Hi all,
I made a cab from the 2009-12-15 Leo SMS fix (http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=812&news_id=407), so this can be installed on other devices with Sense 2.5..
I'm on a sense 2.1 rom currently, so can't test it...So be careful, it might break ur SMS function, test with your own risk and always backup (I guess the new 2.02 package has the update already or even a better fix)..
happy new year!!

i'm not sure what it fixes... but it doesn't seem to fix the annoying slow messaging thingy... I was just coverting the .exe which can only be installed on HD2 to a cab that can be installed on every device..
I have heard that the htc messaging in the 2.02 pack is fast, anyone tried it?
what is your point in creating a thread with a cab entitled "sms fix" and you are
not sure what it does? shouldn't you have tested it first and shared to us what
exactly it can help?
no offense, but i agree with jigners... hopefully the OP has had time to test it by now!

Am I the only one in this thread that uses the actual HTC site? or do people just like to hijack threads and flame people who are doing what they can to help the community... As I remember no one else knew what the Leo Camera Fix did either, but it proved useful, at least for some.

Looks to me like HTC don't really say what the fix "fixes" but THANKS for creating the CAB, i'll have a look and see what it effects if anything. If it's worth it I'll cook it in for my next flash
Okay, have just installed the CAB.
So far no noticable difference when sending / recieving SMS.
I'm using my own custom ROM, using WinMo 6.5 28014, and most of the packages from Leo 1.48.
Thanks again for the CAB anyway.

@Jigners
When the fix first came out, I tried it but it won't install on hd. and now I learned how to create the cab, so I just made it. I need to have my phone switched on all day right now and I'm with a sense 2.1 ROM, so can't test it, but I thought someone with a lower leo build may want to try it...
yes, you are right..sorry for let you down.. I won't do it next time.
@Swarvey&PooPoo
Sorry for wasting your time... thanks for your kind words
also gonna give it a go
still on a energy rom of 23-09 whit m2.51919
will report back later
ps gonna restore over 800 messages to test it to the ultimate
well tested it and it works sort off
i can type directly but the message im replying to isnt shown
so its kinda a fix
hi,
have you tried restoring tons of messages to see if the slowness has been somehow fixed ? Last time I've tried with 2.5 the phone almost got stuck (with about 600 messages)

I sort of think the 2 posts directly above your post answers that question don't they
thanks, I could read those, but I'd like a bit more of an explanation:
you installed the fix and restored tons of sms, what I'd like to know is this:
- adding a contact with a lot of sms history to favourites slows down the phone ?
- opening such contact slows down everything ?
- I understand there is no sms history shown in the manila contact at all ? actually that point isn't very clear to me. where is that the original message is not shown ?
what I'd like to know, if you have got time to explain it to me, is what actually the fix changes, and how fast it makes opening sms history on a contact.
One last minor point is that a big sms history had most sms cut to one or two lines.
Regards
Andy

well for from the contact page i cannot tell you as i have flashed my phone a couple of times afterwords(im trying to build my own)
for the sms not shown
when i get a new message i go the message tab and click the sms
there im supposed to see the threaded conversation between the person im replying to
the whole conversation doesnt load(waited about 3 min)
but i can directly type a reply to the text message whitout a lag
hope this sorts of that question

I have tested this, it works
does it work for 2.1 manila?
and come on people! just thank this guy for even bothering to create a cab and sharing it in this community.

no, the sms fix is only for Leo package lower than 1.49...and the weather fix is for any sense 2.5.. I think 2.1 manila does not need any fix, both sunny animation and sms are working ok in 2.1 manila
Hi all,
appreciate your kind advice.. hard resetting to install ROM is always a chore and i wish to make sure there is reason to do so..
am on 1.48 stock now and should i change to stock 1.66?
the description of HTC leaves more ? for me..
any kind experts know of the improvement it brings?
i saw HTC release yet another SMS update.. Duh does the 1.66 require all those crazy updates?
hi experts do help to advise if the upgrade is worth it.. the pain of hardreset is terrible,.,
Think it depends on your expectations. If you read through the lots of 1.66-ROM-Threads around here, you can see that the big majority would suggest to upgrade because the performance went better. Beneath that also the HotFixes are implemented and you are so able to save a lot of disk space on your phone. I tried the WWE-version of the ROM and I really liked it - includes also several bug-fixes that are quite annoying with 1.48. e.g. the lock-bug. We don't have this ROM here in GER already and I can't wait to install our final release!

It's definitely better, and I've only seen a couple of minor gripes about it since it came out. I'd expect the forum to be full of complaints if it wasn't doing a decent job.
ok.. today shall be a hard reset day for me...
Cool, will prolly update my (mostly patched) 1.43 to 1.66 today aswell, thx for the infos de Wolfe & johncmolyneux
Yeah I really like the 1.66 WWE ROM. I went from the 1.48 WWE rom to 1.66 and haven't had any regrets! Performance is idd better, bluetooth problem for me, seems to be gone (It wouldnt go up from time to time), and no sms bug....yet :O
--edit
I only have it 3 full days installed, so maybe my perspective will change :x (i hope not!)
I would suggest looking if you have any problems with 1.48, if you don't then stay with it. I upgraded from 1.48 to 1.66 (admittedly my SMS always sent and i havent tried bluetooth at all yet) but 1.66 has an annoying bug with text messages where it selects the message you are replying to.
If you're replying to a message when the previous messages in that conversation are finished loading the screen will scroll to the message you're replying to meaning the the text entry box isn't visible on the screen any more. Just an annoyance which HTC apparently call a feature - it would be a feature if it were immediate but not when you're already typing. But it is annoying not critical to phone use.

i concur, how can that be a feature when i cant even see what I'm typing
Ive upgraded with 1.66 my HD2 is from the UK.
seems pretty stable for now, did revert the back up of my SMS and it is stable i'd say.
however, i can see the following on the field to enter the number when u select a new SMS or compose sms. it says "limited to 10 recipients" which i did not notice on 1.48 ROM. is this normal, does any one of you have it too..
cheers

That is normal mate. The restriction was already there before but it didn't advertise it. You can increase it to 50 with BsB Tweaks (for Christmas and New Year )
lol i like this christmas and ny !!
so all in all, the benefits should be more than cons.. versus 1.48

Definitely. I've only seen people complaining about 1 thing consistently, and it's just a new "feature". When you reply to a text, it automatically highlights the text that you're replying to, even if you'd already started typing. It's hardly the end of the world - you just open the keyboard again and you're back in the reply box.
Other than that, I've only seen 1-off issues, none of which are showstoppers.
It's worth it just for the silkiness aspect. It's smooth as anything now

Yes mate, but I've never had a problem installing it anyway. Maybe you should look for a different cab. I've heard of people having issues installing .Net 3.5 before now and it's always been resolved by finding a different cab.

This, I often flash whilst at work, and it takes longer to download a new ROM than to get my phone exactly I want it again.
I use PPCPimBackup for texts/contacts.
Yes, (I believe) the "limited to 10 recipients" is normal for SMS with the 1.66 Upgrade, AND we've seen it before.
On the 14 Jan 2010 - see "Update for HTC HD2 – New SMS Function Update [14.01.2010]" thread started by Irbperia - HTC issued an SMS Update which was shortly afterwards withdrawn - probably a hasty precursor to the 1.66 ROM Upgrade which followed. It also added the "limited to 10 recipients" to SMS.
Having had my own fair share of HD2 grief, I've been following this forum for a while now looking for answers and I think that thanks to HTC's hasty pre-Christmas release of the HD2 - before its ROM was really ready - we're all getting a little paranoid in thinking any little quirk might be yet another bug.
The 1.66 ROM Upgrade seems to have sorted out most issues and (for me at least) the phone was great even with its false start but now it's a real pleasure to use. Maybe we should all relax a little and enjoy what is still arguably the very best WinMo phone out there !!!
All power to you HTC ... (but I hope you're learning from your mistakes and Production please resist being bullied into another premature release by Marketing)

Reading this I just did a backup using my SPB backup and did a upgrade to 1.66 from 1.48.

Hello
I have been browsing the forums for a few days trying to find a fix for my problem.
When I have a conversation using sms, I can see the replies from friends but when I want to write a new message, i tap to compose message ,the keyboard takes 5 secs to appear sometimes longer.
The conversation only has 12 messages, if I delete a few this speeds up the opening of the keyboard.
Is there any way to stop this lag? It seems like the messenger rebuilds the conversation and will not allow me to write anything until its ready.
Thanks for any help
You should install the latest official ROM or the bugfixes. All in HTC's web page...

I assumed that as there is no UK version there that I can't use it? Will give it ago.

I think htc is trying to fix this problem. My hd2 is updated with the latest rom and firmware and I still have that problem. Hopefully htc will release the fix update shorttly = /
issue is due to the messaging app trying to load all the past sent and received messages while you type, the lag gets worse the more messages you have.
uk version, not tmobile?
I used sea wwe 1.66 version, don't have any bugs,hope it works,,,Quig

You see i have a different problem, my keyboard opens up fine and fast its just when im actually typing it lags and takes a half second to input a letter, it dosnt seem long at all but if your writing a sentence it takes over double the time it SHOULD take. Any suggestions on how to make my keyboard letters lagless? (not lag anymore lol)
HTC Messaging is a big bag of BROKEN. If I was to rate there messaging app I would give it 0. Try using a ROM that has no HTC Messaging like Energy. Kwbr use to be my fav but he stop cooking roms without htc messaging .... very dissapointing
Hi everybody,
I read a lot about problems with the sms function, and I just noticed on HTC's website they have posted an upgrade for this problem in particular....
I saw I couldn't post the link here but you know how to get to the upgrade...
Just go to the HTC website and select the support section.
So I just thought i'd bring it to everybody's attention...my eyes are like a hawk attuned to HTC lol
Best of luck.
Joey
Can anyone tell me what problems these updates actually address? On the HTC website it just says SMS stability but doesn't explain more
We lost our files with the updates??
no no data will be erased, it's only a hotfix!
This hotfix will be unnecessary if you upgrade to the new ROM instead.

ROM update is like firmware update. They try to root out bugs or improve performance from the older version.
Yes, you can download the new ROM from htc.com. go to support link. You need to provide your phone serial number, just to check if this ROM is compatible to your device.

Thank you. I'm downloading now.
Best regards,
I am having really big issues with SMS handling.
I do have the 1.36 update and also have the SMS-hotfix.
I have imported aproximately 3000 SMS via MyPhone.
When replying to an SMS it takes on average 5-6 seconds before I can start writing. Is this normal? If a contact has alot of SMS's, then it takes even longer...
Apparently, HTC Messages is designed for less than 100 messages only.
I've lodged my complaint on HTC Support.
I encourage you, and everybody, to register complaints of this dismal messaging app.
It's the only way to get HTC's attention. And force them to do something about it.
I just got an answer from HTC support. Appearently all SMS, etc is stored in internal memory, so the more stuff you got in there, the slower the device gets. Guess I just have to start deleting...
Err, ah....
I was thinking of upgrading the ROM to the 1.36 and went to the HTC download page. There I found these versions available: Greece: 1.36.482.1, Portugal: 1.36.410.1, France: 1.36.406.1, Denmark: 1.36.403.1, Italy: 1.36.408.1, Europe: 1.36.401.1, Spain: 1.36.412.1, Russian Federation: 1.36.411.1, Sweden: 1.36.413.1, Germany: 1.36.407.1, Nederland: 1.36.404.1, East Europe: 1.36.479.1, Norway: 1.36.409.1. So what's the difference and how do I know which one to choose as I am not in one of the country's specifically named. I guess I could go for "Europe" but I must admit to being a tad confused.
Can somebody inform me?
Thanks
which country are you actually in?
Hungary and I do NOT speak the language. )

That's not it. HTC messaging is slow even if you have 30 messages. Normal Windows Mobile phone should handle several thousands of messages, before there will be any slow down. My previous phone, Asus P750 with only 64mb ram, can handle in excess of 20,000 messages, before it started to have a slight slow down. If HTC can't handle 20,000 messages, that's ok. We're not asking that much. But at least it should be able to handle 5,000 or 6,000 without any slow down. At the worst of the worst, it should be able to handle 3,000. Like any other windows mobile phone can.
SO don't swallow that BS explanation of HTC. It's wrong. There's something wrong with HTC messaging. THey'll have to admit it first, before we can expect them to dig in and root out the bugs.
HTC customer support is very LAZY. Damn TOO LAZY. Always trying to squeeze into an easy way out. We should not let them get away with this.

Any idea about that
Hello all,
I recently bought an HD2 again (after a rubbish galaxy S) and this time I installed android. (DFT stock desire rom)
everything works great, except for the following.
When I enter e number in contact in format 0475123456 or +32475123456 (belgian formats) and I call the number there is no problem.
but when I enter the SMS menu, and I press the call button he displays the number 32475123456, so not starting with 0 and not with +32 as it should be.
Now sometimes these SMS messages do not arrive at its destination. And when I call from out the SMS menu, I end up at a different location then the number I wanted to reach. Very strange, but mostly it is a fixed line number, and not a mobile number...
I think the 32475123456 number can be the problem that sometimes SMS messages do not arrive...
Can somebody think of anything this can be?
thanks for your answer!
grtz
I have the same problem. Pity that no one can help. If you managed to solve it, please let us know how
You can try 0032 instead of +32 for all your contacts ..
it doesn't help, I use operator 'Orange' in Poland, still can't sent SMS otherwise than by entering the number manually
Will the problem be solved when I flash another android rom maybe?

Yes it will... There is also a script that can solve I though(search something like "xda android dialer fix script" on google), but you might want to try a different rom as the battery drainage of this rom is pretty bad(smoothness is still unbeated though).
Hint go for gingerbread...
thanks man, now at least I know there s a fix, when I install another rom. I was already thinking of going to gingerbread. I like the nexus HD2 one, is that a good one?
