LG Revolution missing half of text messages

When I get multiple SMS messages on my phone everytime I look at the conversation in the messaging app the first half of the message is always missing. This occurs everytime I drag the message notification down. If I drag up to just unlock my phone occasionally I can go to the message app and the entire message will be there. It's a 50/50 crap shoot on that one. It really makes conversations tough when my reply is always.. "can you resend the first part again?"
Resending the message doesn't get me the first half of the message still. Only the 2nd piece I had already received. I did a little reading and the messages im receieving are most likely over the 160 character limit which would break it into 2. It's coming from T-mobile.

Hi hkell:
I can understand why you're frustrated with the problems that you've listed. There are a few suggestions I can think of to ensure your issue is resolved. For the texting problem, are you using any 3rd party messaging applications? If so, please remove them and retest using the stock messaging application. If your device is resetting intermittently, I would recommend performing a factory reset on your Revolution. This will rule out any issues potentially caused by 3rd party applications.
You can also ensure that your software is up to date. You can check the current version of software here and see if your software is up to date.
If neither of those has helped in resolving your concern, please feel free to send me a DM. I've followed you to ensure this is possible. We also have a Warranty Center (Tech Support) line that can reached at 866-406-5154 for troubleshooting.

LG Revolution isn't receiving text messages?

I got my cell phone on Black Friday, I was so excited and no I am just frustrated. I don't receive text messages half the time and my phone randomly turns off and on. Is there anyway to fix the text message problem because as a young adult that is how I mostly communicate. Please and thank you.

Missing options in text message

When in text messages after selecting a text messages but long touch on the text options 'copy' and 'more' come up. But further options under more is missing. Also in the middle of a phone call the phone gets disconnected and apple logo appears for sometime and then shows the call in progress. Looks like iOS8 has issues and needs an urgent fix

Updated iOS to the latest version 8.0.2. Rebooted, replaced SIM. problem doesn't occur all the time, it's intermittent. Sometimes the keyboard doesn't show up to type name in contact search. Once you reboot it works.

Sound Notifications for Missed Calls and Text Messages

Aside from the very small green light in the upper right corner (Bionic) - is there a way to get audio notifications for missed calls and texts? I'm missing a lot of calls and texts because I'm not checking the screen constantly. Thanks!

I am not sure about the Bionic phone specifically but I am pretty sure there should be notification sounds.
My phone, the Droid 2 global has ringtons, and notification sounds separately.
Have you tried looking in the sound settings?

BedfordTigger, I can understand how this would be an issue, especially if you receive alot information through text. Here are are few things we can try to resolve this issue. First we can try clearing the cache, then a soft reset by removing the battery for 1-2 minutes.
Steps to clear your cache are listed below:
From the Home screen, select Apps.
Select Browser (under News & search).
Select the menu icon (lower-left corner).
Select More.
Select Settings.
From the Privacy settings section, select Clear cache.
Visited website content stored on the device. The cache enables the browser to download only the content that has changed since the last time a website was visited. Since the browser only downloads changed content, pages are loaded faster.
Select OK.
Select Clear history.

Well that does sound like a difficult issue. I have not seen this as a reported issue on the Revolution. Is this happening when you have a message that is broken up in 2 parts (1/1 and 1/2)? If you drag the notification down to view the message, then later go into your messages, are you able to see the full message? If this is still happening. I would suggest clearing your messaging cache. This will not delete your text messages. Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All>Messaging>Clear data/cache.

I can call out but all incoming calls are going directly to VM with no signal that I missed a call or have VM. I can send/receive text messages from other iPhone/iPad/iTouch users, I am assuming this is really "iMessage." Is it apple software?

I have spent hours on the phone with Apple and AT&T. I went thought reset, on/off, etc, etc with both companies to no avail. Each company pointed fingers at the other....as being the source of the problem.
Problems: Suddenly ALL incoming calls were going directly to VM with no signal I missed calls and/or had VM. I was also unable to receive all Text Messages...Oddly, I could send text messages to anyone (even non-apple users but I could not receive their responses)........then I when I got home I started receiving text messages from other apples users ONLY. I assume now - iMessage kicked in and I could text (send/receive) other iPhone/iPad/iTouch users ONLY. ....yes, I could still (send) text messages to my husband's blackberry (he received my messages fine) but my phone would NOT receive his text respones.
Finally, I googled the problem and found this community where other people have had the exact same problems! One person said he "turned off 3 G" which was the solution for him....so I did the same and VIOLA! My problem solved! Nevermind the fact that I pay for 3G and cannot use it....so here's my question, if 3G is the problem on my phone is this an APPLE issue or a NETWORK problem? Do I purchase a new phone and slip in my same SIM card and hope the same does not occur or do I get a whole new SIM card and phone? What is the long term resolution to this problem?
I am happy however to find that my problem is NOT an isolated incident and wish Apple or AT&T had told me this is not so uncommon because I thought (based on the baffled response from Apple) that this has never occurred before. Where is Steve Jobs when we need him?

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

Text Message incomplete or missing? Also-SMS editing / backspace malfunction...

First issue - sometimes I received text messages that are missing the last few words/characters. I don't think this is an Android or iPhone originated issue as this happens at random from people that I know have different types of phones. Sometimes the 160 character split will break up the message and send the rest in another message, but most of the time I never see the end of the message. I currently use the existing text messaging app in conjunction with the SMS pop-up. The issue was prevalent when I used Handcent and then uninstalled it to see if that was the problem. I have also uninstalled SMS pop-up to see if it was the problem with no luck. I have looked over the settings multiple times and still cannot find anything that would be causing this. Suggestions are welcome.
Second issue - when editing a text message in portrait mode I may erase multiple characters by holding down the backspace key. On occasion, the app flips out, reverts to showing the very first message that was sent or received for the contact, freezes momentarily, and then two buttons appear on the bottom giving me the option to Cancel or Delete. I will hit Cancel or use the back button on the bottom of the phone multiple times before it will return to my message, which at this point has saved as a draft. This is EXTREMELY frustrating. It does it only at random, but it seems to be getting more frequent. The only option most of the time is to go Home and then return to text messages, find my draft, and use the backspace key carefully (and one quick push at a time to erase) so as not to invoke the same issue.
I think both of these are bugs that may be inherent with this phone in particular or possibly Gingerbread...
Thanks!
-Wes

I've been having this same issue for the past few months, in my case the problem seems to be more prevalent with text messages originating from other carriers (but not always, occasional partial incoming text issues from Verizon wireless phones as well). I called technical support, followed all their advice (basic tech advice, power cycle, remove sim, reboot, etc.) and was also transferred to HTC support that recommended a hot fix, which didn't really do anything to resolve the issue, also then did a factory reset and still no resolution. Not sure what other options I have....besides waiting for a new device when I am able to upgrade. Off topic, I think its Bee S to not be able to upgrade to a new device within 2 years, when Verizon does not fully support, properly updated/hotfix, existing issues in a timely manner...why is it that we are using and outdated OS, when a new one is out and available. Another compelling argument to purchase an iPhone (on any carrier), one device, one OS.....everyone gets an update at the same time, and phone issues are rapidly resolved. I can continue my rant, but I'll leave it as is...same issues, different day and I'm sure you've all heard the same rants of frustration.

Text messages and phone calls from March 2012 to date are missing after activating iphone5

text messages and phone calls from March 2012 to date are missing after activating iphone5. I backed up my 4 before activating my 5. Can i retrieve them somehow?

i would not want to bet on nokia ever releasing a patch or update in the software to allow this function on this particular phone.
if you look at nokia phones over the years, they have added functionality like this across a wide range all at once, take for example timed profiles on symbian phones. these have only just been phased in.
i do not think it is a development cop out, more along the lines that nokia is a huge company and as such would have a huge effor in market research. if they didnt pick this out through their market researc, why spend the money adding it?
the comment on annoyance is entirely personal to me, as it is important to you - you may want to consider moving to a symbian (series 60) based handset as these give you a lot of expansion for this sort of need.

Is there a way to stop the missed text messages/calls to be displayed

On the screen? In other words, they are listed as the number of text messages "not read" but does not show "Susan - Why are you ignoring me?!?" instead I just see that I have 15 unread messages as a number under my Text icon. Which means I have 15 messages to delete, but I digress... Is there an option or 3rd party app to stop these missed calls/text to display?
Thanks!
Tony

There is no option or setting provided by Apple for this, and I don't believe Apple would allow a 3rd party app or utility to provide this function.

Randomly missing group text messages

I am in a group text message and will randomly miss a message or receive them in the wrong order. My husband and I are the only ones in the group that this happens to. The others are on ATT. Is this the reason? The missing texts are from both Iphone and other users.

Hello MOlive13,
Group messaging has really become a fun way to interact with a group of friends at once. In order to participate in group messaging, the devices participating would need to be compatible and have group messaging enabled. This feature may not be available with every device, which may cause problems with receiving messages. One step you can take to ensure your device is set up for group messaging would be going to Settings>Messages and from this screen enable MMS Messaging and Group Messaging.

IPhone 5: Can I view text messages/phone calls that I missed when service was off?

Hello, again.
Beause my service has been off, I've been unable to recieve text messages and phone calls, but I KNOW that people have been trying to get in contact with me. Is there any way to view the messages and missed phone calls that weren't able to come through when my service was off?

At&t said something like 3-5 days if I'm not mistaken...
Google Voice is more of an internet phone to put it simply. You get a free phone number that you can choose from any area code you want.
You can text/call right from your browser. Calls/SMS are free within the USA and Canada.
MMS is still in beta, and SMS to/from the UK is not officially supported yet, but it has been known to work.
I recommend GV to anyone as a secondary number for in-case issues with phone loss/not working properly.

My text messaging is missing after iOS7 upgrade. Any fixes?

After upgrading to iOS on iPhone 4s text messaging app is missing. Only see a blank screen when bringing up the Messaging screen. Incoming messages arrive and sound an alert but can't access the user interface. There is only a blank screen which times out and reverts to the home page. I have re set network settings, all settings multiple times. Re booted, also backed up to iClould and re-set to factory settings. Nothing works.

I'm so sremely frustrated! First off didn't wanna update my device after having it 5 years, then I'm forced to, then I learn a new operating software, then they take away the ONE reason I stuck with Motorola, swype integration. I'm done playing this update game. I want a flip phone back. Any solution to this update? Was leaving swype out a mistake? Substitutions? Also, my personal dictionary is gone. What a waste of time.

LG Revolution not receiving text messages from iphone user

I am not receiving text messages from iphone user, sporatically. The messages are showing as reveived on Verizon website in usage detail, but not being received on my phone.

This issue needs fixed asap! I have a few suggestions that should help you get this resolved. If they are showing up in the usage details, that means they are hitting the Verizon network, but for some reason they are not showing up on the phone. I recommend clearing the cache from your messaging/text messaging programs. Go to settings> applications> manage apps> all> Messaging/Text Messaging> Force Stop/Clear Cache/Clear Data. Erase the old text threads that you have saved and retry.
If that doesn't work, please let us know the following:
1) Do they come in delayed or not at all?
2) Do you have any 3rd party messaging apps installed?
3) Do they have any problems receiving messages from you?
4) When they're sending messages, are they directly to you, or do you have this problem when the iPhone user sends to a group of people?
Thanks for the additional info! I'm sure we can find a fix.

LG Revolution receiving text messages

I just got this phone on 7/1. It was all programmed and I started using it. I was both sending and receiving text messages. I noticed that since 7/3 I have not been receiving text messages. I can still send them. I am sure it is probably something I did, but have no clue. I powered the phone down (without battery removal) and powered back up. Still no texts receive.

Hi Missjennfur1,
Are you having issues receiving any text messages or receiving replies back to your text messages? I would try doing a soft reset on your device. Afterwards, send a message to a person asking them to reply back to your message. If the reply message does not come through, contact the person to ask what error messages did they see when they tried to send you a reply. Also, use this link to our website site. You can send yourself a message. If the message does not go through, it will give you back the results with an error message that will shed more light on the issue with posting back the results you observed. If you need additional assistance afterward trying these suggestions, send me a private message with your information.
