Different message delivery notification?

On a previous phone I owned, the message delivery notification was just a little icon that appeared in the sent items list. On my N95 notifications were saved in a seperate folder without popping up on screen or ringing/buzzing.
On the raphael, delivery notifications are just normal text messages, which isn't the most practical solution. Is there software for WM that can change this behaviour? Turning it into an icon view would probably be difficult technically, but not displaying a bubble when the notification arrives and silently moving it to a seperate folder would also be a nice solution.
So, is there any way to enable this on the Raphael?

Anyone?...

I tried the program SMS reports eraser, but that doesn't do the job either :/
Is there software that just intercepts the report, marks it as read and places it in a seperate folder?

You should try MagiCall.

Thanks for the tip. I installed it, and made a rule saying that all SMS messages containing the word 'delivered' should be marked as read and moved to a seperate folder. I then saved, performed a softreset, and sent a SMS to a friend.
Unfortunately, this one doesn't work either Could it be that the TF3D interface is overruling the Messaging app, and with it blocking programs that try to tie into the messaging part?

I also find the way these are handled annoying compared to my old N95. The notifications don't even have the person's name, just the number which makes it even worse!
I tried SMS reports eraser and it stopped me from being able to send messages and when people sent them to me I never got them even though the other person got a delivery report!
A suitable program or idea for these would be great. This is my first windows mobile phone and that's probably my biggest issue with it, apart from that it's great.

Ignore this!

Start>Settiings>Sounds & Notifications Select Notification tab. Go to New Text Message. From there, you can select Display Notification on Screen. That keeps the popup to nothing more than the envelope in the top bar once you deselect it.
Hope that's what you are looking for.

Delivery reports have no phone number but with a sender name, such as 'System Administrator'. To filter them, just use MagiCall to filter that sender name. Example:
Rule type: SMS
Filter type: Sender name
Name list: System Administrator
Action1: Move to folder
To: spec_folder
Leave all other settings default values. It should work.

Solution
Well, i seem to have the same problem, but i have found using Advance Config software to actually solve this problem. I am not sure if that is what u guys are looking for but after using the Advance Config, i will get a msg saying "msg sent" whenever i send an sms, but not get any report. So i am assuming when it says "MSG sent" it is already a delivary report which i got from my previous WM from from other PDA.
So here is how u do it. First install Advance Config, then go into settings, under messaging tab, change "sms sent notification" from disabled to enabled.
And restart your phone. Once done, everytime u send an sms, u will recieve a buble box saying " msg sent" thats all. No rubish in your inbox.
Let me know if this help. Thanks!

Is there any way to see the persons name in the notification instead of the number? This has been annoying me since I got my phone

While this works, this isn't exactly what the previous posters wanted. They wanted the delivery reports and not the sent reports.
Symbian S60 intercepted these delivery report messages and then displayed them as "popup dialogs" to users before storing them into a separate folders. This is also one of my gripes about WM6. But I can live without delivery reports.

Install the attached cab file and it will solve your problem......It worked perfectly on my TP

oK, thanks, I´ll try it tomorrow

I'm having the same problem, I was post a new thread but I searched and found this.
I like delivery notifications, but the fact that it comes as a normal SMS instead of a popup notification like on other phones is really annoying.

I'm not getting any notifications (sent or delivered) and I want to get at least 1. I live in an area where I have pretty spotty service and it's annoying to find out an hour later that my text never actually sent. Is there any way I can turn it on?
I checked the htc manual and it says I should be able to enable a delivery report before sending the message or in message options. However, my message options are light grey so I can't click on them. It's been like this since I took the phone out of the box.
Thanks so much.

[Q] Android: SMS messages come in blank as from "5556"

So I'm having a peculiar problem which doesn't appear to be specific to my model phone (which happens to be a Samsung Captivate).
I use Google Voice for my text messaging so I'm not sure when this started. But I'd like to be able to at least receive text messages that people try to send to my main number. But what happens now is that I see the message text appear in the notification part temporarily, but when I go into the stock SMS app all I see is a separate blank message from "5556" and always with a date of March 26 and a time of 12:19AM. The actual message doesn't appear anywhere but temporarily in the notification bar.
I've used APNdroid and QuickSettings in the past to disable 3G but leaving the "allow MMS" option checked. Neither is currently enabled but maybe they mess with settings somewhere?
And like I said, I have Google Voice installed too. Not sure what else could have messed with settings. My message center is set to "+13123149810".
I have been searching and saw these threads so it's not unique:
Nexus One: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8814554
HTC Desire: http://androidforums.com/desire-support-troubleshooting/192806-sms-mms-issue.html
No solution though. Any thoughts?

I am having the same problem with my aria. I thought it was an app that I downloaded. Anyone able to help?

What the heck!?
I am having the same problem on my Samsung Vibrant(T-Mobile). It started about a 10 days ago. At first I got both the message and a blank one from 5556 but now I am only seeing the message in the notification bar and then its gone. This is so aggravating!! Anybody got a cause for this???

Has anyone tried a factory reset? Does that fix it?

Bump?
Need more text... too short...

5556 Message not Unique to Android or Google Voice
Hello there,
I'm new around here, but just found xda due to receiving a 5556 message myself. I have an android device, but not phone; my cell is a cricket Kyocera, and I just received this message from "5556",
Want a family plan with the freedom to customize each line of service? Bring in an eligible phone, add a line for just $15 & get the 1st month free."

What is significant about this to your issue? Well I unsubscribed to Cricket's text messaged ads, so it looks like this is a way to anonymously advertise with some plausible deniability, or something like that. Perhaps it is an advertising service, a third party, or other...in any case it is definitely anonymous, being neither a number nor a name. : ( If any here have a message to present, it would be appreciated, for that the more details we have, the better to figuring out what is going on. (In my case, perhaps even filing a legal complaint with the relevant authorities under the relevant statutes.)
If annoying enough, one could always go to a lawyer to seek a subpoena of a cellular carrier's records to find the source of communications, btw. Note I say going to a lawyer because IANAL and do not intend to give legal advice: I'm just cranky about unwanted spam having sat on waiting to talk to someone by the phone on my desk all day.

Phone numbers instead of names in stock HTC messages

I seem to have a weird problem with the Messages app from HTC. Searched all over the internet and XDA and nobody else seems to have reported the issue.
The issue is, if I go into the Messages app, the list shows all contacts names fine. But for some contacts, if I click into them, it shows the message history, but on top where it's supposed to show the name, instead shows their phone number, minus any separators, and a ">" symbol at the end.
Say, for example, a contact in the Messages app is John Doe. I see John Doe in the messages list, then when I click into it, instead of name it goes to, say, 15555555555>, and sometimes the whole thing is just black.
On the bottom where I write reply, the number shows up fine exactly as it's formatted in the actual contact info.
But if I try to reply there, when I click "Send", the keyboard disappears, but the message never gets sent, and this happens no matter how many times I try to reply or type the message again. As long as it's a reply, it doesn't work. But starting a new message to the same contact works just fine, but it's annoying to have to type the whole message, then copy and paste, and start a new message to the contact just to reply.
And it wouldn't be inconsistent formats either. Some numbers I have in both Google and Phone, I can delete all phone numbers except the Google one in the problem contact and issue persists. Some contacts have the number laid out the same way in (xxx) xxx-xxxx as the problem contact, and still works. I can change the problem contacts' phone number format to xxxxxxxxxx or 1xxxxxxxxxx and neither fixes anything.
I've tried pulling the battery, turning off fast boot and pulling battery, restarting, all the same result.
And this ONLY happens with the stock Messages app, all the other SMS apps I downloaded off the Market works just fine.
Any help would be appreciated, it's starting to drive me nuts.
Thanks!

I have noticed something odd about the stock messaging as well. In the text box where you type, some contacts display a phone number in the top of the box, while some do not. I don't know what causes it. I thought it was the way that HTC Sense sync'd to FB, but that didn't change anything.

I think it may have something to do with the Select Contact Name option when you edit a contact. Say I have a two phone numbers and an email address for Bob. Once I set "Bob" as the contact name for his entry, that it what appears when I start composing messages to him.
I hope this helps.

I can confirm the issue, so at least you're not the only one. But in my case it went away on its own sometime between temp rooting and unsuccessful over clocking

I posted this a week or so, I don't know if it helped the last person. but I had this EXACT problem and it was unbelievably frustrating when I first got this and after a few days of searching and banging my head against the wall, I found something that worked. This problem arised when I had double contacts from my messaging and I tried to rectify it. Eventually I got it all to work fine.
This is how you solve it (or how I solved mine).
1: Sync everything to Google. Edit the contact list in google (use the automatic duplicate deletion), delete useless contacts etc.
2. Remove contacts from EVERYWHERE. Sim card, phone, uncheck google sync. Your phone should then be completely empty for contacts.
3. Re-sync with google contacts. if you want you can copy it back to the SIM and you shouldn't get doubles. I think I just left it with google only but the end result is I don't have 9 different "danny's" show up when I go to compose new message because I know three of them.

This issue is bugging me too...
After experimenting today I have figured out why it is happening; any contact I have with an email address within the contact details I get the name followed by the mobile number within the HTC stock message app... Any contacts without an email address are fine.
I have experimented by removing an email address from the contact and straight away the said contact will display correctly in the HTC message app.
Unfortunately I have not yet figured out how to have contacts with phone numbers and email addresses display correctly. Real shame as loving my new Sensation... a minor niggle I guess

Tgis has happened to my phone once, but rectified itself with a soft-reset. It hasn't happened again since then. Not much help here, but its definitely not an isolated incident.

Yes, This happened with me too.... But after i synchronised my accounts with my HTC and google contacts.... it was all sorted out...i was just thinking of hard reset.... but i was saved Try it once...

[Q] SMS notifications on top, but message does not appear in conversation

Hey there, I hope you're doing great!
I'm creating this thread because I was wondering if the issue I am about to describe is a known bug or if it only happens with me.
The problem I am experiencing is sporadic, as I cannot determinate a specific cause for it; it sometimes happen right after reboot, and sometimes after long usage, after a call, simple idling, etc.
Of course the issue is that when I receive an SMS message from a contact, I see it pop-up at the top as a notification, but when I want to see it in the threaded conversation, it is simply not there. I can continue texting, and they continue receiving my messages properly, as do I... only by looking at the top status bar though, because other than that, the threaded conversation remains the same during the whole exchange.
My phone is not rooted, it is a brand new LG-P999 from Videotron (They call it the LG Optimus 2X here!) and it runs Froyo 2.2.2!
Thank you very much for your help, and of course, excuse me if this issue has already been looked into! Otherwise, have an awesome day!

Is it possible you are using a third-party text app? I ask because I mainly use Google Voice for my texts, but every now and then someone will text my phone number, which of course means it goes to the phone's message app. As you mentioned, you get the notification and can respond just fine. However, if I don't pay attention, and go to my Voice messages, their messages will not appear, and I have to switch to the built-in message app to see their conversations.

Thanks for your reply, but I am actually using the stock SMS app!

Hmph, started looking into the "Messages" app settings and found something called "Text messages on SIM card" and found all the messages I was "missing".
What causes this?! =O
*EDIT*
I looked on the Internet a bit but found nothing pertaining to the LG-P999/G2X. I, however, found information on the matter saying that this is usually caused by reaching the maximum capacity of SMS messages in your phone. I have about 120 messages all in all, which is certainly a very small number! I also have about 4.50GB of free space on my phone!
Thanks for the help!

This is a known issue from LG... Call the tech support and open a ticket.

Thanks a lot, it is definitely a relief to know that this is a known bug. Do you know how we can change the default storage of the voice mail, or I need to root?

Messaging App

Can someone please tell me step by step how the heck one does a group chat on this phone??

Well, you need to open the app > tap on three dots in the upper right > settings > advanced > group messaging > click the toggle for "Send an MMS reply to all recipients (group MMS)"
Then when one person replies to your original message everyone you sent it to will also get the reply. [[Remember though to turn this off if you do not want everyone to see all the replies because this can load up everyone's texts with numerous replies.]]
Then just add as many contacts as you want/need to the message you are creating and then send it.

Hi Thanks for getting back to me. I tried looking for the three dots but I don't have them when I open the messaging app directly.
I'm on OREO by the way. When I go to Messenger on the App info setting I see the three dots but when I hit it all I get is Uninstall updates.

I just went to settings, Network & Internet then internet settings DL settings for internet and MMS message says "Your device will now connect to the intenet for quick setup of internet and MMS services
I accept I see that something is DL but I can't find it. Where the heck is the DL folder. Is it asking me to set this feature up??

Ok so now it says set up complete. Now what??

O so I just restarted the phone. I now have the three dots but under advanced I don't see a group messaging tab

Still don't get it!

Hey Jaseman Please bear with me I'm coming from a Galaxy Note 3. When I go to my message app it does allow me to start a group conversation. When I pick my contacts for the message I want to send it does this but then it say where the message wil go " Each recipient will get an SMS message from you. Replies will appear in individual conversations"
That's not what I'm after. I want to send a group message with all contacts being able to see what everyone in the group is responding. Is this still possible??

I was on the phone with T-Mobile and they were dumbfounded as well. Per them All my APN settings are in order. They actually brought up the specs to this phone to see if they were missing something. They mentioned that most folks are using Textra because they can't get the messaging app to work via MMS. When I try to send a text or picture to a group the MMS arrow appears and when I press it states
" go to settings and change your group messaging setting to group MMS" Yes I know this but I do not have group MMS . T-Mobile sent me to Sony Support and they couldn't figure out why I don't have the MMS Group under advanced either and recommended I reset the phone. Look I just installed a bunch of apps and transferred over my music and books from my note 3 so I am not in the mood to reset the phone yet again. I actually got the TEXTRA app and it seems to be working just fine so I disabled the messaging app. I just need to know if it's the APP or my phone.

Well, that is certainly strange! I used Textra for a long time and it does work great. I just like to use the default apps when I can if they do what I need and the default messaging app does do everything I need.
Here is a screenshot of what mine looks like...
Sorry I was not able to help...well actually what I said was correct but I have no idea why this feature would be missing from your phone???
So when you look at the screenshot I have attached here...yours does not look like this?
I also use T-Mobile. So all of your network settings are correct?
Let's make sure...
Go to Settings > Network & Internet > tap on "Internet Settings" and a popup for Internet Settings says..."Your device will now connect to the internet for quick setup of internet and MMS services" and you tap on ACCEPT.
Then you should see a brief message saying "Download Started".
Then back on the original screen, up above Internet Settings is "Mobile network" and it says T-Mobile???
Tap on T-Mobile and at the bottom of the next window is "Service providers"...tap on this and you can choose either "Search networks", or "Automatic". If you choose Automatic you should get the message that you have been registered on the network. If you choose Search Networks it will disable your data temporarily and take a few minutes to find the network. Then you will have several choices under Available Networks and you should choose the top one 4G T-Mobile...there should be a check mark next to it. If you tap it it will say registered on network.
Now after doing all of this check your default messaging app to see if it has the same thing as my screen shot...if not...then I guess you can just stick with Textra.

Followed your instructions and after tapping Available Networks T-Mobile LTE has the checkbox. Should it be T-Mobile 4G??

Daisy192, I had the same problem when I first got my XZ Premium. The pre-installed messaging app did not include Group Messaging in the settings just like you described. I don't know why to this day. In fact, I started a thread here about it when I first got the device.
I ended up installing other SMS/MMS apps from the Play Store to get by. None of them met my needs perfectly.
Then at some point, the setting appeared when I randomly checked. I don't know what caused it to appear there but since appearing it hasn't left.
There have been a number of "Carrier Services" updates from the Play Store that I've installed over time. The description of these updates is along the lines of improved carrier features when using the stock messaging app. So maybe that's what eventually enabled the Group MMS feature.
BTW, I'm on AT&T in the USA.

LTE is fine.
I happen to have the Customized UK version. I purchased it from the UK so that the fingerprint scanner would work without having to flash anything.
I figured that the UK speaks English the same as we do here in the US and that this would make all the features work without having to do risky stuff.
Now the US version...which I believe is what you have...should say LTE, whereas the UK version says 4G...they are exactly the same thing!
Also, the US version I believe has 5 signal bars in the notification area whereas the UK version only has 4.
The number of bars is irrelevant because the OEM's can manipulate them to look great in a bad signal area thereby deceiving the end user.
The real test is what your dBm signal strength is at any given time.
Anyway, I see you got a response from someone who also had this issue and it magically fixed itself...hmmm.
Maybe after some more updates from the Play Store over time it will do the same for you. You can always check now and then.
Until it does fix itself I guess you can continue to use Textra. You will get used to it and going back to the default messaging app may be too hard to handle anyway.

Yeah seems to be a real conundrum!
Jaden and my phone is the international dual Sim version. I wanted a working fingerprint scanner too.
I will continue to check to see if it mysteriously pops up

Hey Experts today I'm going to bite the bullet and reset my phone with the Xperia Companion. Besides the main issue of not having the MMS Group setting on my Messaging APP, I am having an issue sending video to a group even though I'm using the Textra app. I am able to attached a GiF, Photo or anything else but video will not send. Yesterday I used Movie creator for the first time and created a short 19 second video compiled of a few photos. I hit share and chose the Textra app and it proceeded to send the video but then I kept getting notification that it was unable to send. After trying several times I decided to enable the Default Messages App to see if it would send video to just one person and nothing. All I got was a message that it was 'SENDING" When I awoke this morning it was still "Sending". I have my brand new Canon SL2 set up to work via Wi-Fi with my XZ Premium. I can take video and pictures, edit and do just about anything without touching the camera but I was also unable to share the one video I shot with the Textra App. Am I doing something wrong? Will The Companion fix these issues?? Is there a limit to how long a video can be when using either Textra or The Message App. Is it my Carrier T-Mobile issue?? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciate.

There is a limit on the size of the file you can send over MMS and it is rather small compared to the average video file.

Hey jaseman yes was able to finally figure it out. Reset with Xperia companion went smoothly but still no sign of mms group under advance settings. I was able to tweak settings in text rather app to 100 and legacy this allows me to send video via mms
