Text messages keep resending

[BenjeeNy]

Hi all,

I've been having this rather baffling problem for a while now where various people have reported that they keep receiving copies of text messages I've sent them. This appears to be happening with no rhyme or reason - Sometimes they re-send, and sometimes they don't. It happens to some people I send text messages to, but not others. The only thing I have observed is that these repeat messages do appear in my sent items and I noticed that one repeating text message was stuck in my outbox and I was unable to delete it.

I'm using DCD 3.2.0 with radio version 3.42.30. I don't think this has anything to do with DCDs rom or the new radio as I've had this problem for several months. The only additional software I had installed was HTC Home - I did a hard reset for now and didn't install HTC Home just to see if that was the culprit - No problems yet.

I've searched the forums and found some people having this issue in the past, but no solution as far as I can see. Has anyone else had this particular issue? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

this is most likely a carrier (network) issue and has nothing to do with your phone. if you're on verizon, try dialing *28899

Sorry - Forgot to mention I'm on Sprint. I've already contacted them and they supposedly reprovisioned my account, but that hasn't appeared to help anything. Thanks for your response.

i guess you could try reflashing, but like i said it sounds like a network issue so you'd probably be wasting your time. did sprint recognize a problem?

[BenjeeNy]

Yep, already tried reflashing. And no, Sprint said everything looks peachy on their end.

are you getting any kind of notification that your text wasnt sent? are they queing up at all? are you using SMS software?

Well, I occasionally get a notification that it wasn't sent if I tried to send a text message at the exact time I received a text, but I'm not sure that those are the times my texts would start repeating. No additional software - Just using the standard threaded text messaging that comes with wm 6.1.

i dunno man i would just call Sprint and ask them to reset/refresh things on their end regardless of how it looks to them. i'm not familiar with how Sprint works or how their tech support is. sorry i couldnt help more

[BenjeeNy]

That's alright, man. Thanks for your help. Much appreciated!

well I have experienced this problem with before. This problems occurs when your texts messages are not send thru the first time...next time when access the conversation thread all of the unsend draft messages will be resent, thus creating a double message so to speak. what I found to fix the problem is to reflash and rerun the sprint cab. Generally this should fix the problem. If you are continuing to experience this problem I believe you might have a radio incompatiblity problem. I suggest to flash with different radio.

Interesting point. However, I've had this problem with several different roms and radios so I'm not sure that's the culprit. Also, I've reflashed several times and the problem keeps coming back.

reflash the newest official sprint rom and test it out for a bit. if you still have the issue then its obviously on the network and don't let them tell you otherwise.

[BenjeeNy]

Well, I've already done that as well. :)

I tried the newest sprint rom before moving to DCD. Well, I guess I'll go and harass Sprint. Again, thanks for your help.

Well unfortunately you are going to have to live with this unless Sprint steps up.......it is a Sprint issue and it happens to everyone.....but I can say it has not happened to me in a little while....I have ran many radios and roms and it still happens....every time you talk to Sprint everything is peachy on their end:rolleyes:.....LMAO....
