I am having trouble finding the info I am looking for. Probably because I dont know exactly what I want in a searchable way.
My wife does not have a cell phone .. she has been using textfree by pinger. I would like to find some kind of program that can send and receive google voice texts just like a normal cell phone on her tablet. She doesnt get her texts until she refreshes it. I want one that when a new text comes in will alert her.
Anyone know of something that will work for this? I have tried a couple without much luck.
Let me know. Thanks
And sorry if this is something I should have found easy enough. I have been looking for a couple of days.

It seems like someone elses contact list made its way in to my phone and I am not sure how. I think overnight this happened but cant be sure. I just noticed it. I dont know a single name on there so I am trying to figure this out. Anyone got any clues? I got two thoughts.. somehow facebook (or another app) put them there.. or my last phone that vanished has been reactivated and they left my email in there? If so I would love to know if there is a way to find them.
Its a LG Optimus V

That is the only apps I can think of that could possibly have something to do with it. Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks

Same issue happened with me and facebook. i just had to unsynce all via menu in facebook settings
Im pretty sure it was the other scenario... someone has my phone. Its been missing for a couple of months now and its currently powered on.. the lookout plan b app works but it seems the phone is moving and that will only send me the location for ten minutes without texting it.. it doesnt have the phone number it used to so im out of luck on that.
I rooted my phone and my wife's. She's been hiding things and deleting messages and sending off pics of herflself and deleting them. I tried using a recovery app. But is there something that I can install on her phone that's will stay hidden so I can monitor what it is she is up to? Something that will save the text logs and pictures. Or activate her front facing camera. GPS... I want to make sure I have all the evidence I would need to confront her. This happened in the past as well and I didn't have enough proof. She played it off like I was the crazy one.
I've searched but figured some experts would point me in the right direction. Hoping to save my marrage before its too late.
Thanks.
Well for finding old picrures, theres diskdigger app. Uhm... Besides that, idk

I used dr phone and it took so long and it kept showing all the current pics and not just the deleted ones . wasn't until I used discdigger that I found what I was looking for. but being the free version it didn't search for much. and hard to view everything ion the little screen, and it requires me to have her phone for long periods of time.
I know there has to be something out there I can install once and get the info sent to my phone or pc.
since I only have small windows of time to have her phone(when shes sleeping) I practice on my phone. install what apps I wanty to use and try them so I know what it is im doing when I get the chance.
a keylogger would be a start but I want to know what texts are coming in as well.
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but recently when my phone broke and I still had to text people; I went to the Verizon wireless website, under 'My Verizon' is a tab called 'Send a message', enter your wife's phone number followed by her account password, and then it should be empty if this is the first time opening this. From here you can send and receive messages. After your initial login, all messages will be stored. It shows deleted as well. Finally, if you do happen to send a text from this online, sent messages will not show on her phone. Beware as she will still receive the incoming texts.
-Hope this helped! Good luck with your searching

Hi, i have found a file called smartcall on my phone. When you click on it it goes to my Microsoft word documents. I've noticed over the last three or four weeks I've had notifications by e-mail that someone has tryed to get into my Microsoft account. I have no idea how it got on my phone or what its for?? A really strange thing happened to me on the 12th.Jan. Two friends of mine plus my dad were sent text messages of some photos of me that were taken from my CM security which takes snapshots of people trying to get into your phone/tablet etc. Well sometimes I put the code in wrong more than three times and takes a pic of me. Someone has managed to get hold of those pictures and sent them via text. Also there were a couple of map references showing where i live saying I need help!! Can anyone please tell me what's going on here. I have explained to my phone providers that it wasn't me who sent the texts. Even though it showed my mb number it wasn't me as my phone was completely broken. It's all very bizarre and scary.
I have a Google Pixel 4A 5G with CalyxOS. Also tried Graphene OS. The stock texting app in those OSes does not support group chats which I use a lot with family, so I ended up installing QKSMS as it's the only app I can find that does support group chats and that works decently.
However, randomly I will start getting old texts back, it's super annoying. It basically replays a past conversation and I just get all the same texts. At one point it got so bad I had to just switch back to my old phone because I was being bombarded with old texts. Now it happens maybe once a day, where it replays the conversation from a week ago. But it's random, sometimes it's a conversation from a day ago.
I also tried an experiment, when it started to happen I put it in airplane mode to see if it continues and it stopped, and when I took it out of airplane mode it started again. So it's like if the phone is actually queering the server to retrieve the messages again. Is there a way to make this stop? I just want to get the texts once. Or is there a way I can troubleshoot this, like some kind of logging I can check to see why it's doing this?
Also open to trying another texting app if it's related to this particular app, I just have not found any in the Fdroid store that seem to do group chats, and it's hard to test this feature without trying it and it annoys people when I do it.
Just bumping... really hoping someone can know how to make this stop.
I tried switching to Signal (still SMS/MMS since that's what everyone I know uses) and it's still doing it. So this is not an issue with the specific texting app...
I really don't know what to do anymore, this is so annoying. I may give in and go back to stock android but I really hate all the spying crap it does.
Basically what happens is I get old texts from previous conversations as if they were new. They will come in randomly but tend to follow the sequence of the conversation, so it basically replays the conversation but slowly over the day. Seems to affect group chats more. It makes following conversations very hard since they are full of old texts that are not relevant but they show up as new. Also annoying to keep getting notifications when I'm actually waiting for a text only to see that it's an old text that I got days ago.
Current phone is Google Pixel 4A with CalyxOS, but I've also tried Graphene OS and had the same issue. I've tried the stock app as well as QKSMS. I did not get the issue with Signal (using as SMS client) but they dropped support for SMS, so this started back again as soon as I switched off Signal. I even tried putting the sim card in my old phone (stock android) and it's still doing it! This part is strange to me because when this problem first surfaced, doing this did fix the problem.
How do I make this stop or begin troubleshooting this? Nobody in my contacts is having this issue so trying to convince them to switch to another messaging system is kind of futile, this is my problem. I am starting to wonder if I should just get an iphone like everyone else because it just works, but I really hate the closed nature of apple ecosystem.
I was thinking of looking into how to do app development and modify an existing open source client so that it ignores texts that have a send date older than 24h, but before I do that, is there already a text client for Android available in the F droid store or as an APK that would have such a feature?
So this is not just group chats like I thought. Starting to get old texts I got from single conversations now. Even pictures get resent. These show up as new texts, though they still have the original send date. This will at least make it easier to filter these out.
Anyone have an ideas how to make this stop? Driving me insane. I really don't want to have to write my own app.
Anyone? This problem is driving me insane. It started happening with a vengeonce again. I am being bombarded by old texts that I already got days ago. It's just playing out the entire conversation over the course of a few days. Have to put the phone in airplane mode to make it stop otherwise the phone is just lit up non stop with old texts coming in.
At very least is there some kind of logging of sorts I can enable that would help me better troubleshoot this?
Inreally dont know but i Remember this happened to me sometime ,maybe Just try a factory reset or change rom , i dont know
I tried several roms, resets etc. While it was happening I even put the sim card in another phone and it started doing it on that phone too. It's also not a carrier issue since I'm the only person having this issue. I've also tried all sorts of text apps. The only one it didn't do it with was Signal but they dropped SMS support, which really sucks.
