Double Text Messages

I don't use Handcent but I do use SMS Popup ~ I get the double text messages about %80 of the time (mainly happens with people not on Verizon but dose happen with Verizon to Verizon Texting)

I would love to fix it, it is very annoying.
 
FIXED !! I don't get duplicate text message anymore - I went to the Verizon Wireless store and they wanted to give me a new phone and I told the technician that I didn't wanna do that unless I had to so please try to fix the problem rather then pushing me out the door telling me I'll get a new phone in 2 days.

He called the Verizon help desk, thank god the tech on the phone was willing to try and fix my phone :-) after 3 battery pulls and 2 activations everything seamed to be good to go.

I asked the tech on the phone what he did, he said he deactivated my phone completely and then activated it again thinking if there was a mix up in the system then that would clear it up.

So give Verizon a call and tell them what's going on and ask them to deactivate your phone and reactivate.

Good Luck !!!!!
 
I have been getting double text messages for two days now. It's driving me crazy. I'm using handcent, but I need to use either it or Chomp because I want my SMS to vibrate "only when ringer is set to vibrate"...and like others have said, if it was a setting, it would do it all the time.

I've done battery pulls and restarts and it hasn't solved anything. I'm going to try Chomp and see if that works. I wish the stock messaging application had that vibrate only when ringer is set to vibrate option, I wouldn't even use an aftermarket app.

And I don't have any checkboxes checked in the stock messaging app so that isn't it either.

From my experience, this is an issue with handcent. I would regularly get double texts with handcent, and I rarely get them with stock.
 
Well since I uninstalled I haven't gottena double but it worked flawlessly before so im/ perplexed
 
Has anyone found a real fix for this? Im using handcent, and not getting double messages, just notifications with vibration. I think I tried every configuration their is in settings and still happens..

screw that lol
 
the problem havent been fixed yet? i had this problem ever since the update, i switched to chomp but it forced closed on me all the time. im currently using the stock app but would want to go back to handcent since i would rather use the android settings that they have and chompsms doesnt have, since they only offer bubble texts. so im hoping the bug is fixed!
