New arcoft MMS from new VZW ROM

I was wondering if anyone has used the new arcsoft MMS in the new ROM. Was it supposed to be an update? improvements?

The new version on the VZW release is 5.0.70.24. I can receive MMS ok but SMS over 160 characters are cut off. I still receive part of the SMS along with the "Preceding msg modified, Media ojects were removed" error message.
I had my wife send the long text and she receive the following error message "Message Delivered to 7########5 as plain text Destination does not support enhanced messaging service"
It does not allow the addition of new servers or the viewing of the Verizon Wireless server settings.

This is a problem with Verizon's servers.. and not the arcsoft product.
GC14 has apparently dealt with Verizon extensively on this issue.. He talks about it in this thread (among others)

That said... The new version "shouldn’t" cause any problems, and may actually offer something?? Maybe better memory usage, or bug fixes? But I dont really know.
I've been screwing with this version ever since I was given the update a while ago. There are a few issues with it I'm trying to work out, but when I'm done, it should provide an update for Alltel users as well.

I've been using it for about a week now...the main difference I noticed was with the picture messages, in version 5.0.31.25 the MMS are imbedded in the threaded SMS, and if you didnt save the content of the MMS and u received 6 or 7 new texts from the same person the message would be lost among ur other messages and u would have to click "view older messages" to get to them...
In version 5.0.70.24 each picture message is a seperate message, seperate even from the SMS messages from the same person...
but I haven't noticed anything more then that yet...
Is it possible to get this newer build as a .cab? Would it just drop in replace the existing arcsoft .cab GC14 made?

I regularly use version 5.0.31.25 and I never have issues. I send text messages everyday and many of them are longer than 160 characters but sending and receiving has been working fine for me. I sms Google (http://www.google.com/intl/en_us/mobile/default/sms/index.html) and many times there are multiple responses/search results and Arcsoft just breaks them up in to separate messages. When I view the messages, they are all together though, threaded view or whatever it's called.
I do deal with the whole lost messages issue if the phone is reset while Arcsoft is open still but as long as I close the program, it's fine.
Am I rambling about stuff that you guys aren't talking about?

You can send 160 + char texts... it's receiving that is an issue.. aparently it's only certain messaging servers as well.. I get a lot of automated texts from my server server monitoring systems.. most are over 160 Char, and most are cut off ( i only need the first few lines anyway).. but about 10% of them come through as part 1 and part 2 (broken up properly).... Guess it just depends on what servers do the delivering??
This has been the issue on every version I've tried...
Where did u guys get the new arcsoft MMS? I mean is there a cab out there or is it still being tweaked?

i flashed to the official VZW rom...I'm waiting on GC or DCD to rip the Arcsoft MMS out of the the new rom so I can flash to 3.2.6

conversations disappear in messaging after 3.14 rom update

there doesnt appear to be anything in search relating to this so here goes.......
.....im getting sick of htc changing so many features and settings on this phone everytime they release an update. ive got another issue now. not mentioning the dozen ive managed to sort myself in the last day or so.
my text messages are now all over the place. if i recieve a message i hit the message icon on the scroll bar and it opens. reply and then close. normal situation. however. when i want to send another message to the same person either by opening their contact info or hitting the message icon and finding the conversation there is no info at all. wtf!!!
if i go to all messages i get a list of all recipients and the last message either sent or recieved but when i click on that person to reply the entire conversation, 1,2 10, 100 messages that are in brackets next to their name are nowhere to be seen. ive tried removing contact pictures, deleting numbers and attaching them to the contact when a message comes in. no luck. been through the messaging settings, cant find anything else to check or uncheck to resolve this situation. ive no contacts on my sim card just the phone.
cheers. i do need to know if its a general thing with this rom or is my phone just playing up? anyone else noticed this? communications is a big part of messaging and as all phones nowadays seem to be able to record and display conversations with each contact i find it hard to believe htc suddenly decided to bin the idea.
anyone got any suggestions as to how i recover this option as i cant be asked to remember the last few messages of every conversation i have. not to mention important information that i cant access if i cant pull up more than one previous message!
I have the new stock Rom 3.14, and I haven't encountered anything like you've described here. What application did you use to restore the backed-up messages after you flashed the ROM?
fixed this. i had installed a cab recently which disables the annoying 'sent message successfully' notification. but this was also causing the above mentioned problem. unistalling the cab means ive got my conversations back and all contacts/messages link properly. see here for all info and further links... http://www.htchd2forum.com/general-htc-hd2-discussion/more-hatred-for-new-3-14-rom-(conversations)/

Tango (SMS verification) NOT working for HTC One?

As the title states, I'm having problems with tango verifying my phone number through sms.
Heres what happens, I download the app and put in my info including email and it states that I need to verify my phone number with a sms message it will send. So I hit the SEND button and I get nothing! I've tried this both with a stock phone and with a trickdroid one and both fail to receive message.
I've looked on tango site and it states that android will automatically intercept the message and verify my account which is not happening. Is anyone else having this same issue too?
Thanks,
Tim
anyone care to do an quick download and test tango out for me???
It installed just fine for me and even picked up my old call logs from a couple of years ago. It didn't require a verification of my number though, or at least it didn't say it did.
I'm completely stock, though, so I don't know if that makes a difference.

Voicemail with Paranoid Android?

I installed Paranoid Android 4.6 Beta 6 (4.4.4) on my LG G3 and I can't figure out how to check my voicemail at ALL. I get no notifications for voicemails at all. When I call my own phone number, which I thought was supposed to send me to my voicemail inbox, I just get my recording and the option to leave a message. Was I supposed to install a third party app to be able to check voicemail? Can somebody help me figure out how I can access the old messages and any future messages? Help please!

usually, when voicemail cant interact with your device (on custom roms) you should get a weird text msg when a vm comes in.
just dial *86 to retrieve it. or you could get google voice and have it intercept your voicemails. i just got it yesterday, but it seems nice, and you can make calls and text from it for free.
there is no official vzw app that will work with non stock roms that im aware of.
we may be able to pull the vvm app off the n6, but i havent seen that confirmed working yet.

S9 messages app bug?

Ok so I have a weird problem to report. After installing the latest Oreo update over-the-air from T-Mobile this morning, I installed the Galaxy S9 messages app from apkmirror.com, the one with the blue icon.
The messages that functions normally like you would expect it to but any time I get a text message from my wife who has a Galaxy S9, I get the text message twice. This issue can only be reproduced by receiving a text message from My Wife and nobody else.
I have been searching for a solution to this problem and I have already wiped the apps data and cache multiple times but nothing has fixed the problem.
Has anybody who has installed the S9 messages app from apkmirror.com run into the same problem and if so, how have you fixed it?
Update: it seems I'm getting duplicates from all my friends who have T-Mobile android devices, regardless of manufacturer or software version.
This happens randomly to me as well, it doesn't happen all the time but I think it is from those on tmobile as well that send me messages. I'd wait and see if it just clears up on its own. Or switch to another messaging app.

I have since uninstalled the updated version of Samsung messages and the bug is no longer present.
I was hoping for a solution or work around that didn't involve uninstalling the update but perhaps it's a bugged version of the app. I'll keep my eyes peeled for a newer version, hopefully one from a note build and not an s9 build.

If you don't mind sharing - how did you uninstall the updated Messages app? I have the same sporadic duplicate thing going on, so want to go back to stock app. Thank you

Go to settings > apps > messages and click the 3 dot menu button and click uninstall updates.
Update! I have officially figured out what is causing the duplicate text messages after updating to the latest messages app.
In the newest releases, like the ones that came on the S9 and S9+, samsung integrated the message service app into the messages app. This, for some, is causing duplicate text messages when receiving messages from people who are on the same service provider who's devices also have advanced messaging with chat features.
To fix the problem of duplicate texts, you will need to purchase and install package disabler pro ($2.50 - don't be cheap...) from the play store and disable message service app and reboot.

That's all there is to it enjoy no longer getting duplicate text messages just as I am.
Happy Tuesday!
