Google Voice sometimes locks up while sending message - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Google Voice sometimes freezes when I send an SMS. It will show "sending...", with the down arrow showing on the right side. Then, the app will cease to function.
The message will have actually sent, but Google voice hangs as described. Pressing the back button does nothing, and there is a long pause between hitting the home button and it returning to the home screen.
Going back into the program leaves it right where it left off, with the sending message and the arrow. I cannot return to my inbox or any other label.
The only way to fix this is to close the Google Voice App via task manager and reopen it. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?
I have tried reinstalling it form the Marketplace and rebooting my phone. Neither resolved the issue.

try to uninstall and re-intall... clean all the cash and data

I have the same problem and I have tried the uninstall, clean the cache, reinstall, etc.
It's just a problem app on the Note/AT&T

Have had no issues with it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA

i've had this happen with every rom i've had on my note, even stock.. i think its a problem on google's end becuase my sensation does it too (not nearly as often) . time will tell

I've been having that same issue. Quite annoying since I'm relying on GV for texting to avoid the $20/mo AT&T charge. Even the correctly sent messages seem to lag. The biggest issues seem to be "new conversations" - once I get a few messages back and forth with the same person I don't have any issues or lag, but the first few cause problems it seems.

[Q] Dialer issues

Has anyone encountered problems with the dialer?
I can punch in a phone # and press the green button to dial, but it doesn't dial immediately. There seems to be a lag sometimes of up to 30-60 seconds.
Also, sometimes I cannot hang up a call. I press the disconnect button and it just doesn't do anything.
phone app/dialer issue
hello,
i think that the same happened to me. the problem that I am having concerns the phone app on my razr. very, very often when I try dialing somebody, after hitting the the dial button, the screen where is shown a larger photo of the person that I am calling appears then it flashes and disappears (saying <call time 00:00>, something like when the call is terminated) then it reappears by itself after 2 or 3 seconds and the call continues smoothly. this is a very annoying problem, not being able to have control of my calls.
i don`n know what could have started this problem because everything was working fine, and still is apart from this issue. i`m not a skillful android user but i managed to root my phone (making all the necessary backups), then using some specific apps for rooted phones (like titanium, motomizer etc.) and every thing was OK. Lately i`ve installed a navigation program for android to my phone (iGO) but i`m not sure if by doing this, the problem appeared.
to solve this, i`ve tried everything: uninstalling all the suspected apps, factory reset, rolling back my system to a previous backup, updating my system version from 651.73.30.XXXXX.en.EU to 651.167.19.XXXXX.en.EU, cleaning the cache/dalvik cache. the problem still persists...
if you guys have any idea what could have caused this please guide me through a solution.
thanks!

[Q] Weird Texting Issue (Queued Texts?)

I am having a weird issue with my LTE involving texts. This morning I restarted my phone and then a little bit later I got a couple text from some friends asking what I was talking about. I went into Handcent and looked at my conversations and found one text, which I sent on 6/5 or 6/6, was either resent or just sent for the first time this morning following the restart of the phone.
I called one of the guys asking him about the message sent to him and he said he never received it when I originally sent it, even though my phone showed it sent successfully.
Has anyone experienced anything like this?
this happens to me too. the radios seem to be able to only do one thing, so if while you sending, it needs to reconnect, connect to wifi,3g, or if you get a text, chat, or phone call while the first action is going (sending a text in this case) it seems to just hang. the thing being sent won't finish but looks like hanging forever (I've found some texts like 2 days later still spinning) and whatever the other action was won't come through. I've been told about chats or texts or talks sent to me I never receive if sending something, or usually the thing will hang for like 5 minutes and then I see I voicemail icon pop up and, surprise surprise, it came 5 minutes prior when my txt was hanging(it still is hanging, hangs forever) or a website loading hangs or connecting to wifi that never finishes. something about how this thing handles multitasking is just rubbish.
I think it has something to do with the way switching back to browser reloads the page, switching back to gmail reloads the composing page, switching back to angry birds forgets your pause and restarts the game, basically,I think they borked the multitasking somehow. sense itself reloads, quite embarrassing when trying to show off the phone, when you press home button from certain apps.
I've read if you flash a custom rom, it fixes all this. seems drastic to me, you'd think a hack would fix this.

[Q] Messaging app issues

So for the past few weeks my messaging app keeps crashing, no my app isn't overflowed with texts because i clear my texts every 5-6 hours, but there are random times when i receive a text message and as soon as i open it and respond the text message history goes blank and when i press the back button it shows that i have no messages at all. Then when i press back again my message app doesn't exit and it crashes. and when i try to go back into my message app there are no messages and i still get the same problem of not being able to exit the app. The only way to fix it is to restart the phone, however the issue comes back randomly after a few days.
Yes I have tried wiping everything, and also tried changing roms, but no luck.
Anyone know a solution to this problem?
Ask in the correct section next time.
Are you saying that you did a factory reset and flashed a completely stock ROM via Odin and you still have the issue?
Try another messaging app .

Had the issue when I first got my phone. Solved it by doing a full wipe (including wiping the internal storage)

I have tried Go messenger and it would freeze and die just like the stock one.

urgent help needed. factory reset didn't work

I have a 7100 sg3. I factory reset because my friend got a hold of my phone while I was asleep and tried deleting bloatware. In the process he seems to have gotten rid of, or made to stop working, the app that keeps calls log, as well using the dialpad on the phone to dial a number causes the phone app to freeze and crash, afterwards it says contacts crashed. After a phone call is completed the phone freezes until a message pops up saying that phone.sec has crashed.I also can't install apps wether from the market or 3rd party apk.
I've checked all the files that are related to these apps and they're all still there. Though obviously not operating properly. Oh another thing is that when I go to the application manager it doesn't show me how m much memory any one app is using. Also can't clear cache data.
Any and all ideas will be appreciated, comments to factory restore will be scoffed at

Anyone else with texts not sending issues?

Seems like over the past week or two, I am routinely getting errors when sending texts. Sometimes it is an MMS, other times a text to a single recipient.
Sometimes it happens, other times not. Happens on Wifi, and when in data.
If I reboot, it usually fixes it, but only for a short while.
it happens with both the Samsung Messages app, as well as the Google app.
Any ideas that don't involve hard reset of the phone? No other issues, just texts...

Having the same issue here. It seems to have appeared with this last update and is now occuring about every other text (outgoing only). I have so far been able to "tap to retry" and it sends after that but the fact that its even happening at all makes me hate this phone even more.
