weird text message. helppp

i just bought my tilt, just flashed to dutty v3 room and now i get a weird text every 4 mins. the number is 111145643 and it says wvi1 1.1 1111. is there anyway i can stop that text?
thanks!
Hmm I think you should call your carrier. Unless your phone is somehow sending itself a message, the kaiser probably isn't the culprit.
did you have express mail setup? if so you have to reinstall it on the phone then log onto the express mail server and delete the connection that you made for push e-mail or turn off push, then uninstall express mail on the phone and reset. you should be OK
^^I stand corrected!
I think that is for the IM+ program that ATT provides on their roms for im. The company is called wireless village i believe. I was bugged by it for a while, well the full hour I had my device before I flashed schaps!
I use Palringo until trillian gets a clue about wireless devices. It can sync with AIM, Yahoo, MSN, Gtalk, and others.
BTW, It uses data instead of sms to send messages like the IM+ does.
i had the same question but alltheway awnsered it for me already... its kind of a side effect of flashing sometimes. it will go away on its own. i think i got it like 8 times and havent had it since.

its not necessarily a side affect of flashing, it can go away if you reinstall the app that was on the old rom that is causing it... its something that was installed on your previous rom that used silent sms to alert the program to perform a specific function. LIke PTT, expressmail, or the cing/att IM client (to tired to remember the name)... When these programs are running your phone will recieve a ghost message that is only read by the app to wake it up. Alot of these problems were seen in the hermes thread and PTT.
Nope....That is what you get when someone tries to PTT you. Without PTT you get an SMS message. The way PTT works is basically Voice MMS messaging with a trigger to open & close the voice connection (PTT Button) Those digits you see are altered SMS addresses, they are altered so that PTT can recognize them & shift it from SMS to PTT.
Agin, whenever you kill PTT, you lose the ability to decipher the modified address & hence, it's received as a MMS instead. The reason you keep getting it is because the request that was sent retries a certain number of times before failing.
why dont you ask that question in the correct thread....the one that deals with your rom??

Well, that would make Dutty's never ending post even longer. We should save that post for other problems directly regarding the rom, and comments on new updates.
Beside, I believe the problem has nothing to do with Dutty's V3, it work flawlessly for me.
I am just so tired of more or less stupid questions that constantly are repeated because newies does not take their time and READ before starting threads and asking questions. This has to stay in the DUTTY thread - my opinion.
We shouldnt end up in a new HERMES forum with all the noise and bad mouth it had last year
I do not have anything against stupid questions in general - just do some searching and reading first..
So welcome all - lets use SEARCH some more..

Wow man take a breath! Your gonna get an ulcer.
to his defense i havn't seen this question in dutty's thread at all. and i've only seen it once but not onthe kairser forums. so cut him a lil slack. plus we all learn something from it...ptt or express mail can cause this. thats sure something i didnt know. hope all is well now...enjoy your device sir.
This question was answered on the hermes forum. That is how I solved my issue. I still believe it deals with the IM app from att that uses wireless village. Ill try to find some links to help get it solved.
I couldnt find the thread in the hermes section that described the issue. It might be from OZ messanger and not IM+. It is the version that comes preinstalled from the ATT rom. It is designed to use sms to im therefore making ATT more money.
I had the same text messages when I first got the Kaiser and ran the im software. I believe my test message had a different set of numbers at the end.
Here is a link to Wireless Village. They are a group that is promoting interoperability between handsets for a variety of functions (IM included).
http://www.openmobilealliance.org/tech/affiliates/wv/wvindex.html
EDIT:
I found this article from the cingular...er...ATT forums. This is the issue I originally had and the same text from the same number. The issue below is because OZ messenger was closed and not properly exited.
http://forums.cingular.com/cng/board/message?board.id=samsung&message.id=16362
I spent all day yesterday figuring this out. I downloaded and install the .cab file to my storage card and then logged into the IM program (OZ). After signing out, it kept me logged into all 3 services (Yahoo, AIM, and MSN) and then I proceeded to receive 40+ text (SMS) messages b/c it was trying to "reach me". After sitting on the phone for about an hour and half with a great Data Service Tech Rep, we figured it out and now the IM program works just fine.

You know - Generally I don't get into these types of little spit / spat arguments - but today you have caught me at the perfect time.
Martinhdk - you are the type of person that makes dealing with the public so hard. You complain about things that aren't even worth complaining about. Sure - it was Dutty's ROM, but in essence had absolutely nothing to do with the ROM, it's probably the push to talk causing the issue. (Because I have the same issue) You had to try and prove yourself by spouting off and telling someone how to run things, when really, you were in the wrong.
Sometimes people get anxious and maybe don't do as much searching as they possibly should. Big DEAL - you are in a forum and since forums began it has been a problem. Does this require that you lay into the guy and tell him how stupid his question is? NO, it doesn't. You must be one very unhappy individual who probably lives a very lonely life - do us all a favor, in the future; keep your comments to yourself and let the moderators do their job.
I apologize to XDA - I know this thread / forum is not used for this. I just feel that sometimes these guys who insult someone younger / or maybe just not as experienced have a tendency to scare these guys away and I don't feel that is right.
i had the same exprience , its not the problem with your carrier , its the ATT IM+ app , if you exit the app w/o logging out of messenger app you keep getting this wierd msg , i tried unintsallng the app but no luck , finally i relashed a new rom and the error went away.
SOLUTION
What you do is you sign in to AIM at a desktop computer, the screenname you signed in on your phone. than a message will pop up saying you are signed in at two places and if you reply to that window with "1" it will sign you out at the other location, your phone. that should stop the messages.
the AIM service on your phone used txt msgs and when you close the program without first signing out. it usually causes that problem.
Stealth message?
I've heard of this so called "stealth" text message used by the carriers to send commands to the phone. My next question is - is it possible to send one of these so called "Stealth" messages from a phone to anther phone - with the proper instructions encoded in the text msg to automatically appear either on the users screen or in their inbox? I have heard this is possible but am very interested if someone could provide me a little more insight on it....
It's possible, it's been done. Would you like to know how? How do you want to send the malicious code? BT? WIFI? MMS? Maybe I can get you my bank account number & ssn while I'm at it?
There are other forums for that type of stuff, some proggies to do this are actually security auditing tools. Most all means though require the user to acknowledge receipt of whatever you send & then require them to execute it. However, I sincerely doubt that anyone here is going to give you any means to do something that may harm someone's device. Sure, you just want to play a prank, but how about the guy you then teach it to?

Need custom program for BlueAlert Bracelet.

Alright, so I got a bluealert bracelet as an early christmas gift. It vibrates if I get an incoming call, or if my phone goes out of range of the bracelet. I love it thus far since sometimes I will miss a call because my phone is in a position I can't feel it vibrate.
My only problem is that is doesn't vibrate if I get an SMS or an email. Ideally it would vibrate once for a sms or an email, and keep vibrating for a phone call.
My question is how so I get the thing to vibrate for those as well? The phone views it as a headset via the bluetooth manager.
If someone can make up a little app to do this, I would be willing to paypal them $40. Nothing pretty, just something that tells the bluetooth to vibrate X number of times if a sms or email is received, and leave the incoming call functionality untouched.
Thanks!
vibrate
Which phone do you have?
A titan with DCD's latest rom on it.
I doubt $10 will cover the cost to fix your issue.
Problem:
The bracelet receives "Incoming call" alert and vibrates on that.
The phone thinks it's a headset so you can only send it headset actions.
Let's assume it's as dumb as they get and simply vibrates when there's an auto channel open to the bracelet. Then what you need is for something to momentarily open the audio gateway to the headset when you receive a new message.
If you simply wanted vibrate on messages then I say look at Jetware's solution to manage voice notifications to bluetooth headsets.
Now if it's smarter and actually knows that it's an incomng call then the problem gets larger.
alright, I installed jetware's software.
When a message is received the green light on the bracelet flashes for longer than usual, but it does not vibrate.
This is with sms and email.

Could you post the cab for the jetware notifier?
This way people can actually analyse the notifier and perhaps patch it or modify it.
Here it is.
Your problem here is that there isn't a "vibrate my headset" command. This is usually a function of the headset that is vibrates on the "Incoming Call" alert.
This behavior hints that the bracelet is aware of "Incoming Call" verses "audio gateway opened" which isn't good for you.

Is there a *.jcf file on your phone?
That is the config file.
Maybe you can edit the incomming SMS part to match incomming call.
On the other hand, Kyphur is probably dead-on right with his analyses.

last time i checked it was perfectly okay to request custom software in dev and hacking, which is what the op is doing... he just needs to reword his thread title to reflect that properly.

[Q] Unread text not showing

Alright, hopefully someone can help. I am running a WVGA HTC Imagio with WM6.5 and a NRG custom rom with sense 2.5. I just recently installed and then removed the newest HTC Messaging Client. Couldn't send or recieve MMS messages. Thats all fixed now, but, whenever I get a text or MMS message, the notification bubble shows in my top bar, but nowhere else, not even my unread notification on Sense. It does show up in the standard lock screen (HTC's) however.
No, it doesn't show up in Titanium either, just shows 'no new texts'.
It also doesn't show up when I use ThrottleLauncher, iPhoneToday, Infinity, Androkkid, or Home2.
So, it shows up in the lock screen, but no where else. Any ideas?
also, why is my tag or whatever showing that 'OP' thing?
anyone got anything?
Theres got to be someone that can help out there!
Alright, got a little more information. I checked HKCU/System/State/Mesages/SMS/Unread and the 'count' register. When I send a test text, it doesn't change, it stays at 0. BUT when I change it manually to '1', then it registers in all my systems (TL, iPT, Sense 2.5, etc).
But when I remove the '1', its back to where no notifications other than in the top bar and lock screen are given. I do get the usual message notifications via sound and vibrate as well.
So, does anyone have any idea on why it works for the lock screen and top bar, but not in sense or any other UI?
Mister, you are in a habit of posting multiple threads about the same thing at different places.
If you are not getting any answers maybe there is no solution.
PM'ing me won't help you.
D&H forum is meant for posting Development and hacks not for asking for solution.
Please read the posting rules.
And you had already posted the above question here and then re-posted it in D&H which is breaking the XDA Rules.
As i said that your problem may be related to the ROM or the messeging client, try and post in the ROM thread ( that is the the Thread from where you got the ROM which is currently installed on your device ) or the messeging client thread.
I did not move your thread i closed it ( the thread which you posted in D&H this one )and so will i close this one.
Please post in the correct places Only.
And also your thread ( the one i shut ) did not get "lost" if you would have just gone to your profile and seen the threads created by you you would have found it.
Please read the rules carefully and follow them.
Do not break them.
You have broken a rule, consider this a warning; you may earn yourself a vacation from XDA on breaking a rule again.

[Q] Use SMS/Whatsapp like iMessage

The problem:
I would like to use SMS/Whatsapp like iMessage; one inbox and when sending auto detect method (SMS/Whatsapp)
I have been googling for this subject for quite a while and I can't seem to find the solution and I really don't (want) to believe that this has not been developed yet; Whatsapp is cross platform and therefore would be better than just iPhone to Iphone, BB to BB etc. How could they not have developed this yet @ Whatsapp...
@admin / mod,
Sorry for placing the question in the wrong section. I can't seem to find out how to move topics either (guess my number of posts clearly reflects my noobism). If needed, could you please move this topic to Q&A
I Think this imposible. Whatsapp it's a third party app. Whatsapp cannot integrate with any brand.
Maybe in the future we use RCS (Rich Communication Suite). It´s a chat system that integrat in any phone.

It's actually perfectly possible. If the whatsapp developers included SMS in their app then it would be what the OP is asking for. It's just a 3rd party SMS app, and there's plenty of them around.
In answer to the OP, get in touch with the whatsapp developers and ask them if they have any plans to integrate SMS. What you're asking does make sense, but it doesn't currently exist, so go suggest it
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions &
Read the Forum Rules Ref Posting
Moving to Q&A
I've seen all kind of apps 'manipulating' and catching in / out going text messages so whatsapp should be perfectly capable of doing such a think. The thing is; I thought I wasn't looking for it correctly. It simply cannot be that I am the only one thinking about this with the release of iMessage. To bad I cannot code a thing like that but this could be a money bomb if whatsapp fails to take on the market.
Workaround...
i came across the same thing the OP wanted , and its simply not working , whereas if long tap contact > send message > and i choose "viber" , it works perfectly... think its something whatsapp developers have to fix....
workaround....
but , if u click on the contact portrait , then u will have that pop up with all avaliable communication apps , and u click on whatsapp icon , then it will redirect u to that contact's chat window..
i know its not as convenient as setting it the default sms app , but there is nothing we can do about it but waiting for the developers of whatsapp to fix that...i attached a screenshot of it...
hope this helps....
cheers...

[Completed] Unreadable Messages M+ access Code: 7258

Hi Everyone
Using a stock Spring LG G2 and having trouble with my text messages being.. scrambled. For every message, the body just reads "M+ Access code: 7258, Message ID: HTWE5379".
Any idea what this could be or mean? I've tried googling as an LG and as an Android issue but coming up empty. If I can provide any further details or if you have any thoughts please let me know.
Many thanks in advance.
Hi, I am guessing that you mean Sprint, not Spring??
There does not appear to be related info on XDA.
The closest info I can find on the net tells me it may be related to apn/roaming apn.
Since your device is stock, my suggestion would be call the carrier for assistance.
Good luck !!
Hi, I haven't found anything on your particular error. Strange.
I think it would be best to ask in the G2 Q&A section and see if people who own the phone can offer some insight.
