I just picked up a new Honor 8 (running EMUI 5/Android Nougat) and I'm having an odd problem when receiving SMS messages.
Whenever I get a message, an odd string of text with a length of 16, starting with a tilde~
, like ~l/Adk/ljAdADFWjlk
, is appended to it. This is regardless of my SMS app (I've tried the preinstalled one, Pulse, and Google's Android Messages).
Here's an image of a conversation:
How can I stop that random string of text from appearing after the intended message?
Edit: For extra details, my carrier is Project Fi (reduced to just T-Mobile on the new GSM-only phone) and the issue occurs regardless of sender, be it an iPhone or Android phone.
