For the life of me I can't figure this out. I installed Handscent on my Thunderbolt and now it is sending the same text 2 - 3 times. I've tried uninstalling, clearing data, clearing cache and nothing works. I disabled every notification on the standard messaging app but it just keeps doing it.
Anyone have any ideas?
No ideas, but you're not alone...
I just want to bump this and say that it is happening with GoSMS and the stock messaging app as well. I wonder if it's the network.
I had to do clear data in messaging app in Manage Applications menu. Just make sure there are no messages you want to keep because you will lose them.
Had the same issue. I called Verizon to report it. I rebooted and have not had any issues. Well none that I know of. Not sure if it was the network or my phone.
Yeah nothing is working. Using stock app and cleared data, still doing it. I'm beginning to think it has to do with the DasBAMF Rom because it didn't happen until I started using the rom.
Give it a day... its more than likely the network and not the ROM... ive used many different ROMs on my D1 and this problem would come and go from time to time... often without even changing ROMs.... give it 24 hours, if it doesnt stop, try a new ROM then, dont give up on it so fast.
This was happening to me about two weeks ago. It worked itself out.
Have you guys tried freezing the old msging app?
it's happening on my stock TB...pretty sure it's just the network considering my blackberry used to do this as well.
i rooted my HTC TB. now the phone indicates i have two sms/mms messages. trouble is i dont see that i have any messages. i checked the various folders where they might possibly be, i powered on/off, powered down and removed battery and sim, and still the message bubbles indicate two messages.
any thoughts?
thanks

That happened to me even before I rooted. It still happens sometimes, but eventually goes away on its own. You still having a problem?
issue resolved, i received some text messages today. deleted them and now everything is as it should be. kind of weird.
thinking about it... i did have a few unread t-messages prior to rooting. thinking somehow that was preserved in memory.

VZW and HTC are releasing an update that helps fix an issue like this (As well as GPS, etc). Currently, sometimes the messages are improperly stored in the Messaging application, causing problems like this.
The rollout for this update started yesterday.
Hi everyone I posted this on my roms page but I thought I would branch out and ask others if they have seen anything like my problem. It seems my phone hates my brother or at least his phone number. Every time he calls me or I call him I get the error process.acore has stopped unexpectedly problem, force close. I tried to clear the phone app but no go. The problem has occurred on two separate roms, fresh installs over a two week period? Of course the phone stops working and I get frustrated. Thought it was a dirty download so I tried Flips newest creation and sure enough after I have it set up enough to do a nandroid make the back up then about the time I make a few phone calls it starts kicking our the error android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly problem, force close.(just found it was only my brothers phone number) I am on TWRP 2.0 for my current recovery.
Oh thanks everyone for any ideas,
I'm on 1.4 hboot, baseband 0.97.10.0808, PRI 1.24.003, PRL 21083, Android version 2.3.4 & Sense 3.0 currently....boot ready to SVN back to most recent Warm nightly.
Ok now it gets really weird, I just realized it's my brothers phone that causes the issue? What the f?I called many different phone numbers even a Miami area code like his....it has happened on two different fresh installs of two different Roms. I did clear the data on the phone app but should I completely delete his contact and then allow google to sync? It seems I basically already did that with the installs of the different roms? Any ideas WHAT COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE THIS? Very weird.
Thanks again because I have no clue

Ok so I reprovisioned the phone and still the same problem. It varies as to which phone contact causes the force close issue. Going to try and delete contacts although I doubt it does any good.
Anyone, Buehler, Anyone?
The same thing is happening to me on my 3d and i haven't rooted it yet. I will turn on the phone and everything will crash. I don't think it has to do with the rom but maybe a phone defect. I would say unroot and see if the problem still occurs if it does bring it back to sprint. They have a warranty for stuff like this.
TWRP 2 is really buggy, try flashing through cwm or twrp 1.1.1

Ok, so I've been having some super odd problems with my GS3 that I've sort of narrowed down.
When plugging into a PC (to charge or copy files) I'll lose any and all sound, even after a reboot. Usually a power off/on will fix it, or I might have to pull the battery.
Also, sometimes it will start to freeze up. It will be butter smooth for a few seconds, then freeze for 3-5 seconds. Usually recording all of my touches, and then quickly doing them all when it un-freezes. This I usually can NOT get to stop without pulling the battery, and even then it might do it again. Sometimes after I unplug from the PC, and I get a notification for a text, it won't play the sound, and sit there and vibrate continuous for 5-10 seconds. Then the freezing will start.
The freezing comes and goes, but usually gets started shortly after I've been plugged into the PC. I've also seen the MTP app start, and freeze.
It did this stock. Now I've completely wiped and flashed Omega, and a Abyss kernel. Its still doing it. The sound always goes out, but the freezing seems to have subsided a bit. I did wipe my app backups, do new ones, and restore those.
Does this sound like a hardware issue, or software? I can't find ANY apps that are locking up/sucking up CPU time. What app could be causing something like this? Apex? Liteflow? I am having problems with Apex, where a few times a day when going back to the home screen it will stop working, and show a black screen till it loads. Its not the phone itself, notification bar still works and everything else works, but Apex just blacks out until reloading.
I did root when I got the phone, and restored my apps (apps ONLY) from a backup made with my HTC One X. I'm still using those apps/app data.
One more thing, I can safely say I only started having issue after I flashed my first .zip in recovery. It was for the Camera mod, someone had made a flashable .zip file. After I flashed that, the phone went crazy. No sound, locking up, nothing worked, and it took several reboots for it to settle down and start working.
None of this happens when plugging into power only, just a PC.
Ideas?
EDIT:
Ok, I'm pretty certain this problem is started by a notification. It only seems to start happening if I get a notification, and it will do the crazy 10 second vibration, followed by no sound, and freezing.
Also even when its working normally, everytime I get a notification I have odd problems. Maybe a stutter, sometimes the keyboard closes, etc.
Today it started shutting off by itself.
EDIT 2:
I have a new phone on the way from Negri. I'm returning this one to let them deal with the RMA to Samsung.
Try resetting your phone and then try again.
Ok, I've removed Apex for the time being, no different. Also, its doing it now without having plugged it into USB, so thats not it. Doing it right now actually. No sound, and freezing. I noticed it exactly happend while I was in the camera app, and a notification came through.
I don't understand, I wiped when I installed Omega??
EDIT: And just sitting there for awhile, its fine again. Didn't restart it at all, just let it sit for a few minutes.
And now, I'm using the camera again and it happened. Can this have something to do with the camera mod?
I'm going to subscribe to this thread. I'm also experiencing the same problems as you, because of this I'm going to re-flash Stock Firmware and see if the problem persists, because it could be due to a bad flash of the Software.
My thread can be found here on XDA. Please alert me if you find a fix, will do the same for you

Yeah your having the EXACT same issue. Mine won't always do the 6 second vibration for a text though. (has done it a few times)
What worries me is that I *have* wiped, and reflashed a ROM. So any software problem should be gone.
I'm going to do a hard reset tonight (wipe everything) and reflash the latest Omega. I'm not going to restore my TB backup either. We'll see what happens.

How do you do a hard reset? I have yet to flash my firmware yet, it still has 17 minutes on the download ticker, so I might do a hard reset and then install the firmware like yourself.
Also, I've noticed that due to this issue, I don't always receive notification sounds when the screen is off. Interestingly mine does not seem to be affected on USB, I've never had a problem with that and have synced with Kies many times. What was your battery level when this problem occurred?

Well today it started happening while using the camera and a notification came through. It hasn't been plugged into USB at all. Its happened at all different battery levels.
I think I'm going to download and flash a stock firmware and try that for awhile. I'll hard reset first.

Alright tell me how it goes. Mine has been going on for a few days now, however it only started happening today after the battery got below 50% so I thought maybe it was associated with that.
Thanks for the link!
Ok here is what I did:
Hard reset using the method listed above
Flashed the latest firmware w/Odin - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
Hard reset again
Enter my Gmail account, *no* apps restored
Lets see what happens. I'm *not* going to do a restore w/Titanium backup until I'm satisfied its fixed. (And then I will probably just unlock/flash recovery, and flash the latest Omega ROM)

I did the exact same process, and I'm not going to be backing up at all! Thought I had broken my phone at first as it wouldn't pick up any reception, turns out the mast down the road had rebooted
Must say, seems snappier already, probably a placebo effect though
Ok, I've used the camera, plugged it into the PC... done some other stuff. I'll use it for awhile tonight and get some notifications and see what happens.
So far so good.

Same here, all seems good
All good for me as well. Trying to do everything with the phone, even posting this on the browser. The stock apps are killing me though...
But very snappy, and no issues.

My phone is definitely much faster, even the home screen isn't drawing my widgets every single time I go to it! My theory is it was just a bad factory flash, the first time I flashed back with Odin my Messages app kept force closing so I glad to re-flash again. I'll keep you posted if problems crop up again.

Everything was great, so I decided to root and do a TB restore. Things were still perfectly smooth, then I got a text and had the 6 second vibration, and lost sound. Had to restart. Never froze though.
Awesome.
EDIT:
Ok, after the reboot, the sound worked one time for the unlock screen, then went back out. And the phone froze.

Hmm, I've glad several notifications and haven't put my phone done since the re-flash and I've had absolutely no problems whatsoever. All I can suggest is that possibly the restore that you did has installed the bad files? I did a bit of research and apparently Odin will not wipe old files off your phone that it doesn't need to, but a factory restore will.. guess this fits in with the problem you have had if it was a bad factory flash that was causing this problem in the first place.

My TB restore is not a factory restore, all its doing is restoring apps+data. No system data at all.
The phone right now has no sound, and is pretty much unusable.

My bad, getting Nandroid and TB back ups mixed up! I don't really know what to suggest now, apart from the fact that I would imagine its directly linked to the restore you've done, as it was only after you did this the problems persisted and that back up comes from a system that also had that problem? I fixed the sound by removing my battery, or sometimes it worked by putting it on charge. Either way, maybe its best to just start again for you rather than installing a back up?

Yeah, I already did another hard reset. This time I let Google restore my apps. (right from the market, no data)
So far its ok, but to early to tell...
Ever since I got my first Android device (Galaxy Nexus) I had the problem that Gmail and Google Talk just often won't notify me about new messages. It works fine sometimes but often there is a delay between a few seconds and several hours until it finally notifies me (if at all that is).
It's basically freaking useless. I just can't rely on it so I end up checking for messages and mail manually every few minutes.
Things that don't affect the problem:
Device and Android Version. Plenty of people reported this problem and it's just not limited to one device or version.
If the screen is turned off or not. It even stops working while Talk is open (not in the background).
How the phone connects to the internet. At home it's using the same connection as my PC, while it just won't notify me of an new e-mail the Talk client on the PC manages it without problems.
ROM/Kernel don't seem matter either. Also did plenty of factory resets.
All I can find are old and/or unanswered threads.
Like those:

I'd have ditched Android by now if there would be a good alternative. But it's either Android, iOS or Windows Phone...
Sign out of google talk and gmail.do a battery pull, then a factory reset, then try again.

I don't really get how this could help. Don't feel like doing yet another reset unless it could really have an effect.

ROM and Kernel don't seem to matter. That includes for example stock, Cyanogen and franco kernel.
Did a factory reset like 100 times before, just this time logged out first. Didn't help, how unexpected.
Another option, contact sprint, have them do a. Profile refresh. Also update ur prl twice. Now that I think about, it could be a slight network issue in connection with ur device (hard to explain)

I'm in Europe. No sprint here.
I'll replace my Nexus with an S III today. Guess I'm about to find out if it's affected too.
Will probably be hard to do any further tests with the Nexus because my SIM is going to have a little meeting with a scissor.
Didn't get too many messages yet but some of them were definitely several minutes late. Guess the S III is affected too. Just great.
Am I the only person with this problem?
Still happening and renders the phone mostly useless.
At least some ideas on how to pinpoint the problem?
