Anyone else have this issue? I was updating from 2.17 out of the box. Should I have updated to an earlier version first then to 3.35?
Also is there anyone that can explain repeating text messages and how it could possibly be fixed. Obviously nothing I can really do. Ive tried hard resets and rom updates nothing fixed it. It was fixed for 3 days when I was given a new phone, the messages began to repeat slowly but still allowed other messages to come, now it just repeats one message over and over. Funny how changing a phone fixed it for three days when it hadnt worked for 3 months.?????
Im at a loss. Any suggestions would be great!

Hey!
Dunno if this was already posted on the site, I did a search on it and it didn't show up for the HTC Whitestone (Imagio), so I thought this could come in handy when it does happen to you (or to anyone with TF3D enabled really..)
My Imagio went crazy one day because I received over 40 text messages (I returned to the states and turned on my phone after only 2 days of no service overseas) and the blue blimp that normally counts messages remained frozen at 1 even after erasing all of my texts.
After some research I came up across FixUnreadCount , a program built back in 2004 or so which addresses this problem, although I dunno how it works since TF3D didn't exist back in 2004.
Anyways I ran the tiny exec in my Imagio, and viola! It solved my problems.
UPDATE: Didn't know there was a post about it less than 5 days ago, woops! :X
NOTE: you may require a restart upon completion, so make sure you dont have any unsaved programs running in the background!
Ok so not to sound guy or anything but I could kiss you I just spent an hour and a half on the phone with verizon just so they could do nothing and in 30 seconds this fix my phone your my hero.
Thanks
Yeah i found this on another forum after i did a HR (Hard Reset) only to have it come back after i finished setting up my phone again. So i did a second and found this little gem while i was setting up yet again. Only to have it happen a third time in two days.... Luckly i had this already and no more hard resets
Am I alone in this problem? I've read through the forums, and I don't see anything about it.
Here's what happens: I'm going along my merry way, receiving text messages, when all of a sudden, every text I try and send fails. Everything else works fine. But NO outgoing sms. If I try and reset the radio by going into airplane mode, it will get stuck trying to go into airplane mode and I have to reset.
The sad part is, I'm running a stock rom, and I've only gone so far as to unlock the bootloader.
Any ideas?
Also, I should mention that while this happens, I can still receive sms. Usually to the tune of "hello???", "why aren't you answering me???"

This used to happen to me all the time and it was always annoying the hell out of me. It sill happens once in a while but not as much as it used to. To solve my issue I updated to newest radio and the latest cyan mod. It might just be the T-Mobile network bugging out. I don't k know for sure. Hope this helps somewhat.
I'll try the new radio. But man does it piss me off. It didn't happen too often, but it happened 3 times lastnight alone. Making me want to do something about it.
I'll try the radio today and see how it goes.
I have this problem every now and then, simply have to restart the phone, nothing else solves it!
this used to happen on my g1. it would continue to fail at sending texts until i reboot the phone. and i remember it happening on my nexus but not it seems it has not happend since i updated to the newest radio and CM5.
I am having this exact same issue and its really disappointing since I really love this phone I haven't rooted and just running the stock firmware and I am on Rogers Network in Canada... could it a few defective phones? anyone have any more info or fixes other then reboot and rooting?
I have since switched to modaco's desire rom and everything is working much better now. I'm even using the google mms.apk for my text messaging(i don't like the htc one), and everything works fine. I haven't had it happen yet, and I've been using this rom for weeks now.
If anybody is having this issue, I suggest you try it. The modaco rom is nearly flawless.

I second, apparently instead of addressing the nexus issues Google is working onthe next major update so hopefully that will come with fixes for all of the bugs, exciting things are coming...
What the heck? I had at least 600+ txt messages from all different people, and now they're all gone?!?! I sent a txt message (stock, not rooted, using google's Messaging app), put my phone into sleep mode, woke up my phone a few minutes later to send another msg, and was greeted by an empty thread (with a bud's phone number there but none of the prev. messages), and there were no messages/threads anymore
The exact same thing has happened to me twice so far...
Yep. This happens ALL THE TIME with me. I've been having MyBackup Pro run nightly backups so I don't lose important information. This is a serious bug for me and it's cost me some info that could not be recovered before that I really needed.
I've never had a smartphone that has done this but the Nexus does it about once a week. Now I only lose a few messages when it happens since I back up every night, but the fact the issue is there at all and it just happens randomly is really disheartening. Rooting and using a custom ROM has not helped.
Have all of you tried disabling auto delete?
Yeah, that's not related to this issue. You can have auto-purge off and it will still happen after a while. Just randomly erases everything.
That's odd, this is the first time im hearing of this. I've never had my phone delete anything i didn't want it to.
Maybe it's something to do with the ROM you're using or some tweaks you've done.
Try using a stock rom for a while or something and see if the problem persists
I've heard this happening many times now, and every time it was when using the built in messaging app. So I've used hand cent from day 1.
interesting. this happened to me also. only one time though so far..*knocks on wood.
never had it happen to me (knock on wood) thats a very weird problem :\
This has happened top me once on my Nexus in three months.
It's on the buglist here - http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5669 where they are asking for logs to help identify the issue.
There are already a couple of threads about this. It's not just the Nexus - it seems to be 2.x

For the record, while it only happened to me once, it did happen to me and I've never rooted or installed any custom ROMs (I even waited for the official OTA for update 1 to hit me in due order).
Luckily I had a 2-week old backup of SMS to restore and I've since set a nightly backup schedule for SMS/MMS and call log via MyBackupPro.
One thing that may contribute is that I am a pack rat and so have every message that I've gotten since I got my G1 in 10/08 (ignoring that one purge due to this bug and the time when I forgot to turn off auto-deletes and didn't notice until a couple of weeks later). I have threads with several hundred messages in them for the friends I text most...
It does seem to happen to us pack rats, and not very often to those who don't hoard messages. I read somewhere that it was suspected to be an overflow error of some sort, and that people had managed to prevent it by keeping the auto-delete function active.
I am not prepared to do that however. I don't want to deliberately delete my messages that I have worked so hard to collect. I would rather google fixed it.
Hopefully froyo will bring a solution to our problem.
I got my HD2 about a week ago, and from the moment I turned it on it's been telling me that I have 1 voicemail waiting. Except that I don't. I've checked my box multiple times just to be certain, nothing in there. I've tried dismissing the notice, it comes back. It constantly displays "1" in the lock screen. I've even flashed a custom ROM (Energy 23569, Jun 8) and it STILL says 1 voicemail waiting! How do I get rid of this phantom voicemail and have it report accurately?
I had that same problem for a while. I just fixed itself after I flashed to a certain energy rom.
I was having the same problem with mine. It was showing that I had a new voicemail from the moment I bought it. I just called T-Mobile and asked them to reset my voicemail box. The girl was very nice and when she tried to explain to me about the new HD2 update they had released, I hinted that I didn't have the stock ROM on my phone and she explained that was totally no problem. They know that with the current technology that people are doing that. She reset my voicemail box and the notification went away. You will have to setup your voicemail again after they reset it, but that takes no time at all.
same this is so annoying! any fixes will be much appreciated.
**** I just found this, might help. I have not tried it yet.
I had the same problem when I got mine. To fix it, all I did was go to the T-Mobile store and ask them for a new SIM card, they did a quick switch and it was gone, but im sure a custom ROM works too
Hi there my xda-friends!
Every since I updated my phone to Froyo (official) I've had two problems. I unrooted my phone before I updated to 2.2.
The first one is pretty strange. A friend of mine says that my phone sends him a text with about five minutes delay, which says that I have received the text he sent me. He also has a Legend with Froyo on it, but so does my sister, and she doesn't receive any texts from me (except the ones I sent her of course).
This can be solved by restarting my phone, but it begins sending "I've read your text now"-messages to my friend again after about a day. Both me and my friend have tried to remove our conversations and such, (oh, and I still see the sort-by-time bug with my texts, but I think that's because the messages-app doesn't sort my seconds, only minutes).
The other problem I have is that I can't receive calls after a random amount of days, and I can see that my mobile-internet is trying to connect, gets a connection and drops it after a few seconds, and repeats, seen by the internet-icon in the system-bar(?). Then I know something is wrong with my phone (this time, I wasn't able to receive calls).
But again, this can be resolved by restarting my phone, but that shouldn't be necessary, everything worked in 2.1!
I would like Not to factory reset my phone, if you guys have any tips I could try before I'm forced to trying force-resetting.

Alright. That's too bad. But now I've factory-reset it, and so far it feels a little snappier than before, and I got the new market-app with the green skin almost immediately, so maybe something was aching up
