HTC Wing Texting Problems ARGH

i have 2 HUGE problems that i am finally sick of
1. when i am writing a new sms and i put who to send to (To: ) and click send it says that i am not sending to another and sends me to my contact list and i have to select the person. i already have a person i am sending to and it says i have to select another person and basically i have to send the same text twice. WTF?!?!
2. when i receive a text and am writing a text or something, i DON'T click send but for some reason it would send it. most of the time this happens BEFORE i actually write a msg and am in the process of going to the text message menu to respond and it just sends a blank text. WTF?!?!
is there anyway to add an option to have you review a text and confirm it before it is actually sent?

bump anyone?

I'm not sure what you mean because I've never encountered problems like those with my Wing. I ran the stock TMobile ROM for about a week and since then I've been playing around with custom mods, etc, and I can't say I've experienced either of those issues. I own 2 Wings (long story); one is 4.10.531.2 WWE and the other was 4.10.531.3 WWE.
Some additional info might be helpful to help troubleshoot your problem and maybe even get that bump. ROM version? Is it a virgin installation (as in, you haven't installed any apps, etc)? Does it *always* happen or is it sporadic?

4.10.531.3 WWE
happens randomly. is there just not a way to have the phone confirm and review a text msg before it is sent?

bumppppppp

MMS problems

I've been trying to send a multimedia message (the size is only 46K), but the message keeps going to my outbox and is then returned to the drafts folder after an error message pops up -"Unable to send your message(s). The message(s) will remain in the Drafts folder." Has anyone else come across this? The signal/reception's strong, and the message isn't big, so that shouldn't be a problem either. I sent one yesterday without any fuss, but I'm on my fifth attempt to send one today with no luck.

are your settings good? (are you able to send an other MMS?)
I had something familiar with my 'old' touch cruise, when it wasn't able to send I retyped the message and then it was able to send (or I had to repeat this one more time)
good luck!

Thanks for replying!
I tried retyping the message, again with no luck, and then I tried sending a different message (12K in size) to a different recipient, and it did the same thing. I asked a friend to send me an MMS, which at first I didn't receive. Now, 15 minutes later, everything works normally again, and I've managed to send and receive MMS messages. I guess it must have just been problems with Orange's server. D'oh!

i got a message "unauthorized".
my operator said that he does not know what is the problem.

SMS timing issue

Hello,
I seem to be having an issue with the time stamps on my text messages. The ones that I send are okay, however the ones that I receive all have different times on them. For example:
If I send a text at 8:15PM and receive a reply right away, it'll show my text sent at 8:15PM, but the reply will have a back dated time... Maybe 5PM, 4PM... something like that.
Any ideas why?
Thanks!

I find this but its by no means universal. some messages I recive are an hour ahead others are not. I recived two messages at almost the same time & one of them had the wrong time. I can't wait for the new update to fix all of these little issues

I've seen this problem since my G1. It's still suffering from it, as is my Magic and my Hero.

I'm still having the same issue.
My received text messages show a time of 4 hours behind.
So if I send a text at 6:30 and receive a reply at 6:32, it shows 2:32 as the received time.
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this? I have updated to the latest (leaked) firmware, but still no luck.
Thanks!

Are you all on the same network? Might not be the phone because i've never noticed this

Was just going to ask this... What network are you on, have you set network location to automatic by carrier, if so, set it manually to the city / country you are in.

I'm on O2 and have been using the network provided values.
I've set it to manual and text someone at 12:44. The reply came in a little while after and was stamped 12:45 so no issue there it seems. Strange.

I'm now getting issues now with texts in fairly quick succession.
The time stamps can be the same i.e. 21:17 but a reply from someone will sometimes appear before my original text in thread view.
Also a reply came in to one of my texts with a time stamp before my original text. This was displayed "correctly" as before my text, but the fact its timestamped in this way can't be right.
Anyone else seen this?
It's like the phone is looking at minutes for accuracy, not seconds. Also taking the timestamp of when a text was sent from the other person's phone as the time received to my phone. Hm :/

I get this on Orange when I receive a message from the US. All my outgoing messages are listed at the bottom of the conversation, while the one received from the US are at the top.
UK based conversations are all threaded correctly.

Ok thanks.
It never used to be like this so I'm wondering after prolonged use the sms database gets a bit corrupted somehow?

For me it seems to behave like this: for outgoing (sent) messages I see the time that is set on Hero. For incoming messages, however, Hero shows the time on the network provider.
I assume there is some header in SMS message containing the time, and Hero uses that instead of using the time Hero has when the message arrives.
I started using the Network Provider time (automatic) to get rid of this.

SMS problem

Hey!
Can you send SMS from your HD2?
I get no error message, but my messages are not sent, I get a warning sign on the right of the message bar. Also, when I long-press it, I have "Retry send" option.
Does anyone else have the same problem? Anyone knows how to fix it?

Same for me. Any ideas?
I can receive sms but cannot reply back

Huh, got it fixed myself
How-to:
1. Settings tab
2. Menu -> More
3. Connections
4. Advanced network
5. Scroll to the last tab (SMS Service)
6. Set it to GPRS Preferred or set it to GSM (it's probably set to GPRS now). If it's already set like that by default and not working, just try to switch it
7. Reboot

I was having a similar problem..
I was on the Tube and I pressed send sms... obviously I had no signal which was fine but when I got above ground I pressed retry and absolutely nothing happened. At all.
Had to reset in the end and delete the message in the outbox and start a fresh. Bloody annoying!!

Hi,
Although this thread is ancient, i see it's still open and named "SMS problems" which is exactly what I'm suffering from.
I just purchased my new HD2 this month and ever since I got it I can't send any SMS. Whenever I try to I get a message saying "unable to send message". I have set my message center number and everything but it still didn't work. I called the HTC help center and they told me I should install the hotfix from the HTC website but when I attempted that, it said it wasn't compatible with my device????
I upgraded my official ROM from 1.66.415.3 to xxxx.4 again using the updates from HTC main site. Again I got the same message.
Up till now I'm still not sure what the problem I have is, and have no clue what the hotfix really does!
Can anyone help me out in babysteps? I'm still new to this.
PS. I did look through the other forums for something similar. It seems everyone's sending texts but to the wrong people, lol.
HELP PLEASE!

i dont know what is going on but my text messages are not being sent. i can receive messages but i cant send them. i dont know what is going on..any ideas.
i am using nokser build 23566.5.5.0. never had this problem before

i think its just a fault with windows, i have the same thing, i find texts get sent hours after i pressed send, and texts don't always get to me in time.
