Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

since this is the hottest thread in the evo lte forum, i'm going to post my problem here.

lately, i have been getting the same text message from people multiple times. for example, today, i got the same text about 4 or 5 times within like 2 minutes. i have restarted my phone and asked my friend to restart their phone. even after the phone restarted, i got the same text again multiple times. anyone know what is causing this problem and/or how i can fix it?

I usually only get this from 1 person and it seems to happen with everyone they text so it seems to be more on the senders end

Does the person sending the message have an i phone?, I've had this happen a couple of times, both happens to be from people with an i phone

Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

I'm using GO SMS and I've been having these issues with group text/mms from anyone with an iphone. The go sms app also freezes any time a text is received. Quick responses are impossible, and this has resulted in my evo being turned into a frisbee, on multiple occasions. I don't even care about jelly bean, I just want to be able to respond to a text in less than 2 minutes.

Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

The problem of receiving the same text messages multiple times is a Sprint issue.

It's not due to your friend using iPhone and it's not due to you using Go SMS.

Two possible causes are - a problem with the cell tower that Sprint is using to connect to your phone, or a problem with the Airave system (not necessarily your Airave, but the whole or regional system - if you have Airave).

I tested and investigated this issue with Sprint a week ago. I received multiple messages from another Sprint user, and when I sent text messages to myself. Same thing happened with GO SMS installed and after it was uninstalled. Same thing happened with 2 different Airaves and with no Airave at all.

Documented here, where my user name is koam:

Sprint Community: Multiple duplicate text messages
Sprint Community: Issues with the Sprint Airave

While the problem has subsided, It happened once again yesterday. I haven't kept testing by sending myself texts.

From 1:00 -4:00 I will be watching Steelers football and will be unable to check updates. I trust someone here will be checking and keeping us informed.

Same thing here when texting with iPhone users

It's an I phone issue seeing that it only happens to me when an iphone user is texting me.

Whenever my brother sends me a text message from his iPhone it always comes through as a multi media message even though there are no pictures

I think it depends upon how they send the text from the iPhone. I get texts from coworkers who have iPhones. They send them to my work cell phone, which is a feature phone on AT&T. Sometimes it cones through as a text message, and sometimes its a multimedia message, even though its only a text.
