Texting? - Fascinate General

Anyone else notice if the 250 characters limit went away with the update, or have my texts gotten shorter?

Phone rebooted twice today

I'm wondering why this is happening, it has done it before but 2 times within 3 hours. I'm beginning to worry... Any ideas?
Oddly enough it seems to do it right when I pick it up to use it.

I had mine reboot on me today as well, it's the stock rom with root. I didn't pick it up. It happened while I was tethered using the free Wireless Tether App and the phone was asleep.
Yea, I don't even have root.. it has done it 2 more times since my first post.

Just a guess, but check the battery temperature.
Dial *#*#4636#*#*
Select battery information.
Mines at 36c.

No OTA, no root, no ROM. sorry for the delayed response, passed out last night

Probably was just hot at those times and just rebooted. I don't think you should be too worried

one of my co-workers has been having the same issue. (completely stock as well). Mine has rebooted a handful of times, at least once that was possibly at the exact time as my co-worker's. He's called in enough that they are offering to replace the phone.
Me Too
My phone has been rebooting more and more recently. I suspect it is very poor signal causing the phone to work too hard, triggering a reboot. My will get to 109 degrees for no particular reason, and then start rebooting.
My warranty replacement (refurb) is expected today.

My I9000 send smses on his own during power on HELP

Hi
I got the sgs gt I9000
A few frinds told me that I sent them smses more than once, after we finished owr chat.
For ex: I smsed my friend yesterday at 00:00 4 smses. The device turned off at 07:00 this morning, and sent them again to her wheb I turned it on.
I didn't find any connection between the time I sent the sms to the time it was turned off.
It's like the sms is still in the outbox, after it is already sent, and when I turn the device off/on it sends it again.
Anyone knows about this kind of a problem?
Its round 4 smses a day, it's round 120 a month, in $ it's an exra 20$ to the monthly bill...

He said telco - your carrier.
Ok, thanks, I'll talk to Orange.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Ok guys, I talked to my carrier. They checked stuff from their side, qnd all is good.
Also, o checked if the problem accure with my e71, and I don't experience the problem with it.
That means it something with my sgs.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks

It might be the background MOSAD app playing up ;-D
If you use another app for sms try uninstalling it and check again...
Also check the last apps you installed before the problem appeared

Hi
I'm using the original app for sms, I like it a lot.
I uses Handcent, but thought it was the cause, so I uninatalled it.
I even uninstalled an app I used for popup sms.
All was b4 I wrote the post.
What I think ia left to do is reflash, and install app by app, to see what causes it. But it's a very long procedure.

Why do you turn your device off in the first place?

lolz. touche. also from the title the device definitely sounds possessed, but now I've gone off topic.
I change the batteries in my device once a day so I don't over-cycle/over-stress them, it happens to give the dual purpose of a reboot which is good for the phone. Turning the phone off has its places.
looks like the same poltergeist as mine, infact random clicks often sends sms or gtalks just a matter of luck

Severe battery drain...

Guys, I am experiencing a horrible battery, even on a mAh 3500 one. I've been doing a little bit of research and on sprint.com, it states I've used over 6.4 gigs of data in the last 5 DAYS. I am hardly ever using the phone, except for going on xda and texting. I also have an app called pfinance that updates my stocks every 15 minutes...thats 7 widgets. But there's no way that should hit 6 gigs....in 5 days!
Additional info: im running syndicate 1.1 atm, in the past 4 days, I was on midNIGHT rom v5 (which I downloaded via wifi, incase u suspect that added to my 6 gigs of data.)
Somethings happening to my phone and I wanna know what. Lol!
Edit: I checked running processes and found telenav navigator (the new one that replaced sprint's nav app) running and will not stop. I uninstalled so we'll see how that goes....
Edit2: I am running touchwiz.
Edit3: Attached a file showing my usage. LOL

Time Stamp Wrong

Has anybody had issues with their epic showing the wrong time or having the wrong time stamp on texts? If so, is there a way to fix this?

Typically a network error. Update Profile and PRL.

I find whenever that happens, it happens to the lady's phone too. I usually chalk it up to maintenance on a tower near my house. It usually lasts for a day or two.

If it's consistent, it can be fixed, if it's not a forever issue, then it'll go away.
In my case:
My # starts with 214, (Dallas,TX) area code. But I live in Oregon, and roaming 24/7 with 1x.
SO
My timestamps have *always* been wrong. lol
I used the app, SMS time fix. I just selected the option to fix my timestamp according to my phone's time (which is correctly sync'd to Pacific-Time Zone) and tada! my problem's solved.
Permanently
Also, it's not a resource hog either, like 2.7mb of ram?
The gingerbread update seems to have actually fixed the "wrong timestamp while roaming" issue, so no need for that app any more.
I've been roaming nonstop for about a week now and all timestamps have been spot on.

If you take a look at my Carrier, it isn't sprint, so it may be fixed for Native Sprint users, but not my carrier.

Gf's S3 won't receive my texts anymore!

Her phone just stopped receiving my texts! She still gets texts from other ppl fine and when she sends me texts I receive them! First time this ever happened under these conditions.. Because I can also send texts fine to other ppl.. This is weird..
I told her to take her Sim and battery out for a half hour and it didn't help
