Orange UK Push Email Delay

Folks,
Have two providers Orange (UK) and T-Mobile (UK). For both of these I have two seperate push email accounts with Getztek.com. This service is great however, I always notice that email pushed through t-mobile arrives within 8 seconds of being sent. It is not the same though for the Orange phone. Mail arrives at various times and is almost always around the 1.5 to 2 minutes. It just bugs me why from the same email provider Getztek sends both emails and yet one comes quick and the other later.
Anyone else notice this and any help to getting the Orange up to the speed of the t-mobile. Thanks all for taking the time to read this

Gmail forwarding delays anyone?

I've noticed that my gmail pushing has gotten worse over today. Earlier today there was a 10min delay between the email hitting my gmail and getting forwarded to my phone. Now an email just took 1h 10mins to reach me. I know this because i sent it to myself from another account and checked it was received and sitting in my inbox via my computer.
Anyone else having any issues today?

YES! I thought it was just me but I guess it's the server issue or something. This afternoon my email gets pushed in about 7-10 minutes (and I did enable the autosyncing)

Ok. Morning over here in England. Tested it again. Delay is down to a reasonable 2 mins.
How's yours doing?

SMS delay/not retrieving :(

Hey guys,
Picked up a desire yesterday and its great, though I'm having some issues with sms. I notice I don't receive any texts until I send a text first, then I'll receive 2 or 3 texts, timestamped in the past, up to an hour ago!
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.
edit: unrooted on o2

i get a similar problem, i know i should have received a text message but it doeant show up for hours.
unrooted on tmobile uk

Most likely when your phone is connected over GPRS the text don't come through till you disconnect, used to happen on my N95.

So if my phone is operating in GPRS mode, until it decides it doesn't need the internet anymore and disconnects, it won't retrieve texts... right. So any workarounds or fixes for this?

Prety much, after I use GPRS I just made a call and during or after the call my text came in.

Been getting this all day, are people really just dealing with this or is it only a few people that have this issue?

I am having another problem... on T-mobile, my phone won't download MMS messages. It will just say Download error, General Network Failure... After it expired (3days) , I was sent a link to the T-mobile website, where I am able to see it for 14 days.
Another problem that I am having, the phone is struggling sending long text messages... 4 or 5 normal lenght messages 500-600 characters... I am using the Text App provided with the phone.

I have a problem that I dont think is an actual problem I think its just how the phone works, and tbh its a bit rubbish.
If you dont have signal when you hit send (im my office at work I only get signal on a little square of the desk) the phone says "message not sent". Sometime when it gets signal it will send the message, but if it doesnt get signal quick enough it seems to just give up sending.... a bit lame really....
I'm going to post a message up with the T-mobile UK MMS settings so people in future can find it on search. Have a look in 5 mins.
JAmes.

I've got the same issue with my HTC Desire.
My operator is a Belgium one, namely Mobistar.
I've got the impression that when i open the sms box, i start seeing the messages. Don't know if it's the communication that goes wrong, or the 'throughput' in the phone (screen, alerting...).

After installing (and using of course) chompSMS, this problem is gone... yipppie...

[Q] MMS over WiFi Calling = Insufficient Prepaid Balance?

I've recently been having an issue with the WiFi Calling feature when attempting to send/receive MMS. I figured out that it is not ROM related. It is T-Mobile related. Has anybody else had issues sending MMS over their WiFi Calling as of late?
I receive an automated text from T-Mobile instantly after the MMS sends. It says "Your MMS message to 1********** could not be delivered. Insuffcient Prepaid balance."
I've not once had this problem before on the $30 Unlimited Text/Data with 100 Minutes plan. MMS sends fine over 4G but not WiFi Calling. It has only started recently. If anybody can shed some light regarding this issue, and maybe test it out themselves that would be appreciated. Thanks.

Haven't seen that one and I was sending MMS over wifi last night at home. Did this just start for you or has it always been that way? The one thing I've seen is I'm unable to send SMS to short numbers. Get some weird message about it's not enabled which is odd since I have unlimited everything. I'll dig more for both of these and let you know what I find.

Thanks for replying. But actually, I just tried attempting it again right now and it's working.
Must have been a temporary issue on T-Mobile's side. Kind of a weird one actually. I appreciate you replying :highfive:. I hope you find a solution to your problem.

Having massive issues with SMS and MMS

So I switched from Sprint to T-Mobile about 2 months ago...
Ever since I switched, I have been having massive issues.
The first issue happened while on the stock ROM 3 weeks in. For 2 hours, my phone didnt ring or receive any texts. When I made a phone call after those 2 hours, I got a dozen texts in and a few voicemails all in the span of 1 minute. My friends had been trying to call and SMS me for those 2 hours and my phone only received them when I "woke" it up with that phone call.
Then last Friday, I had 3 different people tell me they had SMS'd me and I hadn't received those texts.
Then today, I sent a simple MMS text to about 20 people wishing them happy Thanksgiving. Everyone on T-Mobile got them. On AT&T and Verizon phones, most of my friends got blank texts. I tried to resend it, but they either received a tiny version of the image or another blank text.
On top of ALL this, I am getting duplicate texts from people randomly.
It can't be the phone, as I had to replace it under insurance a week ago (when i accidentally cracked the screen). And it can't be the ROM, as this has happened to me under stock ROM, DarthStalker, and Wicked.
I called T-Mobile and entered a ticket last night about this. This is a HUGE issue. While I love my phone and the fast data speeds, missing SMS (and phone calls) is a game ender.. On the first night I had this happen, I had a date waiting in my lobby for over an hour thinking I stood her up when I didnt respond to her texts. I've gotten in similar trouble with other missing texts.
Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

I would try clearing the data from the sms mms app data in settings/general/application manager and see if that does anything. You may loose your texts though or you can back them up using helium text backup in the play store. If that doesn't work I would completely remove the sec.Mms.apk and re-install it. I like to use the sec.Mms.apk from the darth rom as it adds in the option for screen on/off notification when a incoming text arrives,

I haven't had serious SMS/MMS issues, except that it's slow and the occasional double message. It has always been that way, no matter what phone or ROM. Some T-mo thing when the data signal is ifffy, maybe their server didn't get a receipt acknowledgement from our devices because of the low signal quality. (My guesstimate anyway). Make sure your APN settings are good.

I agree that it's service issue rather than a problem with the phone itself. For the last three weeks, I've been going back and forth with T-Mobile because suddenly two of my kids and I couldn't send texts or get caller ID on our S3s. And when I first received my Note 3, I didn't receive any mobile data for a week. They've had me swap SIMs, rebooted countless times, had the engineers 'reset the rate plan' a few times, and we're still having problems on one of the S3s. I'm in the NE Illinois region, if that's any help.
