Bit of an odd one here...
I recently flashed my T-Mobile Touch Plus with Mary 6.1 and radio 1.21.21.23S and it all worked ok, except battery life was a bit short. Have just flashed with radio 1.58.21.23 and SMS/MMS has gone, it does not appear in messaging (my google mail also disappeared). I tried sending a message to the device and the back light comes one but nothing appears on the screen (notifications etc...)
Has anyone else had this problem?
Can i just add SMS/MMS back into the Messaging app? (if so, how?)
or do i need to do something more serious?
Any help appreciated.
Sorted, all came back after a reinstall.

I've had this problem occur a few times now, and in both circumstances, it's resulted in the loss of data, either composed TXT messages or e-mails (very, VERY annoying) So hopefully someone knows what maybe causing this:
The first time it happened, i was composing an e-mail (hotmail), and 1/2 way through composing the email, the screen went brighter (as if it was charging!), i ignored that, thinking i was just imagining it, then when i came to send the e-mail, every time i pressed send (either via the softkey, or by using the screen) it just did nothing... So i decided to save the email in the drafts folder, and to reload 'messaging' and trying again.
When i went back to the today, screen, the fonts had turned white, and everytime i tried to load ANY app, it came up with popups, telling me that the program was unsigned :/ Also, it was acting as if the shift button was pressed, because if i tried to select ONE email/txt, to open it, it just selected a whole bunch instead, and refused to open them!
After a soft reset, i could use the device as normal, but ANNOYINGLY, the saved e-mail in the drafs folder, had magically disappeared.... REALLY, REALLY ANNOYING!
The same thing happened, when i was composing a TXT message as well... refuses to send, then goes weird.. reboot........ all gone!
I don't have any non-standard software installed, and i remember encountering this problem on my previous MDA Pro.......
I'd be VERY grateful if someone could post any theorys as to what the hell is doing this.... i thought it might be a low-memory issue, but i've checked, and it all seems fine.
Thanks in advance (sorry for the length of this post!)
My specs:
(Latest T-Mobile ROM)
ROM: 1.20.32 WWE
Eadio: 1.06.00
extROM: 1.20.120 WWE
*bump*
Anyone else had a similar problem?
Im noticing that when the backlight goes to full brightness, thats the first sign of impending doom!
Really annoying me now!
Never had that. Try hardreset, not install anything, test it a lot and if it still happens, return your unit.
I am thinking of binning my omnia and moving back to htc with the hd2. The big problem i have is the issue with sms not working correctly. I use sms alot, and would not be willing to live with a phone that sms doesnt work properly.
Please could you fill in the survey and also give me an idea of which rom you are using and if this changed the sms problem for you?
Thanks
Non-existent, if you have the 1.6.1 ROM
No problems at all even on 1.43 ROM
Never had any problem with sms.
After flashing 1.61 no more SMS issue (as well as no other bugs so far, still testing...)
t-mobile
ROM 1.43.110.2 (70315) WWE - Set up the phone, sent text with RSVP and got one back seconds later.
Same with email.

There are currently two separate sms bugs:
1. Messages get stuck in the outbox and never get sent
2. Horrible lag when loading an sms thread with lots of messages.
The first has supposedly been fixed in the 1.61 rom(never had this issue myself), but the latter hasn't. The music player suffers from the same lag.
So if you send a lot of messages I'd still recommend switching to the default WM application.
never had a problem with SMS. ROM 1.48
Where can you find the 1.61 ROM?
I cannot locate this anywhere on HTC's website. Can anyone please point me to where they downloaded the 1.61 ROM from?

It's a leaked rom so you might want to check out the leo rom sub forum.
I am not having any issues with SMS getting stuck in the out box.
I am however getting the slow down when loading SMS threads. With about 30 messages its getting slow. Not terrible but compared to instant when i started it seems horrible.
Never had any problems with SMS, with 1.43 or 1.48.
I have no idea, what is sms problem this phone work awsome out of the box.
You wanna see fu*ked up phone try lg viewty or other lg crap...
I'm using the O2 HD2 with 1.43 ROM
Today is the first time my GF didn't receive my sms and she called me as worried something happened to me. After we hung up, I was gutted that my HD2 actually had the sms problem like what people have said. However when I tried to send her another sms later on, I realised I didn't actually press send before pressing the home button. I'm guessing the O2 HD2 doesn't have sms problem?

In regards to sms bug 1: I'm running 1.61 rom and the messages I sent today I've still not received any delivery reports for.
no1 had this problem??
receive are all 2-3 minutes too early (time is not match with own mobile time clock) as it basic on sender time and so put the text conversation out of sync.

It most certainly does. I'm with O2 and have this problem, also the occasional text going to a different (and non-requested) recipient!
HTC have provided a hotfix today for SMS issues. I havent experienced the problem myself so am interested to see if the problem is resolved.
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=812&news_id=407
Nope that hotfix didnt fix anything. I still have messages sitting in outbox for hours now..
humbug
(ps, using the ROM 1.48)
i still had time stamp error
Hi all, well last night i decided to update to 1.66. (previously on 1.48 wwe)
So firstly created a backup via spb backup and then installed the update (via goldcard method)
I then restored my settings via spb backup. All seems to be fine apart from my htc messaging. The front screen is fine but when i select "all messages" (bottom left of screen) the next screen has absolute massive font and is overlapping and basically unreadable. Its also the same when i enter a message in conversation mode.
I have checked my standard text size in settings but its set to small and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to resolve this problem.
All other menus etc are fine. Its just the htc messaging. I dont know if the problem has arised from my spb backup or the actual rom update.
Hi, I got the same problem tonight when I installed 1.66, I can´t figure out how to make it right again. Have you had any luck?
/Hans
I have the same problem on 1.43 WWE it just happened, hadnt changed any s/w, anyone got an idea how to fix it
i had the same problem the solution i used is only to backup e-mail and contacts and not the sms messages. it simply ****s up everything
same problem here.
after going from dutty v1.5 to 1.8 and restoring from spb backup, the size and font are totally different than before and there is no way to make it smaller.
Threaded Messaging not in order
Hey guys, i just purchased my HD2, and i also have problems with the threaded messaging, it is on 1.66 by stock and in the threaded messaging displayed in sense, all the messages sent by 'me' is displayed at the top regardless whether the message is a reply or sent before. And all the messages of the receipient's is listed below, this is really irritating, have you ever encountered this? Any ways to go about solving it? 1st day of purchase and i get it, not to mention the shaky screen when i hold on to select text or crop images. Pissed!
Would appreciate your help guys, thanks!
i have the same problem too. is there any way to fix the front size being so big??
Hi there,
Does anyone know for sure if the 1.66 ROM upgrade fixes the SMS issue with them getting stuck in the outbox? I'm downloading it as we speak but I don't want to have to completely reset my device without needing to.
I have all the previous hotfixes released in EU/UK installed.
not sure... supposedly it does... im running it and havent had the problem.
i delete alot of my texts all the time though so im not sure if i just havent noticed it yet.
it should and it is (for me) fix both the stuck in the outbox & lag problem on the sms app.
Sounds like good feedback! Making an app and tweak list so I can get up and running again quickly now... I remember the fun I had doing this on my Diamond...surely this SMS issue could have been done as a hotfix
There is new SMS hotfix from January 24th, which says is for ROMs older then 1.66, so it is supposed to be the same version of SMS software as is on 1.66 ROM.
i had an issue with 1.66.. UK unbranded device - After using PIM and then MyPhone to restore messages and such, any SMS i tried to send went as an MMS?
I couldn't find anything else like this for anyone else, so I went back to 1.48 and I've got no problems with my SMS'... one of the contacts said 550 after the name on 1.66 so I'm guessing this was a count of how many messages were in that thread.
Haven't experienced any stuck sms on the latest 1.66 ROM, but I noticed that the ringing volume is much lower than it used to be. Not sure maybe because I had like 40% battery left?
1.66 ROM solves the SMS issue for me.
Also fixed for me as well as other things such as windows live messenger connection problems, receiving emails problem, weather not updating etc. Best rom to date
I had the stuck sms syndrome on 1.43 and 1.48............no such problem on 1.66
stable...
Id say its running stable for now. Only thing i noticed is the "limited to 10 recipients" on th recipient input field for SMS. SMS thread loads faster and there is no lag on replying to SMS thru sense ui. Like i am experimenting with a long thread of 119 SMS on one conversation.
Once clicked on the SMS, it it loads the SMS conversation, and i can start to write on the input box immediately. Loading all the older msgs takes a few second which is OK with me as i dont go on scrolling to see the older msgs just as i open them.
anyone else got the imitd to 10 recipients coming on ur recipient input fields???
My wife and I have both having this problem with our HD2. I searched both the US and EU forums for a solution, maybe I searched the wrong terms. I posted in the Energy thread as well as I am running an Energy ROM. No solution yet. Posting here for better visibility.
With my phone only certain contacts take days to get messages. Some contacts get them right away as they should. My wife's phone takes days for any and all SMS to reach any and all contacts. Needless to say I need to fix this ASAP.
I am running the 9/4 Energy GTX and my wife is one the 8/28 Energy GTX, both 23xxx. I have the NRGZ28 HTC messaging cab installed via XDA_UC on both phones.
UPDATE:
So I was trying a few things I had found with my phone to get things working again. My wife finally brings me her phone and I send my phone a test message from her phone. I get it immediately then immediately get messages on her phone from several people saying that they just received all the messages she had tried to send them for the last couple days. One person said they just received over 15 messages at one time. Her phone seems to be working fine now as far as we can tell. She is still not getting my text messages. I also noticed that If I select a contact and try to view the conversation in that manner there are no messages.
Go to the messages tab, then click on all messages, then click touch menu then settings then options, then scroll down till you see delivery change that to immediate. That should fix your problem

I will try that on my wife's phone when I get home. I do think I am just going to re-flash her phone just in case. I am somewhat confident that it was an issue with installing HTC messaging onto the Energy ROM. Uninstalling it via application management (I did this on my phone) completely hoses messaging in general.
I have flashed my phone to Energy's September 8th GTX ROM (no HTC messaging?) and did not install the HTC messaging cab. All seems well now. The thing I did not like about the messaging client that Energy uses (Standared WM? messaging) is the stupid comic bubble display for messages. I found where to turn that off though so I don't feel the need to have HTC messaging installed/enabled.
