I seem to be getting pretty significant delay on my incoming SMS, with some messages taking up to 7-8 minutes to come in. I have an iPhone on ATT in one hand, and the Evo in the other, and I've been fast firing SMS to the Evo. I'll get maybe 1 in 3 texts right away, and the rest hang for minutes at a time. When I do get them, the time stamps look correct, and they thread correctly, but it's very concerning to not be getting them right away, or at least in the correct order. Any suggestions? I'm new to Sprint, never had this issue on ATT, or with my Nexus One.
i am experiencing the same problem.. any suggestions?

lately i been noticing that my texts have been coming 10 mins late or more after the person sent them,i think this has to do with the data connection cutting off on its own problem i been having because as soon as the person calls me i would get the text at the same time that they're calling me. has anyone else had this problem and if so how did you fix it.
texts dont use data connection.
Late txt behavour is usually caused by the network, not the phone. The SMS service was never intended to be an instant service, we have just gotten used to them being delivered almost instantly.
If you have another phone that your sim works in, id do some testing and compare the two.
i hag the g1 and my sim was in that phone last week and the texts was coming in on time and now they come in late,maybe it's this phones radio.
heh, yea, could be, but that was last week, too. on thursday my broadband was fine but all weekend its been half speed,,,,
all i'm saying is you need two phones right there and compare, just to be sure.
first step in trouble shooting is proving the fault.
Is anyone else having issues with, their sms timestamps? Its really screwing up the thread view of my sms window, makes for a somewhat confusing conversation.
SMS sent/received in same minute get sorted improperly.... annoying.
well I am receiving sms messages showing a time of 2-3 hours later than actual time received
I have this issue too. It only occurs when I am roaming though. My incoming timestamps are displaying as being 5 hours in the future. gah. This same problem occurred with my touch pro 2 and thought it was a bug. guess not. must be an issue with the carrier I am on when i am roaming.
any way to fix this?
yeah i have the same problem...i was just gonna post a thread about it.
i sometimes text with my girl nonstop for like 20 minutes, conversations get ridiculously hard to read. i send a text and her response is in the middle between to texts i sent a minute ago....
i used to flash sense roms on the g1 and always went back to a regular vanilla rom cause of this problem. now im stuck with this problem and every rom i go to has the same issue...sucks.
sigh, 30fps cap which a google employee said is not a software problem, fear of the glass of my screen raising above the bezel, now this? 720p video is very "720p" either. lotta gripes about the phone..sprint and htc f'ed up... it is a new product tho so i guess its supposed to come with a fair share of problems..
I just bought my EVO last week, and can't figure out why SMS messages are coming in as small chunks, in jumbled order. This isn't just splitting up at a 160char limit. I'll get the first 40 chars, then chars 80-140, then 41-79, then 141-160. etc
What is going on?
Never heard of that problem
Swyped From Eva Running Myn's RLS4!
Leave it to me to uncover a new error! Can't even find anything about this in a Google search.
I am occasionally having the same problem. I am using shadySMS so I thought it was related to that program. Are you using the stock messaging app?
No, I prefer Handcent but the stock messaging app does the same thing
The other thing that happens is that I wont get any texts for a while. And then all of sudden I will get multiple texts all at once. It's almost like the phone is not polling or connecting or whatever and then it connects and downloads everything. I wonder if this is related.

I don't think I'm having that problem. Texts seems to come in real-time. So maybe that is unrelated. Never know, though.
probably just spotty service during the Holidays.
I'm with Cricket (piggybacks off Sprint) in Raleigh and have been having some wonky SMS behavior as well.
I'm not sure how spotty service would cause texts to come in, in small batches. And a strong coincidence it began when I switched from a HTC Hero to HTC Evo
XDA, I am disappoint!
No one has heard of this problem?
Ok so now I'm not even getting text messages >160chars. I called sprint and they had me turn off the phone for 3 mins while they reset something on their end and still - I only get short texts.
I've got a GS5 on Verizon in the NY area. My txt messaging is really broken. I don't get txt messages until the next day. When they come in I get 40 of them at 1 time.
Many times I receive the same text from the same person 10 times in a row although they sent it only once. Outgoing is hit or miss.
My phone is rooted. Is there something I may have accidentally turned off or froze? It's killing me.

This problem may be due to network issue.
You should ask your service provider/mobile operator to investigate the problem.
Hello all, I've been a happy owner of a Note 3 32gb for Verizon for around 6 months now. The phone has been working great up until about 2-3 weeks ago and what its been doing in place has been quite strange. The phone REFUSES to receive phone calls, but its COMPLETELY random. Some days it will work just fine, others I will get reports from people that they called me 3-4 times, the phone rang all the way through, and I myself would never receive as much as a notification that I was even getting called. It's happening very consistently with my Girlfriend (We talk quite often, long distance relationship) and Its really beginning to get on both of our nerves. I've also had issues with text messaging, I'll receive messages from her DAYS after they have been sent (And I've already received them) and in some cases we've had texts come through that we didn't even send, at one point a text that I sent her, made it half way there, and the second half of the text was replaced with what appeared to be someone elses conversation. The phone works just fine for surfing the internet, tethering, etc, but when it comes to calls and texts it seems to be all messed up. I've tried resetting it, and I've checked my sim card, neither of which seem to be the issue. I'm currently located in Pensacola, FL, and am receiving decent service (2-3 bars most of the time on 4GLTE). Anyone have any idea what the issue could be or a way to resolve it? I was really looking forward to the Note 4, but if this is the kind of thing I can expect from Samsung I'll end up going else where with my money.

The problem can be from the mobile network or from your phone.
But it sounds most likely the problem is from the mobile network.
Put your SIM card into another phone for a few days to see if any problem.
