[Q] Messaging Question (Stock app) - General Questions and Answers

I'm on a stock Thunderbolt (no root/no flash) using the stock messaging app. When I reboot my phone, any texts that failed to be delivered automatically send. I want to stop this from happening. I looked through the messaging settings and didn't see anything, any ideas?
I am running 2.3.4

I don't believe there is a setting for that. It would only make sense that if it failed to send, you probably want it to try again after a reboot, but one way of stopping it would be to delete the message right after rebooting or before rebooting. I just dont think it is a setting. Sorry.

[Problem] Bug With Every Rom I Try

Hello,
I have tried attn1's ROMS as well as Android Revolution 4G (currently using), and I have the same problem every time.
After an hour or so after a fresh reboot, my text messages stop notifying me about half the time. For example when I get a text message, about half the time I won't even know (no ring, no vibrate, nothing in the status bar) until I open the actual messaging application and it'll say I have a new message. Am I the only one experiencing this?
I have tried wiping the phone, clearing data, wiping partitions, clearing the Davlik (sp?) cache. Any help would be appreciated.
Have you tried a 3rd party messaging app? I use Handcent and it's notifications work wonderfully for me. I've seen a few other posts about weird things with their notifications in the stock messaging app, and it appears to be something devs are aware of just waiting for what they need to fix.

Sidekick unknown error on lockscreen

On the lockscreen, on the second slide down thing there is an ! with unknown beside it. After you unlock the phone you can't find that notification any where!
Already checked the notification bar and went and cleared the ram. Still the same. Does anyone know what it is trying to tell me or how to clear it?
I have factory reset the phone one time and it went away, but then came back in a day.
That's where the date goes. I see "unknown" there occasionally. I assume that this is because the phone hasn't gotten the date from the cell network yet, but still has the time cached internally. For me, it generally goes away after a bit.
The one time it didn't go away fairly quickly was when I had Handcent SMS installed and had configured my phone to use it and it's notifications, generally disabling the stock Messaging app and it's notifications. It stayed "unknown" while I had Handcent installed. When I removed Handcent and turned the stock SMS app back on it went back to showing the date.
I didn't test this rigorously, and have no idea if it's causal or just a coincidence. Has anyone else observed behavior like this?
thanks
I'm sure that it's handcent then, I haven't uninstalled it yet. But I bet that's it.
Thanks for the reply. Contacted handcent support about the bug.
I don't think its a handcent issue. I've had the same problem. The only way I got it to go away was to open the stock messaging app and view my last conversation. Then its off the lock screen. Try that. If it works for you...its an issue with stock software. I've had a fewb problems with the stock app. Wish I could just remove it lol

Found it
It seems if you turn off notifications in the Stock messaging app it gets cranky.
I turned them back on and it shows the time on the bottom lock screen.
I then went back and turned them back off and the time stayed, we'll see how long.
This is beyond annoying.
Screenshot, please?
Happns 2 me too glad 2 know I am not alone...

i think that this is a common thing, whenever i dont check my text msg or randomly click the power button, i would see the "!" at the bottom screen..dont know why
I had this problem too on my Sidekick 4G. I am using Handcent but I don't know if that's the cause for me.
What I did to solve this problem: I went into the stock messaging app, into the menu, where I chose "Browser Message". (This menu option is not always present, but apparently shows up when you get a message from your cell carrier.) There was one message listed, and I deleted it. After that, my lock screen displayed the date again.
When you get mms messages, it goes to the stock messaging app as well, so just go in the stock messaging app and view it in there and it will go away. Or, before your SD card loads, messages will go straight to the stock messaging app. Just view all your threads in there, click each one, and the unknown will go away.

[Q] Problem with sms app replacements

I keep trying new sms replacement apps and i really liked gosms and handcent but i have a glitch with them that i cant seem to fix
whenever i open the app i get a notification for a message that ive gotten months ago and already deleted long ago, when i swipe it away or click on it it goes away then comes back again as soon as i open up gosms or handcent but i never get this notification in my stock text app, and i can never get it to stop appearing in any other text app, ive tried as many different settings as i can in the new apps, and tried erasing all my messages, cleared my stock sms app and turned of stock notifications but still getting the notification returning, any ideas?
I have the same problem on my Nexus with ICS 4.0.4
Maybe its just a problem for nexus s w 4.0.4 cause ive tried them before when i had gingerbread and 4.0.3 and had no problems
I also had that problem.
Perhaps clear data on the stock messaging app? Maybe even delete the db associated with it? I would search up on that though as I'm just assuming it will automatically recreate it. I'm also not sure of the name of the file.

stock messaging app problem - my threads stopped updating

Has anyone had this happen? I have a stock HTC One X that I have rooted. Everything was fine, but now, starting today, when I create a text message, I click send, and it reloads the thread, but my text does not show up - it's just the same last text showing from before the problem started. When people send me texts, I do not see them, but I do get the notification. I rebooted the phone, and cleared the app cache to no avail.
I tried Handcent, and it works just fine. However, handcent has that funky menu bar at the bottom that I hate, and I get a notification from both Handcent and from the stock messaging app, which is annoying.
Any ideas on how to fix this are much appreciated.
Once I hit about 6000 messages I wasn't able to even load threads. I'm just using GO SMS Pro until there's a stable CM10 release for this phone.
Try going into setting and clearing the apps cache then reboot.
Thank you for the replies - I already cleared the cache. I ended up "fixing it", or rather, the problem went away, when I deleted the threads from my best friend and wife. The only thing I can think of is that maybe there is a thread cap, and I message them a lot? Iunno, but it's working now.

Stock Messaging App Issue

I am running Rooted Stock. Everytime I restart my phone the Stock Messaging App pops up a notification at boot. It says that I have 5300 messages.
When I open it, I see a bunch of threads even though I have deleted them in my other Messaging app. When I try to delete them in the Stock Messaging App it freezes and then force closes. If I open the Stock Messaging App from the app menu there are no threads and when I go into the settings to turn off notifications, the Stock Messaging App freezes and force closes. I have tried going into the app manager and clearing cache and clearing data with no change .
Outside of this I have no problems and I just cant seem to figure this out. I am trying to avoid wiping the phone for what seems like a simple issue. Thank you for any help you can provide.
