ZTE Zpad K90U not receiving messages?
I just bought this device and I couldnt receive sms messages. the data sim has a phone number tied to it and it has texting capability. the tablet is the one that cannot receive it The tablet device didnt come with a stock messaging app, only hangouts out of box. I tried both Hangouts in SMS mode & Google Messenger. Why is this happening? Is there anyway I can get it to work?

Hi
There are some special message types.
Flash SMS
The Messages shows up directly after it was received, no need to open the Message app etc.
Silent Message (Silent SMS, Stealth SMS, Stille SMS or stealthy ping)
No message appears
Is there a way to log these silent sms arriving to my android?
Can we send flash/silent sms with android, any app for that?

couldn't find it on English wiki some one wanna add it?
Take a look at the 26C3 page there is a interesting talk about SMS «Fuzzing the Phone in your Phone»
Do you found any answer to this question, anywhere else ? I am using HushSMS for windows Molbile and look for the equivalent for Android.
I downloaded Flash SMS from the market and it does not work at all
Stock ROM doesn't provide API required for "special" SMS sending (ability to create whole sms body as byte array)
Yes, you can send this SMS with rooted Android via this app - https://www.silentservices.de/products/android-hushsms/
And yes, you can log incoming Silent SMS with this app https://github.com/CellularPrivacy/Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector/wiki/Special-SMS
Silent SMS/Ping app for Android (no root)
I've used this app for years and been pretty happy with it so far. It can be used on Android phones and does NOT require phone to be rooted to work and it's free.

Every time a text message is sent to my Google Voice number, I get 2 identical messages simultaneously: one in my google voice app, and one in my phone's "Messaging" app - and I get charged by T-mobile for the text message, even though it was sent to my Google Voice number??? Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

Disable the "Receive text messages on this phone" option in GV.
But I'd like to receive text messages on this phone via GV.. why would I want to disable that?
because it will still go to the google voice app, just not directly to the phone's text messaging program.

That makes no sense, but I did it anyway and it didn't work. I disabled text messaging option and sent a text message to my GV number - my phone didn't get anything. Sorry, but I don't understand how you expected that to work. Thanks anyway...
If you turn off the "receive text messages on this phone" the sms will still go to the google voice app inbox but not be forwarded to the "real" phone number as well. You check the texts and respond to them there, not through the default texting app. You disable this property by going to google voice (the website) going to the phone tab, finding your phone under "forwards to:", and clicking edit.
Oh, I'm sorry... I misread. However, after I disabled "receiving text messages on this phone", my GV app on the phone stopped notifying me of new text messages in my GV inbox, which is why I didn't think it would work. So now I need to figure out why it's not notifying me of new texts at all.
Nevermind - it arrived, but delayed.
Thanks for taking the time to explain. I appreciate your help.
No problem. If you setup the texts to forward to your email address or setup a separate one simply for the texting, you can receive notifications that way as well.
As long as the phone app notifies relatively promptly, that'll work. I was just worried because I never changed any settings in my GV account, and on my previous phone (Motorola Cliq), all texts only came to the GV app and never to the main messaging program.
Dumb question, but wondering if it's possible to text imported contacts. Don't want skype or fring, just standard texting over wifi.
You can send SMS text messages using Google Voice. If installed, it shows up as an option in contacts.
Thanks didn't look at google voice sms!
BTW, found anther way to sms from the flyer. Go to the market and get syncSMS. It's $2.99. Then get Dropbox, which is free. I put syncSMS on my nexus and it syncs both inbox and outbox from the phone to the tablet!
Have all original sent/received sms on the phone, even though the entire conversation took place on the tablet
Try TexTab Lite. Install it on your tablet and Android phone, start Textab on both, configure and connect devices with Bluetooth.
When phone received message, it will forward it using BT to tablet. You can view and reply directly on tablet your phobe will take care of sending.

Hey Everyone!
I recently just updated to Marshmallow and since then my Messenger App (version 1.7.050) is not displaying any setting for Group messaging. I can make a group message by adding people to a group conversation but it sends individual text messages to each person.
I can switch my default app to Textra, Hangouts, or Sony's default messaging and they all allow me to use group messaging correctly. They also all display the option in the settings menu to enable/disable group messaging. (Currently all of my texting apps are "enable" group messaging in hopes it will force Messenger App to work, but it does not).
I have uninstalled, re-installed Messenger multiple times, and have performed multiple restarts of the device itself. (still not luck)
Within the settings of Messenger it does display my number correctly, just no MMS/Group messaging Options
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you for any help!!!

I have the same issue. Also on MM and using T-Mobile. I started using hangouts and that works better for me, but MMS doesn't always send correctly using hangouts. Its been a pain in the butt trying to get SMS/MMS working consistently since the MM upgrade. I also tried Textra, and about 50% of the time my MMS would fail on that also. Sticking with Hangouts for now, but once an update gets released for Messenger I will try it again.
Hello,
As I use the Textra application, I root my phone and deleted the native application of messages and calendar.
Now the problem is that I do not receive messages but I can send them.
I did a hard reset, reset the phone but the application does not come back. I tried other applications and checked the settings but even problem.
Could someone send me the application. It is an orange background with the white bubble and 3 points in.
Thanks.
