Sending multiple SMS messages instead of one

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone else is having the same problem as me.
Every now and again I'll send a text message to someone (or sometimes a few people) and then I'll get a text back from them saying that I only needed to send it once as they'd received it twice.
Now, as far as I can tell, this is gonna be eating into my text bundle (which I'm not too happy about!) and wondered if anyone else has experienced this with their device?

I had this last night.... I sent an SMS to my Dad the day before... and last night he rang me up asking why I sent it again..... I had no idea!! Nothing to do with Orange is it??

Nope, nothing to do with the Orange network as a mate of mine has just bought an O2 XDA II and he's sent a few texts which I've received twice.

Dears, I guess you have Sbp Pocket Plus 2.0 or 2.1 installed in your xda, it creats the problem of sending doublicate messages.
The Solution???
In the options, do not use the "close" feature in Pocket Plus, simply take out the tick in the "Close" feature, then try to send SMS. Your imate, or xda, or wshatever, will work ok afterthen!!!

Ahhh, right...
I'll try adding an exclusion to the list for "tmail.exe" (which is what PocketPlus identifies it as) and see if I get any more problems...
Cheers for that

I will give that a go myself... see if that sorts the problem.

I don't have it (SPB Plus) but I have the same problems! ITS A CON Back in the days of free texts on Pay as u go on o2 I noticed this.... MY SMSC (Text Message Service Centre Number) had changed because I was investigating why my friends where recieving multiple copys of messages on seeing that the smsc number had changed once i had added (Whats now called a 'bolt on') to my number I changed it back to the original once that was done I STILL Recieved my free messages and the multiple copys had stopped

this used to happen with me , i tried this solution and it worked with me
when u send any message, DO NOT exit the sms program until u get a sent message confirmation and that won't happen.

Mine started doing this to-day ahh!!
Have added the tmail.exe to exception list hope this works

O2 Mini S cannot read sms

Hi, I got this problem when i receive an sms,i can saw it when i open the messaging , when i click the individual sms ,it will just show a blank page and nothing else. I cannot reply, read or even see who send to me when i click into the sms. Anyone face this program? any suggestion to solve will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Are you sure that that are 'real' SMS or only service and OTA checks?
Try to let a friend send you a sms with a short text and see if that works! Is your service center number for SMS correct in the phone?

Real sms. It is the place where you read all ur sms, the messaging application.
When people send me an sms, I cannot read it when i click the sms. Anyone face the same problem before?

unfortunatley mate, i had the same problem a while ago, with the same phone, i was running the shipped o2 rom. i didn't find a solution, i just had to do a reset. since playing with other roms it hasn't happened. What i did notice was that cemail.vol became movable, so i copied that to my computer, just incase it would be of any use later.
I can't offer any solutions mate, just a master reset. if you do find a solution, could you pm me please
Now i'm frequently syncing my messages with Jeyo. Good luck

SMS and Email screens

Hi All,
Does anyone encounter the problem that when a new SMS or email comes through, when you open it, it seems to open the message a little way down (i.e. it misses the date sent for SMS and email it misses the To: and Sent information)...
It is almost like it opens these directly on the subject.
Is there a way to amend this so the whole SMS or email open from the top...?
Many thanks
Phil

Anyone...?
please help me as this is driving me insane!
Thanks
Phil

Come on guys.... Can anyone help?

You can find unicode setting from message tab, all messages-menu-settings-options.
If it's not working for u then try updating your ROM.
Now, you can download official ROM from htc site directly.

hey there,
the unicode thing is off and still im having those problems.. hope someone found a solution for it ??

This is a known issue and the sms hotfix has only worked for a small number of people - it's still an outstanding bug. There is a workround though, that works 100% of the time. You need to disable HTC messaging, and use the windows messaging app instead. Once there's a hotfix that actually works, you can go back to the much nicer HTC app.
The option to disable HTC messaging is available in BsB Tweaks. I'd recommend installing that, setting "SMS Mode" to use SMS "classic view", and soft reset your phone. If you have any messages stuck in your outbox, they still won't send, but any future ones will do.
BsB Tweaks is available here...

It worked for me, but then I had success with the hotfix too, so I'm sorted now. I still keep an eye on the outbox though
Good luck mate - hope it solves it for you.

Do the unsent messages remain in the outbox?
In that case, try setting sms mode to GSM instead of GPRS or wait a little while before putting the device in standy after pressing send.
When the device is suspended, it seems the gprs connection is sometimes deactivated and sms over gprs is not sent.
Worked for me; no more messages remaining in the outbox.

Yeah, that's another known workround, but it's not been 100% succesful. Can't wait till HTC sort this proper.

Installing the hotfix worked for me.
"-ish"
What I mean is that I have been able to send and receive SMS but not MMS. Installing the hotfix sorted out sending MMS, but I cannot receive. It may be something to do with O2 who have been having problems.
Whoa! MMS just worked and downloaded the picture, so it must have been O2.

SMS Problems when text is longer than one page

Hi guys,
Just wondering if anybody can help me with this problem I am having with my Samsung Galaxy i5800...
Sometimes when I receive a text message that is longer than the maximum number of characters in 1 text message...my phone will mix the remainder of the text up with a previous message from my inbox.
Does anybody know what the problem could be here? I have tried deleting my convos and minimizing the number of messages in each convo to no more than 500 and the problem still occurs. I took the phone to the carphone warehouse where they installed the most recent software onto the phone but I am still convinced this is a problem with the software and not the network - never had this kind of trouble with my network and I have been with them for at least 5 years.
Cheers,
Lewis

This doesn't answer your problem completevely, but you could use an alternative messaging application. At least as a workaround if you can't get this fixed, maybe you could use it only for longer messages or something.

Or try reinstall soft.

Cheers, tried this but the problem still persisted...think I will just send the phone back and try getting a complete new handset.

It maybe the service career's fault and not the phone's.....
