Multiple text messages problem - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not sure if its a problem with my service with sprint, my phone or the roms I'm using. Well lately the past 2 weeks whenever I get a message not sent error on my phone, my phone keeps notifying me until it finally sends the message but the person it sends it to always tells me I've sent them the same text message 10+ times. This first happened to me when I switched from CM7 to MynsWarm. I thought it might be the rom so I switched to MIUI and the error message thing still happens. Anyone else experiencing the same issue? Any suggestion or help trying to figure out what may be causing this.

I think its the network. My wifes phone does every once in awhile and she has a stock nonrooted intercept. Sounds like a bug with sprint
We're comin from a pure power source.

Do either of you have an Airave? Twice I have heard of this problem, both had Airaves.

Nope, no airave here.

I have an airave. Any link or info about that?

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.

Recieving MMS..

Hey guys. So im realizing when people send me pictures. You have to click the download button. Well when I click it. It does not download and I can not recieve the pictures. In fact, it doesnt even download. Any way to fix this?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
Just realized my pics arent sending either.. what goes on here?
Just sent and received a picture message(With Wifi on). Sounds like it might just be a problem with your phone/connection
**Your phone should Automatically Turn on Mobile Data when Sendin or Receiving MMS Messages while Wifi is active. If this is not happening you may want to Call Customer Care.**
Another thing that may be affecting this is bad Signal

Well i came to the conclusion that i have to be on 4g.. i was tying to send and receive pics under wifi.. how come it does not work under wifi? or is it just me?

Same thing is happening to me. Sending and receiving pics only works when 3g\4g is on rather than Wifi

This has always happened with me with every phone i had. Including from different carriers. I always thought this was normal.

Quite normal. Of course Mobile Data has to be on. No phone can send a message through wifi and have it delivered through the carrier
Edit
However, even with WIFI on your phone should start and stop mobile Data to send and receive MMS messages. If yours is not doing this, then you may want to call Customer Care.
Another possible reason for why this is happening is that you may have a very weak or bad signal.

Friend not recieving msgs?!?!?!

She's lying lol
Sounds to me like the problem is on her end not yours.
If texting everyone else works fine except for texting to her.....

It's either a problem on her end or plain and simple she's lying. If you really want to get to the bottom of it, next time you're with her send her a text and look at her phone that's the best answer anyone can give you. If she really does not get the message the problem is on her end.

I've seen similar things happen, seemed to be a network problem, account problem or phone not checking in type of problem.
Has it continued since she got all the back texts all at once? Does she receive texts from other people or miss those too?
First try a simple reboot if you haven't already. Send her a text and if she doesn't get it have her toggle airplane mode on/off. Try with wifi calling on and off.
Back up contacts and messages and in Application Management clear cache and data on contacts, dialer storage, dialer, and messaging.
It'd be strange for the battery to cause that, but put the old one back in and test it out.
If her phone is rooted, make a nandroid. Try a different modem. Try clear dalvik, cache and if needed data/factory reset.
If all fails call tmobile and ask to reprovision the account.
Good luck!

Did you try adding just in delivery reports for sms and mms?
Also is this intra or inter carrier. That can cause a delay as well.

Text messages failing to send after JB update.

I have been noticing all day today that randomly text messages will fail to send with full bars of service. Anyone else experiencing this problem after updating to JB? Never had a single text message fail to send prior to the update.

My husband got this problem. He kept sending me the same message multiple times because he did they kept failing to send.

having this same problem too after the JB update. Stock Rooted Rom and unlocked. Might be an issue with the new radios.
Same. When the messages were "failing" they were actually getting sent three times in a row. I also had trouble receiving messages. This was the first time I have observed this problem.

Try updating prl
failed messages
When flashing is done, you have to update PRL and Profile.. it should fix those issues.
This is done through settings-->> system updates
I am already using the latest prl. I made sure of updating that and the profile right after the jb update. Seems like the problem has gone away for now at least. Hasn't done it today at all.

Same issue here, but sporadic. I also notice I am having network errors at times when trying to do any one of the system updates, but again, sporadic.
Has everyone got their jb update ? Still haven't received mine.

I'm having the exact same problem. It seems like it happens the most when I have a bad signal but it will also randomly happen with full bars.

i have the exact opposite problem lol. in bad reception my text gets sent about four times
That's what I meant. When I have bad service it will say sending for a long time and sometimes it will say it failed but it sends multiple messages.

1st thing I did after flashing the update/radios was to update profile and prl. Happens sporadically here too.
other type of data issue.. but similar
Ok so my problem is that when using k9 mail and i try to email an exsiting contact, it fails every time. If i copy and paste the address into the email field, it works just fine.. Also my texting sends but it's slow to send... used to be semi instant, but takes several seconds. Any ideas, i have. updated PRL and Profile several times.
Texting
The only problem I have had with texting since the update us that when i try and hit send after typing text its greyed out not green...usually ill exit out of the stock app and go back in and do it again and it will send....usually have that problem few times aday...
Okay so this problem only happens when I am at work with decent signal. Doesn't happen anywhere else that I have noticed. Didn't happen before jb update. It is also sending multiple times my gf says.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
See this happens to me at first when i was stock on ics. Messages triple send with latest prl and profile even though it showed sent once. It stopped with a different ROM. Both on lifeless and imperium initiative.
Same here. Texts often fail to send. And it's a toss up, sometimes when it says it failed, it is received and sometimes not. What I've figured out, is that it's mostly on short messages, consisting of 1-3 words! Long messages almost always send fine. MMS, no problem either. I've updated profile and PRL and done a soft reset. I've tried other messaging apps, like Chomp and GoSMS, no dice. Never happened until the JB update.
I made a thread about this a week ago. I did not see this one.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2205523. Still no fix from sprint or have I found any true fixes on here yet. Has to do with the new radios that came with jellybean. This seems to be more problematic in the Chicago area. The only option currently is to go back to ics. It would be nice if someone could figure out how to install ZV7/ZV8/ZV9 radios on jellybean.
Make sure you contact sprint, so they are aware of the problem.

some problems I've noticed with my note 2...

This phone is great but I have had 3 reoccurring issues.
The first is that the phone just ends calls sporadically with no rhyme or reason. It could be after minute, 3 seconds or 24 minutes.
The second is sometimes it goes silent for notifications, blocking mode is not on but I have to restart the phone to correct it.
Third is my second Gmail account doesn't push notifications anymore and I find it difficult to retrieve or send my messages.
Had anyone else experienced these issues? What can I do to correct them?

Am but the issues were there before and two other people have told me their phone just hangs up sometimes too.
So your saying the phone had problems even on stock no root? If so unroot and if the problem persists then take it in they will most likely exchange it due to faulty hardware
My phone hangs up sometimes as well. At random times and places. On all different roms. Even stock deodexed roms . Not enough to bug me but it can be annoying if you're on an important call. I haven't had the other issues you stated though.
