Motorola Droid 2 :: Still Receiving MULTIPLE Copies Of The Same SMS?
Sep 22, 2012
I know that with the Gingerbread update the duplicate SMS issue was supposed to be fixed but it is still horrendous on my phone. I just received 10..10 copies of the same SMS. This is not a one off occurrence either. Almost daily I receive multiple copies of the same message. I know I'm on a Droid 2 and am due for a much needed upgrade but am trying to hold out for a Droid 5 (if there is even to be one). In other words I'll probably wait until the beginning of 2013 before I pull the trigger on a new phone. Is it safe to say there are no more software updates coming? I know it won't be ICS or anything but any bug fixes? The last time I reset my phone was approximately 60 hours ago, it just froze so had to hard reset.
So I noticed that when I send an email through Exchange. I end up sending anywhere between 3 and 15 emails. and also get a "message not sent" display at the notifcation bar. My other incoming emails (except gmail) I get between 10 and 20 copies of emails coming in. I have tried restarting, reinitializing the email clients. etc with no avail.
I've noticed that everytime you install Zumocast and setup your server, it gets added to the left Pane of your Zumocast Server.I now have 4 copies of my server as I have re-installed Zumocast serval times. Is there a way to clear out the old in-active servers?
I have noticed that I am receving the same text 2,3 even sometimes 4 times in a row. In one text coversation this morning with my wife, about 60% of the texts she sent me were received multiple times. (she on Dx2). This happens randomply and with texts received from friends on other carriers. This started happening sometime after one of the last updates, but I have not had a lot of extra time to research it. I did search the forum but found no similiar problems.
I use iCloud for my calendars on my iPhone 4S.However, there are 28 Birthdays calendars listed under "other" on the phone that I cannot figure out how to delete.I have already tried turning off iCloud syncing and deleting the calendars information.This has no effect.I have seen similar problems addressed here, but not exactly this one. Please help, it is an exceptionally annoying situation.
I use notes quite frequently to write down ideas. Everytime I start the app and add to a note, another copy of the note is saved. It's getting so I have 10 and 12 copies of some notes.
I do not have sync notes on iTunes checked and I don't think it's happening becasue of my iCloud backup becasue I have notes switched OFF.
I have been getting multiple repeat texts on my Blackberry Curve 8530. For instance, I will get as many as five or six copies of the exact same message within a few minutes of each other. The people who are texting me are only sending the message once, so I assumed the problem was on my end. I reset the phone about three times per week, but the problem does not improve or get worse. I have even pulled the battery after it happens, but it continues after it reboots.
On a 5230, I've tried out sending photos to flickr. Peculiarly it seems to send at least 10 copies of every image.I'm watching it do it right now - uploading goes up to 100%, shows just one picture uploading. Then resets to 0% and starts it all over again.Status shows 1 pending, 0 failed permanently (unless I delete the upload).
Photos on my wife's iPhone 5S take up a lot of space ( iCloud memory full, can't update phone). It How do I trim it down? I moved a lot of her shots to my macbook, then deleted most of them (except the ones she wanted available) but it didn't seem to work.
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
MNew To Droid after finally giving up my beloved Blackberry. Is there a way that I can add the contacts of an email that was sent to me and 4 others without having to do each one individually?
Netflix was downloading, and I hit Angry Birds to update and now I have multiple instances of those 2 apps downloading, 45 instances to be exact. Needless to say its killed my battery charge and its currently running hot. Can anyone please tell me how to stop the downloads? I have tried turning the phone on and off, I pulled the battery, I have tried to an FC to Market and the Download Manager, I tried clearing the cache on those 2, I even tried a cache partion wipe, nothing works.The downloads just start right back up. I have the phone on the charger, and I have it on Wifi to help speed the downloads along since I have not been able to stop them.
I currently have 3 razr maxx's signed up for the FBN. I was wondering if Matt or Mark if that in any way effects a persons chances of being selected. I was wondering if moto would simply see this like a person had 2 replacement devices, or how it works? Of course I have my main device set as my main device.
my biggest complaint about Gingerbread reared it's ugly head this past weekend. The lack of "+" symbol in the "to" field of the stock text messaging app.
I wanted to text all of the people in my contacts list who are fathers, to wish them a happy father's day. Unfortunately, to address a text message to multiple recipients, I must remember every one of them, and type in their "letter" individually. I have to type in a letter, then pick one contact, then type in another letter, then pick another contact, then type in another, then pick...I'm sure you can see where this is going. And of course, once I thought I had gotten everybody and pressed "send", I then went into my contacts list and realized that I had forgotten several people, and had to do it all over again. Something that should have taken less than a minute instead took several minutes, and I'm sure I still likely forgot someone!!!
Just who's brilliant idea was it to remove the "+" symbol (that would open up the entire contact list for easy multiple picks) and replace it with the stupid "suggestion" arrow! They should be fired and shot...not necessarily in that order!
Why do I have 3 drives associated with my x2 when I connect to my computer by USB?One has moto driver setup file that don't seem to run, and the other two appear to be my USB card and the phone memory, but the contents are almost identical. Yet the phone shows most memory free, while the USB card is almost full (I transferred my files to a 16 GB card and added music). Docs 2 go desktop sync in particular has issues and doesn't know which drive to enable, but I cannot disconnect only one drive
How the Droid 3 handles multiple calls? When I make an outbound second call, and that call is completed, how do I end that call and return to the first call? When I receive a second call, how do I end that call and return to the first? Apparently I get only one 'add a call' per existing call - the 'add a call' button is greyed out after one use. The very brief owner's manual says nothing about the additional call feature. Is there something available on-line that better addresses all the features of the phone?
I keep receiving multip copies of texts. For example let's say a friend texts me. I receive that same text multiple times throughout the day, even thought I deleted it. Another example, let's say that you have your Google Calendar sending you text reminders for events/meetings, etc. Even thought I deleted the first notice I still receive that exact same notice for something that happened two to five hours ago.
I noticed this issue when I had reached the preset 200 msg limit on one contact it started a second conversation so when I would txt it would post in the original conversation and the reply would post on a second conversation. So, I went in and set the upper limit to 999. On a separtate contacts SMS msg's, when I hit 300, it split the conversations again so that even when I type a reply in the new conversation, the reply goes into the original sms and when they reply, it posts to a new SMS. Seriously, this gets confusing. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a workaround? I don't mind buying another SMS app if it will work until Moto has a bug fix out in an updat. I am using the stock app since i previously used Handsent and it deleted all my msgs on 2 different occasions on my previous Thunderbolt.
I noticed that when I get messages (usually MMS with pictures) from my someone who sent the message to multiple recipients, if I touch the icon at the top of the message thread, next to "Multiple Recipients", with the four greyed out heads (where the normal contact picture is), I'm able to see who else the message was sent to. This includes people and phone numbers that I do not have in my contacts list. I'm concerned about this, because if I were to be the one sending a message to multiple recipients, I could see a situation where I would send it to multiple people but not want to disclose everyone's phone number to everyone else. Isn't this a privacy concern or violation? There should be a way to turn this off on the sending end.
Most of the time, when I have multiple updates, the phone will download some, then stop. It tells me an item is downloading, but it never does. I stop it and start it, and it downloads instantly.
Several Motorola smartphones (mainly Razr's) are creating multiple ActiveSync records in Exchange when users provision a corproate email account on their phone. One record will become blocked or quarantined causing the phone not to receive mail. The user is also emailed a notification which is generating support calls.
I recently bought the transformers 3 3dBD bundle and it came with a digital copy. I want to get that onto my photon without using ultraviolet. You can download the non uv by going to paramountdigitalcopy.com. I would like to know if it is possible to download the movie to windows media player and then sync it to my device. I'm using Motorola Media Link if it matters.
I've had my X10 mini pro for about a month and now I can't stand some of the "features" anymore. First, I thought people where crazy, sending me the same sms two or three times in a row. But now I've realized that they aren't, it's just my phone that receives them over and over again. It is the same thing with notifications. If I set a reminder in the calendar, the reminder pops up in my notification bar sometimes five or six times before I get to angry and delete the whole event from the calendar.
I'm pretty sure that this problem started after the Memorial Day Gingerbread soak.Although, it's possible that it started after the mid-August Gingerbread fiasco.I can be sitting at my computer desk in my house and receive a Voicemail notification, only to learn that it was for a call that never rang or vibrated on my Droid X perhaps a quarter of an hour before. This has happened numerous times, while most of the time, the phone rings and calls arrive correctly.
I've had this phone for about a year and have always had issues of not receiving Hotmail emails within a reasonable amount of time. With the GB update it did get a little better but today when I turned on my phone at 7am and it's now 10:30am I have not received any emails. I checked my Hotmail account on a desktop pc and I had 12 emails since last night as recently as 15 minutes ago. I thought GB was supposed to fix this. My battery life is not better if possibly worse with GB. And yes my Droid X does turn back on when I turn it off. Looks like GB may have fixed some things but broke others
