Different message delivery notification?

On a previous phone I owned, the message delivery notification was just a little icon that appeared in the sent items list. On my N95 notifications were saved in a seperate folder without popping up on screen or ringing/buzzing.
On the raphael, delivery notifications are just normal text messages, which isn't the most practical solution. Is there software for WM that can change this behaviour? Turning it into an icon view would probably be difficult technically, but not displaying a bubble when the notification arrives and silently moving it to a seperate folder would also be a nice solution.
So, is there any way to enable this on the Raphael?

Anyone?...

I tried the program SMS reports eraser, but that doesn't do the job either :/
Is there software that just intercepts the report, marks it as read and places it in a seperate folder?

You should try MagiCall.

Thanks for the tip. I installed it, and made a rule saying that all SMS messages containing the word 'delivered' should be marked as read and moved to a seperate folder. I then saved, performed a softreset, and sent a SMS to a friend.
Unfortunately, this one doesn't work either Could it be that the TF3D interface is overruling the Messaging app, and with it blocking programs that try to tie into the messaging part?

I also find the way these are handled annoying compared to my old N95. The notifications don't even have the person's name, just the number which makes it even worse!
I tried SMS reports eraser and it stopped me from being able to send messages and when people sent them to me I never got them even though the other person got a delivery report!
A suitable program or idea for these would be great. This is my first windows mobile phone and that's probably my biggest issue with it, apart from that it's great.

Ignore this!

Start>Settiings>Sounds & Notifications Select Notification tab. Go to New Text Message. From there, you can select Display Notification on Screen. That keeps the popup to nothing more than the envelope in the top bar once you deselect it.
Hope that's what you are looking for.

Delivery reports have no phone number but with a sender name, such as 'System Administrator'. To filter them, just use MagiCall to filter that sender name. Example:
Rule type: SMS
Filter type: Sender name
Name list: System Administrator
Action1: Move to folder
To: spec_folder
Leave all other settings default values. It should work.

Solution
Well, i seem to have the same problem, but i have found using Advance Config software to actually solve this problem. I am not sure if that is what u guys are looking for but after using the Advance Config, i will get a msg saying "msg sent" whenever i send an sms, but not get any report. So i am assuming when it says "MSG sent" it is already a delivary report which i got from my previous WM from from other PDA.
So here is how u do it. First install Advance Config, then go into settings, under messaging tab, change "sms sent notification" from disabled to enabled.
And restart your phone. Once done, everytime u send an sms, u will recieve a buble box saying " msg sent" thats all. No rubish in your inbox.
Let me know if this help. Thanks!

Is there any way to see the persons name in the notification instead of the number? This has been annoying me since I got my phone

While this works, this isn't exactly what the previous posters wanted. They wanted the delivery reports and not the sent reports.
Symbian S60 intercepted these delivery report messages and then displayed them as "popup dialogs" to users before storing them into a separate folders. This is also one of my gripes about WM6. But I can live without delivery reports.

Install the attached cab file and it will solve your problem......It worked perfectly on my TP

oK, thanks, I´ll try it tomorrow

I'm having the same problem, I was post a new thread but I searched and found this.
I like delivery notifications, but the fact that it comes as a normal SMS instead of a popup notification like on other phones is really annoying.

I'm not getting any notifications (sent or delivered) and I want to get at least 1. I live in an area where I have pretty spotty service and it's annoying to find out an hour later that my text never actually sent. Is there any way I can turn it on?
I checked the htc manual and it says I should be able to enable a delivery report before sending the message or in message options. However, my message options are light grey so I can't click on them. It's been like this since I took the phone out of the box.
Thanks so much.

[Q] [NS4G] Getting weird texts from Sprint via 9016

I have received two very unusual texts that don't seem to make much sense to me.
//ANDROID:${from} has sent you a Sprint Voice Message. Call ${callbackno} to listen. CFGs1840.105f53c3ffe2cafd3961pAZFdYeN//CM
Click to expand...

Not entirely sure what this one is referring to. I don't use Sprint Voice mail because I use Google Voice. So my voice mail messages should be on that instead. I've never even bothered to set up the Sprint voice mail as I never have any intention of using it.
//ANDROIDrovisioning successful CFGv320c.0=07c5/tHGbo5//CM

Not entirely sure what this one means. Googling it showed that it meant a text was successfully sent and for some reason my phone didn't filter out the message. I didn't send a text when I received this one though.
Both of these were sent from the phone number 9016. Looking it up this seems to be a Sprint number of some sort. I asked some other Sprint Android users if they got anything similar, and they had not. So is anyone else with a Nexus S 4G getting weird texts like this?

Sounds like sprint spam. That's weird that your phone is displaying code. I'd just ignore it.

I just received this today also. Messages exactly same as the OP and on the same phone and carrier ...
Not sure what it is all about either .. any detailed answers?

the message is how sprint handles visual voice mail. did you happen to have a phone before that had visual voice mail and never reset your voice mail settings when you got your nexus?

Joeykrim, big fan.
Try going to messaging app and do the following: send a text to 9999 and as the message type: Block 9016. You will get a text confirming blockage of that #

Had an Evo for 29 days, but I'm brand new to Sprint beyond that. I never set up any voicemail beyond Google Voice though.
Haven't had another instance of these texts yet though, so I'm just assuming a glitch on Sprint's side.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G "Lore" using XDA Premium App

multiple 9016 text messages.
I think i have found a fix for this annoying problem.
Ive found that it happens when u install some other text message app to handle your text messages instead of the stock messaging system.
I believe the 9016 messages are suppose to be hidden or silent messages and not actually get displayed, but when you set another program to handle all the messages, it doesnt know its not suppose to display it.
*So the FIX that i found that works is to,
tell the new text message program to Not Disable other message notifications. Meaning, remove the check mark associated with that option.

Hangouts does not support Short Codes

I was stunned to discover this morning that the DEFAULT messaging app cannot send SMS to Short Codes. I'd have to say I'm more than a little shocked that our texting app is missing core functionality.
I've already submitted a topic on Google's Product forum.

I just realized this myself and probably looked ridiculous standing in front of a short code and not being able to figure it out...

are you sure it's hangout's problem? what's your carrier?
I can send short code without problem.

Well i feel dumb... you just need to scroll past all the G+ bs and contacts to get to the send sms option... it shouldnt be all the way at the bottom but whatever...

I have no problems sending to and receiving from short codes using Hangouts. Don't know why anyone else would have this problem. The first time I received one, it prompted to possibly incur charged from my Service Provider, but past that it acts just fine.

On T-Mobile I got that same popup, and it says that the messages have been sent, but I do not receive any response back from the short code. Like the local radio station here is 48258. Usually you get a auto response saying thank you for txting blah blah blah. With hangouts I do not get that response.

Yeah, see - I don't get that problem. I can properly respond and receive a response back and so on. I'm on AT&T - don't see why that would be carrier specific.

Not sure, i have been much to lazy to download a 3rd party sms app to test it to see if its actually hangouts or carrier having issues. Might give it a try tonight and report back.

I always stored those few short codes like #225# or #932# in the Phonebook & dial from there. It's a Pop-up showing the info onscreen but not saved to as incoming SMS, unlike traditional non-smart phone like the old LG or Sony. Hangout is on the MMS path and that should explain the reasons for not being able to use it.

I just did a test from couple different SMS apps and none of them get a reply from 5 digit numbers. Also my google voice number is not getting a response, so I have no idea if it is working or not.

Texts displayed in contacts

Hey guys. This is by far the least technical issue I've had to look for assistance with so bear with me. I've recently noticed that with my galaxy s6 (and possibly my old s4 but it was rooted and modded so I never really checked) when I go to an individual contact in my contacts list it not only shows their picture and info but also a complete text message history for that person. In the name of privacy for privacy's sake I don't really like there being any number of places outside my texting app where my text messages are also visible. I have not found any settings that allow me to prevent this from happening and I'm wondering if any of you can help.
Thanks.

Good call. Just noticed that, thanks. Not an issue for me, but I can see how it may be to others.

Yep. It bothers me that it exists there and I'd have not known except that I realized I had a few contacts with 3-4 old numbers attached to them. I see no reason why my contacts needs to be accessing the content of my texting app. Hoping someone can figure something out here. I did notice that if I delete the messages in my text app they also delete from that contact's history as well but I should not have to delete texts just to prevent my contact list from accessing them. This needs to be fixable or at least something you can toggle.

I don't use sms messages. The only one I saw that had messages listed in their listing was my mother-in-law who is one of the few people I text to. I use hangouts for most everyone else but don't text that often..

Thank you for pointing this out. Hope there is a fix.

In call settings there is an option to enable or disable "Show Caller Information", which is supposed to be the communication history. I tried disabling it to see if it would stop showing texts in the contact list, but it did not. It may prevent future messages from showing, but I won't know until I get another text.

SMS App and/or Settings that work with Sprint Visual Voicemail

I am now running CM12.1 on my Photon Q. I successfully installed and provisioned Sprint-VVM-M.apk (version T.7.0.0.16)
When I get a Voicmail, an SMS message shows up in my messaging app from (650)603-0000. Here is an example of one I dialed in from google voice on my laptop:
[email protected] has sent you a Sprint Voice Message. To listen call 650-603-0000 or click http://smsvoice.sprint.com/iv.do?d5ee6b9fbb3

Calling 6506030000 results in a busy signal. Clicking on the link, opens Firefox at the mentioned URL. There is a box with a play icon. When I click it, the page refreshes, but I hear nothing in my phone. There is a SmithMicro Software logo and copyright message at the bottom of the screen.
The message does not show up in the VVM inbox. I found this thread on the Sprint community forums regarding this issue.

... you are using a third party text messaging program which is intercepting the notification to the Voicemail app before it can hide it ...
If you are using a third party text messaging app (GoSMS, ChompSMS, etc), depending on the application many of them will have an option that needs to be adjusted to correct this. If you are using one, let me know and I can see if I can locate that setting for you. Alternatively, if you do search on here or Google, you can likely find someone with the same app and same issue and how they fixed it.

Evidently these messages are supposed to be handed off from the SMS app to the Visual Voicemail app. The original poster was using GoSMS. They could not figure out how to change the settings mentioned above; so, he opted to switch to Google Voice.
I had been using SMS + MMS Messages from SMS & Messages Studios from the play store. I uninstalled it and am now using the default messaging app in CM 12.1.
Does anyone have a clue what settings JPSquared might have been referring to?
Will the default SMS in CM 12.1 let me change that?
If not is anyone using an sms app that successfully hands off messages from 650-603-0000 to the VVM app? Could you tell me the SMS app and version and the VVM app version you are using that work together?
Postscript notes & thoughts:
In the default SMS app, I can set a specific ringtone for the 6506030000 conversation
... but, if I delete the conversation rather than individual notifications in it, it reverts to default for the next message
In my SMS, I also see messages from 9016. These appear to be meant to turn on / off the message waiting indicator. I assume these should also be passed to the VVM app. VVM should set my light to blue if this works, but are no such luck.
When I have a voicemail waiting, I get a message to 9016 with "MWI Notif turnOn" in it. When the voicemail box is empty, I get one to 9016 that says "MWI Notif turnOff".

Any Smart SMS App That Could Change the LED Color?

I could live without the Visual Voicemail app downloading my voicemail at all, if I could find a way to get my messaging app to set my phone's LED to a specific color based on those messages to 9016!
Anyone know of one that can?

Could it be MIUI whatever that is??
possible clue from this thread
saint01 said:
Yes actually I figured it out. The epic, and I'm told sprint, do not support MIUI which was enabled by handcent when I flipped a setting. Unfortunately turning it back off and uninstalling handcent did nothing.
What you have to do is download the sprint voicemail apk and overwrite the existing app. This fixes it.
I must have tried a couple hundred possible solutions with no luck before I finally tried this. Good luck

gosms may work
thread
It turns out GoSMS was the culprit that was breaking my Visual Voicemail and causing me to receive the 9016 voicemail texts.
Apparently if you go into settings for GOSMS>>then Advanced>>the Receive Settings, there is an option for "Disable other Message notification".
With that option checked, it will actually disable all other SMS services and that will mess up the visual voicemail because I guess that receives a form of text message that tells it you have a voicemail and to go and get it.
Once I unchecked this option, and rebooted my phone, I began to get all my missing voicemails. So for anyone else who is having this issue, I hope this clarifies.

The current version of Go SMS Pro that installs is 7.10
The menu has changed (of course, lol)
I do not see ""Disable other Message notification"" under any of the settings menu items...
rebooting erasing vvm data
re-provisioning
no message from 9016! hmm. darn i have to go to work more later!

system permissions?
I have a theory of why this is happening
sms messages are stored in system partition -- need higher privileges to read
vvm gets installed to data partition

Probably Have to Change Phone Company
I could write a program in Python to turn the light on when a text message is received, but C, Java, etc. are out of my league.
To replace voice mail with Google Voice, your carrier must support Conditional Call Forwarding. Red Pocket -- my current carrier does not. Yesterday, I contacted many of the Sprint mvno's listed here before I found one that supports that feature.
I am looking at changing to Pix Mobile, because they do support it. Very frustrating to have to change carriers when there is such a simple work-around to make the Message Waiting Indicator light tell you that you have a voicemail.
