GTalk not receiving messages on WiFi - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure if this is in the right place, if not please move it.
Whenever on WiFi I am not receiving any GTalk messages. It says Im signed in and I can send them all day, and the recipient gets them.
When on 3G it works just fine.
I am on CM7, and have tried several nightly builds and all the same issues. I will say I never noticed this when on any Sense ROM (Magnolia, RRevolution, Redemptive, etc.)
Anyone else having this problem?

Yeah I've had this problem across multiple ROMS. GTalk messages are instant with 3G and totally random with Wifi. Sometimes on Wifi it's 10-20 seconds, sometimes it's 1 hour, sometimes it's never. No idea why, but I can confirm that this happens to me too and it's annoying!

Well at least there are 2 of us....

Weird SMS Message Problem

Hi
I am having a problem with my Desire at the moment,regarding SMS messages.
I am currently in a 2G area, which is very sketchy at the best of times, and I seem to be having trouble receiving SMS messages.
Sometimes if I am on my phone using a 2G data connection, any text messages I receive during this time will not appear on my phone until I have either sent an outgoing text or made / received a phone call. Then I could get loads at once, as my phone has not gave them to me during the data connection, or even after I have finished actively using the data connection (APN still turned on though).
I currently have CM Nightly 09102010 with baseband version 32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.23.
Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening and get my text messages when they are sent, and not hours later?
Thanks
Stewart
No-one?
Doesn't anyone else experience this?
It sounds like a network problem, I had the same thing happen with older phones, not with my Desire though.

Text messaging not sending. Please Help!!

Do you guys have issues when sending txt messages? My phone almost everyday when I try to send a txt message i'll wont finish sending, it keeps saying "sending" and it wont deliver. I have to delete the message and restart my phone....
This is really annoying....
Is there a fix for this?
Are you doing level 2 ram clears to end applications? If so this has been known to play hell with SMS/MMS.
if you DID do a level 2 ram clear... just reboot your phone and try again
What's a "level 2" ram clear?
BTW, I'm in NYC area, and Sprint has been having major issues here over the past week or 2. Almost everyone I know on Sprint is experiencing dropped calls, failed messages and other connection problems. Supposedly a known issue.

I did have this problem on the stock Epic. Do not ask me why but if I turned the Data Network Mode off it would send all messages. I would then turn it back on and have no problems for a few days and then it would pick up again. It was almost like the phone just needed a change of routine. This hasn't happened recently, but was very annoying.

Stock SMS app?
Do you experience this issue using the stock SMS app or a different one?
If using stock app, have you tried a different one like ChompSMS or Handcent?
Yes, I do level 2 ram clear very often actually, so this might be the problem ahn?
I use the stock one, I've tried and handcent once and had the same issue with it....
Thanks for the feedback guys....
Don't clear the Ram (on any level) unless your phone stops working properly.
The Android OS manages memory better on it's own than you will ever be able to and it won't lead to issues like messages not sending.

[Q] Delayed Text Messages?

I don't think this has been asked yet, but I get really delayed text messages. I'll be texting people and I sometimes I won't get the texts 30 - 45 minutes after they send it for whatever reason. This has been an issue for me since day one with the phone. I have had this issue on multiple ROMs, and I have had this issue and Illinois, and I'm having it again in Arizona. I know people text me back because sometimes I'll be talking to them on Facebook and they'll confront me and say;
Them: "Thanks for texting back."
Me: "What do you mean?"
Them: "I just texted you five minutes ago."
*25 minutes later,*
Me: "Hey I got your text."
Them: "Kbye."
Does anybody else get this issue? I've called Sprint about it and they tell me a Profile Update will fix it. Today was my fourth time calling and I told them to not even try and give me a Profile Update. Also, I disabled/uninstalled my Stock MMS application because I use GOSMS, but this has been happening way before that, even when I used to use the Stock MMS application with no 3rd party application installed. This is especially annoying because these last couple of days I Tether. I understand that while Tethering, I can't get phone calls or texts, but sometimes I don't get texts until 2, 3 hours after my Tethering application (Barnacle) has been killed with the pre-installed Task Manager.
Is there anyway to solve this?
This happened to me over the weekend here in MA. Sprint might be having some issues with growing pains?
Yes I have gotten some 10 mins late as well

If Barnacle is slightly a culprit, why not eliminate it completely? Or. Don't use it for some days, see if the delay persits, and on a positive note, after you tether, REBOOT your phone, it will allow your Cell Radio to send/retrieve pending texts that were delayed from your tether, instead of 5 hours later, they should be coming in shortly after the boot. You're welcome. =)
P.S. Please don't take offence or feel arrogance towards my comment on eliminating Barnacle, what I meant by that was to try out WifiTether. Lol.

I know you said the problem petsisted before removing the stock messaging app, but I recommend leaving it installed. It isn't uncommon for people to have problems after removing it and only using a 3rd party app.

I've had this problem all last week. I am not using any third party apps, just the stock sms.

Like arrows83 said, I had the same problem multiple times with the Stock MMS application.
This Is Bad ..
Im having the exact same problem EXCEPT:
If I send a message and wait until the "sending" under the actual message changes to the time the message was sent, it'll send.
Other than that, if I don't wait and say for instance go to my fb app, the message doesn't send until 20 - 30 mins later.
All that are having text issues, this isn't a permanent remedy, but in case of important texting where you need the texts and you have issues, just hold down the power, deactivite data, and let your messages send/receive via 1x. It'll go through smoothly.

[Q] Trouble Sending Texts

So the past couple days I've noticed that my texts sent from either the stock app of GoSMS Pro have not always been sending. I don't get message failed to send errors, it thinks it sent but it just never went through? I'm using SRF 1.2, and I have my number tied to Google Voice. I have no issues receiving texts at all. I have been verifying the sending of texts by looking in the gvoice app to see if they sent. I have never had this isolated issue before. I tried re-flashing the ROM to no improvement. Any ideas? Anyone else see this issue?
I was having this issue the past week and it randomly started working again. I did the same thong though trying to reflash and everything to no avail. I was just dealing with it and magically it just started working ib the last 30 hrs or so.
My guess is sprint is doing some sort of tower changes and its messing with service.

Thanks, yeah it came "back on" I guess you can say a couple days ago and sent out a whole bunch of texts in a row and has worked normally since. Must've been a network thing. I'm glad I didn't mess up too much on my phone loL!

Sense roms always have text times wrong?

It seems like whenever I flash a sense rom and start texting, the outgoing messages are okay but the recieved messages are always an 2-3 hours behind. Is this just me or is there a fix for this?
I feel like its a sprint tower issue. I'm constantly roaming at my house so I always get delayed messages or texts showing a different time

umm can you be more specific on what version of sense?
i have had issue with 3.5 not sending or recieving texts but no issues like the ones you describe with other versions
i believe this could help you out too but maybe not lol https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.sineo.android.GhostSMS&hl=en

I have this issue EVERYTIME I receive a text while roaming. Never fails.
I have this problem with all Sense ROMs I have flashed, and I am a flashaholic. To get around this, I have just installed Go SMS Pro, which is better than the stock messaging app anyway. Any third-party SMS app should have the option to fix this as well.
I've had this problem on a couple occasions from what it sounds like... It does not sound like an app problem it sounds more like a service problem... When I called sprint to inform them of the issue they sent "refreshes" to my phone and it cleared up the problem almost instantly

Checkyour settings and make sure to enable data while roaming. I think most roms have it disabled by default.
it's some sort of tower issue. It happens to me occassionally when I travel around. Cricket is my provider but it uses Sprint towers I beleive.
I use a tiny free app from the market called SMS Time Fix when I see it happen.
