So i found out all you need to do is download either two apps:
Anti SMS Bomber
Thats the app that will stop duplicate messages from coming to you. Worked for me, and i treid it while texting someone for like 40 messages. You should try if you have this problem of getting 2 messages from the same person.
There is also a pro out there with more features.

Also more than likely if you are having duplicate messages before this, it's probably your signal, I don't think Cricket users are as low as MetroPCS so they will receive the duplicate messages on a lower percentage compared to Metro users.

As far as the signal strength being misleading or incorrectly reporting, i read from somewhere, and even i had this problem, that your device will say not sent because you have low signal, but indeed it did send??

So when you resend it, the user on the other part of the line is getting duplicate, that might be happening on the other part of the line to you, if this app doesn't work for you, for some reason. ;)

For MMS/SMS, in the options there is an option called DELIVERY REPORTS, IF checked, it will inform you as to the delivery status of your text. (Be sure, there is a setting for SMS AND MMS, be sure to check both).

That combined with app 'Anit SMS Bomber', should get you right where you need to be.


Hope it works! ;)
