Not receiving texts - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Weird issue. I'm not receiving texts unless I send one to the person first. I've got one of the original evos from June. I rooted it the long way and ran fresh roms forever and never had issues. Last week I flashed CM and tried every kernel available and the phone was glitchy no matter what. For instance I would lose the ability to turn data on and off after the phone had been running a while. Most kernels also resulted in a bootloop. Then yesterday I lost the ability to send texts, but I was receiving them. So, tried to nand restore my fresh rom and apparently it was corrupted because it never booted, only looped. So, I wiped everything and reflashed fresh and the phone has been running fine again except for the text issue. Again, I only receive them after I have texted someone. Once I've texted them once I receive all future texts normally. Any clues?

Also, I just tried updating the profile and my PRL and was unable to do so. My data connection is working though.

[Q] Need options for odd situation

Okay, so this may get a little long winded. I used to have an incredible but gave it to my GF when I upgraded to my Thunderbolt. I was rooted so I have been flashing the new versions of stock as they were released. She is on the latest build of Gingerbread, and it was working fine since I flashed it. However she has been getting the stupid low disk space error (even though she's got 6 gigs free on both internal and external storage). I am currently away on business for two months, and she needs to get this problem addressed. Well this morning she can no longer receive text messages. So I told her to kiss her stuff goodbye, and had her wipe data/cache and reinstall the newest stock rom. She still can't receive text messages. What are my options? I don't know if I could walk her through how to get back to stock (un rooted for the OTA), she isn't very computer literate and doesnt have ADB on her laptop. Anyone have any suggestions? Would going unrooted and getting the official update even help? Can I just send her an RUU in zip form to flash back to stock? She's freaking out, thus making my life horrible. Any help is really appreciated.

Well, my gf has a HTC Desire, which has 147MB set aside for app data, and she started getting this with just two Market apps installed...an issue that plagues that device. This was on 2.2!
I rooted her phone, and since she had all of her contacts as Phone contacts, the size it took up was over 87MB. I moved all of her contacts to Google, cleared the Contacts cache, re-synced Google, and her low storage warnings went away. I also stopped Facebook from syncing contact information as well. So now she is able to install more apps, and the issues haven't come back since.
I realize that this is a different phone, but maybe if she has a lot of phone contacts, and those are syncing up with FaceBook, could be causing issues?
I thought that too, so after she wiped and reinstalled the ROM I had her not set up Facebook. Another interesting thing, she can send all the texts she wants, but still cant receive any. I don't know what to tell her...

[Q] New radio broke MMS?

So. I've been using the Synergy RLS1 ROM for quite a while. Since it was released really. I've had little to no issues with it. About three nights ago, I attempted to update my radio from the stock 11.19, to 08.08. The phone worked for the most part, except it seemed that Rosie was gone. (I.E. I had data, recieved messages and emails, but couldn't even access a lockring to unlock the darn phone.) I had to reflash Synergy, and just noticed that while everything else is golden, my MMS suddenly refuses to send. I booted into CM7 (I run bootmanager) and MMS failed there as well. Any ideas? I am sorry if this has come up, but I couldn't find anything necessarily relevant to the topic anywhere.
Disregard. I fixed it by flashing the second to latest radio.

Not Receiving Texts or Calls (MiJJz FC05)

Hello,
Recently, I upgraded to MiJJz ICS 1.6.1 from 1.5 and since than, I have been unable to receive texts or calls of any kind. Data works perfectly, and I am able to send texts as well as call. I have tried flashing back to 1.5 and also some EL29 ROMS (doing a full wipe each time) but nothing has worked. ...I really don't know what to do.
Thanks,
Jmoroh
May be dumb question but have you updated your profile?

Not sure if you're still having this problem but the ROM is now up to 1.9 and most issues have been resolved. I'd try flashing the latest version, updating your PRL and Profile and see if you're good to go.
Good luck!

Cannot send text, stock rootet rom

I've done the Go SMS manual settings, rebooted, restored old rom, installed rootbox, reinstalled old rom again, used Chomp sms, handscent, and stock messenger. Cleared cache, and delvic cache, updated prl, profile, and fixed permissions. Did the ##...## thing too. Not sure what else to try. This is ridiculous. It just happened out of the blue. Was working since I got the phone and with all my roms. I can receive texts and make phone calls, my wife can send me texts and she is sitting next to me.
Any ideas?
Is this an unfixable problem???
Did the teenybin LGNPST and nothing helped. Anyone think doing an entire reset will fix this?
Am I talking to myself?
Reset to stock and if it doesn't work then, take it to sprint.
Well, Teenybin worked once I loaded a new stock rooted rom along with a radio flash and an efs flash. Been able to send texts for a little while now. Hoping it sticks. What sucks is I am worried about loading any new roms to try. Anyway, it's been fun chatting with myself for the most part. :silly:

[Q] can't recieve text messages

For some unknown cause, my t999 just stopped receiving sms messages. Doesn't matter what rom I'm using, stock or aosp gets the same results, I've flashed stock through mobile odin, no go, flashed aosp, still no go, flashed stock via Odin on pc and it still won't get messages, my s3 sometimes recieves them at random Intervals during the day and all at once. Sometimes I don't even recieve them at all and has been a major issue for me for the past 5 days now, any assistance in finding the cause of this problem would be gladly appreciated. Oh and it's all a clean flashed, wiped even the internal sdcard
