Motorola Droid 2 :: Old Text Msgs Reappearing Like New?
Aug 29, 2011
is that google has something to do with this. I have google backup (it just copies the text to my gmail account) - it's good to have history, at least for me. However, something is really strange. Every once in a while, a bunch of old text messages come up - and keep going. These things only have a time stamp on them so I can only tell that they aren't new by their content! They don't get logged as new in my gmail.I have used a backup app to delete them all. No good, they keep popping up.So, this is either a "feature" of the droid or motorola or verizon or google. Other straing things happen in droid OS, so I don't completely discount that but my feeling is that google "backup" is doing more than just that.
I am using Droid Razr ICS for some reason today none of my text messages will delete. I am using the Razrs text messaging app when I try to delete I get all the correct prompts to delete any message. When I select the last prompt to delete, you go back to the message list. The actual message appears to be deleted but you still see all the people or group you sent to or received from, which makes no sense to me. I have tried deleting and rebooting the device no change.
I have been having this problem lately where my txt msgs are being duplicated when they come in. I am using a 3rd party txt app (Handcent). It's happened on basically everyone that sends me a txt and it's annoying
I have two Time Warner RoadRunner email addresses set up on my Droid. Inexplicably, sometimes when I delete emails, they reappear as a new incoming email either the same day or even many days after deletion.Sometimes, I can delete the same email multiple times before it stops reappearing.I do not want to change the setting on my RoadRunner set-up to "delete after reading" because then I will not see these emails when I get home from work and login on my laptop or my desktop.Somehow, the Droid cannot seem to distinguish that an email has already been read and deleted.
After finding out photos had been deleted I see that text messages have been deleted also. I would like to undelete or recover text msgs. What are my options?
Is there a way to deactivate the enter key on storm2? I end up sending text and blackberry messenger msgs before I am ready because I accidentally hit the return key...
Does anyone know how (or if you can) get SMS text msgs to display under "Messages" on the home screen? I just upgraded from the Curve to the Storm2 and I am used to being able to see a portion of the unread SMS msg on my home screen..
Is there a way to turn the text-to-speech options on only for caller ID and text messaging? I don't want the phone to tell me every button I push or screen menu that I'm on. I want it only to read me texts and say who the call is from before ringing.
Droid Razr 16, google speech app - when using speech app to dictate text mesage, and more than one sent to same person in short period of time (5-10 minutes), the first text message is resent rather than the second text message which has been dictated and appears in the confirmation/edit window. Verizon Wireless tech support was stumped, and no help in the online motorola tech support either.
My current text messages are being combined with old text messages, creating messages that don't reflect what I sent. The recipients of my texts are very confused....as am I when I get there response.
I just completed a system upgrade on my Mototola Droid Razr. It now vibrates on any text input (Text or internet input). Phone dialer is ok, just all other word input. I have unchecked or checked everything that was normal under the old Android version. Currently using 4.1.2 android version.
Recently I have been having a problem with text message that I receive from my employer being cut off. Typically the first portion of the message will be cutt off and replaced with a single number in brackets. This isn't a message size issue, and the messages are not being split, they are simply missing much of the information. I ma using a relatively new Droid X (owned it less than a month). I only have this issue when receiving messages from my employer, no other texts have been affected. My employer does not have this issue with any other employees, only me. There are a number of other employees who have other Droid models and have no problems whatsoever receiving the messages. One co-worker actually forwarded me a message that he received fine on his Droid (Eris?) but I had the problem with. I was able to receive the forwarded copy in full from him. The message server that my employer uses sends out simultaneous messages to as many as 70 people at a time, and I am the only person who has ever had this problem.
I bought 2 of these phones, the second one for my daughter. She can send a 7 page, 800 character text (and more) without a problem. My phone won't allow me to send more than one page at a time with a limit of 132 characters. I called verizon, and no one could help me. I did find out that it has to do with the difference between SMS and MMS messaging. I was told that the Droid 3 is set-up already with expanded or extended MMS messaging. The only way I can send a text with longer than 132 characters is if I attach a picture to it, as it changes it to MMS. I have checked every option of the phone and nowhere can you manually change it.
I dropped my DROID which caused the screen to go black, so I can't see the text messages that have accumulated. I've upgraded to a new RAZR, which is mostly great so far. But....how can I get the messages from the DROID to the RAZR?
For some reason I can't reply to a text from Facebook and have it show up on my status. I can post a new status, but not reply to a status. My HTC could do it, my sons evo can do it but I can't figure out why the droid3 won't do it
I have done extensive research and have yet to find a way to do it. Handscent, Group SMS... Chomp..ect.. Can rooting the phone make it possible? There are programs that say that is how to do it..I'm in dire straights here for my work senario..otherwise I will sadly have to switch..
I was having trouble with my contacts contact directory running extremely slowly and VZW support suggested resetting my phone.I did it and now my phone underlines all text in TXT and email messages using multi-touch keyboard. It does not do it in Swype. Does anyone know how to stop it? I tried pulling the battery out and restarting the phone a few minutes later. I also tried switching to Swype and then switching back to multi-touch keyboard.
I am not getting notifications from incoming text messages. I have to open the stock texting app, and I will immediately see the unread messages, and at that time I get the 'Droid' sound and the text icon appears in the notification bar. I am running a totally stock X2 with 2.3.3. I have no other text app installed other than the stock app, and I would rather keep it that way.
I am having trouble sending an audio text. In a new text message, I can "insert" audio, and hit "OK" and then send, but it does not actually send it. It does not give me a message that it has NOT been sent but it does not appear on the screen as a sent message..
Which ones do you like? Why do you like them or not like them?I'm currently using Handcent but don't like that the phone number doesn't show up with the name at the top...this means that I don't know whether I am texting my husbands work phone or home cell phone most of the time unless I look at the context of the previous texts.
How do I assing an mp3 to text notification. I have sent 3 mp3's to my phone. If I want to assign one of these to a call (or contact specific call) they show up in my ringtones choices. But if I go to "messaging" "settings" "Select ringtone" only the original phone ringtones are there. NOT one of my mp3's.
On two occasions now, I've sent a text message to a group using the Verizon message app. The first time, some contacts were in my contact list and others weren't. I entered their numbers putting a space after them. I send the message, and see the following: sent to some.
I then added all numbers to my contact list. The second time I sent a text, I just kept going back to the contact list and adding each person to the text. I sent it out, and again it says: sent to some.Why can I not send a group text?
Just received my Turbo and installed Textra. Using Voice to Txt, will only send an Audio File. This is the same with GOSMS and Stock Messaging App. Want to send sms only. Is there a setting I am missing?
