[Q] Problem with my Messages

I have searched everywhere for this answer, but I thought it would be worth a shot asking here.
I have been trying for a month now to get this problem fixed and its on my last nerve. When I send or receive a message from my girlfriend, it pops up as two names instead of one. (refer to the attachment) The contact named "David" pops in front of her name every time. I have tried reinstalling and deleting or even re adding both people's contact. Nothing has worked and would absolutely LOVE some input on this. It happens with a few of my other contacts, but this one is the one I use all the time so you can understand my torment.
I cant go into the thread to send a message, because everything i send goes to both people obviously (very annoying)
I appreciate any help....BTW I use handcent for messaging

Isn't it weird.... i didn't have one problem with this on 2.1. When i wiped everything... including cache... for SkyRaider the first time thats when it started. I have had to wipe many times for SkyRaider ROM updates and every time i do, i still get this problem in some form.
It wouldn't be ROM related would it... or is it a Froyo thing? grr

This pic shows it a little better.

did someone mess with your phone and save your girls number under david lee as well? Also, did you text both of them in the same message? Can you confirm that david lee is not receiving your texts as well?

No one has messed with my phone at all. I just checked again and they are both totally separate. David Lee does not have Chelsea's in his contact numbers and Chelsea does not have Davids.
Yes if i actually send a message through that thread it will go to both of them. With my brother's contact, its worse. When the thread pops up for his it's not just two people, its like 9. The only way to ensure that she only receives my message is to go to her contact and select the "send message" button with her cell number.

Did you originally send both of them the same message?

No, I never send either of them the same message and originally I probably sent a message to Chelsea and that's what it looks like everytime instead of her name by itself.

As you tell from this picture, it doesn't really fix it. I deleted his contact...un synced Facebook....uninstalled and reinstalled handcent to arrive at what I have in that picture. How in the Hell the number still shows up even after the contact is gone is ridiculous...

Is there anyone else who has a suggestion?

All AOSP roms have mms issue.

For some time now of have been trying to figure out why whenever I use a non sense based rom I have mms message download failures.
Come to find out, it only happens when I receive a mms that contains either an animated gif, or a gif with an audio attachment. I can receive mms messages that are just pics or plain text messages.
Again this is ONLY an issue on AOSP roms. All sense roms work as they should.
Can someone please look into this and see if this can be fixed?
Thank you.

Good luck, because you're apparently the only one who has this issue. I have never had any problems with video or audio MMS messages. However, my only experience with AOSP has been CyanogenMod. Never bothered with any of the others that have been recently released. So, give CM6 a try.

same here. no problems with mms on AOSP

I had the same problem until I tried MIUI...now they all work

Hmmmm. So all you guys can receive a mms that contains an animated gif with cm6 or miui?

You are correct despite what others say. ANYTIME the particular mms messages that you mentioned are sent while on AOSP they fail to download. No questions about it. I'm using the latest cm nightly but it has never mattered. You can only get gifs with sound and such via a sense rom on the evo.

There's a .zip in the Ultimate Droid rom thread someone posted that may help you. I don't have a link off hand, sorry.

Thats what I thought.
I have been banging my head on the wall for some time now trying to figure this out?
Is there a fix for this that you know of? If not, why is this issue never addressed?

What exactly was this a zip for?

Bump.
Wondering why this isnt looked into???

because its not a problem for the majority of AOSP users. if it was a major issue, it most definitely would have been address by cyan. you and the other guy who says it happens to everybody doesnt equal this being a major issue. not trying to me an ass.

Just checked with cm latest nightly. The mms does not download as you mention. I will have to look into this.....

i guess i must be special or something

Hmmmm........ I am pretty sure it is an issue with everyone. Have someone send you an mms that is an animated gif while you are on cm6 and See off you don't get a message failed to download error.

I agree with you. I was on CM6RC2 RC2 and couldn't receive any of those animated gif files. I clicked download and I got the error message that the download was unsuccessful.
However on the brighter side I was able to receive regular texts, video texts, and picture text.

Ya, atleast we are able to receive pics, vids, and texts.
It just gets annoying when I receive something and can't download it.
I wonder if the devs are aware of this?
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

After using CM6.1 RC2 for a few hours, I went back to MIUI, and couldn't receive or send MMS. I then went back to Fresh, and STILL had the problem.
Today, it went away. I was kind of lost.

I don't think that Android natively supports animated GIFs. I think they modified the browser to support it (or maybe it's native in the browser only). I don't know if Sense supports it outside of the browser, but if it does, it's something they included in the Sense image viewer.
If you save a gif image, it wont show animation. This might be connected to your problem.

Why is Go SMS working for everyone except me?

Go SMS has always been my SMS and MMS app of choice, and it always worked flawlessly for me; that is until I began using Jelly Bean ROMs. For the most part, it still works, but there has been one REALLY annoying issue that I can't seem to figure out. No matter what notification ringtone I set for a particular contact, that's not the one that plays when I do a test notification or when that person texts me. Is this an issue with my settings or with incomplete compatibility with Jelly Bean? I solved the problem by using Handcent, but I'd much rather be using Go SMS! Any help would really be appreciated!

Maybe because it hasn't been updated to be fully compatible with JB?

It works fine for me on jelly bean.
I have a related question. I want to use go SMS but it runs a constant service. Anyone know why? Is it possible to not have it run as a service? Drives me nuts.

Do different notification ringtones for different contacts work for you?

I never tried but will let you know.

I never signed into it in the first place. But maybe it was on by default, don't remember trying.

I think it signs in automatically when you I stall the app. Don't remember, used it long ago, but I did read about it signing in automatically a few days ago somewhere.

[Q] Gmail Issue. SOLVED.

I originally posted this on the "bugs and fixes" thread but didn't get a reply. I'm going to return the phone today if I'm the only one with this issue. Can someone please let me know if they are or aren't having the issue below. Thanks.
When I open an email in Gmail to read I then swipe that email right and left to view newer and older emails.
My issue is that some emails are already loaded and ready for viewing (as they should be) BUT some won't load at all no matter how long I wait. The "loading pop up" just hangs there with the spinning wheel but never loads.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?.. I'm stock, not rooted and haven't done any MODS.

Just left tmoblie store and was told that the issue I described above is a known software issue so I guess we all have it.
Thanks for all the replies I mean views.

Yes, everyone has this.

[Q] Help needed with Smasher x rom...

I am not new to flashing, or to this forum. I just forgot my login stuff and had to start a new account. Anyway, on to the problem. I have been running the awesome Smasher x rom for a few days, and planned on it being my daily. I noticed that I cannot received any mms while on wifi. I searched, but no luck. This is a big deal for me, as I am on wifi most of the day. Has anyone else experienced thks issue? Is there a fix? I would ask in his thread, but my post count is too low. I tried multiple flashes and downloads. I wiped internal memory too. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
