Group SMS / Group Text Message Issue - General Questions and Answers

Hello all,
I recently switched from Sprint to T-Mobile and ported over my old number. I now have an unusual issue where I am included in the group text as a clone. IE -- when I reply back to the group, I reply back to all group members which also includes myself so I will send/receive a text message from myself.
When looking at the people in the group, I show up in there as my own phone number.
Any help on how to remedy this would be appreciated!
TIA
Edit to give more phone information:
I had a Galaxy S4 with Sprint and received a brand new S5 with T-Mobile
Model SM-G900T
Android v 4.4.2

First Don't bumb your threads so much.. Bad way to get a response, One you will likely not like
Secondly If you need help post AS MUCH INFO as you can
Phone Model, OS Version, Carrier, App Your Using (if applicable)
Also did you Keep the same phone from sprint to use on T-Mobile ?
I have T-Mobile and I've yet to have this problem and I use group text'ing occasional.
Start By Giving that info and we can go from there.

I don't agree about the bumping part, especially on a site with heavy traffic like this in such a general forum. This thread was made one week ago, not yesterday. Anyway, updated my OP with more information.

anyone? =)

I'm sure someone out there has some answers. Should I be moving this somewhere else for a different exposure?

[Q] Call Logs Display

Guys, a little help needed. I am totally frustrated by how the call logs are displayed on the Infuse. The call logs show the name of the person and below it shows the phone number of the person instead of whether the call was made/from the persons cell/home/office etc. So if a person on my contact list has multiple phones (cell, home etc), how do I figure where they called from.
Ideal setup would be:
John Doe
Mobile
Rather than:
John Doe
123-456-7890
Doesn't this bother anyone? Any way to display this information?
Searched the forums but no dice. Sorry if answered already someplace.
Thanks a bunch.
First off this is posted in the wrong section. This is not a dev question
However, Call log display bugs me too. I text as often as possible to avoid it. Or just wait for someone to call me

Apologies if posted in the wrong forum. The only reason I posted this here was that this does not seem to be stock Infuse functionality and only a developer could "maybe" change this in a ROM release so it is a bit more user friendly.

[Q] Sidekick LX 2009

HI
I have an Unlocked Sidekick LX 2009 which I bought it off e-bay and all the regular phone features like Calling, Texting, GPRS etc., seem to be working fine (even in India )
The problem that i have is with the downloading of games. I am able to download music files(mp3) and video files(mp4 and 3gp) but when it comes to any other file type like jar files it(opera mini the only browser available on the phone) throws an error "The Download is not Supported". My first guess was that the browser was the cause for the problem but found out that the issues is that the OS allows files to be downloaded only through the DOWNLOAD CATLOG(this feature is not available on my device as the unlocked version of the LX 2009 these days don't come with it)
My question is,
Is there a way that i can download and have applications installed on my device, if yes how?
or
Is there a way that i can remove the current OS(guess its based on NETBSD as per Wikipedia) and have Android installed
PS: If anyone wants any more information about the device please PM me or mail me @ [email protected]
Maybe running Danger SDK would enable the phone to be in some kind of developer mode. Good luck finding USB drivers in the post XP era since I am having a difficult time trying to enable USB mode in Windows 7.
As for operating system, I do recall Cincinnati Bell released a rebadge of the phone called the "Sharp Jump" and the newer operating system is not tied to Danger's Services via the old Tmobile portal. Maybe if some brave soul dumps the firmware of the PV300g (Sharp Jump) and finds a way to flash the PV-300 phones (the T-Mobile Sidekick LX 2009).

Is there a rule stating I can't gather people to start a developer group? If so, I humbly apologize. I don't wanna step on anyone's toes. I just don't appreciate the way your words are kind of worded. Seems very demanding and a bit hostile. If it's that serious, you could very much private message me in regards about it in the first place, and I kindly would've obliged dialog about my posts.

Yes, you can, my point is, anyone coming here and viewing this thread when they are searching for answers related to the subject matter of this thread will not get any kind of answers in this thread if the discussion/solution is held elsewhere.
If you aren't trying to solve a problem in this thread, then don't worry about it, discuss it wherever you choose.

Test message problem

So I am running paranoid 2.1 sept 6th.
I keep getting text messages from people and they say
Message size (some number)
expires 5 days
downloading...
However it never downloads, and I cant figure out who to read these messages.
Thank you for the help

Why wouldn't you post this IN the paranoid android thread??? It sounds like a ROM issue and you have plenty of posts to post in the dev forum.....

Well I was not sure the reason was paranoid rom. Since this was a question that I was looking for an answer I thought the Q and A session made sense. Also I looked over all 373 posts in that thread before I posted here, but did not see a solution to my problem.

Still having this issue. Also When I get a long text message it gets broken up but is out of order. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you
Same here, every time I get a 3 or 4 page text it breaks it up but it doesn't do it correctly nor does it put it back together right. I have noticed it is mainly when a friend on AT&T send me long texts. When someone in Verizon does it will send the text 2 it more times. Anybody got any ideas at all? Would switching another ROM or anything help any at all? I figure it's a carrier issue but if it Kant I would be super happy to fix this. It also used to happen on my RAZR too.

[Q] ChatSIM, new WhatSIM questions

Hello xda,
recently i saw the whatsim upgraded to chatsim, allowing more apps to take place, and i was wondreing some things:
They give you a phone number?
I saw they dont let you send SMS but, recibe o send calls?
Somebody tested the "free internet access" via any VPN service and see if works?
Is there any throttle or they cut all the access when you run out of credits?
I think by now i will resolve my questions, and for sure any other member could have the same questions or post any new question here.
Thanks to all for reading or anwering.
EDIT: Wrong secction, it would be nice if this is moved to the Q&A section, thanks

Hi, I bought chatsim couple of weeks ago and is successfully activated. Today I was in overseas and wanted to use it, but I couldn't do it.
I was looking on the internet and found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zG8KKaH9B8 in the minute 6:06 they talk about add another user (WITH YOUR CHATSIM PHONE NUMBER) in order to use chatsim. Here is my question:
I have a dualsim phone (Letv X800) and have on mu dutch number whatsapp running. In order to use chatsim (phone number +44number) I need to create/activate it within whatsapp, right? Do you have any idea how to do it without using the method mentioned on the video?
Thanx

[Completed] About Posting Requirement and Help for Rooting MB525

Hi!
I am wondering if I need to fulfill the 10 post requirement for the forum in order to be able to see links for downloads to help me with rooting my phone? I found a post online directing me to a thread here. I am a bit handicapped in that we have no ISP available at my home so I am only able to sporadically be online when I can get to WiFi so I may not see a reply for a bit, but I am hoping someone can tell me the best way to get to the point where I can root my phone. I have a Motorola MB525 with 2.2.2. Only a few things that I would like for functionality that sent me looking for ways to root my system, but mostly because I hate sending and receiving texts and not being able to see the emojis! and sometimes missing the tone of the message with mystery emojis! :silly:
Thank you in advance for your time and reply,
Kristie
