Warning! Text messages being sent to wrong people

I was just curious as to how many people are experiencing this same problem. It happens on occasion and randomly rooted or not. I was just wondering how many of you out there are having the same issue? Only on the Evo? How often? How consistent? And if you have any fixes or ideas on what may be causing this? Its very frustrating. I have read on the Android site where this is a know issue but they didn't seem too worried about it. Any help or advice would be much obliged. Thanks in advance!

Happened to me once....bad instance too. Talking to a girl and it sent to my brother...well that didnt end well.

never happened to me
EDIT: If I'm not mistaken that bug has been fixed in 2.3.1 or 2.3.2...now just to wait for them to get the update to us.

You are correct. They closed the bug report and announced that the fix was being released two days ago. The post announcing the release also has links to the relevant patches. The announcement is here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9392#c1620

Ive had this exact same problem a few times, and the first time i had an experience similar to Locoboi187's story..

Is this a firmware update or some other kind of update? This is annoying as all hell.

It used to happen to me a lot. I always delete all my messages after I write one just to avoid any issues.

It is an update by Google...we just have to wait for HTC to sense-ify it and release it to us. Or you can try a gingerbread rom.

You could try using handcent sms instead of the stock messaging app. That is suppose to also fix the problem.

Handcent almost got me shot by my girlfriend lol... sent a FB convo to a homie, while copying and pasting his name was on the thread the whole time. Sent the message and come to find out that the ENTIRE FB convo sent to my girl instead of my homie... Needless to say handcent sms has been REMOVED lol.

Cerberus security app wont take pic of potential theif (market version)

hey guys, I just bought Cerberus! (The beta 2.0 works perfect btw link provided in another post below this post)
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lsdroid.cerberus&hl=en
Seriously awesome security application for Android.
Tried the beta for GNEX a few weeks ago, worked perfect, had it on Eagleblood ROM. Bought it today, now Im on AOPK Milestone 2 ROM, everything works perfect except it wont take pictures of potential thief when I do the the pin code or swipe lock wrong.
Anyone with AOPK M2 have Cerberus and have success?
Just to clarify, https://www.cerberusapp.com/ everything works on the security end like tracking, sending messages and locking the phone etc through the website. Only thing that wont work is snapshot of thief when code done wrong at lock screen.

Try asking Roman directly in his thread.. he is usually very good with getting back to people + he's a friendly guy! Try the thread on RW though....

update!
Just tried the old beta 2.0 apk and it works fine. (picture snapping of potential thief)
so its the market version that has issue.
I emailed Cerberus support about this.
Gonna stick with the 2.0 beta cerberus for now!

NP. Best security app really.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17156337/Cerberus.apk for the ICS beta, in case you cant get the front facing cam to take pics of potential thief. (only problem im having)
all works perfect in the beta link i provided.
Let me know if the market version works for you in that problem Im having.
If it works for you then its gotta be just a bug which the support team is aware of and should fix it soon.

[PATCH] ICS Call echo FIX + [potential] car dock audio fix (Update II - 04/30/12)

FOR AT&T LEAK BASED ROMS ONLY. NOT FOR CM9 or gingerbread!!!
Hi all,
No more call echo
This fix uses the proper T989 audio parameters so noise suppression actually works like it should (car dock should work too in theory). On top of that is Samsung Diamond Voice Engine which really makes calls sound great.
It fixes the issue at the core, within the audio libraries. The audio paramaters and noise cancelling routines now work as they should.
UPDATED
I think I finally fixed this f$cking issue once and for all. For real this time. Try out the newest update I have attached to this post (Diamonds.zip)
This patch is a breed of libraries from the Galaxy Note and the Galaxy Blaze. It took me a very long time to put it together. But with a lot of work and hex digging I found the perfect combination.
I don't even think T-Mobile's ROM is going to sound this good
You might still have to turn down your volume a notch if you have a troublesome case, but I am going to make a bold statement and say that this should fix the problem for a 90% portion of you
Also--by its nature--this newest patch should fix the car dock audio problems. I can't test it to confirm. Please let me know if it does.
Report back with results!
Devs you are free to use. Credit is all I ask I spent lots of time on this and not enough time working on a project due tomorrow >_<
To the kind folks that donated to me in the past few days. thank you and I will thank you personally and address my PMs too. Been on and off the grid because of finals.
Cheers

Dear sweet baby jesus yes!! DLing, gunna see what happens! ur the effin man, seriously.

I've made two phone calls yaldak and asked if they here an echo. They both said no..
1st call was w/ case
2nd call was w/o case
Before it was hit and miss for me some ppl would complain if echoing bothers were not..
So far so good brother
Edit 1 : have not had an oppurtunity to test compass.

I know people keep saying he fixed it, but if he did. I would expect he would have released it. Unless he is doing the community a disservice and trying to squander the fix for him self only for glory or what ever other reasoning.
Also to the OP. What do the display firmware in /etc have to do with the audio echo? and i understand you're trying to fix the compass so is that why the sensors lib is in there?

Based on his new ROM being a beta I think TDJ is testing a fix same as Yaldak.
Hopefully they both work.

The approach used in the Darkside ROM is different. I did a library comparison to verify it.
While the approach should work because it appears to reverse the noise redcution switch (hence why the TDJ says to keep it on), this approach fixes the problem at its core--audio library side. Noise reduction will work exactly as it did in Gingerbread. Some people in that thread are still reporting the call echo issue because the audio paramters are off in all of the Skyrocket-based roms.
A LOT of work and experimenting was done to narrow it down to this one stupid file.

There is no display firmware. That's sensor firmware. This is preliminary work toward fixing the compass, as such it is a work in progress. It's not a beautified patch just yet

I had echo before and using NexusMod.
Made calls to a POTS, VOIP, and another cell phone.
These people had complained about the echo before and report these calls sounded fine.
Thanks and great work.

Hey Yaldak,
I'll test this out on RomChicago tonight, which is based on your base.
As far as the compass goes, I didn't even realize there was an issue with it until now. I'll check the parts bin to see what works.
This is why I use your bases, because you da man.

I don't see why not.

not only that when im back to gingerbread people says that they dont hear an echo but they hear my voice like im coming from out of space

Darkside's ROM has another approach to this issue....so that is probably why.
It is also likely that--since you had the issue with gingerbread--your phone might be defective. My GB audio was crystal clear.
I'm up to 8 phone calls (2 incoming 6 out) in which the recipients reported no issue.

Is it difficult to apply this? Just asking cuz I never applied a patch. Switching roms, navigating thru root explorer, etc no problem.. but I don't want anyone wasting time explaining it if its something you believe is too complicated to do so. I'd just love to have call echo fixed so people stop telling me about something I already know. Never had call echo on GB. (I have tried the search but with how many posts there are with 'how to' and 'patch' in them its quite difficult and easier to ask)

Dumpstate su request?

Hi everyone,
A couple of minutes ago I got a really random su request from something called dumpstate. Would anyone happen to know what this could be I've never seen it before.
Does anyone know some way that I could find out what app pushed the request, or possibly help find out if I actually have something malicious on my phone now?

appears to be an issue with the new SuperSU update which pushed today (v1.00).. and possibly the Note2 (and other devices). Happened to me and a few other folks on the CleanROM v4.2.5 thread. I uninstalled the SuperSU Updates ( and rolled back to v0.99), and so far... so good.

This is why I love this forum. A noob like myself can search on an issue and most likely find where one of the more seasoned members have more than likely come across it and have a potential fix or workaround! :good:

Yup... Chainfire uploaded a work-around update v1.01. (which basically is preventing the infinite dumpstate loop). Thx

Thank you for finding this. I was wondering why I started having random freezes and reboots and dump states, but haven't been able to sit down and figure it out.

[GUIDE & Q&A THREAD] SlimKat for the T Mobile Galaxy S4 Android 4.4 Beta 1.3 Dec 8

​
[SIZE=+2]This thread has been created for people to share issues,
question and help
while using SlimKat 4.4 for the T Mobile Galaxy S4​[/SIZE]
PLEASE make sure to thank the entire Slim Team for their dedication to this ROM
Please do not clutter any Development thread with non related development chatter
*​
I am not the developer for SlimKat, SlimBean, Slim Fast, Fat Boy Slim, or anything else with Slim in the title.
This is NOT a development thread and as such is designed to be a little more noob friendly than a development thread. Please don't hessiate to ask any questions you have here, but please do try to search first to see if there is a known sollution to your issue before posting a new question about it.
If you have development related bug issue, send an bug report to the Slim team. See post 2 for instructions.
Please see this note from the Slim development team and PLEASE take it to heart!
Please note: SlimKat and KitKat in general is in an early stage. Still some apps are not compatible and still some devices have to fight with smaller issues on the other hands a lot devices are already quiet stable. Whatever please keep in mind that this builds are labled for a reason as beta builds. As a lot slim user know we only tag our builds stable when they are already 100% stable and all features are back. But you will be surprised how stable it is already

Indivudal apps need to be tweaks to run on KitKat. If you have a favorite app that doesn't work, check with the developer of that app first to see if it runs on 4.4 before asking why it doesn't work here. (If it was last updated in February of 2012 or something like that, it hasn't been tweaked for KitKat.). In short, it's probably not the rom's fault.
As of December 8th Blk_Jack is back on XDA with a new thread for Slim Kat!
Click here to view it
That is a development thread. Keep your posts there development related. That does not mean "How come my phone no boot?" or "Thx for this ROM iz smooth like butta!". That means specific issues tht haven't been reported 900 times previously. Search that thread for a similar post to yours BEFORE posting!!!

Reporting Bugs:
The Slim Team has a very specific way they ask that bugs be reported. You can do it right through the bug report feature of the ROM. But do it this way...(This is right from the Slim site. It is the best way to make errors known to the Slim developers)
When you submit a bug you want to make sure that nothing from your side is causing it. Otherwise your developer might be hunting a bug which doesn't really exist. The best way to achieve this is by doing the following.
1. Make a nandroid backup.
2. Perform a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system)
Now we have two different ways, 3A and 3B, depending on what kind of problem you're having.
3A. When you're having a problem with a ROM function, flash just the ROM without GAPPS etc. and boot back into the system. You will boot directly onto the homescreen.
3B. When you're having a problem with a 3rd party app in combination with our ROM then flash the ROM and GAPPS.
Boot now back into the system. You will boot to the setup wizard.
Log in to your Google account but make sure that you untick "Restore from my Google Account to this phone/tablet".
Finish the setup and open the playstore and download only the app you're having problems with.
Now when you're done with either 3A or 3B proceed with the following:
4. Now reproduce the bug (if possible more than once). After you reproduced the bug go into settings and SlimCenter and click on Bugreport. A bugreport.zip will appear on your sdcard in a directory called Slim.
5. Attach this zip in the correct thread along with your report. Please also write detailed description how we can reproduce the bug.
6. Restore your backup from point 1 and wait for a fix (don't ask for ETAs).

I know the device maintainers have been testing the S4 builds for a couple of weeks now and making improvements among their team. So you're not getting an early Alpha release here or anything.
The maintainer for the international S4 is very active in the i9505 forums and has been talking about SlimKat for a while, saying how stable it already is. That's pretty standard for the Slim team. They do not putz around with releasing buggy builds.
That said I'm sure it's not perfect yet. SlimKat isn't going to be 100% error free just yet and isn't going to help you create sustainable cold fusion or anything like that (yet...). So be prepared for a little wonkiness early on. But if history is any indicator, you can probabyl expect a really nice experience from from teh start.

Running good so far!! Missing some things from SlimBean that I really liked but being in beta they will eventually come. Will be my DD assuming I don't have any issues.

The main things are all the status bar tweaks (hiding battery and signal bars), no theme engine, quick settings are missing a few things, widgets on the lock screen. All I can think of right now.
Still a very solid rom though. Currently will be my DD.

You can enable the widgets for your lock screen. Only bug I'm confronting is that NFC doesn't turn off some times. I have to click it a couple times through the quick toggles. Besides that, I get FC's with gapps but that's been mentioned before.

I do look at people who love TouchWiz and I can't figure out how they put up with not being able to change the colors. This is like the single greatest feature in AOSP ROMs to me, even more than all the actually important tweaks that make AOSP run so well.

It's called Beta 1.1 Weekly and there is no changelog included with it so I imagine it's just some upstream updates and tweaks since yesterday and not a lot of major improvements. But an update is an update!

So far the beta builds give me trouble booting. I get hung on the splash screen a lot. It akes a bunch of chances to get it to boot. It always eventually works though.
Here's a list of what I've found is missing so far...
Transparent status bar
Dark Slim
Theme Engine
DPI changing in settings (Can probably still do it in build.prop)
List scroll animations
Probably more...
But it's all superficial stuff like this. The 'under the hood' type stuff all seems to work well.
