[Q] Missing sent and received texts - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Just recently starting yesterday, I've been having this problem.
Many of my texts I send show as sent on my phone, but are never actually received. Also, I receive many texts that never show up on my phone. (I only know I got them because of Google voice)
It's not LOS because random texts will get through, I've rebooted and have the same issue, and im running LoSD which detects nothing.
Im running EK02 and using Google voice, though I used both of them prior to these problems, so i don't think its related.
Anyone else having this problem? Its very frustrating
Thanks in advance

Before posting have you had Sprint reset you in the system or have you updated your profile

No I haven't.
Im not sure if this is what you mean but I've had the OTA update notification pop up alot. I always say install later though because I don't want stock
Edit: just updated my profile and PRL, ill see if that fixes the problem
Sent from my SGS II

Updating PRL and profile didn't work unfortunately
I also reflashed my ROM after stock-odin'ing. still have the problem.
It's even happening on Stock EG30.
Should I call Sprint? Maybe something wrong with the phone?

[Q] Not Receiving Texts

I know there are several topics on the same issue, but mine seems to be a little more unique. I am running a rooted evo on myn's warm 2.2 rls 5. I have updated my PRL and Profile umpteen times. I am unable to receive ANY text messages until I make a phone call or check my voicemail, at which time they all come flooding in at once. I have had sprint reset my phone once which solved the problem temporarily for a few hours, and it is now back. This is the most frustrating issue for me, as I text quite a bit. I can send absolutely no problems to verizion, AT&T and sprint users alike and they receive fine, where I do not get their reply. Is there any advice, this came randomly out of the blue yesterday and has been boggling me since. I am on a fresh wipe (Caulkins wipe all, fresh install). I connect fine and downloaded 28 apps from the market no problem on the network and also get 4G. I am boggled.
Any help is greatly appreciated, and I can provide more information if needed.

Yes. I RUU'd back to all stock, unrooted as well w/ S-On. The problem is now less unique to me. Several other people in the same area are having the same exact problem, having to call their voicemail to get the text messages, then having them stop when the phone call is hung up. I am receiving a repalcement Evo this afternoon hopefully.

Can't send texts?

I have no idea what happened, but on I Thursday (I *think) I was no longer able to send texts (no idea if I can still receive them, I don't get too many). However I think I can still get calls (Again, not sure). At first I thought MIUI was starting to glitch on me or something so I went back to CM7.0.3.1. I tried to update my radios from the latest EVO Gingerbread release but it doesn't work with ClockworkMod 3.0 I guess.
What do I do?
Well I guess I screwed something up when setting up Google Voice I think. Now people get "The recipient you are sending to has chosen not to recieve messages." whenever they text me. I don't know what I did.
Same problem
I'm having the exact same problem, I lost the ability to receive texts around the same time. If you did get it solved, let me know.

No, didn't find anything. I just resorted to using Google Voice for texting; after Googling around and making a thread on reddit, nothing has worked.
Did either of you recently try wiping battery stats? I've found that if I wipe battery stats with ClockworkMod, for some reason I lose the ability to receive texts.
Same thing happened to me only it highjacked my incoming calls and texts....I tried everything, including deleting my Google acct.,..called Sprint, I had to unroot my Evolution, put stock ROM back on, called them back, we were able to input some codes in the dialer. to reset phone. The leech known as Google Voice is finally gone, rerooted, good to go. SPRINT was actually cool with me being rooted. SPRINT kicks ass! Good luck!

Really?! Do you remember what the numbers were or if Sprint has them on their website or something?
Google sprint tech support, their toll free number will pop up, call from a landline, not your cell so they can reactivate your phone

[Q] EVO Not receiving texts

I am a noob to posting but not new to reading this forum nor rooting.
I have an EVO 4G and just flashed AOKP build 33 with GAPPS 3-17.
I have Google Voice installed and have used it with no problems for almost a year now.
Just yesterday when I flashed AOKP build 33 my phone quit receiving text messages. I still receive them on my Google Voice account on my phone and on the computer.
GV is set to have my text messages go through my text client and my text client is set to the default messaging app.
I have tried flashing to recovery nandroids of previous Roms and states of Roms and that did not solve my problem.
I didn't see anyone at the AOKP thread who has had the same problem.
What can I do? Please help.
*apologies for posting this if there is a better place for it to go but after making it through all of the results on my searches about this with no solution I am extremely frustrated and need a solution.
Have you tried uninstalling GV to see if that solves the problem? My phone did the same thing for a while with google voice and I never understood why, but uninstalling GV took care of my issues. You will probably get the text messages a few hours to a few days late, or at least that is what happened to me

So do I need to do more than just uninstall and re-install the app? i.e. the whole thing with un-linking my number and voicemail and everything?
If you uninstall it, I def would suggest doing the full uninstall procedure,..the unlinking, etc.

Giving it a shot now. Thanks.
I'm worried though, without GV I will have no option for text messages.
How's that? What did I miss? You don't have a stock messaging app, or you don't have a sprint phone #?

no dice
I disabled my GV account and un-linked it from my number, restarted and still no incoming texts. Any other ideas?
Make sure somehow you have the latest radios and such maybe? Have someone text you again now that its all undone and see if the new message will go through. Like I said, even after disabling GV, it took 3 days for the lost texts to come through.

I've had someone texting me throughout the process to no avail. I am working on updating the profile and the PRI/PRL but have to load a sense ROM. Is that the same as the radios? Haven't really dealt with radios before.
Any towers being worked on in your area? I've had no incoming texts for 4 weeks now, due to a tower upgrade (LTE). The only way I could get a text was to make a phone call (typically called my voicemail when I wanted to check for texts). Supposedly this is done as of today...
Worth it for the LTE though!
Resolved
Thanks guys. I ended up just flashing a MikG ROM and it corrected what ever was wrong. Then flashed my AOKP ROM and we are back up and running. Still have no idea what it was.
I'm having same issues, ive been switching back and forth between ROMS to see if i can find one that works. I removed Google voice from my phone, and deactivated it online to see if that fix it. but not working still.
I still only get texts when i make a phone call.
Mik G worked for me as well
Those who are having the problem, are you restoring a backup of GV with data?
Remember, especially with Google apps, there are a lot of updated features for ICS and backups from Gingerbread will not work efficiently. It is best to start from scratch with these apps, especially seeing that Google voice pull most of its data from the cloud... no real need to restore data with it.

Problem receiving text messages

Does anyone have a problem receiving text messages? It seems like sometimes I don't receive messages from people I was in the middle of a conversation with, then I reboot my phone and I get them

Update your prl. Sprint may be having issues with towers near your location.

Location? You may have sprint working on your towers.
What version of Free GS3 are you running? Are you using the stock messaging app? I've been running this ROM and haven't had the problem you have described, perhaps re-flash the phone fresh and see if you're still having problems. If you are, then I would do as FL0OD suggested, sounds like a reasonable thing to do
no problems receiving normal texts. Some roms have MMS issues atm, which may also affect longer texts or group texts.

v0.1.1 & I've re-flashed the phone, and I always keep updating the PRL. It doesn't seem like I'm having problems now, but I still feel as though I'm getting messages late and such. Is there a way to go on my sprint account (from my pc) to check what messages have been sent to me, then check my phone and see if they reached me?

Sms issues

I have only had my Sprint GNote4 since Friday morning and i love the phone. But, i started having a odd issue today. All of the sudden my phone will not send or receive sms text messages, it just says message failed to send. I am using the stock messaging app, however i also tried hangouts and got the same result. What is even more strange to me is how i get texting to work again. What seems to work is i attempt to make a phone call, it immediately fails, but then on the second attempt the call goes through. ...then my text messages all go through. I apologize if someone has posted this, but i didn't see anything about it when i searched.
Anyone see this issue too or am i just special?

Do you by chance have an airave and live in an area being upgraded? Had that issue where I live. If so, turn off the airave and see if it changes the issue. Sprint has a newer version they will swap out if this turns out to be the problem. Hope this helps.
If you mean the update in the system aettings, yes i did try that. Thanks for replying though.
No, i do not have an airwave, but i do believe i am in an area with Spark, i have the litttle swirling star icon next to my LTE icon. Thanks getting back to me.
Here is what it looks like. Sorry if i sound noobish, i just switched to Sprint.

Thanks for the tip, i will try it the next time it happens. Im thinking of flashing a custom ROM to see if it is some sort of bloat crap causing it.
Using the phone here in india on a cdma carrier. outgoing sms works fine. Incoming sms dont! Tried to work around a lot. no avail. Ooh and on GSM sms works fine. but on cdma. nothing

I am still having the issue, and I also have found that my phone calls are not coming through all of the time. I am starting to suspect my SIM may be the cause. I am currently using my phone with LTE disabled to see how it goes.
Do you have adblock or another ad blocking app installed? If so remove the app and see if that fixes your issues.
No adblock apps installed. It happens on stock and custom roms too.
