Re: Replies to Group texts are not always getting delivered
Got my phone maybe 3 weeks ago and have stock everything. Was looking at my daughters phone and noticed that several replies that I had made to Group Texts were not on her phone. Seems that this has been going on for at least two weeks. I thought that people were just ignoring me (inferiority complex). Read somewhere to start each day by Force Stopping the Samsung Messaging app and then power off and power on the phone. This seemed to work for the morning, but now some group text replies are missing again. Anyone else having issues with their replies to group texts not getting delivered? All three of us on the group text are on the same ATT account.

So, I've got an annoying issue with my DHD at the moment and am curious to see if anyone else is having it (can't find any threads yet!).
It seem's like when I restart or power-cycle my phone it starts to re-send random SMS messages from either the same day or previous day.
For example, yesterday and today I have had to restart my phone and on both occasions it re-sent SMS to 3 of my contacts. Mind you these messages were sent successfully in the first place... I could understand if it was trying to re-send SMS's which didn't make it through.
Anyone else noticing this issue?
I have experienced this once.
Sent a message on Friday 5th to my wife. On Sat 6th my phone starts lagging horribly so I restart it and on reboot it sends that text to my wife again...rebooted several times after and it didn't send it again though...
I had this issue with my Desire HD, I used the 'transfer data' app to transfer old contacts and sms messages from my blackberry 8900 curve, and a couple of days later when I restarted my phone, it started sending old messages from my new phone, complete with replies!
Turning of the phone stopped it, but then it would do it again when I restarted the phone again.
3 - 400 sms message later, I deleted all old sms message from my phone, and since then it's not done it.
I put it down to the 'transfer data' app, had anyone else used this to transfer old messages?
Nope. I started from scratch with my messages.
Are you seeing your re-sent messages on the conversations?
I only saw a message that was firstly unsuccesfully sent re-sent on reboot one time, nothing else.
For me, it took the original message and moved it further down the conversation thread to when it resent. It was not duplicated.
I live in the states and my dad lives in the Czech Republic. Until recently I never had problems texting him or receiving texts from him. A couple days ago after talking to him I found out that he has not be receiving any texts from me for at least a month. My phone shows that the texts send out and I receive texts from him. I thought maybe it had something to do with the rom I was running so I through a few others and tried sending out texts to see if I would get a response with no luck. I started out using Mikg 3.11 which I had used for a long time and never had issues with. Recently I was running Digital Karma v6, this is when I realized that something was not working. Any ideas would be appreciated.
I want to start off by saying I have 1 or 2 group messages that go on throughout the whole day, every day. When I first got the Verizon S7 edge, I had zero issues for the first three days. All of the sudden, at least once a day, there is an issue receiving and sending group messages. I can't link it to anything specific besides it happening most when the group chat is most active. 11 people in the chat are sending multiple messages at a time and then I'll send a message at the same time and i realize mine is not sending and then I stop receiving everyone else's messages. If I go to the individual participants chat in my texting app, there will be a bunch of messages that are downloading. This has happened to me in the past with other phones, but its usually linked to having bad service at a certain time and simply turning mobile data on and off will fix the issue. I cant link it to anything this time, it happens randomly. It doesn't matter where I am, if I have 1 bar or 4 bars, if wifi is on/off, bluetooth is on/off. The messages eventually start coming in, but I dont know what causes that to happen either. I could restart the phone 4 times before it helps. The only thing I can say is it happens most often when the group chat is most active. I'll also mention that this wasn't an issue in the first 3-5 days of using the phone. Below are the steps I've already taken to try and resolve the issue.
1. Wifi on/off
2. Mobile data on/off
3. Restarting the phone
4. Tried 4 different texting apps - Hangouts, google messenger, samsung messenger, verizon messenger
5. Factory reset
6. New SIM card
7. Swapped the phone out for a brand new one. Issue started again with the new one after 3-5 days.
8. Enabled every app that was disabled
9. Activated/deactivated advanced calling
10. Called Verizon tech support - We replicated the issue and thought it was due to "delete old messages" being turned on in the settings. Tech support thought the phone was trying to delete old messages at the same time I was receiving a bunch of texts and everything would get stuck. Everything seemed fine after changing that, but it happened again a few hours later.
11. I've run out of options
I had the Note 5 before this and had zero issues with that phone and I've never had an Iphone.
Please help

Use textra app from play store

Hey everyone. I have the T-Mobile V20 rooted using jcadduono's method. Recently I have been getting duplicate text messages. This has happened with text messages from a few different people but the latest was when I installed the PayPal app and they sent me my security code via SMS. Now I am getting the same text sent to me at random times, 18 times in the last day. Also, when other people send me texts, sometimes I get them and sometimes I get the text from PayPal. I'm pretty sure it's not on PayPal's end since this has happened with other numbers as well.
I have tried clearing the data from the stock messaging app, clearing cache and dalvik in twrp, disabling the stock messaging app and using Signal instead, and a full restore.
Has anyone else had a similar issue? I searched around and could not find a solution.
Edit: Nevermind. It was one of my apps, Root Call Blocker.
Hey I have been having a similar problem. A few days ago I was texting with somebody and they just stopped responding. However we WERE sorta fighting about some stuff so I didn't think anything of it. But a couple days later I started getting ALL of the messages that she'd sent and I'm getting all of them TEN FOLD. like 20 copies of the same message. Then I started getting the same **** from other people too. So I figured it had to be something with my dirty santified v20. So I came to XDA and low and behold here is this guy talking about RCB. Well yesterday I had remembered that I have a license for Root Call Blocker Pro by Fahrbot PRI. This HAS GOT to be what the problem is. So I'm gonna uninstall RCB and try to contact Fahrbot and direct them to this thread. Thanks dude for coming here and reporting your problem. Possibly we will find some more people showing up here and eventually get Fahrbot to fix his ****. Now to uninstall and see if it works.
Edit: This did end up being the problem and solution. After removing Root Call Blocker Pro the phone was still getting weird texts for a while but they weren't multiple copies of the same messages. I booted into recovery and wiped the delvik and cache for good measure. When I booted back up the phone was still getting old messages, however they slowed to an eventual stop. I contacted Fahrbot and informed them that I suspect their program has some bugs on android 7.0 on the v20. When your phone receives an SMS under normal conditions, it will send back to the service provider an ACK response. If the phone service provider sends out a handful of SMS messages to the phone but the phone sends nothing back acknowledging that each message was received, then the provider automatically assumes 'did not receive ACK from phone. phone must be off. resending until acknowledged.
Ditto
I registered just to reply to this thread! I, too, had RCB installed on 7.1 nougat, but kept getting repeated texts or delayed texts. Like, DAYS delayed. Sprint could not figure out what was wrong; but luckily I found this thread, uninstalled, and now my texts are working again.
And RCB was my favorite call blocker :crying:
