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 #?

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!

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.

OK I know this has been brought up a few times in the CM threads. I get this ghost VM notification on CM6 and on all the nightlys. I also am getting this ghost VM notification on the MIUI rom. I do NOT get this notification on ANY sense ROMs I have tried.
I read this Forum everyday as much as I can. I have tried search. Every thing that comes up close to what I have going on doesn't seem to get fully answered as to why this is coming up on some phones and not others.
I flashed CM6 and a few nightlys on my Wifes phone and She has NEVER received the *86 VM notification.
I am always updated to the most current PRL, PRI and NV. Nothing I have tried will clear this message. On the CM6 ROM I can hit the clear button under the notification bar and that clears it for a little while but then the damn thing comes back.
Can anyone explain this and offer up a FIX. I know I'm not the only one.
Any one have any help on this?

Thank you Brutus for the input.
I know all about that part of the set-up. This DOES NOT get rid of the Ghost notification. I still will get a notification that I have a voice mail (and YES I have checked to make sure my VM's are cleared out).
Just FYI I use google voice when I am on CM6 or nightlys. Google Voice works great but still will not clear the VM notification.

Dont skip my post I am going to say two diffrent things . First normaly you get the notification because you received a voicemail. The stock rom has a code writen in to block that text so that you dont see the notification when you receive a voicemail.
Now Jetdr I will try to answer your question here. I think your voicemail hasnt been provisioned. Click on your VVM app and hit menu, when you hit menu you should have 3 options, compose, search and settings. If you have a 4th option that says unsent or undelivered click it. When VVM sets up, it automaticly sends a voicemail to the server to setup your VVM. If that message doesnt get sent then it probably never will. You will have to uninstall the VVM.Apk and reinstall the app. One time when I was setting up CM6 I had to install the voicemail apk several times before I got it to provision correctly. If it doesn provision a minute or two after you install it then its not going to. Not sure if this is whats causing your ghost voicemail text but I am thinking this is it. The easiest way to tell is to just click the vvm app and see if it shows four options or three. It should only show three.
If you are using google voice you dont still have the sprint VVM installed do you? If you dont have the sprint VVM installed then I am not sure whats causing your issue considering my directions to fix your issue is in regardes to the sprint vvm app.
Hope that helps.
I've tried all that and more.... nothing fixes it. I've concidered calling sprint but don't want to ruin my insurance..

Twilk... thanks so much for the response. I did all you suggested and I flashed back over to the newest MIUI ROM and I still have the VM notification. I made sure I didn't have any voice mails before I flashed. The notification will not clear even with the settings selected to not show.
Initially it has the *86 number but when I change the VM settings to my number it of course then comes up in the drop down box with my number.
The same thing happens on CM ROMs.

My notification says 4 voicemails... so I'm wondering if when I rooted my phone I had voicemails.. I don't really listen to my voicemails.. i'd rather just receive a text from someone... I just wish that I had made sure to clear my box before I rooted.. not sure if this is the reason for it... but it doesn't seem like there are many users with this problem. I'm sort of anti-twitter or I would ask cyanogen myself.. this is soo annoying! Especially since I hate voice mail to begin with.. I don't read my bills much, but I think sprint charges for voicemail.. anyway I can cancel my voicemail service? Also they charge me to keep a spending limit.. I want to call sprint and ask to cancel my voicemail..

Updates ???
Feb 3 - 2011
Anybody ever figure this one. Or do we just clear the message on each reboot?
Clear dalv. and cache,then change *86 to your mobile number then block 9016 from your sprint account.I added youmail and mine works perfect.I get txt and VM very quick.If the person that left you the voice mail is in your contacts it will show them as leaving the VM and you can just tap on there pic and it will play the ones they left you.
And I have no phantom notifications or anything odd.

Here. That's the only known way to get rid of it. It's a PITA but it works.
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!

Had Evo since day 1. Rooted right away and have been ROM-happy, flashing my favorite as developers release them. Went from Fresh to Myn to MIUI and am now on my favorite, most stable and reliable rom: Deck v1.
Problem:
9 days after switching to Deck I stopped receiving sms messages completely. This is not an issue of the notifications for sms being turned off, nor is it a ringer issue. The text never comes through. I can send texts without issue, no problem.
Tried to fix this in these ways:
•*I made sure I wasn't blocking any texts; this can be done at sprint.com > my account.
• I called sprint so they could remove/re-add my sms messages which usually fixes this type of issue.
• I restored a nandroid backup taken at a point when texts were working.
• I tried restoring the stock image - then updating profile. Still wouldn't receive.
• Obviously rebooted 35 times throughout the course of all this (i have to say it, somebody will ask )
• Full wipe etc.
Nothing worked.
Called Sprint knowing they couldn't do a damn thing and would probably stop listening if they knew my phone was rooted. Long story short they sent me in to get a new Evo. Was worth a shot, I wasn't convinced it was a hardware issue (how could it be, sms is not dedicated to a particular piece of hardware in the phone) but I went in and did the swap.
New Evo, unrooted, texts worked! but wait, that's not all.
9 days after rooting again and installing Deck v1 - poof - no incoming texts. The exact same issue.
WTF is going on here?? There is nothing in logcat, absolutely nothing happens on my side when somebody sends me a text.
Google voice texts are a good emergency workaround but I want my native texts. Is this a deck issue?? anybody else getting this? i;ve ggogled for weeks now and nobody has come accross this particular issue. Also this issue wont fix itself. i went a almost a week the first time without noticing i wasn't getting texts.
Have you tried a ##786# reset? You will need your MSL code. Also, it will wipe all data from your phone, so take that into account. When you ##786#, let the list load and then hit "menu", and "reset".
When I first flashed to a GingerSense rom, I lost the ability to send/receive MMS and I was not able to connect to 3G at all. 4G and WiFi worked, but the 3G was nonexistent to my phone. After calling Sprint several times, one tech told me to reset my phone this way. I told him I would have to call back because if my phone was going to get wiped, I had to back everything up first and it would take a while. After I backed up all my app/data with Titanium and made a NAND back-up, I did it and it got my phone working right.
Hopefully you get the same result. Good luck.

Flashed back to a Sense/stock rom to do just that. Didn't help.
Whenever somebody has issues like mine it usually involves sending AND receiving. For me it's strictly receiving.
People also center these issues around MMS. Sending MMS is not an issue for me. I can send everything. I can't receive a damn thing.
That certainly is an oddity. I've been using decks 1.2 since C, and am currently on Z. I've never had any issues with not receiving sms messages (as far as I know...I suppose it would take someone to tell me that they sent me a message and I never replied, which I haven't got yet) I have never really seen this issue, except on my buddies stock hero a couple weeks. His problem was that he had never deleted any of his texts, so literally had like 10k messages or more in there. Once I was finally able to get all his damn messages cleared out (took forever...he wouldn't let me factory reset it) he was able to start receiving texts again. I'm sure that's not your problem, because you've been flashing and wiping, surely your texts have been cleared out...unless you restore them all. That's the only time I've seen that. I would've suggested maybe it was an issue on sprints end, which would not be unheard of, but if that was the case it wouldn't have worked on your new unrooted evo when you got it.
I saw in deck's thread that you already deleted the telephony.db directory, and that had no affect for you. I really wish I had some suggestions for you, but that is just odd. My first guess would've been a problem with sprint.
EDIT: Also, are you using the GV and Sprint integration? I don't use it, but I saw that if some settings weren't correct with that (from the google voice website) that all messages will go thru google voice, and not thru the native messaging app. Could that possibly have anything to do with it, maybe?
If you have Sprint/Google Voice integration, that is the problem. There are some funky things going on with Google Voice lately. Can't send messages from Gmail to a Google Voice number and have it register as a cell sms. The message is automatically sent to and only goes to the Google Voice Inbox.
I've had some sms trouble with all ROMs, not simply Deck's. It sounds identical to your issue. Google is the only constant between all ROMs. My problem was resolved by going into Google Voice settings, unchecking "Receive text messages on this phone," saving changes, then rechecking it and saving those changes.
I have lost the ability to receive sms numerous times. I am convinced it is a Google/Sprint integration issue.
I cant get text messages either. I can send all day and im testing, flashing roms, recoveries, I just unrooted as a final solution (so i thought) and nothing. Same crap. If anyone has a fix or if the fix is on another thread let me know please, thanks. Other wise im just gonna root back and say F! text messages
If you're on MIUI and didn't wipe, when you flashed it can cause these issues. Try to reflash, after doing a full wipe.
I can't get images from people... It just sits there saying downloading (mind you it is a 26KB file...
WTF
Any thoughts?
I've gotten lots of them, and sent lots of them with no issues, using stock messaging app..
Did you try restarting your phone? i had that same problem but my pictures were not sending, it said sending but never sent, i was also roaming with barely a signal(middle of nowhere).
But after i made it back to the city it sent.

I've rebooted and flashed new kernel... no bueno.
if you happen to use google voice integration you won't receive mms. you'll need to have the images sent to your phone number instead of your gv number.

I think the above is accurate IF you have a GV number AND a sprint number. However, if you started with a Sprint number and used GV integration (NOT porting your Sprint # to GV) then: MMS would arrive to your phone's messaging app, but not to GV app or GV web interface.
I took advantage of sprints GV integration months ago with my og EVO 4g, no problems. Picked up ET4G and now I can't send or receive MMS. Searching for a solution...
My wife had this issue on her ET4g. I updated profile, prl and firmware/software and it was resolved. In frustration I did all three before checking to see if it worked so I'm not sure exactly which of one resolved her problem. But mms send and receive fine now.

I only use GV for voicemail.
It is weird... I think the phone cannot receive Png files (take a screenshot and try sending it to someone).

I called sprint yesterday, they updated my profile, had me reboot, no dice. PRL update, no dice. Remove battery and wait a few minutes, reboot, no dice. Getting desperate, I loaded custom PRL 00001 for constant verizon roaming.... whaddya know, speeds increased, but still no functioning MMS. I'm tempted to reset everything on my phone, but don't really want to reconfigure everything. Ugh.
I'm not rooted, have not attempted root. I switched back to Sprint 60681 PRL, still no MMS. Suggestions?
I've also noticed that my phone doesn't upload to pics to twitpic or yfrog successfully while on 3g (via tweetdeck). I wonder if there's some radio hardware or software bug that makes uploading difficult/slow?

I guess I'm just not sure how a Hard Reset would change anything to suddenly allow MMS sending. I've tried handcent, then uninstalled and back to stock messaging app, still no dice.
Anyone want to hypothesize about how a hard reset would enable MMS?
Your problem may be that you need too go on the google voice webpage not app and delete you phone number off of it. I had same issue changing.devices. delete your number off the voice webpage uncheck it so its not assigned too any phone. Delete google.voice.from your phone. Re download it then do the carrier integration again when u first open it. Alot of people have this.problem everytime u change devices u need too do this. Even if its the same number. Went through exact same thing. Had same issue. Trust me try it. I actualy called sprint they had me reset prl and profike blah blah didnt work then said i needed too contact google. But i stumbled upon the solution in a forum for google voice integration

I send screen shots too people all the time.
I had this problem with my Hero but not my Photon or E4GT.
I have the same problem. Started some time last week. I called Sprint and they did like 5 resets, no luck. They told me to take it to the Sprint store.
So today I spent an hour and 20 mins in the Sprint store where they did all sorts of resets and system updates, no luck. In fact, he told me he had 3 other Epic 4g Touch's in the back that came back with the same problem, and he didn't have any new ones to give me. He told me to call back on Friday and see if he has any new phones in stock.
This whole issue was on a stock phone, did all sorts of hard resets. I just rooted my phone, still using a stock kernal though. Still having the same problem. EVERYTHING works except for MMS. Not only that, but when I try to log on with pictures.sprintpcs.com, the site is not working either. STRANGE... the other phone number on my account log in OK.
Any change's that can be made to the MMS proxy?
Hard reset solved it for me today. I reset, then sent an mms before installing any apps. Success! Then I reinstalled google voice. My guess is that my problem had something to do with google voice integration, & a new phone. I'd bet that the other new ET4G's at the back of your sprint store perhaps could be similarly solved? "de-integrate" GV then reintegrate?
Odd, I know. But all is now working well here.

I tried a hard reset no luck... Sprint tried it. I tried to root, no luck. Sprint will replace my phone. I just don't see how EVERYTHING WORKS except MMS. It makes no sense. Anoyne have any RTSP or Port changes that could be made?
I was having this problem when a friend sent me a MMS and it was stuck just saying download. I installed Handcent, opened the message thread, and clicked the download button. Worked right away.
SO my total time on this issue is now up to 7 hours total, an hour and a half in a store and 5 and a half on the phone with Sprint.
I FINALLY got them to admit that this was an account/network issue and not a phone issue. They opened a network issue and I have to wait 72 hours for a reply now.
For anyone that just can't seem to send or receive pictures, but the phoen says it sent, try checking out www.pictures.sprintpcs.com
In my issue, I can't even log into the site, it tells me that my phone number isn't a valid Sprint number... Mind you, from the square one, I TOLD SPRINT THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING AND IT WAS AN ACCOUNT ISSUE AND NOT A PHONE ISSUE!! They ignored me... they had me do at least 7 phone resets over 4 phone calls and 1 store visit. I tried to explain to them that even if my phone was broken, there is no wake a broken phone would make my picturemail website stop working too.
Finally I had them activate my old Palm Pre (OMG that thing takes 3 minutes to boot up, how the hell did I ever deal with that phone?) and I tried sending picture mail from there and nothing. So they opened a network ticket (Second one, because they told me they would open one two days ago and when I called yesterday they said a ticket was never open).
The next step... Talking to billing and seeing how they could compensate me for all my headache in this. $$$$
Update:
Spoke to someone from networking. They said that Sprint is in the middle of moving things to a new "Platform". This process involves moving accounts to a new platform and I was one of the lucky ones that didn't get moved correctly and had my account deleted.
So i flashed MIJJz BLEND ICS [FB21] about 2 days ago, ran into the known bug about messaging, where you can send but they will not receive, flashed the Steady kernel to get my recovery back and reverted back to my FB17 nandroid backup, everything restored fine and was working with the exception that i still could not receive any text messages, the strange thing is i can still receive picture messages just fine. so today i decided i'd had enough of using G-Voice and used Sfhubs EL29 Odin-OC restore to revert back to EL29 Rooted (as ive done to fix so many issues in the past) heres the kicker, i STILL CANT receive text messages while picture messages still work. Any input or suggestions here would be awesome. (sorry for long post but i wanted to be as detailed as possible)
Fixed - it was the "Receive text messages on this phone" setting in google voice, ive never ran into that problem before, thanks to kthejoker20 for saving my butt
Don't apologize for being detailed lol, it helps alot, but update your profile, PRL, reboot your phone. If not call Sprint and complain, they'll probably provision your phone (or whatever its called). Its possible its on the carrier end.

but you can send mms and sms? you can recieve mms but not sms? have you wiped data and cache? did you restore via tb? i havent ever seen such an issue that wasnt related to sprint doing work on my nearest towers but there may be better responses. I suggest clearing data/cache from mms app and try sending sms to yourself.

thanks for the quick responses guys, i've tried what was suggested, @justlovejoy, thats whats blowing my mind, the fact that i can send mms and sms perfectly fine and receive mms just not sms (i even get the "test" messages sent to myself on g-voice) im starting to think it might be something on sprints end. but before i call and try dealing with them i wanted to ask the community which seems to know more on a bad day than sprint ever has
//edit
Maybe i should read everything first too. Sorry.

called sprint, according to the rep they were gonna "re-trigger" the phone (id imagine this is what phatmann meant when he said provision) but it doesnt appear to have had any effect, still not receiving these sms's.
Been through this a few times since flashing to ics. I know its aggravating.
Mine stopped after installing the ICS4ICS them and freezing the stock messaging app with titanium. I trieddefrosting but the app would hang.
Had to uninstall tbu, then reinstall the theme. Brought everything back and worked.
Not sure why tbu hangs but ivee a suspicion that having the stock and ics messaging apps together with the build being a leak has something to do with it.
I use GoSMS and it usually doesntt give issues.
Hope this helps in some way.

have you tried sending from mobile sms? as in device stock messenger? or trying without google voice? maybe theres some interference going on between the two?
well the only two things I can think of are these. either its sprint towers or your phone has leftover stuff messing with it. try using calkulins format all then clean install the rom. also remember in titanium backup to only restore user apps not system.
Are you using google voice?
Install the GV application. If you recieve the texts with it installed, then you have "send texts to phone" off in google voice website.
