Vcast app update text message? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just received a txt message from Verizon asking me to upgrade my V Cast Apps.
Currently running Miui 1.6.24
The message reads exactly.
"FREE MESSAGE from VERIZON Please upgrade V CAST Apps. Select this link http://mobile.vzw.com/VCASTApps and the download will start immediately"
I don't think it's that important to me since I am running Miui but really they send text messages now? Do I need to worry about not having the VCast apps?

Don't worry about that. You may be able to disable that if you log into your account.

correct me if im wrong but i think every inc user got that message

So this was just a blanket message sent out to everyone. Doesn't make much sense why they need to send a text message when they could have just put the applications in the android market and had us update them that way.
Not saying that anyone uses them but still.

I have not received this text yet at all.

Nothing yet lol.
Sent from my Droid Incredible running a random CM7 nightly.

I got it too, deleted it on sight lol

I think Verizon as the same kind of CTO that we have - it doesn't matter if it's worthless, it only matters that we put it out there!

Yeah got mine this morning at 10:58. Not going to click the link. Already removed them to speed up my phone.

I got one today too. DELETE!
I wonder if it has to do with how much I've downloaded lately? I flashed CM7 and installed a bunch of Market apps over 3G. Might they be concerned I'm using an unregistered tethering app?

Got it this evening.. Found it very easy to ignore..
Running MIUI 1.6.24.0

Still nothing since I last posted lol. VZW doesn't love me

Market troubles

Any body have this issue? I have tried everything multiple hard resets, clearing cache/data and uninstalling updates. I have searched and found nothing in regards to this issue only that people reported apps came back after a few days, mine on the other hand has been weeks so I have to manually search for my updates which sucks. Any ideas would be much appreciated I'm running complete stock and have sent multiple emails to Google's support team or what they call support with no answers

How or when did this happen? Did you just open the market one day and see this or was it after a new phone or rom flash? Did you check the market website and try clearing out the registered devices?

First time it happened was a month ago using titanium after a hard reset, so after that I have hard reset multiple times and got rid of titanium, which I thought was the issue my market worked for a week and then randomly dead again. Haven't checked the web yet ill try right now

Thank you very much going to gibe it a go right after the Vikings game, I did go to the online market and its weird it shows all the phones I've ever used and carrier being sprint but on the sph-d710 it shows no carrier little odd
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Made the call, they say this is a known issue affecting any and all phones on all carriers with a fix in the works, not sure if I can completely buy in on this as no one else here has the same issue (so far) and none of my customers have had the issue either. Hopefully no one else is affected but it seems like it could be random

Cm7

does anybody know if there is a complete version of gingerbread cm 7 for the epic touch? the only 1 that I could find was half done.
that's the one... lol
Never looked into CM7. Did they just stop supporting it?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
yeah I do believe they stopped supporting it, and I love cm 7, too bad they don't pick it back up.

Long story short...this dev kangd cm7, stopped halfway thru, got a windows phone but kept telling peeps he was working on this rom. Happened with a couple other items like kernels also. Started something great, then moved on right away. ADD maybe?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
So is it a working ROM? Looking at the thread it had everything but 4g

Mostly yes.....give it a whirl, see if it works for you. I had it installed before.....think I got rid of it due to battery life though.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
I'm definitely loving it the battery life seems to be good. Everything works perfect except for 4 g. And that's definitely not an issue for me since I have no 4 g in my area.

by the way in case anybody wants to know the launcher that I'm using is called holo launcher. It's just like apex and Nova. But you can use it on gingerbread. Ya know I just wish we had more options for EL29 roms and gingerbread roms like this. It runs sooooo smoooth. It would be awsome if a dev picked this up and finished it! I dont think it has a lot left to do either. Refine the kernel for better battery life and add some cyanogen settings that are missing. I wish I could dev.

I'm on the latest stock (rooted) ROM on w/the LG8 modem. I only use the stock messaging app. Every time this happens I have to do a factory wipe. What do you think the problem is? I'm tired of missing out on all my messages.
i just noticed this issue a couple days ago. and its pissing me off... i read somewhere on here last week it could be from the airave if you have one

I don't have an Airave. Sh*t is pissing me off. I haven't changed any settings. I blame Sprint. I'm about to throw this phone through the wall, I can't take this anymore.
Try a ##scrtn# from the dial pad. It just wipes the provisioning data, will reboot and reprovision on the network. Usually solves texting issues.

Check for an outage in your area, its happened to me in the past, lasted about 2 weeks tho
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Had this issue. After I guess too many ROM flashes. Called sprint and fixed it in 5 mins. Just make sure your on a TW ROM and no air rave here.
You can also try updating profile and prl then rebooting. That helps me sometimes as well.

Sprint has been doing quite a bit of system/tower maintenance recently. I went 3 weeks with service interruptions very frequently. Called sprint and they confirmed maintenance and gave me a small credit.

Generally yeah but there's way too many impatient people around
Also, it helps me because I don't have any apps on the Play Store set to auto-update. I'll normally check once a week and update the ones which I feel need updating. I only actually do that because there's been many a time where I've installed an update and it's been much more unstable than the prior version. It then means I have to look around the net for an apk of the previous version

How do you get rid of the godforsaken images in the conversation view? (not the conversation list). All of mine are stupid default letters :crying:

I don't think there is. It's only available in the conversation list, unfortunately.
I think they should add an option to get rid of Sender images if the sender isn't in your contacts. That way, your contacts images will stay while the rest would then be gone

TV App Problem

I got the phone yesterday and I can't seem to finish setting up the TV App cause I'm getting the same error over and over, is anyone else having this problem?

Mine isn't working either. (using T-mobile M8) I wonder if it has something to do with TV providers being selected, I chose over the air maybe it cant access that data correctly (although it does come up with the most extensive list of over the air channels I have seen for my area some of which I've never even gotten with my 8 rooftop)
It sucks that you cant set up the remote without finishing this setup.
EDIT:
Just tried it with time warner setup and TV provider not listed it still wont work.
Same error here on TMobile M8 and Viper Rom

Getting the same error on my wife's Verizon One M8. I was able to set mine up just fine, same type of phone, just a couple of hours before she tried hers.

I set it up the night that I got it just fine. T-Mobile M8 running Viper Rom. Best bet would be to go into Settings>Apps> and clear out the data for the TV app, then try again? If not then idk
I tried everything! Clear out app data. Uninstalled update. Restarted the phone. Etc. Nothing seems to work. The weirdest part is that I was able to do it just a couple hours before she tried. Doesn't make any sense!
