K this is something thats really bugging the crap out of me and I'm trying to see if I'm the only one that has this issue
I send one text message and the recipient might get it once or twice. It happens randomly and to different people on different networks. I'm using chomp sms and I've tried handcent along with the stock messaging app and it still continues to do it. It's really annoying, I don't want to go back to the itrash4 because of this...any help would be nice.
edit;
my mytouch 4g was doing this too along w/ the nexus one when I had T-Mobile. I thought it was Tmob's network that was causing this problem; hence the switch to Verizon but yet it still continues. I know I'm not doing anything wrong and it happens at my office and anywhere I'm texting from...I'm starting to think this might be an issue with HTC since it even happen with my thunderbolt, and my cousins thunderbolt...is anyone else experiencing this or am I just out of luck?
........anyone?

Are you getting double incoming messages too?
Do you possibly have duplicate contacts or something to that effect? Maybe certain contacts are in more than one contact category or Google/Phone both and the messages are being sent to both contacts or something really wacky like that?

nope, i just get one message but when i send it, it can go one time or a few..i saw my messages on my girlfriends iphone and it shows me sending "ok" 3 times when on my phone it shows i sent it one time -_-
My contacts are strictly off Google. Now that you mention it...maybe it does have to do with Google? I'll try switching someones contact onto my phone and send messages that way instead of having it off Google and see what that does. Thanks for the help, I'll report back
...still doing it after I changed my contact to my sim
I think I'm going to return it for the iPhone...this ****s a joke

For some reason I cannot send a MMS (picture) to my wifes iPhone. I told her to get a different freakin phone because my phone hates hers but she won't listen. So I am left with trying to figure out if I can talk my phone into doing what I ask anyways. Anyone else have this problem? I have the 2.15.00.07.28 radion, should I upgrade to the newer one? Need a fix...
I am able to send mms to BlackBerrys
*228 doesn't work either

Try putting a written message in there as well.
Handcent has a problem with iPhones, the stock app will work but like mentioned, there has to be some txt. Even ... or something and it will go through.

I know the Iphone 3g did not allow pic texts. Not sure about the 4g
its not the iphone... i believe it is a problem between att and verizon. the mms from verizon has a tough time getting through to att...
the iphone users seem to be frustrated by this as well...

in my experience, best way around this (besides making your girl switch to android) is to just text your girlfriends iPhone from your gmail, to [email protected] or whatever the att email address is... that or just comminicate via email only. email will be killing mms eventually anyways... why anyone still uses mms is beyond me. "you have a damn smart phone, switch to email already !"
who knows how many dirty pics from dirty girlfriends have been missed!?!? :/
hey I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this yet, as I can't find any info about this in any forum so far:
Whenever I flash a rom, this issue doesn't show up right away, but it always does, regardless of phone or build. Currently every sms message I send is stuck in a "sending" status on my device. The recipient always gets the message, but my phone thinks that it hasn't been sent. So, whenever I reboot my phone, if I haven't cleared all of my threads, my phone will resend every sent message on my phone. If I flash the same rom on top of itself, it goes away for a few more days, but it always comes back. Again, this is regardless of rom and even phone (D1, Eris,fascinate, DX, and incredible). Does anyone know what could be causing this? At the very least if someone could direct me to the property place to ask this question, I'd appreciate it.

I don't think it's a tower issue. When I send a message, in handcent there is s spinning wheel next to the message until the phone registers the message as "sent". this happens in it's own way across any and all sms apps on my phone. If I create and send the message in the stock messages app, it will show as sending in my other app and vice-versa. For the record, I have tried this with handcent, chomp sms and go sms.

This definitely sounds like a network issue. Have you tried sending a sms with a "dumb phone" and see if you have the same problem?

No, I haven't. I'll try it tonight when I get home from work. I sent a text to myself last night to test, and while it got to me immediately, it sent itself again 4 hours later. I'm not sure if that means anything significant or not but I'll try using another phone tonight.

This was a known issue with some phones and some SMS/MMS clients. Handcent implemented a fix, not sure about other clients. See this post in android forums for implementing the fix: http://androidforums.com/android-ap...on-without-resending-old-sms.html#post2136469

Thanks for this info!! I'm currently trying go sms again jaded on a reply in that thread, which seems to be working. I want to try the handcent fix, but I don't feel like taking the time to see how well consistently it works and risk text bombing people again. Hopefully some better themes start popping up

I sent a message today and it said that it went to 2 pages which is like 200 characters, but my girlfriend said she only got part of it which i thought was weird, so i tried sending myself the same message and it gets cut off and only shows the last couple words (which are from the 2nd page) but doesnt show any of the first page. So im not sure if this is happening to anyone else but if you could test it to see if its not just me, if anyone knows why this is happening please let me know :/
My long messages get split, but I never see anything on my phone that says so. It sounds like you're using a non-stock messaging program and it's not working right.

Text mesages are limited to 160 characters. It's kinda like a Tweet. The phone displays it as one big message in the SMS app. So it's a failing on Sprint's part to not deliver the messages. It has happened to me as well. I'll get the 2nd part first etc.
No I'm using the stock messaging app but the tghing is I send a message maybe 156 characters long but my girlfriend satys she doesn't get it or anythinng. So I texted myself by typing in my phone number into the recipient field and I send my self the exact same message and get nothing back so I. Made a message that was 2 pages long and sent it but only got the 2nd part back and sometimes get nothing back. I believe I found the reason for all of it though, a week ago we received an airave from sprint because the service at our house was horrible and I believe the airave is causing the problems to my phhone. I went the the store and sent myself that 2 page long message from earlier and I got both parts and I resent the messages to my girlfriend and she got them perfectly with nothing missing. But when I got home it stopped working. So I believe there is something wrong with the airave device I received. Also I tested the messaging stuff with my moms phone (we have the same epic touch 4g) and got the exact same results as I did.
I've been having the same issue as stated by OP since owning the phone and I use the stock app. I'm thinking I need to go back to using the handcent app that I had on my hero since there was an option to split and send after 160

I actually tried it on handcent and it failed to send aswell so it's either the phone, service, or this airave thing I received from sprint

Since it works without the airave, I'm leaning toward it as the problem.

This is the second time this has happened:
the first time, I sent texts to a friend and his replies never came to me until the day after. He confirmed the problem was with my phone by sending texts to other friends
Two days ago I sent a bunch of texts that never made it to the intended recipient until hours later or in a few cases, the next day!\
This morning I sent a text from my phone and haven't gotten a reply back from the recipient. I checked my google voice and it has record of every other text I sent today except that one... So I have no idea if the first one went through or not.
What's going on? Can a hard reset fix this problem?

This is a known issue that's been happening a lot lately and is related to Sprint service or lack of it. I've had these problems for the past few weeks, even though Sprint doesn't acknowledge this as a problem.

Nothing to do with GV?
This is DEFINATELY a Sprint related issue, I can almost guarantee it. It happens to myself, and also happens to friends and co-workers who are totally stock. Ohhhh Sprint, when are you going to get it together???
Sometimes I send a text to myself to see how long the delay is.
Wow. This blows, because it happened while trying to set up a date! Haha, ohhh welll!

Maybe an email would be quicker?
I had this issue with sending. I was thinking it had to do with my Google Voice integration and my airave (femtocell). Unplugged my airave and haven't noticed the problem again. I feel I could have undone my GV integration and gotten the same result. Before I unplugged the airave, i was constantly checking my GV app, if i didn't see the outbound message there, I would resend it.

For reasons I cannot determine, my Note 2 will stop receiving phone calls and texts.
Callers will here my phone ring on their end, but my Note 2 will not ring. Text messages will not come through either.
Making a call from my phone or rebooting will fix the problem; 20 missed texts will come at once and the phone will ring again.
The problem is, 1) that it happens at all, and 2) there is no indication when it does happen.
At&t has reset my network and exchanged the sim card, to no avail.
Has anyone else run into this problem?
Thanks!

I was having this issue on stock for two different reasons. 1) I disabled the at&t messaging app in the manage applications menu area. 2) I had a bad sim card.
Now I think issue number one was also because of issue number 2 because after the new sim card I had no problems disabling the at&t messaging app. The whole problem is you won't know unless you are sending yourself test messages form another phone. Good luck.
I forgot the other thing it was doing with the bad sim was not allowing me to use the internet while on a phone call, it was completely dropping data on a phone call so no text messages either.
