Not receiving all text messages? - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone having issues receiving text messages? Apparently my messages are being received but im not getting replies... even tried sending messages to myself on Google Voice - I never get them... Only a few messages have actually gotten to me in the last day or so.

Did you just port your number over?

A week ago... just started happening.

Still having issues with this.. been on with verizon 2 days now and they cant figure out whats wrong with my phone. Ive factory reset several times, had them clear my account etc... still doesnt work consistently... What could be causing this?

Same here. Was wondering if it could be related to rooting the device, but I receive the occasional text/pic msg so I know that's not it. I do toggle the 3G/LTE settings quite a bit for battery conservation and I'm wondering if that could be affecting the delivery of text messages.
Any ideas?

Double Text Messages

I'm receiving double text messages now on a lot of my text messages I receive. It doesn't seem to matter who the text message is from. It's happened after I upgraded the Radio, DCD ROM, and Bootloader to the latest versions below. I don't know if that's what caused it or if there is something wrong with the Verizon Service and I should call Verizon. Can anybody help me with this? Thank you!

Are you using HTC home, by any chance? I've had this issue quite a few times before. I haven't had any dupe text messages after I uninstalled HTC Home - Just a thought.
No, but I'm using HTC Homeplug 1.12.0.0, but it was installed via the Kitchen, so I don't think it can be uninstalled. I guess I'll wait a week or so and if it keeps happening I'll contact Verizon if it does. Thanks.

It's still happening but not as often as it was doing it. I complained to them a while ago about getting email notifications as a SMS everytime I got a new hotmail email message. I wonder if they did something while they were working on this complaint. The SMS was from OZMail wish is a Verizon applicaton for email that I used, but stopped using. Well, I guess I will call them and see what they say.

[Q] I'm Not Receiving MMS Messages

Ok, I've been searching the forums for a few days looking for an answer to this but have been unable to find one. I'm running a rooted X2 with the V6 script and for the past week or so my phone has been weird. I'll get MMS messages one day from one sender and they'll try the next day and it'll never go through, I'm getting this problem from all carriers. I use Handcent but for a few days I uninstalled it and used only the stock text messaging app and still had the same problems. I also, at times will not receive any notification at all that I have an SMS and then when I check my phone I'll have duplicate messages from numerous all come in at once when they've only sent the message one time. So far, the things I've tried are battery pulls, updating roaming capabilities, turning the V6 script off, and using different messaging apps and have been unsuccessful. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
There is an ongoing issue with SMS/Kmart messages in another thread. Probably a good idea to merge them. You've tried all the suggestions I would give.

Anyone else getting duplicate text messages?

Ever since I picked up my Inc4G, I seem to randomly get double text messages. Its not from just specific contacts, not from specific carriers, and seems to have no pattern. Sometimes I'll even get three of the same message. I've never had this happen on any of my other phones. Already wiped data to see if that solved it, no dice. Anyone else?
I've gotten a ton of txt's in the last 24 hours because i have my servers at work set to txt me when stuff goes down and comes back up. Had a problem around 12:30 last night so my phone started blowing up.
ANYWAYS i compared the amount of alerts set out with the txt's received (45 in total) and the number was exactly the same on the phone over the course of 5 hours or so. I use Chomp for my txting app, but the txts still drop into the base txting app and i checked both, and the numbers are spot on.
Using stock rom, bootloader unlocked, custom recovery, rooted.
Sorry dude, sounds like a carrier issue though, more than the phone to me.

Sounds like you need to go to the Verizon store. That's almost certainly a carrier service problem (SIM, activation, etc.) rather than software.
I've received MMS and SMS just fine.
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using xda app-developers app
I have seen this on other phones as well. Delete and recreate the mail accounts and it should clear up the double texts etc.
He said he wiped data in the OP though.

I've never had that happen. Sometimes on my old Dinc, my recipient would receive multiple duplicate texts from me, but that was only if I was receiving a text at the same time I sent one and it made me try to resend, even though the first went through.
As for the split parts, in my experience, any phone from a different network with over 160 characters will come in as multiple texts, as well as any non-smart phone on your own network.
text glitch?

I don't get duplicates, but what happens on mine is after I send a text, there will be the last word of the message I just sent sitting in the new text box. Its random too, every now and then.

This started happening to me after i updated Swype, so i went back to the previous version and that seemed to take care of it.

[Q] Galaxy S3 wont receive text messages

hey guys, I searched the forum and so far no one has been able to give a clear answer. So here I am. I got my S3 about 10 days ago. And what I've noticed is that sometimes my message tone will play for no reason. Like the message tone will play, when I check my phone, nothing. Absolutely Nothing. Then my friend tells me that he messaged me. I'm like no you didn't. I've noticed that I don't get a lot of texts actually. I also noticed that while I was in a call, I received the message. Any ideas?
When I first read your title I immediately thought that it may be due to your 'Message Center' information (within the SMS settings) not being populated. However, reading your "symptoms" that's probably not the case. It might be worth checking either way though.
Are you using a stock rom?
Was this issue ever solved?
I have the same issue (Omega 34 rom)
The phone will vibrate and LED will flash, but no message is received. It only happens occasionally.
Any thoughts?

[Q] Alcatel Fierce 2 not getting notifications

Anybody know what would cause this? My girlfriend just switched over to Tmobile and got the Alcatel Fierce 2 phone. Her text messages and other notifications are extremely delayed.
The weird part is, even Hangouts messages are extremely delayed on wifi. All of the notifications come in at once every hour or two. I thought maybe it was an issue with the sim but that wouldn't explain push notifications coming in through wifi.
What is going on with this thing? We've tried factory resetting it, we've had them "refresh" the sim card, and we even changed the phone number for that account thinking that maybe transfering a number from a previous carrier was causing problems. Any help would be appreciated! Its running 4.4.2

Check your sync settings under accounts in settings.

I noticed during the set up it asked me questions I did't really know the answer to and in all the confusion I noticed I changed the network type to WCDMA. I did alot of troubleshooting and found that T Mobile only uses GSM so this is why my messages and calls weren't working. I hope this helps. The phoen still runs kind of slow but after experimenting I now know this is the cause of the delayed messages and missed calls.
