This has happened to me twice already in 1 month.
1. SMS sent by my wife showed up in thread of another person in the messaging client. However, when I click the SMS bubble to go into the SMS, it shows on the top bar that it's sent by my wife.
2. I received an SMS from Mr X, so went into the conversation thread of Mr X to reply him. The SMS however, was sent to Mr Y! When I checked, the SMS sent was reflected in the thread of Mr X, but when I click on the SMS bubble to go in, it shows that it's sent to Mr Y. What is worse is when I exit the thread, it shows that it is Mr X's conversation thread, but when I go in, it becomes Mr Y's, with all conversations between X and Y in that thread! BTW, X and Y have 2 very different mobile nos.
Now I am very scared to send SMS, not knowing if it will get sent to somebody else! Anyone encountered this? Any remedy?
i had something weird like this and put it down to me being silly clicking the wrong thing.
I also notice that when i send a sms to "hannah" sometimes the name "helen" is shown at the notification bar which of course ****s me up considering some of the conversations i have!
can't quite put my finger on whats going on to give a full explanation but i noticed something odd too...
Sounds scary.
Do you guys get any feedback from the phone that the message was sent successfully? I don't, and find that troubling.
in the conversation window as soon as i click send the sms content turns into a "sending...." then once sent displays the sms content again. on a unsuccessful sms the phone notifies you and the sms colour turns grey.
maybe try dropping your signal somehow, flight mode or something and try sending a sms and see if it notifies you on a unsuccessful sms.

Would be nice if there is an audio feedback, but your suggestion is good.

you could play around with the delivery reports in the SMS options menu, i believe they are carrier related though?
my phone does vibrate when i recieve a failed sent sms message though, maybe this could be customised with a notification ringtone. i currently have it on silent since i get like 30 twitters an hour.
On my phone, if a message is sent successfully, the date and timestamp will appear on the lower right of the sms bubble. If it's not successful, the bubble is grey and both the sms notification ringtone will play and notification appear in the notification bar

That's what I thought too when I had that option on, but it does not notify me.
Upgrade to JG3, it was a problem in JG1.
Strange, I don't hear the ringtone or the notification.

it's just a software glitch, i've had this problem with some 3rd party SMS software in my windows phone, so reverted to the stock SMS software, however in SGS it seems ok so far.
there is a 3rd party SMS apps for SGS "ChompSMS" check it out, it might solve the problem the few of you are experiencing
No problems here, 250~ SMS already sent this month.
Argh! It happened again this morning. Using handcent now. a pity as I find the stock messaging app to be quite good

Using DXJF4. Asian version.
hey guys searched but did not find the answer....
I just got the Tmobile g2 and im new to android OS, had a TP2 before. How can I set the MMS message of a contact to stay on longer? When I view a picture message it just stays on for a couple seconds then goes right back to the text message. Is there any setting that I can make this longer?
Also is there a setting somewhere that can make it so that when I click the contact's picture, it will dial that contact automatically? I had this feature in my TP2 and would love to set it up like that.
Thanks in advance all
I would recommend downloading chompsms. I just did this for the first time last week and it blows away the standard android sms app.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

SMS notification bug
Hello, I wonder if some one here have same problem: Some times my HTC Desire Z with latest ROM doesn't want to notify me that sms is received, and I should randomly go in to Messages folder and find out there that there are some unread messages. It is not a Settings problem, because it is happening randomly. Let's assume every 10 or 15 message will be missed. Also, If i see that there are unread messages, i can read them from Messages folder, not from notification bar. And if I do so, notification in notification bar will not disappear, until i clear it manually... really strange. Thanks for solutions.

The length of each slide is decided when composing the MMS. If the sender sets it to 7 seconds (5 is default) then it will only be on for 7s. Save the attachment and you can view it for longer.

Factory restore after update helped to solve this problem
Desire Z
I have the same issue and it wasnt this way on the vibrant or the original MyTouch 3G. When someone sends an MMS, say a picture message, it shows up as a short 10 second video. I have tried saving as an attachment but didnt seem to allow me to do that.
I found this very odd, and couldn't find answers to it...but everytime I send a text, I close out to my homescreen and when I go back to the message log, the last text I sent is back in the "input text" part saved as a draft...but the message has sent cause I receive replies back.
This happens EVERY time. I've tried hard reset, I've tried pulling the battery...nothin.
Anyone else experienced this?
Yes, this also happens to me. It's not a bug. When you close out of the Messaging app too fast, it will save the message as draft but it will also send it if you pressed Send. This can get quite annoying sometimes since I'm used to closing out as soon as I send.
As the title said, just recently, and for no discernable reason, I am not getting text messages. However, because I had turned it on in GoSMS (the sms app I am using), I can see the text come in, and actually read it as it scrolls in the notification bar. I can even go to the messing app and reply without any problem, at which point, I start seeing the messages from the other person. But that is the only time I see messages...when I am in the app.
Has anyone ever encountered anything like this? I deleted the stock messaging app at one time maybe a week ago (to try and avoid multiple sms notifications), but I have since extracted it from a backup and reinstalled it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
Bonjour, when I send a sms or read a sms from a contact and I go out of the messaging app, if I choose the app again to lets say send a new message, it always bring me back into the last message I was.
Is there a way to set the messaging app so that when I press the envelope, it goes to my list of message sent/receive and not into my last message. I always have to use the back arrow and it makes me loose time.
Any clue anyone?

thats because the app doesnt close it stays in background, youd have to press the arrow either way either press it before you leave the app or press it once you reenter it
did you try closing the app in the task manager?
should fix your problem
