SMS problems? - Epic 4G General

I'm running Syndicate Rom along with Phoenix kernel. As of late I've been having problems receiving text messages. Sometimes I'll receive them hours late (with the correct time stamp), other times I won't receive them till I send an outgoing message to the same person (where I get the pending messages almost instantly, again with the correct time stamp), and some messages I don't receive at all.
Has anyone experienced similar problems, and is it possible that it isn't ROM related but maybe some sort of other software conflict? Any ideas or input would be great
Thanks,

Same problem with stock di18. Its on sprint's end.

Yea, I've had this issue since Christmas. I thought it was my SMS popup application, but I think it's a Sprint issue. It's getting really annoying too.
Stock DI18, not rooted.

I've been having the same issue but it's only with certain people.

I notice it more on certain ROMs than others. Also I notice it more when texting my wife (sprint customer as well) than to/from other carriers.
Could be that it's on Sprint's end but not sure.

[Q]SMS says sent successful but people aren't receiving them!?

Im on CM7 if that matters...but anyways, i've noticed since i got my evo, people haven't been responding to my texts. well i've asked a few people and it seems some people aren't receiving my texts. It's on and off so its hard to diagnose. anyone?
yeah , I am the same but i am not receiving them, well it's been on and off, I don't know, I change back to sense because of this....
did switching back to sense fix it?
This is a sprint problem!!! It does not matter what rom you run! Trust me...
I have had this happen a ton of times before i even rooted. Sprint texting = fail.
Has anybody found a fix for this? My texts go through but am not receiving any back.

[Q] Anyone having problems with MMS on Sprint the last few days?

It's been taking me hours just to send one photo.. And half the time it fails. Also taking forever to receive them. I'm getting them 6+ hours after they're sent to me.
No issues here, have you switched roms or anything?
Swyped via my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
Went to CM7 when it came out but haven't switched since. Problems just started yesterday-ish
Problems yesterday but fixed today.
It's way better for me today, but still acting up.
My girlfriend and I are both having mms problems. We are both running CM7. I thought it was just crappy service, I just switched to sprint friday. I flashed sprint lovers rom just to see. It sends in like 10 seconds on that rom.

I have slight problems evey now and then but nothing major.. cm7
I use and love CM7 but there was an issue with MMS in the CM7 v7.0.0, but I think it was fixed. Yesterday I was not receiving MMS while I was roaming but I could send them. After I got home I was able to send and receive but never did get the ones from early that day.
My daughter tried to send me a photo on Sunday. Got a "Message not downloaded, Generic network error" notification, several times. After an hour or two, the message finally came through.

I experienced the same thing. I imagine that it was just a temporary network outage.

I have an htc evo on boostmobile and have been having the same problem the last few days with mms, Boost uses sprint towers so I guess it has something to do with sprint and nothing to do with phones/roms, I'm running Fresh rom.
Sure sounds like Sprint to me...
Glad it's over.
I tried a few different aosp roms the last few days. I had the same mms issue with all of them. It either took forever to send or never sent at all. I downloaded gosmspro from the market and changed the max size to <300k and I dont have any problem sending anymore.

300k would be the smallest not the biggest, correct???

I had the same issue. It may have been the network, but i flashed to CM7.0.2.1 and I haven't had any issues.

Then it would be the rom in that case, I'm a bit stumped because if I turn the phone off and then back on the mms message sends.

Text messages or picture messages???

Text message from the future.

Anyone getting text messages from the future while on roaming? Is there a solution to fix this little probelm? I'd rather not have to use a 3rd party messaging app. I like the stock one. I'm running SRF 1.1.0.

It means that when he gets a text, it says its from a time later in the day. If he gets a text at 2p.m. the phone says he got it at 6 or 7 p.m.Usually only happens while roaming, and its a Samsung mms.apk problem, if you flash the aosp messaging, it doesn't have that problem.

Even while roaming, I only got a slew of "future" txts when I was out of my hometown...although it was the same time zone :-/
OTOH, I remember when it was New Year's Eve/Day with my old Touch Pro a few years back, and I got txts from 1/1/2013. I rejoiced in telling everyone that the Mayans were wrong and we wouldn't all die in the end times. :-D
respond back to that text from the future and ask the person for the result of the Game 2 Mavs vs Heat game. I would like to make me a few bets if ya know what I mean. ;P
I used to get these on my iphone lol but they would be from YEARS in the future and would be empty. ****ed with me for a bit. Ive never heard of anyone having this issue or even heard of the issue itself before. I just figured the iphone was a piece of **** later on lol

I have this problem quite often because I'm roaming at work. It happened on my old Hero as well. There are some apps in the market that have seemed to work, though they seemed hacky last I tried, and resigned to just live with it. Just now a search on the market revealed http://market.android.com/details?id=com.mattprecious.smsfix , which looks pretty good. Haven't tried it.

I was about to post about this before I read the entire thread. I had this same problem from day one with my Epic at work because the signal at my cube for either side isn't that great and I flip between Sprint & roaming on Verizon constantly without using Roam Control to force it to stay on Verizon (which is what I typically do since Verizon's signal strength is a little better comparatively where I sit).
Anyway, I discovered the SMS Time Fix app months ago and have been using it ever since...and it works *almost* flawlessly. I still get the occasional text that somehow slips past the app's resident process, but about 98% of the time it works perfectly and adjusts the timestamp on incoming texts. So I definitely suggest grabbing that and using it for anyone with this problem.

Yeah it gets annoying trying follow a conversation when all the texts are out of order. Now if I could get her to text me the winning powerball numbers.
I'll check out the aosp messaging. Thanks for the tip.

[Q] Delayed Texting

I am having a problem with me texts that i am sending. They take a while to get to the person that i am sending them to. I have an updated radio on my phone. I had this problem before i updated the radio also. Thanks for any help with this issue.
I'm assuming its happening with more than one person?
If so do they have the same carrier?
Its possible there is an issue with theirs.
Yes its happening to everyone I text. No matter what carrier they have.

SMS delay

I'm on the cm7 nightly and there is a really bad SMS delay is there a fix for this?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Call your local sprint store, as that's typically a network issue.
I get that problem too
"I am always one of many."
Yes, it COULD be a sprint problem. However, if you JUST flashed this rom, it's likely a problem with the rom. A quick way to find out is to flash your backup of a previous rom and see if it works, very simple.
Text Delays
I have had anywhere from hour long delays to week long delays in the Chitcago area. Talked to Sprint CS. As usual they had no clue.
