weird text message. helppp

i just bought my tilt, just flashed to dutty v3 room and now i get a weird text every 4 mins. the number is 111145643 and it says wvi1 1.1 1111. is there anyway i can stop that text?
thanks!

Hmm I think you should call your carrier. Unless your phone is somehow sending itself a message, the kaiser probably isn't the culprit.

did you have express mail setup? if so you have to reinstall it on the phone then log onto the express mail server and delete the connection that you made for push e-mail or turn off push, then uninstall express mail on the phone and reset. you should be OK

^^I stand corrected!

I think that is for the IM+ program that ATT provides on their roms for im. The company is called wireless village i believe. I was bugged by it for a while, well the full hour I had my device before I flashed schaps!
I use Palringo until trillian gets a clue about wireless devices. It can sync with AIM, Yahoo, MSN, Gtalk, and others.
BTW, It uses data instead of sms to send messages like the IM+ does.

i had the same question but alltheway awnsered it for me already... its kind of a side effect of flashing sometimes. it will go away on its own. i think i got it like 8 times and havent had it since.

its not necessarily a side affect of flashing, it can go away if you reinstall the app that was on the old rom that is causing it... its something that was installed on your previous rom that used silent sms to alert the program to perform a specific function. LIke PTT, expressmail, or the cing/att IM client (to tired to remember the name)... When these programs are running your phone will recieve a ghost message that is only read by the app to wake it up. Alot of these problems were seen in the hermes thread and PTT.

Nope....That is what you get when someone tries to PTT you. Without PTT you get an SMS message. The way PTT works is basically Voice MMS messaging with a trigger to open & close the voice connection (PTT Button) Those digits you see are altered SMS addresses, they are altered so that PTT can recognize them & shift it from SMS to PTT.
Agin, whenever you kill PTT, you lose the ability to decipher the modified address & hence, it's received as a MMS instead. The reason you keep getting it is because the request that was sent retries a certain number of times before failing.

why dont you ask that question in the correct thread....the one that deals with your rom??

Well, that would make Dutty's never ending post even longer. We should save that post for other problems directly regarding the rom, and comments on new updates.
Beside, I believe the problem has nothing to do with Dutty's V3, it work flawlessly for me.

I am just so tired of more or less stupid questions that constantly are repeated because newies does not take their time and READ before starting threads and asking questions. This has to stay in the DUTTY thread - my opinion.
We shouldnt end up in a new HERMES forum with all the noise and bad mouth it had last year
I do not have anything against stupid questions in general - just do some searching and reading first..
So welcome all - lets use SEARCH some more..

Wow man take a breath! Your gonna get an ulcer.

to his defense i havn't seen this question in dutty's thread at all. and i've only seen it once but not onthe kairser forums. so cut him a lil slack. plus we all learn something from it...ptt or express mail can cause this. thats sure something i didnt know. hope all is well now...enjoy your device sir.

This question was answered on the hermes forum. That is how I solved my issue. I still believe it deals with the IM app from att that uses wireless village. Ill try to find some links to help get it solved.

I couldnt find the thread in the hermes section that described the issue. It might be from OZ messanger and not IM+. It is the version that comes preinstalled from the ATT rom. It is designed to use sms to im therefore making ATT more money.
I had the same text messages when I first got the Kaiser and ran the im software. I believe my test message had a different set of numbers at the end.
Here is a link to Wireless Village. They are a group that is promoting interoperability between handsets for a variety of functions (IM included).
http://www.openmobilealliance.org/tech/affiliates/wv/wvindex.html
EDIT:
I found this article from the cingular...er...ATT forums. This is the issue I originally had and the same text from the same number. The issue below is because OZ messenger was closed and not properly exited.
http://forums.cingular.com/cng/board/message?board.id=samsung&message.id=16362
I spent all day yesterday figuring this out. I downloaded and install the .cab file to my storage card and then logged into the IM program (OZ). After signing out, it kept me logged into all 3 services (Yahoo, AIM, and MSN) and then I proceeded to receive 40+ text (SMS) messages b/c it was trying to "reach me". After sitting on the phone for about an hour and half with a great Data Service Tech Rep, we figured it out and now the IM program works just fine.

You know - Generally I don't get into these types of little spit / spat arguments - but today you have caught me at the perfect time.
Martinhdk - you are the type of person that makes dealing with the public so hard. You complain about things that aren't even worth complaining about. Sure - it was Dutty's ROM, but in essence had absolutely nothing to do with the ROM, it's probably the push to talk causing the issue. (Because I have the same issue) You had to try and prove yourself by spouting off and telling someone how to run things, when really, you were in the wrong.
Sometimes people get anxious and maybe don't do as much searching as they possibly should. Big DEAL - you are in a forum and since forums began it has been a problem. Does this require that you lay into the guy and tell him how stupid his question is? NO, it doesn't. You must be one very unhappy individual who probably lives a very lonely life - do us all a favor, in the future; keep your comments to yourself and let the moderators do their job.
I apologize to XDA - I know this thread / forum is not used for this. I just feel that sometimes these guys who insult someone younger / or maybe just not as experienced have a tendency to scare these guys away and I don't feel that is right.

i had the same exprience , its not the problem with your carrier , its the ATT IM+ app , if you exit the app w/o logging out of messenger app you keep getting this wierd msg , i tried unintsallng the app but no luck , finally i relashed a new rom and the error went away.

SOLUTION
What you do is you sign in to AIM at a desktop computer, the screenname you signed in on your phone. than a message will pop up saying you are signed in at two places and if you reply to that window with "1" it will sign you out at the other location, your phone. that should stop the messages.
the AIM service on your phone used txt msgs and when you close the program without first signing out. it usually causes that problem.

Stealth message?
I've heard of this so called "stealth" text message used by the carriers to send commands to the phone. My next question is - is it possible to send one of these so called "Stealth" messages from a phone to anther phone - with the proper instructions encoded in the text msg to automatically appear either on the users screen or in their inbox? I have heard this is possible but am very interested if someone could provide me a little more insight on it....

It's possible, it's been done. Would you like to know how? How do you want to send the malicious code? BT? WIFI? MMS? Maybe I can get you my bank account number & ssn while I'm at it?
There are other forums for that type of stuff, some proggies to do this are actually security auditing tools. Most all means though require the user to acknowledge receipt of whatever you send & then require them to execute it. However, I sincerely doubt that anyone here is going to give you any means to do something that may harm someone's device. Sure, you just want to play a prank, but how about the guy you then teach it to?

stupid question but..

ive downloaded couple songs to device via windows media but how do i set them as ring tones? and how do you change the msg tone??

Its great, except this is the questions and answers section, saying google it (without even a proper answer in the list) doesn't necessarily get the job done.
"set ringtone ppc" does the job proper. Everyone knows where google is, they probably used it to find this site. The Purpose of the q&a section is not to promote google traffic. If you are going to refer someone somewhere, please make sure you refering them to exactly the right place.

I wasn't planning on using it in the Q&A Section of course -
Being a team player!
But it will be fun to use in other cases sometimes. I will of course change the auto google search to be relavant to the topic of discussion and make sure that it directs to helpful links. All in fun

I know with my device - Audio Manager has the feature to set MP3 as ringtone.
You can follwo advice above also - . I suggest using a trimmer program to cut the MP3 to save space on your device though.
Another cool app you might want to take a look at for MP3 ring tones is the mp3 ringtone randomizer found at this link here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370527
just direct the program to the specified folder with your mp3 ringtones and it will automatically randomize your ringtone for each call. I love this.

Sorry, just trying to be funny, but the first link in the list tells him how to set an MP3 as a ring tone, and the second link in the list tells them how to set a message alert. First two links answered both his questions. What could be better than that ?
This is question and answers, but even so, come on . That is Cell phone 101 , read the manual, do a site search ( I have seen that question a hundred times ) make an effort. In some countries they prohibit you from ever owning a PDA again, for those questions.
Just , seriously, for clarification, are those the types of questions that Q & A forum is for ?

Yup - Any and every member needs to feel that they can ask any question - no matter what - even extreem "Noob" questions in the Q&A section without being flammed. It is asked that every member respect this and if answering a question in the Q&A Section that you don't just say "Search" or "Read the WIKI" but at least provide links to WIKI if you are referring to this. I personally don't see the harm in the link you provided "although funny" serves two purposes. You didn't flame the OP for asking silly question but provided a useful (and funny) link that pointed him in the right direction to answer his question and aslo made a statement that a simple search would have answered the question. I see no harm in that either as there are a lot of people who do not take the time to search for themselves or they just don't know what keywords to use in the search field. (You also provided hints on what kind of search words to use) When I answer questions in the Q&A Section, I Provide links to where they can find their answer to their question or just sometimes answer it right there it it is an easy question; however, after answering I sometimes point out that searching using certain keywords would have yielded results (I like your way better) There are a lot of questions asked that seem rather simple and "Noobish" to us, but to beginner's they need to be shown how to properly use this forum sometimes and I think that the Q&A section is a wonderful thing for everyone because, there is so much to learn and it can be very overwhelming especially for new commers.

This should work for you...

Following the raptious support and humiliation ive suffered, i guess i can only blame myself for not only including what phone i have (htc touch hd) but more so not taking the time to research such questions properly!
Unfortunately i havent had 5 mins to myself to play with all areas of the phone, but now ive managed to sort the ringtone situation out, aided by the mp3 trimmer!
I guess its easy for those high up on knowledge to look down and laugh when you dont know jack, but hey done now, although saying that, i cant find where i can possibly delete some of the ringtones/beeps that come as standard, maybe someone could help me out there? again would be appreciated.

Firstly, have a sense of humor dude, or you won't last very long here
Secondly, find those files in your ringtone folder with file explorer, or in your windows folder, file explorer>my device>windows your files will be in there.

I did laugh at some of the replies mate dont worry, and thank you for your help though, i did try deleting the tones but kept coming up "error deleting file" so i cant delete anyway but thanx

The " base " ringtones that come with the rom, are written into the rom and cannot be deleted. All other tone and notifications can be added and deleted anytime.

alright cheers, but i set couple songs to be ringtones, ive since deleted them from windows media library and on file explorer on the phone, but still they show up as available to choose as a tone????

Yes but did you delete them from the /windows folder, that is where they are played from.
Then Soft reset.

yep i did that, and still there available to choose as tones!

Audible alerts for missed calls?

Does anyone know of an app that will give a intermitant audible alert for missed calls, texts etc. So every minite will give a tone to alert of missed call.

I believe that a piece of software available on these very forums called "Re-Remind" should be what you are after!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=498161

phoneAlarm
check out phoneAlarm (http://www.pocketmax.net) -- everything you need and more...

I use S2U2, works fine!

tested
one day of testing
ReRemind - remidners are not working, problems with unistalling (programmer whos leaving starting icon in windows startmenu after unistalling process, probably made more mistakes inside program code)
s2u2 - slows device, to big app for such simple functions
PhoneAlarm (trial) - vibration reminders works quite well, but freezes system when phone in lock mode, program have good function like notify for instant messaging
thats it, no more programs for reminding?
best regards

g-profile
Another solution.
Do not affect system speed. Nice looking. Vibration remiders works how it shoulds on factory sofware. Unfortunately app is not freeware, but price is affordable (5eur).
Only one function is missing. Reminders for IM like in PhoneAlarm.
Any idea how to force Parlingo to:
1. flash LED when message recieved
2. work with g-profile (registry hack?) using vibra-reminders?

I have gone through this thread and cleaned up the off-topic posts. A reminder that members have two options when visiting a thread:
Option 1
Responding with helpful and constructive information as opposed to "use the search", "try Google", etc.
Option 2
Move on. There is absolutely no reason to respond in a rude tone or to make someone feel stupid ... it is not constructive and serves no purpose.
There seems to be a significant amount of animosity of late in the HD2 related forums. I'm not certain as to why this is, nor do I want to hear any reason for justification; what I do know is that it is unacceptable.
XDA is about bringing together folks who have similar passions about mobile technology. As the forum is accessed worldwide, you will encounter all types of folks from different walks of life; some of these folks will be extremely technical, others not. In all cases, it is the responsibility of all members to remain respectful of one another. We all have different opinions, we do not all have the same level of knowledge, and some folks are looking to feel like they are learning while trying to contribute.
If this thread is reported once more, I will be looking to suspend the accounts of all members who post off-topic comments. I would remind members that the best moderation is self-moderation.

[Looking for] Incoming call app with customizable info

Hi guys,
I recently started a new job which will require me to receive calls from many different people. Each of these will be from a different company and I will have talked to them about a specific product or a specific application/problem they had.
So I was wondering if there is an app that allows me to add info for each contact so that when I receive a call from John, there is a pop-up or a string that tells me who John is and what he might want from me.
Hope that's clear!
Thanks in advance, looking forward to your answers!
Mario

Something either as a phone app or a pop-up that can show notes on a contact, maybe recent interactions, subjects, etc.
I have heard of an app that does this but I don't remember what it was called. It was meant for business interactions with clients. If I find it I'll update my post.
Edit:
I believe what you want might be a CRM app, what a quick search found was a few that may match your needs.

Or possibly
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netmine.rolo.crm
I haven't used either one but it gives you an idea of where to look possibly if these aren't for you.
Hope it helps!

Google Search Notifications

I've got a weird issue that has sprung up in maybe the last month or so. I use the Google feed
(whatever the thing is called when you swipe right on the home screen) fairly often. It's a good place to get a daily dose of things that I'm interested, world news, and local news. For over a year, I used to get notifications throughout the day of articles that I may be interested in. This was a nifty feature as it would do a good job of showing me articles I may have not seen otherwise.
Then...SOMETHING....happened. It stopped doing that.
Now I just get notifications of a single topic. One specific topic. (Final Fantasy XIV for the curious)
The notifications will be the title of an article, for instance, "Final Fantasy XIV teleport prices to change" or anything like that. But if that weren't enough I'm only being sent one single subject, when you click on the notification it just takes me to a Google search of the topic, that then lists several articles about the topic.
Is this a new feature or did I bork something somewhere? I read to turn off notifications for topics, and I did. But daily I still receive notifications where Google gives me the finger and instead of linking the article just googles the subject and tells me to go find it myself.
Yes, sure, I love FFXIV, but I want more than just that and Google searches. Is this how these notifications now work, or did I click on something stupid to mess it all up?
Thanks for any help!
