AOSP SMS/MMS Thread Error - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Everyone
This is a semi-fix for the SMS/MMS threading problem.
My setup : S3 i9305T
Rom: Pandoriam
Launcher: Nova Launcher
AOSP Messaging theme
I tried the other suggested solutions of putting in the country code for the number but that didn't work for me. I put in spaces but that didn't work either.
Solution - 1: What I found worked for me was to start the message thread. It seems that if I'm not the one that starts the thread, then when the person replied it goes to it's own thread.
Solution - 2: An issue occured where a friend of mine messaged me. I deleted the thread and then replied. When he replied it started a new thread again. I deleted the thread, deleted the contact, re-created the contact and then started a new thread. That fixed the problem.
The problem is still on going for MMS. But at least it's a partial fix =)
Hope this helps someone somewhere, merry christmas!

Hi guys,
I just thought I should bring a little "fix list" for the messaging threading issue. I seem to be having more trouble than anyone, so then I got a couple of tricks that seem to work
If you have troubles with threads splitting (multiple threads per contact), try the following in this order:
1. Download Number Fixer from Play Store and add country code to all numbers. Yes, all. Try with +xx (e.g. +44) first. Then open your Gmail and enter contacts page, remove ALL spaces.
2. If the above doesn't work, try changing country code to 00xx (e.g. 0044). And remove spaces.
3. If even that doesn't work for one or all contacts, try deleting country code for that contact.
4. As a last try, add country code 00xx and delete all messages. Then be a good friend - send your friend a message! BUT - in the recipient field, type the entire number (with country code) and DON'T select your friends name when it pops up (keep typing full number). Send the message and hopefully the reply threads as it is supposed to.
Right now I think I actually use all four solutions on different contacts Some work one way, some the other. But luckily I'm not the one that care about keeping my messages

Wow...what an interesting response for my first post.
Sorry longice but I won't be giving you any credits or thanks as I didn't find your fix that you posted 3 weeks ago. If I had I would have but I didn't so I won't.
If I ever post something again I'll have to make sure I scour the threads to make sure I don't get blamed for plagiarism......and here I was thinking that the main thing was to offer help to others....

It would need to remember numbers so that it only replies to each number once in a given time period (it may do this already.)
Haha! Totally forgot to put that in there. I'll get right on it and post it later today!

Hi davey1980,
I can certainly put that on my list of future implementations and try and work it into the next version. I may be able to spend a bit of time on it this week so I may be able to get a release out before next weekend with that feature in.
With regards to downloading, if you left click the attachment you'll get the cab file to download. I just tried right clicking and "saving file as" and that gave me the php file.
If you're still struggling, email me at [email protected] and I'll mail the cab file over to you.
Thanks
no luck
well i tried left clicking and right clicking, save as. but keeps giving me php. i'll email you. cos i love this little programme!

a whitelist would be much help.
and maybe the mods could move this to the Dev section

I shall certainly be working in a whitelist into the next version. I was thinking of custom messages per whitelisted number too.
If you can think of anything else, let me know!
Mods, I agree, if this could be moved to the Dev section it would be appreciated, will probably get a few more people swinging by with suggestions then.
Thanks
Nice work
I haven't tried installing yet because I don't really have a need for it... but I can certainly see how it might come in handy one day.
Perhaps you could get some screenshots up and maybe a changelog?
Cheers!
p.s. You might need to send a PM to a mod to get their attention, they seem to be a bit thin on the ground on this site!

Ok, thanks so much. I will try it and get back to u.
thanks for the whitelist option.

[ROM][TEST] WM6.5 Leo ROM

Hi everyone...
There's been lots of talk over the new Manila builds... And guess what, I have them
I'm looking for a few people to test some stuff for me, so the first 5-10 people to contact me will get access to some shiny new stuff I haven't tested yet, including TF3D 2.5...
Bear in mind it's all very beta, it makes debug logs everywhere and anywhere and has a nasty habit of crashing... And not everything works!
I now have enough testers...
Thanks everyone!
Replied ur PM.

Dropped you an email
Everyone that has sent me a PM before now will get access to the ROM...
BTW, the ROM is for private use only, so releasing it is not allowed.
Great, I hope that includes me, I pm'd at 9:04. ;D
oooh sounds interesting, is it a newer build or is it still buggy? or are there fixes?
Also to those testing the new rom, keep a look out for a few bugs noticeable in some of the leo roms.
On home page, try adding a shortcut to an application, (not widget or others, as those seemed to have worked.) Does manilla crash?
Quite a few bugs in the messaging app, try sending an SMS. Does it error out with a no gsm connection error?
-- Will edit this post with the rest of the bugs that I forgot about, that seemed to be part of manila and not something else causing it.
I have one :
Warning: Unable to change the phone's band frequency. Please try again later.
when trying to swap Bands - Auto/GSM/UMTS
Switch to Airplane mode and back on...it grabs the 3G network but in band settings none of the Auto/GSM/UMTS seems to be the active on. All greyed out !

It's the same build as what I sent to you, but I'm going to try and fix some things.
I need to try and find a newer Leo ROM which may fix some things...
Just created a wiki page for easier posting of bug reports etc... Please keep it tidy!

Just replied to your PM.
u can include me to u r testers if u like
Greetings
I have instaled in my deviuce almost al roms for topaz and this one looks will be great. I'd loved to test it.
For those that have this ROM, can someone see if entering a contacts name in the "To:" field in Messaging produces a white screen rather than anything useful?
Hi i3v5y,
Yesterday you promised me that you will include me in your testers and even asked for my email. I pm you my email but did not receive anythng from you. Please I would be grateful if you send me the details.

[Q] How to view SMS Sent Time?

Hi all, I'm a noob (just watched the You're a Noob video haha)
This is my first smartphone, so I realised for threaded messages they arrange it according to the time received (by you), rather than time sent (from whoever sending the messages).
While this arrangement is intuitive, I was wondering if there was anyway I could look at the time when the SMS is sent, as timestamped by the telco. I tried searching but all I found was something similar for Galaxy S, so I was hoping someone can help me out
Have a nice day!
We just need to wait for someone to mod the mms.apk

About Omega v1.1 AOKP Build-39 ROM

Hi friends..
This is about Omega v1.1 AOKP Build-39 ROM..
As soon as I flashed this ROM, I fall in love with this.. It's amazing.. Too bad it won't get updated any more..
Now here are few questions if someone kindly answer them..
1. I have to go back to Stock ROM since Camera is one of my priorities and in this ROM it's not working.. but I like the inbuilt messaging app which has an option to set not to display sender name and message content on notification area whereas no such settings available in stock messaging app.. What's this app, can I install it separately..
2. In stock Messaging app, if you enable Delivery report, you get notification as you receive a new message unlike Symbian where a normal pop up appeared, is there any kind of possibility in Android too.. not a sound for delivery notification..
3. Also can someone guide me for such more ROMs like this where such mods already implemented and such nice UI.., if possible with same messaging app.
Thanks ..
Whats wrong with asking in the correct place the roms very own thread as per XDA rules ???
3. Also can someone guide me for such more ROMs

Sooo... from what i see in your screen shots, i understand that the names in your contacts list does no appear in your messages ?
Try this: go to your contact list an modify your contact number with +4 or whatever is UK prefix.
Like this:
04.555.555.etc becomes +404.55.55.etc
