SMS is activating the MMS inbox randomly - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Or actually, not completely randomly, as it happens ever time with certain SMS senders. The weather, for one, always triggers MMS. I never see the message in the SMS inbox, only MMS. I don't believe there is anything but text in the weather messages. They used to come in normally when I first got the XDA II (a week ago), and this problem just started yesterday.
Ideas?

SMS Notification

Hey long time flasher first time questioner! I just put a new rom on my 8525 and it shows that there are 2 unread sms messages on the htc home screen but i go into the sms messages and there are none.

Threaded texting - is there a limit? Msgs not appearing for some contacts

Basically, I have all text messages from my girlfriend and friends since Oct. They are threaded and everything was fine until last week. My girlfriend's texts seem to have "disappeared" and the threading seems to have started from scratch. Only the recent msgs from last week appear in there.
I know the messages are still in the phone because if I turn off threading, I can see all past messages to/from my gf.
Does anyone know what's the deal with this?
Did I hit a limit or something with the number of messages in the threading?

Phantom email

Hi only had hd2 a couple of days, great phone once i upgraded rom 1.66 , noticed one problem i seem to be getting phantom e-mails, my mail message will sound so i wake phone up ,on task bar there is e-mail symbol but on the slide unlock there is no indication of email as in a number, when i open up emails there are no new e-mails. just thinking is it sounding because i have emails that i havent opened yet and it is remembering me i have unopened mails.
you are not alone. I have seen this at least 3 times myself.
good i'm not imagining then.
seems to have stopped after I read all my mail.

Laggy SMS

Hey guys, currently on this setup: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827593, and have been suffering proper lag with SMS. I have well over 4000 texts, but recently I've noticed proper speed issues.
For one thing, the phone first lights up, waits about 7 seconds, and then shows the text (using sms popup in handcent sms). The second issue is sometimes, texts come in a lot later than they should. I've noticed getting about 3 texts after I send one, like after I send a text I'm reconnected. It's random though, usually get texts at the right time. Sound familiar? Cheers.
4ooo texts... I think you should start deleting a bit... In any case that will help!!!
1-save your texts with sms backup.
2-use HandCent SMS app ***
3-delete your texts
defs delete sum of ur texts lol.... even if its just 1k wud probz make whole loada difference

time lag

I have a problem with the incoming SMSs ,when I receive a sms the time on it is lagging behind my DELL STREAK set time,when I select either internet time or service provider time. Eg time set through internet is 7.00 PM but when I receive a reply for my msgs/sms it is 6.50 PM ,thus it is lagging behind,and the sequence of the msg thread becomes upside down.If I correct this lag by manually setting the time,my mobile clock becomes 9-10 mins behind actual time.how do i correct this?the sim works fine in other handsets.
Sounds like its the sms app itself, try looking through in app preferences for time stamp issues if that doesnt work try "go sms" free from the market, it has various fixes, troubleshooting options which may isolate the problem
Ya mine does the same thing on the Rogers network. It's pretty frustrating - I tried some different apps, the is an sms time fix on the market that worked, but then it broke my notifications, so the sms would come in showing the right time, but I wouldn't be notified of new messages, so that didn't work for me.
As mentioned above, the best remedy for me was to use another sms app, like go sms or I actually prefer Handcent SMS, all free from the market, Handcent SMS fixed the time issue and also has some other cool features that I like including an unread reminder etc.
I'm not sure why no one knows what causes this or how to fix it in the native app, but either way, the other sms apps are better anyway so you win in the end

What settings do you use on Handcent? I'm on Rogers too and my SMS come in with a -4 hour timestamp. Not all though, but some. So it's pretty weird.
isnt the time stamp on a text, the time it was sent not the time it was recieved. So maybe you phone is just taking ages to recieve texts?
No, it doesn't take 4 hours to recieve a text. Something is screwing up the incoming text's timestamp. When I get a text without first texting someone, it displays the correct incoming timestamp, but if I close Handcent and then open again, it will show that message as -4 hours. The minutes remain correct though. But if I text someone and they reply, the timestamp remains correct. Been trying different settings in the Recieved Messages menu. Provider's delievery report checked, unchecked. Handcent delievery report checked, unchecked. Combinations of the two. Offset recieved messages by -4 hours. Can't seem to fix that little quirk.
