Doesn't seem to matter the rom, I get text messages 2-3-4 plus times. Sometimes randomly. Ported my number from Verizon nearly a month ago.
Any thoughts? Is extremely frustrating trying to hold text convos.
Currently on wicked V4.

I had this happen to me as well, it's stopped now but I believed it to be rom/ kernel related if neither it's the sender as it's only happened from one person in particular that was running cm on a s2.. I'd do a clean install from wiping everything and going from there

I've had this issue with every touchwiz rom. It's random and sparratic but it could be a T-Mobile issue too I guess
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
I should have included that. It happens on touch wiz roms. Haven't tried cm.
Also happens from everyone. Regardless of verizon, att, sprint, tmobile.
So annoying lol. I have reinstalled and tried a few different roms.
Have not tried stock. Phone was rooted and modded the moment I got home from the store.

This sane thing was asked a while back. Has something to do with the port from previous carrier. Mainly from a CDMA carrier (Verizon/sprint). However, it is hit and miss, as I ported from sprint and have had zero issues. Even from all my friends on other networks. And my phone has been on almost every ROM made so far, with a multitude of mix and match kernels.

I didn't see that post. Can you link me or tell me what the fix was?
Is very frustrating. It doesn't happen at first, soon as it does it ramps up until I am getting the same text 10+ times randomly throughout the day.
Which when sending 100 texts on purpose back and forth becomes a nightmare quick.

It may take me awhile to find it. It wasn't posted like yours. It was a question asked inside a thread totally unrelated, and someone from t mobile chinned in and said they have issues when numbers port sometimes. That it is just a waiting game until resolved.

Crap. Never mind. It was not receiving from other carriers.

I was way off. Are you using go SMS or any other 3 red party messaging app? I have seen it happen with go quite frequently. Of not, we may have to look at APN settings to see if you are using multiple, or maybe your number isn't accepting the message with an acknowledgement right away.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
Ahhh gotcha. Don't have that problem.
I did at first. Thought like you did it was at fault. Had to fresh install last night, be the 2nd fresh install without installing go SMS.
Does it with the stock app.
I probably should call Tmo

I am sending to att iPhone and they have been getting delayed texts. Never had issue with HTC sensation so I am assuming this is a galaxy s ii issue.

"Why do you keep f****** keep censoring my *** d*** texts you piece of s*** keyboard!!"
That was the end of my childish exploits, but hey, he wanted to see the feature
if you got your sim card upgrade they there might be some delay for awhile. should be fine after 30min-1hr.

any updates? Co-worker just got a GS2 and is having a delay on incoming texts, not so much with outgoing. We're both on tmo, i sent him 3 texts about 15 minutes apart took him around 3 hours for the first one and never got the other 2 before we left work, if he sends me one comes through immediately.
that's a service provider network problem, not a PHONE problem
if i sent to people on the same network, they receive it instantly
if i sent to people on a different network, they get it in a second or two

For me the problem resolved itself, but I ended up getting a new SIM card from T-Mobile anyway, just to be on the safe side. It doesn't happen to me anymore.
i work in the sprint store and in the past few days we have gotten at least 4 people with an epic touch still running gingerbread (with no option to update to ics) having issues with the bottom buttons not responding, touch screen acting weird, vibration activating sporadically, and with one case the media scanner runs in a loop. the only way to solve these issues have been to factory reset. but could only be temporary. the customers havnt returned. these issues have not just been happening on older devices but recent activation's.
is this a common issue? is there a fix? (without rooting!) we are a sprint store. we cant promote that lol

I thought the same thing but its been mostly from well established customers. It may have just been a coincidence but I'll see how this week turns out. The factory resets seem to have fixed the issues. Just could have been gingerbread getting confused after being used for awhile lol. Which brings me to another question.. is there any way to push the ics update to an epic touch that's still on gingerbread without Odin. Keep in mind this is a sprint store and we are very limited on our resources

Call your carrier, have them reset your line, describe them the situation and tell them you need everything reset on their end.

I have started seeing the same thing on my phone. I haven't had time to dig into it but I just flashed FreeGS3 last night and it started today. When I was full stock/rooted I never noticed a problem. It doesn't happen every time either. Are you on a custom rom? May not have anything to do with it, just a starting point for me.

Yes I am on a stock rom I haven't changed anything besides rooting the phone. My problem just started yesterday and hoping it get resolves really soon.
Has it been happening with every text you send, or is it kinda random? Mine seems to be random so far. Hopefully its a network issue on TMobiles side.
In case you don't know, in Messaging apps settings you can set it to request a delivery report for SMS and/or MMS. That way you can at least be sure if/when your texts go through. It will notify you when it is delivered.

I'm having other issues as well. Not just that but my text will set themselves as read just from reading one or unlocking my screen. Also when I open a thread it will freak out and start scrolling up uncontrollably. And lags bad if I have a lot of different text. I keep having to delete to keep it stable. very frustrating
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 2
The sending multiple texts thing is a known issue on the Sprint network right now, so nothing to worry about for that, but if it is truly scrolling up without you touching it, then it is probably a bad touch screen. I have seen it twice before with this phone.

Multiple text messages are are caused by the network. Usually in poor coverage areas is where I notice it the most. One day I got the same message from a friend 27 times in an area with crappy service.

If it's really really bad, call customer service and complain and ask for an Airave. It's basically a mini-cell tower that works over your internet connection (assuming you have one). If they won't budge, ask for the termination people. complain there. Make sure you get the device for free, the line for free, and the activation for free. It is a SIGNIFICANT improvement over bad service. Without it, my calls would drop about 75% of the time; the other 25% of my calls would be unintelligible.
This is my first post so be easy with me please. I have been running CM11 snapshots on my T-Mobile galaxy sIII for a long while and so far so good. However as of last three months or so I have had some serious issues with sms. I'm not sure if it is a carrier/network issue or perhaps a cm issues maybe it's not even on my side but when I get text messages from one particular contact, who uses an iPhone, every couple of messages end with the world "null." Usually it's a long message and I only receive the first half and then it ends with "null." I have tried numerous different sms apps like hangouts and sliding cm messaging, but I typically prefer the stock sms app. I'm not sure what to do to fix it and I haven't found anybody else with this issue. It's really frustrating to have to ask this contact to resend messages multiple times just to get the jist of what they're saying. I hope there's a solution. I have flashed new snapshot of CM and I just recently updated the modem. Everything else works perfectly just this sms issue is bugging me.
PS. I've tried a clean install and the problem is still present. I had posted a screen shot over in the cm forums but because I am a noob to Xda I can't post external links yet.
Thanks for any help!*

Do they have alternative sms apps for the iphone? Ask your friend to try a few and see if that helps.
No alternative sms apps that I know of. My friend just uses the stock iPhone sms app.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm pretty sure its an Apple problem, and they refuse to address it because they know many will blame Android and hopefully switch to their iPhone. You should be able to find some articles on it with a google search.
I mean I'm sure that's a possibility. Whatever it is I hope it gets resolved soon. I've tried searching under multiple terms and I've only come across similar incidents like mine with blackberries from few years ago. So I haven't seen anything with an iPhone causing this kind of sms issue. Also thanks for all of your input.

This is what I was referring to, but it seems its not exactly the same as your problem.

Still, ask your friend to turn off iMessage in their Settings and see if that helps.
I remember reading that entry about the iMessage bug. I owned an iPhone about four years ago, it was the 3g. It was before iMessage was created too. I don't think that's the problem but still I wouldn't rule it out. I'll make sure that my friend has iMessage turned off.

If you use it on anything it can cause problems. So if you have a mac or tablet and are using it there, make syre to sign out or disable it there as well.
Thanks for all the help. I lucked out and got an invite for the oneplus one. So I'm using that now and so far no problems at all. If I very get any invites to give away I'll check back with you to see if you want one. Thanks again.

A lot of people have the same issue that I am having with a similar setup. So what it's boiling down to is that it is a t-mobile issue with how they handle sms over 160 characters. I'm not sure if this can be fixed by changing some values in the apn settings but I'm gonna see what I can find out.

I would not believe this, I've been using T-Mobile for many, many years and have never had this problem when sending or receiving long messages. I think its either their carrier or device
Well yeah I've been with Tmo for at least the past ten years. I've never had any bug like this. I'm gonna go ahead and day that's it's not a device problem. I've now experienced the issue with multiple devices. Also in different forum entries people have cited receiving the bug from multiple carriers with various iPhone and android devices. Furthermore it can't be a coincidence that the null bug popped up around the same time for many users. Sorry if I sound rude, I really don't mean to. I really appreciate the input and help.

No offense taken.. Usually when I receive texts from friends using other carriers that are long they are split and I receive them separately but no null at the end.. It still sounds carrier related to me tbh, no way so many phones would just start messing up sending or receiving long messages.. It's either one or the other.. Of course this is just my opinion.. After you have made sure you have correct APN, returned to stock firmware, made sure you are using stock SMS app to confirm same issue, there's really not much left to troubleshoot besides calling T-Mobile to reset your account, or for them to admit they are having issues
Yeah same here, usually when I receive long text messages they're split. I think you're right, it's carrier related. I've chatted with T-Mobile reps twice now and they basically blamed AT&T and took no responsibility. I've always used the stock sms app to avoid any issues and I verified that I apn I'm using is correct. So I guess all I can do is wait and hope it works itself out. Also what do you mean by reset my account?

Actually, if it were your device or T-Mobile, it would be happening with more than just one of your contacts. I still believe the issue is on their end, not yours.
