Hi,
Using the latest CM11 nightly and found that when I receive an SMS it is showing the number but not associating it with the correctly configured contact, so not showing their name.
It's fine when I send a message to them and they reply but if I clear the messages and they send me a new one it just comes up as their number. This happens in both the CM Messaging app and Google Hangouts.
Has anyone else found this?
Thanks

I've had a problem sending SMS messages to one (and only one) of my contacts. Unfortunately it is the contact I text the most, so it's a real pain.
When I first set up the phone, it synced all the contacts from gmail and facebook.
Unfortunately this particular contact had their number on Facebook as ++44 (0) 7123 123456, which my phone stored as +4407123 123456 (which is incorrect as when you have the international "+44" you need to get rid of the 0).
I changed it manually on the phone to +447123123456, and my friend changed it on Facebook.
Now I can compose new texts to this person and they send ok, but whenever I reply in the conversation thread my message fails to send.
When I check the message details on the failed message it says "To: +4407123123456", with the rogue zero back in place, even though I can't find that zero anywhere in the contact entry.
I've tried deleting the whole conversation thread, but that hasn't helped. This problem happens in the stock SMS app and also in Handcent.
Any ideas how I can fix this? The incorrect number must be stored somewhere, but I can't find it
I've recently installed Android on my HD2 and I absolutely love it. The one thing that isn't working 100% is the SMS inbox. Some messages appear 3-4 times and some are nowhere to be seen. Those are SMS I sent and received after installing so it's not a dodgy import. I'm using TyphooN CyanogenMod 7.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Are you talking about SMS or message in box of your xda account or your google mail inbox account? You don't call a text message as message inbox. Anything with message inbox that's an email. SMS is to use texting to send to another phone. MMS is to use picture or a short video clip to send to another phone.
My bad. In my own little world messages are SMS. Yesterday's SMS all seem to have been stored correctly. Maybe it was a one off. If anybody has any suggestions it would be much appreciated.

I can recommend using GO SMS Pro as opposed to the stock one,much better.
I've played around some more and installed Go SMS Pro, which is pretty cool. The problem with wrong SMS display persists though.
I think it's when I send SMS via the voice command of the google bar, they don't get stored correctly when I look at them in the history. For example I just sent a message via voice command but the content of the messages in Go SMS is wrong. It shows up with the same message text as the previous SMS I sent, or not at all. I haven't found anything on the problem anywhere. Does anybody have any Suggestions?
Dear All,
This problem is rather strange. I have an issue with my stock message app. It can receive and send SMS for the most part
The problem is, I can't seem to receive any SMS from one particular number only.
I can, however, send an SMS to that same number. It is receiving texts that are problematic.
I have checked with that other phone already, and it was able to send and receive SMS to another phone (not mine), without issue. Hence the problem appears to lie with my phone.
Of course, I can't say if there are other numbers from whom I can't receive SMS, but can only send, but this is something that I of course will not be able to know for sure.
Help please!

I am now using Hangouts, but it is not very intuitive. It does not have search capabilities. But at least when i use hangout as my default messaging app, i can receive text messages from that particular number. I tried going back to the stock messaging app, but the problem is still there and this problem is present each time i attempt to revert to the stock samsung app as the default messaging app. Hangouts is presently the default messaging app, so i can receive SMS from the particular number.
Hope you can help identify the issue here. Thanks.
I'm running Benzo ROM latest build. I'm using regular messenger for my texting. If I send a text to a contact there is no problem. However, when I receive a text it shows up correct as a notification. But inside messenger it uses a different contact. Any ideas what could cause this?
When I add another sms application to my Samsung S8 plus the messages I have sent do not appear in the new sms app. I only see the messages I received and I have gone in and made the new sms application the default app. I have tried using Google and Textra for sms with same results. Odd issue but I saw someone else posting about this on a different forum.
Anyone know why the messages I have sent are not showing up when trying to use a different sms application?
