[Q] GO SMS Messages - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Everyone,
I'm kinda worried about a few messages I've received from "[email protected]" within the last few months. The "[email protected]" address suddenly changed one day to "GO SMS TEAM." Please see the screenshot I took of the two messages.
Is someone trying to send me something or do something to my phone? I clicked on the "get it right now" link on the 02/10 message and it said not available or something. I tapped on the second link in the 02/20 message and it took me to some theme page telling me to download it (I didn't).
Can anyone tell me what's going on because I'm getting really freaked out. Has my phone been hacked?
Has anyone received these specific messages in February? If so, could you please post yours?
Help! Thanks.
Daniel

[Q] Force closing of application...could use some help.

I'm hoping someone can shed some light on why this is happening to my vibrant all of a sudden. Quick little history on my phone: samsung vibrant, purchased 8/25, no modding, no rooting, no lag fixes, no nothing, straight out of box...i started getting this message after I sent a few normal yahoo emails out the other night:
Application process com. android.email has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again: dumpstate_app 201010071404_com android email.
Log has been saved. Use *#9900# to copy out log.
When I do the *#9900# it takes me to a few options, none of which I would have any clue about which to pick. Does anyone know what this is, how I can get rid of it? I use the app that came on the phone to access my yahoo email ( the app is the one that has the white envelope with the blue at symbol on it. I have deleted the account and configured again but nothing, I received the force close message again 10 min later. I had one person who tried to help me for hours, poor guy! But I really just want to find whatever it is that's doing this. I installed the offical yahoo app and its been working ok, a little slow, glitchy, freezes a lot, but I'm getting my email without a force close! Thanks to my tmobile friend who suggested the app...i would appreciate if anyone could help me. Thanks so much!
You should look for an email you just received that may be corrupted somehow. If you figure out which one, try to delete the email (online). I got similar messages repeatedly after I created a Google contact on line and it appeared in my phone's contacts. I had left the year off the person's birthdate and apparently there's a bug in the Vibrant such that it chokes and core dumps when it encounters an empty year field. I deleted the contact (on line, because I couldn't get to it on the phone without force closing) and the problem went away.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Go to app manager in settings and try clearing data. Also, as previous post suggests try deleting the email from online server and restart the sync process.
Thank You all! The force close issue is still happening. I've started using the browser to receive my yahoo email. I've done everything you all have suggested and nothing has helped. Thank you all again.

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)/

[Q] Gingerbread Contacts In TM Issue

I apologize if this issue is somewhere in this forum. I've been searching for the better part of an hour and I haven't found anything close, to the issue that I'm having.
Problem: when I send a text message to multiple contacts, for some reason, all of the phone numbers for people in the list, show up as part of the phone number, for the last person on the list from that point forward. For example, suppose that I send a tm to Joe, Mary and Sam. Their phone numbers are 222-222-2222, 333-333-3333 and 999-999-9999, respectively. When I get a reply from Sam (who's the last person on my list of recipients), the msg shows up as being from "222-222-2222;333-333-3333;+1999-999-9999". Note that the +1 has been added only to the last number.
The first time that this happened, I had to delete the contact record for the last person on the list (Sam in this example), turn off the device, restart and manually enter a new contact record. Now that process doesn't work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
bump to the top in hopes that someone has an idea as to what's doing this.

call history / logs

Hi
I've got the samsung s3 4g version but I believe the normal S3 has the same issue. When I go into the call history it shows calls from everyone over the last 30 days or something which is good, but when you click on an individual number it only shows you the history for that specific day.
I used to have a S1 and on that if you clicked a number it would show you the history (calls/sms) for the entire history duration, so you could see you spoke to that person a 3 days and a week ago for e.g.
Is there anyway to get the S3 to do that... ? it seems silly if they took that feature out of the S3 ?
I was looking on google and someone said to get "mr number" I tried that, but that seemed to make it worse and not show me any history (just a list of all the ppl who i spoke to)
If anyone knows howto get the history/logging to do what I need that would be great.
thanks
surely someone else is having the same issue ?
I've got the same problem.
Before I9300 I had Touch HD where I used an Address Book app. There I could click on any number in call history and get the entire history of calls and sms from that contact or number.
But on SGS3 I can only get the history/logs of calls for the contacts that I've written to my contacts: logs(call hystory) - long tap on contact - open contact- menu soft button on the bottom left - journal.
But I've got a lot of calls that are not in my contacts and I don't want to save them and I need to see if that number allready called me.
How can I find it out?
Thanks in advance.

Could not send - SMS Failure message

Hi
Might be missing the obvious here but this is my first Sony Android device. Sometimes my Z2 might have trouble sending an SMS text message and I get the message "could not send" with a red emoticon. With my previous HTC devices, I was able to click on the message and select 're-send' however that option isn't available to me on the Z2. Right now, all I can do is re-type the same message but surly there is an alternative?
Thanks[/I]
Hi
Turns out it was a fault with my phone. I returned the phone to EE and the new phone works fine. To anyone else experiencing this issue, you should have the option to re-send after long clicking on the message.
Would have really appreciated someone helping me out with that.
I had sent like 700 msgs in groups. Very few actually went out and now i have deleted all msgs but cannot get rid of the msgs failedpopping all over my screan.and i can't seem to delete them in any other way. How do i get rid of the not sent and why were they not being sent?
