Sometimes I don't receive the text messages

Sometimes I don’t receive the text messages. Sometimes I receive them really strangely (it’s like a new text message that’s incomprehensible because it’s mixed up with bits of sentences from text messages I’ve already received). I have the impression that the situation gets worse after receiving one or more text messages with an image. Often the situation improves after deleting the blocked text messages with the command :

sudo mmcli -m any --messaging-delete-sms=

Is there anything I can do to stop this permanently? Thank you!

Please detail what type of text message you are talking about? MMS, IM, SMS, SMS+? otherwise we will not give you a fancy answer.

Thanks

To the best of my knowledge, no (unless you count debugging and developing a new fix but that’s generally not what people mean when they ask this).

You can script that command to run on a schedule, but ultimately that doesn’t prevent only react automatically. There are a few examples of this on the forum.

No, sometimes I experience mixed messages as well.

You could raise an Issue if one does not already exist.

Ideally you would start with a completely clean phone and then document a sequence of received messages that results in the problem.

You don’t specify whether you are running byzantium or crimson but perhaps it will get more attention if you are running the latter - but then that may come with its own compromises.
