Since the ICS upgrade, my stock unrooted E3D is receiving texts twice. It happens in stock messaging, Handcent, and Go SMS...it's weird. Texts I send aren't received by others twice, but any text sent to me, I get twice. In whatever messaging app I'm using. I was wondering if anyone had seen this?

No. I have great signal...
Hmmm, well since you are unrooted, you can try a factory reset, that will clear up any bugs if it's a software glitch. I would also call Sprint first, and have them refresh or reprogram the phone.
Before doing that factory reset try ##72786# followed by your msl code. Might save you the trouble of having to restore everything back..
im leaning toward network issue as well since its happening on multiple sms apps..
Thanks guys...Looks like it might have been a network issue...it seems to have fixed itself.

Like the title says, everytime I flash a new one, or if I flash ziggy kernel especially I cannot get voice calls or data, i get radio interface shortage errors when texting ect, i have to do the ##3282# reset about 5 times to get anywhere, any theories or suggestions? I haven't seen anyone else with this problem and it started when I flashed xron ROM a few nights back..
Are you a google voice user? Are you gsm or cdma?
I only use google voice for voicemail, its Sprint CDMA
Did you update your radios AND firmware? I think the file was radio firmware nohboot or something like that?

It doesn't happen to me EVERY time, but I find myself having to go through the whole reprovisioning and re-setting data thing a lot more than I would prefer to. Hell, I've had 6 of these handsets since release date and I've had to **** around with this issue right out of the box on EVERY one! Love the phone but cmon HTC....wtf!! They really screwed the pooch on this phone, lol.

My problems are usually data problems. As far as losing voice, that happened once after using one of the older "superwipe" files floating around. Took a whole Saturday to get it back, had to get Sprint involved...boy was I pissed! Been using XRON superwipe lately and it's doing the trick!
Try ##scrtn# from dialer then enter your msl. After it reboots let us know if that works.

Still didn't help, when I go to more info on the radio interface shortage error the error code is 67,wasn't that the code a lot of people were getting after revolutionary first came out?
Call sprint and have them reset on their end....and good luck

I might have to do this, for some reason this actually happens after every single reboot, had to clarify that.
This happened to me too, even with those resets you are talking about I wasn't able to fix it. You have to call sprint, they do something on their end, guide you through the same process you are talking about, and then it works. Dial 611, tell them the error and any error code you have. Apparently they are familiar with it because they know exactly what you are facing and know how to fix it without doing any research or any other diagnostic steps.
I don't think this problem has anything to do with HTC, or the phone itself. I think it has to do with Sprints Google Voice integration. I use GV for voicemail only and I have this problem every once in s while. Next time it happens, try making the call using GV. If it works you know this is your problem. For some reason, even though you have it set up differently, GV will take over. This is a completely separate issue from the error 16 that a lot of people are getting with this phone. If it is an error 16 a simple call to Sprint will fix it. If it is the GV integration thing, then it is much harder to fix and rebooting to recovery, wiping cache and dalvik will sometimes fix the problem. Also, reflashing the kernel will sometimes fix it too. I haven't figured out a definite way to fix it yet though. It seems every time this happens, it takes something different to fix it.
I'm actually not even setup to make calls on google voice, I went directly onto the voice. Google. Com website and changed the settings to voicemail only and turned off all other integration.. Can it still be interfering?

Yes. Mine is set up the same way and when this happens if I choose to ask me every time I make a call in the GV app settings and choose GV to make the call it goes through, but when I chose do not use GV it won't work. I get a message that says, "I'm sorry, we are unable to complete your call at this time. Please try again later" and that's it. Since the Google Voice integration with Sprint I have noticed that no matter who you are calling you must dial 1, then the area code, then the # even if it is a local call.
So after upgrading to ICS I have a voice mail icon on my notification bar. This is a data only device for me with no access to voice mail does anybody have an way to clear the icon?
Kirby
Ditto! Had it since first upgrading myself. Just figured out you can slide notifications away after pulling em all up, but sadly that one won't budge.
It's not a big problem, but does get rather annoying.
Has anyone tried removing the phone apks?

This does remove the notification but borks the entire system. No cellular reception at all if you remove the phone.apk and .odex.
similar issue here
I got my Mediapad 2 weeks ago and had to get a new TMO SIM to make calls (old SIM refused to connect to network). I have had the new voicemail icon ever since and I have not upgraded or rooted anything. I'm looking forward to getting a clue on this mystery!

The typical way to get rid of this is to call yourself and leave a voicemail then delete that voicemail. I've had this problem on Android devices in general on the last few iterations of the OS. The problem with the Mediapad is that most of us have a data only plan on our tablets.
I had a similar problem when I asked T-Mo to disable voicemail on my prepaid SIM. Ever since, any device I plug the SIM into remains convinced that there's a new voicemail. This has remained the case for 1.5 years now. Perhaps this is an overall problem with their provisioning of accounts that don't have voice/voicemail.

So getting a new SIM could possibly resolve the issue.

I doubt it. For an unrelated reason I had to do a SIM swap on one of my trips to the USA, and the VM icon problem persisted through to the new SIM.
I think it's an issue in the way the accounts are provisioned. And T-Mobile hasn't managed to figure out a solution because I tried with them several times.
Come on guys simple solution.go to settings->apps->look for phone app and clear data/cache if this doesnt work do the same to the dialer app. This only clears that pesky voicemail notifacation.doesnt clear voicemail inbox

For me at least this won't work because I have neither a phone app or a dialer app. Nothing to clear, I personally think this is a provisioning issue that T-Mobile needs to deal with.

That's the only way I know how to remove the voicemail icon. Can your device use the wifi calling feature? Maybe then you can do what the quote says...
FOUND IT!
I have a T-Mobile Springboard running ICS as well. I went to settings->apps->Mobile Data... and hit Clear Data. It should immediately get rid of the stupid VM icon and I still have access to the mobile data.

I don't have any option to clear data so unless I'm missing something this isn't option for me.

Rkwhyte,
It is found in Settings->Applications->All apps->Mobile Data
from there select Clear data and BOOM the voicemail icon goes away. Don't touch mobile network configuration though.

The only problem I see though is if I turn the device completely on then turn it on again the VMail icon appears again. But that's okay. At least I know how to clear it when I'm working on my tablet so that I don't accidentally touch it again (which I've done many times). :laugh:
I have the same issue with my tablet plan :crying:
I'm having this weird issue it seems every weekend now, for some reason my SMS do not send using the stock SMS or a 3rd party app. However I can send and receive my SMS through Google Voice? I called *2 and it run those serious of test but the Voice test connection usually fails. I then hit PRL Update and it supposedly updates my PRL but still have a failed Voice test. After repeatedly doing this sometimes it will pass the Voice & Data test and then all these text that I did not receiev through my stock SMS or 3rd party app will all start coming in rapidly. Anyone else have this issue? Yes, I'm rooted and it has happened on all my ROMS that I have used. Thanks
Sprint is adding the Network Vision update to their towers. I have had the same issues in the past. I fixed it by a complete wipe, unroot, stock Rom, called Sprint went through the usual bs, and it worked.
You're saying i need to go back to Stock?
That's what helped with mine. Wish you didn't have to. Full wipe, stock Rom, unroot. Best bet for sms to work. It could be a bug in sprints network, I would wait to unroot and wipe. But its up to you. Just a question when you spoke with Sprint, were you rooted and ROMed?
It's weird cause I still can get SMS through Google Voice though?
That's through Sprint-Google Voices servers-Phone. That means you most likely will have to put to stock.
I'm stock now and on my second EVOLTE and both phones had this issue. My current stock EVOLTE still has this issue.

I'm on charmeleon Rom v.5.0.0 without any issues. Maybe both of you flash that, and tell me if its fixed. It could be a radio issue, which the Rom does address.
I did use Charmeleon ROM and had this issue! The issue comes and goes very inconsistent. Since around approximately 9/10p the issue has stopped.

Could be a sense issue, perhaps an ota will solve the issue. Sorry for your troubles. I know HTC Sense does have a "bug" (they say its a "feature" but its not.) That you're radios become weaker at 7pm-7am to conserve battery.
I think it is a sprint issue. For example when i use the stock or 3rd party SMS, in some areas of the city I won't get text all, but when I enter another area I will get all my text at once. Then they start to repeat themselves at least 3 or 4 times throughout the day. It sucks.

Agreed. I'm actually starting to have problems with 3G and the network. It's a sprint problem, sorry if I caused any inconvenience to either of you! It was well worth a try!
No issue or hard feelings NP, this forum is all about helping others. I know you where just trying to help out and I appreciate your responding! It's funny cause I'm having this SMS issue now. LOL I've never experienced any network issues with Sprint until now! For now I guess I'll just have to use GV as my SMS app of choice, although you can't send or receive MMS through GV.
Are you both using GV right now? I just installed it back on and had the issue. Didn't occur to me at the time. I will try unpairing my GV number and my number and see if it helps.
I also use GV. I wouldn't mind, but GV is really ugly and limited.

I was on the 8/20 CM10 build when I randomly stopped being able to send/receive texts. They don't go through. I nandroided back to a sense rom, and according to Sprint Zone there was a problem with the data radio, but I could make calls fine and had a strong 3g connection.
So far I've done (in this order)
Wipe on cm10
Update cm10
update radio
nandroid
wipe a few more times
update radio
wipe some more
call sprint
Did
PRL update
Profile Update
Service Update
Got an escalated engineer ticket
RUU'ed
Updated profile/prl
Tried reactivation
Tried messing with the ##3282# menu
Still nothing.
If I send it'll just hang on the sending then I'll get a pop up saying it couldn't be sent... Any more ideas?
I had a similar issue, it stemmed from Google voice. Ended up being a problem with provisioning and I had to escalate twice to get to someone who could "refresh" my line (her words) and that fixed it. Do you have your number ported to Google Voice?

Yes, but I don't have the gvoice app on my phone.
When you dial *2 does the voice test in sprint zone fail? If it does you might have the same problem and the only way to fix it is to have them do this "refresh". I tried everything else, completely returned my phone to stock but it didn't matter because it was "corruption in provisioning" I believe the rep said.

That's exactly what I noticed when I first flashed back to a sense rom. I'ma call them tomorrow and ask them to do that thanks!
I got my G3 yesterday. I can send/receive calls and I can receive text messages, but I cannot send text messages. Messages state "Sending" and then fail. I have rebooted, reset to factory, pulled the battery, and done an ancient smartphone dance, but nothing is working. Ideas?

Ha same problem on my G3 from Videotron. Had to reset to factory to get working again. Wi try the updates you guys are talking cause it takes hell of a time to send them sometimes. Receiving works all the time. Is just sending. Maybe ill try the ancient smartphone dance too just because it looks like a cool way to fix this
