hey all i have jsut encountered a weird text message problem. when i was texting this morning, i noticed that all the messages i sent was not showing in the thread. also, when i recieved a message, it doesnt show up either. however, when i get the notification, i can see the text that was sent to me, but not in the thread. can anyone help me with this? thanks all.
i seem to have the opposite problem...sometimes i dont get a message notification...e.g. the message tone doesn't sound and the new message isn't highlighted on the home screen.
I only know i have a message if i happen to see the screen wake-up or manually go to my inbox where then the tone will sound and the new message will be displayed. However this doesnt always happen but id say 25% of the time if not a bit more. Very annoying and inconvinient
Me too have the same problem with bknewtype.
This is annoying because if i dont wake up the phone, i wont know that a message have arrived.
It makes me miss an important appointment 1 time.
Can anyone tell me anything about this problem?
I am having the same problem as you all cos I will not know that I have received a SMS only when I go into the Inbox then incoming SMS start coming in.
Anyone know what is the problem and any solution?
I HAVE same issue do u all have slide to unlock? i do.
what abt a diff on screen keyboard? there has to be a common issue we all have .. what about firmware??
I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this, but I hope it is not a single problem. The issue is that sometimes when i receive a SMS, the notification shows up on the top bar. I pull that menu down, and sure enough there is a preview for the message, but sometimes if I click on the message, or go into the messaging app, that message doesnt show up in the conversation. This gets very frustrating b/c if I go back to the notifications menu up top, the new message is removed and the SMS seems to be lost forever.
I've had this issue with Handcent, ChompSMS, and also the native "Messaging" app too. Anyone else encounter this? If so, were you able to fix?
I have the HTC Dream from Rogers, rooted.

There was a issue awhile back with early hero builds dropping sms all together but I know yours is a different issue. But I have a similar problem with gtalk sometimes. Whenever someone would log off and log back on and send me a message I will see it in notification bar but not in gtalk. Thought I would throw my 2 cents in.
I wasn't even able to get SMS for some reason, I had an unlocked G1 using AT&T and SMS just didn't seem to work. I didn't know the G1 supported SMS. I'm upset now.
Best of luck for you getting your problem resolved. I would recommend upgrading but if your in the newest update release, I don't know much to say.
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

Hey Guys when I first got my DHD I used Zedge to get a custom SMS tone and it worked for a while. But it no longer works my phone is rooted using visionary.
So the other day I used a app called funny sms tones and got a new tone and when I go to select sound it says I have the funnysms one selected but when I get a message or email it doesnt use that sound.
Anyone else have this problem or able to help me.
I'm currently having some issues with vibrating alerts for when i receive a new text message. I've googled it and found a suggestion somewhere that downloading Sound Manager from the marketplace would fix it, but it doesn't seem to have made a difference. Is this an issue with the ROM i'm using or is this a known issue with android that hasn't been fixed, i'm certain it isn't a hardware issue because if i hold the volume down to go into silent it vibrates.
Cheers
have you try messaging and then settings and then notification setting in there you
are going to find vibrate settings
