[Q] Messaging limit? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any like limit for how many messages you can have in one conversation, because when i restore my messages then messaging to and from one version stops working the SMS app became unusable until restart then the messages arrive or are sent. its about 5100 messages in that conversation.
Any ideas? thanks

From personal experience the stock LG messaging app sucks alot, had the same problem restoring or deleting alot of messages at the same time, the app would crash so i switched to a diferent app, been using Textra and never had any problems again.

Duplicate messages with GO SMS Pro

So I've been using GO SMS Pro for almost two months now. Early on I got tired of getting messages within the app as well as through my stock messaging app. I used NoBloat Free to disable the stock MMS.apk and that eliminated the duplicate messages.
However, I had a friend tell me repeatedly that he had sent me a picture message and I wasn't getting them. I could send them without problem, but I couldn't receive them. So I decided to re-enable the stock MMS.apk and it started working again.
Is there anyway to avoid the duplicate messages and still be able to receive MMS? Should I be using a different messaging app? I like the GO SMS more than the stock messaging app.
Just disable notifications in the stock sms app. That's what I do when I use another app.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA App
Well I guess that would eliminate the duplicate notifications, but they are still "there". Even after re-enabling the stock messaging app I had 438 messages waiting. I worry this is slowing down the phone because they all build up. If I could receive MMS without the stock messaging app I'd be fine.
Yes, I've noticed every time that i restart my phone it says i have whatever amount of messages from the stock app, but i redirected it so that when i go to view it just goes to go SMS pro

I guess I could just redirect it to GO SMS. Does anyone know of a better remedy though?
Could I use Titanium Backup to freeze the stock messaging app? Or would I end up with the same result as I did using NoBloat free?
I have the same "problem". when I send one text message .. the receiver will get 2 messages from me . :|
with older go sms I don;t have any problems
Same problem for me. Send 1=sends 2.
Kiiiind of a critical bug for a sms-app.(if it is the app that is)

I just got a new Galaxy S3 and installed Go SMS Pro. My problem is slightly different. The person i send the message to doesn't get double messages. But I get double messages from the sender. I just installed this app 5 min ago so i assume i have the latest version. Any ideas out there? Thanks.

[Q] SMS to MMS - Problem

Hello. I think the most of you know this problem. If I write long SMS, my Nexus automatically turns SMS to MMS . For me is that a problem, because I want that my Nexus split my long text in several SMS and not in one MMS. I couldn't find a solution for this problem. At the time I use Handcent. Is there any solution in work?

I have the opposite issue. My long SMS are automatically splited in multiple SMS messages but I would prefer to be converted to MMS .... I guess you make some app installed that is doing this conversion to MMS. If you figure out the app please let me know
Jake
Any SMS bigger than 160 * 3 chars is converted in MMS by stock Message app.
Handcent has an option for this in the settings menu.
Yes, Handcent solves this issue. On the other hand, I noticed Handcent is horribly laggy when typing an answer to a received message straight from in (what I call) notification-dialogbox-view (not the fullscreen app).
Is a patched sms/mms stock app with some kind of added sms splitting patched feature anywhere to be found ?
By the way, a little offtopic, do any of you guys know if there is a black-background stock sms/mms app floating around ?
many thx in advance

[Q] Duplicate SMS Messages.

My note 4 sometimes sends duplicate SMS messages to various people. On my SMS logs it only shows 1 message sent but the receiving phone gets 2 messages sent to it. I use the stock messaging app and have hangouts disabled. This only happens maybe once a week and only for a few minutes before it corrects itself without a reboot or closing messaging app in recent apps. Anyone else experiencing this or have a solution?

[Q] Sprint LG G4 Spliting SMS

Before I switched to sprint I had used T-Mobile LG G3. The default messaging app split long text messages into two or three, and I received long messages in similar chunks. But I used the Textra messaging app and it ceased to do that. Long messages sent as one as well as receiving 500+ character text.
Now, being with sprint the problems have re-appeared and I an unable to fix it. Textra does not change the sms limits so I send multiple text to friends and likewise with receiving. This is not a huge issue just a major inconvenience and a nuisance.
Are there setting I'm messing, apps that will help, anything i can do to keep long message as one? Please and thank you for your help.
I think it's a Sprint issue. I've been with them for a long time and always remember this happening. However, if there is a fix, I'd love to know it also.

Sprint has the 160 character limit for SMS texting. If you want to text longer messages as a single message, you either need to use an instant messaging app like Google Hangouts (though those require the recipient to also have the messaging app), or find a texting app that can convert long messages to MMS if it goes past the 160 character limit. These solutions will convert the SMS to MMS or other forms of data, though, so just be aware of that if you have some sort of data limit.
If the converting SMS to data is not a viable solution, a quick google search revealed this app: BigSMS, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=skezza.main&hl=en.
It supposedly can make long texts, but I have never used it myself, so I can't comment on if it works or not.

As I said before, I used Textra in the past and my messages were sent as one and I received long messages as one. I recently downloaded EvolveSms which fixed the issue of my messages being split by converting them into MMS (which i have no problem with at all) but I still got 4 separate chunks of their message. I know there's an option to reassemble split messages but it seems to not be working. I'll go to a sprint store to see if there's an issue there or not.

Ok, Good luck with with the Sprint customer rep. The split SMS thing never bothered me since I've been on Sprint for a very long time. However, I did a quick google search, and it does seem like some devices have native support for recombining received SMS messages, like the Sprint Galaxy S 5, so it does look like it can work. Hopefully they can do it on the G4 as well.

Long Delayed MMS

I'm having a consistent problem where text messages in a group text (MMS) are LONG delayed both in sending and receiving. If I login to Verizon Messages online, the messages come through timely, so I'm thinking it must be something specific with the phone.
I generally use Google Messages as the default SMS app, but I've tried using the stock Samsung as well as the Verizon Messages+ app and the same issue persists.
Any ideas from anyone?
Thanks!

I've been rocking Signal SMS and it's been pretty solid thus far.
