Phantom Voicemails - Still have them

I have been having issues with the Phantom Voicemail issue on all the Cyanogen Mod roms.
I have tried changing the voicemail phone number through the My Carrier options, that did nothing. Tried clearing out the Dialer Storage, that did nothing.
I have spent roughly 3 hours trying to find a fix. Does anyone know of anything?
I use Google Voice, so the dual notification icons get annoying, not to mention the fact that this one doesn't disappear, and reappears if I reboot my phone, or go in and out of service.
If there is a file that I can remove to have it stop, and allow me to just use Google Voice, that would work great too, as of now, I just want the darn thing gone.

You have to download an app and black list it. There's a post around here somewhere. I'm on my phone so I can't find it. But look for Sprint's VVM. There's a link to the app in the OP.

The two apps I can think of are RedList, and SPC (Super Private Conversation). SPC is the bigger of the two apps (I think around 2-3mb?), but I don't think the free version of RedList lets you disable the notification icon (I could be wrong? Someone feel free to correct me).

Is there anything other then an application that can block the notification message?
Removing a file or changing a file perhaps?

No clue, though I'd wager it has to be done on the code level.
I don't think I've ever actually ran into this bug. I gather it notifies you of voicemails despite not actually having any? Odd.

It looks like this, with my phone number edited out.

No matter what the time it is, this was on first boot up. Then it "notified me" again, at 11:17 PM.

It's a known bug on Cyanogenmod...

Is there a fix for this?

Did you send a large amount of messages?

This happens when you send too many text within a short amount of time. Just restart the phone and you can continue sending your messages again without interference. If it starts popping up again you can just restart again.

This is what happens when you booty-text half the girls in your address book.

Eh, the limit was actually reduced to 30 messages every 30 minutes in Jellybean from 100 / 30 in ICS. Kind of low IMO, especially when using desktop SMS services - very easy to send multiple messages.
Also, just a poor implementation of the feature overall - should have options to dismiss the warning forever, per app, or at least for an X hour period.

This wasn't an opinion question. I just want to know if there's a mod for this

Everything on the internet is an opinion question. Try this:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32263-fix-jelly-bean-sms-warning-dialog/

CM10 allows this setting to be changed but stock Android has it locked at 30 texts per 30 minutes, which is absurdly low for someone who texts frequently or has a girlfriend who doesn't ever stop texting you :laugh:
I'd like to see the ability to edit this setting in a future stock release but in the mean time if it is really bothering you, check out a custom rom that features the ability to manually adjust this setting.

[Q] [TMO] Group Messaging Support?

So I've had my phone a little over 2 weeks now and still have not figured out how to get group MMS to show up in a single thread vs individual threads.
Most of my coworkers use iPhones and use group messages to coordinate in the field and its a huge drawback for me not being able to reply to all. My Nexus 4 handled this just find but I haven't found a way to enable it within the stock SMS app.
If anybody has a work around or directions to what I'm missing I'd be extremely grateful.
Thanks!

New Hangouts with sms/mms support. Stock app sucks for multi/prop/carrier devices. The only carrier app I have found that works well, almost perfect, between synced multiple devices even, is Verizon messages. If your trying to reply to all, why would you even want to show in individual threads... this is part of the problem. Enable group conversations, even in stock it shows multiple people in one thread for me.

The stock app from my Nexus 4 worked great and had the options to make group messages MMS and show all recipients in a single thread. On the T-Mo (so far as a I know, I think AT&T as well) there are no options within the stock messaging app for ANY group options.
I've seen people switch to using a 3rd party app like textra but I'm a bit disappointed that single-thread group MMS was not included for us (T-Mo).

Stock apk, a all I have is this. Works fine in one thread, multiple people. Pictures too. Though, no iPhone contacts. Verizon messages work with everything for me. I'm pretty sure the iPhone thing had been a long standing problem. I once remember using a modded apk that converted all to compatability(mms+). It also had a dark theme, looked exactly like stock,

S8 Text Messaging on At&t

Beating my brain. I have noticed when I receive a lengthy text message it does not show the entire message. It gives me the option to "view all". I have searched the forums and the phone and can't seem to find an option to show the entire text. Is this just and At&t thing or Samsung?

Just an at&t thing need to download a different sms app

I'm with Rogers and I have the same issue.
I'm going to avoid the Samsung apps...seems like the best thing from the issues I'm having...

Thank you all for the quick replies ☺

Even though I have unlimited data I assume there is no way to her hd videos over text

Hangouts app

But if the other person isn't using Hangouts then it still is horrible

Facebook app does it as well. Most people have it because Facebook forces it via mobile IF you want to message people..

Yaata
Textra
Pulse
Are all amazing texting apps!
Yaata is the most customizable...And my favorite - also has chat-heads, but Android O won't support chat-heads, as of now - But we still have about a year on that.
Textra is the easiest and looks GREAT, and it's been around for a long time (at least since my S3 days, probably longer). Maybe a little smoother than Yaata, but not as many options.
Pulse is new (ish), but seems to have great features.

Facebook messenger is my go to default for sms. Mostly because of the chat heads and integration with all my FB messages

If you use Google photo you can create a link to your video in Google photo then share the link on stock messaging app with a few simple key strokes . Simple for me since I don't need all the bells and whistles from other message apps, nor do I care to familiarize myself with a new message app.

MMS Not Working In Anything Except Samsung Messages

Hi,
I saw many topics about this, but still haven't been able to fix it on my phone. The only app that seems to work with MMS (sending or receiving) that I've tried is Samsung Messages. I've tried Textra and Android Messages (google), neither work. I've been on and off trying to get them to work since I got the phone in April, to no avail or luck. I can't even get the MMS to work when I disable WiFi, so I'm not sure what is going on. My carrier is Verizon. I've also tried setting the MMS mode to Legacy (from the default of System), but that didn't help.
Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? One thing I haven't tried is uninstalling Samsung Messages (or disabling it via BK Disabler) as I'd prefer to not lose all my chat history. I'm not looking for other texting apps, would like to use Google's or Textra over Samsung's.
Thanks in advance!

Check out screen shot. A couple of bucks for premium features. This is my SMS app for my S8+ and Pixel XL.

Just tried, also not working for MMS. Texting works. Not receiving or sending MMS, whether on Legacy or System for the MMS APN type.
Something is definitely blocking other apps from working.

Sorry, it's work perfect at my S8+. Don't now who to help you.

Tried resetting network settings, cleared system cache, disabling Samsung Messages (+ service worker), rebooting, still doesn't work. :/ I'm starting to think it's an issue specific to being on Verizon's network. Could it be something on their end that I need to call in about?
