hi guys, I saw this in the forums before but i just couldn't find it again but is there an app that can send text floods to someone??? I have this idiotic friend that loves to send 10 text of the same crap, its so annoying. Thanks in advance...i know there are other means of stopping but this kid needs to be put in his place. oh yeah he has a blackberry curve, i wonder if it crashes his fone if he receives too many text at the same time.

im afraid to ask any iphone friends if they have the same problem(s) as i do its hard enough to convince them the nexus isnt an iphone "wannabe". So I dont know if this is sort of a common issue regardless of OS, although i dont think this happened on my g1 or mytouch.
I receive a text message from "Bob", I open it and the thread has "Jenny" as the name in the actual conversation. In other words, one contact's name is at the top, and is the contact in the screen with all of the threads, but when i select it the text is actually from a different contact, and that name is the one that is followed by a colon and then the actual message. I dont recall this on my g1 or mytouch but its super annoying.
Also, i believe it only has happened (about 6 times total starting about a week ago) when im in the middle of a conversation with, say, person "A", and at some point they send a reply and its received as a new thread from person "B", but person A is still the name in the actual conversation. Theres a ton of bugs in 2.1, but i love the phone and Android and only wish for it to improve, which i understand takes time. This is just particularly frustrating because it started only recently. And yes i clear out the threads regularly but other than restarting the phone thats all ive tried. I dont doubt there may be an easy solution but i cant finger it out. Anybody? thanks
I saw this last night for the first time in the two weeks I have had the phone. I just hit the back button and then returned to the conversation and it was fixed, but I was confused. haha.
Speaking of weird glitches, I once got 5 aces in windows XP solitaire.... I have a screenshot somewhere....
good lord. i just got a text from one of my buddies that said "goodnight sweetheart want to tuck me in?"
then i looked above that one message and the rest of the messages in the conversation had come from my wife who's out of town, and it was in her thread. The phone just decided to make one of the messages from one of my guy friends.
I pressed back like you said and it was fixed but this is NOT cool...

HAHAHA. That's hilarious. What happens if you reply before it gets straightened out? I've only seen this once, so I haven't been able to test it...

This is actually another bug, that message was meant for your friend.
Sorry to break the bad news to you.

I'm going to guess you all have SMS popup installed and delivering notifications?
I was having this issue until I uninstalled sms popup and switched to handcent.

Not sure about sms popup being installed (if it's from the market, then no I do not have it), but I have delivery notifications turned on and I am using the stock messaging application.
I can confirm this happening to me as well and on multiple occasions. From what I can tell I would be texting with "Mike" and I would back out to do something else. Then I would recieve a text from "John" and it would show up with his text but with Mike's picture and name as well as name in the thread. It was very confusing before I had realized what really happened.
Ive has this a couple of times, the message does get sent to the right recipient though i can confirm.
Just hit back, open the thread again and itll be fine. Sometimes happens when you get a message from someone when your composing a message.

I experienced this problem today on my n1... and I experienced it before on my HTC Magic running official sense UI... I reported the problem to HTC at the time and they couldn't replicate the bug in their labs..
same issue here as well
I'll pile on and confirm this bug, but it seems to be limited to the stock messaging app. I haven't seen the problem replicated since I switched to Handcent last week.
I think it was actually just a little different for me though. Mine bugged out when I would go to the "quick messaging" option in the contact list (the thing where you tap on the contact's icon and the little list of ways to get in touch with them pops up) and hit the text icon. Once I hit that icon the text app opens with the contact I intend to text at the top, but the thread contents are that of a different person's thread - usually the last person I was texting.
Weird, but I guess a non issue since I like Handcent a lot better anyway.
After I send 100 texts (like using sms bomber to text bomb someones phone) I get an error message saying "program is sending multiple texts, press ok to continue, or cancel" and I have to ok each one after 100... anyone know how to remove this? We have some crazy pranking here at work....100 texts just doesn't do the job anymore lol... even if I close the program and re-open it, I have to ok every text once 100 are sent.
Dude. Seriously?
As lame as this question is, I do have a fix... Get a life and accept the fact that sending 100 texts is pretty lame.
No offense.
text bomb? if someone did that to me I'd smash their moble device. then kick them in the balls
I agree it may sound lame. Just tired of getting my phone blown up. I had smsnuke for the touch pro, when these guys would try bombing me, I would send a thousand texts to their phone, getting them off my back and rendering their phone useless for a couple hours.

so if someone doesn't have unlimited messages, you have no problem with the fact that your prank would cost them $5+ per "prank"... how funny!!!
seriously, your at the wrong place if you think anyone will care about your problem or want to help you...
I am not looking to do this to just anyone. Just two guys I work with that have blackberrys with an app that they are using to blow up my phone with texts.
Call the FCC...
SMS bombing is illegal, just as a DDOS attack is .. lol
joking..
but in all seriousness.. Search youtube.. There's many of videos about how to do it without an app..
Hi everyone,
I just got my wildfire and I've already experienced a bit of an issue with it. I tried texting my friend today with the phone and i noticed that all the messages i send is gathered together on one end while her text messages are grouped together on the other end. I was wondering if there's a way to resolve this; I can't say I enjoy scrolling up and down endlessly trying to read my texts and try to respond to it properly.
the second issue is the fav't list. I tried setting my fav't list with the contacts on my phone that's not on fb or any other social network and it doesn't seem to work at all.
thanks for the help.
p.s. I'm not new to the forums, I started out being apart of this community as a sony ericsson x1 user, now I'm using the wildfire. It's great to be here, I'm very excited and hope to continue to help make some helpful and constructive contributions to the forums.
I guess I should explain this more clearly just to make sure.
here's what happens when I text
It seems to appear as:
Text 1 to me
Text 2 to me
Text 3 to me
Text 1 from me
Text 2 from me
Text 3 from me
I would like this showing as:
Text 1 from me
Text 1 to me
Text 2 from me
Text 2 to me
Text 3 from me
Text 3 to me
Does that make sense and is this possible?
Thanks

Strange, in my sms app it shows up just as you would want.. and i didn't change any of the settings
Are you sure that your time settings are right? Because the ordening of the smses happens by the timestamp of a given sms, and it relays on the time of the phone that sends the sms. So if your friends phone sends an sms at, lets say, 9h, but its in fact 10h at your phone, your phone will still classify the sms "receved at nine o clock". In the sms app it will be classified just like that, so in this way it is not unlikely to think that all your smses (or those of your friend) will be clustered tougether because of a systematic time stamp mistake in one of the phones.
Hmm, not sure I'm making myself very clear but, just check your time settings ;-)

Thanks guys for your helpful suggestions.
Erwin P: I think it is the time stamp problem. luckily after some research and some help from a friend I was able to get a hold of a program call sms time fix. it seems to have solve some of the problems for now; atlease my phone is recieving messages like the way that i want them to, although it is still sending it somewhat delayed here and there.
I was wondering though...is this the problem of the phone, or the problem with my service provider?
Hello everyone, im a proud new owner of the evo. I am not new to android world but I have a question for everyone. Im looking for an app that will read my text messages out loud upon receiving. What app have you guys used and what is your opinion on the app. thanks

I would try vlingo. Awesome app.. Reads texts to you, you can compose texts too, with the push of a big button
I agree with aimbdd about vlingo. It will look up anything, navigate anywhere, or start any app you have just by voice command. In the car, it's excellent, since it reads your texts and emails to you as they are received. And it's very easy to text someone with just your voice while driving in the car. Excellent app.
Alternatively, have a look at DriveSafe.ly that is what I use on my phone and love it.
Hi guys,
I have recently got my galaxy s5 and love it but there's one problem. I love to use emoticons as all my other friends send them and so do I but have recently realised that my phone is taking a long time to send long messages as I say I've sent them and my friends screenshot the conversation and show that they haven't received them. This typically happens if the text is over the ' 1 ' that comes out (pages of writing I think). Because the first emoticon is like 100 characters it basically makes any text impossible send straight away. Sometimes it is the same when receiving them as well. My friend has recently sent me 6 text messages with emoticons and nothing is coming through..
Can anyone help me with this issue?
Thanks,
Jon
