hi all
i have my new trusty TyTN (SPV M3100) and well my problem is that everytime i send a Text message, it sends it twice! the exact same message twice!
i type out a 1 page text and it sends 2 ...
and i don't know what to do because its using up my credit so quickly!!
one sorta-fix is that as soon as i press the "send" button, if i go straight to the Outbox, and watch it dissappear, it seems to only send it once...and also sends it a lot quicker than minimising the messaging program
any advice? i've had a look around and can't really find anyone else with the same problem
One quick thing to check is that you do not have duplicates in your contact list. Can happen if you import contacts using sim manager.
Others have reported opposite problem I.e. it says cannot send message when in fact it has sent message!

You know - I'm having the exact same problem. I do use goodlink and are using the good contact list as well as I the sim contact list - is there anyway turn off the sim contacts?
The problem with mine is that usually I would reply to a txt message, and then when I get a response back - it sends the previous message again. It's really annoying.
Any help would be appreciated!
Oh yeah I have a Cingular 8525.
perhaps you have spb pocketplus (or a similar program that allows an application to be fully closed) and you exited the messaging program before the messages were sent. if so, place tmail.exe in the exceptions list.
ahh yes I do have SPB pocketplus.
I am new to the WM platform, could you please clarify how I can add tmail.exe in the exceptions list? where can I find this exceptions list you speak of?
Thanks!
Vinny
i believe the options will be available by clicking on the spb pocketplus icon in its today plug-in, as well as in the today settings (start > settings > personal > today > items).
Yep correct. You open your "Messaging" application. Then, you directly open SpB Pocket Plus (its either an icon on the today screen or you will find it in the Settings: System: Spb Pocket Plus". Then you click on "Close Button" and press the button "Feature Option". Select the "Exceptions" drawer and press "Add" - there you can choose "Add last used program" -> it should be tmail.exe since "Messaging" was your last application. Thats it!
So i changed from the 8125 to the wing and I have discovered it is much more difficult to send a new text message. You have to go through like 5 different commands...(open the message bar, select text message account, tap menu, scroll to new, scroll to sms) it just seems so tedious so i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to make it so i can have new message be one of my soft key choices (preferably where the delete soft key is). Its really annoying.
Thanks BP
How about when you install the HTC Home plugin, I HAD one until i bricked my phone yesterday :'( it came with the PDAVIET rom which was released some time ago.
What it does is, it shows on the Today screen a link to Email and one to SMS.
That's probably the fastest way.
Cheers
how 'bout putting the command "new sms" under a softkey ?
Or simply install the program "name" (sorry forgot the name) that puts a "New" menu at your left soft-key in the today screen, from there you can choose sms, e-mail, mms etc.. Just search for New menu
Press Contacts softkey. Scroll to the intended recipient. Tap, hold, pick "Send Text Message". Type text message. Press Send softkey.
What's the problem?
How About VIJay?
Hello,
I use VijaySMS All the time... It allows you to make a shortcut (I use SPB Today so I create the shortcuts in there) that either starts a blank SMS or start one to a specific contact. You can find the program at Vijay's webpage here: http://www.vijay555.com/
Enjoy!
You could set up the Message button to automatically go to your SMS Inbox when you press it.
Messaging Inbox > Menu > Tools > Options...
Select Text/SMS and uncheck "Display account picker when opening Messaging." This will automatically open your SMS Inbox, thus eliminating the first two steps of your problem.
I have 2 unread SMS showing in the slide2unlock screen and on the SPB shell icon. I deleted ALL of the SMS messages (drafts, outbox, etc. too). Yet still it shows 2 unread. I have threaded SMS installed. Is there a way to clear the unread messages?
I had that problem as well with threaded sms, even though i had gone into the program and read the texts the htc home plugin and the threaded sms today plugin still told me I had 3 sms messages waiting for me. I couldn't get rid of it until the next day someone else texted me, then the popup notification window came up telling me I had 4 texts, I clicked the option "save as read" (or maybe it was dismiss) and they all went away, see if you can get someone to text you and try that maybe?
Tried that....didn't help
I've had this happen too. I fixed it by uninstalling the threaded SMS application, then when I went into the stock SMS app, I saw an unread text message that the threaded app didn't know about. I think it has to do with installing the threaded SMS application when you have one or more unread texts. Who knows. Anyway, delete it, reinstall, and that should fix it.
there should still be a way to access the default text messaging folder even if you have threaded sms installed, too bad that option doesn't seem to be included (that i've seen) with any threaded progs I've seen yet. Hopefully the uninstall works for you.
my problem is a little different.
i am using the default messaging app and it tells me I have one unread message.
i have selected ALL messages and set to "mark all as unread". at this point it shows "126 messages, 127 unread".
anyone know how i can fix this....?
Thanks
I resolved the problem by uninstalling Threaded SMS. I saw the 2 unread messages, deleted them, then re-installed Threaded SMS.

I have the same problem on my Kaiser (wm6 htc shipped). I'm using default messaging app and it happens on HTC Home plugin and in msg app in "Select account" screen and on folder change screen (counter shows "1" next to "Inbox" even if i delete all messages from all folders)
It doesn't happen on SPB Diary plugin (here counter works ok) and also when I don't have any new messages, there isn't any "notification"/"new msg icon" on wm top bar (next to the Start button).
I know it is not Kaiser forum and this thread is little bit old, but I was looking for some fix across all xda-dev site and the only one thread i found is this.
If someone knows how to fix my problem (without making Hard Reset) it would be great
The only way I have been able to fix unread count since I am operating the OEM 6.1 threaded sms is to open up reg editor HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\
Then change from SMSAvailable from 1 to 0, Close out the reg editor and select messages then go through and read the text message that is in bold(has not been read).
After this go back into reg editor adn go back to above value and change back from 0 to 1 and should be back in business. I may have to do this once a month due to a hung message. this always fixes it. Not sure if this will work for the folks using Cody's Threaded. I believe that it will, due to making the messages show up under the normal messaging folder.
Let me know if this works for you...it always works for me.

I am having HTC Touch(GSM) 128MB ROM & 64 MB SDRAM UNLOCKED(originall bought from UK, having Orange Connection). Recently I was fidling my device with phm registry editor, and some how what happend I dont know, But now the new sms counter which displays on the home screen tabs is not incrementing. If any new sms comes the counter remains '0'. Can ANY ONE please help. One more thing is there any ROM update for my set?
I have had this issue again in the last two days after flashing Ark_N's latest ROM for TP2.
What I have done just now is tap on the sms icon/button, tapped "all messages" text that appeared after tapping the sms icon/button, tap "menu", selected "settings", selected "traditional mode", scrolled down the messages till I came to a text message that was unread (bold type), read it by selecting it.
After that, I selected the "menu" button, selected "settings", then "conversation mode", "back", and pressed the "home" button (hardware button). And guess what? the issue was gone.
Hope this helps.

worked for me! Thank you corwinb
I just installed WM6.1 and I am going to use the stock SMS Program. I would like to have a SMS Softkey on the home screen so when I press it it opens up text messaging. I know how to edit the registry and I already have it saying SMS I just dont know the value to put in so it opens up Text messaging and not just messaging in general?
Also if there is a way to change the left soft key in text messaging from Delete to New that would make my day!!!
To get it to point to Text Messaging, make sure your link points to
"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS"
Hi all! This is my first post here and I have a predicament. I use the HTC Home today plugin with the HTC Home Customizer. I also use SMS-Chat as my preferred SMS program. However if I want to use SMS chat, instead of the default messaging program, I have to go to start > SMS Chat, or Launcher > SMS chat. This isn't a major deal, however I would like to be able to just push the middle SMS link on HTC Home and have it pull up SMS chat. Is there a way I can edit the path it uses? I would like to keep the leftmost messaging link the same, so that I can still check my email and mms easily, but I would like the sms link just for SMS-Chat. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
