[Q] Any one else getting missing text messages? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Im running liquid smooth kit kat version Build Feb 15 with Polluti0n's Rom Patch. Some incoming text messages seems to disappear into oblivion. I've seen instances where text messages wont show until a reboot of the phone but nnever where the messages simply never show up. Has anyone else experienced this?

You had to know this was coming.........
If a text doesnt show up, how do you kniw its missing?
On my phone, but my guess is, you are new and post count is too low to post in development.
Have you searched the thread for similar issue?
I would say if it has not been documented before, you will be asked if this was a clean install?
Next would be to you format system?
I would flash again as I always flash twice anyway.

Ive only been running this rom for a couple of weeks but there have been maybe 4 to 5 instances where friends or coworkers have sent me a text that never made it to my phone. They did not get a "failed message" response either. None of these messages have ever shown up on my phone. I haven't seen any one else talking about it in the main thread for this rom so I thought I would post here and see if any one else has had this happen on any rom. In the past when a Rom had problems with receiving text messages I would reboot my phone and then they would all come piling in. I haven't reinstalled the rom yet so I suppose that is the next step to try.

Did some more digging and I think it may have to do with Google hangouts. It seems there have been quite a few people who have had problems with Hangouts being the default SMS app.

Duplicate Text messages

I use the stock text app. Non rooted, completely stock phone and I constantly get duplicate messages. When I receive a new message I always get 2 of the exact same message. Sometimes I even get 5 of the same message. I called verizon several times and had no answers. They told me they were submitting a trouble ticket. Can anybody help me?
I had this issue before and it was an issue with the carrier.

I had something similar with my DX. The only way to fix it was a factory reset.
I'm having this problem right now, too. I'm using handcent but the stock app shows the same repeats. It went away for about a week a few weeks ago but it's back again now.
i get it here and there with different phones. verizon issue mostly. had a solid issue for a bit, hasn't happened in a day or 2 at least.
That happens to me mostly when the text comes from a different carrier. ie sprint.
Well not that I wanted to do it, but I used Handcent to clear all of my text messages and so far haven't received another dupe. Only been receiving from one person tonight, but she was one of the few that I had horrible duping problems with (3-5), including some earlier today.
Only with one person was I.getting duplicates. At first it was 2, then it was 5. Im using habdcent, but even the stock text messenger did the same time! We are both on same carrier though. :uugghh:

Ive done a factory reset, called the carrier and used a different text app (gosms and handcent)
Nothing fixes it, I even tried the anti text bomber

Try the Handcent that was released yesterday. They added an option to completely disable the built-in text app. That setting is off by default so you need to turn it on (both SMS & MMS is the option).

Blank message from Anonymous sender after MMS

Every time I receive a picture in an MMS I get another message from "Anonymous" no subject. I open it and it say "message not found" I receive the message multiple times until I delete the original message. This happens in the stock messaging app and in Chomp. Uninstalled Chomp and it still happens on stock.
Rooted running UnNamed v1.0.1
Bump for some help. This is really annoying

Does this happen when you try to send a message to certain people, or just one person in particular? I wonder if maybe it's a read receipt notifying you that it was delivered? I'm on a custom ROM so I can't check. Try going into messaging, hit menu, then select settings.
Otherwise, maybe it's a carrier issue.
No Trojan this happens when I receive picture messages. From anybody on multiple carriers. May be an at&t issue. I think this happened on my Infuse too but don't remember if I ever resolved it

It happened to me on my Atrix. I found if I ignored it and didn't open it, it actually deleted itself. As far as I can tell, it's related to read receipts. Unnamed Rom doesn't offer the ability to request them and I don't think Stock did either but I also don't use a 3rd party messaging Application. Try turning off Read/Delivery Receipts on your device and see what happens.

From what I have been able to tell, it is a Carrier Issue AND read receipt issue.
Anyone found a fix for it yet?
Happened to me today, we both use GoSMS but I think she has enabled delivery receipt.
did you happened to fix it?
I love how people are complaining that this was brought up again in another thread, which in fact led it to being locked even though there is no answer on this board. It is really annoying getting those messages. I have searched "blank anonymous", "blank message", and just "anonymous". Only two threads come up that are related to this issue. This one, and the one that was just locked. So if anyone truly has an answer to this issue and doesn't worry about trying to look cool by insulting users, please provide the answer, or at least point us in the right direction.
Thanks
I found a way that worked for my phone. I'm using ChompSMS and I would always get those and they would keep popping up.
All I had to do was open Chomp settings > SMS & MMS Network > MMS Network Settings > set "auto retrieve" to UNCHECKED.
I cant confirm that this will work (especially if you dont use Chomp as default), but it did work well for me. Good Luck

I've tried that. It doesn't do anything. Once I download the mms I'll get the anonymous message.
I've had this issue when I was on my Captivate. I tried flashed a few different ROMs and even went back to stock and the issue was still there. It was one of the reasons why I upgraded to the GS2 before my contract expired. However, the issue appeared on the new phone. The real problem was that my SIM card was messed up. Once they replaced my SIM card, everything was working fine again.

SpeedROM wifi mms problems

I know that you guys are going to tell me to search through the thread. I'm actually not a noob I just lurk a lot.
I flashed SpeedROM 4.0 and now I am unable to send mms messages (redundant) while I'm connected to my WiFi. I searched all over that thread to find a fix and all I came up with was to install Android 4 ICS Messaging SMS over the Play Store. tried it. it came up with an error "Duplicate Provider Authority" Any help?
I also found out that there's no notification of messages on the lock screen nor does it chime/vibrate/notify when you receive a message from an unknown number

It's a general problem with the amaze on ICS, it's widespread, so don't expect a fix anytime soon.
It never happened on the stock ics with sense 3.6. If I knew how to do all of this stuff I would help. My best guess is that the answer is in the stock ics ROM. I have my stock backup if anyone needs it for study

Do a battery pull... That will drop all the power out of the phones radios and force them to reset. Thus fixing mms hopefully

I tried that already. I actually know all of the basic trouble shooting steps. my last two theories are either the coding for the room is just wrong or I need to flash the kernal which I have nO clue how to do

You do realise I'm on stock ICS right? If you read the wifi thread that's in this very sub forum, you'd see it's not just me that has the issue, many members here as well, go over to tmo's forum and check the ICS bug list thread, you'll see a damn long list of others there as well.

my guess is on the kernel needing to be flashed/reflashed for the mms/wifi thing. as to the other issues, no clue. have you tried running stock ics yet?
Yeah I had stock ics for a while before I switched. I don't know how to flash the kernal though. Honestly if I knew how, I'd just put stock ics mms.apk in the.zip but I tried that already and it canceled the install. Don't know how to do that either
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA
Just reflashed the kernel, same problems still exists. I'm confused now as to what to do.

"Duplicate Provider Authority" means that you are trying to install something that the phone already has system flags dedicated for(this explanation could be a little better).. Speedrom already has the MMS app, use a root tool, titanium backup - something to remove mms.apk from the system/app folder, then you will be able to install the one in the market -- not that that is a sure fire fix.. but one thing at a time. Try that, that is the only reason you couldn't install.

Text Messages Show Up As Wrong Contact Name

Anyone experience this? My gf will text on her LGOG and when she receives text the wrong name pops up but under the #info it shows the right names #. You think having her contacts transfered over from her iPhone to her Android at at&t is causing a problem.

I had this happen a couple of times after flashing new ROMs. It seemed to fix itself after a couple of reboots.

I had this happen when I had the same number saved under 2 different names. I'm not sure how it happened, if this is the problem just delete the wrong one and it should fix itself.

My wife is seeing the same problem on her phone. She will send a text to somebody but the reply will say it is somebody else. Rebooting the phone then assigns the message to the correct person. We have already checked the contacts to see if there was any duplicate info, but that is not the issue. Might just run a custom rom and hope that fixes the problem.

can't be of much help but I can say it's happened to me on custom roms. really curious about this. clean reflash seemed to fix it.

I thought about going that route, but ended up just flashing Vanilla RootBox on it instead. Haven't had the problem on that rom. Now just the occasional reboot.
I had this problem this morning received text from my wife under my coworkers contact info as though it came from him. When I replied back under his contact info she received the reply. Very frustrating. He hasn't replied to any of my text this morning. May not be receiving them.

receiving sms messages from the future

i've been having a weird problem with my sms messages. when i look at the details for a certain message, the sent and received timestamps are off by an hour. the received timestamp is correct. the sent timestamp is in the future. it's like this with google hangouts and the stock messaging app. attached is a screenshot of the message details in google hangouts.
has anyone else seen something like this before? any ideas what's causing it and how to fix it? it's not a big deal. just something weird that i'd like to figure out.
i have twrp 2.8.7.0 and am running jasmine 4.0 with the skydragon v0.3.0.2 kernel.
I'm using Verizon Message+, and apparently it doesn't show sent time anywhere. Without me having to change what my default messaging app is, I was thinking that the "Sent date" is only displayed as part of a tweak in G3TweaksBox. Is that correct and is that what you're using to enable that? I don't know if that could cause this issue. Also, does the sender happen to be in a different timezone than you?
Just speculating...

i'm not using G3TweaksBox. i didn't do anything special to enable seeing the sent timestamp. i've always been able to see the message details, which include the sent and received timestamps, by long pressing a message and selecting the details option. most of the people i text with are in the same time zone as me, but i'm still seeing the different times.
anyway, it's not a big deal. i'm curious to see if anyone else has encountered this and knows of a reason or fix.
