Texts are all mixed up

I remember this happening to my rooted g1 with the slow and sort of crappy sense ui installed; so when my wife complained that her text messages on her Slide dont go in order i was shocked that the problem STILL exists.
I didnt see a thread about it here, sorry if i missed it. Anyone else have text message conversations where the texts are out of order? Phone is stock btw

I appear to have that same problem too, but I'm using stock Android right now. If we have the same problem I can elaborate on it more.
My problem seems to be that if I get a text message reply from someone and it's in the same minute as the last text message I sent the person, their text will go above mine, even though they sent their's after I sent my text.
So for example: I send a text to somebody at 3:20:15PM and that person sends a text to me at 3:20:55PM, their text will go above my 3:20 text, making it look like they sent the message first.

I had this problem as well, before my phone was rooted and even after. The only solution i have found is to install a different SMS app, which i use Handcent because its the closest to the stock app, and its free.

interesting, my wifes is stock and she said it happened with texts that were no more than a minute apart as you mentioned.
i just cannot believe this is still a problem. Sense UI is neat but this sure seems like a fundamental feature that shouldnt have such issues...

same thing has been happening to my texts, before and after root.

i can say the same thing happens to me also

Sending MMS Problems after 2.2

So lately Ive noticed alot of time I send picture messages to people it says they cant recieve them. Some people with other Droids can get them and Blackberry users also have no problem. I sent a picture to a basic cellphone and an iphone and neither phone could download the picture. Anyone else having this problem and is there a fix?

I'm having the same problem. I'm also having a problem receiving messages. I'm using redemption 2.0.4

I'm all stock, so the sending MMS part has to be something with 2.2. I don't have any problem receiving them though

Are you sending through handcent? I cannot send mms through handcent. You have to use stock messenger for now...

Im using totally stock and non-rooted phone. Still gives me issues

MMS has always been a challenge for me with this phone. When I first got it I was able to send MMS to anyone with the exception of iPhone users using most messaging application I tried. To send MMS to iPhone users I had to use the stock messaging application (not Handcent, etc.) and also enter text into the text field, or else it would fail. After I upgraded to 2.2 I noticed that more often than not my MMS were failing regardless of the device I was sending it to and what application I used. This problem seems to be specific to the Incredible and is quite frustrating. Any info or knowledge on the subject would be GREATLY appreciated!

[Q] CM7 MMS issue

I searched the CM7 thread, but MMS and issue are such vague queries that I was unable to find anything pertaining to my issue.
I can receive MMS fine, but I cannot send at all. I choose the pic I want to send and hit send, and it just disappears. Doesn't show up in the thread of messages. Then when I back out of it, I see the last message I sent that person is (no subject) like it was my pic, but when I go into the thread it is not sent. But it shows up with the pic again like I never sent it. It saves it as a draft. Any time I hit send it does the same thing over and over. I can't even get the pic to delete from drafts. The only way is to delete the whole thread.
I have changed my number in the call settings to show with a +509251xxxx, no dashes or anything. Is there something else I am missing? I have tried several different CM7 builds and all have the same problem.

bump - really? Nothin guys?
Edit: reflashed CM7 and only restored apps+data, no system data and problem was resolved. I assumed since my system data was from a prior CM7 version that it would be no problem, apparently I was wrong. Thank me for all the help

I have the same issue. It doesn't disappear for me, but it just stays there wit the spinning circle thing. It never sends and after a couple of minutes, it says I cannot send the MMS.
Is there a solution without reflashing?

same problem.mine says mms is too large

I have the opposite issue. I've been completely unable to pin down the issue. I can MMS myself pictures and can MMS them to my email, but I cannot receive them. I used to receive them just fine, but now it's an issue.
I've confirmed that I can't receive them from iPhones, BlackBerries, and other Android phones.
I've checked my APN and know it works. I can access Mobile Data.
I've tried third party apps for messaging and that doesn't help.
I've spoofed as an iPhone, BlackBerry, and Custom (Blank) Agent without any results.
I've ensured my phone number in system settings doesn't have any symbols.
Anyone fix this issue?

Uhh, yeah that sucks: I have absolutely no idea, im on GingerVill 1.5 and it works fine, I also flashed sense, regular cm7, miui, and I never had a problem with it..
Try to download handscent or go sms and try that? I doubt that will work but give it a try!

I've got a similar issue -
Using CM7 7.0.3's Mms.apk my phone processes sms no problem, however it will not process mms - send or receive.
Go SMS Pro however will let me SEND picture messages - and Its going through my carrier because in an email to myself it was full of their crap - Sent to you from a Koodo Mobile Customer!
Unfortunately I cannot receive mms; Go SMS implies that it relies on the Mms.apk to forward notifications.
Considering that the Mms.apk isn't syncing with the mmsc properly, I'm assuming the problem lies there. I've even gone so far as to go to one of the phone kiosks and ask to play with their new Nexus S (*drool*) and ripped the apns off of it and uploaded their apn directly to my phone. Still, no dice.
Any suggestions anyone?

I've been having the same problems. Tried lots of things. I was also using Go SMS pro, and thought that was the issue. Tried fooling around with apn, user agent and MMS size etc... Nothing worked except the simple fix:
What I had to do to make it work was to have my mobile network on -- (which I almost always have off from the notification switches). Once it was turned on, it still didn't kick over because I was connected to wifi. So I had to manually disable wifi and then resend the message. It worked fine then.
So:
Turn off wifi
turn on mobile / 3g
resend message
Seems like a simple bug that's keeping the mobile network from kicking on.

I can't open attachments in my messages.

When someone sends me an attachment in a text message it just says downloading then gives me a message saying it can't be downoaded.
This is happening on stock and with Chomp messaging.
Any advice?

Is your data connection on? If so, then maybe the network is down for a bit and just try again in a few minutes.

I'm having the same problem. Also on stock.

It's apparently a problem with the CM nightlie I was using. Flashed SuperCM7 G2 v1.9 from Htcclay and absolutely love it. And videos play when I get them in a text message on stock messaging AND Chomp.
I think I found my favorite ROM! This thing is so cool.

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.
