I have a few contacts that are blacklisted that occasionally sent texts and photos. I can see the texts/calls in the spam folder, but if one of the blacklisted contacts tried to send a photo(MMS) I'm not able to receive it unless I remove them from blacklist. Often times I have no idea that an MMS was sent unless the sender notifies me. Is there a way to change this?
Other phones I've had in the past (LG, Samsung) will save all messages, photos included, in the spam folder

Does any have this problem.
I sent an SMS to a friend in my contacts. He said he never received it. And now I just received a phone call from someone who did receive it. He told me he keep getting them and wants it to stop.
So is there an issue with the SMS sender on this XDA. Most of my SMS go through no problem.
Your thoughts?
is this only sms messeges or does it happen if you call the contact aswell ?
No, just SMS.
Also I receive SMS from an estate agent for houses, which I have subscribed to, but the name of the sender is someone else from my contacts. Do you think the software needs updating.
well i had issues like that but it turned out that i was my mistake
when i typed in the contacts
if you can see both the contact name and the phone nr and see in your contacts that there are nowhere where you can see any connection between the two then maybe i've never heard about it before
also make sure you have choosen your country in localizing in settings
I've scoured the market for hours and can't find crap. I've tried "Delete old messages" and "SMS Cleaner Free"
I want a way where I can select x amount of SMS messages from a given contact and delete them. For example...I could choose a contact, and delete all SMS messages from 2 months and older.
These apps I listed above ALMOST do it, but not quite. You can delete entire threads from a specific contact, however you can't choose a contact and delete certain SMS messages associated with that contact.
So for example if I had 450 sms's from my wife, and I wanted to cleanup just the past 2 months of ONLY hers and no other persons.
Any thoughts?
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 receive once a day sms spam (probably from my provider) that doesn't have a phone number attached - only a name. Putting fragments of text into spam filter won't help, since it's different every time. Any way to easily filter such spam messages (without removing messages from my network - Orange?).
Is there a way in the stock messaging app, or is there a specific messaging app available in the play store where I could:
Draft a txt and then send to multiple recipients without each recipient being able to see the other? Basically the same thing as sending an email to multiple people via BCC option.
Would be handy for business purposes. I don't care if they see my contact. I just don't want them to see eachothers contact since not everyone I'd send to would know the other (and/or want their contact information shared).
Obviously I could copy and paste the same message to multiple people via individual txt msgs... but being able to send a group txt would be way more efficient.
Thanks!
If you go into the settings of the messaging app there should be an option to group text messages as MMS. Just uncheck that. At least that's how it works with hangouts for SMS.
