Warning! Text messages being sent to wrong people - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was just curious as to how many people are experiencing this same problem. It happens on occasion and randomly rooted or not. I was just wondering how many of you out there are having the same issue? Only on the Evo? How often? How consistent? And if you have any fixes or ideas on what may be causing this? Its very frustrating. I have read on the Android site where this is a know issue but they didn't seem too worried about it. Any help or advice would be much obliged. Thanks in advance!

Happened to me once....bad instance too. Talking to a girl and it sent to my brother...well that didnt end well.

never happened to me
EDIT: If I'm not mistaken that bug has been fixed in 2.3.1 or 2.3.2...now just to wait for them to get the update to us.

You are correct. They closed the bug report and announced that the fix was being released two days ago. The post announcing the release also has links to the relevant patches. The announcement is here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9392#c1620

Ive had this exact same problem a few times, and the first time i had an experience similar to Locoboi187's story..

Is this a firmware update or some other kind of update? This is annoying as all hell.

It used to happen to me a lot. I always delete all my messages after I write one just to avoid any issues.

It is an update by Google...we just have to wait for HTC to sense-ify it and release it to us. Or you can try a gingerbread rom.

You could try using handcent sms instead of the stock messaging app. That is suppose to also fix the problem.

Handcent almost got me shot by my girlfriend lol... sent a FB convo to a homie, while copying and pasting his name was on the thread the whole time. Sent the message and come to find out that the ENTIRE FB convo sent to my girl instead of my homie... Needless to say handcent sms has been REMOVED lol.

There'll be a way around it, yes. No 1.4 doesn't resolve this unfortunately.

Opendesire has a topic. Why don't you ask your questions there? Why are you starting a new topic?

I did ask, twice but no one replied.
So to get attention and show people this I made a new thread.
People need to know this problem and be able to find a way around it.

To be fair, it was asked numerous times before hand and was mentioned to be getting worked on.
Use the official bug tracker, it's mentioned in the second post of the official Open Desire thread.
BTW, it happened in a lot of vanilla roms (I had a Hero, and it happened on cyanogenmod port too, it took a while before getting it fixed).
TerrAme0, Really any need to comment? Thanks for your contribution...don't bother in the future.

SMS Issue

I am having an SMS issue and I dont know if its the ROM im running or just a general Bug. I am running the latest version of Sprint Lovers ROM. and with every other cell phone carrier besides Sprint sometimes when I receive a text it time stamps it up to 5 minutes in the future. So when I respond back it displays the texts out of order. then if the other person sends another one it has the correct time. is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks
Ha ha, I was going to ask this on XDA later tonight. I'm having the same issue while using a Sense ROM. CM6, to the best of my memory, did not have this problem when I was using it last night.

simple answer is that you'll see a bunch of posts when it's fixed, it's being actively worked on but it's not a simple fix
In very much layman's terms, can anyone explain how something like this gets broken? Why does it work in one version and then not in the next? Thanks!
Different phones use different settings and different servers. Different networks use totally different ways of handling messages.

that, and that code gets re-written, updated, etc.
something gets updated or fixed, and some other thing could break because of it... what I do know is that CM is a community project, with amazing devs, and they are dealing with cutting edge software. we gotta remember that 2.3.4 is only (officially) on two phones right now, the Nexus One and Nexus S, both Google phones.

Root Call Blocker testers needed

Hello everyone! Im the dev of Root Call Blocker, an app that acts as a call and sms firewall.
I would be grateful if someone tested the app for any issues!
You can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
Please let me know if you have any issues with voicemail or google voice - people on the market just never report issues correctly!
Hi,
I just started using the app today, didn't have the time to test it yet.
can you please explain the reject methods? basically I don't want anyone calling me to get the filling I hung up - the hang up should be immediate.
I'll update later on my impression of the app, for now I can say I loved that it has so many options for defining block policies and defining white / black lists. most apps I've seen don't come with all those options.
I already tested that app last week. I didn't like it, that's all.
Regards.

You don't like the App?
Yeah man, that's exactly the kind of review, the developer was looking for!

Yes, we certainly live amongst constant absurdity.
Outstanding issues have been fixed. Please update to 1.5.5 and let me know if your issues are solved. Its important we get some feedback guys!
For me everything is working perfectly. No issues to report for about a month now!
We have just made lots of additions, Update please if you havent already please!
Any issues with 1.6.2?
Working great here, thanks for this most awesome app!
We have a sale on - its only 1.98!

I said what I thought. It's been long since I last used it, seeing there is an upgrade, will test it again tomorrow and post back.
Last time, as far as I could remember there was no difference between this app and the in built Samsung Call Blocker other than the name of this app
Regards.
Would paying the 1.98 make it upgrade to Project Omega automatically later? and What exactly is Omega??
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Why would you assume that? The people that need to know what Omega is already do.
Anyway - there have been a lot of upgrades, and this app has always been the best call blocker on android - built in or not!
I think i know about OMEGA - theres been plenty of talk over at 4pda

No issues here - thanks for this best call blocker!
