App issue - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I don't know where to post this but whenever I install a rom on my phone and download the "Chase" app it keeps reading my old telephone number. I changed it on the website and still showing my old number. Like when I'm trying to get an identification number, either to text it to me or call me it still shows up as my old number.
Is there something in the app that I can change?

I was thinking of that but wasn't sure if they could, but I will do that. Thank you.

[Q] Cannot send SMS

MMS, data, voice all work fine. I can receive SMS. SMS was working before. This problem occurred after I flashed a custom ROM and then restored the backup from CWM. My Nexus is on Straight Talk using stock rooted ROM.

Try changing the SMSC (SMS Centre) number.
You need to dial
*#*#4636#*#*
and select the first option.
Telekom (GER) offers a service to setup everything for you.
Had the same issue before.

How do I find/ what is my smsc number?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Getting the real SMSC for android is a bit tricky
1.) Find the SMS centre number of your carrier (e.g. for t-mobile DE -> +49 171 076 0000)
2.) go to http://twit88.com/home/utility/sms-pdu-encode-decode
3.) Enter the SMS centre number in the field "SMSC" and clear receiver and the message "How are you?"
4.) Click on "Convert"
5.) On the right side you'll see something like (in my example)
0791947101670000110000910000AA00
the first two digits show you the length. (7)
6.) 7x2+2 = 16 (+2 cause of the length needed[?]); Mark 16 digits from the start of the number. (here 0791947101670000) Thats your SMSC Number.
Go back to
*#*#4636#*#*
first option, scroll down to "SMSC" and enter your SMSC, click the button directly next to the input field.
Leave this screen and go back to it. Scroll down to the SMSC section and click the right button. (if everything is correct, you should now see the correct SMSC number instead of "00")
If you need further help, feel free to send me a PM.
Thanks a lot. That link is dead but I found a post with the number:
07913121139418F0 which worked for an ATnT customer and now it's working. I'm about to search for another udp encoder so I can use the proper straight talk smsc. Much appreciated!

DUDE!!!! Double thanks for posting this question and SMSC number. I am on Straight Talk and had somehow got my SMSC wiped. Its been a week raising hell with ST when I read something about the no SMS and their SMSC reading as 00. Checked mine and sure enough 00. Thanks again.

NO KIDDING! I was having the same problem, and now it's fixed, thanks to you guys! ST is not very helpful over the phone, however I have found they have much better customer service over facebook.
I tried using the number in this thread and the att number and I still cannot send messages. When I refresh the smsc number after entering the att number, I get the same number with an extra 0 at the end. I know why it was wiped, I just cannot get it back. No matter which number I try, I still get a message not sent error

I hope you got this sorted. But it needs to be said your SMSC number is carrier specific. My carrier is Straight Talk specifically but I am using the At&t MVNO not the T-mobile. Since my service is through At&t's network, I'm using At&t's SMSC number. You will need to find or decipher your carriers SMSC.

I ended up getting it. My code was exactly the same but when I tried it, I did not capitalize the letter and it would not work. As soon as I did, it worked so all is well

[Q] Anyone else get weird phone numbers in texts?

I looked around and found similar-ish issues but not quite the same... I have a VZ GN and normally it works well, I get texts with just "Contact Name (number of texts)" but ever so often I will get a text with "Contact Name (xxx) xxx-xxxx" where the phone number is nothing even close to correct - weird area codes especially. then I'll have two threads from the same contact - one correct but one bizarre.
I've added the phone number to the contact in the past and it doesn't come back, but now I'm really starting to wonder WHY this is happening in the first place.
Thoughts?

Texting through Google Voice (them, not you) will change the displayed and received phone number.

If you're using the stock SMS app (rather than the Google Voice app) to send/receive text messages (using your Google Voice number), you'll see exactly what you're describing. The number you see will basically be a forwarding number used by Google to get your message to the right person.
From what I've seen, the number will be unique to each contact, but won't have anything to do with their actual number. Everything will be correct on their end though, and your messages will be exchanged with the correct recipient.

Right, and I am using the stock SMS app - but I don't think I'm using GV. The only thing I use it for is visual voicemail (forward all calls to GV which then get routed back to my phone) but I have it set so all my calls use my regular number. People don't text me on my GV number... I don't think...
Hmmm...

You can check at http://voice.google.com. If you see the messages there, they were sending them to your GV number.

Ah-ha!
Indeed they were... Not too sure how someone who sends me texts every couple days all of a sudden uses my GV number that's been stored in their phone for months, but at least I know what's going on.
Thanks!

If I ever delete all messages and then when I go to send a message to someone who has multiple numbers saved I have no idea which # to send a message to. That is prob what happened.

Dialing a specific number causes the call to end abruptly

This problem showed up just recently. Nothing has changed, just when I try to dial one specific number from my contacts, it starts the call, does maybe one tone, then ends the call for some reason. I was on mimicry, atm I'm using Andromadus b5 but the problem persists. Any help would be appreciated.

Is there anything special about that number?
Have you tried manually dialing the number to be sure it's not the contact?
Jenny 867 5309?

It's my GF's number, so you can imagine that it's kind of a serious problem. I tried dialing it manually, yeah. I'll try deleting the contact altogether, but I doubt it'll work.

It's a sign. Dump her!
Just a thought- check to see if you have any special chars in the number, like +1 or (555). Google might automatically format the number so you might have to edit the number to see the raw input.

Nope, even if I just dial it straight from the dialler, it still does this thing. Maybe it's something on the provider's end?
I have/had the same problem, but since using ics it seems to be solved...

So right now either I can reflash completely or contact my carrier, I guess.

What does it do when you dial from another phone?
Take your sim card and put it in another phone and dial the number. If problem persists then its your account. If it goes away it might be related to your original phone

Did a complete wipe, the problem persists. Put the SIM in my GF's phone without changing anything else. I could dial the number just fine. Guess I gotta figure out what's wrong with my phone.

[Q] Activation question... Sort of...

So I just switched to a Gallaxy S3, and gave my rooted phone to my girlfriend. Booted into EL30 from SD card and got the phone activated. Everything works great, except when I call her, it comes up as "voicemail" in the caller ID. Same thing happens when she calls me, she will dial my number and instead of saying my name, it says "voicemail" Did I do something wrong with the activation? I deleted all my accounts off the phone, in the settings, "about phone" it has her number.
Any ideas?
I'm on CM9.

You might need to reflash her phone with NO restore.
Might be a really dumb suggestion (but I have my stupid moments...), but she doesn't have a 'Voicemail' contact with your number programmed into it, does she?

Lol. I wish it was that simple. Gonna do a full wipe.

AT&T Voicemail on CM10 broken.

I recently installed CM10 and have not been able to listen to my voicemails. When I get a notification for a voicemail and try to call, it says "No voicemail number is stored on the sim card". Is there a number I can add to get this up and running? Tried using Google voice but it says there was an error forwarding the number. Anyone know how I can fix this?
Not sure how you could fix it permanently, but for a temporary fix just call your cell number on your phone and listen that way.

Thanks, that worked. Is this a known problem with installing an AOSP ROM? I'm coming from Verizon and I never had this problem.
I've actually had the same exact problem as you did. After days of searching, here's the solution:
Dial *#61# from your phone. AT&T will send you your voice mail number. Copy that down.
From the Dialer, hit Menu and go to Settings>Voicemail>Setup>Voicemail number. Punch in that number, and you're good to go.

I had trouble with this too. Go to the google voice webpage and verify your google number, youll get the same error if you try the mmi code given when you click 'activate'...so just get your google number and then on your phone settings under call forwarding change the forward number(s) to your google number, and keep the +1 in front. you may need to change your google number if this doesnt work, mine worked fine once i did that, but you might not have to. hope this helps.
Ya, right out of the box, setting up google voice didnt work properly. Had to manually set my forwarding numbers as my google voice. I had to do it manually, OH THE HUMANITY. Lol

I wish I knew that earlier. I called at&t tech support and they provided me with the correct voicemail number immediately.
