Just thought I'd ask, I've upgraded to the latest Maintenance Release 1.56 and I am still loosing SMS messages. I don't get very many compared to most people, but today someone sent me a multi-part messages. I got parts (1/3) and (2/3) but never got (3/3) this is the same type of issue I was experiencing before the upgrade too.
I was curious is anyone else having these issues? The MR mentioned that it fixed an issue where SMS were not received due to FULL memory but I seriously don't that my phone memory is full, unless it's referring to more of a buffer, in which case it's apparently still not fixed.
Thanks
I had my phone off for about 1.5 hours while testing fresh rom 0.5 and received 13 texts when I turned it back on. None were missed.
no problems here

Yes I guess it is early I've fixed it now perhaps you could contribute your input on whether your getting all your txts? Thx!
I just had a friend send me a "long" 3 part txt all it send each part he ended with "END 1" "END 2" "END 3" based on character count. I only got parts 1 and 2.
Hah, sorry for being harsh.
Anyway, I haven't had any SMS problems both before and after the update. I've a friend in another state who has, however, and I believe after the update things were fixed.
Biggest plus in the update (and why I went through the hassle of leaving MoDaCo for Fresh) is the stereo sound output. I cant believe I didn't notice it was only sending mono sound.

That was a pretty jerk comment... especially considering you yourself had a typo in your response. Keep it civil please.
Anyone else having this problem ? The video plays a blank screen, then shows one frame from the 20 second MMS and then shows that same frame to the end.
Is no one else having problems playing MMS videos ?
Uhh I haven't gotten any video MMS so I couldn't tell ya.
I do know that youtube and other video works... but probably not the same thing, right?
No
I get an MMS from an iPhone and it really struggles to play.
I got a picture message the other day and it made me play it like a video, it was 19 seconds of black screen and the last second was the pic the person sent me.
My Acer liquid did exactly the same thing, i havent gotten an MMS on my nexus yet to test with

Hmm I wonder if they sent me a pic not a video ... never tested that !
Will send myself a video
I suspect MMS Video is quite rare (not helped by phone providers calling MMS 'picture messaging').
Constructing a full SMIL presentation sequence and sending it to an N1 would be interesting to watch... I'd be shocked if it worked even slightly.
just sent myself a video and I get a blank message and another message from O2 saying I can see the video online at www.o2.co.uk/m
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
Video at O2 is empty ... completely blank.
Probably means O2 think you don't have a phone that's capable of receiving it, so they filtered it out.

It sent a blank to start with ... fairly certain my settings are A-OK too.
Yeah they stripped the video, then sent you a message telling where it was.
You might have to get O2 to switch something at their end, or maybe using an alternative SMS app that allows you to pretend to be an N95 might work (although it might not - back in my iphone days I remember going through that pain with O2.. never again).

Yeah I am thinking of moving to T-Mobile but just recently discovered they have no signal in my place of work.
Vodafone has great coverage everywhere except my home (but they do have a femtocell as an option).

The video I received on the handset was the right length but blank.
Then I received a message on my handset saying the video was at o2.co.uk/m but that video was empty.
Hey everyone
I have the HD2 with the brand new official 1.66 rom and have only fiddled with a couple of icon changes and HD wall background. I have only noticed this since yesterday night, but my camera will now not focus. It doesnt matter how long I leave it to focus it just never happens, hence all of my pictures are blurry.
No other application seems to be affected, and I have looked at the camera lens and it looks clean.
Anyone have any ideas?
(Edit: Thats meant to say Camera Blur in the title - couldnt figure out how to edit it!)
Edit2: Yay I figured out how to edit the title!
Bump: Anyone got any ideas? I have a feeling that me mis typing the title will stop people viewing!
Well can you believe it. It has fixed itself. I have no idea what i have done though. It wouldnt focus on anything for nearly a day now, but i jsut checked it and it seems fine. How odd!
I've got a stock that hasn't received notification or started to download the 1st OTA update. Can I help out in any way with grabbing the OTA file? I know some people try to logcat when the device has already downloaded it but it hasn't been installed.
My device hasn't downloaded anything yet and I'd be happy to parse out any log information if I can get some directions on how.

Yeah. I had been running aLogcat since i picked up my replacement and having it save to the SD card every fifteen minutes and still managed to miss the update, but I think I figured out why.
I was turning on/off my phone alot, and every time start aLogcat the first save will be 15min from that point. So when the update downloaded to my phone, I installed it before that 15min was up. So what I'd recommend you do is go ahead and install aLogcat and have it save like I was. BUT before you install the update, manually save the log.
Ahh, good catch - okay, I'll be sure to snap a log manually.
Also to double check my settings:
Level: Verbose
Format: Raw - I changed this thinking it might be better
Buffer: Main
Then Periodic Save: 15mins
Just got the notification for the update!
I can't update yet because my battery is too low. I'm charging now. Once it's charged enough, I will do the steps you suggest.

Actually, you have to be logging before you get the notification. The notification is for install, not download. That probably happened in the background, at least it did for me. Thanks for trying, though!
Btw, completely offtopic, how are you liking your MT4G?

Crap. That would explain why I thought it wasn't right when I hit the update and it powered off.
I am liking it so far. It's a very nice phone and I'm appreciating the performance jump from my Sprint Hero. I'm happy I went with the MT4G instead of the G2.
Yes, I'm logging prior to the 48 hour time period. I fully suspect I haven't missed the download beginning.
Anyone know if logcat still saves to SD card when the screen is off? Not the device off.
Tonight I'm disabling WIFI and leaving the phone in an area where I know it gets strong reception. I'm logging every 15 mins.
Called back in again and my "update not received" form was done on the 13th and it "can take up to 7 days" from the time that was done. So, 2 more days before I return this and get a new phone. Hoping to catch an aLogcat (still running) of things if they do go through automatically.
In the dev section of the forum there is a way to force the update and root. It works I did it myself because i never got the update and I'm now rooted w/ update.

Yeah, I saw. Still fishing for the update link and I've got a few minor hardware defects on my phone too (vanity things, really -- bowed bezel, small chip on the bezel, bowing around camera lens) that the guy at the store wouldn't return it for because "well your phone works fine functionally". Waiting gives me the ammo to swap it anyhow.
Sorry for being vain, but I paid full retail for my phone so I'd like my shiny $450 toy to be about as perfect as it can be!

Update:
Did not receive last night but also haven't hit the 48 hour mark yet so I will be logging all day today and hoping for the best.
Can we confirm the link will show up in logcat? (=

If you're in your remorse period they don't need *any* excuse/reason to exchange it. If you're not, you should be able to get tech support to put a note in your account to exchange it for not having been able to recieve the OTA (they are aware some people just aren't getting it).

Return, yes, for a re-stock fee. They would not exchange it at the store for a minor cosmetic defect, though. I already tried.
TMo store or other?
Most stores have a no questions return policy - can you simply do that and then get another somewhere else?

T-Mo store. Only one around I've seen so far, and AFAIK most places won't accept a return they didn't sell as it comes out of their sales numbers.

I meant return to the store purchased from. TMo won't let you just return it - I thought that was allowed by their terms and conditions?

They tried to get me to pay a re-stock fee once, but I think it was just $10 and that guy was a douchebag who was overruled by his manager when I made a stink about it.
Could always go with the good old "I'm taking my ball and going home" routine. Either they exchange the device for another and make you happy, or you are returning it completely and walking out the door with your cash. Preferably get a Manager around. If they still won't exchange it, I'd get my money back, then go to another T-Mobile store, complain about the service at the other for a possible discount, and re-purchase.
Just got the update notification five minutes ago. Had alogcat running all day, saving every 15. I've had my phone by me most of the night, I know the time span it came in so if there's a link it should be easy to find. Too fraking tired to look now unfortunately, I'll search through in the morning, but does anyone know just what I should be looking for?

I'm not sure but I believe the file comes from google/android.
Do you know regex?
Possibly a search for .android. or .google. might be a start.
Grats on this - hopefully it shows up in there. I've been logging for the last two days and still ahve not received the OTA, thinking about doing a hard reset but I don't want it to start downloading before I get logCat running.. Thinking about how to hardreset, put the phone where it gets no signal, and installing logcat frmo the SD card. Not sure how to do this. Not sure how I would install an ADK without downloading something to do so.
The phone stock can't install from SD card can it? What if I move an app to SD card now, prior to hard reset?

How many times have you tried to do it? I can say that I have had issues with mine (and others from work) getting the darn thing to accept registration at different points. Eventually it took it. Agree it's a PIA at times! You might try skipping the video. Don't think I've ever watched it myself.

Even though it is new... I would try 8 failed boots and then power on holding"n" to get the wipe data screen...
Then try it again.
