Android sendTextMessage sends two identical messages on exceution

Question

I\'ve been working on an app that sends SMS-messages. The problem I have is that the sendTextMessage method sends two messages with the same content. How do I fix that?

Answer 1

There is an issue with firmware (LPQ) specifically for Galaxy S2 where SMS is sent twice on all 3rd party apps (including Handcent, GO SMS, etc) except stock messaging app. I think the latest version of firmware LP7 fixes the duplicate send SMS issue. Can you verify the firmware version on your phone?

Handcent & GO SMS has found their own workarounds and upgraded their apks to market.
