Google Voice issues..

Its a little frustrating because I use it to text and I've been having this problem ever since I flashed a new rom. I'm using fresh's latest version.
My problem is that when I send a text to someone using google voice I don't get the replies. I also delete conversations and they keep coming back. I also can't delete the conversations that are in my trash.
I also have similar issues with google talk in regards to the deleting issues. I delete a conversation and when they reply back to me I see the while conversation that I just deleted. Anyone have any idea?

Handscent Android group chat like iPhone

Well here it is my fellow androids. We asked for it and Handcent fell through. We should all thank Handcent and their developers for this new big update. Keep in mind this app is still in Beta stage. However, I tested it for a couple of days and I was able to chat with my fellow iPhone lovers. I was also able to chat with verizon Galaxy Nexus, Thunderbolt and LG revolution. I havent had a chance to chat with none Verizon phones. You guys will be our testers. Please list all bugs here and Ill forward the list to the developer. So far there are two bugs with this build. The first bug is double notifications on group mms and the second one is blurry background images with Droid Razor phones
Setup:
1. You must make this app default messaging app for all MMS and SMS.
"settings"->application settings->Default Messaging Application-> All(SMS&MMS)
2. You must enable Thread Group Conversation. Its all the way down in application settings
"settings"->application settings->group messaging->check Thread Group conversation
3. MMS retrieval should be set to Auto unless you want to download each group message.
4. You might experience some lag as the group mms pour in one after another. I think this is normal cuz I do experience it on my Razor maxx using the stock app since it has this this feature built in. In addition, I asked my freind with iPhone 4s if he experiences lag when all these group messages pour in and he said yes. Sometimes he cant touch his phone until all the messages have been received
5. Be gentle on me if I missed any bugs. Im already in the Dog house in my wifes book for spending too much time on this project. This is the reason why the developer is releasing the app for public feedback.
File got updated:
Fixed double notification
fixed some bugs
This file not in market, so you guys are Handcent beta testers.

Loving the capability! It seems to be working well.
Have one question/bug. Some replies say "Me:" and they go to the group. Some replies say "Me to name: and they are going individually to the group it appears.
I did not do anything different I don't think on any of the replies but I may be missing something or this could be a bug.
Thanks for the great feature!

What phone are you using? Can you send a screen shot. In other words when you reply to message, you are replying to yourself also? I had that at first was fixed. I wonder if each phone will have that bug

so testing it with cm9 on HTC evo 3D (sprint) doesn't seem to want to send group messages at all. Just get that continuous loading symbol and never sends. I'll test it on stock first and see if it is the problem with the rom and report back

I'm also experiencing this, Droid Charge on Gingerbread.

The file has been update. Hopefully fix your issue.

So far I have had it "break" and resort to sending separate messages once. I have three theories as to why...
It may have been due to not completely removing my old Handcent beta first.
I was Texting with friends pretty frequently, and I noticed if I exit the thread and re-enter it would "convert to MMS", Maybe it drops out of MMS if you send several texts in a row?
The thread I was sending to had my google voice number in it, so I was essentially sending messages to myself at the same time.
Sometimes if you have a group message with say Joe Smith as a participant and a separate thread with Joe, getting the group text will show a notification for the separate thread and you have to do "mark as read" to fix it.
I am on a HTC Thunderbolt BTW.
Did not try the updated file yet, downloading now.

It works well for me.

Have not had the issue where the group message sends separate again, but this one is still happening...

An issue happens when you send texts too quickly it sends you back to inbox and doesn't display the messages. From what my friends tell me it displays something weird in their group chat. I have to visually see it to confirm. Love that it actually works though

can you send me a screen shot please and Ill forward to developer.

How is it supposed to work? I tried it with my friend who has an iPhone but it didn't send messages via Internet service but normaly as SMS messages. Friend with iPhone tried to pull his sim card out of phone with no succes. Does it need any special settings to make it work?
Anyway I don't care much cause I have all my SMS free I just wanted to try that function.
I use HC Talk service to chat with my girlfriend everyday so there's no problem about functionless HC Service

In the first post is suggests going to settings>application settings>default messaging application>set it to all sms and mms.
Then settings again>application settings>scroll all the way down>check the thread group conversation box.
Then should work

Text Messages - Can send but cannot Receive

Started a day ago when I was on LiquidSmooth v03_14 so yesterday moved to v03_31 but that did not fix the problem. Prior to the problem, Dragon Assistant would read out loud my SMS Rec'd and Calendar events. That stopped and the option for SMS to be read was not even there. What is additionally strange is that the Calendar events which are there are no longer being read. Messenger is not receiving the incoming SMS.
Changed message apps, removed all messages that were on the phone, and cleared cache.
Anyone else having this issue and/or does anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this?

This doesn't belong in this forum. You should post to that ROMs thread or the Q&A.

Unable to send messages

Hi All,
Just got my moto x yesterday. After setting it up, everything was working fine. This morning I tried to send a hangout message and text message using moto voice and it wouldn't send. I used the command "OK Moto X, send text to (so and so). It would ask what's the message? I would tell it " hey what's up " (for example) and then it goes to a Google search with blank results. Everything else works fine (music on spotify, YouTube, etc.) Its simply not working with the voice to text commands. Any help would be appreciated as I looked all over the phone, and on Google and couldn't find answer. I also attached a screenshot of the behavior

You Are Not Alone
I got the same problem. Given that I can't find squat about this problem on the web, I wanted to chime in and let you know that there is someone else with this problem. If I find anythong, I will share posthaste.

Humm wish I could say that I'm having the same issue but it works for me
Okay Moto X send a hangouts message to (.....) is this working?

Nope. Same behavior. If I do (OK moto x send hangout/text message to so and so "hey whatsup") it reads it and asks me if I want to send, I say yes and it shows " yes" in the search bar like I've attached in the screenshot

I get failed to send message on Textra almost everyday from normal use It seeems like I lose reception often? So many bugs with this phone

Group text

Does anyone know how to get the group texts to say who all is in the group? Instead of just getting a message from the sender as a mms without anyone else's name. Thanks in advance

I'm not sure about this specific problem, but MMS in general apparently works better with the Textra app on the Axon 7 rather than the stock one so maybe worth trying that.

In a group message, I get the messaged from each individual person instead of one message with everyone in it. Does that make sense? Lol I don't really know how to explain it. I'll check that app out though
Sent from my ZTE A2017U using XDA-Developers mobile app

This seems to be the way the Axon 7's messaging client is written. I also see every individual reply to a group text as an individual separate message from that person, with no indicator of others that the message is addressed to. This is annoying, because if other don't reply, I would never know it was a group conversation. I was thinking of installing a third-party messaging app because of this. For something simple, there's "Messenger" from google, in the play store. For something fancier, there are a lot of choices out there.

Thanks for the suggestion. I think I'm going to give YAATA a try, actually. I've tried most of the others at some point in the past.

Textra is my go to. It's light with all the options I need.
Sent from my ZTE A2017U using Tapatalk

all you guys that have textra working, can you add unknown phone numbers to "new" contacts? when i click the #circle, and then +contact icon, i only get a a search existing contact to add it to, i cannot add to a brand new contact. the stock messenger does it fine...

B27 should support group messaging though...no need other apps anymore
