SMS bug ??

Hi, I have experienced some strange sms problems with my htc tp2. I heard people talk about an sms bug, but I don't know if this is the same thing...
Aparently, my tp2 sends the same messages over and over to some persons. So if I send a new sms, he just sends the same message every time... The problem appears to be selective. I mean, only some of my friends get the same sms over and over from me, others don't.
The problem seemed to be gone when deleting al sms history of that person, but now, it just started again...
It's really annoying, as I don't know if people get my sms'es or not :s
plz help if you can! I would appreciate it!
grtz
Nobody? Could it be PIM backup that messes up my sms'es?
I noticed that if I delete the sms history of the person before sending a new sms, it works fine...
The strange thing is, it's always the same sms. Every time I sent an sms, without deleting the history, he sends the same message... :s
plz help!
Could it be that the message gets stuck in the outbox and the device is attempting to re-send it?
Im not 100% on this.
But im pretty sure its something to do with the service provider. Ive had this problem on many devices, from many manufacturers, on many service plans.
But like i said, not 100% sure. So dont hold me to it
The strange thing is that it's just some of my contacts who experience the problem...

[Q] Messaging problems

I had created groups within my Google contacts to better organize them. One group I had was "Co-Workers". I later decided to eliminate that group.
I then started noticing that every time I reply to a text from one of the people that was originally in the Co-Workers group, it would send it to EVERYONE that was in the group - about 15 people. However, if I start a new message to that person instead of just replying it only goes to him and no one else.
Is there something else that needs to be cleared such as a cache I'm not aware of? Again, the group was eliminated from within Google. I originally had Handcent and thinking that that may be the problem, I eliminated it and am just using the stock messaging. This is very annoying because I start receiving messages from all of these other people wanting to know what I'm talking about. PLEASE HELP!

[Q] [HELP]Duplicate texts showing up

Hi all
I'm having a problem with receiving duplicate text messages on my evo. I searched around the forums to see if anybody else was reporting the same problem and I didn't find any threads that seemed to match my issue, though it's possible i've missed some (The search on this site, i've found, is not particularly good).
Please note that this is NOT a notification problem where i'm getting notifications from Handcent and the Stock app. This is literally two identical text messages appearing in HandCent (and stock when I look at it), usually one right after the other.
I have an Evo 4G running EvolvedRom 2.3.3 from June (with the update released in July installed), using Handcent for texts (latest updates). I'd say it started happening about a month ago, although it could be longer, and has been progressively getting worse as time goes by. It's at the point now where 90% of the messages I receive are duplicated, including MMS.
The phones sending the messages include other Evos, Epic 4G, Android phones on Verizon, iPhones on AT&T, featurephones, and I think a blackberry (not sure carrier). Good Voice texts that forward to my phones SMS also duplicate.
I've tried to include as much possibly relevant information as I could think of. I'm trying to avoid having to do a hard reset, but if that's the only solution so be it.
If anybody also has this or has any ideas for a solution, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

[Q] How do I stop SMS text notifications?

I've been trying to find a solution having searched all over and only seeing posts related to a couple 3rd party SMS apps I don't use and google voice which I don't use. This began to happen with CM7 (I'd post in it's thread but can't because I don't have 10 posts yet). Even though I backed up the voicemail app from stock ROM and restored to CM7 and it is working and retrieves my voicemails. On all previous custom ROMs this didn't happen. So I don't know why it is now and would like to stop the SMS messages since the one notification from the voicemail app is enough. The most recent thread is old enough it didn't make sense to resurrect it so I figured a new thread was better. Not much detail in the thread. So I don't even know if any of the replies were actual solutions or just guesses.

[Q] Stock Google Messaging App and iPhone Group Messages

Let me preface this by saying that I'm not sure if this is a ROM issue or a general issue so I'm posting in both locations to get more coverage.
I've been running Newt's GPE ROM for a while now with very few problems and am very satisfied. However, today I received what I believe is a group message from several iPhones that my friends own. Only one of the messages actually got through, the rest just show delivery reports and empty messages. I am able to get messages from single iPhones and am also fairly sure I can do group messaging with several other android devices.
I'm using the Google default messaging app, and have allowed group message SMS. Any insight as to what is going on?
