I can send MMS just fine, but I cannot receive them from other networks. Upsetting.
im having these issues to but mine has not been rooted. I can receive pictures all day long fine, i just cant send them with any reliability. Restarting when it says "sending" doesnt work to force it send for me. I was in a 3g town yesterday and didnt have much problem sending pics, back in home town today on EDGE and having issues yet again.
Anyone got any thoughts?
I have had the same issue. I was even unable to send a picture through gmail as an attachment yesterday while in a 3g area. today i can send one through my corporate e-mail but still no mms. I have rooted and removed the att junk with ti backup. I dont think i removed anything that would effect mms though. I have also tried a factory reset. It deleted all my apps and settings but i did not have to reroot. It also did not return any of the att programs. Any help with this issue would be great.
had the same issue...could not send PIcs at ALL. took it back, got a replacement and it sent one fine.... then i tried again and didnt work. WTF?
I am an att manager and I have a captivate and have sold tons of others. I spoke with galaxy s support last week and they are going to call me back Monday to let me know if they have a fix yet. The tech said that he got it to work 2 out 10 times trying mms. As soon as i hear the fix i will post for all.

Good to hear we have an insider on board
I seem to be on the same boat, however:
Can't send pictures to my dad (AT&T, iphone)
Or my mom (ACS; local Alaska carrier)
But send em' just fine to my girlfriend(AT&T via LongLines Cellular towers)
Boy does that make sense
I had the same issue with sending MMS but was able to figure out a work around. It appears it is something related to the message size. If I crop an image, and the message size stays under 80kb, it will send with no issues. Not sure what the magic number is where it stops sending but will post once I figure it out.
Non-rooted Captivate, had a similar problem receiving MMS for the first week (purchased July 18th). Specifically, I could not receive MMS from Verizon customers unless they were using a Blackberry. Verizon customers using LG and Samsung phones, I got nothing. Verizon customers using a Blackberry, MMS would come through to me fine. SMS worked fine to and from all carriers and I could send MMS to friends on all carriers (and they would receive them properly, regardless of their device).
Tested with 3 different Verizon customers in 2 parts of the U.S. (cross-country), with Samsung Intensity and LG Envy phones on their end ... none of them could send me MMS. My screen would wake up as if something were coming in ... but nothing would ever come through. Very frustrating. Went to an AT&T store, duplicated the tests on their demo unit with the store manager's SIM installed.
The Fix (for my issue, YMMV):
AT&T's billing system was correctly showing my device as a Samsung Captivate, but their network provisioning system was showing the device field as blank (which apparently defaults the behavior to "non-smartphone," for what it's worth). The tech submitted a ticket to correct that, as apparently everything had to be in order before the network folks would take a look at the problem. Turned out that simply correcting that field fixed my MMS issue (since it registered my phone in the "smartphone" category). Note that I was told that correcting that field usually takes them 5-7 days, since it's not considered critical, but she pushed it through more quickly.
Customer Support
I have to include this bit here, because the customer support I received was amazing and far beyond what I expected. I understand that I may have had better luck than most. Got to a higher level tech with no fuss, and she immediately took ownership and had excellent communication, emailing me and following up with multiple phone calls to keep me in the loop with what she was doing. I've been thinking about switching carriers, but AT&T finally releasing the Captivate (even with the GPS issue, etc.), coupled with this tech's absolutely superb customer-focused support, will keep me here for awhile longer (and I'm definitely going to send her a glowing email saying just that, which I hope she forwards to her supervisor).
All my MMS works but 1 just showed up as a play symbol. It was a wide picture.
I know this is probably something that can't be fixed without working with T-Mobile, but they can't seem to figure out what the problem is and I'm getting desperate
Whenever someone sends me a text I get duplicates of it over and over until I turn on WiFi calling, which seems to work fine. I have had this problem with two different G2x (I sent the first one back thinking it was a hardware issue). This also does not happen on my Nexus One (I moved the SIM card back over and the issue disappears).
I am thinking it has to be something to do with the communication between the G2x and my T-Mobile cell network. Any information anyone has about this that could help me help T-Mobile find the issue would be great.
Thanks.
You don't have another messaging app installed, do you?
First thing I did when I got the replacement was sync Google contacts and tell someone to text me and it started happening. I factory reset the original one I had 3 times and the problem persisted.
Are you running juicedefender? I get duplicates of some messages because juicedefender shuts off mobile data, so the network doesn't receive the notification that the MMS was received. It will try and resend every 5 minutes for a specified number of times until the message is received.
Nope, had no apps installed. Plus I get the duplicates sometimes less than 1 minute apart.
Thanks for the responses so far. This problem is really starting to get irritating.
I was getting a lot of duplicates. Seems to have spied for now. No clue what was doing it
Its really irritating because I love the phone, but I can't use it if I am constantly getting spammed by duplicate text messages.
yea i got 55 texts from 12 am to 11 a m from the same person 2 different texts and it kept going for a couple hours after too idk why i just got a new one today though but it's got a bad bleed so im just returning it and going to wait a week or two hope they solve it by then already sent lg a pic so
If your problems anything like mine a replacement won't fix the problem, unless I somehow got stupendously unlucky.
Anyone figure this out. I have the same problem. It is not every text message and not every person. It is pretty random. The same person can send me 4 texts 2 are normal, one repeated twice and one 24 times over a period of time, usually a couple hours.
Check any of the apps/widgets that have anything to do with calls/texts, even just showing a number of unread texts. If there are any that have the permission "Your Messages: Send SMS-received broadcast" uninstall it and see if the problem persists. I think I may have had an app called Organizer Widget that was blocking my phone from sending that broadcast.
I had your problem.
I was running on stock G2X, and I was receiving text after text after text.
I spent time on the phone with the T-Mo reps, and he concluded that:
"it's a server problem. You see, our messaging database isn't reading that your phone got the text, and thus it re-sends it in hopes that it receives it."
Basically, he is saying that the messaging server is tripping. But, this is not exactly true, because if it was the messaging server, then it would be universal. It is simply a G2X stock-rom problem.
I think it actually might have something to do with the baseband, but I am not sure if CyanogenMod updates it or fixes it when flashing.
I have a fix.
After I flashed myself some CyanogenMod, the problem was instantly fixed.
So, I think its a problem with the stock rom. Definitely. The CM rom works perfectly, no repeating messages. Also, the current nightlies are mighty stable.
I have this issue as well. It doesn't happen often but when it does it sends 10 or more duplicates.
I have handcrafted sms and launcher products which displays the number of texts on the dock. Running rooted stock.
It hasn't happened in a while, so I doubt it is related to the Apps.

I've had this issue on ALLLL my android phones I've owned . Even non Android phones and my unlocked iPhone. I have tried different similar cards as well.
I have noticed it happens the most when I receive messages from a Verizon user; followed by AT&T users. I never (not that I've noticed) had duplicates from Sprint or other T-Mobile users. Only Verizon and AT&T.
My point being I think it's a T-Mobile issue. Or a communication issue between providers.

I'm actually having this problem running CM7 Nightly 63, it's irritating as hell.
Dont know, but I'd like to know the problem too. I have chompsms installed but it shows duplicate in the stock messaging app too.
I really don't think it has anything to do with the phone...
Like I said earlier, all my phones have done it. Even my crappy clamshell Samsung back in the day. Or my unlocked iPhone.
Server makes the best sense.

I have the issue as well...although it seems to be only with certain contacts, however across every carrier. Averages 3-4 duplicates. Never had this problem before with any phone. SIM card went straight from my N1 to my G2X. Kind of an old SIM. Maybe I'll try a re-provision on a new SIM to see if that makes any difference.
Thank you @shaneledford, uninstalling organizer widget solved my problem... everything's back to normal

I've also had this problem with previous phones, though it tends to happen much more often when one of them is an Android phone. Only started happening with my phone before this one, though, but that was a Nokia non Android, so it's a fairly recent thing but not Android specific.

Fring always log me out when the phone is on Idle or display lock.
Has anybody here experience the same thing?
Its just annoying that everytime I unlock the phone display thats the time that Fring logs me in and I have no autotask killer installed on my phone
Sometimes it logs me out sometimes it doesn't eventhough Im always connected to wifi or 4G.
It should be ALWAYS running on the background. Any workaround on this? I just want to keep t running on background......
Thanks in advance!
HTC Sensation
Rooted, S-OFF, SuperCID
Same problem with me, but not because of Idle or display block. It just says I signed in from another device, and sings out after minute of signing on. It really sucks. And this new feature Playground also drives me crazy.
I guess it started right after updating. And the reason is this new feature, because it needs severe packet exchange.
For now, reinstalling of fring works for me, but I don't think it will stay long.
In General, this new update was awful. Some of my friends say that they saw me online when I actually was offline and also after asking me they realized that my account is used by different person. That's pretty sucks . Also I see in my list of people names which I never saw and never added. In add-ons it appears that some of accounts are singed in even I erased my account info.
If any of you guys have such problems, please, write. If it is not unique case. I prefer delete my account for a while because it seems fring team made some mess in a new update.
HTC Sensation,
S-On, Unrooted
Fring has a new update. They revert back to classic fring. Playground is a separate app now.
Still logs me out from intermittently...
As for the unknown friends. I just delete them. I'm still a Fring user their VoIP is amazing...

I only Tried Skype and call centric. So far fring has the least drop calls/ lost connection.. the only issue is, it logs me out intermittently
Interesting, on my Sensation, it stays logged in (though can't connect through wifi at the London office so it obviously uses a blocked port, just keeps trying in the background until I leave the office and it picks up 3G)
My fiancee has my old HD2 running a Sensation ROM and her's logs her out after a while.
Just got my One X from AT&T the other day.. Cancelled my Verizon contract to come over to this phone, came from an iPhone 4s.
This isn't my first rodeo when it comes to Android devices, I sampled just about every VZW device they offered.
After playing with the One X for a few days, I have noticed a couple things; one of which I think is a software bug.
1. Sometimes the WiFi doesn't disconnect, or realize that it is no longer in range of a connected access point. This morning for example, when I got to work it thought I was still connected to my home access point and as such wouldn't connect to the work access point, until I manually went into the WiFi settings. It's almost like a background process stopped and didn't start up again until I did something.
2. The HTC Sense integration with Facebook is really cool, however, even though I told it *not* to show any contacts on my contact list, when I sync my phone with my car's bluetooth system, it downloads not only the contacts I want to see, but all of my Facebook contacts also. Any way to use the FB integration but truly not download/present the contacts to a bluetooth device?
So far, I am really liking the phone. The screen is absolutely amazing and I really, really like what Sense 4 has added. I had a Rezound with the ICS rom on it, but you can definitely tell that HTC took a lot of feedback coming from the older versions of Sense and incorporated it into Sense 4.
all these bugs people are reporting should be addressed in a software update pretty soon. they will probably give it a few weeks to gather all the data, fix the problems (which they are already doing im sure) and get it OTA. the first software update should iron out a bunch of small issues we are running into!
Search wifi issue in forums using the search feature... But..
Change wifi settings in advance to 2.5 ghrz or was it 2.4

the fix for the WiFi issue is HERE, but you will have to root the phone first. The FB issue has also been posted in several places so hopefully AT&T will pick that up as well.
Ok so I've been with the sensation crowd since before we had even gotten rooted, plus on android since the epic dropped many moons ago. But I just recently started having problems with my sms. I try and send an sms to someone in my contacts, and like 90% of them get my sms. However there are a few that don't. On my tmous sensation it has sent and I even get the delivered message too on aosp. But the intended recipient never gets the sms on their end. It only seems to happen with contacts that own a sgs3. I was wondering if anyone else is having issues like this? And if so how'd you fix or work around the issue?
I've tried full wiping, and a clean install of my ARHD 6.8.0, tried other roms, scoured the internet via Google. I haven't seen any solutions or people having the same issue.
Please help if anyone has insight.
Thanks!
