MDA Vario II - T-Mobile.
On my 'Today' screen, it informs me that I have 4 text messages. When I click on the 'link' there is nothing in my text messages 'inbox'.
I've even sent on from another phone, and I can't see it anywhere!
Has anyonr got any advice?
Thanks
Ratzz :twisted:
are you sure you're definately in the text messages inbox?
if you click on 'inbox' (top left) it'll show you a list of directories;
imap4
mms
outlook email
text messages
then click on text messages to go to the inbox folder.
appologies if you know this already! :lol:
Yep - that's exactly where I'm looking - and I have checked all the other folders (services) too.
There is absolutely nothing there - although I can, and do have emails.
weird! do your text messages flash up on the today screen (preview) when you receive them?
Have you restored your settings from an old backup? This can cause problems in PIM sometimes...
[bigshape]
I don't have a preview on the today screen, just a notification:
"Text Messages: 4 Unread"
Clicking on this brings me to the 'Text Messages Inbox" but there is nothing there!
[pof]
No, I haven't done a restore - I've had my phone one week.
Also(!)
When I send a text message from the phone (after clicking on send) it remains in the "Outbox" and does not get sent.
Anyone got any ideas?
soft reset your tytn or keep opening text inbox, it will evently shows up
thanks netboy, i had a message waiting to be delivered, and the soft reset sent it - however, the today screen stll says i have 5 messages and there is nothing in my inbox.
Have you received any text messages since you noticed the problem? if no, have you tried asking a friend to send you a text to see if that makes them all come through at the same time? worth a try, it might fix it
Hi Nicky - I've just sent a text from my old phone, and I am receiving them, but still cannot find the other 5!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!
I also had this problem, i used this software to reset the unread count: http://home.comcast.net/~relmerator/
Hello, forgive my newbie ignorance please.
I have a new O2 Hermes, which I have flashed to Cingular:
RUU_HER_Cingular_1.34.502.1_1.16.00.00_wwe_cws_ship
I have attempted the QWERTY-QWERTZ registry fix, but am not yet successful (no big problem).
What is vexing me is that Messaging will not display incoming SMS -- inbox is always empty, but the Start menu says I have Text Messages Unread.
I am also unable to send SMS -- I press 'SEND' and the message sits in the outbox forever -- no error message. I know my SMS gateway is configured correctly, and I can't see anything else to configure except Unicode support.
I also know my account is set up for SMS because I can put my SIM in a conventional handset and it works in and outbound.
My colleague who has the identical Xda with the identical ROM does not have this problem.
Any ideas?

is the inbox for the email or the sms or outlook...etc ?
seems simple but I can't find any other reason, there are a couple of inboxes check to see which one you're currently at you can switch through them,
seeing as it says you have unread messages I assume sms is working fine.
Messages clarification
when I click on the 'Text Messages: 8 unread', the device goes to 'Text Messages'
header is 'Inbox' and 'Received'.
the screen is blank exept for the footer 'Text Messages 0 items.
If I click on 'Inbox', I see the different folders 'MMS' (empty), 'Outlook 'Email' (which has the working outlook stuff), and 'Text Messages', which has 'Inbox' empty and 'Outbox' (1) -- the message that refuses to be sent.
It is bizarre behaviour.
I can't send MMS either; composed and 'sent' but stuck in outbox with an envelope+Xsymbol.... (but MMS is more complicated, and not as important to me)
go to messages,
click on menu/tools options,
what accounts do you have there?
you might need to setup a new text message account although it should be there automatically you might need to change the service number.
Hi Phm,
Sound like your SMS center number is not set right - could be wrong but check it here > Start > Settings > Personal > Phone - On the services tab click 'Voice Mail and Text Messages' > Get Settings. The numbers returned should be those as used by your network...

Hi Gavin, Hi Darky.
My Messages:toolsptions has accounts:
* Text Messages
MMS
New Account....
text messages only has option 'unicode y/n'.
settingshone:voicemail/text shows:
Text message service centre: +1 (705) 796-9300
Voice Mail: +1 9604) 418-3471
which are correct for Rogers.
for giggles I retype the SMSc entry.
in PHM regedit (not the same PhM ;-) )
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\SMS contains Datagram, Status and TextShared, all empty.
System\State\Messages contains
OtherEmail\Unread (Count:6)
SMS\Unread (count 8, Text 'Text Messages...'
sync (name activesync, unread count 0)
TotalEmail\Unread (count 6)
Vmail line1,2, total (unread count 0)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
comm\cellular\SMS\Protocols\Notification
AppName tmail.exe
and a bunch of other parameters
subtlety: some of the entries point to AppName tmail.exe and others point to \Windows\tmail.exe. (explicit path)
Can I assume there's a path similar to old desktop windows?
HKLM\comm\cellular\SMS\Router and Store are empty.
that's all I see in the registry that might be relevant.
HKLM\Services\SMSReciever looks in order.
Next thing I'll try is reflash the system. But that's a bit like trying to start the car with one foot on the ground.
Hi,
In mine I can see and read SMS, but can't send. Today I found the reason is probably that I got a 32kb SIM' card. My operator is sending me a 64kb. 128kb do also exist.
Not sure this can be linked to your issue though...
SIM size and SMS?
Hi Prerna, interesting idea.
what makes it weird is that I was able to send and receive messages with the 'old' O2 flash. SMS broke when I loaded the Cingular flash I am still using my old Rogers SIM (vintage 2003 or so).
Maybe it's time to upgrade.
/PhM
re-flash helps
Well, I spent an hour, downgraded to the original O2 ROM, then upgraded to the Cingular ROM, and now SMS works again.
I have not yet tried to do the registry tweaks to restore the QWERTZ keyboard.
I wonder if maybe I accidentally broke something when I was poking around in the registry.
For now, SMS is working and that's the main thing

I could send and recived SMS but some SMS don't work (the one who tell me I've a message)
and apparently it's a know issue from my provider ...

i had such problem too until i uninstall the sunnysoft vcard software. After that sms goes fine.
Text Message: 6 Unread - but no messages
There are 6 unread text messages on my today screen but when I highlight it to view it, there are no messages to be read. I keep getting text messages and the counter just adds up but there are no messages at all.
Anyone have any ideas how to solve this? Your help is highly appreciated, thanks!

Hi
You can try the following application. It removes spurious unread message count from the today screen and resets it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=32766&d=1167695488
However - I am curious, is it the case that genuine messages are being received but that you just can't view them?

I had the same problem when I upgraded to any of the WM6 Roms, some days smses worked and others it would just store the smses in the outbox and if someone sent me a sms my phone display would come on but wouldn't indicate a sms, yet my friend would get a delivery report, so all i did was just downgarde to the latest WM5 Rom and problem solved.
Help me please
When I go on the SMS and email tabs it goes onto messages screen then nothing comes up and touchflo 3d re-launches, plus if i open a contact and tap on new sms it doesnt do anything.
I am not recieving any text messages either and it will not work if i go to start / messaging (nothing happens)
I haven't flashed any roms but have ran a few cabs, I would rather not hard reset can anyone help
Ok, in addition to the major SMS Outbox problem (which incidently hasn't happened for several days now), I've noticed two other minor issues related to the messaging:
A few times I've received a message, and then gone to read the message. I tend to use the Phone Keypad for writing messages.
Anyway occasionally (probably one in thirty texts), when I try to write a reply to the message, when typing on the keypad, it writes the numbers instead of the letters. Changing to another keypad and back doesn't resolve it, only when I exit messaging.
Second issue is sometimes I go to rely to a message, and I try to select where is says tap to compose a message, and it takes a good 3-4 seconds before it response to a tap so that I can actually start to write the message.
Anyone else have any similar problems?
I've also had the numbers problem, I thought it was related the SPB or Resco keyboards I'd installed, but after a hard reset and not installing these apps, it's still there...although only very rarely now
Hi Guys and Gals....
2 quickies...
Whatever happened to being able to spell check sms messasges? My Exec could do it.
Also, i am having trouble writing txt messages the screen kinda just scrambles while i am typing and then will eventually come back with all of my txt displayed accurately. Anyone else got this prob?
thanks

Thanks Wacky, I had already actually read most of that thread but couldn't see anything with the same problem that I have.
Everything about my SMS is painfully slow. Just pressing the sms icon can cause the phone to lock up or even crash. Normal typing in a word doc for eaxmple is a pleasure, in an sms it's difficult.
All of sms's are sending straight away and being recieved. It's just the erratice behave that the software goes through whenever i want to send a txt
I want my "SPELL CHECK" sms messages back as well. how do we get this back?
