Messenger Profile Pic - T-Mobile LG G2x

I've been using Handcent ever since I updated to GB. I just went to stock messenger and realized that my profile pic is gone. Isn't my pic from my google account supposed to show up in that spot? Any tips on resolving this issue?

It might be a good idea to just reupload it again. I've always used handcent so I don't even remember what stock looks like, lol.

I have this problem too. It used to show on the stock 2.3.3 but went away after I flashed EB 2.3.5. I tried adding myself to the contacts list and putting a picture and it still doesn't show. I did notice though when I go to about phone it doesn't list my phone number any more so maybe it doesn't recognize it as my phone and it has something to do with it

ya you just need to go to calls settings and put your number in.

yup that fixed the issue. Thanks! for me it was under call settings> additional settings > my phone number on EB 2.3.5 rom

Unknown Text Message Received

I was wondering if anyone has this happening to them.
For the past 2 months I have been receiving unusual text messages whenever I go into my contact list. They come in pairs. First one says it's from 900-080-001087 second one is from 900-080-001089. Both messages contain the following text:
"//MIM:android:25110SY 52 Please Log in again."
The only difference is the "25110SY 52" portion (the "25" and "52" portions are different between the threads). And if you look at each of the messages' threads, the "25" portion increases sequentially with each message.
I went to the "accounts" section in the phone's settings but everything shows that I am still logged in with no problems or errors.
Could this have anything to do with Google's new 2-step increased security measures? I have been using them since they first came out. If so, how can I stop this from happening?
Sent from my Samsung Droid Charge (SCH-I510) with the EE4 build using the XDA App, unrooted, and the GO Launcher.
oh yeah... I forgot... I have also been receiving blank text messages from "Unknown" user for the same amount of time as the other weird messages. . Could this be related to those others? And yes... I did not install any new apps before this started happening. So I am at a loss as to finding a solution to this very annoying problem. Any ideas?

Never experienced this, but I was receiving messages from "Oz mail" whatever that is. They were really long, and they wanted me to reply to them. But by replying it would charge you for an international text.
It sounds like the messages i got when my backup assistant wasn't setup right.
You might want to check out those settings.

[Q] Emancipation Questions

Just did a complete wipe and installed the latest Emancipation release this morning.
When my text messages are a certain length, the sms message fails to send.
When I try to download dialers or themes using the OTA, the downloads are unsuccessful.
Did the lock screen option menu get moved somewhere else from the first release because I dont see it.
Im just wondering if I need to add another APN?
Thanks for the input!

hmmm... i've been cruising the Eman thread all day and no one else seems to have these issues. My first guess would be possible bad download and/or flash. Did u try to flash again?

What length SMS seems to cause an issue? I have not seen any issues with SMS so far, but granted my messages are generally pretty short anyway.
When you try and download the dialers or themes are you using the stock browser? I think there is a known issue with that. Nun had said "Q. I try to download from the ota and I always get "download unsucessful. How do I fix this?
A. Many have stated that trying a browser other than stock will help...Opera, Dolphin, etc should work. If you prefer to use stock...try this: Download Astro File Explorer, open preferences, and scroll to the bottom and select "enable browser downloads"...then ownload like a good boy should!"
I followed his suggestion and had no more troubles trying to download the OTA stuff.
Lock screen stuff is in display settings. Don't remember where it was on the previous build.
Thank you for the info, you pretty much answered all my questions. I had a brain fart on the lock screen- it was under display. I thought it was in the Emancipation OTA previously.
As far as the text messaging, I cant put a finger on the length because sometimes it works... Not sure whats up with that. But I do know that usually long texts do fail and they will go through if i try to resend them a few times...
What browser do you recommend? Is there an agreed upon one that everyone uses?
when I download i use dolphin mini browser...-
i like opera but it doesnt let me download...
about your sms, you check the messages/setting /message center... sometimes its reset when changing roms..
I just use the stock browser. I loaded the Astro File Explorer and everything worked fine.
I know there are better browsers out there but the audio book service I use only works the stock browser and Firefox. I have tried it with Firefox, but it just works better with the stock browser. My commute is about 80 minutes each way; so I would go crazy without my audio books.
I have always used the app "Download All Files" its a super light app that works with all files in any app or browser and then I can just use the stock browser

I'm having a problem sending and recieving MMS, which I had once before ever flashing my infuse. APN settings got changed somehow (probably me). Reset the APN and it was fixed. Problem crept again after flashing Emancipation. Under the available APN types the list I'm given only has:
Internet+MMS
Internet
MMS
I think I'm needing an "supl" option. Am I missing that due to a bad flash and need to redo it. Or is it simply not available o Emanc and need to try a ROM i can edit the APN by typing like CM7?
Thanks

Its official, both my Infuse and my wifes cannot send long text messages. We have to cut them in half for whatever reason. Any ideas?
Also my data is ridiculously slow. Youtube videos are taking upwards of an hour to load on both phones too. This wasnt a problem on Zeus and I was wondering if there are something I should look into? Thanks!
I have the same issue also can't send/receive pics to my ended phone started when I flashed this ROM. Worked great in last.

Emancipation OTA Problem
Firstly I'd like to thank everyone for the awesome community and work that goes on here at XDA. I've been reading through all the forums the last several weeks and learned so much about my new phone (Samsung Infuse 4G). Through all the tutorials, Q&As etc. I have successfully flashed my firmware three different times. Started out with Zeus v6, Aeon and now I'm finally settled on Emancipation1 with the Dark Blue theme. I really like this ROM.
Now my problem/question. For the ROM flash and Dark Blue theme flash I just downloaded the files to my PC and moved them over to the phone. Everything at that point was fine. Everything on my phone works great except for the Emancipation OTA. It worked the first time immediately after the flash (just checking it out), however now whenever I try to use the Emanicaption OTA I get an error on my phone screen that says "Sorry - The application Settings (process.com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. - Force close)
I've tried with wi-fi enabled and disabled. My stock browser works fine and I went ahead and installed Astro File Manager Explorer. I also booted the phone into Recovery Mode and wiped the cache and Davlik cache.
Any ideas on what might be wrong or causing my inability to use the Emancipation OTA? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Sorry, the only known solutions when that consistently pops up is a reflash. Something did not take right or is interferring with that working properly. Back it up and reflash.
Thanks. Was hoping you weren't going to say that though
One more simple ?
Does anyone know if the themes and other content available through the EmancipationOTA is available for direct download (say from the server to a PC so it can then be moved to the phone the old fashioned way?)
Nope. All themes go though the OTA.

Unable to send MMS messages

Got this phone a week ago and I've sent a bunch of pictures to people through MMS. I've just now learned that none of those pictures were ever received. I don't get any sort of error message; it seems to send just fine. But when I ask if they received the pics, they always say no.
And no, this isn't the problem with 8MP pictures taken with the camera that won't compress properly with the stock Messaging app. This includes smaller pictures about 500KB in size. I have also tried alternative apps such as GO SMS Pro with no success.
I have another issue with receiving MMS messages. I do receive pictures, but they only open as a weird 5-second slideshow as if it's a video file. The only way to view the full size is to download the file and then go to the Gallery app.
Any ideas?
I have an issue with ppl receiving my mms. My issue is that they get the pic like 24-36 hours later

I've had similar issues too, particularly with sending MMS to my friends with iPhones. I've sent group messages which didn't deliver at all, and I've sent pictures which took hours upon hours to send, but when I sent my brother a picture on his old flip phone, he got it within seconds.
strange... I never had any issue.
Actually, I just tried doing some debugging a few hours ago sending MMS to my family, and I even tried using 3rd party messaging software, but still no luck. They just don't want to send.

I've never had any problem either.
I know this isn't helpful (& I hate when other people respond like this) but maybe something in the way my phone is setup is working a little differently.
I got my phone from a pre-order & on the very first boot I rooted it etc. When the root66 ROM was released, I completely wiped everything & flashed the ROM fresh.
I use Handcent, but the stock MMS/SMS app works fine also (I just tried it). Other than flashing that ROM, all I have done is remove or freeze all the Verizon bloatware & everything works perfectly (& it's fast as hell also)
I've been having this issue ever since I bought it, including stock and root66 roms. I've tried using the stock messenger, Go SMS, and also the closest thing to the AOSP messenger I could find on the market, all with the same problem.
That message I sent out to my family when trying to debug it, they finally got it... around 12 hours later.
I just tried it again tonight, and it seems to be working fine, so it seems to be an intermittent issue. I've sent out 3 or 4 that took ours, and I've sent 2 or 3 that delivered immediately. And as far as when I was testing, same exact picture, same exact text, one took 12 hours, the other instant. It couldn't possibly be an issue with coverage, I've got 4G and almost full bars everywhere, plus I'm connected to wifi.
If you've got any clue as to what setting we may have accidentally changed, please do share because I haven't a clue (and tbh, there's not a lot to customize in the stock app)
Boy that really is strange, I haven't had the problem myself but maybe I just haven't used MMS enough to run into it.

[Q] What could be causing MMS issues?

So, I'm running the latest CM10 nightlies on my One X.. otherwise everything else is normal I think.
My problem is that I can't send MMS messages. When I try and send a picture, it just says sending and never sends. I'm not sure if I can recieve, I haven't had the chance to ask someone to send me something. Anyway, I haven't done any heavy modding to my phone besides trying out the new camera app from 4.2. Since I couldn't view my photospheres, I flashed my rom again to get rid of the new gallery/camera apps. And some time after that, I noticed the mms problem..
I tried editing the build.prop in /system when the 4.2 camera came out, but if I'm not correct, doesn't it get overwritten when I flash again? It seems like the build.prop is back to normal.. The only thing I changed was the model name and brand to galaxy nexus/google but it changed back when I flashed.
Anybody having any MMS problems? Or does anyone know of a possible fix? I've tried earlier nightlies, but to no avail.. This sucks

are you sure you have the right APN for your telco? some have some funny settings for MMS. There are a few lists kicking around for all the major telco's, you might want to check the settings you have against those. These can be entered via
settings -> [wireless & networks] -> more -> mobile networks -> Access Point Names -> [there should be at least one configured here for mms]
Yup, incorrect APN settings is the most common reason for MMS failing.

Lollipop Caller ID Pictures on Incoming Call?

I have received a half dozen or so phone calls since I upgraded to Lollipop, and so far every call that I've had has a caller ID picture assigned in contacts, but none have shown up with a picture while the call is actually ringing my phone.
Has Google removed caller ID pictures on incoming calls, or is there something else going on here?
Have other people seen this happen?

Alright, at least I'm not alone.
Figures there would never be a problem with something so basic before, but Lolliflop can't seem to manage it.
HI, just noticed that too.
I played with stock Phone app settings and it seems to fix it for me.
Tell me if it helped.

Only 2 other people?
How are more people not complaining about this?
I have the same issue. Since the update on my nex 4, this issue has been there. When i call, the photo shows but incoming calls dont show the photo. Its annoying. I hope there is a fix soon.
Sorry to post on nexus 5 thread as i couldnt find it on nexus 4 forum
It seems to be only if your phone is locked (PIN, Pattern, etc), if your phone is on, and unlocked the picture shows.
Only using slide unlock.
Never an issue before.

Working fine for me, although I flashed the factory image and set my phone up from scratch
Even I flashed factory image and set up my device from scratch. But problem is there
Same thing for me. Did clean install and removed google account and back sign in again with no luck.
Have the same issue here.
Reimaging of the device didn't help.
This happening only on the locked device. While device is unlocked - picture appearing.
Using stock dialer and contacts applications.
Not yet. I've tried all kinds of things from disabling Google's Caller ID service, to setting new contact pictures for people, and I have so far been unable to make my caller ID pictures work reliably. I'll see it maybe one out of ten incoming calls. Extremely frustrating. My Moto Razr from 2004 could reliably display caller id pictures, but Lollipop seems unable to perform in the most basic of functions.
Same issue here. On factory image as well as a few different ROMs
