Text messaging problem

Hey guys. Im having some trouble with my text messaging. When ever i receive messages, it is showing that i received them 4 hours ago. So all my received messages are going to the top and messing up my chats. Does any one know how to fix this?

I'm using cognition 2.2.beta.9.1.3. It's thebrogers build if that matters.

Best bet usa to flash back to Cognition and see if the issue goes away.

Hey...just got the Captivate yesterday and had the same problem. Are you on Rogers (or another provider besides AT&T)? This is more likely a network problem. Download the "SMS Time Fix" app. It will fix the problem.

Yes its a rogers phone and I'm using it with fido. Thanks that fixed the problem.

Can't receive phone calls

Last night I flashed paragon RC6 and it seems to be a really sweet rom but now I can't receive incoming phone calls I can make them though when I get a call it starts to ring then I lose all bars. Im still kind of new at this so I am not sure if I should just reflash the rom or if there was a easy fix for this some help with this would be great. thanks

Sounds like a bad flash. Did you flash from stock or you flash over the top of a different rom? I would reflash do not restore system data.

Guess I will just reflash it when I get home 2 nite And keep my fingers crossed that it doesn't happen again because I really like this rom

Don't restore system settings if you did previously. That seems to be a common culprit for the problem.

Anybody else's g2x refuse to hang up phone calls?

My phone has been ok compared to some of the reports I've seen, but I've been having issue ending calls. On about 50% of my calls, when I press the end button, nothing happens. I have to wait til the other person hangs up, or I kill all tasks with a task manager. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Yup this happens with the majority of my calls as well.

What ROM are you guys running?
That doesn't happen to me but what does happens is when I want to listen to my voice mail and I enter my pin number it says its not valid even though that I carefully enter the numbers.

I'm running the rooted stock rom.

That has happened to me only once. I wrote it off as yet another example of the creeping memory corruption that afflicts this phone after it has been up for day or two. (I am running the stock ROM, unrooted.)

Running Faux's AOSP Nexus Rom and yes it happens to me as well, has happened on other ROM's as well though..

Happens to me many times, my phone is running on EB Froyo 1.0.4

I'm rooted running stock

It happens to me right after I reboot too. So that doesn't fix it.

Has been happening to me alot lately
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App

Never had a issue with that... :/

I get that as well.

Has only happened on rooted stock.

That's interesting. I'm on rooted stock as well.

Happens to me every day and I'm not rooted.

Well, just like everything else, we're going to have to wait and hope that gingerbread fixes it.

Whenever it gets here

Wow this totally happens to me ...on every call!
I didn't think it was worth making a thread about it but now that I know its not just me... it seems every time I have to hit the end call/ stop button several times before it hangs up. Wasn't a deal breaker for me but it is annoying. I am running stock rom and rooted
"If Satan lived in heaven he'd be me... "

So I noticed that when you end a call there is a small zooming out animation. I was curious if the animation could be locking up the call. I turned off all animations and I haven't had a call hang in a couple of days. I encourage anyone who is having this issue to try it.

MMS picture message issue... "Send Failed"

If you can't send pictures in MMS try this...
Send your self a text with a picture attached... If your number is 2223334444, then place a 1 in front if it like this... 12223334444 and see if that will go through.
If the message goes through, try sending a picture to someone without using the "1" in front now and you should be good to go.

Another problem is if you have dashes or periods between the numbers. Like 555-555-5555 or 555.555.5555. Remove those and try it if the above suggestion doesn't work.

Or just do both and you should be good to go. Although I thought those problems were only on kb5 and possibly kc1

Question about messaging

Does anyone have any insight as to why the stock messaging app would have me download just a regular text message? Doesn't happen every time but enough to get on your nerves.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA

Never had that happen unless it was a mms (picture)

One thing that did come to mind is it seems to happen when someone sends me a text from an iPhone. Could it be that the Android knows it's superior and rejects the text from the inferior iPhone?

+1000000 hahahaha
mine does that but when its a txt over 160 char long
then it will promp me to DL and comes out like a regular txt
other txts less then 160 char are fine tho

I've never had that happen but if its a problem you can try go SMS, chomp, or handcent.

Check with them if they are using iMessage or something like that. I remember hearing about a texting app on iPhones that uses data and allows iPhone users to text for free.
