Issues with sending long messages - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I'm currently on the cookies and cream rom and am having issues sending long messages. Is there a fix to this? It's probably the only annoying thing I'm facing right now. Thanks

You could try using a different messaging app. I personally like using the Go SMS Pro app.

[Q] Best Working SMS App for the G2/Desire Z

Originally (almost 2 years ago) I started out using ChompSMS. I then switched to Handcent, then to GoSMS, and now I'm considering switching back to Chomp. I feel like GoSMS and Handcent are both catering to newer phones that can handle a lot of bloatware. I'm just curious what everyone else with a G2 is using to send text messages these days. What's working the best for you?

Thanks, I'll give stock a try again but will use a popup app for messages. That was one of the features that drew me to the other apps.
I hated pop up messages. That's why I stayed stock.
If I recall, CM10 now has option for pop up messages, including the quick reply.

[Q] Messaging lag?

It seems whenever I try to send 3 messages in a row in the stock messaging app it freezes and lags a bunch. I also can't receive more than 3 messages at once either...anyone else experiencing lag issues? This also happens in every other app but messaging is the worst

How many messages do you have stored? If you're having problems in every app then it sounds like either something's corrupted in the system, or you have an app causing problems eating up memory or other resources.
Unless you have good reason to believe that the problems with sms are unrelated from your other issues, you should give more info on more apps, on what else happens, when it happens, what triggers it, what you've tried to do to fix so far, etc.
Also helps to know if your rooted, what rom/build your using, kernel, etc.

What do you mean 3 messages... type shorter texts? I have 15k stored and seems to be fine for me... I'm not sending texts like I'm seizuring tho.

I mean like typing and sending and typing and sending three different texts somewhat fast. Sorry if that doesnt make sense but the messaging app is just super laggy all the time and it's probably the 10,000 messages I have stored

Back em up and wipe em out is the first thing id try. You can always restore if need be.

I was using go SMS pro but I just uninstalled it since it won't let me send MMS without uploading to the cloud... the stock app will barely even open. FML.

Well I've had the phone since the end of August so it's over 2 months worth. Actual number is 14,567.
I don't think I send that many in a year!

Messaging app lag

Is anyone else noticing a lot of lag in the messaging app? When I am texting more than one person my phone will lag a lot when it is sending and receiving messages. In tried using a few different messaging apps and none of them lagged as much as the stock app. I am still running the stock unrooted Rom v9.

Messaging app on stock problems

Does anyone else have issues writing text that are longer than one sms long? If so, is there a fix. This app has had the same issues on each update.
Another problem is when I go to compose a new text and I am typing the person's name in the contacts box it won't show the phone number I am trying to send a message to. It happens when I text my wife. I will type her name and it will show every other phone number she has but her cell phone. Can't seem to figure it out. I went into the contacts app and set her cell as the preferred number and that didn't fix it. I don't think that issue can easily be recreated.
So those are the two issues. Also, are those issues on the custom roms? I would imagine they are at no fault to the devs.

I am a noob but wanted to try and duplicate your issues on my phone.
I am flashed stock ZVB. I use GOSMS but tested the stock messaging app for your questions. I sent 2 text messages that were over the character limit. One sent correctly (1 of 2 and 2 of 2) the other only sent the second half of the second message (2/2).
I did not notice any issues with contact names.
Hope this helps.

New Hangouts apk

Thanks to user Luke Olsen for posting this https://plus.google.com/app/basic/stream/z13zsdhwxmeoj3ubg04cixyh5tesidmz3ek it has sms integration that is confirmed working

Well, ergonomics seem as ****ty as always. Can't understand how I choose between SMS and hangout channels. Typing a name brings out hundreds of "google+ suggestions" I have never heard of, instead of bringing out my local google contacts.
What the hell ?
Is anyone else having issues with video calling after installing the new apk?

and paste it into

you have to have root and a file manager (i used FX File Manager)
this will FIX the force close when trying to do a video chat

anyone have this working ok in conjunction with the new kitkat launcher/google now? I am getting a lot of hangout FC's. I used the v2 package from this same forum.
Edit: Never mind. Uninstalled the new version and reinstalled and now it's playing nicely.
As far as sms is concerned hangouts works perfectly.

Can anyone receive any MMS?
Yep! I can without any issue.
I just tried with my work phone and haven't received any MMS... Not even in the stock messaging app did I get the MMS
I have no problem sending MMS
I am getting hangout force closes... Randomly

I get FC's with the new hangouts app too but it is only happening with the Google play services update required for the kk launcher

Managed to get a fc when I sent myself a picture. Anyone else?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Yup fc here
No MMS and random force closes... I have uninstalled and gone back to Hangouts V1....
Really wished it was fully working.. Was liking the SMS integration

Why hasn't Google implemented quick reply to Hangouts yet? That was something I'd hoped would have come with this latest version. The interactive and expandable notifications are cool to see a full message content, but it sucks having to constantly enter in the new Hangouts app vs. just hitting quick reply or read with the CM 10.2 stock messaging app. I guess I was just spoiled.
On the plus side, I was able to receive an MMS last night, but when sending one, I get an fc. Oh well. Most people who I want to send pictures too have Hangouts and I just share a picture with them instead of MMS for the time being till that is fixed, or the official update is released on the Play Store.
