Hi, Cant see an answer or thread about this so here goes. If this has been posted elsewhere please excuse me ..
My HTC HD2 has a random problem when replying to SMS messages. If I use REPLY ,or tag onto the last part of a 'conversation' with a contact, the message has occasionally been going to another contact. It still shows in the 'conversation' with the intended recipient but has actually gone to another....
Hope I've explained that ok .. Any help gratefully received.
Cheers, Will
Lately, I've been getting a few "wrong number" SMSs on my TMOUS HD2, as well as a friend (on AT&T) constantly missing SMSs that have been sent to her from various friends. So far, I believe all my SMSs have went through properly, as far as I can tell.
I'm starting to wonder if it's all coincidence, or something with the carriers.

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.
Since now I have been very happy with WM and especially HTC. But now I discovered, my contact not showing correct on incoming Messages or calls.
What I mean in detail is, that my Numbers are saved to the Phone only by using a Number like: +49179123456.
My Problem is, that now my incoming Messages from saved contacts do not show the Name, because in this case the message is obviously sent by 0170123456. The only way, for now, is to save contacts twice. I already searched the forum and found similar Threads, but none of them could help.
It`s not a huge problem but a little annoying and i would be very thankful if somebody could point me in the right direction.
Greetings from a great Fan of XDA!!
My HD2 is sending text messages to other people that are in my text log. I don't know why. I've done a factory reset on it. I haven't installed any roms or anything. This is straight out of the box t-mobile hd2 (US). This is a serious breach of privacy if I'm texting my gf!
Please advise
Just from a quick google I found two other posts with this same issue on other websites.
hxxp://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=44927
hxxp://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/HTC-HD2/Have-to-exchange-my-HD2-but-just-for-a-new-HD2/m-p/340431
Only possible fix is replacing my sim card? Its less than a year old.
No one else on xDa having this problem?
I don't know what to do I bought the phone from someone online, I can't even get it traded from t-mobile.
no SMS problem here on AT&T with HD2 t9193
my texts work fine, except that if my friend replies in the same minute as me, their text goes above mine, but that is only minor nuisance. i haven't experienced anything you talk about. sorry i can't help.
wow, how am I the ONLY person with this issue on xda
I am having the same issue. It is sending texts to wrong person who is already in the text log...not to multiple people though. I bought my hd2 from tmobile store. I enabled the traditional mode in the text settings and that took care of the text messaging problem. looks like there is some bug in the sms software loaded on hd2.
me too.

Thank God I am not crazy. I thought that it was me. I sent a text message to one person and three people responded?!?! Irealized I was not crazy when two contact pictures showed up in the original persons thread of messages. I need to know what the fix is myself. I will call customer service tonight to let them know. I will report back with any news,
one of my friends had this same issue I planned on changing the rom on her phone but if something else works let me know thanks!

I got the problem to go away after I imported all the contacts from the SIM. Do this and report back if this worked for you guys. Good luck!

Do you mean add all the contacts "to" the sim card? All I have done was use the microsoft myphone feature to grab all the contacts. please clarify a bit for me. thanks.
Im having the same problem on my hd2 (us) as well. I even exchanged it and Iv had it for about 3 days and am still having the same problem. Does getting a new sim card for sure fix the problem 100%?
I returned the first HD2 I had and got another one. The problem went away until today. Not pleased. I swear, I have never had the amount of problems with a phone - out the box - that I am having with this phone.

There should be a program called SIM MANAGER you click on that and copy all your sim contacts to your phone. I think that is what he meant.
Have you tried removing HTC messaging and going with a different program?

Hate to not stay on topic here, but for this issue, I found out that hd2 uses client time for outgoing messages, but server time for incoming ones, which is why they seem out of order. Syncing the time fixed it for me.
^ How did you snyc the time?
No problem here..thats kinda odd indeed

...To have the bloody thing read an SMS message?
I have looked, but cannot find this though I know it can do it.
I'm still trying to figure out the command to make it wash my dishes.

Based on what I've seen, MS voice command doesn't work right on the HD2. It wont read your SMS messages - and even worse it won't announce your incoming caller's info either.
Someone out here on the forum talked to HTC about the problem & they know about it (not that they've fixed it)
Thank you for that.
I spoke to a rep at Tmo and one at HTC and both said they were unsure that the device cold do this.
I told them I was POSITIVE that it is supposd to be able to do it, but no one had an answer.
Appreciate the info.
I've been using MS Voice Command to read the subject of urgently marked e-mail messages for a number of years on various WM devices. On my TMOUSA HD2 it almost works--only about the first half of the subject is read aloud. The second half gets read aloud when the next e-mail message is received.
It seems like is must be a filled/over-filled buffer problem/bug.
Hi guys,
I have an SMS related problem that I am hoping you can help me sort out.
Just recently I have stopped receiving sms messages from one contact (my Wife). I get a message tone and the sms logo come up on top bar to indicate that I have a message but it does not appear in the message box. This started happening just a couple of days ago. It doesn't happen with anyone else (no laughing). No jokes please. Would really like to sort this one
I have an HD2; OS 5.2.23569; Manilla 2.5.201; ROM Duttys Holy Grail; Radio 2.12.50
I cooked the rom weeks ago so i cannot believe that is a problem.
Any help very much appreciated
Hi,
try to delete your wifes contact from sim card and create new one.
that worked...cheers.
However, another problem has now arisen: when I send a sms to someone (person A) it gets sent to someone completely different (person B,C,D,E etc). But the sms shows in the correct person's message conversation!!!!!!!!!
Example: last night I sent a sms to person A. Person D replied saying 'what the hell is that all about?' but the message appeared in person A's conversation!
Maybe I need a new rom
