:?
My XDA appears to be sending two copies of a text message when I send it.
I'm running Radio 4.21.00 CE 4.01.00 on an O2 device, i've been through all the menus I can think of but can't see anything...
Could it be something to do with having / not having +44 infront of the phone number i'm sending to.??
Cheers

I had this happen to me just around Christmas time (about 3 days after I had the phone), anyone I sent messages to received 2, 3 or even 4 messages.
I contacted my provider and they said this can happen when the network is very busy (I thought it would be dropping them), but low and behold after the XMas period was over it all come back to normal.
I don't think I was actually sending 2 messages as I would only get one "Message Sent" notification come up, and only one delivery cofirmation received back.
If this is your experience then it is the network, if the problem is otherwise, sorry I can't be of anymore help
ive also had this running v4,21 radio and v4,01.00 tmobile s/w had it on v4.00.05 too i could send to most of my mates it would go blub messege sent only 1 credit taking.......
then for some reason only one my my mates numbers it takes about 3 x credit says balance is blar blar then again and again then all of a sudden messege sent. they are on o2 and so am i but she doesnt seem to receive them :\ this is only say like 5-10 caharacters long in the message so way under 1 text but i dont understand what the hell its upto yet all my other mates ones work fine :\ :?:
yes...same problem
Im using 4.00.005 with radio (listed below) and got same problem, when i send sms message to someone it recieves 2 or even 3 copies... i dont think network is so busy to send them twice or 3 .... maybe some fix ? or WM2003 error? HELP!
Monika u got this problem too?
Anyone managed to find a fix for this, or figure out why it could be happening ??
I hard reset last night to try and resolve the problem, but everyone is still getting two copies of any text messages i send them :roll:

Ok, I may have found a work around for this..
It seems to send two copies when I tap "send" then tap the "X" before I have got the "message sent" popup.
If I wait until that pop's up then click the "X" it only seems to send one copy..
Are you guys that were having problems using any software that makes "X" actually close rather than minimize ??
(I'm using PocketPlus)
Cheers

i use pocke tplus too but i dont close it or nothing.... i just hit send it got blip chows credit blip shows credit again blip shows credit then message box saying message sent but it cost me like 30p for one bluddy text :\

Ok
so I've unlocked my XDA and use a 3 sim. I can make calls just fine, I can receive text messages just fine but I cannot send texts messages.
Also, I cant access my sim contacts either. I can get around this by copying my contacts to the PC and then to the XDA but I use multiple PC's and am always forgetting not to synchronise contacts on any PC's other than the one with the correct data so I keep losing it.
Anyone got any ideas how I can resolve this.
I have an update for you all.......
I've spoken with 3 and they have assurd me (for what it is worth) that they have not imposed any restrictions on sending SMS (I wondered because I know alot of people take the 3 contract for the cheap calls and then don't use any 3 services but use the O2 roam facility that presumably costs 3 money) so I have to assume I have a set up or technical problem with the XDA.
When I try to use SIM Manager I get an error message saying "Sim is busy. Wait 5 seconds and try again.". Well I wait and wait but it doesn't get any better than that.
SIM Toolkit does nothing when I try to use it, not even the graciousness to give me an error message.
3 said just type in the servcie centre number and away you go (they also said to uncheck the "use unicode when necessary" box) but that doesn't seem to help. Also after I type the service centre number in and try to send an SMS, which fails everytime, I go back to where you enter the service centre number and the field is blank again.
The error message I get when I try to send an SMS is "Your SMS message has not been sent because the SIM is invalid. Contact your customer service center for a new SIM" Well, of course my 3 sim is valid,it works just fine in the e616.
The SMS messages appear in the "Sent" directory even though they haven't been sent (and they really haven't or at least they certainly haven't been received)
ROM Version is 3.17.03 Eng (in fact it's the XDA developer ROM)
ROM Date 05/15/03
Radio Version 4.16.00 (I down graded to this to get the thing unlocked)
Protocol Version 32S54
right,
my wifes starting to lose her temper with her hero.
she send over 150 text messages a day, but receiving them seems to be a very hit and miss affair.
she gets texts ok for a while, then gets nothing for 10-20 mins (from what i can tell) then all the ones she has missed arrive all at once.
orange UK have basically told her to naff off and talk to HTC.
so, can anyone tell me whats causing the problems, is it an orange problem, or a phone problem.
if its the phone, whats causing the problem
doing a bit of a search, one explanation seems to be that the phone is running out of memory and it shuts down the text app and relaunches it later on, if so, how can i prevent/stop this happening.
she is on the current rom from HTC which she installed about 10 days ago to try and prevent this.
thanks in advance for any advice / help you can give
from what i have read on the forum it might be a problem with the stock messaging app.
try installing handcent sms or chomp sms from the market and see how that goes.
don't forget to turn off the notifications from the stock sms app or you will get multiple notifications for the same message.
also if your wife is using task killer applications she should put the messaging app on the ignore list!
Me too!
I am having this very same problem, although on a slightly smaller scale (150 texts/day?!). I also get the problem where callers are going straight to my voicemail when the phone is right beside me, receiving full signal, which, to my mind, would seem to be related.
I spoke to Orange who fobbed me off with "oh, there's a mast down in your area, switch to use 2G only", despite my protestations that the problem occurred when I was in different parts of the country...
Interestingly, it happened with my Touch Diamond as well when I first got that, about 18 months ago; I was never sure that it was completely cured, but it sure as hell wasn't as bad as it is now on my 2 month old Hero with stock Orange ROM.
My twopenneth, for what it's worth.
P.
Try a new updated Radio rom maybe? One way to tell if its a network issue is to make calls to 150 for about 10 seconds and see if the stuck messages come through, if so its a network issue. I wouldn't let orange customer service fob you off they don't have the reporting tools to actually look into the issue's.
Can someone please help me with my long going problem?
Intermittently, when replying to a text message (either in stock messaging or handcent, etc) the phone does not send the text message, and refuses to send for up to a minute after retrying, then the message will eventually send.
This has been happening for MONTHS, and I have had my HTC hero replaced through orange several times regarding the issue, as they had identified it as a handset fault. I then got a replacement SIM from orange aswell to try and rectify the issue, but shortly after registering my new SIM, the issue still occurs.
It seems someone in this thread has the same problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=665932
I tried the "fix", ie. making sure all numbers were in international number format (+44...) but this made no difference.
As I said, this issue is intermittent and RANDOM, but happens around 3 times a day. It is very frustrating especially when trying to reply to a text urgently.
Is anyone else having the same issue?
Before anyone asks, yes my message centre number is correct (+447973100973).
It only seems to be when replying to a text message, well that is when i notice it anyway.
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks
I started to get this when I rooted to VR12, it did it alot the first couple of days then didn't do it much. I've now unrooted to orange 2.1, its done it twice in a week. It didn't do it at all on 1.5, maybe a coincidence. Location doesn't matter either.
I noticed this issue. I updated to 2.1 and found im having the same problem. Its intermittent so i cant tell what is forcing it to "retry". Only noticed this since going from 1.5 ---> 2.1.
I installed Darkstone's Froyo Sense v1 and just today gave me the error. Friend of mine actually mentioned it earlier today. We tested it a few times. When I sent him an mms, I got the error, but he still got it. The little envelope icon remained on my message. Tried it again with another friend and same thing, but after 2min the message was sent.
I had the same problem.
I fixed it by entering the service number in the service-menu of the radio. DIAL *#*#4636#*#* and you will see the menu comming up. Take the upper option. Scroll down and update your servicenumber there. While you are there check if the prefferd network is " gsm auto prl" instead of "wcdma". It can save some power.
Goodluck.

Hi mcall_r
just wondering if any of these suggestions fixed your problem as I'm having the same issue. mach2005 where do you get the service number from to enter?
Me too!
Hi,
I've been having this issue too. Along with all the other bugs introduced with 2.1 it's been driving me nuts.
The issue seems to occur intermittently and with a variety of numbers. Normally I get the notification sound, a text icon with an exclamation mark in the notification bar and the text 'unable to send text message'. After a while it normally resolves itself and the message is sent however with one number, my mum's, the problem always persists.
Initially I tried checking the message centre number, ultimately I tried a master reset, without any joy. Then I got a new SIM from Orange, which still hasn't resolved the issue. I can pop the SIM into another phone and send messages to her number so it's definitely the phone.
Just today I noticed that I had an unread text from 'Anon' deep in my message thread, which apparently had come from nowhere (I have observed this before). After deleting the thread I was again able to text my mum, is this just a coincidence? Seriously pissed off with this issue but hoping it is now finally resolved. The messaging in Android/Sense seems fubar, I've also had issues with it resolving to the wrong contact when selecting 'Send message' from another contact. Anyone had these same issues in combination with the 'cannot send text message' error?
when texting a message the call back number that is recieved on the other persons phone is a long string of numbers and is not showing up as my original phone number and when the person replies back they have to text me from my original number and cannot reply back to the number that is showing up
ANYONE else having this problem???????
Same problem here in Orlando, FL!!
its the sim card number that is showing up on the text lol I THINK atleast thats what verizon texh support said
wow that would be a hackers dream number i would suppose
oh damn!
I'll report as soon as I get mine.
Don't think I'm having that problem, but go into your text message settings and try changing your call-back number in there.

So after some testing it seems my issue is only happening with AT&T Wireless phones. My txt msgs are fine to TMO and VZW...odd.
Verizon tech said it has been reported a few times but they said they would get back to me on this issue within the hour lol ill hold my breath
and my service is in middle tennessee

Thats bs because its happening to me to Verizon users, both blackberry verizon users so far.
the number that shows up on the other person phone on my text matches my IMSI number
Ok they told me a temporary fix
Delete cache and cookies from browser take battery out for 10 seconds
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I fixed this (temporarily) by unchecking "Send callback number" under SMS settings.
It was doing it even sending texts to other Verizon users.
I fixed mine just by simply rebooting the phone
Mine was doing this last night.
i think a simple reboot fixes it temp. but a verizon tech told me they are collecting data because they are fixing to push out a patch for it and a few other problems

same here, 1 reboot fixed it
No issues when my son texts me from his TB. Currently on a Fascinate for another hour.
Had issue unchecked the call back number battery pull and all is good..
Reboot solved the problem for me but I don't know if that is a permanent solution. I suspect that some people may have this problem and not even know about it. Unless you call and say, "Hey, I didn't hear back from you after I sent that text," you won't know they thought you had gotten their reply. This has happened to me both at the beginning as well as in the middle of a conversation. I've had the phone for 3 days, and the problem has occurred sporadically each day. I would be interested to hear if anybody has had the issue recur after a reboot or similar fix appeared to solve the problem.
All texts I send appear to arrive at their destination, with only some having the ID number instead of my phone number. It's the replies to those texts that sometimes arrive and sometimes don't.
happen to me the first day I got the phone...called verizon and they fixed the problem in 5 mintues...I powered down my phone and they fixed out on there end.
Has anyone had a problem where it is changing text messages being sent or received ?
I wonder if this isnt an issue with the network themselves and not the device, but for some reason, then ends of messages that I am sending are being replaced with parts of what I imagine are other peoples texts ?
example: I enter a text to a friend that reads "my cat is brown" instead of that getting to my friend the text ended up reading "my cat is loving and likes long walks on the beach" it has happened now with 3 different people I have sent texts to and I don't know what to do.... gotta be a network thing right ? just got the phone Friday everything is stock.
it seems to happen on long rambling messages
