Hi All,
i text quite frequently and have noticed a silly problem. When i try to reply to a message (the screen where it says 'tap to compose text') ive got to press the screen a few times before i can enter some text. why is that?
Its annoying, any tweak for this?
regards
It's not that you have to press a few times, it's just a bit slow. HTC have yet to address it and it's a well documented problem. I reckon though that if you switched to traditional view in the options, rather than the conversation view, it might be quicker as it won't be loading message histories.

So my phone is on the desk, it beeps to tell me that I received a text message. I'm busy so I come back to it 5 minutes later.
I hit my power button, then slide to unlock (S2U2).
On my TF3D scroll bar, theres a little green "1" on top of the messages icon to tell me I have 1 new message.
I press the messages button but ......The new text is not displayed. I have to scroll through the texts to get to it.
WTF??????????
Surely there is a fix for this absolutely stupid design flaw. Please can anyone help me. Starting to get annoyed with this thing.
Ive just been testing this again be sending myself texts from the web and it seems to be working fine now. I did a complete re-install of my phone last night so maybe that explains it. Be interested to hear from anyone who had similar problems all the same.
Hello All,
I have a Rogers HTC Touch running WM6.0 (the default software). Text messaging typically works but on occasion when i receive a text message my phone screen will light up, but no sound and no vibration will be produced. And the icon on my Home screen that indicates text messages will still say "0". But when i press the icon and the messaging tab loads up i see that i have a text message.
This is really annoying since I constantly miss text msgs. When the phone is in my pocket I have no way of knowing i have been texted. To make matters worse when i pull the phone out of my pocket the icon on the home screen telling me how many text messages i have will still display "0" until i press on it.
Again this only happens sometimes.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Just an update?
Any thoughts? It's a really weird bug. This is my second Touch from Rogers and it suffers from the same issue as before.
Anything in the registry than can be changed?
Thanks.
I had the same problem.... i hard reset, it was the only way.
Rogers as well...
Check this Thread.
Check your sms reminder settings.....this could be of help to you.
Are you using Opera? Their older builds seem to cause this issue.
Regadrs,

Ok, in addition to the major SMS Outbox problem (which incidently hasn't happened for several days now), I've noticed two other minor issues related to the messaging:
A few times I've received a message, and then gone to read the message. I tend to use the Phone Keypad for writing messages.
Anyway occasionally (probably one in thirty texts), when I try to write a reply to the message, when typing on the keypad, it writes the numbers instead of the letters. Changing to another keypad and back doesn't resolve it, only when I exit messaging.
Second issue is sometimes I go to rely to a message, and I try to select where is says tap to compose a message, and it takes a good 3-4 seconds before it response to a tap so that I can actually start to write the message.
Anyone else have any similar problems?
I've also had the numbers problem, I thought it was related the SPB or Resco keyboards I'd installed, but after a hard reset and not installing these apps, it's still there...although only very rarely now
does this happen to anyone else?
whenever i reply to a text message, about halfway through my response the previous message becomes highlighted and i have to stop typing, click on the text field where i was originally typing, then finish typing my response. i havent seen any other posts on this and i assure you im not doing something silly like tapping or selecting the previous message while typing my response. im relatively new to the winmo world and i cant imagine what's causing this but its really aggravating.
No, it's pretty popular bug here, there are post/threads on it.
Just disable the Sense's SMS Tab and put an icon on your today screen to the HTC Messaging App... It only happens when you use the SMS Tab to access SMS...
I recently bought a HTC HD2 and like the phone a lot. I have a problem with SMS and whenever I search for the problems with SMS they are all old and about lag which obviously was a big problem. Mine isn't as big of problem but is extremely annoying.
When I get a new message, whether on the lockscreen or not. If I use the navigation tabs to view the SMS (which you have to do from the lockscreen), I am 90% of the time directed to an older message in the conversation and not the NEW message. So then I have to scroll up to view the new message.
This is extremely annoying and I know I cant be the only one to have this problem, but it is definitely hard to search for this because it is hard to describe. Please someone help.
Also, would there be a way to go from the new SMS slider on the lockscreen directly to "All Messages" so you can bypass seeing the sms on the white sheet of paper and then having to click that to answer. Its a lot of steps for nothing.
same problem here, on Miri's ROM. it is annoying (as is the fact that when i start writing a text, after a couple of seconds the focus moves out of the text entry field, and hence i can't type any more without clicking in the field again.
not found a solution to either of these.
I've seen a thread about this yesterday I think
Anyway, just disable the SMS tab... If you do that, tapping the notification will open the Messaging application.
i suspect going to an old message from lockscreen is caused by the same thing that makes appointments stay on the lockscreen for a while after they have ended. basically the lockscreen controls poll the registry for the info that is displayed, but it doesn't update itcontinually.just now and then
I disabled the sms navigation tab and that seems to work better. The SMS app is still not as smooth as i would like it to be but what can you do...
Dear, This thread already posted. search for smstimestampfixer 1.3.cab. gud luck
