ok so this phone is the best phone i have had.. except who ever tested the text messaging app must not have alot of friends..
i get about 20 people in the list of messages and my whole phone messes up..
i click one guy and the message gets sent to the guy at the bottom of the list.
you gotta really watch out, because it has the right name but the wrong number.
when i click messages from someone with more then 20 it takes 20 seconds to load them up and sometimes when i go back to the today screen the phone crashes..
sometimes i hear the text message sound and i have no new messages..
come to find out the message went ON TOP of the list from that sender.. not on the bottom.
sometimes the indicator that you have a new message never goes away, even after you read it..
anyone else having huge text problems?
first of all great title
im completely with you mate the texting on this phone is a joke
who's clever idea was it to load every single text every time you want to send 1?
plus the keyboard lag is a royal pain in the ass especially as im a fast typer
i have had no problems with sending texts to wrong people however, i think, maybe some people are having a real laugh at my expense..
i hope it gets fixed soon
i just dont understand how an iphone, with some 400mhz processor is 100x smoother than this phone
there must be some real fault somewhere

that was really funny.
ROM 1.66 fixed much of this, but still known bugs remain - as reported in this forum.
You were lucky not to be around in Dec 09, when you had to soft reset every time you sent an sms which got 'stuck' in the Outbox!!!

The HTC messaging app is not meant for hardcore text messagers. To stop it from loading every message, you can tap on a message then hit back.
One of the solutions is to disable the HTC messaging and use the default WM6.5 threaded SMS. Google search "disable HTC messaging" and look for Zenyee's CAB to disable it, then look in the WM Theme forum here to find some nice looking WM SMS themes.
The other solution is to disable HTC messaging and use something like BsB Tweaks to enable SMS classic mode, which takes you to an older version of the SMS app when you tap on a message in the messaging tab, that doesn't lag like the new one does, but it doesn't look as nice.

I send 100-150 texts a day, and receive just as much.
I never have any problems.
i use full QWERTY and texting speed is quite nice. I mean, multi-touch keyboard would be NICE, but it gets the job done for now.
As much as TMOUS stock ROM fixed lots of glitches, it still doesn't beat most of the ROMs cooked by chefs here.
Try flashing (at your own risk, of course), then see how much your phone has evolved.
Have you tried changing it from conversation mode to traditional mode?
Menu, settings, traditional mode
are there any different messaging clients which can be used instead?
Hi guys,
as the title says... is Lookout mobile working in belgium?
I've installled wavesecure on my Magic a while back when it just came out on the market (and was free) but now I have a desire and I don't like the subscription part...
I found Lookout mobile security which pretty much seems to be doing the same thing but I can't seem to connect.
Is this working for anyone in belgium? A friend of mine can't make connection neither, we're both on Proximus...
cheers

Well I tried Lookout and it works sometimes... It can only connect if I change some program settings. If I change backup from disabled to enabled (or vice versa), it connects and uploads my location. Very strange. Also, the settings menu on mylookout.com doesn't remember the settings if I change something. When I select "Notify me by email when my phone is located" and click "save", the box remains unchecked.
It's useless to have an anti-theft program that only works if you change something on your phone.
I'm still looking for the ideal software... I tried antidroidtheft, but it drains battery. Wave secure is not free. Mobile defense is not available in all countries. Some other programs don't have internet tracking...
yep... noticed the same behaviour... also when you kill the process it's game over so not really usefull... wavesecure is VERY good but costs too much imho
Anyway I'm gonna keep it, you never know when it gets stolen (hope not) the thief might be a dumbass
ps had a free "lifetime" subscription on Wavesecure when it was first released on the market, turned out to be "lifetime of the phone" so if you change phone, bye bye license
Hi. I'm having very big issues with my new myTouch 4G.
This whole downloading of widgets worked for me couple of times since I bought this phone. I was able to download some widget for my gMail, called "Gmail 2.3", "Facebook", "Stopwatch", and many other ones. The way that I would download them was: I would long press on any empty portion of any screen/tab or even go a totally empty tab, after I would get a little menu with choice of out of four (4) items -"Shortcuts", "Widgets", "Folder", and "Wallpaper" and all four (4) items have a little arrow down - button (to select it). Since I would want to install some widget on my screen, I tap arrow-down next to "Widgets". It brings me up all available widgets that are already preinstalled on my device (T-Mo or HTC puts them there), if you don't find a widget which you need, out of preinstalled ones (and most likely you won't because there are 30 of them there TOPS), you can press on "Get more widgets" (in the list along other 4 choices) and it allows you to do a word search/title for a widget that you want. BUT for me - it doesn't open up that search box, anymore. Instead it says in white letters "Unable to download widgets. Tap to try again.” Now when I call T-Mo they don't understand what is it that I want to do. They tell me, how you can ONLY use widgets that are pre-installed on the device, and it never allows you to download any more. I had this issue once before, and I got scared so I exchanged my device. I just bought it back then; only 6 days had passed, so I was still able to return/exchange it. I was within the return/exchange period back then, but not now. And the problem is back
Do I need to install some update somehow? Or what do I do?? If YES for the update, then how??
Thank You All! For your help!
Mine does it too... AFAIK HTC is having some speedbumps with this phones launch, but they should be ironed out relatively soon...
Plus we just got full root... one of the devs will prolly come up with some sort of fix (assuming its a problem on the handset vs their server)

So you say "Wait, and it'll be resolved"?
I just bought my MT4G today, and I'm experiencing the same problem. I have not been able to download any widgets yet, so I'm looking forward to this working for me.
Hey guys, HTC Arrive owner here, and I just wanted to ask a question, mostly because I haven't seen it anywhere on the internet, and I don't have a Verizon store convenient to me that has a Trophy on display to try this with.
Does the Trophy (NoDo or Mango, doesn't matter) allow you to create messages over 160 characters? Does it split them, or does it just stop you (saying something like "Message is too long")?
I just wanted to ask because the Arrive currently is stuck with a 160-character cap, and I am trying to find out if it's because WP7 doesn't know how to step around that limit (on CDMA networks), or if it's just isolated to Sprint.
Thanks in advance.
I don't think this is the case on the trophy

If that's the case, it's isolated to the phone.
If anyone else could chime in confirming this, it'd be awesome.
Chiming in letting you know that it's definitely not the case. I'm pretty sure it splits it, but I know for a fact you can go over 160.
Yes, it does split the messages. This is related to SMS, and is not specific to the Trophy. At 130 characters, it will show you the character count. After 160 characters, it splits the message.
I called htc on this issue and they claim its a carrier issue called microsoft they claim its a htc issue and possibley a carrier issue ive pounded the pavement on this im going to take this phone and find who ever designed the software and give them a not so nice piece of mind. i mean really this is ridiculous i cant send segmented choppedn up messages to my clients its a joke. i mean ive had a htc snap tp and a tp2 non of them had this issue no problem after you reach a certain amount of characters bam message 2. That what the receiver wont think i am a moron and cannot finish my messages because right now before i have a chance to type of the second half of my thought i get a reply from ther receiver say huh is there more to your message its madening and im pissed off. How hard is it some top paid programmers cant hash out its a insult to their skills if they are that stupid to leave something so basic out of the equation.
Got an AmazFit A1602 watch, Chinese ROM. Set it up, updated it, played with PACEified for a few seconds (hadn't figured out how to OTA the stock ROM yet, so it hung-up when screen went off), went back to Chinese ROM, OTA'd it, reset it in English, and that's where I left it for about a week. Worked great, loved the watch. But, coming from a Gear Live (that wore out), I can't stand not getting my notifications on the watch...
So I dug further into it. Replaced the Chinese ROM with the English ROM - now it thinks it's an A1612 PACE. Kewl. Whatever. App works, everything works, repaired the recovery and OTA works (wellp, now I'm stuck on it, after finding the bootloader is now locked). But NOTIFICATIONS still don't work!
Tried it on a different device - my Nexus 7 tablet. Still no notifications.
Tried reinstalling, tried different app versions, tried everything I can find and think of. No. Notifications.
Do they even work for anyone else?

I might just offer "ad-free" for anyone that can actually help, throw a bounty out there and see if someone can help me. I usually end up asking the hard questions nobody can answer :fingers-crossed:
Probably you've tried this already but it's worth to repeat procedure.
After you paired the watch with your phone, you have to enable notifications in the app, choose witch notifications you want to allow/block and let the amazfit app to access notifications. Last part is usually under Android settings, security. Sounds complicated but it's good to have full control.
Notifications worsk perfectly for me.

Yep, that's the first thing I try - but I appreciate the reply/bump! I think I might throw that bounty out there (if legal to do so) - I'd throw $15 at this problem to get it fixed. Hopefully that's how the donate option works
I enabled notification access to Amazfit app in the Android settings. Under the "notifications" options in the app, I get a miles-long list of apps on the phone, but they are all under the option to "disallow app notifications" -- no apps appear at the top of the page under "Allow app notifications". Presumably the top section is for apps that have sent notifications.
I also "disable battery optimization" and allow contact access for the watch as well.
My phone is a Huawei Honor 5x (kiwi) running CM13 (20161223 nightly) - but also tried on the Nexus 7 (2013) tablet running stock OS, unrooted.
Each app on that list have a switch on the right to enable notifications and move it to the "Allow app notifications".

Screenshots how should look like. Latest dev app does not have push notifications but has another tab. Of course, watch must be connected to the phone to be able to receive notifications. But that's obvious Btw, I didn't touch batter optimization.
Btw, Frys still has the watch on $30 off.
p.s.
Now I see that you're my neighbor

That was it!! Goddamn Chingrish... to me, it looked like that settings page was divided into two - apps that had sent notifications in the past, which I could turn off "allow notifications", and apps that hadn't sent notifications and I could "disallow" them from ever doing so. The Chingrish part is that they should be saying "Allowed" and "Disallowed" notifications... not "allow"/"disallow". It simply doesn't make sense to divide them solely by their switch setting... and since I had no intention of disallowing an app's notifications, I never tried switching ones from the bottom! Also doesn't make a lick of sense to disable them all by default - easily seems like it's malfunctioning. I just went through and switched everything up to "allowed" like it is in Android Wear by default.
Wellp, I got a SMS buzz on my wrist for the first time, and everything is awesome now.
Now I have a new problem...

Just sharing my experience. My notifications stopped working and I went through all the above to no avail. Finally I realised I must have accidentally turned on Silent Mode at some point. It may help to check on your watch that Silent Mode is OFF

Gmail doesn't push notifications to watch
Hi all,
I m experiencing this issue and I really cannot understand what is going wrong and why it does it...i recently purchased amazfit stratos English version and I was not very satisfied with the notifications capabilities..i could only see the first email and read it all way down but if a second mail arrived I could only see the gmail logo and a number( indicating the number of the mails that I have) ..but wasn't able to read each message...very frustrating...same for other apps...Viber and line messenger if I receive more than one message I can only read the last one....so I decide to go with the watchdroid app for the phone and assistant for the watch... everything is running smoothly now,I can even reply to messages (for some reason only sms messages not Viber or line) BUT I do NOT receive my mails from gmail...something that with the amazfit app I could...well I could not read them if they were more than one but the push service was working...with watchdroid gmail push notifications do not work....any help would be appreciated guys!
Thanks in advance,
Stratos
