im afraid to ask any iphone friends if they have the same problem(s) as i do its hard enough to convince them the nexus isnt an iphone "wannabe". So I dont know if this is sort of a common issue regardless of OS, although i dont think this happened on my g1 or mytouch.
I receive a text message from "Bob", I open it and the thread has "Jenny" as the name in the actual conversation. In other words, one contact's name is at the top, and is the contact in the screen with all of the threads, but when i select it the text is actually from a different contact, and that name is the one that is followed by a colon and then the actual message. I dont recall this on my g1 or mytouch but its super annoying.
Also, i believe it only has happened (about 6 times total starting about a week ago) when im in the middle of a conversation with, say, person "A", and at some point they send a reply and its received as a new thread from person "B", but person A is still the name in the actual conversation. Theres a ton of bugs in 2.1, but i love the phone and Android and only wish for it to improve, which i understand takes time. This is just particularly frustrating because it started only recently. And yes i clear out the threads regularly but other than restarting the phone thats all ive tried. I dont doubt there may be an easy solution but i cant finger it out. Anybody? thanks
I saw this last night for the first time in the two weeks I have had the phone. I just hit the back button and then returned to the conversation and it was fixed, but I was confused. haha.
Speaking of weird glitches, I once got 5 aces in windows XP solitaire.... I have a screenshot somewhere....
good lord. i just got a text from one of my buddies that said "goodnight sweetheart want to tuck me in?"
then i looked above that one message and the rest of the messages in the conversation had come from my wife who's out of town, and it was in her thread. The phone just decided to make one of the messages from one of my guy friends.
I pressed back like you said and it was fixed but this is NOT cool...

Not sure about sms popup being installed (if it's from the market, then no I do not have it), but I have delivery notifications turned on and I am using the stock messaging application.
I can confirm this happening to me as well and on multiple occasions. From what I can tell I would be texting with "Mike" and I would back out to do something else. Then I would recieve a text from "John" and it would show up with his text but with Mike's picture and name as well as name in the thread. It was very confusing before I had realized what really happened.
Ive has this a couple of times, the message does get sent to the right recipient though i can confirm.
Just hit back, open the thread again and itll be fine. Sometimes happens when you get a message from someone when your composing a message.

I experienced this problem today on my n1... and I experienced it before on my HTC Magic running official sense UI... I reported the problem to HTC at the time and they couldn't replicate the bug in their labs..
same issue here as well
I'll pile on and confirm this bug, but it seems to be limited to the stock messaging app. I haven't seen the problem replicated since I switched to Handcent last week.
I think it was actually just a little different for me though. Mine bugged out when I would go to the "quick messaging" option in the contact list (the thing where you tap on the contact's icon and the little list of ways to get in touch with them pops up) and hit the text icon. Once I hit that icon the text app opens with the contact I intend to text at the top, but the thread contents are that of a different person's thread - usually the last person I was texting.
Weird, but I guess a non issue since I like Handcent a lot better anyway.

I've had two episodes where I sent a SMS to my dad, and the SMS shows up in the list of messages sendt to my sister -> My sister got the SMS.
Another example: I sent a SMS to my friend, and it shows up in the list of messages to my uncle. My friend answered the message.
Anyone else experienced something similar?
Is there a fix?
Can't say that I've ever had that happened unless I mistakeningly sent it to the wrong person. Human error rather than device error.
I'm sure you uncle must have enjoyed the message.
Have you thought that maybe your numbers are messed up?? Or maybe all your contacts are switching with each other to mess you up.
Yep, chedked the numbers. This is definately a device error.
I had this self same problem yesterday! I thought it was me.
I sent an SMS to a friend called 'Ross', it showed up as Ross in the 'To' field but when I went into my sent messages it had gone to a friend called Robert. This occurred twice - but hasn't with subsequent messages.
Weirdest thing isn't it?
Now, how do we go about fixing this?

You need to email HTC support like with any issues / bugs you find or they will never know about them. Then hope they bring out a software fix. If we don't tell them, they will think its only a handful of people and not bother to do anything.
Also make sure your contacts' numbers are correct.
I have had the same problem, but the message hasn't actually been sent to the wrong person. It seems that it gets confused about who the person is. In my example the person I texted began with Dan and the second Theresa, so not next to each other in contacts. Theresa didn't say she had received something from me.
Same problem here
I did report this to HTC along with not getting sms and getting multiple of the same sms. All they suggested I do is a hard reset (already done) which did not change anything. Not very happy with them they didn't day it was a software fault or a fix was coming
They gave me the same response (although I only reported not getting all messages). If the hard reset didn't work they said to get the phone replaced. Its definitely a software fault so I am not replacing it, seeing as others have had issues with dead pixels etc...
It's only a display problem, you just close messages then reopen it, or go to the messages tab of the contact you sent the text to then click on the message and it'll correct the names.
I've had a similar issue once! Strange experience: I actually thought I had sent all kinds of SMS-es to the wrong person ;-)
In my case the names changed back automatically after about 30 bewildering seconds. Never had an issue since.
I have uninstalled Handcent SMS that caused several conflicts on my Hero, inclusing SMS-es not arriving at all. I might have had the 'wrong name' issue when I had Hancent installed. Don't really remember.
Installed the SMS hotfix earlier, and now I know at least one SMS has gone to the wrong contact.
Very embarrassing to say the least.
They still show in every menu on the phone as having gone to the correct contact, but I know they haven't.
Can I remove the hotfix?
I had this problem before installing the hotfix so I would not be so sure that this is indeed the cause of your problem! I'm sorry to hear you report that the problem still exists, I was hoping the 'fix' would have sorted this. As you say, it's very embarrassing and gives one no confidence in sending SMS!
To uninstall the hotfix, go to start/settings/application/remove programs and you will see the hotfix there.
Now that's the funniest thing Ive ever read !
Haha...... wow!
That's a truly scary bug - imagine those "private" texts ending up in your parent's inbox! ARGHHHHHH! lol
Yeah... like that's the funniest thing ever... HTC's flagship phone that can't send a text message correctly. This is a phone right? Can you ring people in your contacts list, or does it dial some random number too?

I hope this gets fixed soon!
Guys
Hoping someone can help me out. Since I got my HD2 a few days ago, everything works fine, especially after installing lots of cabs from XDA, but since the thing has been switched on I've been getting weird text messages at random times. They'll have no content other than the "from" field will contain a small triangle and an @ sign, or sometimes it'll be an underscore like so: "[email protected]". In addition, on the RHS side in the conversation mode view for SMS, these messages will have a little picture of a SIM card above the time received. Anyone any ideas?
Thanks in advance ...

looks like someone is trying to reach you from another dimension.
By your description, it looks like someone is winking or looking at you. I wouldn't be shocked if the next text you'll get is something like this
[email protected] or
@[email protected] or

Don't be scared.

This is a voicemail message notification. You'll get another one when you clear VMs - it has a triangle I think.

Another one of many bugs mate, you dont get an icon on the task bar just that gobbledygook SMS
haha...thats scary.
it might be messages stored in sim card???...
Well, it depends on your operator. On mine it works fine and I get the little cassette tape icon for a voice mail, but my Tilt used to give me the text messages. Funnily enough, reading some of the taskbar threads some people were getting the right icon but had never seen it before!

LOL same problem here. Texts with just "∆@" and "[email protected]" as the title with no body are received instead of a proper missed call notification from Orange.
Any fix available to stop this occuring? Is this anything to do with the first SMS hotfix?

You can change your voicemail notification by calling your voicemail and going through the options on there. Most providers allow you to change it, but one or two only allow notification or no notification. I didn't believe this at first, but I set mine to just show a notification icon and it worked.
When you have a text log with the original person? I have noticed it shows up in the notification tray under 1 name and then under the actual msg app its to the right person but it makes me scared at times who the last txt REALLY went too..
In the stock messaging app (all I use) Ill start a txt conversation with person x then down the line it'll send the next to person y... idk if it was a confusion between the linked fbook accounts but it almost got me in trouble so now for safety sake I dont have fbook linked to contacts...
Anyone notice this or is it just me?
Sorry to hear this. If its the same two contacts each time, I'd suspect your two contacts may have automatically linked or merged phone numbers. Inspect each one's details for the other's phone number. For example, I found that two contacts who shared the same email were merged, completely deleting one's name entirely.
I'm using Handcent myself so not sure if this would be related, but I've found that text messages received from one particular number (my bank's alerts) always appear as another contact (a friend) in the initial pop-up alert but then appear correctly in Handcent's actual message threads. I've since swapped and rebuilt the handset to no avail. This issue remains a mystery.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
not the same contact. Thats what I originally thought it was something merged weird but its random. so I am not too sure but it makes me whery what I send to certain ppl. For some reason im friends with enemies of the other friend so saying 1 thing starts a fight btwn the 2.. lol I cant win.
same problem, HTC EVO, seems like it goes to a random person, facebook contact or not.
This is a huge problem and is related to the Android platform, not just the Vibrant. You can find more information in the following two links:
1. www.google.com.vn/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=345259e6d424bad3&hl=en
2. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9392
The best thinking that we have on the problem so far is that it is in the ComposeMessageActivity.java file. But it would be great to get more eyes looking over the code to try to get this one licked.
Note: A 3rd party app may make the situation better, but will not resolve it. Best solution is that if you receive a text or e-mail message (or anything that plays with the notification bar or takes focus from what you're typing), quit your message and start over.
This scares the hell out of me. Is there any specific instance when this always happens?
Strange, never had this problem and I've been using Android since the G1. There must be something you are doing or a setting you have that specifically triggers it.
There's nothing related to Facebook - I don't have anything linked on my phone. And I never had this issue on my G1, but I also didn't start screwing with the Vibrant until recently, so it's not something I'm "doing" - it's happened within weeks of getting the Vibrant on launch day.
It can be quite scary. Luckily my friends getting msgs meant for my wife hasn't bit me in the ass yet. But if it ever gets mixed up going to a female friend, I could see this not working out in my best interests, ya know?
-bZj
I've had the same problem on my vibrant and my g1. What I've noticed is that if I send a nescafe to person A then receive a message from person B and access that message by using the notification bar and answer person B, the message can go to person A (the last person I sent to.) I've found that if I remember to not use the notification bar and only access messaging by using the icon, I haven't had the problem. Not the best solution but at least it seems to work.
This could be bad
This could be bad especially if you have more than one girlfriend
Omg glad im not the only one. Had to couch it one night cuz of this issue. Now i only text my girl from my phone. Everyone else i text through gv lol.
I use the notification bar all the time and occasionally reply to the weekend person but that's just because I didn't press on the right notification...
yea i had this happen to me as well. luckily or unluckily a txt i was sending to a girl whom i was fooling around with got sent to a girl i had just met 3 days prior. after that needless to say she wouldnt talk to me waa waaa. it was prob a random bug introduced in earlier builds.. say around a month and a half ago. oh yea i had about 12 threads running around 50 a piece.. maybe that had something to do with that and maybe the random stuttering of the vibrant when too many programs are running. Havent had that happen again thankfully but one would have to say.. slow down on the texting sometimes lol

The evidence seems to suggest that the problem is in the ComposeMessageActivity.java file, which means it is not SMS Client related. Said differently, using a 3rd party SMS client might reduce the likelihood of the problem but does not eliminate it.
Now, to answer your question. It seems like the problem happens when multiple threads or events happen when using SMS. For example, it might happen when you are editing a message and when you receive a SMS text message. (It is more likely if you use the notification bar to pull down the message rather than navigating to it in the SMS client.) The good news is that people are trying to reliably reproduce the problem so that we can troubleshoot and fix the problem. (See my earlier post in this thread for a link of those discussions).

Based on the review of the code, one fix seems to have been made to the 2.2 code branch. However, people using 2.2 have indicated that they are still experiencing the problem. The problem is in the library. However, there is a very unique set of circumstances that have to occur before you see the problem. It's quite possible that people who haven't seen this problem yet just use the UI in such a way that the problem doesn't show up.

i second that. this glitch can be nasty. hopefully it will be addressed soon. GV for the win.
I have the same issue here. It will show one name but have a conversation for another, or the name and the convo are right, but the picture is wrong.
I think I found a solution to the thing. Been getting it a LOT and pissed me off on more than a single occasion.
So. If you are talking to someone and SUDDENLY receive a text message from that person but when you open it, it changes the name of the contact to someone else or ....I guess everyone who has experienced it KNOWS what it looks like. So when you GET IT, open it, then CLOSE the whole messaging app. Then restart it and it should fix itself and be back to texting the right person. If it doesn't (or if you want to be on the safe side), kill the messaging app with a task killer or task manager and restart it.
This has fixed it recently for me. Had it happen a total of about 15 times, with me finding and using the trick about the latest 5 times and it worked every time.
Note that I AM running Bionix Fusion 1.0 with Voodoo if that makes any bit of a difference.
I have found at least two different threads where some of us are experiencing texts that disappear right in front of us. And even worse....texts that are sent to use but we never get them! I've seen my friend's sms record that shows a text was sent, but I did not get it.
I don't think it is rom related, because I've seen the issue presented in an Evo rom thread and a Xoom thread (user has an Evo).
I have completely wiped my phone - twice- and it still happens. Another user trying to trouble shoot the same problem, wiped and reformatted his sd card. This is happening on stock sms and 3rd party sms apps.
AND.. some of us experiencing this are ALSO missing calls. I have seen friend's call history that shows they have called me and I have NO record of a missed call.
Anyway - if you are experiencing this, or thought you were going crazy, I'm trying to troubleshoot and find out wtf is going on. Any ideas would be appreciated. If you are experiencing this, and can join or comment on this discussion maybe we can figure out what the common denominator is.
Thanks!
What up slug. I also can agree with you to. I have missed texts and calls myself. Everytime I was on CM7 or Decks Aosp roms my phone never missed anything. I did miss alot of calls off of MikG. What I do now is upgrade my PRL and Profile every other day.

Hey there, I know you
So by this are we potentially at least narrowing it down to Sense?
Seems like this adds to not being rom related, but maybe sense or sprint? Have you found that updating prl and profile is helping?
Are you sure it was not randomly ok?
Really, as far as I know, I've not missed any texts or phone calls since I did two full wipes. I DO know I've had texts disappear b/c I saw them disappear.
I have had texts disappear once. But that was on one of the nightlies. I was like WTF!! But havent yet since yesterday.
I just posted this in evokings thread... I've been having same issues...
firegeek said:
So due to frustrations with missing text messages, today I flashed the latest Deck rom. As I also was unable to send pics... I was desperate to find a solution ... well pics send great and I haven't missed any texts.
Well I was going thru some of the advanced settings and found a setting about locking messaging in low memory situations. And it got me thinking, is that the issue here? As I know last nite I was playing plants vs zombies when I missed a number of text messages. Do we not have enough memory? Am I asking too much of my poor broken evo? Or can we have that setting?
Just spit balling ... I'm really missing this ROM. And was I alone in having MMS issues? I noticed some talk about it, and renaming a file... but I couldn't understand completely and must have done something wrong because it didn't fix it.
E.
EDIT... yes I did wipe wipe wipe wipe before flashing.

I know there was a problem with SMS messages appearing in the wrong thread or being sent to the wrong person with Froyo. That was one of the things that was supposed to be fixed in the Gingerbread update.
I think I have always received all of my texts though. Missing calls? That has happened on my Evo and several of my previous phones. Sometimes the phone never rings and then suddenly I have a voicemail from someone. It's something wonky with the Sprint network and has happened to me and other members of my family on various phones. I don't think it's specific to the Evo or any ROM on the Evo.

Yea, that sms going to the wrong person thing is supposed to have been fixed.
But this is different. Way different. And I've only seen the combination of things mentioned by evo or 3d evo owners. Texts that show as being sent by a friend that never show up on your phone, same thing with phone calls, and also watching texts within a sms thread literally disappear.
Texts not arriving is sprints network failing. Same with missed calls not showing up
I receive a notification for having a text via the light blinking but there are no texts! This only happens to me when I play plants vs zombies though. Not sure if its the same issue lol

I have been having this same problem on MIUI and Fresh Rom, before and after flashing radios. I live in Florida, if it could be a region/network thing. My wife's Evo is running an old 2.2 rom and she misses calls all day long, simply gets a GVoice notification.

Ok, this is ridiculous then.
Thank you all soooo much for reporting in.
I like Sprint and love my Evo and have no intention of changing carriers or phones (unless I get the 3d or 4g+).
When our phones quit functioning reliably as a PHONE, that is a big problem.
Hey slug, we spoke about this but I want to chime in. I too get the the light indicator go off and never get any messages, I've also seen messages disappear after a few minutes in the thread. I know I've definitely missed calls and only get voicemail.
I've never had a problem with Sprint or my evo until the new sense which I think is the culprit.
I've done a test on a theory I had. I deleted one of my text threads from a friend, sent him a text and asked him to reply (i was ok the phone with him too). When he replied, I got the indicator flashing but no message. Hung up the phone and still no message. I'm starting to think its new threads started by us that it won't show, but also current threads r being effected because I always get a daily message and today never received it.
I'm going to switch back to warm 2.2 and see if it stops and if I receive all of the missing texts but I highly doubt that.

So update on my text dilemma. I switched back to 2.2 and I get texts but now most of my apps doesn't work. Lol I tell ya I can't win. Gonna switch back to synergy later, too tired this to do it now.

I also miss lot of calles that never Come and most of it is started sense they merged with google voice I think it as something to do with it. Also the time stamp in sms is crazy and it is only on sense sms app i have tried other apps and there all fine.. its hard to keep up with a chat using sense app the text is all over the place.

I use Handcent, not the stock sms, and I still have the problem.
I've been wondering what "touches" all of these aspects - texts, phone calls, etc. And while I've thought of Spring, Sense and roms....I had not thought of Google Voice because I don't use it. But you are right, there has been some sort of integration made with that.

Well the problem that I'm having is due to minfree's I think. I think what happens is that the messaging service gets closed to free up RAM and thus the notification light blinks to wake the service up, but it just never decides to read and write the text. The reason why I think it's a memory issue is because when I play PvZ, that's 80 MB of RAM. On the 2.1/3.0 ROM's, I have about 110 free (on Mik's) and 85 on Synergy or Kingdom. When I play PvZ, in order to get that much RAM, it needs to close things, usually launchers are locked in memory so they don't close. But if I'm playing and someone texts me, WiMax notifier goes off when a text is there, but there are no texts and people get mad cuz I don't reply.
It has however, never stopped a phone call for me. Only texts. The other thing I noticed is that if I'm constantly checking my messaging app i.e. keeping it awake, the problem never occurs. So I believe it might be a memory issue with the newer sense. At least for me lol so unless there is a way to lock the messaging app, I don't think it will be solved for people experiencing the issue I am. And I'm not sure if this could also be the phone culprit for not receiving calls.
Edit: Just edited my minfree's and it happened without pvz hmm I think its a memory issue for me then
