[Q] unknown sms after a voice mail - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello
i read few similar posts but didnt see any answer
im an orange client, and have galaxy s3
after each voicemail i listen to and then
delete on my phone, im getting an empty sms from unknown address
what can i do to stop it?

from what I remember when I had all the Orange rubbish on my s1 they send a text to notify you of missed call, but regardless of that just phone up orange help line as it is their rubbish causing it!

That.... But have you thought about the possibility of a unknown being from another dimension (aka ghost, spirt, phantasm), trying to contact you?

Caller ID on SMS Texting

I have just got myself a XDA unlocked and using it on T-Mobile. My question is, when i receive call from contacts in my address book it shows who is calling, but when i receive a text message from the same person, it just shows the number and not their name. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make it show their name because I don't understand why it isn't?
Thanks
Dr :? :?
I have sorted it myself thanks!
Hi ...
if you are happy with your current ROM you can got to www.yorch.net and search for "SMS patch" at applications section, or you can cook a new ROM that has this fix already.
Thanks for that, cheers
all sorted now

Private/Restricted SMS

is it possible to send a text message as restricted?
Restricted to what? The sender? Who else would receive it except the sender you specified?
just the recipient. just like a restricted call. *67 blocks your number from caller id. is there a way to block your number from a text message so it shows up on the recipients phone as 'unknown' or 'restricted'?
go to a website that can send a txt message and dont put your number in?
Oh you mean, hidden sender.
There was an app to do that awhile back, but certainly not in the native SMS app on the phone.
I would just use www.vtext.com

word. cool i never new about vtext. thansk

heck yes i am. minus the fact that if i send a restricted text that means i cant put a call back number on it. the reason i first thought of it was because some kid was bothering my little sister, and i wanted to message the kid without him getting my number. but i ended up calling him anyways

[Q] Facebook Mobile Text Question

I'm unable to comment on a Facebook Mobile Texts or reply "like" to a status via my facebook text. Example if I get a text from 358336 and it reads Pat is feeling good. If I text "like" to like that status it will not send it to 358336 it will send it to 358337 private message to the user inbox. Now I have tried everything to fix this even resetting my phone, flashing different roms and resetting my accounts setting on facebook still I cant reply to any texts from facebook.
Has anyone one else had this happen to them and if so, How did you fix it.
Happens to me too. That's an issue with Facebooks text service, not android or Eris so I don't think there's a way to fix it.

So is it still happening to you or did it just stop
Last I checked it was still doing that, after a few ppl on fbook told me I sent status comments to their inbox, so I got pissed and turned of texts alerts lol. Their text service has NEVER worked well for me, even on my old prepaid Samsung u350 (or whatever its called lol). I would set times I wanted texts, and would still get em all hours, I would sign up for friends, and only get a few, and worst of all when I had it set to NOT send me texts when I was online... I'd get em. So yea, their fault, their problem, and haven't seen any improvment in two years. I just stopped using it.

[Q] Anyone know of any good free sms logging app

Hi I could really do with some advise. I suspect my 13 year old daughter is being messaged by some pervert she has been talking to online. she forgot her phone a couple of weeks ago when she went swimming and got a notification of a message on Facebook which I checked only to find what was, lets say a message no 13 should get. I have deleted all her internet settings and her MSN and facebook accounts and she wont be leaving the house for quite a while, but she is acting strange and spending lots of time texting and deleting her sent and received messages as soon as she gets them. Could really do with some form of logging software or something to put my mind at rest and either beat the living ****e out of this bloke or forward his number to the police. Need something stealthy and free or really cheap as I have reciently been made redundant and all the ones I can find are very expensive. I tried stealth sms messenger but when i tried it on my phone it just forwarded blank texts. Thanks in advance.
forgot to say its for a sensation if that makes a difference
i would suggest sms backup which archives messages onto a gmail account.
i've used it for over a year without any problems.
it works away in the background but is clearly visible within the apps list.
Thanks gascomm i will have a look and see if i can hide it some way. does it backup both sent and received?
yes, both in & outgoing messages are saved.
am afraid i haven't a clue on how to hide it but there may well be apps in the market to do such a thing. best of luck in finding a full solution.
Cheers i will sort something out, thanks again for your advise
If u use a launcher like Go EX then you can hide apps in the app drawer. Best of luck
Thanks very much I will give it a shot

SMS Backup is an amazing app. Use it all the time.
Try SMS Tracker Agent.
you can track sms messages remotely.

[Q] Known number in txt

Remember time used winmobile, I have a tweak to replace known telephone number in txt by its contact. For example when using miss call alert service, the operator might send notification txt such as "you have missed call from +xxx" if xxx in your phonebook, it will be replaced by "you have missed call from Mr. A (+xxx)" etc. That is convenient as you need not to remember / call that number to know who called you. Do we have this on android, particular Atrix 4G?
