Guys, need to ask if anyone has experienced this in the latest WM 6.5 roms, whenever you receive messages and your using titanium, the sms is partly displayed with a "- GSM" at the end part. Is there any way (register tweak) to remove this? Kinda ugly and annoying. Thanks in advance.
Am i experiencing this?
i have found that om messages i have restored with PIMBackup, but not on new messages i have sent.
is it the same for you?

Hi,
I recently did a hard reset and I wanted to save my SMS messages so I backupped them with PIMbackup. I succesfully recovered the messages, but the sorting is al wrong in threaded mode! I read somewhere that going to normal and then back to threaded would solve the problem, but it didn't
For example:
Other person:
Yeah, i'll be there at 17.00
Other person:
Sure
Me:
will you go to [somewhere] and if yes, when will you be there?
Me:
can i ride along?
that is .. wel.. ridicoulous, can i solve it in some way?
thanks,
Hitisj
Well. PIMBackup was created before Threaded SMS came to WinMo. It restores Received text messages first, then the sent ones so yours come last. I was trying to find a way to restore in chronological order too :|

Thanks for your reply. I think this is strange behaviour: Outlook on Vista sorts incoming messages by date too, not by the sequence they come in Oh well, MS...
It's the right way to restore SMS messages while in normal mode, and then turn to threaded mode to complete rebuild the all conversation threads. The messages would keep in order as they stay in the backup, resorting seen to be none sense.
In my HTC threaded messaging, the display is not in order such that all SMS sent by me is displayed at the top while messages of my recipient's are displayed below, regardless of the order they are sent, that isn't threaded messaging isn't it. Have any of you faced this problem? And how can i go about solving it? I just purchased my LEO today and it's running on 1.66 by default.
Another problem which have already been mentioned by other threads i faced is the shaking screen problem when trying to select text in htc messages or cropping of images, this is especially annoying as it prevents me from copying and selecting text accurately.
I'd appreciate all the help i can get since i am relatively new to the community. Thanks guys!
Search timestamp fix...has worked for me so far.

Hey! Thanks so much for you response. Will install the cab and see how it goes!
Thanks thanks!!
Failing that, assuming all your messages are from a backed up PIM?
1)Backup messages.
2)Disable threaded SMS
3)Delete all messages
4)Close / kill the messaging app
5)Restore messages
6)Enable threaded SMS and wait (maybe a long time depending on how many messages) while it re-threads them for you.
nope, my messages were all 'new' messages meaning they were sent and received on while using the phone after unboxing. i didn't store any backup messages on it. But it's working alright so far, but the screen is pretty annoying as i'm making plenty of typo errors, either i type "too fast" (which is slow in my opinion) and then it somehow register other key presses or not even registering any. I've already installed the cab V3.3 for reduced sensitivity and it doesn't seem to be working?
messaging problem still need help
hey guys, the whole display and layout of my threaded messaging is still screwed. it makes things really inconvenient and i have to do alot of scrolling when i have a considerably large amount of history of texts. i need help and the timestamp cab didn't work. is there a registry fix for this? the reason why my messages are sometimes positioned below my recipient i suspect is the difference in time. i believe it is due to either mine is faster or slower and that determines the position of the messages. isn't it supposed to be all according to my phone's time? i am puzzled and dismayed that a core function of the phone is screwed up.
pls help me with this guys. thanks so much.
Hi there.
I've had problems with my HD2 since I got it shortly after release last year. I've upgraded it to the latest ROM 1.66 and I still *had* problems with extreme sluggishness and freezing. "Services.exe" was a program that often got problems. I also had the "sleep of death" syndrome.
After I updated it and did a hard-reset I used PIMbackup to backup my contacts, SMS messages, appointments and such. No programs were restored. It still had the same problems. So I tried different things, but with no luck, until I did a hard-reset and restored everything except for my SMS messages. There were about 1600 of them, which I personally think is not that many. Now it runs fine, no freezing nor sluggishness.
So my question is, is it normal for an expensive smart phone like this to get that slow and unstable just by having a little too many SMS messages?
Thanks in advance.

i've just gone an deleted 5000 SMS's and i was not having any problems with slowness.
I just deleted them for a bit of house keeping, thats all.
i weekly take backup of sms's using pimbackup. if i dont clear the sms then it will b very difficult to text and open the application. it takes around 10-15 seconds to open a conversation thread with mor than 2000 sms's and around 8-10 seconds for 200-700 sms.
I weekly send around 4-5000 sms's and this fone have only one BAD point.. that is Messaging client.

So if you can have triple the amount of text messages than me, that must mean that there is something wrong with my phone, right?
If I send it to repair, they'll probably just hard-reset it, take a quick test on it, and sent it back saying they didn't find any problems on it. Isn't that right?

What messaging client are you using? HTC or WM?
I use the HTC messaging client.

thats may be why, i dont, i found with HTC messaging client that with as little as 100 sms in my inbox the client would lag, so i reverted to WM messaging client and runs like a dream, on its not the best looking client but still, does the job as they say.
Ah, ok. Where can I find the WM client?
Thanks for your help!
im not 100% sure but i think there shuold be a way of dissabling HTC client and it will default to WM SMS, maybe someone else could shed some light on this
Nevermind, found it =)
A million thanks for your help djchubbs! =D

no problem, like i said, its doesnt look great but performance wise you should notice the difference.
I am not sure if it is just me or everyone else is also having this problem also:
The Message app interface is really slow. It takes a long time to load or send messages. There is atleast a 5+ second delay when interfacing with different threads. For example: When I am reading my txt messages from person A, and then I press the back button to view all my messages, it takes atleast 5+ secs to go back to the view with all messages.
To troubleshoot this issue, I backed up my mmssms.db file and deleted it from the phone. This way I start fresh with no saved message. All of a sudden this issue was solved. The interface was fast again with no lag at all. But when I restored my original mmssms.db again, the interface becomes slow again.
Any way resolve this issue?
Edit: I am using the MDJ FroYo Revolution v2.3 NAND build.
Is this problem occurring in the Android ROM you have in your signature, or in WM?
If it's WM then you need to update your ROM as there were SMS lag issues in early WM ROMs.

Well I don't want to delete all my text. I like having all the conversations saved. Is there any fix for this issue?
I can't suggest a solution that would make the messaging app quicker with that many texts, but I use an app called SMS Backup+ (available free on the Market) and it automatically backs up all messages (and new messages) to your Gmail account, in a new folder called SMS. That way, you could delete them from your phone and still have access to them.
Alternatively, try an another SMS app, like GO SMS (again, free on the Market, as are many others). It may be better for you.

I installed GO SMS. Really like the app, thanks for the tip, although the interface is still slow.
Also, I have been noticing my text messages keep randomly being deleted. Luckily I have them backed up and have to restore it. I have noticed this problem atleast 4 times during the last 4 days. Why is this happening? I made sure to go to Settings and uncheck limited messages.
Hi there,
i wanted to take the SMS from my old G1 to my arc.
some 334 messages.
i used the backup i had from "SMS Backup & Restore"
it said it restored them all.
i made a new backup and it said it backed up 334.
so i guess they must be in the DB.
however if i startup "Messaging"
- i get a unusable sort order (actually i can't recon what it is sorting. certainly not conversation with the newest update is top-most, what i would expect)
now i wonder:
- is this a bug of "Messaging" App
- how can i get the vanilla stock "Messaging" App
- is it a Problem with "SMS Backup & Restore" and how can i solve that
any help deeply appreciated!

It's not a bug. SMS Backup backs up messages based on date but the restore doesn't always sort it chronologically. The only way to have it updated is to send or receive a message from the same threaded conversation.
Why do you want stock? There are lots of better SMS applications.
e.g. Handcent: http://www.bestandroidappsreview.com/2010/04/top-android-app-handcent-sms.html
I've used SMS Backup & Restore a few times and never had issues until trying to move messages from one handset to another.
As BluechipJ says, the messages are all still there, it's just the order is messed up a bit.
But, over time, it'll sort itself out.
Thanks for your answers!
Now that i got messages from the most important contacts it's already getting better.
I'll have a look at handcent. Not so sure tough if I realy trust anybody when it comes to reading my SMS ;-)
Hello guys..
actually am facing this problem right now on my C6602 Xperia z..
Can anyone of you help? How to sort my SMSs by date chronologically??
Thanks...
