If you're using handcent, under settings, did you check the box that prevents re-sending of a message?

Its happening to me also, I been receiving same text message from various senders since about 1pm! its really pissing me off!!! My setup is in my sig.

Just stock SMS. I even loaded handcent and selected don't resend and it still does. Help

Have you tried going into settings -> applications-> manage-> then force stop mms, then clear data and cache? Also if that dosen't (i think it should) remove all messages from your inbox you should do that also.

Just talked to sprint and the problem is how the SMS gets stuck in a loop on their servers. They asked if i was running any foreign Rom (of course not), as that can cause the corruption. The will have to fix it on their side.

Sprint fixed my SMS from hell. They tried to tell me it was the phones, but considering the sending phone was off, and the receiving phone was still getting them, I proved them wrong. Tier two took over and flushed something on their side and the text messages finally, thankfully stopped.

SMS code34 error with red triangle?

SMS code 34 error with red triangle when sending text is driving me nuts, has any body had this problem? Is there a fix
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I get it more often recently. Most annoying thing is that it keeps resending the sms to the recipient, who actually RECEIVES it each time yet the phone tells me there was an error. Sucks bombarding my friends/relatives with literally 20+ of the same sms
Happens to me too. Send like ten texts without knowing it because my phone says it didn't send so I resend it.

Where do you live? Are you in an active NV deployment market?

Sms disappearing

Randomly while sending texts or receiving them, my texts randomly disappear or auto hide when I open the app. Other times you can see the messages for a split second then they will disappear saying "your message inbox is empty".
There are also times when I will be in a conversation Window and after replying to a message the message content will disappear and when I back out there will be no messages there either.
Anyone know what the hell is going on? I've restored, deleted cache including dalvik and even installed a new rom twice. The only reason I rooted was to fix this issue.

I'm having the same thing happen to me and the only way to fix it is restart my phone
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
At least I known in not the only one now. This restarting my phone crap gets old fast. Plus restarting once doesn't always fix the issue.
I know others have had this problem. Please come forward!

This is a bump. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Seriously, can't i get someone who knows these phones good to post on here? I am really getting tired of having to restart my phone whenever i send a text message...it's getting old FAST...

I am currently running Odexed blue by Team Vennum. I only flashed this rom and rooted because i lost all ability to copy/paste AND this started happening. I was "putting up with" not being able to copy/paste, but once this happened a few times on stock, it was the last straw.

Do you use the stock messaging app or a 3rd party one?

Help with samsung messaging issue

So I am hoping someone else has this issue so I know I am not going crazy:
My phone, a few times of day, the messaging app, stock/hand cent/SMS pop up/go SMS/ chomp, I have tried all of them and they all do the same thing. I will be in the middle of a text conversation with someone and all of the sudden all my texts will disappear and all of my conversations will disappear. I cannot send a message or receive one and everything in the messaging app is blank.
I have tried wiping data and cache on the messaging app and hasn't worked. Tried a soft reset and hard reset and doesn't work. Took phone to sprint and they couldn't recreate issue. Ordered me a refurb phone and it is doing same thing.
Tried not restoring my Google account info and starting from scratch and it still does it. Only thing that makes the messages come back is a reboot of the phone and voila the messages are all back like nothing happened.
Please someone tell me how to fix this!

Old text messages keep sending or receiving.

My wife, daughter and I all have Att smartphones. The past week or so we have been receiving old text messages or delayed text messages. I live in Chicago and have Att service. I am wondering if anyone has experienced this and how to fix it.

Just started happening to me a couple of days ago. Received a text that was date stamped 2 days prior. Also noticed that I get texts that show up in the notifications but not in the message app. Only way to access them is to open through notification bar. I also live in the Midwest and have At&t service.
Sounds like it's an AT&T issue.

My thoughts exactly. Messaging was fine until then. No changes to phone before or during the period the late messages were arriving.
I just got a text yest that was dated from thurs..I thought my phone was messed up...glad I ain't the only one
You guys should also check out if your AT&T message backup & sync is the culprit. It has a tendency to sync and bring back very old messages. I disabled it (hence why it's grayed out in the pic).

AT&T backup was off. (Never have used it). Think was an AT&T issue as mentioned earlier. Haven't had issues lately.
