Phone sending out texts? - HTC Inspire 4G

So I check my data usage alot via *3282#. I noticed that I have sent over 400 texts since I got this phone, but I don't remember texting that much because i don't text that much. Can anything like apps send texts?

The *DATA# measures outgoing and incoming messages so maybe that could make up for the difference? There are apps that will send/receive messages ad well, so you wanna double check any permissions of apps you download

Okay... so it should add by two then. What are apps that usually send data?

Not Receiving Text Messages

Not sure if anyone has came across this but its happened 3 times now, I have not done a factory reset yet but i think every time it has happened i have been temp rooted. I cant say this is the cause because i havent seen any other people complaining about it, i use Chomp SMS the Donate version i reboot my phone and i can receive texts again the funny thing is the texts people sent me i never get even after reboot. any ideas???
Thanks in Advance!!
Are you referring to when you know you got a message, and but then it's gone? Try downloading gingerbread ghostly sms in the market... That catches the messages before they're lost, and can allow you to move them to your inbox. I've used it for a while haven't had a problem with it

[Q] mms issue. People can't receive my pics

I am running the infused 1.5.3 rom and go sms. When I try to send a picture to my friend who has the exact phone I do and also my wife who has the iphone 4. They are both receiving this message
"Your phone is not compatible with this message type or size. Portions of this message will not be displayed."
Yet pics I send to my friend who has verizon go just fine. Is there some setting I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

Have you tried sending the message through the stock messaging app?

My friend with his infuse can send me pics and I can get pics from my wifes iphone 4 when she sends them as well but they can't get mine.

does your phone ask you if you would like to resize them when you try and send...if so are you selecting yes
are there any other changes that you have made like:
freezing thesms/mms app
using a different sms app
etc etc
and then the same goes for their end...
have they made any changes, do they receive pics from others and only not yours

I am using go sms and I've tried stock sms. I haven't froze any sms apps. It doesn't ask me to resize, just the usual compressing or resizing message it normally gives without prompting for a user response. My friends infuse is stock and not rooted and my wifes iphone 4 is jailbroken but nothing has changed anytime recently with it. The apps I have frozen is just media hub. Yes they can receive pics from others and send them as well.
Edit: I have media hub, maps, and news & weather frozen.
Actually it just reads "converting to multimedia message" no prompt for anything. Very frustrating as to why mainly verizon people are getting my pics and not others. Thats how it seems anyway.
As far as trying to send pics that I actually took with my phone then forget about it. Longest I've had it sit is about 15 minutes before I get pissed and just delete the send. Those stay stuck on "sending" and never go anywhere.

Anyone have any ideas? Maybe I'm missing some kind of setting after flashing infused

I use handcent...in the settings there is an option of "max mms message size limit"
I believe you want that to be 2mb...anything over that will not send to some phones.
that has been the only instance where some people did not receive my msgs.
Have you tried on wifi and network? I have not noticed the issue on att, but on sprint you could not send or receive mms while on wifi
those are the only things I can think of

I do currently have it set to 4g 5M for the photo size. I could give that a shot. Still odd that it would not send to my friends infuse I have tried wifi and att network and home I have the 3g microcell which is NOT worth the $200. I'm kinda pissed I bought it.
If you want full bars yet calls cut in and out and you want to resend each text about 4 times cause they will instantly fail (happens no where but when I'm connected to microcell) then pick one up lol
But yea the mms issue happens elsewhere as well.

I kept the size the same for now but unchecked preserve image size and now it seems the pics send. Yesterday it would be stuck on sending. I can only test with people at work. The ones with issues are asleep right now. Hopefully that or the 2m image size fixes the issue

Sending emojii

I have Go SMS Pro with emoji and while I can send it ot people on tmobile, I can't seem to send it to iphone users on ATT. Can anyone tell me if they have figured out how to make this work? Maybe a certain APN?
Are they getting formatted to mms? I am not sure as I don't use it but that may be a solution.

I've tried both sms and mms, one appears as a * and the other format appears as a "?"

[Q] how to send picture text messages with cyanogenmod

Hi, like the title says is there a way to send picture text messages and receive them on cyanogenmod? because of this issue i have been using miui
I never had this problem but try GoSMS
You need to set your settings right in apn. I send/receive fine.

Also remember you have to have back ground data turned on for it to work
Mobil's data must be on to send and receive picture text. Wont work with wi-fi only for some reason texting need mobile data to send pics.
Absolution also way better version of CM7 is my opinion. But to each their own flavor.

Its because mms use 1kb of data to send the info. Still. Not sure why CM roms don't work like OEM based when disabling data but forces it back on for MMS. Just always been that way.

[Q] Can I block messaging

I am using Infuse 4g. My plan does not include text messaging so I'm charged 20 cents for each message sent or received. I'm OK with that since I don't use texting.
But I'm getting unsolicited texts and I think some app(s) on my phone might be sending some. Grrrrrr!
Is there a way to block incoming and outgoing texts so that I don't get charged for these? Can I configure the APN to not request messaging? I am using AT&T.
Thanks for your assistance.

I don't have a sms plan either. And they charge a ridiculous amount. So I had the rep block texting on my account. I use google voice now with free unlimited text
But the lady had to block mms from coming through for some reason.
