I don't know if this just a problem with my phone, but I can't see what time a text was sent if it wasn't sent today. After I select a message marked yesterday or some other past date, I click on "View message details," and I just see the date it was sent or "yesterday."
I checked a friend's Samsung Moment, and it displayed the time the message was sent, no matter when it was sent! Did I do something to screw up my phone? I am not technically proficient, just followed these guides to root and flash a ROM on my phone. I have Fresh ROM 1.1 (you got skills flipzmode) running with MoDaCo's Custom Kernel 1.2 (modaco, you're sick, too), and a clear theme on top of it all.

Are you in Arizona? I believe if you search the forum or even google you will see people in that time zone complaining times are not correct.
No, I'm on the East Coast.
The problem isn't with traveling and receiving messages at different times, but just reading what time I received or sent a message. If a message was received sent any other day than today, I'm not able to see what time the person sent it or when I sent one.
When I was using handcent this wasn't a problem, just now with the stock messaging app. Could someone else confirm that this is a problem with my phone? Just open your stock messaging app, select a conversation that took place on a day other than today, and see if you can find out what time the message was sent or received.
It's a shortcoming of the HTC messaging app. Check the same message in Handcent and you'll see the timestamp when picking "View message details".
That's sad stuff. Thanks for the reply. I'll donate to whoever fixes it!
Edited to add: Is there a way to port over another messaging app? Maybe the one from the Moment?

Facebook for android? not sure why but I changed the settings to manual notifications and it killsmy battery life.... , anyone elsE?
seems to look and act a lot more like facebook mobile now
the update was crap with some okay kinda cool features, but it sucks completely. They just dont care too much about it. I mean, Twitter apps are more popular for android then Facebook, and I only know 2 people that use that social thing.
The new update messes up notifications for me. Every time I use facebook chat or message, I get a notification "you have one new message," and when you tap on it it doesn't bring you to the message. This is very annoying because if I'm on the website chatting, I'll get multiple notifications to my phone that I got a new message even though I'm not signed onto chat on my phone. I reverted back to the older version.

I'm seeing alot of bugs with this update myself. Uploading videos is nice, the mobile site feel is nice, but the status update page always reloads and never just stays put. I have to switch over to my profile if I want to update my status. I thought maybe it was a fluke and even tried clearing the app data and then uninstalling and reinstalling the app, no luck.

Hi again, well so i successfully flashed the rom and its smooooothhh as butter. Except that when i try to compose a new message and type a contact in the recipient line, it looks as if it comes up blank box. At first i thought that maybe i had to import my contacts on to the phone it self rather then just on the sim card. When i tried again nothing changed but i touched the box that pops up this time when i write a contact and apparently the font works, it seems as if its white text on white back but i changed the background and its still invisible. So basically im just wondering if is this just me or does anyone else have this problem. Also i was curious if maybe there was something i could flash so i could have the original messaging app for the sidekick and not the android one. Much thanks for the help
I may have not really explained my problem so ill try and do it again; you know when your typing a new message and you want to, for example send it to your friend George, so you type G-e-o and basically a box appears under to try and auto complete what you were typing. Basically the box itself appears but the content inside is invisible

i used cm as a base for my rom RAGE 3.0.1 and i am noticing this as well, im going to look into a fix for this when i have time. It basically a white on white issue. If you touch and hold the contact area can you read it?
The Sidekick's stock messaging app is heavily integrated with the zipwip and t-mobile software that rom developers are desperate to rip out.
The answer in all cases is to use apk tools to get at some source code and make the neccessary changes yourself.

Yeah i figured that original message app is much slower then android but i like it more for some reason and it lets me block people on texting haha. Do you think their is a easy "noob" way of getting it like with a apk download or zip flash already out?
Hey everyone,
I was wondering if you all could help me out. I have installed the 7/22 build of jellybean and I send quite a bit of text messages. The problem is, I send a lot at one time and in JB, it stops me after I've send about 4 messages within a minute or two to the same person, asking me to allow this to happen. If I don't say allow, the text message will not send. By text message, I do mean sms to be specific. I searched through settings and found nothing to stop this message from popping up. I love the stock messaging app and I don't want to have to give it up unless there is no way around this. Does this happen to you and if so does anyone know a way around it? Thanks
hey i am running the 7-22 and gapps 7-19
i just sent 5-6 texts to my fb status update system and they all went through with no errors and they were sms messages
also i am having no problems receiving mms

I'm currently trying to recreate the issue. It's happened several times with normal text messaging to my girlfriend. It basically tells me that I've sent a lot of sms messages in a short period of time. A prompt comes up telling me that after I hit send. In order for the message to send I have to say "allow" in the prompt. The other option is, of course, "deny". This is an android OS prompt, not a superuser prompt. I can't seem to recreate it at the moment with google voice as my contact, but I'm sure it will happen again tomorrow when I'm texting my girlfriend and I will screen capture it, unless anyone knows what this is and how to disable it of course.

After some very specific searching, I found one topic in the GNex forums about the issue. It seems to be security for SMS bombing apps. Kind of a bummer for me. I hope this is disabled in the future or toggled somewhere. http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1742226.html

Oh, weird, I've never gotten that or even heard that function existed. I bet someone could pretty easily hack the messaging app to remove that limitation. It seems like a valid security feature though to prevent any app from mass texting. Maybe you should just write longer messages, haha.

Yeah, I am having the same problem on my HTC Inspire 4G running unofficial CM10 called JellyTime by randomblame ported to my phone. The easiest way to avoid this would be to get a second texting app and bounce back and fourth between the 2 apps. I was running Go SMS Pro and got the same prompt. So that's the best way I can think of to avoid the prompt for the time being.
Ever get one of those "You just won a $1,000 shopping spree at Best Buy" messages?
That's what this is supposed to prevent from happening to you, so your phone doesn't text random people who aren't even in your contact list.
I would say... put up with it. Eventually the mass SMS spammers will get the hint and they'll stop, at which point someone at Google will lift the limit, unless an app dev fixes the apk itself, at which point you'll have to manually monitor outgoing messages.
Edit: I wonder if someone has tried taking the messaging apk from gapps 4/29 and put it in the gapps 7/26 package? Would be a sensible attempt at avoiding the security block, but not sure if it would negate the security feature itself...
Actually, there is an app for rooted users that I found while using the search feature, called BAMF SMS fix. Check it out. Unfortunately I no longer have the link to the file, but I still have the file itself. PM me if you need the file. It is a flashable .zip

Hello, I am running CleanRom 5.6 on my verizon galaxy sIII and everything is working great. However I have one problem. The stock message app works great but it does not allow for group test message to show up on one message i.e. you get individual message instead of getting one single message. I solved this by installing go sms pro or handcent. NOw the problem that I am having is that when people send me a .gif image file I can see the picture but it is not moving. I have tried opening under the stock text app, go sms pro, and handcent but no one them work. At have had it working a few time but the majority of times it does not work i.e. the image does not move. I have searched online a lot but there is no one consensus on how to fix this problem. I hope someone know what I am talking about and can help me because I am not the only one who is having the problem. Thank you.
p.s. I do not know whether the problem is being caused by an iphone user sending the .gif file or whether that does not matter.

Im not 100% sure here but pretty sure the Android OS doesnt fully support .gif anymore at least? seems like alot of people cant only get the first frame of a gif to run on their phones now.
I have the Galaxy S7, 930F international version (Brand new). All works well, except the Messages app splits received group messages into individual threads. I have tried other texting apps and, for one reason or another, concluded that (for me) the stock Messages app would be best for me, if only this one flaw was corrected. Read a lot of threads similar to this but many seemed to address it for USA version. I'd like to maybe update the app, but can't seem to find a way to manually update this particular app (I can manually update nearly all of my stock apps, but this one is not allowed). Anyone have (what seems like) an easy fix. Again, my phone is the 930F international. Country info on the phone references United Arab Emeriates, if that helps. Otherwise, the phone is great!
Have you tried textra?

Thank you. Yes, that's what I've been using, in lieu of the stock app. In fact, I have tried a multitude of replacement apps (you name it, I've tried it). But for one reason or another, they all fall short in something. Textra is not very good on voice-to-text and if I have to send a text while driving, or a long text while golfing, it's something I can't easily do with Textra. But the stock app is excellent on voice-to-text. Also, the stock app uses fewer clicks to locate and attach pics & video. In fact, for my liking, the only thing the stock app misses on is the threading for received group messages. But that's a biggie. Nothing worse than watching a football or basketball game remotely and texting a group of friends, and while you can send out your text in a group text, everyone's replies keeps showing up in a separate individual threads. Their replies (intended for the group) are then mixed in with private text conversations you've previously had with that same person. Ughhh!

Not sure what you mean. By "last release of Samsung" do u mean the latest version of the stock app? I tried to update it and the phone would not recognize that app as being able to manually update. If you mean update to marshmallow, I already have version version 6.0.1

Go into messaging app, hit more (top right corner) then settings, then more settings, them multimedia messages and make sure group conversation is ticked on and I also have auto retrieved ticked on, all other features are turned off. That's what fixed it for me, mine was the same way as yours before I changed those settings, it was very annoying! All is well now!
