sms with delay

Hi there, due to the fact that the search option doesn't work with less then 4 characters, i can't search for "sms".
But here's my real problem:
I've flashed different roms into my mda vario, after unlocking it. First the Molski.biz rom, then the last original t-mobile rom, but it was toooo slow, i've imediatly deleted it, en flashed the mr clean rom.
But in all roms i have some delay in recieving sms-messages.
Half the time they appear directly after they were sent by my friends, but sometimes i get them after a few hours. for example: it was sent at 15:00, and i received it at 17:30.
And sometimes i don't get any sms-messages, and after an soft-reset, i get 10 at one time, all delayed.
does anyone know what to do about it? or what causes it?
Regards,
Twan

i sometimes get this too though not often its usually when my phone loses signal and when it comes back into signal it wont recevie txt messages until i soft reset or send another txt out then ill get like 4 all at once lol.
Wizard isnt the best phone for txtin i must say as i send a good 1,000 txts a month and so far its poor.

Sounds like a network issue to me...
The network isn't registering the phone or something similar. For SMS the towers "push" the messages to the phone. Queuing them when they don't detect the phone on the network. If the phone is on the network and not getting the messages until it is reset and forced to re-acquire its signal than it is a network problem.
I've seen this problem on a few networks regardless of phone make and model.

I would agree with the above, its a provider issue not a phone issue.
I have a debate with Orange about 10 years ago about not getting text messeges when I loose and then regain service. I was told that when a text is sent to a phone that is off or lost a signal the message is stored until a set time has passed and then delivery is retried, thus getting all the messages at once. The way 'around' this is the disconnect the phone from the network and re-connect. This forces a scan of the message queues and again you will get all messages in one go.
I would assume going in to Flight Mode and back will do the same thing as a soft boot, but I have not tested this.

Okay,
so i could suggest it's not quitte an rom- or wizzard-issue, but a network-issue.
I also think going to flightmode and back will solve the problem. So we will hear from you if that's a solution?
I'm busy reflashing a new rom into my wizzard.

I would hope that as you seeing the problem that you could test this. I get all my texts on time (luckely) so I can't help you I am afraid, I can just share my thoughts.
Let us know how you get on.

I've tried, but now there's nobody who has sent me an sms
ghehe, i'll wait....
but i do think it will work.
i'll keep you posted

This is happening to me all of a sudden and its not a network issue. I have 4 phones on my account and i texted between all of them and only my phone won't get the messages UNLESS I reboot my phone or use smartskey to close a window.
Here is the strange part, when a text message is sent to my phone, the screen turns on, but doesn't show the message pop.
Is smartskey blocking it?
Also, closing a window by clicking on the X also kicks the message to come through

Text message problem

Hi, I'm having a problem with sending text messages.
I can receive them fine, but I'm having trouble sending them:
it will tell me that the message was sent but the recipients told me they didn't get it or they tell me they got it hours after it was sent. It shouldn't be a network problem as I can receive them, and its not a problem with my sim or plan with china mobile because on my old razr i could send them fine. Does anyone know what the problem is? thanks
edit: problem either fixed itself or only happens some of the time. would still like to hear input on the reason this would happen so i can make sure it won't happen again...thanks.

this has been happening to almost everyone i know, using many different phones, and many different providers. i don't know what's going on here in the States, maybe companies are updating their towers to support more 3G or something, but it's getting annoying.

Yes Its most definitely not your phone and its your friends...If you want to see how fast your phone is actually sending the messages, just send a text message to yourself...It goes pretty quick...Nextel Blows with texting soo if thats what your friends have tell em to go with t-mobile lol!!

damn that **** is happening to me now. i did hte text myself thing n it worked

SMS Message Problem!

Hi guys,
I'm having some difficulty with sending SMS messages. Its sporadic. Sometimes they send immediately, sometimes not at all. Its very frustrating.
For example, the day I got the phone (last week) I sent 2 text messages. I didn't hear back from anyone but thought nothing off it. I checked my messages and they were time stamped with the time I sent them at so I presumed they had gone.
That evening, about 6 hours later, I got my two replies. The people had only just got them, hours later. One of them wasn't impressed because it was intructions for something they needed to do 4 hours previously!
So, I turned on delivery reports on each sent message to make sure they sent.
Over, the next two days, I had no problems, delivery reports come in immediately within seconds of me sending my SMS message.
Meanwhile, I called my network (Vodafone) to see if there were any issues with network. they reported none. I checked the message centre number and verified it against the network one. They matched, so I thought all was in order... except I would have to get annoying delivery reports cluttering up my Text message inbox until I was sure the service was working 100%.
Earlier today, I sent about 3 important text messages, got no delivery reports, so I texted my other phone to see if the messages were going through. Nada. I was annoyed.
I'm thinking.. whats going on?
So about 10 minutes ago I shut down the phone and booted up again. Within 10 minutes I was getting all my delivery reports and replies from people!
Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong, what setting needs to be activated etc?
Obviously I can't use the text messaging on the device if I can't trust it to just work like pretty much every handset I've owned since... year dot.
PS: I spoke to Vodafone care team who said my sim card must be old; newer sim cards (128k) are needed for these "high tech" phones.
But I just took my sim out of my Nokia N97 (never had a problem) last week AND messages ARE going through on the Leo occasionally and only after a reboot, which is utterly pointless.
This is the last thing I thought I'd have issues with on a device like this..
Any advice? Have I missed something?
Thanks.

Same here, I thought I messed up something in the sms service or so.
Done many hard resets and soft resets. But still no help.

I'm experiencing exactly the same problems. Also Vodafone and no one seems to get any sms from me.

Okay, this ain't good!!

since you both have vodafone, and I haven't seen/heard about other people having these problems, I'd say it was voda's fault

Now tell me, why? I've never had problems on my previous phones.
I don't think the vodafone on the Ireland branch is the same as the one in the Netherlands
Kinda happy to hear that you guys also having the same issue.
It can probally be patched/fixed by htc. I googled for "htc sms hotfix"
And htc is also facing sms issues on other devices.

sigh... How will I live without outgoing SMS capability? so lame... hope you guys will find a fix soon.

seems to be the same like the sms bug in previous manila 2.1 build. outgoing messages weren't send, but only on some specific providers.

How could such a fundamental and critical phone component get screwed up? That just doesn't make sense. Anyone got ideas out there for a fix or we we have to wait for HTC to patch this? What about people who purchased a Leo and have no knowledge of this site etc deal with something like this? They buy a 500+ euro phone, try to send a text message, no joy. Baffled, annoyed, frustrated. Phone would get returned right? Not happy.

I've had this same problem on ATT in the USA

Had? so it's fixed now?

Just had this problem on t-mobile UK. The thing is that if you're in conversation mode it actually gets inserted as if it's been sent. I looked in outbox and it was stuck there, even after pressing 'retry send'. I tried a reset but it was still stuck there, so i retyped the message and sent that, both ended up being sent, with the origanal sms being time stamped as if it was sent ages ago!

I sometimes have this problem too....
O2 here.

In case it helps, I'm not having any problems on 3UK. Are you all certain it's not a network issue?

Perhaps it is to be honest... and perhaps tapping 'resend' just makes it happen in the background so it just appears that it does nothing.
I still find of the most annoying things to be the fact that the auto capitalise new sentence option to not work.... it's bad for perfectionists!!

+1 !!
It might look like it's mainly vodafone but in the UK at least it by far the biggest network, therefore it's bound to affect more voda users. Only 15 posts and already i see vodafone, att, O2, t-mobile, different countries, different networks.

This is the same issue that I've had this week with my Touch Pro running the Leo ROM, the device seemed to be turning all my SMS into MMS and then not sending them, though the odd one would sneak through. The problem has been fixed with an update to the custom ROM I'm using. It's the Energy ROM by the way. I'll send the author a message to see if he can pop on here and offer advice on the problem.

same here O2 in my phone.. even receive some messages later.. pls help us someone

No, I have not made any changes that would have fixed the problem, but it is sporadic and only occurred twice a few days ago.

unfortunately same problem on o2 uk

SMS sent are blank on other side. .

one of my friends is running the stock rom on tmo. This is her second hd2 as the first has issues and now this one when a sms is being sent it will send a blank txt. Has this been an issue with anyone? any help would be appreciated. thanks!!

I do have the same problem!!!!!!!!!!!!

no problem for me, did you try looking at all the sms and sending methods to see its correctly going to the server and stuff?

^ I have not its a friends and I will be checking it out later today, I guess its a problem when she sends longer sms that are more than 160 char's.

Network issue with Verizon/Altell at the moment...
Issue not specific to device type.

I think I actually had it happen too, this morning...I sent three texts to a friend this morning (yep, she's on Verizon), and they call came through blank except for the word "page"....so I think this validates that statement.
EDIT: However, she's been able to get texts and MMS both from me, instantly and completely, for the past hour or so...maybe it's cleared up now.

My buddy on Verizon was also receiving blank texts from me earlier today but they're fine now...that's what they get for being on verizon

Getting message failed but message keeps sending [asop mms / airrave]

So lately I have ran 2 different roms and at certain times i will send an sms message, and the phone will say "message sent failed", but the person says they get the message and my phone keeps trying to send the message and going through but says failed on my end
anyone else have this issue?
I have narrowed it down to probably asop mms apk or my airrave

I had the same thing happen the other day. I'm running Fresh 3.2, Handcent and I have an Airave. I think the Airave is the problem.

Yah I have the same exact problem....I have the new airvana airave....
This doesn't happen all the time...its just sometimes....although I cant pinpoint how or when it happens...
Its happening right now though...which sucks...

Same here, Sprint AirAve, Failed messages etc.
What to do??

Ok, I just called airave support and they ran me through the basic tests like testing my broadband connection and resetting my airave device. I've done this before so I'm pretty damn sure this wont help.
They did mention for the about two weeks Sprint has had a lot of airave outages and that Sprint is working on fixing it.

Ok here is a bad update:
So my problem still exists and I called up Sprint again. They go through factory resetting my phone (not sure what this means...since I am rooted with Ava ROM 9)....so I go through with the reset and they re-provision my phone (I think they changed the msid number or something else). Then they also did something to the airave... My phone still works but the airave doesn't. I can now, no longer make a call through the airave.
The Sprint tech support agent put in a ticket and would call me back tomorrow.....lets hope this gets fixed tomorrow.

I have also had this happen to me several times and I am totally stock. So if anyone gets an answer, let us all know. Thanks.

I would get this error when trying to send a message with content larger than 2mb, I have since upgraded my zone rom that allows for 5mb and my problem is gone.

Ok, but an average text message is not 2mb....

Ok, so they call back to get it fixed today....now when I turn on my Airvana unit and let it initialize the mobile light blinks amber, and the gps light blinks green as if it cant get a gps lock.
The tech support specialist again mentioned there was an airave outage.
There are also a few people on the sprint.com community site that are experiencing the same issues.... although I'm not sure if they are using evos or some other phone.

I've got an airave (newest model) unit with 2 EVOs in the home. My girlfriend constantly experiences this and she is running bone stock. I've got a stock rom rooted and have never experienced this problem. We've narrowed it down to the airave - she also has issues were sometimes an incoming call will not receive on her phone if she is already on it (call waiting).
Seems to me like these airave unit are having lots of problems... I ended up disconnecting mine and both phones act normal.

Ever since I got the NEW airvana this started happening to me, it only happens when im sending multiple sms to one person or multiple people. Says it cant send, but person im sending to says they get that message that isnt being sent like 20-100 times, the quick fix is a reboot of the phone. I got sick of it and last week called airave support and they opened a ticket which was monday last week. Called back thursday night b/c the modem light wont stop blinking and they told me there was a national outage on the new airvanas so she said by the next day everything should be resolved even the issue with the sms not sending.
Today is sunday and im not getting the issue anymore but i will keep texting heavy and see whats going on. although I gotta say sprint did give me a good return on my bill for this

Ok, I called airave tech support again and they said that the outage in my area should be fixed by 12am tomorrow....so I'll wait till tomorrow morning and see if it works again.

Ok, well the blinking amber "mobile" light is now a solid green....which I guess means the device is working....but when my EVO is connected and I try to make a phone call out it gives me the message "if you would like to make a collect call....." and if I try to send a text it just fails.
I called up Sprint again, they make me run through more tests with my phone...even one weird one where I had to disconnect the battery and hold the phone and the battery right next to the airave.....not sure what effect this has to fixing anything....but w/e I had spare time to waste . They did mention again that there was an airave outage. They tell me to reboot the airave and to let it sit for 2-4 hours since its going to re-provision....so thats what I am waiting for now.

idk, if this is related, but I have the same issue with sending texts in google voice. Although for me, I have the issue randomly when connected to a regular cell tower.

Ok another update....its really the same as my previous update.
So bascally the sprint tech never called me bac....so I called them back and got a different rep....the new rep goes through the same steps to get everything to work but still no luck. I still get the same error when I make a phone call. She did mention that there is a nationwide outage with voice calls with the airave and that 50% of customers are not able to make voice calls.
I am now using a samsung epic and I'm still having problems. So its not the evo or the epic with the issue, it has to be my number and/or (most likely) the airave and its service.
The funny thing is I have another line with a samsung a900 phone and I can make calls with that phone without any issues through the airave.

Ok, my airvana unit still doesn't work. Anyone else have a working Airvana unit..???
This is pretty horrible its been more than a week where my Airvana unit will not make phone calls....

I am also having loads of Airave (Airvana model) issues, on all 4 lines in my house... failed texts.. and calls.. etc.. I usually keep it unplugged now, and turn it on once a week to see if the issues have been fixed... Sux because when it works, it works AWESOME... But I have lots of friends and family who have gotten 20 or 30 texts from me at once.. It kinda makes me giggle, but it would suck if they were paying for them..

I also am expirencing the same problems as you all on brand new the new model (airvana?) its really annoying!
Running: GM6 final, nightlys, and Fresh seems to happen on all of them

I made numerous calls to airave tech and made like 4 tickets with them. Finally an engineer called me and asked me specifically when I'm getting the issue and what is the issue. I explained and for some reason these last week or so all my texts have been going thru smooth and no error clause codes, or unable to send message errors of any sort. I'm hoping they fixed the issue, I advise everyone that is having this issue to call them and attack them with phone calls.
Here's the direct number to airave support: 866-556-7310 call them and attack people its the only way they will fix it
