The rate limiter was an intentional introduction in Jelly Bean (4.1) and the settings can not be altered by users. Device manufacturers have the ability to alter this limit in their firmware, but they have to balance heavy texters against protecting users against malicious premium rate SMS sending applications.
You may wish to contact your device manufacturer to see if they can raise the limit in their firmware.

OK, just as information I'm a Galaxy Nexus user therefore writing this here instead anywhere else.
However the 'protection' mechanism is plain wrong - instead of dealing with malicious software in the market end-users are 'punished' with such limitations ruining the, otherwise great, experience of using Android. Also it won't help with such limitations because any malicious software can be aware of such restrictions thus pacing the rate of sending premium texts to avoid being noticed by the user (until the bill comes or one runs out of credit on pre-paid) and even if Google set this to hilarious 1 text per hour user still could not be aware that anything is wrong because noone is keeping track of their texting timing.
Bottomline - such restriction won't help nor solve the problem but can only be highly annoying to regular users.

Completely agree with wojek.k. Terrible user-experience. I have unlimited texts so why would I care if I've been sending a lot of text messages. Soon we'll have to answer security questions to send a text message...
lf...@google.com <lf...@google.com> #5
Ive gotten it a few times now and it's very irritating. Im part of the text generation and friends and I trigger off text messages like crazy, especially with those that aren't on G+. How am I suppose to text someone I like (wink) only to get cockblocked from Android itself. #fail
yo...@gmail.com <yo...@gmail.com> #6
That is probably the worst "feature" I've ever seen on a phone. Why would a phone EVER limit its usage for anything? I pay for unlimited texting and I pay for my phone, why should I have to deal with this? No other phone, including the iPhone, has such a stupid limit. Clearly this does nothing to prevent spam. Please, AT LEAST let the end-user decide if they want that limit or not. It's just stupid.
[Deleted User] <[Deleted User]> #7
I believe that the this feature should be an option allowing users to either limit or not limit their number of texts. In my opinion that would be the best for of action. But if it is not possible to remove/bypass it, can you tell us how to remove it in our custom roms.
vh...@google.com <vh...@google.com> #8
I agree with others here. This is a HORRIBLE implementation. I'm not even a heavy texter, but occasionally I WILL send out eg. a party invite to a group of friends, easily passing the limit of "allowed" messages (especially since a long message will count as 2-6 messages all by itself times perhaps 10 invites.
If this was at least user-definabale (like the "allow non-market apps to install" option, that would be one thing. You'd "protect" the non-savvy users, while allowing me and others to keep using our phone as we want to, but making it hard-coded like this is EXTREMELY annoying. And yes - I too have a Galaxy Nexus so I can't "talk to my carrier" - I got it precisely because I wanted the full android experience - not to get friggen told how I can't use my own phone by it.

Unfortunatelly mentioned fix doesn't seem to work (for me at least)... and this 'feautre' just cause slight problem because message wasn't sent and the dialog appeared and was dismissed because I didn't click 'allow' (and clicking any other place dismiss any dialog in android)...
vh...@google.com <vh...@google.com> #14
This "feature" really is absolutely insane. I can't believe it. If you're going to have something like this hard coded then it CAN'T be a flat rate to fit hundreds of thousands of different users! At the very least it should be a learned average, unique to each device, based on THE USER'S personal rate of texting. Even if this was implemented through the service provider based on past billing information (average texts per month, overages, unlimited data plans), that would be a great improvement.
But of course, like everyone else has said, most importantly.. IT NEEDS AN "OFF" SETTING

I tried to send a number of messages to my friends wishing them a Happy New Year. Mindful of how the Networks crash around midnight, I therefore did this at 7pm, some FIVE hours early.
It was a complete and utter waste of time, as only around lunchtime the NEXT DAY, New Year's Day, did I for some reason only THEN start seeing these Sending Warning pop up acknowledgments.
What a disaster, especially as my messages to the hundreds of friends alluded to why I was sending the message so EARLY. A message they only actually got on New Year's Day afternoon, much LATER than those sent from users of any other device...
That utterly reined what I hoped to achieve, and really put a bug downer on my New Year.
I could say I suppose I see why they have introduced this feature, and then say that the problem is one of getting the balanced and limit correct, and that they are a million miles apart here, but in truth, I can accept it at all an ANY level...
Ive used Android since the original G1... If it's never been a real problem for anyone all this long time, how does it now justify a change that DOES however, negatively impacts so many. And that's putting it mildly...
Disgusting...

It would be Really Nice if the user could at least __temporarily__ increase the limit for some particular duration: Say increase from 30 to 300 for, say the next 48 hours.

I'm with everyone else. This is a horrible implementation of this "feature". This crap won't stop anything. Besides, if there were a malicious program sending repeated texts that triggered this, wouldn't this just make it impossible to do anything about? A message repeatedly popping up asking if I give it permissions to send? Who has this problem anyway? I install all kinds of random crap from the market and have never had a single app attempt to send a text. I understand that doesn't mean that it doesn't happen but I'm just saying this is a terrible solution to a very minute problem.
You should at least have a whitelist or something available. The default texting app is giving me this message... What genius came up with this as a solution?!

Thats not entirely true. Modern Docker for MacOS uses a component called

Important note, taken on Intel's website:
The SDK Manager will download the installer to the "extras" directory, under the main SDK directory. Even though the SDK manager says "Installed" it actually means that the Intel HAXM executable was downloaded. You will still need to run the installer from the "extras" directory to finish installation.
After installing 6.1.1, I can finally run the emulator alongside my vagrant box. YAY!

Hi! As it was said in #99, SDK manager does not install HAXM correctly.
After updating HAXM 6.0.1 was still installed (for my upgrade case). I checked it by running a following command:
$ANDROID_HOME/extras/intel/Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager/silent_install.sh -v
6.0.1
I had to reinstall HAXM manually:
sudo $ANDROID_HOME/extras/intel/Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager/silent_install.sh
After that the emulator and docker run both at the same time! \o/

I have been unable to start the Emulator recently on Mac OS X 10.12.4, and found that HAXM strangely wasn't installed anymore in the SDK Manager. So I chose to install it from the SDK Manager and it completed, but still the emulator would not start with Docker installed/running. I then downloaded HAXM 6.1.2 from the Intel site and installed it manually and then even with Docker running it would start.

Just to add my $0.02 here. There are two problems on OSX:
1. Haxm reports a conflict with virtualbox when in actual fact the conflict may be with another hypervisor (e.g. docker very common now).
2. Haxm is installed incorrectly by android sdk. I suspect the problem may be that it needs sudo permissions which it does not have and silently ignores. If I install manually (6.2.1) with sudo all is good and the error goes away even with docker running.
