I had the problem for a couple days after getting my hero. I connected it to my task killer. Here's some stuff you can try.
reboot and try agian
make sure auto recieve is on
update your prl
download 3rd party messenger app
restore to stock
if still screwed up... contact sprint
I haven't had the first problem with my sms's after rooting and installing a modaco's rom
Make sure you enable auto-retreival of sms and mms in whatever messaging app you're using and report back to us.
well i updated the prl. i have no idea what that is, but apparently it worked. did that and rebooted and it seems to be working fine now.

prl is your prefered roaming list... it tells your phone what towers etc you operate on

Few steps:
1. Go in to the default Messaging app > Menu > Settings and uncheck retreive sms and mms > uncheck notifications
2. Home > Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage > Messaging > Clear Defaults
3. Go to the people app, do like your going to send an sms message, a pop up will come up asking which app yyou'd like to do this from > check-mark default and select your preffered messaging app
4. paypal me $1

oh hell... i just learned something new... thanks!
UPDATE: BALLS!!! it don't work... :/
what does work is under people > contact > hold down on send message and you can choose default
I just started having this problem after doing the root and modaco rom. I have tried a PRL update, hard reset, and numerous soft resets, verified my auto-receive settings and have tried the stock app as well as handcent.
Any ideas?

Notifications are turned off by the following:
Go into the Default Messaging app (HTC's buggy one)
Menu > Settings > Scroll Down and Uncheck Notifications

Are you saying you removed the stock messaging application? If so, my understanding is that would be very problematic at best. Unfortunately the Hero still uses some code from the default Messaging app (even if you are using Handcent SMS or Chomp and have it set as the default SMS client)
"Long time listener. First time caller"
not the stock messaging app, the stock app
So, the more I'm reading about this issue, the more it appears this is possibly a permanent problem on the device once it appears. I have tried everything and cannot receive a text.

Can you provide a list of all the sprint/stock stuff that you removed?
So I called sprint tech support today. The tech was pretty helpful and seemed to be familiar with the hero. After 30 mins of various tests he came to the conclusion that I had originally suggested (bluetooth causes low ROM) and asked me to exchange the phone at a local store because htc wants this "batch" of phones back.
I find it hard to believe this issue is limited to a "batch" of phones as that would indicate that they know exactly what is causing the problem and would be able to fix it.

Anyone using Google Voice with your Android Build?

I'm trying to get google voice to work but receiving notifications when I receive texts on my gv number but it seems the only way I can see the texts, is if I open the gv app and refresh manually.
Not sure what happened but before I was able to get notifications at the top bar and it alerts me whenever I receive a text. Not sure if it updated or maybe because of this Android build but I can't get it to work anymore.
I just realized now that I have been getting alerts on the MCCM v1.5 customize Android build now. I tried to go back to the [mccm SE 1.0] build one (where I remember getting alerts) but no luck anymore.
I have the 3.14 TMOUSA ROM and the Android 2.2 Build FRG33 [ mccm v1.5].
Does it work for anyone here? If so, please give specs of your build so that I can duplicate. Thanks in advance
Background data uncheck?

its checked
Check your Sync and notifications Google voice settings:
Synchronize Inbox should check
Background data should says Enable
Inbox notifications should check
Make sure you have working data connection.
I double checked the sync settings. Tempted to start over and restart everything. Maybe I should go back to factory ROMS (not sure how though lol)

[Q] Evo on Boost How To Enable True MMS??

Hello all. I have an Htc evo on the boost network. Everything works well. The problem is the mms messaging. When I get an incoming mms message it goes to this website for.boost mobile called media mail. I have to log into the site to get my pictures...its really annoying. I just had an Htc hero flashed the same way and it gets true mms messages right to the phone. Is there a way to fix the boost media mail issue so that the mms messages go diregctly to my Evo?

i have evo on boost and had the same problem. what i did was use root explorer and deleated mms apk and mms odex from system/app, then download go sms from the market, copy that from data/app to system/app and my mms works perfect now. i would suggest downloading android mate from the market, use this to stop and locate the name and where the app is at on your phone before going into root explorer. ps google free root explorer. after placing go sms in your system/ app folder download handcent from market. this is going to be the mms. app that you are going to use to veiw the mms on your phone, turn off all notifications in go sms so that you don't try to open with go sms.
you may need the right apn...i sent them to my friend and it fixed his problems using apn backup/restore
Can you email me your apn because I have calls and sms working but no data or mms please help! Email me at [email protected]
@calvinfla, i did all of u said to do and it doesnt work. still get that 9000 media message from boost. did u do exactly what u said or maybe forgot something? let me know, pls that 9000 message is urrrrrrr.
I believe the MMS server is "mm.myboostmobile.com". The other poster had it as "mm.myboostmobile.sprintpcs.com" I couldn't send or receive until I changed it and it worked right away after I changed the server.
I have changed the server to http://mm.myboostmobile yada yada and still am not able to send MMS. I have received them and data is working, just need the ability to send. Any ideas?
I am on the 1/11/2012 Energy rom with Sense 3.5
That ROM does not have EPST capability. Are you certain you changed the MMS server?
Did you change it on that ROM or did you changed it once and then flashed to that rom? Reason I'm asking is because just because you changed it once doesn't mean it sticks after you flash a few roms or whatever.
If you want to stick with a Sense 3.5 rom and want to send MMS, the only way I've found that would work short of editing code in the Mms.apk (pretty freaking hard and takes some time) is to download GOSMS Pro (free app in the market).
Once you download that app, go to your regular messaging app settings and disable notifications on it. (if not, you'll get double notifications and that gets annoying)
After that, find this setting in GoSMS Pro...
Once you do that, scroll down and put in these settings....reboot and that's it!!
Yep, that's why I asked. It's the only way I know of also on 3.5 Sense Roms. So if you flashed that ROM the MMS server is set for Sprint NOT Boost.

Yeah is been a while since I've been on sense roms BUT last time I was on sense it was a sense 3.5 rom and it was ported over from a GSM phone so it didn't have EPST working. I don't know if that's the case NOW but the way I provided above is a sure bet with ANY rom out there for boost users!
I've heard of people using an old EPST.apk from sense 1.0 or whatever but that's a 50/50.....it never worked for me, hints the reason I'm on AOSP roms now!
Any more tips or whatever for boost...hit me up through PM!!

I am also looking for hints for boost and I have tried out a few other roms but didn't have luck installing CM7 which is the one I wanted to try. Can't remember why it wouldn't install right now though.
---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------
well, so far so good, I guess I have to use go sms for text/mms if I want to use Sense 3.5.
What are some better rom options? I like this one because most of the features work, didn't discover this until recently and HDMI isn't working but that is about it.

Correct one is http://mm.myboostmobile.com - worked for me great both ways with sense rom and gosmspro on boost mobile.
I have the same issue...
I was running Cyanogen 7 for about 8 months with now issues, everything worked flawlessly, till I flash Stock Rooted Rom 3.30.651.3-deodex-20110712-signed.zip...I just wanted to try something new, you know...well, it didn't go as planned. For some reason my phone got Verizon NAMs files or NV items somehow... or I really didn't pay attention to the ROM...but I have never used Verizon before so that was weird...so I flashed back to 4.54.651.1-deodex-20120104-signed and everything was working just fine after that except battery wasn't that stable...remember I wanted to try something new so I wanted the newest Rooted Stock Rom, so I flashed the 3.30.651.3-deodex-20110712-signed ROM again...everything worked as planned for a day and some, but today I get MSM errors...
"SMS Error
SMS Error: Message to not sent, Saved in Undelivered messages.
Please try again."
I cant get the EPST ##3282# to come up...whats up with that?...so I cant configure MMS URL to http//:mm.myboostmobile.com
Everything else is working just fine though.
This is what I got right now:
Android Ver: 2.3.5
Baseband Ver: 2.15.00.11.19
Kernel Ver: 2.6.35.10-g4b48446

Any help is greatly appreciated.

[Q] Unable to send sms after flashing custom rom

After trying to flash a few custom roms (CM, AOKP) on my CSPIRE S5, I realized that I have service, but cannot send any sms messages. Im not sure if its because the rom I am using is not meant for cspire devices or im doing somethinf wrong. Im sorry im a noob, its my first android phone after switching from an iPhone 4s. Thanks in advance
You probably need to input new APN (access point name) into your network settings. You should be able to find them and a guide on your network providers website or Google.
Check in the Settings > More networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Name

The app does not have my carrier listed and a Google search for my apn yielded results but they didn't work.

Hi,
APN settings are used for MMS messages and Internet access. It does not affect the SMS function.
SMS setting is just the SMS Center Address, that is stored on your SIM card (not on your phone), so typically it will not be affected by changing a ROM.
Try the following:
1- Put the SIM card into another phone and test SMS, to make sure your SMS function works fine.
2- On your Android phone, download another 3rd party SMS app (e.g. GO SMS...) to see if it works?

Sms works fine when I restore back to stock TouchWiz though. If I use a 3rd party messenger can I keep my number

No MMS S4 I337M

I was able to enable my AWS and it works great,but I could not use MMS. I could text and make calls but that's it. I was on 4.4.2. I tried upgrading the modem to a few different ones with the same results. I checked with my provider that my APN settings were right and nothing works. If I upgrade to lollipop, everything works great APN settings are picked up automatically. If I go back to kitkat, I get the same results, no MMS. I'm not really fond of lollipop and would really like to go back to kitkat but I'm having this problem. Anyone have a solution or something I could try to figure this out. I searched but couldn't find anything related to.
I was using a stock 4.4.2

Working, for some reason NI2 was the only one that would work. Not sure if it has anything to do with the enabling/flashing AWS, but now working.
If you've got PushBullet or other "share-everywhere" app (e.g. Airdroid) installed' try uninstall & test MMS again. That was it on my ATT Samsung Edge4. --markfast--
