i have two text messages which every time i delete them, they reappear. they are the only two which have an icon nxt to them which resembles a sim card, but i kind of think it is actually an sd card. however there is a diagonal corner cut off the icon which strongly resembles a sim card.
i cant seem to find these messages anywhere and i dont know how to check my sim card, so here i am asking the group if they have any suggestions.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
Sorry if this has been posted before; I couldn't find the answer...
I had some text messages on my SIM in the 'drafts' folder and they showed up on the TF3D messages screen. I deleted them from within the TF3D interface, but when I restart my HD the drafts reapear. I can't find them from in the WinMo messages part and when I punt my SIM in an other device, the drafts are gone too.
This means (I guess) that they are cached somewhere by TF3D, but I can't seem to find something to help me.
Greets!
LOL finally somebody who has the same problem as me. I took a sim card from my Blackberry to my Touch Diamond, which had that problem, then my HD, which has the same problem with the same 3 messages.
It's messages with only numbers in them...
They return on soft reset because winmo won't really delete them, only their representation on the phone memory for some stupid reason.
They are stored in your SIM card. Delete all messages from your SIM card using the old phone you used, then re insert in your HD.
That should do the trick.
I already tried that and the (old) phone couldn't find my messages. Since it worked for you, I retried with another old phone and that one did show the messages and I was able to delete them. Thanks!
Hello guys, I'm new to X1.
I put in my old SIM card and when I click Contacts, no numbers there. Tried pulling out the card and insert back in, no luck.
I went into SIM manager, it loads for 10 seconds then an error message pops up saying Undetermined Error... what gives?
Please help, I have some important numbers that I doubt I can get them back.
Bump... Please help guys... I tried google and search but no answers...
Hi there,
Having the exact same problem.
All the more strange, since I put my card in another X1 and there everything works fine.
I think this is a bug in the SIM manager version.
Did not find any solution, but I came up with this workaround:
I downloaded SIm Manager v1.4, copied the cab file to the X1 and installeded it. Your X1 SIM Manager is then replaced.
Start the SIm Manager and you will find it opens without the error.
Choose copy from SIM to phone and you can actually see your contacts.
I then copied all my contacts to the phone and I have now full acces.
In fact, it is more convenient, since managing the contacts in the phones memory gives you more possibilities, adding exttra info, using longer names, etc.
Hope this helps.

speaking of sim manager, does anyone know why it wont let me delete my contact on the sim card?
When I try pulling up peoples names when typing messages etc, I will always get two of each, because they are also stored on the sim card with "name /m, or/w" or whatever.
I try to do select all...delete, but no such luck
I get an error saying:
The memory is full. Please delete some messages.
What does it mean?
And the error keeps popping up
I read somewhere it was because the sim sms box was full. I mean with 1gb rom and 16gb sd card why does it not store this information on the rom or sdcard?

The error can come from having Pics, Videos, Email, Ringtones all saved to the phone instead of the SD card. I would go through what is in your Documents folder and move everything to your SD card. It can also come from having programs installed to the phone memory.
Go to SMS. Delete any messages from T-Mobile or whatever your system provider is.
Then All Messages in the lower left
Menu on the right
Scroll down to Tools
Choose Empty Deleted Items
I had this problem too. Apparently by default it only moves deleted SMS to a "trash" until you do this.
But my memory is not full. I guess if have to delete some messages I will.
I had this same issue with one of my users, turned out to be the sim card. It was an older sim and i guess they do not have the same amount of memory as the newer ones. Get yourself a new sim and you will be GTG.
Messages stored on sim
GO to you messages and delete the messages with the icon of a sim card next to them. I just had this issue with my HD2 and now its solved.

I figured this out a little while ago, but it is still dumb that we get such an error.

Well it's referring to the memory on your SIM, not on your phone. The best way to avoid this is to just make sure you have the contacts on your SIM copied to the contact list on your phone, so the messages are saved in a way that doesn't cause this issue.
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.
I put Windows Phone 7 on my HD2 last week, and I swear while I was setting it all up there was an option to show or not show SIM messages when looking in Messaging.
However now I am using the phone regularly I can't find it any more! Every time I reboot the phone, the SIM messages are loaded higher up the list than my actual text messages which is really frustrating because it makes it hard to see my current conversations.
Does anyone know where the setting to stop it showing SIM messages is?
Thanks!

Try deleting one of them, and if it is not deleted from the sim, the check box might appear again on next reboot. Else delete what you don't need
Interesting that you can import messages from sim but not save to sim, how many messages are there?
i think what you've seen whilst setting up the phone was the message "import sim contacts now" and not sim sms... there's no setting about that in wp7 afaik
I think there are about 20 or so SIM messages. I deleted one and it went away, but didn't give me any more options to delete any others and the rest of the SIM messages are still there.
Obviously I could just delete them all but I find it annoying there is not the option to just hide them from the messaging view or something.
