It seems that every time I send an SMS it is sent twice. Anyone who has experienced this? It's not sucha big deal but still.
And does anyone but me think that the UI for the message application is totally retarded? I always press ok, realize it was wrong, go into the Drafs folder, bring up the message, and press "Sent".
Somehow they didn't think this one trough.
Anyways, who knows sometging about the double SMS thing?
Thanks!
If you have installed SPB pocket plus.. You need to exclude the tmail.exe from your close feature.
click on the upper right part of your lcd/options/close button/feature options/exceptions/add/browse under windows folder look for tmail.exe and press ok.
hope this helps
If you're not using SPB PocketPlus... just make sure you get the Message Sent notification before closing the messaging app.
What about when you're using wisbar advance? Is it enough to set the single tap to "minimize"?
Yes, WA is probably causing the same issue. Try single click is minimize or minimize the mail-app with the red-button.

I have same problems!
Try to send SMS from Contacts List.
Hold on Name and Click on "Send Text Message"
It not possible to send a SMS twice.
I have the same problem. Are you saying a software app are causing that?
This has been discussed long ago. The solution (which is not ideal) is not to close the app until the confirmation message has been received.

Hi guys,
I have a confirmation after a SMS is sent. Telling me "the sms is sent"
and an enveloppe will show at the top of the XDA2 (the same enveloppe you got when you received an Email)
But the enveloppe Icon won't go?? Unless I do a reset???
If I get an SMS and I read the SMS, then the Icon will go away.
But in this case since this is just a confirmation, and there is no SMS to read. I can't get the icon to leave??
can someone help?
thank you
This happens to me as well from time to time...I think it has to do with if you come out of the Inbox applet a little too soon, or sometimes if you don't click on the envelope icon once it appears.
One of those annoying little things but I don't think it does any harm to your messages or anything. A soft reset always clears it for me.

same here with ruu172104wwe on O2 XDAII, does happen 3-4 times a week, soft reset will wash the taskbar..
same here
Exactly as Anton says (same on XDAI). If you send an SMS message and exit the INBOX too quickly, the "sent" envelope gets stuck.
It's a bug! :roll:
never happent to me but i have heard that people with pocket plus who have not removed the option where it really do close applications insted of just minimizing them having this problem
Thank you
thank you
I was thinking I'm the only one.
Have a nice week-end

My problem is even worst! Sometimes, when I send an sms the small box-icon remains there and if I tap on it,..the beneficiary gets another sms once again!!
I have Spb Poket Plus & Spb Full Screen keyboard installed. Maybe it's due to those software!
iv been getting this with my m1000
and wadda ya kno.... iv got pocket plus running with the "close" option bit....
well if you got pocket plus
and do use the REAL close option
cant you just wait untill the sms is sent before
you close outlook
imho then the real close option is a bit of a problem
because ms never ment programs to be closed that way / at all
Hi there,...I contacted Sbp software and explain the problem,... I disabilited the "really close option" and the problem never appears. ... I close applications manually.
That's all folks
i dont really see it as sbp's problem but more as outlooks problem
if their request to send get messed up because of the sender being killed it's not really sbp's problem it's the way outlook is
of cause one may think it odd that sbp make their closing the default option
For Rudegar
Of course you are right! it's not sbp's problem. I immediately supposed it's an outlook problem. I really hope future versions of outlook would consider this fact. But the important for me was to stop SMS problems. Disallowing "close all" option solved it. And for me (and I think other people having this problem) it's more than acceptable.
sms icon
You need to add tmail.exe to the programs the Plus 2.0 marks as exceptions.
you need to open your inbox,then open Options of Plus 2.0 and add in the exceptions the last program opened(in this case the sms program which you opened...tmail.exe)
that should do it
It seems to be working fine!! many thanks jokz23!!
thank you very much
It seemed working fine,...
After my previous post, I added tmail.exe as exception,... The application didn't close. Good, I sent an sms. the icon didn't froze,...but my girlfriend got -3- sms
I think we only have to renounce "really close" function.
ever since i've upgraded mine to WM2003SE, my friends are complaining about how they receive the same message twice every after 10 minutes...is it the software? or my service provider? any help would be much appreciated...thanks. :lol:
i have te exact same problem....
Can anyone help.....
I gues you both are using "Pocket Plus" software, you have to disable the "close" feature, or at least, execlude "Outlook" from the the "close" feature so when you next time send SMS, it goes as one time, not dublicate!!
Hope this helps.
this thing also happens to me, my receipients complain that i send the message more than once (even up to 10x!)
i tried diabling the "close" function of SPB Pocket Plus. hope this works
what i did and works so far is i don't t tauch anything on the screen antil i ge the ''message send'' bubble, by doing anithing else the messages get to be send twice!
known bug...
What you experience is a well known bug in Windows' way to send SMSs:
The only "workaround" is to wait a few seconds after pressing the "send"-button until the bubble "message sent" comes up, just as chlouk wrote.
If you close the messages app before the bubble comes up, your SMS will be sent twice - only MS knows why...
Greetings,
BGK
Just exclude the tmail.exe from the close button feature of pocket plus. It'll fix the problem.
you are soooo right.....
it's fixed!
Thanx man... :lol:
no prob.. btw look for the tmail.exe in windows folder.
it's been nearly 2 months since i last posted this, n checked it only just now. :lol: my problem was solved a month ago by uninstalling SPB pocketplus...i'm reinstalling. thanks much for the help!
I have exactly the same problem only when I send a sms while I am talking on the phone.
Hello all,
I have my Qtek S100 for about two weeks and now some friends have allerted me that they were receiving twice each sms i sent. I have now compared with the gsm-operator bill that came today and they are charging me twice for each sms.
How can i fix this, sending only one sms and not two??
Regards,
Antonio
Basically, don't close your messaging app before you get confirmation that the SMS is sent. I guess that you use SPB Plus and that you actually close the app instead of minimize it? Try to exclude it from the apps that SPB Plus closes by adding it to the list under the options for the close button.
do you have the habit to turn off the pda (power off) after you send an sms?
The reason being, if the sms is not sent, i.e. you don't see the "message sent" bubble, and you turn off, the next time when you turn on again, it'll resend again.
I think you are using SPB pocketplus aren't you ?
Open pocketplus, select close button. hit feature options. Add exeptions, search in the windows folder for TMAIL.EXE and add that.
Your problem will be solved !
problem solved, i think
thanks guys

hoi all
i got a problem with ma mdac... if i send a sms, teh receiver alwys gets it twice :roll: -- could u help me fixxin this pls??
thx greetz kiff
Don't close Inbox until you've received the 'message sent' notification, otherwise the message will go through twice for some reason.
That is because he is using a task manager! You have to excempt \Windows\Tmail.exe from your taskmanager closing procedure! In SPB Pocket plus there is a way to do it!
yep thats true, i always close inbox, then after a few secs teh message "message sent" pops up... k i wont close it before received that message thx
yeah im usin Spb Pocket Plus - how am i doin that?
thx
greetz kiff
This only happens (I think) if you use a program like Spb to actually close the program... i.e., just clicking (X) (and minimizing the mail program) doesn't cause this problem... in Spb go to Options>Close Button>Exceptions and add \Windows\tmail.exe
This will cause Spb to minimize (as is the normal function) the mail app, instead of forcibly closing it.
I assume this problem occurs because you send the message, and close the app before it's had time to confirm that the message has been sent, then when you reopen the program, it attempts to complete what it was last doing... resulting in it sending the message a second time.
many thx it worx now
erm - so its a bug of spb??
greetz kiff
Thanks for the tip, i too had the same problem, and a friend grumbling all the time coz he was getting 2 copies of each message

Its not a bug, its just a side effect....
I've got an XDA Mini S on the O2 network, and people keep telling me that they are receiving my texts twice :?
Does anyone know why this is, or how I can fix it?
Hi Gazhowell
I had the same problem with mine on O2. Found the problem to be SPBpocket plus on the phone! Try not to close the text messages window until you get the message sent confirmation.
I was closing it just as it had sent so when i opened it again it would send again without a notification!
Hope this helps.
Blimey that was a quick reply
I do have spb so I'll try your suggestiong about keeping the window open. Thinking about it now I have been quickly closing it before waiting for the sent confirmation.
Seems an annoying little bug though.
It is not a bug. SMS just cannot be closed while sending. Try to add tmail.exe into hidding (not really closing) apps [in close settings in spb].
In my point of wiev on pda's with phone Contacts and Messages should be hidden, not closed. It speed up opening a lot. While using phone this two features are used most.

Thanks for that - I'll give it a try
Yeh i found the same issue when i was closing it too quick!!
give it a shot and let us know how it goes.
Savac has a good point actually. it really should be set to hide as opposed to close that would cure the problem.
good luck!
sms twice
i also had the same problem but didnt have spb installed then so it isnt that that is causing this problem i just wait too till see confirmation message
SMS TWICE
Any suggestion ? Maybe any tweaks or reg modifications ? I wait for confirmation about sms sent, but after wakeup my wizard sending sms second time anyway .
Easy fix don't use Spb Plus
This not only goes for SPB Plus, but for every task manager that really closes apps instead of minimizing them like the standard Wm5 behaviour. They all close the tmail.exe too soon, thereby causing the app to think that the sms was not send and sending it again. Just wait for the "message sent"pop-up before you close the messaging app and you should be fine. Alternatively, you can make an exception in your task manager that tmail.exe is not really closed but only minimized. That also works of course.
