I've had this problem for awhile now, and i was just thinking it was some 'quirk' with the T-mobile ROM, but recently i've installed the new ROM, and i'm getting the exact same problem, so i really am confused now :/
(I haven't installed any apps, or hacked the device in anyway btw)
Basically, i'll be composing a standard TXT, and the brightness on the screen will go to maximum (as if it's been plugged into charge) then when i come to pressing 'send' it does nothing. Then i close the messaging app, then whatever i try to load, it comes up with a 'this program is unsigned' error, all the txt on the screen does white, and basically everything looks screwed.
If i go into task manager and close the messaging app, then the screen goes back to its normal brightness, but the application errors still continue.
The only way to get around this, is by rebooting the device, but then once it's reloaded, it seems to randomly loose my latest TXTs/e-mails!
Really starting to annoy me now!
Does anyone have ANY Idea what might be causing this, or experienced this before?
Any help appreciated!
Thanks
*bump*
No one else had a similar problem?
OK and another thing ive noticed, when i go to the lock options, even if i type in an incorrect PIN, or even if i click 'ok' it just bypasses the lock screen! How s**t is that!
I've got no idea what's up with this phone, but i'm really pissed off with it now, i'm sending it to t-mobile for their engineers to look at, but im 99% sure that they'll run a few simple tests on it, and declare that it's totally fine, then send it back to me... GRRRRRRRR :evil:
hey same thing happening to me too.
mine too sometimes goes to full brightness while composing SMS. If u then switch off the phone(by power button), it comes up with a message box asking for driver. In the end, i hv to reboot the device.
And the poor part is that it doesnt happens all the times. This has started happening to since I have upgraded to latest imate ROM(I have O2 Exec). I had similar problem with the latest Qtekk ROM.
The only thing i d not installed was 'ms_.nbf' from both of the ROMs,which is actually represent the 'extended rom' of HTC devices.

Ahh, well i'm glad im not the only one!
I'm going to assume it's a hardware issue..... possibly..... because ive had the exact same problem on the past 2 t-mobile ROMs. So annoying :S
why dont u give a try to other ROMs like imate, qtekk. May be, you do away with this 'annoying' problem somehow

Well i've had problems with the past 2 T-mobile ROMs, so i'm thinking that it's not really an issue with the software.. but i really dont know. Have you fixed the problem, or are you still getting it?

I used to suffer from this problem at least 2-3times a day. And it was very frustrating too.
Till now, not a single problem with latest qtekk ROM, FABULOUS is the word for it !!
No problem at all till now. Popper, you should give it a try now

Hmmm I might give that a go. Which ROM contains all the network setting information? Was that the "ms_.nbf" file you mentioned?
Thanks
yes, its the ms_.nbf which contains the network settings. In other words, it the one, which represents the extended rom of your device

Well that crappy problem has happened again today, so in a minute im gonna install the latest QTEK ROM, fingers crossed
I dont ****ing know what to do anymore.
I have a standard HTC p4350, i hard resetted one time only, i have NO apps running on it, and i dont have a ****ing signal from my provider. This is KPN Hi (Holland) and i cant seem to fix it. I updated the radio yesterday to 3.18.90, but it still the same! Everytime i only have 1 lil bar which goes away when i try to make a call. I cant be called, or sometimes receive the text message 2 days after its been send. I really dont know what to do, SOMEONE PLZ HELP!
RMA sounds like your hardware is going out.
I dont know, everything is working fine, except for the signal connection. WiFi is working fine for example.
Well if you updated the radio on it and it is still no good and you have a warranty send it back for repairs or replacement.
i heard that one of the radios (one of the newer ones) actually kills reception
I am using 03.21.90 and all is great hell my battery life has improved extremely.
Yea ill send it back i think then..
if u r goin to sell ur device, PM me
im looking for a device for new-solution testing purposes

Mine did the same thing, and it turned out to be a bad sim card. Try using a friends card in your phone, and your card in their phone and see what happens.
I did, they have the best signal, i dont.

I would try flashing to a different radio version. I think I read about some issues with the one you are using.
Which one do you suggest?

I use the radio that came with Open Touch 3.0 and it works great. I'm not sure what version it is, or if you can download it separately.
I am aware that many HD2 users are having this problem, but its getting to the point that its really pissing me off! My sim card is almost falling apart because of the amount of times im having to take it out and put it back in just to send messages!
Are there any solutions? other than turning off HTC Sense?
Thanks ppl.
1st thing to know: Which ROM Version are you using?
2nd thing: Did you install the SMS hotfix from HTC?
3rd thing: Are your sms center settings okay for your provider?
4th thing: I wrote a few hundreds SMS since I have the HD2 and there has never been a single problem with sending.

i updated to 1.66 and although i only used it for a day because my unit was a duff one, the problem seemed to go. Upgrade if you can as i've heard that 1.66 fixes it.
In the mean time you don't need to take your sim out.
This worked for me:
When messages get stuck in oubox:
soft reset. Send txt message to self, this will then release the stuck messages.

That doesnt sound like the same problem everyone else had. Everyone else just restarted the phone and they sent, no need to take out the sim card.
I had exactly the same problem (although it couldn't be fixed by removing and reinserting the SIM, or restarting the phone)
I tried absolutely everything, and i was never ever able to send a text.
However i did fix it by getting a new SIM from my network, i don't know whether what they told me is true but apparently some older 32bitSIM's are incompatable but the newfangled 64bit ones are.
once i inserted the new SIM i have had absolutely no sms issues
Skycamefalling:
1) ROM Version: 1.43.405.1 (70124)
2) No i havent installed the hotfix, where can i find it?
3) Yes i imagin they are the same as i haven't changed anything...
And bubblubbly, thats the first thing Vodafone did wen i reported the problem to then months ago, they sent me a new sim but it didn't make a difference at all.

1) Update to the latest ROM for your country (should be 1.66 I guess). Before updating, please backup your data, because the Phone-Memory will be deleted.
2) At the HTC Homepage www.htc.com. Same as where you'll find your ROM update.
3) Hmm...would be good to know for sure. But try the ROM-Update first.
Hi, I got the following SMS this morning from T-Mobile, "You'll soon receive the download to update your T-Mobile HD2. It's free & there's no charge for the download, all you need to do is accept. T-Mobile".
Now, this dont sound right. Firmware files are normally huge and I have never had a message like this before. I have the 1.66 stock ROM and not the 1.72 T-Mobile one which is pants.
Has anyone else had this message or the updates and if so what are the updates.
Thanks
John
I got a text from them when they released the 1.72. It wasnt worded like that though....... and I havent had a message like that from them recently.
Maybe they're going to send you Android to run on your HD2
Or maybe not............

Really? Do you think so?
Wow that would be sooooooo kewl.
I got the exact same message about two weeks ago, I'm still waiting to see what official crap they throw out if anything!
never had anything of that sort... ever. only found out about the new ROM on XDA.
Same message received today still no further details
yes i have the text its downloaded tk my handset and keeps asking me to install, not untill i know whats in it!
Install what?? Is it a link to something or did they actually send you a file.........
Just received the same text. Have noticed connection issues over the past few days, this update maybe something to do with this?? It's not going to be a rom update as that would be huge and would obviously wipe the phone on install - something that T-mob cannot legally force on you surely?
PS anyone get this message running a stock t-mobile rom. Mine's Stock HTC 1.66 - they might be on to us defectors
Just noticed on HTC rss feed that O2 had a UTMS900 update for HD2, this may be what we are getting.
I'm so glad you wrote this post OP! I was going to ask about that text, which I also received this morning, over on the T-Mobile forum but my forum user details are not what I thought they were so couldn't log in.
Like a few of you have written here, I'm not installing it until I know what it is. I'm afraid of all my phone content and contacts being wiped.
I also received a text about a ROM update just like the first respondent to this thread but I didn't want to ruin what is already a working phone!
count me in too.
Same message as the OP. Uk Tmob
Thanks guys for all the feedback. I am defy NOT installing anything on my phone until I know exactly what it is and what it does.
John
has anyone installed the update yet? where on the phone would it have been automaticly downloaded to?

Link hasn't been sent yet.
there is no link the data has already been downloaded to the handset, and just requires installation, T.mobile technical(hhmmm) have no idea "its just an improvement to your handset sir" bring back uk call centers that dont have to stick to a script 100% of the time.
anyone got any more news on this? Have posted a message on the t-mobile forum but won't hold my breath as they will probably come back and say what is a mobile phone
I still havent got this bloody message......... I feel kinda left out now.....
Received today:
"You’ll soon receive the download to update your T-Mobile HD2. It’s free & there’s no charge for the download, all you need to do is accept. T-Mobile"
Written by some sort of PR / communication department half-wit or a spammer/scammer but WTF does it mean ?
received mine today as well.......
Ok so I just gave my rooted fascinate to a friend and the first ROM I tried the sms wasnt working it would just send blank messages and it wouldnt receive any. The stock messenger and any from the market did the same so I thought it might have been the ROM but I flashed a new one onto it and it did the same thing so im stuck and dont know what is wrong or how to fix it. Anyone know how to fix this problem?
what does baseband say in menu/settings/about phone?
good day.
not sure on that i dont have it in front of me at the moment but what should it say? i can check tomorrow when i have it in front of me

Could you make calls?? I'm assuming you can and is just sms, cause you wouldn't have signal to begin with.. have you checked your carrier SMS number. It's different then your voicemail number, and its found in the settings of the stock sms.
