Angry Birds and Text Messages on the Droid

Moved for greater exposure

Sekyler, thanks for sharing your concern about this device. I was unable to duplicate your issue. I tried playing Angry Birds, sent a text from a different phone, and still received the text message. Does the text message come in after you finish playing the game? Try clearing cache from your Messages application. This will not erase your SMS. Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All>Messaging>Clear data/cache. This could also be related to how much memory is available in the phone. Try moving some applications to your SD card, clear cache from other large applications, delete emails from the Trash folder. Let me know if either of those suggestions resolve your issues.

Temporary solution for deleting text messages for the Droid X

For everyone trying to delete the message history:
I know this is a pain in the rear-end, but I found a way that works as a temporary fix.
~Write down the number of the contact you're trying to delete from the history (ex girl/boyfriend, secret lover, whom ever)
~Delete the contact
~Re-enter the contacts info
You'll notice the history for that contact is gone and even though this is a rather long route to take to delete the history it works.
Now lets just hope there's an update soon.

Runnman,
I am not sure you if you know this or not but the Droid X stores text messages as well as phone call histories in two locations. One location for your text messages is at the location where you would normally send or receive messages, you can reply to them and if you'd like you can delete the conversation as well as the trend, however, there is a catch. Even though you have deleted the trend or conversation, if you go to your contacts and swip your finger to the left or right (I can't recall which way but you'll know when you see your message history) you'll see all you text messages. It's this location where the messages and call history can not be deleted and the only way I have found and so far the only technique that actually works, is to delete the entire contact, once the contact is deleted you will no longer have the history listed. Then you can readd the contact and repeat the process until an update is provided. I hope this doesn't confuse you too much.
Cheers

I was playing Angry Birds and had to hit the pause button to listen to something. When I hit the pause/play button again to resume, I heard talking that sounded like a talk-radio program and I couldn't turn it off, even when I turned off my iPad.

Does anyone know what would cause me to start hearing a talk program of some type after hitting the play button after it had been on pause. Hitting the pause button shuts off the talking, but hitting the play button starts it up again. The strange thing is that the talking continues even after I turn off my iPad. The talk program was about silly or trendy news items, not regular news. It sounds like it could be a talk-radio program, but there were no call letters or information on where it was coming from or who was talking. The person doing all the talking is a male and sounds like he could be in his 20's. The only way I could turn it off was to hit the pause button and then turn off my iPad. I just got my iPad last week and had not had any problems with it until this happened. At the time this happened I was playing a version of Angry Birds that kept being interrupted by t-mobile commercials from time to time, which I had never experienced before. either.

Well, shut my mouth! There was a similar question over to the right about a 6th generation nano repeating over and over again -- I read the answer to that one, followed the instructions, and holy crap, it's back to normal.
Is there a name for this when you end up replying to your own aggravating question? That's what I did. Now I can go out and listen. It's only 91 degrees. Heaven. Thanks, Apple.

Can u send an URGENT text message on the Droid Charge???

I been trying to figure out how to send an urgent text message. I've had the phone since lst November and seems all I can do is send regualr text messages. How can u send an urgent text message so that it grabs the recipients attention to respond as soon as possible. Like for example, that person ur sending the message to is in a situation where they cant recieve phone calls, so u gotta text them instead and its an urgent matter, so ur wanna to send an urgent text message that grabd their attention immediately. So does anyone know how u go about sending an urgent text message? Please get back to me. Thanks -Brian

don't know aside from calling someone. if they are unable to receive phone calls, then they are probably unable to receive texts. you could sending them an e-mail - perhaps they have a data signal?

Text Messaging on the Droid X2 .. Messing up!

Is anyone elses txt messaging messing up on them? it takes me 5 min just to write out a line because the keyboard keeps disappering on me

I recently posted this on the Mororola Forums in response to keyboard problems. YMMV:
"When the stock multi-touch keyboard freezes, acts funny, etc. go to:
Menu > Manage apps > All > Multi-Touch keyboard > Clear data [and clear Cache if it's not 0]
Others have found that turning off "Next word prediction" in the Multi-Touch keyboard settings also seems to help prevent keyboard freezes.
Menu > Settings > Language & Keyboard > Multi-Touch keyboard > Next word prediction"

I just got a new iPad air and also own an iPhone 5. I'm receiving most of my text messages on the iPhone, but some but not all are also showing up on my iPad. I don't want them on my iPad, any suggestions on how to get them to stop showing up n my iPad?

Go to settings>messages>send and receive at>you can be reached by iMessages at> Uncheck your phone number and you can select your Apple ID emal address if you want to use that for messages.

Having horrible service with 4GLTE I have had 3G for several weeks (I am not the only person I know having this problem), I have reset my network settings and it did not resolve the issue. I am also unable to send SMS and text messages without them eithe

Having horrible service with 4GLTE I have had 3G for several weeks (I am not the only person I know having this problem), I have reset my network settings and it did not resolve the issue. I am also unable to send SMS and text messages without them either failing or not sending at all. Is there an outage in the Cleveland, Ohio area (zip codes 44129, 44134, 44137) or anything else I can do to resolve this issue?

Not that I'm a Verizon employee, but I have experience in the field. An LTE tower will only extend up to, on a perfect day, with no elevation, 6-7 miles. On a typical day, you will be lucky at four (4) miles. The three ZIP codes you've given are all within about a 12 mile radius. That would mean that 2-3 towers are currently down at the same time, and Verizon would know about it within the hour. Being it's Cleveland, I'm sure they would receive numerous calls regarding an outage of that size.
My point is that if you're having issues in all three ZIP codes, chances are it's a phone issue. If you're handset is simply not receiving LTE, but still receiving 3G, that would signify a SIM card issue. You need to get your SIM card replaced.

For instance, DigiDNA's DiskAid will let you extract your messages from the phone in human-readable format. Like .pdf.

Ever since I enabled iMessage on my Mac Airbook, I can no longer receive text messages from the iMessage people on my iPhone, only on my iMessage now!! How do I get the messages to reach both iMessage and iPhone??

We are suffering very similar issues when communicating from my iphone to a friend who has both iphone and iPad enabled.
As long as I reply to an existing text chain, then it is visible on the target iphone. If I SMS the phone number, it gets routed to the IPAD!! And NO, I should not have to disable imessage when I want to send an SMS!!

Hello Todd:
I had this very same problem when trying to activate iMessage and Facetime on my iPad. When I signed into my account, I actually wasn't even presented with the option of a phone number - notwithstanding the fact that I was contacting others (and being reached by others) by my phone number on my iPhone. Having both the iPad and the iPhone on, I kept trying to turn off and on both iMessage and Facebook in Settings on both my iPad and iPhone, hoping that that they would eventually sync. But this proposed solution by others was unsuccessful for me.
Then, I found out what the problem was: When my iPhone was activated, it automatically registered my phone number for contact purposes. I was using iMessage on my iPhone for quite some time without actually being signed into my Apple ID account. When another device - such as an iPad or iPod - is being used for iMessage or Facebook, you are prompted to sign into your Apple account, using your username and password. These two devices will not register your phone number as an option for contact unless your iPhone is signed into your Apple account as well. In other words: your phone number will not be synced.
Go into your "Settings" on your iPhone and click on "Messages". Scroll down and click on "Send & Receive" (which should be followed by your phone number). On the next page, you will be able to determine whether or not your iPhone is using the Apple ID for messaging purposes. (Note: This information applies for Facetime as well.) If it is using your Apple ID for messaging, than at the top, you will see "Apple ID: <your particular e-mail account>" in Blue text. However, if you are not using your Apple ID for messaging, than you will see the words: "Use your Apple ID for message". Even though below this you will see your phone number checked as the contact source, you will want to click the tab that says, "Use your Apple ID for message". Sign into your account (just as you must sign in for iMessage on your other devices), and just choose your phone number as the "Send & Receive" contact. (The option of the e-mail will be there too, but you don't have to check it. And later on, you can delete it as an option.)
Now that all of your devices are signed in using your Apple ID, the other devices should register your phone number as a choice. It may take a little while, however. What I did was sign out of iMessage on my iPad, and then sign in again. If the option didn't appear, I just went back and signed in again, and kept doing this until the option for the phone number appeared.
Again, this will work for Facetime as well. The solution is to sync your iPhone account with the other devices by using your Apple ID for messaging (and Facetime) purposes.
I hope that this works for you, Todd! ~ Brian

Is it possible to use Siri to send text messages to groups? I want to be able to say to Siri "Send a text message to the people in 'group 4' category." I then dictate the text message, confirm, and out it goes. Groups of 100 to 250 contacts.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hmmm, that's strange - just checked again and it is 1066288.

I muted the sound while playing angry birds and now I can't get the sound back. I'm fine with ipod, just the games

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
