I am running CM 7.1 RC1 (I believe that is the one).
I am having an issue with texting that is driving me nuts. Whenever I receive a text that is 2 pages long, it will send the first text and then split the second one up into two separate messages, even though they don't fill the character limit.
Basically it's like this..
0001/0003: Text page 1..blah blah..
0002/0003: Text pa
0003/0003: ge 2.. blah blah..
Make sense? It's annoying as hell, and I'm not sure what's causing it. There are also those obnoxious numbers before the messages as well. Occasionally it will receive them like it's supposed to, but most of the time it splits the second page. Regardless of if it splits the second page, it always has those damn 0001/0002 numbers beside the next. It used to be (1/2) and such.
I flashed an HTC Sense ROM and updated my PRL thinking that was it, and it didn't seem to help. I'm thinking I missed something really simple, but I don't know what it is or where it is.
CM7.1 RC1
Tiamat SBC Kernel
PS: It happens on other ROMs too, so I'm not thinking it's something strictly with CM.
Thansk for all the help. You guys are awesome.
I've had that too, on all sorts of phones.

It's nothing that is going to stop me from using my phone, but it is pretty damn annoying.. That is for sure.
Never had that problem. Received a 15 page message this morning with no message splitting.

I've been on vaelpak for a while because it was fairly stable and didn't give me too many problems. But it wouldn't pick up gps and crash when I tried to update google maps. So I jumped ship to the almighty cyanogenmod. It was cool except for the fact that angry birds wouldn't install and it was using the stock camera, but I fell in love with how quick it loaded pics. Then I saw it didn't have visual voicemail and when people called it only said try again later, no message leaving. so I tried google voice, but when it asks to call to get a special provisioning number, it hangs up every time at three seconds. Finally I gave up and found frost rom, seemed like a dream.. Htc camera, voicemail app included, aosp look. Still voicemail didn't work. Still when I try to use voice it hangs up after exactly 3 seconds. What can I do? I want to eventually use cyanogenmod when 4g and gingerbread are running, so its imperative I get this fixed

With a non-sense ROM you have to use google voice. Its supposed to hang up, right after it hangs up press the back button and it should finish up the process. Then go into your settings and set google voice as your default voicemail. It will email you when you receive an email, then it will download the voicemail to the music folder of your phone and then you can listen to it only on speaker phone which is a pain in the ass.
This is one of the main reasons I am running Warm. Sprint VVM is so much simpler
Well I still can't get it to work. I guess I'll look into warm
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Ouch. I used warm but it went uncommonly slow. Went back to frost, its perfect besides the voicemail thing. If anyone sees this after the bump and has a solution that's be great, otherwise I'll just deal with it
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Make sure you never blocked the text number from cyanogen roms. If you went to sprints website and blocked that number your VM wont work, go to sprints website and delete that blocked number.
If this helped please hit the thank you button.

Warm is pretty fast with the stock kernel from what I have seen. But unfortunately it wont work if you upgraded your radio.

Can you explain a little further what you are taliking about here. I just made the switch to CM6 but I am in sales and can not afford to miss a voice mail. I used an app to block an SMS message from 9016 but I don't think you are talking about the same thing.
I just instaled visual voicemail from titanium backup. Worked like a charm except for the annoying text messages I had to blacklist from handcent.
This happens about many times a day when I choose a contact from my past messages it opens a totally different contact that may or may not have been visible in the list. Also occasionally when i am typing it double types part of the word so if I type "really" it might be "reareally". Anyone else get this?
Which ROM? Have you tried using an alternative app?
I am using stock 2.3.3. I just downloaded handcent and it seems to work good so far. Its no big deal , just curious.
I had that issues with the stock ROM as well. I use Handcent as well and don't have that issue.
That said, it appears to be an issue on the Thunderbold too. Apparently Verizon and HTC are aware about it, according to what my VZW rep has told me.
Thanks for the infomation.
that is a problem with android, not HTC. Google has acknowledged the problem but there has not yet been a fix released.
Nope, doesn't seem like it happens on AOSP Android. My cousin has the sensation and the double word thing happens to me and him. We just use handcent.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App
I can't say that I ever had that issue with AOSP. I used Handcent most of the time then anyway because I preferred the interface to AOSP.
Never had this issue on cm7. I get weird errors too. For instance, if I type in landscape and send it then go portrait the last word I typed is shown. Sometimes after I reply to a message the message I sent shows as new. Unacceptable.

It is definitely a bug that has plagued android for a long time. Here is a post where you can read about the different bugs that Android SMS has. Once again, this is not specific to HTC devices. I used to experience this same problem on my fascinate.
http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/31/android-still-has-horrible-text-messaging-bugs-thatll-get-you-f/
yeah i get that bug where you see a text you recently sent as a reply and the threat still has an unread.
Hello all.. Ok here is a weird on, well maybe.. Does this happen to anyone...
SO I get a message and pull down my status bar, and click on it.. Lets say its John.. I go to Johns thread and see the mesage, and I notice it says a different name at top then john.. Lets say Rachel... I am in Johns thread and I send a message it goes to Rachel but shows up still in Johns Thread.. Essential meaning it goes to wrong person.. I have to stare at the top to make sure it is right person now.. It doesnt happen all that much but I have sent messages to people that I did not mean to because it had put a different name on the top...
Has anyone else seen this??? Any ideas?????? Its driving me nuts.. I have seen it on the Ratings in the market people have complained about it, but not sure if its handcent or something on my phone?
Thanks

If people have complained in the market about the same problem its not your phone it is handcent... I don't use handcent so I can't really help you further than that... I would look into a different messaging app until that is fixed...

I've used handcent since my first Android device and have never encountered this problem, or any problems for that matter.

Welp, there's a free 'thanks' for ya. Anyway, I read about someone having this same issue, but I don't remember if they stated it was specifically for Handcent or not. Me personally, I've been using handcent for a while now, and I've never experienced this problem, nor am I now.
However, I rarely use the notification bar shortcut to get into handcent. I'm using the ICS lockscreen through WidgetLocker, and left circle is handcent, so that's what I do 99% of the time to get to my messages.
Not sure if it's an issue of getting there with the notification bar or not.
ill trying using the actual icon instead of the staus bar for a while, see if that makes a difference..
Just a thought (not sure that it would actually help) but have you disabled all options under the stock message application's settings? Also if you could post/pm your handcent settings.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
yes. at point stock was removed as well....
what do you mean post setting? example??
Have you tired reinstalling the app? Or clearing your Dalvik and cache? Clear app data?
This usually clears things up. I have never had this particular issue... Do you have any of Handcents add ons installed? Perhaps the issue is with one of those...? Just some thoughts
yes done all of that.. still not helping issue... it doesnt do it all the time either... just sometimes but annoying enough...
I mean post your handcent settings.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
what settings do u want? lol there are hundreds
There are not "hundreds". Mainly any that would be specific to app functionality and send/receive settings.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
well there are ALOT of settings within handsent that can be changed.......
but here are my send message settings
Comp check, is on
auto conver to mms
auto resize pic
quick attach
prevent resend
sms to email gateway are the only things checked...
In receive settings
handcent delivery report
auto retrieve
roaming auto retrieve
timestamp is default
self check
are all checked....
And you said you removed the stick messaging app from your system?

i did a wjile ago... hve it now made no difference....
what rom are you using? my wife has said this has happened to her. she is still using midNight 5.3 (EC05/Froyo); she can be technology challanged so I figured she either saved a phone # twice on 2 people. Trying to grab the phone away from her while she is feeding her words with friends addiction is tough though!
I have been using handcent since I had the moment and on my epic for over a year. I've never seen it happen. Not that I haven't had any issues with it; but they usually fix things. This seems really random though
im on acs ics v5.5... ive emailed handcent numwrous times about it.. no help yet
I've been using handcent for a very long time and also never encountered this problem. I've used about every single rom out for the epic since ec05 and had this app on my moment as well
So idk what could be wrogn.. I once had a problem where I sent a txt to the wrong person cuz of this app but its not the way u said it happened it was cuz of low signal and txts not sending so they started saving some as drafts and some kept retrying and 2 got mixed up and sent to the wrong people lol
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
yeah it is very strange.. and I have sent some messages that should not have been sent to that person.... But i never payed attention the top sender... It will say one name but show a different persons thread.. I just have to pay attention now and be careful not to hit send till I know the right person is at the top...
I just recently flashed mikrunny's v1.01 and ever since I did so I keep getting this random text message from the number 6250 and the contents usually say either vzwnmn:1 or vzwnmn:2. At first it didn't bother me but now its starting to annoy me. Any idea of what it means/is.

Its was am idea Verizon had to let you know you had an email...turned into a bug. Forgot how to disable it lol
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
There are two ways to disable it. The easiest is to go into the message, push menu, and select block messages. I think it will ask you to set up a password, so do so. It will then say no messages found. Press menu, block list, and then press the plus button, and add 6250, and press okay. Then back out, delete the message, and you should never see another one again, until you flash a new rom.
The second option is to go to the my verizon website and go to the sync options and turn it off, but I always have trouble finding it and it doesn't stick between flashes either, so the phone way is just as good.
Thanks for the help. I love this community. Probably the most helpful out there

Does anyone else get this popup when texting a lot? The popup refers to something along the lines of "A large number of messages are being sent blah blah" and I just tap "OK". The thing is, is that they show as sent already so why would it even tell me this (Hello Android, are you stupid?). And why on earth would I/anyone ever tap "Cancel"?
It happens when I'm texting to several seperate people but quite often, I guess I text too much for Android to handle lol? I found another thread on this but all people could suggest was to "Try a different SMS app or reboot". To me, that's not any sort of solution but a temporary bandaid and a very inconvenient one. I bought a Nexus for the stock fast experience, not the bloated one with bugs.

Stock on 4.0.4 CM9. Apparently it's a feature build in to android. It happens across all android builds it seems. It can be "fixed" but why no one does I have no idea. When I text a LOT, and I mean like 100-200 within an hour or less.
I've seen a few other threads on this topic, and I realize its a pretty crazy (seemingly arbitrary) limitation. But how the hell are you sending ~150 messages an hour?
IMO, if you have to send 200 messages an hour, you need to just pick up the phone and call someone.
