SMS stock app keeps freezing - AT&T LG Optimus G

Got a new LGOG last week. I am on stock 4.0.4.
I am experiencing a problem that is the messaging app freezes quite frequently. I was wondering what could be the reason behind this error.

Mine does that atleast once a day. I noticed when I'm deleting messages that's when it freezes and has to force close. Or sometimes when I'm trying to create a new text message it freezes. It's really annoying.

People, try to provide more information so we can try to help. Now that the LGOG is rooted and unlocked and we have three ROMs several mods and scripts in the forum it helps if you can provide if you are stock or modded and to what extent. There are lots of experienced people in this forum but we can't help without you helping us....:

I was using the stock ROM and the SMS app was freezing.
Then I rooted unlocked and installed base 0.7.3 which is my current ROM just to solve the sms issue. Still the SMS app freezes and force closes especially when i delete some conversations. It freezes all the times if i delete some conversation while there is some group sms in sending.

Now that you mentioned it it happened to me yesterday. When deleting conversations. I'm set up just like you. I wonder if there are a batch of bad phones out there. Sorry my post was for the other person to provide more info
Edit; going to flash x's Rom to see if that helps

It seems more related to software than hardware. let's hope x's ROM does the trick.

Nope, happened to me again this morning as I was deleting some SMS. I'm going to try another SMS app this time and let you know how it goes.... UGH I love this phone, but it seems so temperamental

I think it's a common problem with almost all the phones. LG should pay attention and fix this.

Help with messaging

Hey guys somethings wrong with my aria, I don't receive text messages and my market apps don't update, but sometimes ill just get messages randomly but with like 12 of them at once! People can receive them from me but I don't receive....its annoying, also it will sometimes receive them after I reboot the phone. The reason I know that my phone is like this is cause my friends told me that I wasn't replying to them. So I borrowed an old iphone and used that for a week and got all my text messages just fine and had no problem :/ does anyone have a solution? And is this also happening to other people?

Text issues

Recently my thunderbolt has been sending 4 copies of the same text message to everyone. Has anyone encountered this problem or know of a fix?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Mine sent a message three times today. Not sure why. Using Go SMS Pro.
This is a Verizon network issue, along with several others regarding the thunderbolt. Hopefully it will be fixed soon .

I'm having a different kind of texting issue.
Sometimes when people text me, I'll pull down the notification bar to reply, write my message, and try to send. But the "Send" button is greyed out! I have to close out and reopen for it to work again.
Are you running a custom Rom or a different sms app than stock?

Yes that was directed at you. For the little time that i was on stock i was noticing that too. I think that it is a bug with the sense text. I disabled everything in stock sms and started using go sms, seams to have fixed it for me.
Sense seems to have some issues updating it's texting widget for me, I'll get the notification for a new sms, I'll go to my widget screen to read it and it won't be there, it's not until I go through the notification bar to read it that it shows up, kinda annoying.

Pansi SMS

You guys gotta try Pansi SMS (yes i know horrible name), but this is by far the fastest msg app thats out right now, and its not blotted like go sms, its simple to use and also customize-able
Liking it so far no bugs for me so far

Thanks for the tip.... I tried the app and it's ok. The menus look like it's from go Sms. I'll stick with the stock app for now.
Stock ICS app and SMS Pop-up will always be the best in my opinion. On GB I stick with Go. I tried this one, and while it ran nice it didn't really stand apart from any other messaging app.
Tried it, still prefer go sms pro

Pansi MMS Crash
Anyone experiencing "process com.pansi.msg has stopped?"
Everytime i try and send an MMS it crashes. I've wrote the developer 5 times and no response. And there hasn't been an update to the app since july 31, 2012. I have a Razr Maxx. Any help would be appreciated.

Personally for external SMS solutions, I use Google Voice as I can use it on my phone but also via my PC.

Sorry no help, but I have experienced exactly the same issue. Stock messaging sends MMS fine. Pity, Pansi is a superior product apart from this issue.

No new updates for pansi, its to bad. I love this app but now it drain battery, if you use betterbatterystat app than you will see for how long this app keep waking your phone.
TimeService wakelock of pansi drains your battery

[Q] SMS limit

I'm a youth pastor and send texts to around 80 students about events and things we are doing. I send mass texts to them quite often and the most annoying thing I've run into is the SMS hour limit. I can't remember if it's 100 or 160 but either way after I surpass that number within an hour (only two mass texts to my students) I then see a popup warning after every individual text. I then have to manually click yes after each warning or my messages never send. I found this thread but it doesn't seem to work...

Google Voice supports mass sms
Wow I had no idea there was a limit and I text a lot. Is this carrier specific I wonder?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
Mass texting is not the problem. There is a setting embedded in the Android OS that makes a warning popup after you reach a certain number of texts PER HOUR. It is not carrier specific it is within the Android OS settings. any other ideas?
Hmmmmm. Very interesting. I don't have the slightest clue.

Can you post the screenshot?
And which rom you are running.
I'll screenshot the next time it happens. I'm always running the most current version of tasks' AOKP ROM.

If you read the thread I linked in my OP it seems that it is a system warning and not carrier or ROM based.

I read it, i was just stating that it must be reachable either in the framework.jar or somewhere else in the system files.

Actually elite SMS screwed up my phone. It rebooted right after install and reset many of my ROM settings and completely disabled my home button. Had to do a full wipe/reinstall to fix everything... any ideas what happened?

As far as I know I can't text groups larger than 10 with the stock messaging app... unless I'm missing something?

AOSP Messaging App?

Is there any way to get the AOSP text messaging app to replace the Sense one? I read that a direct replacement of the APK doesnt send MMS correctly. Anyone got one working? Im sick of the Sense messaging redraws and slowness.
There is one on the market but mms doesn't work on it either. I want it too. Hopefully someone can figure it out!

You guys should try Slide Messaging from the Play Store. It's pretty awesome. Funny thing is I had that exact idea not too long ago. Anyway, if you download it, it doesn't have MMS support yet and it's a tad bit slow even on our phones. >_<

No problem at all. I was just at work and didn't have time to get drop box downloaded and that apk uploaded. Hahah. It was just really quick to gmail them

I find the app works, but unless I freeze the stock messaging app in TiB I receive duplicates for each message. So if you freeze it everything works right, but now I have the problem that lightflow keeps repeating and I cant clear the notification sounds unless its from the stock app. I could just disable lightflow, but I work in a loud environment and I kind of need it to keep repeating or else i usually wont hear or even feel it 1st time. That's all i use lightflow for, is the repeating sound and vibration, the LED's are disabled. If anyone knows another app out there that can do the same thing that would be nice.

Does this have group messaging? This is the only reason why i stick to the sense app.

Or not, since MMS is really shoddy and is completely disabled without paying, not to mention it being really slow if you have many messages.
