I've been using gvoice thru Sprint primarily since they teamed up and lately I've been having an issue. I'm not receiving all my texts from my partner for sometimes days after he sent them. Texts are basically received when he sends them or not received by gvoice for hours or days later. I've only recently noticed this with his texts and I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem.

Ive been useing it since the start as well. have not had this issue or any other issues. How ever before gvoice thing i would never receive any text messages from one of my friends ever (6+ months), but was fixed when i switched to gvoice.. So maybe something similar but i dont know what it is.
sidenote: he is on t-mobile . but i dunno if that matters cause my entire famliy is on t-mobile as well and i got all there messages.
Hopefully u find your answer its annoying
Yeah I've enjoyed the sprint+gvoice experience until now. It's really odd. For now I've switched to talking to my partner via gtalk. I've filed a report with the gvoice help site. I'm debating calling Sprint but I'm unaware if it's a Sprint related issue or a gvoice issue BC it's not like gvoice isn't notifying me of the incoming texts, it's just not receiving random texts from my partner for days.

its worth a shot but i bet they have rather limited google voice knowledge. Maybe for last resort go into settings of ur google voice and revert back to sprint and see if it comes through. Ive never done this so i dont know if you can revert right back to google voice or not , I dont see why not though.
I had to spend 1/2 hour on phone with tech support due to Google voice "taking over my phone". It wouldn't allow me to call without it or disable it. I don't think my situation is relevant but perhaps Sprint can help on their end.

I hate gvoice... It completely screwed call and text receipt on my wife's EVO. The only way to get rid of it is to go to the Google voice website and remove your phone from the account. Once we did that all was well.
Just posting in case anyone has or had the same GVoice issues that I have.
I disabled GV via desktop GV settings and reverted back to my original GV #. I then re-enabled the Sprint+GV integration and so far I have received all of the texts that have been sent to me just like I should. *EDIT* Problem still exists. I'm ****ed.
Text with Scramble showing up and now one even sprint has any idea what it is and only answer is to hard reset....any ideas what it is or how to fix?
+1000!
I thought I might be the only one. It's good to know someone else is getting this weirdness!
I have 23 of them over the last 7 days. They come in every few hours.
They are "random" except that the first chunk is the something that is being sequentially numbered... basically up through, on mine, a "C:".
Not a biggy but annoying.
Anyone else?
Oh yea me also.I have tried to freeze apps and people say it may be goggle voice and yes my number is listed in goggle voice but i do not have this on my phone.
It seems to come now after calls are over or a call and nobody answered.People say it has to do with goggle voice but i do not have it on my phone.Wish i could end this and yes sprint know nothing and it is a pain in the butt.It happens on the Photon also so not epic touch alone.
I get these when I reboot.
I was getting them too! After I blacklisted the number, it stopped.
I'm confused what is happening. Your getting random txt with crazy number and letters?

You have a third party sms app overriding default settings. Most people have gosms or handcent. If certain default settings are in place and you overide those settings the short code will appear. Disable override in handcent or gosms and issue should be resolved.

Sorry to tell you but that's not it. I get them every now and then and I have no custom SMS app installed. Never have on this phone. Must be something else - thankfully RCB Pro blocks it.
I always figured it was from youmail
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Not it either. I don't use youmail. Guess I'll resort to the logs to see where it's coming from or what program is requesting it.
Actually I fixed it on my phone (you'll see above that I had it and was quite annoyed).
Trying to remember exactly my way of getting rid of it but part of it was uninstalling GoSMS doing something or other and then reinstalling GoSMS and everything has been fine. No more 8737 + garbage!
Google 8737 and look around if this didn't help (and it may very well have not).
Sorry I don't remember well.
It seems like whenever I flash a sense rom and start texting, the outgoing messages are okay but the recieved messages are always an 2-3 hours behind. Is this just me or is there a fix for this?
I feel like its a sprint tower issue. I'm constantly roaming at my house so I always get delayed messages or texts showing a different time
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
umm can you be more specific on what version of sense?
i have had issue with 3.5 not sending or recieving texts but no issues like the ones you describe with other versions
i believe this could help you out too but maybe not lol https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.sineo.android.GhostSMS&hl=en

I have this issue EVERYTIME I receive a text while roaming. Never fails.
I have this problem with all Sense ROMs I have flashed, and I am a flashaholic. To get around this, I have just installed Go SMS Pro, which is better than the stock messaging app anyway. Any third-party SMS app should have the option to fix this as well.
I've had this problem on a couple occasions from what it sounds like... It does not sound like an app problem it sounds more like a service problem... When I called sprint to inform them of the issue they sent "refreshes" to my phone and it cleared up the problem almost instantly

Checkyour settings and make sure to enable data while roaming. I think most roms have it disabled by default.
it's some sort of tower issue. It happens to me occassionally when I travel around. Cricket is my provider but it uses Sprint towers I beleive.
I use a tiny free app from the market called SMS Time Fix when I see it happen.
Okay so I disabled iMessage on my iPhone before my M8 was even active, its been over a week now and I have turned off iMessage on literally all of my apple products and for some reason I still can't receive some texts from certain iPhone users. One day it'll work fine and then the next day I don't receive them. This is also happening with some group messages too. My brother who is an iPhone user could group text with my friends and I fine the other day, and all of a sudden today I can't receive any of his messages anymore. I've already spoke with Apple and had them manually deregister my phone # from iMessage and apparently that doesn't seem to be working fully either. Does anyone else have this same problem or something similar and if so how did you go about fixing it? Incredibly annoying. Never had this issue on my AT&T branded M7 with or without the AT&T stock ROM.
This is completely unrelated to your phone. This is all apples issue with imessage. The phone number doesn't deregister properly from Apple. Therefore some people iPhones still think you have one yourself. Don't blame your m8 blame crapple!

I had the same problem with imessage after switching to Android. The issue was resolved through Apple after many days of problems. It is a known issue with Apple servers.

Same problem here. I called Apple and they said my number is not registered anymore and yet I still don't receive any texts from anyone with an iPhone. For sure on Apple's end.

My buddy had the exact same problem today.
He said he turned off iMessage in his phone before he deactivated his iPhone.
He also sent a text to 48369 with the word STOP (An alleged fix from Apple) and that didn't work either.
He called the 1-800 MY APPLE number and had them remove his phone number from the iMessage system and it started to work 30 minutes later.
My wife and I have been having issues with group texting since we got these phones. What usually happens is she'll receive a MMS and it won't download. I'm coming from a Nexus 6 and she from an HTC One M8, but for some reason it's much worse on her phone than it is on mine. We activated the SIM card that came with the phone. We've tried all the obvious things: resetting APNs, clearing data on the messaging app, using a different app, trying with VoLTE on and off (which I heard worked with the Z3). There's been an open ticket with T-Mobile for two weeks which hasn't really gone anywhere. It seems to happen no matter who the group text originates from. We have both iPhones and Androids in the chat.

Same issue. Looks like the most common factors here are G4 and iPhones.
No problems here with MMS:

The issue is only with group texting.
TWN H815 here. Group texting is not supported on the stock messaging app, so I'm using Google Messenger. It has happened to me a couple of times, after upgrading to v10b. The only way I got the messages to download was to turn off WiFi.
I'm glad you decided to REACH out and ask. At least you don't feel like an OUTSIDER. Maybe its an ANOMALY. I'm not sure but when you figure it out i hope you just tell those who don't want you to fix it, "I'm a just do it!"
If you don't understand what I'm talking about let me know. I'll have my boy Andy Mineo give you a call. He's the kind of guy that always says "you can't stop me!"

Did you get anywhere with this? I've tried stock messenger, hangouts, and now textra. At least in hangouts/stock I'd get the message to download; in textra the message just doesn't come through. It seems to originate from:
1) Group MMS
2) First message in a new group
3) Message was sent from an iPhone
4) Pictures especially, but text seems to do it as well
If these conditions occur, I never get the message. Frustrated that it happens but not sure what to do. H811 on TMobile.

Nope, never got anywhere. Tmobile replaced my phone and my wife's phone and they do the same thing. Super annoying.... May end up switching phones cuz the quirks are adding up.

And we never get the message to download. If it prompts us to download the message it never comes in.

Does it only fail while the phone is on WiFi? If so change the option in the texting app to switch on data for mms. Textra and Handcent have this I believe.
I have the same issue, some mms, both picture and group text will either not download or just never show up.

Related I guess, but group messaging doesn't appear to work properly on the stock messaging app
Nope group messaging on my tm g4 is so bad. I've tried almost everything and it still won't download pics
I have this issue occasionally with Hangouts. I will get an mms that did not download from a contact (that should be part of an on-going group message) but it will not download. WiFi or LTE does not seem to matter. When on WiFi, the LTE symbol pops up in the notification bar for a second or so. For me, this only occurs to one out of 30-40 group messages. A minor annoyance, but annoying all the same.
I have not had this problem on any other device when using Hangouts. I had an immediate distaste for the stock message app, so i cannot corroborate that the issue occurs there.

It's happening regardless of SMS client. I've tried stock, Hangouts, Textra, etc and the issue persists across all of them. Mine happens much more frequently too unfortunately, same for my girlfriend.
This is getting insane
I gave up and switched phones unfortunately. Was part of a long thread and me and my wife got every last message. Amazing seeing it work correctly!

Did Tmo take the phones back, or did you sell them privately?
