

That was because too many people were trying to call, but I don't see how calling people could affect the data.
my phone just started doing this recently while on 4G. i can make calls, send texts, browse internet, etc. only thing i can't do on 4G is play Scrabble. it tells me no network detected. today i was using Google Nav in Orange County by Anaheim, CA on the 5fwy and i saw the error pop up a few times. i just tapped on the dismiss button and continued on my way. just curious on the error as its starting to annoy me. i called sprint a couple days ago and they were clueless as to why it popped up. they checked the towers by my house and said they were fine and operational. but yet i know there is something wrong here. especially when i can't play Scrabble on 4G...LOL . i've also reset my data profile using my MSL# and updated data profile and PRL... anywho has anyone had this issue recently and has had this corrected??? BTW: I'm rooted running stock RUU 2.3.4 on latest radio and prl...

Not being able to play Scrabble while on 4G has been an issue with the Scrabble app for sometime. I reported it twice to the company but never got a response. This is totally unrealted to the errors others are reporting in this thread. Scrabble just needs to fix their app.
Did anyone get Sprint to fix their phone. I called them but they were not able to fix it over the phone.
Anyone else having problems with their texts being not delivered to their photon? The last 2 days ive gotten tons of texts that were sent day(s) before.....this only happens when I reboot. I cannot figure out why....anyone else having this problem?

I've had this problem over the last few days. Not only do I receive the texts days after they were sent, but I've gotten duplicates, each with separate date/time stamps. I'm guessing it has to do with roaming in/out of data coverage, but not sure.

Roaming in and out of coverage would make sense.
It happened to me once. I rebooted and got 27 messages

Sprint network issue is normally the cause. Search your areas listings and i bet there was some outage or something they were working on.
I have seen this behavior across many phones and networks so it would be hard to me to think its down to the phone.
If you continue to see the same issues, see if they can reprovision your phone. I remember phones always acting up on me when id switch around to new phones. id also go ahead and make sure your phone is up to date with everything and then giver her a good ole restart. Honestly, a restart is one of the healthiest things for many electronics. just like takin a shower in the morning, it gives a new good fresh start.
Over the past 3 days I haven't been able to make/receive phone calls/texts while I'm in my neighborhood (which normally I get great service on 3g/4g). Literally everywhere else my phone works perfectly. I called sprint and they said to take the phone to a store, which I did, and the store replaced it. After work when on my way home I made call just to test if that fixed the issue and it didn't, still not able to make phone calls/text messages in my neighborhood but data still works. Also we have 4 other phones on sprint none of which are lte devices and all are working perfectly which makes me think something in the tower is messed up or they're upgrading something but if I'm not mistaken sprint's voice/texts go through their 1x network. I'm confused, called sprint again and they're sending me that airwave(I don't know if that's what its called) for free. I hope this will fix it but does anybody know what it could be/if anyone else has experienced this? Maybe someone from sprint who's on here could enlighten me as to what's going on?
Thanks,

When you say great 3g/4g, you mean wimax? No lte out. I get bad reception in my house and a few other areas, but so do all sprint phones. Weird that it's just affecting you.
Also, I've heard many people say sprint is giving them a free airrave, but then still get a monthly charge for that. Maybe it's changed but double check that.
Sent from my LTEvo
Yea I meant wimax when I had the galaxy s2...and yea I'll definitely keep an eye out for that...I asked the person on the phone 3 different times if there would be anything added to my monthly bill or a one time fee and she said no b/c I didn't even request for one, I was simply just trying to find out if something was going on with the tower since we narrowed it down to the 1x network which wasn't working on my phone at the tower I was connected to...and randomly I get transferred and she says we will be sending you one...so I definitely didn't say no

Did you recently use the google voice integration? I did early on when they offered it and it borked my calling and texts but not data. It carried over from phone to phone, blackberry and two different android phones, as it is an issue with the line. If so disable the gv intergration and call Customer service until you get a tech that understands that gv may have borked it and resets the line with the network. It took me nearly a month to get mine fixed (in store, online,and by phone repeatedly) and when I finally got a hold of someone who understood my problem it was fixed in 10 minutes.

Were you not able to call at all anywhere? Because the Only time this happens for me is when I'm in my neighborhood/house Even though I still have the 3g symbol up and 4 out of 5 bars. And this started 3 days ago now, and I have had google voice integrated since before I had the evo 4g lte.

Well it's an odd issue but mine was a progressive failure. Initially I lost receiving texts, then a few days later receiving calls, days later sending texts and shortly thereafter calling out. I never lost data and always had signal when I was trying to use it and I initially thought it was the tower I was near. I came home that summer from school (~150mi away) and instantly knew it wasn't the tower. So if it is the GV thing it may get worse for you.
I'm the only person who seems to have had this particular problem before that I'm aware of and at the time no one could tell me what was going on. So if anything this may be a "check it off the list" just to make sure it isn't your problem as well.

How long have you had the GV integration? My particular issue wasn't immediately after the attempt but ~3-5 days after it. It may be worth a shot though to see if it solves it.

Thanks, yea I'll give it a try...and I've had it probably for at least a year...I'm not a 100% sure but I feel as if I activated it for the first time when I had my Evo 4g.
Non of my SMS are being delivered today. Anyone else having this issue?
EDIT: Having the same issue with whatsapp messenger as well.
99.5% chance its sprints towers. Update prl and profile, reboot, wait it out. Your surrounding towers are probably being worked on. It's one of Network vision "side effects"
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Simple PRL and profile update will fix it 99% of the time
Any other ideas? I've done many PRL updates and profile updates, hard boot and soft boot and went from tower at my work to tower at my house about 45 minutes apart, and SMS still not going through.
My phone is working fine in terms of data and phone calls etc, just no SMS. Whatsapp seems to have fixed itself as well.
I've had really annoying texting issues. Probably been my biggest issue with this phone -- I guess it could be due to network vision upgrades, but it started happening right after I purchased my EVO 4G LTE. Mine hang sometimes, then other times it'll send the same message 10 times.
The only issue I've had to where it just won't send at all, even after a restart, is with my airave. I've had it happens a few times -- my texts will hang indefinitely (arrow animation never stops) until I unplug my airave.
I had issues with sms not sending today also. But I'm sure its b/c of them working on the towers LTE.because about 3 times since last Saturday I had LTE for like 5 minutes or so then gone.but sms working again now.

It's the network upgrade guys. Coincidence or not, it's the upgrade. Everyone has complained about this and it's always the same explanation.
Do you have to call your voicemail to get your texts?

Oh, okay. Color me convinced.
Funny you post this, mine are not working well this afternoon.
Just curious, are you guys using stock or custom rom?
Stock.
Anyways, I called up sprint and they were able to help me out. At first he said there was a cell site that was being worked the tech did the troubleshooting, asked me to reboot and I am able to send and receive test messages
Out of the blue I'm now unable to send text messages. :crying:
I can still receive them, just can't send them. Hopefully it's something on Sprint's end and it works itself out in a days time.
I found out I was unable to make calls as well. I restored a few previous Viper 4G nandroid backups to see if that would help, but no luck. I finally restored all the way to the stock rom w/ root and I was able to make calls again. A fresh wipe and install (not restore) of Viper 4G and I was back to not being able to make calls. Guess it's stock rom for me for awhile. Classes started today and I won't have as much time to play.
And stock pooped out too. Must've been a fluke earlier.
Things now work again. The fault is all on Sprint's end. Stupid Sprint...
I hope there's a silver lining and it means I'm getting LTE sooner than later!
Its network congestion most likely, in my experience sudden roaming or network dropping in and out in a well covered area means repair or upgrades which now that I think about it could affect text messages as well
I was texting just fine, messages going out and back in, then a short time later texting completely stopped working. Nothing happens when some one sends a text. When I try to send it sits there for a while then says "unable to send message after multiple attempts." I'm now 20 miles from where the problem started so I cant say it's a tower issue. Other people in this office also have an Evo 4g and they can text fine. I restored a backup I had made a couple days ago in TWRP but still no luck. I wasn't doing anything, no phone hacks, updates, games, etc. It was working one minute then not working the next. Any ideas?

I was getting the same issue a few days ago. Texts wouldn't send at all and I would receive the 10-20 past the timestamp. It only happened to me while connected to 4G though because of tower issues. If you're in an unofficial 4G area turn it off and only use 3G for now

Thanks for the replies. I did get it fixed. No 4g here, most likely not for years. Yes I did everything, updates, resets, even went back to stock and loaded the latest update. Brought it over to a sprint store and left it with them. An hour or so later they got it working. He said they actually had to do quite a lot of things to get it going again. Some kind of network problem... sprint forgot who I was for texting or something. Possibly could have called in and gotten my network stuff refreshed to get it going. He couldn't tell my why texting would be working just fine and then minutes later be inoperable, yet everything else ran just fine. Oh well, it works again. Now an even longer wait for s-off.
