SIM card memory full

Hello,
Could anyone help me? I keep getting a SIM card memory is full message although I have removed all of my contacts from there as well as deleted all of the messages. Also, how could I get my emails to be stored in the SD card? Just one more question, Everytime I try to access the phone stttings, I get a "phone not ready, retry in 15 seconds". does anyone know what this is about???

strange, sms are stored on the phone by default and not the sim.
Mails are not stored on the sim but the phone memory. You must have filled the memory. You can choose to store the atachments on the sd card via the mail options or you can read this tread for storing mails and mms on the sd card.

i wonder why it stopped at four, though. after the fourth, all messages stopped being saved to the sim and it hasn't happened since. i haven't changed anything so i'm terribly confused!

So far, what I can suggest is for you guys to load the SIM card into any 3G/HSDPA modem client. This client will show the SMS contents in the SIM card. You can then delete them from this client.

what is 3G/HSDPA modem client?

bump this up, still need help!

anyone? anyone at all?

happened to me on AT&T when we went to DST a few months back. I don't even have a clue on how to save SMS with the HTC messaging client let alone how to delete it. After a few days the messages would disappear complete and all order has been restored.

I'm having the same problem man..I even called t-mobile "htc hd2 experts", but all they did is the same thing as what everyone else on this topic is doing lol...

I have the same problem here :-(

I have a message saved on my sim card that I can't delete either. It's annoying. Anyone found a solution to this? Is there a way to browse the sim from the file explorer?

bump. also have this problem

I try to found a solution, but I just has been reading about delete them from a SIM Card USB reader :-(

you gotta transfer your sim card to a different phone and delete the msgs there. thats what i did and it worked. I used a sony ericcson k800 phone to do it. Im not sure if theres a certain phone to transfer to but im guessing a non HD2 phone? haha

Finally I can delete the messages. I put my SIM Card in other phone (BlackBerry) and delete the SMS from there and put back the SIM Card on my HTC HD2 and the messages was deleted!

Same problem here. I can 'get around' it by putting the SIM card into another phone, but that is unacceptable as a long-term workaround. Some messages are delivered straight to the SIM, and having to swap the card once a week or more is not making me happy with the device.
Is there a 3rd parry software package that allows one to delete sms messages from the SIM?

Disable SMS copy to SIM
::bump::​
Can we work on a patch to disable SMS copy to SIM?
That way when its accidentally copied we don't have to pull out the SIM to delete it on another device.

hey everyone, I've been lurking for quite some time now. Finally have something noteworthy to share. I had the same problem with SMS saved to my SIM...just go to your SIM manager...copy your SIM contacts onto your device...then delete the contacts left on your SIM. I then used PIM backup to store my contacts onto my SD card...just in case my phone goes to sh!t.

Same problem. Reported it to Tmo
They dont know balls.
I tried everything. Put Sim in another phone tried deleting the message but wouldnt work.
Even ordered a new sim card. Lasted about two weeks before the phantom voicemail/129 text started popping up again.
Text from 129 its part of the HD2 on TMO, accept it.

Annoying "129" text msg after reboot

Every single time i reboot the phone, i get the "129" text msg with blank content. It has the little memory card symbol. I think i click save to memory card by accident one time. I tried clicking move to phone and delete it right after. It didn't work. anyone has a solulation?

Yea its a stock message preloaded on the memory card. Easiest way is to push and hold select "move to phone" then repeat and just delete it. Next time your phone boots it should be gone -Cheers

What I've seen has to do with that "129" message being saved on the SD card. Once I found it and deleted it, I stopped getting it on every reboot.

i'm still getting it!!!!

Took my sim card out and reboot. Still got the text msg.

Try popping your SIM into another phone that can read the text messages on the card, and delete it from there. Other members with the HD2 have reported having to do that to get it to stay deleted (the HD2 seems to have an issue with that).

The one time I called TMO support about 129 was a couple of years ago, on a $35 nokia pre paid phone. At the time they explained that it happens when a text message either doesn't immediately go/come through.
I get it occasionally on the HD2. I just delete it.

I delete the text msg and shut off the phone. Before turning it on, i remove the memory card but i still get the same text msg.

I just had this pop up when I upgraded to the T-Mobile 2.13 ROM. The way I permanently got rid of it was to delete it normally (from the Inbox) AND go to All Messages, select Deleted Messages, and delete it from the Deleted Messages.
It seems because it is a "system" message it gets stored to the SIM, and if you just delete it from the SMS inbox it comes back since it is still in the Deleted Messages folder, and the SIM must restore it after a reboot.
Deleting from both places made sure it was gone for good.

Yup it worked. thanks.
Now, do you know why swipe appears at the boot up screen? I have a password lock. Everytime it gets to inputing the password, the swipe thing on the bottom middle appears. any solution there?

SIM Card

Hi All
Have searched for similar threads with no luck, so I hope this is in the right place and not going over what others have sorted out.
My phone is at HTC Touch Diamond 2 with WM6.5. I used to be able to store 100s of messages on the phone, decided to clear them out, and now every time a message comes through it says that the SIM card is full and I need to delete messages to free up space. When I look there are none, I have checked the deleted and there are none left in there. Is there a way to have messages saved to the SD card instead of the SIM, or is there something I am missing.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] sim memory full?

The Focus seems to be storing my messages on my SIM and so i'm running out of space pretty fast. Is it supposed to do that? I figured it'd keep it on the memory card or at least on the phone.

What type of Focus do you have, what OS version etc.
How many contacts and messages do you have? Are all those on the SIM?
Messages are stored by the OS in Focus i917 on internal storage, so unless the global memory is getting very low on free space, I don't see how it's possible what you're describing.

I have the Focus I917 with Mango installed. I do have contacts on my sim but they were all imported into the phone's memory.
But I just had a thought. I was using a dumb-phone earlier and it was storing messages on my SIM. I never deleted those messages so maybe it created the threads for those messages on the SIM itself.
I Cleared the SIM now, so i'll text like crazy for a bit and then post back here if it happens again.
Cheers
