I upgraded to XXLPQ (polish) from XXLPH yesterday.
I'm now seeing duplicate (2, somebody said 3) SMS's sent to a recipient for each one I send.
Received texts aren't duplicated
Only goSMS (or handcent) is set to notify
"stock" SMS app does NOT lead to duplicates
This didn't happen in XXLPH
Wanted to check if anyone else has this issue? Next step is probably clearing SMS data or indeed a full wipe
I got the same situation here. Everything Ok with stock messaging, but with Go Sms Pro, it duplicate sms >.< Looking for solution !!
Yep, same here, though i updated from gingerbread not from an ics beta.

Same here, guess its an App issue then?

It seems more likely to be an issue with the firmware. As it affects all 3rd party SMS apps. Pretty sure there aren't issues on the nexus so possible not a general ics issue?

I have the same issue but I'm also not getting contact pictures in any third party apps.. not in Go contacts, Go SMS, Handcent, Whatsapp.
Tried them all and I get nowt but the stock app gets the pictures perfectly. I've removed and re-added accounts a number of times but giving up now unless someone knows of a way around it.
Same problem
I'm also getting the same problem.
Did a full wipe before installing the ROM
Did not restore settings for go sms, but did restore my messages
I have also tried freezing messaging in titanium backup and disabling messaging in the settings. Neither seams to work.
Has anyone had any success with fixing this?
I am also facing this problem. First i thought this might be due to GO Sms . I uninstalled GO SMS and installed Handcent_SMS .. Same problem there
Sending duplicate messages (GO SMS and Handcent)
Not showing contact pictures in messages list (GO SMS and Handcent)
Anyone got the solution ???
Not sure, seems strange!
Possibly a Firmware issue, maybe a App issue
We shall see what other ssay!
same problem here
report the issue to the devs
did so for handset via email [email protected]
supply phone info
software info
and if possible logcat
Chainfire Kernel not to blame
I still have the problem after reverting to the stock kernel (3.0.15-I900XXLPQ-CL223505 [email protected] #3)
I was hoping that reverting back to stock kernel would fix it, but that is sadly not the case.
At least we know that it's not the chainfire kernel causing it
Same problem here (with Go SMS and browsertexting).
I have emailed both devs, I would suggest everyone sending emails to the app devs to hurry things along
Strikes me as something that has changed within the firmware from Samsung,
Gingerbread Roms (Official and cooked) never caused the issue for me whilst using Go SMS its like something within the ICS firmware is refusing third part apps access to the facebook contact photos.. or maybe its something within the Facebook app that's blocking third party stuff.
default sms app is giving me issues with sms ringtones not working
Hey all,
I updated to I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar
and getting the same, default messaging app is fine, but when I have any other messaging app installed all my messages are being sent twice. I have tested this with Go SMS and Handcent, so to me sounds more like a Samsung problem.
Back to using the default app for the moment so...

No point in doing that. As this happen with all 3rd party messaging app, it is clearly a firmware issue.
It's definitely not an ICS issue otherwise the GNexus would be affected as well.

It's definitely a firmware issue but app devs maybe able to fix or work around the issue faster then it takes Samsung to correct it. Can't hurt
Pretty big bug for Samsung to cause between previous leak and LPQ and not notice
Do we have any contacts at Samsung we can report this to? Maybe someone can contact the great CyanogenMod creator who now works at Samsung to put in a small word lol

Hi everybody!
I'm also affected by the double sms bug.
I also tried to freeze the stock messaging app with titanium, BUT, now, I can't unfreeze it... have someone the same problem? have someone a solution?
titanium tell the app have been unfreeze, but it don't. I've tried several unfreezing app, with no more success.
If there's no solution, can i flash again LPQ with Odin to resolve this mess?
Thank you!
What Rom's are we all using?
Am i right in thinking there is more than one regional variation of ICS out at the moment? Does it happen on all variations or just one?
ROM: WanamLite 9.3
Network: O2-UK
App: GOSMS
Hi, This is my first post and i need help, I was texting with my new phone (SGS3) in the stock messaging app, and i wrote an SMS (4 Pages) and suddenly the SMS was automatically converted to MMS, and there is no option to disable this horrible and ridiculous feature, and theres also no option to turn it off! So how can this be possible? Such an expenssive phone, and you cant even write freely an SMS??? Why is there a limit of 3 pages? I was wondering if someone could do a MOD to fix this! I had the same problem with the galaxy note, and there was a little mod that could fix that, so i think im not the only one that want this fixed! (i dont like custom ROMS or anything like that, and i dont like apps like GoSMS, or stuff like that, i just like the stock messaging app, but with the fix) i just want PLEASE a little mod to fix this BIG problem. (Sorry for my english)
Sms are limited to 160 characters. Otherwise it has to be sent as an Mms.

Thats not what i asked for, i mean.. im coming from an iphone 4s and that never happened, in fact it never happened to me in all the phones i have had!! So, i dont see the point of converting an SMS automatically to MMS just because i write more than 3 pages, thats just ridiculous But the thing is, that i would like to know if someone could do a MOD for the stock messaging app to fix that and make it without characters restrictions! To explain it better this is what i want for my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371755
no one texts anymore, use whatsapp or some sort of instant messaging

i'm pretty sure that's not how it works, SMS longer than 160 characters get sent as multiple SMS which then then recombined back into one sms on the recipients phone. I've had the issue before when one part of a multi SMS message was delayed causing me to have the first or second half only and when the other one arrived sometime later the phone still knew to combined them together.
MMS is only when you attach a picture, video or voice clip to the message.
I have just tested what the OP has said and its true, if you type a long SMS, after the 3rd set of 260 characters, (there is a counter just above the send icon) it then gets converted to a MMS
But to the OP, I do wonder why you would want to type such a long SMS on a regular basis? you can also just send the sms at 3 pages then send a new one.
Can't you just send after every two pages. Yeah, it cost more but it will solve your issue.

Sms are limited to 160 characters (Per Page), And when you write more than 3 Pages, it will automatically convert your SMS to MMS without asking or option to disable, it will just convert it to MMS. (it will convert it even if you dont attach ANYTHING, Even if it just based on text)
Use Go sms... But this is stupid...
S3 shouldn't do that...
Lol at the Wattsapp suggestions

Wow I just realised that there is no option to cancel this 'feature' after I read your thread.
I do hope this is resolved since for those on Payandgo networks, like me, MMS isn't always free whereas practically even mobile plan has free SMS. Defeats the objective here, you can send very long SMS texts (counts as more than 1 but still sends fine) from other phones no problem. On the galaxy nexus it was possible to disable this SMStoMMS converting problem easily, I hope the devs come up with a workaround..

Who still has data rates for SMS and MMS? I thought this stuff was free now? In Australia SMS for free is pretty much standard and most plans have at least $500 of credit included, an MMS costs max 0.50c, is this seriously an issue? Just use a different messegeing ap or use an instant messenger.

Guys, am I right in saying that this was always a problem with stock messaging app? Hence most custom ROMs have a modded 'No MMS convert' message app? I remember this limitation on my stock SGS2 back in the day - dont remember this ever happening to me after custom roms.... or maybe I never sent over 3 pages.......
I just tried Texting over 311 characters from my SGS2 to my SGS3 and them back..........No MMS converting.... One whole page too....
Therefore this is not a problem with custom ROMs...

The issue is just with the stock messaging app in Stock firmwares (with no custom ROMS) i dont like custom roms, thats why i need a mod to fix this! ***custom roms doesnt have this problems because they fix it***
SMS is for short messages.
If you are writing a book use email

You can install gosms which have more options to configure or install the mod to deactivate that problem...

Try using Handcent SMS app. It has that specific option to prevent auto converting to MMS.

Hi All
I have searched and read numerous forums posts regarding problems with MMS sending failing, all seem to point to APN settings being the cause. However, I find that unless i have a Samsung based ROM installed, whenever I try and send or open received MMS messages, the messaging application crashes and no matter what i've done, ROMS i've tried I get the same result! any CM based kernels cause it - CM9 has always done it, and the AOKP based roms using CM9 kernels as well.
Can anyone shed any light on this? Really want to get off the horrible clunky Samsung ROMS but use MMS a lot!
Agreed. I deleted all APNs and installed fresh settings from network providers website, no joy. I gave up and use whatsapp for pics. Never looked back. I'm paying for data so why not use some for pics. Hope you find a fix soon.

Try to reboot twice.. If that doesnt work you're going to have to find the apn settings and input them manually.
Try Slim ICS ROM it;s the complete opposite to clunky!
It's a really nice ROM with lots of features and is fast and smooth
I've been using it for about 8 weeks now and think I'll stick with it, so far no problems with anything at all, no FC no errors. And MMS works perfectly

Stop using MMS. There's much better, free alternatives, such as email.
I also am unable to send MMS using Swiss Orange Me Pre-pay sim. I am running Resurrection Rom 2.6.1 and Siyah Kernel 4.0.1. All attempts to add APN setting manually, reboot and clear cache and Dalvik cache and fix permissions have not solved the problem. I have changed from Kernel 3.5.2 to 4.0.1 and still no luck. I obtained correct APN settings from the Orange shop and the staff member commented that the Kernel may not be completely compatible with the network. Could this be the answer? Or is it something to do with the Rom build itself? Has anyone got the same problem on the same setup on a different network? I am aware that trying another Rom or Kernel or Sim card may solve the problem. I'm happy with my setup and send pics using email instead as I have unlimited data. I would like to know if this is a common problem.

Whilst I may use email etc, there are still times when MMS is useful, and for people not quite a tech savvy. It's also a basic feature of a mobile phone!
I am surprised that no seems to know the answer here - surely others experience this?
Just to confirm - I have tried multiple modems/kernels/roms, permission fixes etc, and rebooting multiple times. Even re-partitioning in ODIN! I have tried getting the settings sent from O2, requesting through SIM, and enetering manually; rebooting several times when rom is installed etc. Nothing seems to fix it except a samsung ROM?

If I get your question right, this is your problem:
'Only Samsung based Roms allow you to send mms successfully'
Try this solution:
- you will have to ensure mms settings is present under APN settings. Confirm if it's correct for your network provider.
If it's not correct, you will have to find it and enter it manually because Aosp messaging app cannot save configuration messages unlike Samsung messaging app.
- Reboot your device you manually added your mms settings (if not, skip this step).
- If messaging app still crash while sending mms, then use another messaging app, I recommend Gosms. It can allow you to manually link your mms settings.
Your problem should be solved now.
Please correct me if I missed anything
Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII
I've searched Google and these forums and still don't have an answer. I keep getting pop-ups from Textra saying that it can't receive MMS. I reset my phone, I've re-typed all the APN settings, including the default ones found here. I've searched for ATT size limits, etc., and still I can't receive pictures. Does anybody have a solution? I'm rooted and on Android Revolution ROM, but these issues persisted even before both of these things.

Only other things I can think of that may cause this are, did you come to the M8 from an iphone or have you put your SIM in an iphone recently and have you had the same issues on bone stock 4.4.4, 4.4.2, or 5.02 roms. May want to try RUU to stock if not.
I've been using the default messaging app with my v60 and I actually love it. Up until a few days ago rcs was working perfectly with it and then it just stopped working. No read reports no typing indicators ..nothing. just wondering if anyone knows how I can fix this issue and get rcs working agian as I would prefer to keep using the stock messaging app. I already tried wiping cache and data for the app. Any help/ideas are appreciated

For some reason RCS has never worked in the stock app for my wife and I ever since we switched to TMobile. It works in Google messages, but never the stock app. And after today's announcement that T-Mobile was rolling out universal profile, I tried it again and it still doesn't work

That is strange. Although, I'm having a weird problem where mms doesn't even work at all on the stock app, but it works fine on Google messages or any other 3rd party apps. Which sucks because I like the stock app but I can't use it since I can't send or receive pics or group messages. T-Mobile literally had to open a trouble ticket in my account and are trying to figure it out

Maybe it has something to do with TMobile agreement with Google regarding RCS.

I would have thought that could be it, and maybe it is, but I've had the phone for well over a month and it hasn't worked from day one. Supposedly T-Mobile is going to contact me on Tuesday after the "engineer's look at the provisioning" on my account
Aaaaaand just like that, RCS is working again for me in stock messaging app wtf?
