[Q] Problems receiving SMS - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development

Hi all,
I have a Kaiser 120, using the latest (2.6.32_VOGUIMG-320-FROYO-11-12-10.NBH) by l1q1d, installed Android on Nand.
Recently i noticed that once in a while i cannot receive sms when my friends told me that they had send me a text message and reported as delivered. I confirmed this by sending myself a text message from my brother's phone, it was reported as delivered but i didn't receive anything in my phone. This ONLY happens ONCE IN A WHILE.
I was using Galaxy S FroYo rom and just flashed to the new 11-12-10 kernel by thoughtlesskyle when i first noticed the problem, i thought it was ROM related and switched to thoughtlesskyle's Not So Super FroYo. But i still have this problem. I have used VanijEclair and Super Froyo before and didn't notice the problem (maybe the problem exist back then but i just didn't notice)
I don't know if this is ROM related, or Kernel related, or maybe Radio related (i think im using 1.71.xx.xx) or maybe its just a carrier/network problem.
I am from India, using Vodafone. (can anyone from india pleae tell me which radio you are using??)
Anyone have any idea???
Thanks all...

It could be just that the messaging app is not actively in memory and misses one or two messages. I know in the Cyanogen based builds there is an option to force it to stay in memory.

thanks for the reply... how can i do that???
EDIT: im really frustrated now... i dont know what you mean by actively in memory, but just to test it, i dont close the messaging app and leave it open even after going to sleep, the problem still exist. I ask my friends using the same carrier(vodafone) but using other phones, they didt report any problem... (

There is a command that will force it to reside in memory at all times. In Cyanogen mod in the CM settings there is a box you can tick to enable it. For other roms there is a command you could set but I don't remember the command.

thanks fo the help... appreciate it...

Have you tried using scott's rom or my barebones rom? You could test if that is indeed the issue with those two as they are Cyanogen based so you could test it with those. The setting you would need to enable is enabled by default I believe so you would not have to change any settings.

will give it a shot... thanks..

Not able to send and receive text messages...

just got my tilt 2 and immediately flashed to a new rom (erasers latest HTC rom) and the text messaging would not work at all. wasn't sure if it was a rom issue but I loaded energys pheonix 2 on there (standard version) and the same problem. what should I do next? mess with the connection settings or load a new radio or a new rom or what?
thanks in advance, I am a huge noob but I am loving the phone so far (besides this minor hiccup)
bump for some help... someone give me some advice before I start throwing new radios on here!
Bump in the house
Tilt 2 means you are in the US?
I got kind of similar problem - I can't send messages to contacts. If I enter the number instead of picking the contact it works fine AND if I enter a number wich is stored as a contact it displays the name in the "to" field... Quite strange.
I got all my contacts in Outlook International format (that means +49 (0123) 123456789). I guess it's about that. On EPS Advanced ROM it was possible to edit the number after picking a contact (delete the 0 from (0123)) and it worked. This is no longer possible with Energy Leo ROM and now DeepShining ROM.
How are your contacts saved? Maybe you have the same problem (but that doesn't explain why you can't receive messages...). You might try Josh's ROM for example, it contains the correct Radio!

It is possible the Connection Settings for your provider have not been configured. Start>Settings>Connections>Connection Setup

Have you gone to Settings>Connections>Advance Network and from here hit the SMS Services Tab. Does it say GSM preferred?

what should I do? return the phone?? install the stock rom and take it to ATT? this is starting to suck since I have had it since Friday and it hasnt worked.
yeah take it back and tell them it isnt working. Get a new phone. Might be a hardware issue.
sorry guys, turns out it was an issue with ATT. went to the store and resolved it and now I am loving the phone. thanks for the help though, I have been worrying about this for the last 4 days, good to have it resolved.

All our technical advice couldn't have helped this issues as it was a background service glitch......Good to hear it's all settled...
I cleared out all my sms/mms messages and I still have the icon saying I have one new txt, when I go to the inbox I see no new messages but it still won't clear, any suggestions?
I saw this thread after almost starting one similar. Im currently on Simplicity and cant send or receive mms messages either, but it works fine with the stock att rom. Wat do i need to do to get it to work on simplicity?

MMS on 2.2 AOSP only with mobile data on?

Why?
The correct way of working should be that the MMS connection starts itself when an mms is leaving or arriving...
On CM6 and others 2.2 i tried i have to start everytime the mobila data.
Any way to change this? In the stock 2.1 it worked like i say...
Thanks!
Same thing on 1.2 floyo.
It is the wrong thread, probably will be moved to q&a

Hope that some great dev here can fix this as it is in the stock roms...

They work but you have to enable mobile data. For incoming MMS, my operator send an advice so i can activate it when it's needed.
Non so bad but hope it can be fixed...
Did anyone try this (i.e. cyanogenmod forums, xda forums, etc.)?
For example, I found this thread: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/3558-incoming-mms-resized-to-8kb-solved/
or the last post on this one (which is the same supposed solution if I am not mistaken):
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/2982-sending-mms-without-data-plan-possible/
Another thread I found on cyanogenmod forums, said that with ChompSMS it works fine (although with the builtin messaging it does not).
This appears to be a quite common problem, not specific to the hero, and I think that if someone seriously devouts some time and effort searching for a solution on the internet they will find it - hopefully they can also share it with the rest here.
Please note, that I can't do this, even if I wanted, since in every ROM I have tried I could never send/receive MMS and I don't have a data plan - my telephone company still thinks I have the same phone from 7 years ago....
I tried the solution linked by erasmux but nothing solved.
I tried all the user agent i have in the list... No mmswith stock app or handcent.
I have Solved this thing by using "Hisurfing". with "Hisurfing-APN Switcher widget" if u turn it off then only the APN for Internet goes off not the MMS APN. Secondly u must have enabled the Data.
I am currently using CM 6.1
Please post ur comments

I am running cm7 final but I have been having the opposite problem, I can send but there are some I can't receive. When I have this issue the mms is usually coming from a person not on the Sprint network ...
If you're having issues sending/receiving mms, try the following.
Using adv launcher, create a shortcut to custom activity.
Specifically, settings/*apn*. I can't remember the exact name, but you'll have to navigate the list of junction points when you do the settings pull down.
Once created, go ahead and tap on the shortcut. You'll see 2 apn settings. One will have sprintpcs.com in the MMSC field, the other wont.
For the one that does not, scroll down to APN type. Change the parameter in that field to 'default' (small letters without the quotes).
For the other one, change it to 'mms'
Reboot. You should be good to go.

Read post 6321 and that will solve this MMS problem!
Not trying to sound like an ass and if I am then that's fine because I know I am BUT it took you longer to post your question on here then it would of taken you to search for it in the right place.
Why do people call a release that still has issues and needs special fixes, stable?

Well......is kind of like comparing peanuts to apples here BUT take Windows for example! Windows gets released right?! Well is suppose to be BUG FREE and completely sable correct? WELL it isn't! Not every rom on here is 100% BUG FREE and it needs updates/little things fix from time to time because not every phone acts the same way to every rom! CM7 works flawlessly on my phone but as you can see, dude has issues with his MMS! Not trying to start an argument or anything on here BUT don't act all high and mighty because you're using a sense rom where things happen to work a bit better!
It takes bigger balls to do something completely different like an AOSP rom then just play around with .PNGs and call it a ROM! I could take a sense rom and use it as a base and change a couple of things, add some wallpaper and upload it but am I going to?...NO!!...because that's just stupid!
I'm not acting all high and mighty. I just happen to be using a sense ROM now. I've ran CM, too. And Miui, et al.... Like I told someone yesterday, when I buy a new car, I don't need to add things to make the lights go on, or do some fanangling to make the wipers work. MMS is a basic feature of the phone. The basics, like GPS, etc, should work by default, not because you have to type some weird code into you dialer, oh, and do it on another type of mod first, then flash back to CM......

exactly! im not sure why cm7 was finaled, too many bugs yet compared to the deck rom or salvage-mod rom which both are 100% functional.
I'm not getting what you guys are saying about bugs. I have experienced none. Mms, GPS, wimax all work out the box.

[Q] Custom Roms effect on Whatsapp

Dear Guys,
I met a problem with whats app recently, although I am using the latest version.
When my mobile goes to standby mode, whats app doesn't deliver any message unless I power the phone and start surfing or doing any stuff.
I have met this problem with several custom ROM. taking into consideration that when I set the email to push, it works good but whats app is still delays the messages till I wake up the phone and start surfing or browsing.
does custom kernels did something to that for the sake of battery saving??
Can Any one help?? or have an idea about it that??
i am having this problem too.
Although i am not using i9000(I am using LG optimus black), I can't receive whatsapp in the stand by mode.
Only if i turn on the screen, the notification box will jump out.
I didn't meet this problem while using the shock firmware.
Hope can have a solution.
change wifi policy to not sleep and see if it relates
if you are connected through :
1) Wifi: go to wireless settings, press menu, change the "Wifi policy" to "never"
2) Mobile internet: cant help you, you should ask your provider if they have problems with C2DM push notifications.
For me I resolved the issue by using another Provider company that supports C2DM. And changed the settings of the wifi policy.
*C2DM :cloud to device messaging.

I was about to tell you, may be there is issues pertaining to your network , but after you mentioned darky rom, I changed my mind, one of my friends is experiencing this problem and he is on darky rom 9.2 EE, you can refer this issue to darky, maybe he can help you through.

Receiving and sending duplicate text messages.

Hi everyone!
I'm using an Xperia Pro (with Fido) running FXP CM10. I've had this issue since forever and it really bothers me right now..... I keep receiving
duplicate text messages and I even send duplicated messages (without me noticing. It shows that I sent only one message). The weird thing is that
it seems to be happening to only one person (the person I text the most). Switching roms did not help me at all as I tried this like 3 or 4 times.
Some people told me to switch back to the original kernel for whatever rom I'm using but I've had this issue even on default kernels. No I am not
using a third party messaging app before you ask me that. Is there any specific options I need to configure in settings that could help me? Or is
there any options that I need to configure that could potentially make it worst? Sorry If I confused you or anything I'm just really desperate about
this problem. My friend is with Virgin Mobile if that could mean anything. So do you guys have any idea what the problem is or know how to fix
this issue? Maybe I dropped my phone too much (several times and once I dropped it from 2 meters high).
Thanks in advance!!
I've had the same problem before. Try this app

Maybe you can reflash the ROM and try using a different kernel?

Maybe its something like the Problem in this thread
I wasnt expecting to see this!
Been at my mates house tonight and he has the exact same problem, but has an xperia play.
Started happening a few days ago.
Keep this thread updated if you figure out what is happening because otherwise i have to mess about with his phone and explain how it all works again ha

I'm not sure why but it suddenly stopped! At least for now. I noticed it stopped since I changed my plan (was paying 25$ a month and now there is
a discount that reduces it to 12.50$ a month.) Also, I'm using the Rom ViperXperia with Ultima ICS kernel because both has some network side
tweaks. I'm gonna try another kernel now and see if the problems comes back.
no solution to this?
Ive had this problem on my xperia play running xperia nxt lite using doomlord kernel. Its really frustrating cause it sends me so many messages and then I recieve a different message and it continous doing that. Please help

This issue is most likely to be caused by being in a place with poor coverage or your phone fails to receive the network response that the text message was sent. Having both tweaks may be causing instability to how your phone handles the reception (increases the radio signal during weak network coverage or decreases the network signal during strong coverage.)
Try using a different kernel with Viper or try a different ROM with Ultima ICS... if the problem persists, try another ROM and kernel.
