FYI:
HTC have confirmed that there is a bug with WM6.5 that shows that you have an unread message, while you clearly don't.
A fix is being prepared by Microsoft.
Never knew about that...
But knew about alarm ringing alarm and notification sound mixed.... and alarm does not stop... in the morning.
Battery additional info reseted to "0" so no historical info there....
No option to light signal for more that 5 minutes (thank god there is a registry tweak for that).
Well. I'll keep waiting.

I am having exactly the same issue and posted it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=579772
Thanks for the update loadstone007...hope both MS and HTC start rolling out fixes for the various bugs in 6.5!

What about the other bugs? Or am I the only one having them:
-Extra blank line between input-box and suggested words-line. Meaning the suggested words-line cross the "send"-button, and when you're picking a word, you accidently push "send".
-TouchFlo/Sense now only shows 160(?) letters in SMS-dialogue. Almost all my sms, in and out, exceed 160, so to read sms now, I have to use the Windows-dialogue(inbox). This was not a problem on WM6.1
-The input box and keyboard overlay the sms-dialogue, so what you see when you write a new text, is NOT the last you recieved, but 2 or 3 messages back in history. The newest ones are hidden behind keyboard, instead of scrolled up.
The weird thing is that these don't seem like bugs, just.. bad construction.

No I dont have these issues, but then again I dont use HTC Sense. Are these Sense related or Windows 6.5 related?

Totally with ya on this one, toth42. I'm having exactly the same issues and think it's Sense rather than WinMo 6.5 itself...

Yea, I'll say it's sense/manila/tf3d, but all the problems occured after the official 6.5 update.
BTW, the one bug, with last SMS's being hidden by keyboard and textbox, is the same in WinMo(inbox). Just check, go to a conversation in your inbox, and whip up the keyboard. The keyboard and text-box takes most of the screen, and what u see above it, is not the last message of the conversation.
They are not bugs, just bad ideas badly implemented i suppose. Yep, the one with send button is driving me crazy

I seem to recall there was a hotfix for this for 6.1, called something like "hotfix for fixing the problem with the extra white line when writing sms"? And still they don't implement the fix in the next version?
Hey guys i got the issue fixed using a little tool to clear the message count. Check this post, and thanks to onthemail:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1519862&postcount=3
Run the program and do a soft reset - wait a couple of seconds and the annoying green message count will disappear. If not, do it all again (run program and soft reset) and it should def work.
Good luck
Cheers

Although I'm not experiencing the exact same problem the topic starter posted, I'm also having a problem with the HTC SMS. When I go to contacts, choose one of my favorites, go to the sms tab and send an sms from there, sometimes the sms doesn't show up in the thread, it just totally disappears from the device. As far as I know the messages are sent to the person, but it's annoying to me to not be able to read back what I wrote.
Anyone familiar with this problem and has a solution for it?
Thanks in advance!
I get quite a few Joke texts sent, but the long ones allways get cut off near the end. Some of them must be 4 or more texts long. I didnt have this problem until i upgraded to win 6.5. I allways miss the punchline is this a known problem and is there a fix or is there i setting i have missed.

It's a bug in WM6.5 unfortunately. You have to go in to Windows messages to see the entire message (as opposed to HTC's sense UI)..it's annoying and i hope HTC come out with a rom update very soon as this is just one of many many bugs and annoying quirks in 6.5. Argh!
HTC Pure Hotfix

Have you successfully installed these?
I received "Device not compatable" errors on both files.
Prolly because of LEO ported manila.
Oh well, thanks anyways Denco7.
I have the stock AT&T rom on my Pure and both updates worked fine.
I also have this problem, so annoying! Microsoft need to get a fix ASAP!
Despite doing the registry tweak suggested in the FAQ (point 24, I think), and using various cabs suggested here in the forum, my LEDs have yet to work for email or SMS notification. I've been using WinMo phones for a few years, so the failure isn't due to my "noobhood".
I find it astounding these phones were released without this working. Anyone got anymore wisdom concerning how to get these to work?
If you're referring to the green LED blinking when you have an unread SMS message or missed call, mine has been working from day one, without any tweaks.
Mine has worked from day one as well, except for when I receive an email.
i installed the cab, then realised i really didnt need it. uninstalled and it still flashes when i get an sms.
I used BsB Tweaks to enable the options under the windows "Sounds and Notifications" panel (they were unusable, grey) and set the respective entrys to "infinite" (or unlimited, however its called in english). Now they work like a charm and the LED blinks to the end of the day.

Mine has worked from day one.........but only had it one week
It works. Without any tweaks. But the orig. hotfix from HTC is installed...
It works for SMS, missed calles etc. Has anyone got it working yet for new emails received?
Mine works from the beginning too, but I am interested in making notification LED work with Skype. I asked twice already and no response.
I don't use pop email so I don't know about that, but for me it works for calls and sms
Hmmm, mine's never worked, and not even after a hard reset, so it's either hardware or the ROM I'm using (that Turkish 1.61). Time to go ROM hunting, I guess.
From the answers here, it's still not clear whether the LEDs work for email (POP or IMAP) or not.
Thanks all.
Mine works when it want to. Very intermittent.
Sorry to bump this up for my own selfish purposes, but after switching to a different ROM, the email LED still doesn't work (even with the various registry tweaks and cabs).
Just trying to get a definite answer from a broader range of users: does the LED notification work for new emails on anyone's HD2?
Thanks, and sorry for being annoying.
works for sms and missed calls but not for emails. this has been since day 1.
i think until someone creates an app, or htc releases an enhancement you won't be seeing this functionality for email.
I've had an extended email correspondence with an HTC tech today concerning the non-working email LED notification: He swears up and down that *his works perfectly*, so until such time as he (and HTC) gets more complaints, they won't be pursuing it.
Here's the support form: http://www.htc.com/www/CS_Mail.aspx

Really? I wonder what the difference is. I've tried 4 different ROMs, including 1.48 hoping to get this working. After flash, I add *nothing*, hoping to see if an unadulterated machine might work. No dice. Then I add BsB and add the tweaks. Still nothing.
I'm not obsessed: just work in a completely quiet profession where alarms are taboo.
Anybody got wisdom on this?
when its not working you surly messed up your registry.
For not so advanced users and people how are lazy to read a complete post for a tweak (and are installing cabs which might not been written for your Rom or manila version) i recommend to modify the registry only manualy with a registryeditor. So you can control what is changed (and change back if needed).
To activate led notification use the registryhacks which are posted in this forum so many times.
And yes, you can change almost every event notification which is listed in your soundsettings menu (email too)
A old but goody post i found in this forum:
Hi there Genuis'
Unfortunately I have a problem with my HD2, short and sweet any texts over 160 characters long don't send. I've tried both the 1.48 ROM Upgrade, the 1.66 ROM Upgrade and any other updates HTC have released.
I also sent my phone back (though the engineer only noted down one problem, so I included a sheet with the problems in detail), and HTC out right ignored the sheet.
So I'm asking you, is there any way for this to be fixed, or is it my phone (Radio, etc). I've tried the SIM in another phone (when the phone went back), and I was able to send a 1100 character text (yeah, I know, long hehe).
So is this something in the ROM, do I need to MTTY my phone? And if I do need to MTTY my phone, can I remove Hard SPL after? I don't particularly want my phone to have unofficial software on if it goes wrong again, HTC will charge me big monies, and seeing as I'm 14, my mum would go absolutely mad and with good reason.
Many thanks dudes and dudettes/dudesses.
Jake
grab a registry editor, (I'd recommend ceregistryeditor on the pc)
browse to
hkey local machine/software/jataayu/messaging
check the values in the following two keys march what I have.
Max7BitText 300
MaxUnicodeText 402
hope this helps
Nope
Unfortunately my values don't match, but interestingly enough they are higher, for Max7BitText anyway.
MaxUnicodeText : 402
Max7BitText : 918.
Is this because I'm on a different ROM to you?
Forgive me, I'm more of a Windows Tinkerer than a Windows Mobile Tinkerer eheh.
If I can't get it sorted in an hour I'll have to phone up HTC to get it picked up on Thursday or something.
Thanks again,
Jake
Surely calling the person is quicker than sending a 1100 (!!!) character SMS?? lol...
I've not had any issues but my txts are never longer than one message - if they are I email or call instead...
True but you know...
And my girlfriend's dad got the HD2 too, recommendation from me, and when I went over there 2 weeks or so ago he let me use his, and he's had his since ooh January, and it worked fine.
Oh and sorry I did forget to say, my phone will work fine for a week or so after a ROM Upgrade/Hard reset, then screw itself over again.
Real bloody annoying.
Thanks,
Jake

I have the same problem as you do. And I also found those same values in my registry as you did (402, 918).
Happen to be using a Dutch rom? Cause I do. The official latest dutch rom without any other updates (there are none)
how weird. sorry using my hd2. I'm using a HTC stock ROM, 1.66. I might try entering those values and seeing if it makes a difference.
Or maybe we have duff phones, with bad chips? if 500,000 were shipped, just think, not every single one will be perfect.
Who knows hey?
Jake,
i can't send messages with more than 918 characters. thats 6 sms, and i cant send anymore than that at a time.
anyone else got this problem?
That's a registry setting.
Download a registry editor and have a hunt, I have a feeling it is "Max7BitText" setting in HKLM\Software\Jataayu\Messaging.
Change this setting to something higher and you might be able to send more texts.
Could you please tell me if you can send texts over 160 characters?

I did change these values, but they dont seem to have fixed the problem for me.
yes i can send texts with more than 160 characters no problem
I'm a fan of long text messages, so I feel your pain... in fact, my text messages are so long they went back in time and sank the Titanic ; ) I'm on the standard HTC 1.66 WWE ROM, and I don't have the problem. My Max7 and MaxUnicode values are 918 and 402 respectively. Good luck.
what about lagging issues?
hey,
i solved my problem.
really, i rarely send a message with more than 918 characters. 3 or 4 sms at the most.
but i have 2 issues which have, the one above and the lagging.
ive reluctantly installed zenyees disable htc messaging thing. I didnt really want to do this because i really like the interface of the htc sms thing. but enough was enough and ive reverted back to the windows messaging thing. which i was used to from the x1. if you havent used anything other than the htc messaging, then going to windows looks like a step back, its basic. but does the job well. like the saying goes, get the basics right and all else will fall into place.
unfortunately htc havent really got all the basics right here.
Phoned up HTC earlier, spoke to a really nice guy and he's getting my phone in for it's second Repair. Said it could be the antenna or the BIOS, which they will happily check.
Let's hope it goes well this time.
And hmm, I'm a bit reluctant to go back to Windows Mobile Messaging, but I'll try it if this doesn't work.
The guy said that if it doesn't work send it back and they'll push for a replacement phone.
HTC Support = Abso-flipping-lutely great!
HTC sent me an email saying that i cant send sms-es with more than 918 characters and suggested I emailed instead. Which is a valid point but some people dont regularly check their mail so sms is the best option to contact those people....
well another reason not to use the HTC messaging facility.
great when it works, but a carrier pigeon is better when it doesnt.
you'd think HTC would have thought these devices through a little more, yeah? NO.
seeing as how i can't send a text message without a five second delay. i can't receive a text message without my phone freezing for ten. and god forbid i try and view one message while receiving another one, right?
also consider: the 1ghz processor, 16gb harddrive, 1024mb rom (on some devices), and this thing can't go five minutes without a hiccup? what the hell? D:
maybe my phone is just a screwed copy, but **** n' seriously. i just want to be able to have eye candy that operates decently. i thought that's what the HD2 was for, but it was a huge let down for me.
now, until HTC gets their crap in order and creates a better text engine, or someone ports android over to the HD2, guess what guys? we're F&%KED.
so, enlighten me, xda friendlies. are there additional text engines for the HD2? different programs to use, for faster typing and flawless send/receive features? cause until then, i'm inserting my sim card into my iPhone, as much as i hate apple itself with a burning passion, at least it texts somewhat better.
cause seriously, if i can't even stand to use my own phone, what the hell is the point?
intelligent responses only, go take your immaturities somewhere else.
Have you tried a Custom ROM?
At least try the new upgrade
If your not ready for custom ROM (like me) try the upgrade.
Worked for me, resolving apparently (its still early) all of my previous problems with the phone- like yours.
Good luck. I think this is a good machine, just has a few bugs- thats normal.

it came with a crap load of extras, and i liked that, but the text messaging was back to the version before the HD2, the very same i dealt with on the TP2. didn't like it for some reason.
are there any custom roms that you approve of? if so, please, link me to the page so i can test them out for myself. and thanks in advance.

great machine. too buggy of an OS. not saying others are flawless, but i'd rather not have the only flaws in it related to the major thing i do with the phone. and i have upgraded to the rom that t-moUS release just a week ago. it's still pretty slow for me, considering my fingers move too fast for the keyboard to pick up on. i've already registry edited the lengthymessage thread, making it so the cache is always enabled, and somewhat speeding the system up a little bit when viewing the message itself. but typing is still very slow, and it's driven me up three walls, and back again.
does the text system and keyboard operate faster when SenseUI is disabled, using only the homescreen? cause if so, maybe i can deal with that, too. sense is nice, but not everything.
Try the upgraded ROM. I didnt have that much trouble but it has improved immensely! I can run CHT Again!
Yeah, try the upgrade. I am a major texter, and the new client works perfectly for me.
i have never had an issue with texting on my hd2, i went from the stock shiped to the upgraded 2.13 and never had an issue, now using elegancia 8.5 and still no issues.

i know i'm not the only poor guy out there suffering from bad HD2 messaging. so this is helping more than just me. =]
PLEASE! keep the answers coming.
To be more specific its rom upgrade 2.13, I assume youre still on the stock rom, the new tmous rom upgrade is 2.13, I myself have a custom rom, cleanex uniQ and it comes with the new messaging client and it also doesnt have the junk load of apps on it either just google rom upgrade 2.13, and im sure youll be satisfied with the text messaging I know I am, hope this helps a little buddy

alright, i will check the energyrom page again and investigate. but if i go with energyrom, i would choose the second version which has the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. hopefully this, as well, has the messenger that i need.
i would just divert back to 2.10 which you can get from xmoo's stock ROM thread. 2.13 had me to the point where i wanted to throw my phone at the wall. its incredibly easy to downgrade. an although i gotta be deleting txt after every 20 from a contact.. id rather deal with that then have an extremey slow freezing 2.13 messaging app. i agree with you that its shameful that such a hardware capable phone has such a ****ty messaging app

thank you for seeing this as well, my friend. but keep in mind. i'm a texter. i like keeping my messages. i have a 516 message chain with my girlfriend. and i eventually clear them out, but not willingly. i shouldn't have to clean out my text messages to make my phone operate smoothly. so a good suggestion, but not for me. thanks =]

okay so, i tried out the energyrom with cookie's hometab, and the rom works quite well. ocassionally freezes and needs a reboot, and i wish they could fix that, but it's in progress, so i'm not gonna complain too much. i downloaded the ADDON text message program he included under the addons and fixes link, and the messaging is soo much more fluid. no delays, doesn't matter how many messages i have, and i like it. it's missing the spell check feature, which i liked alot, but i can just be more careful with my spelling, and it'll work for now.
but i have yet another problem! when i receive a mms, the message comes in suuuper small, and it's not the picture either. i would fwd a 260kb photo to myself, and it'll come in at 5kb. not cool, i need that fixed. and also, the mms messaging says the limit is 300K. why is that? i thought t-mobile upped the mms size to 1024K i need that fixed, too. so if anyone has some good intel, please, comment this thread and help us all out!
THANK YOU GUYS!
Yup ROM upgrade 2.13 fixed my texting lag issues.

I text using the phone key pad.. I know most of you think im nuts, but give me a phone with actuall keys and I will out type and spell all of you who use a query or full keboard, i cant stand those two types, anyway stock ROM the typing was awesome I could type almost as fast as on a button phone.
Did the rom update last night, now i have to go at half speed, its terrible.
Phone buttons cant keep up, or will lock up.
If your that heavy into texting get one for the HTC Messaging disabled roms. I run Kumars premium V2.0 and I have had it on there for almost a month now with no issues and no texts deleted which means i have over 2000 on the device and it doesn't freeze

The Energy roms do not come with the HTC messenger, he added it because he wanted. I couldn't agree with you more about using the windows messenger. It works great when you get it threaded. (start>settings>systems>sms threading)
Hello all, I have a big issue with this tilt 2 and that is the sms sent and pressing "X" to go back in the inbox of sms messages, it lags for a good 10-20 and sometimes the whole screen would freeze up because of this.
So I recently bought a tilt 2 and the seller told me he flashed it to a new rom which whenever I turn the phone on, it says Energy Rom so does anyone have a solution to this sms sent lag other than deleting all text messages daily, please help!
Thank you all in advance for your time and suggestions!
Sending a TXT isn't instant... it takes a little bit to log in, transmit, and finish sending the TXT message.. that is most likely the 10-20 sec of "lag" you are experiancing... I use the Energy line of roms myself... and I feel they are the best over all roms out there... period.

And it has nothing to do with the crappy htc sms client? come on it isn't normal that you have to wait 10-20 seconds when you send a sms.

I'd have to agree. A SMS is about 1/7th of a kilobyte and a kilobyte is practically nothing. Sending a SMS doesn't cause a lag. I've been sending SMS since 1998 and WM wasn't even an option back then. It's all Microsoft and their crap OS.
I have to agree, it is the crappy htc sms client to blame, so I'm guessing noone have found a solution to this yet? Have you guys tried to hotfix from htc site?
I owned the tilt 1 and there was no lag at all in sms.
Ok, this is going to sound stupid but I'm not familiar with these types of ROM, such as Energy Rom. Is that the same as Manila 2.5? Or are they completely different?

Its hard to belive that you guys are gaetting that much lag,im running stock everything WM6.5,ive checked speeds with various people and the most i get is 5seconds of lag.
of course if i have running apps,and im not overclocked it hesitates a little..

What Exactly Do You Need Help With?
Maybe I Could Try To Help You.
I am attempting to change the interface on my tilt 2 to android or something else so the sms in threaded mode won't lag and plus im tired of the WinMo appearance. =)
Thank you for your time!
Hi I have the same problem as you and it drives me crazy. tell me if im correct: You are complaining about the fact that after you press x to close a threaded text conversation it lags getting back to the inbox. On mine everything changes back to the inbox except for the top of the screen and then it just sits there till it eventually goes bqck. Your not reffering to how long it takes for you friend to receive the text, correct? Ive tired installing the most current sms program from htc that was taking from another phone and although it looked much niicer and had some cool features it didnt work right and i had to switch back. Maybe somone reading this can suggest something. It sdriving me crazy. as far as changing from the windows look which either you mean what they call titanium which is that homescreen where you have everything in alist and you can scroll up and own through it or do you you mean what they call touch flo or sense where you move along the bottom of the screen through tabs? either way i would highly recomend spb mobile shell which will make your phone similar to android layout. It works great and is reqally easy to customize everything. or at least touch flo/sense with what they call cookies home tab which helps you customize your home screen. Let me know whcih one you have and which one you want and ill help you. I dont know how to program but i do know how to use the phone well, and customize it thanks to all the developers here who provide us with so much to do it with.
@ swaters3, yes that is exactly the probably with sms, it takes forever to go back to inbox screen and it freezes up. I'm not should what layout I have but its WinMo and the previously owner changed the rom the Energy Rom, if that matters. As for the Android layout, I heard I can do a dual boot where I can keep both WinMo and Android on the tilt 2. I was thinking, if I can boot to android that the sms will function right. As of now, I am still stuck with tilt 2 lagging sms threaded mode. Frustrating.
Do you hava a lot of sms or e-mail saved on the phone? That can cause it to bog down.
Yeah, but I originally owned the tilt 1 and had over 4,000 text message and encounter no problem sending out text messages.

i wish someone could help us with the lag, lately ive just learnt to be patient, though that is a little ridiculous. There is a sms program from htc (thecompany that makes the phone) that is much nicer and did not have the lag. I did have some other issues but maybe it will work for you. Search in xda for updated htc sms app and see if you can find it. as far as anroid goes I am trying to get mine to work properly and have still not got it to connect to sprint. Its a work in progress and not everything works so i dont think you would want to switch to it permanently. Give it a shot though its very cool and gets better every few days. As of know I think the camera is still not working but most everything else is. I would recomend spb mobile shell. watch some videos on youtube although you will be able to customize it yourself completely. Youll need to play with it to figure out how to customize it but its pretty easy just drag and drop type of stuff with anything on the phone. It looks and works like android but youll still be suing windows mobile. Its works great for me and i wouldnt be able to keep this phone if not for it. I hope that helps.
