Checklist
Affected app version
1.8.0
Affected Android/Custom ROM version
GrapheneOS (Android 14)
Affected device model
Google Pixel 4a (5G)
How did you install the app?
F-Droid / IzzyOnDroid
Steps to reproduce the bug
- Set Fossify Messages as the default SMS application.
- Open any conversation.
- Send an SMS (also reproducible with MMS).
- Observe the conversation after the message is sent.
Expected behavior
One outgoing message should be created and displayed.
Actual behavior
Two outgoing messages are created for every message sent.
The recipient receives only one SMS/MMS, but two sent messages appear in the conversation. The duplicates are also visible in other SMS applications (including the stock/AOSP Messages app), indicating that duplicate records are being written to Android's Telephony provider rather than being a Fossify UI issue.
Screenshots/Screen recordings
Additional information
- Reproducible every time.
- Happens with both SMS and MMS.
- Clearing app cache does not help.
- Disabling delivery reports does not help.
- Stock/AOSP Messages does not reproduce the issue.
- Fossify Messages is the only default SMS application.
- Other SMS apps display the same duplicate entries because they exist in the system SMS database.
ADB query after sending a single SMS with body "Fossifytest":
adb shell content query --uri content://sms/sent --projection _id,date,date_sent,type,status,sub_id,creator,address,body | grep Fossifytest
Row: 0 _id=3300, date=1781227818202, date_sent=0, type=2, status=-1, sub_id=2, creator=org.fossify.messages, address=REDACTED, body=Fossifytest
Row: 1 _id=3299, date=1781227817753, date_sent=0, type=2, status=-1, sub_id=2, creator=org.fossify.messages, address=REDACTED, body=Fossifytest
Both rows:
- have different _id values
- have different timestamps (~449 ms apart)
- have identical body, address, status, type, creator, and sub_id values
- were created by org.fossify.messages
This appears to be a duplicate insertion into the SMS provider rather than a display issue.
