Good morning everyone and Happy New Year!
Does anyone have issue with Text Message being slow? I'm using the stock Message App come with AT&T. It always take about at least 3 or 4 second to complete the sending (i.e. the spinning circle on every text). No matter how short or long the text is. Especially, group text is very slow. I think it's not the Network issue because I had Note 3 before and never have the issue.
Might do you some good to reprogram your phone. I do not know the number you dial for reprogramming though... Call AT&T or visit a local store.
I don't have issues with slow text messages myself. I have issues with my phone just randomly not getting them until I reboot. Any text messages sent between the time it stopped getting them and I reboot are lost. Not sure what causes it to happen. Happened a few times within a month then went months without happening and then just recently happened again...

Is there a program that let you send the same text Automatically Daily to a person without you actually having to type it.
i had searched for software like that but to no avail.... but my phone does that automatically, and the only way i will be able to fix it is to flash [sic]me[sic] phone.... "my phone sends the SAME text message to my girlfriend all the time... after some troubleshooting, figured out it only does this when I open Text or E-mail (tmail.exe) - the signal quickly changes from Ev to 1x almost instantly after opening tmail.exe... currently I just leave it running in the BG, (not much time to flash) there have been days where she will get the same "Ill call you in a bit" message 8 or more times... There is also an issue where I will soft reset the phone and sometimes it will send a random text to someone I had texted earlier that day or even the day before." it is a wierd issue... ba-a-ad software issue. wonder how many people have experienced that

you could just hard reset your phone...
or take it to your carrier and tell them what is happening

There are these two guys that specialize in text message software. They have software called Auto Text Sender that can be found at www.autotextsender.com

I've had the same problem, with people getting random texts from me. I don't have T-Mobile though..
Hey guys,
Picked up a desire yesterday and its great, though I'm having some issues with sms. I notice I don't receive any texts until I send a text first, then I'll receive 2 or 3 texts, timestamped in the past, up to an hour ago!
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.
edit: unrooted on o2
i get a similar problem, i know i should have received a text message but it doeant show up for hours.
unrooted on tmobile uk
Most likely when your phone is connected over GPRS the text don't come through till you disconnect, used to happen on my N95.
So if my phone is operating in GPRS mode, until it decides it doesn't need the internet anymore and disconnects, it won't retrieve texts... right. So any workarounds or fixes for this?
Prety much, after I use GPRS I just made a call and during or after the call my text came in.
Been getting this all day, are people really just dealing with this or is it only a few people that have this issue?
I am having another problem... on T-mobile, my phone won't download MMS messages. It will just say Download error, General Network Failure... After it expired (3days) , I was sent a link to the T-mobile website, where I am able to see it for 14 days.
Another problem that I am having, the phone is struggling sending long text messages... 4 or 5 normal lenght messages 500-600 characters... I am using the Text App provided with the phone.
I have a problem that I dont think is an actual problem I think its just how the phone works, and tbh its a bit rubbish.
If you dont have signal when you hit send (im my office at work I only get signal on a little square of the desk) the phone says "message not sent". Sometime when it gets signal it will send the message, but if it doesnt get signal quick enough it seems to just give up sending.... a bit lame really....
I'm going to post a message up with the T-mobile UK MMS settings so people in future can find it on search. Have a look in 5 mins.
JAmes.
I've got the same issue with my HTC Desire.
My operator is a Belgium one, namely Mobistar.
I've got the impression that when i open the sms box, i start seeing the messages. Don't know if it's the communication that goes wrong, or the 'throughput' in the phone (screen, alerting...).
After installing (and using of course) chompSMS, this problem is gone... yipppie...
Backstory: last 3 weeks, I've noticed that some text messages I've been sending haven't been going through (without the "resend" notification), and haven't been receiving some of them as well. About 3-5 texts a week that I don't get and about the same amount that people don't get from me so not a big deal, just annoying.
Just got off the phone with Tech Support at T-MO. Went up to the 3rd level, via flow chart the tech support person determined that some app or software I'm running is causing a corruption that's messing up my mms/sms.
I've been running ILWT for quite sometime as my stable rom, but have switched between virtuous quattro ICS, HTCClay's Rom, CM7 RC's over that period of time. Each time doing a superwipe as well as the clockworkmod wipe. The problem hasn't gone away or changed with the different roms, and it's getting frustrating.
Automatically, T-mo attributes this to rooting my device, and I could care less if they replace my phone.
Has anyone had this problem before? If so, did/how did you solve it?
Temporary fix for anyone having this problem. In handcent, turn on both delivery reports and handcent delivery reports. When your text sends successfully, a green dot with a check mark in it appears next to it, if it doesn't a yellow dot appears. At least you'll know when your messages aren't really going through.
Might be a long shot.. but have you tried to take a log cat during the time that it happens? start log cat, send it a text, and send a text, may be tedious though since you'll have to repeat till you get that rare chance that it happens... What are you doing when you don't receive the text? Have you tried Ghostly SMS?
I have this same issue. It usually happens to me when I am in an area with low signal. I have learned to live with it.
T-Mobile customer service has become fairly unhelpful lately. It usually takes me a few calls to get what I need (last time they did not have my phone registered on the network for data access, though it is in my plan, and it took me 4 calls to get that straightened out.) I would not expect much from them.
Have you noticed the messages do not send when you are in a specific area or signal strength?
Naturally, now that I spent 2 days trying to logcat it, I haven't had the failure. Called t-mo yesterday and got my upgrade pushed up a month because of all my problems. Getting a Galaxy S2 on tuesday.

I have also noticed that if my battery is low and I am in a fringe area this happens to me, the message will show draft and when I charge and am in a better area it sends with no problem.

It may be memory related. As mentioned, Ghostly SMS is helpfull to fix this for recieving message. But for sending message I don't have any idea.. just to enable confirmation messages
My phone is driving me insane. I will receive up to ten copies of the same text message from random people I'm having SMS conversations with. Over. and over. and over. It is carrier and phone independent on their end; it never happened to me before I got the Galaxy Nexus.
The only way to solve the issue (and stop the texts, as they also seem to be coming in as additional text messages that have somehow been "converted" to the content of the "bug" message) is to restart the phone.
^^^ To clarify, I just got one text message five times. When I restarted my phone, five -different- text messages from the same person came in one burst.
What gives? Happened to me out of the box and with the 4.1.1 OTA I've installed.
AT&T. 4.1.1 yakju.
Further clarification:
NO additional SMS apps EVER installed.
Google Voice is NOT sharing an inbox with Mms.apk.
One friend has a new One X on at&t - I thought the issue was with his phone
Until it happened with a friend who has a 3GS on T-Mobile ; I've never received duplicate texts from them before, the issue is on my end
The m-m-monster kill does not seem to arrest any of my outgoing texts
It *does* however intercept all incoming text messages, and turn them into the m-m-monster kill text.
Due to this issue, I think I can never use the "Vega" notification again.
Quick Google results show VZW users experiencing the same issue with stock LTE Nexii. This is ridiculous.
Bump?
Same issue for me. I'm on 4.1.1 too and have experienced this randomly with multiple ROMs and kernels. Any fix?
Toro on cm10. Has never happened to me before.

I have a weird problem with my phone. Sometimes my text messages will be received only if I send out a text of my own or make a call.
Emphasis on the sometimes because its so random I haven't seen a pattern. When I first got the phone I had it with Wind mobile. The terrible reception made me switch to Bell about 2 months ago. This issue has significantly dropped since then but just in the past hour it's happened twice.
A friend sent me a text at 8:25 PM. I called him at 8:33 and then his 3 texts came through. We were having the convo up until 8:39 when it seemed as though he stopped replying. At 9:37 I sent one out to a different person and his text messages finally came through (Time stamp sent was 8:40 time stamp received was 9:37). Its not even an issue of reception because the texts and calls that trigger the "missing" texts send flawlessly.
Maybe it's the text messaging app I use? I use Textra but haven't tried with the stock in a while.
It's such an annoying problem. Any help would be appreciated.
