SMS thread starts at the top not most recent after update - Legend General

I've been having a problem with the HTC messages app. Whenever I choose a thread of messages from one of my contacts it starts at the top and I have to scroll down to the bottom to read the newest messages.
I haven't had this problem until I received an update the other day to fix a few bugs. Not sure if it was from HTC or Vodafone. But, ever since this update the problem has been there.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Lots of users have the same problem. For now use Handcent SMS (available free in the market) till HTC fixes the problem.

Same problem here. I think this is a bug in the latest update. I hope HTC has been informed of this and they are working to fix this in the next FROYO update.

Legend SMS Reading Problem

Hi All
I wonder does anyone noticed that when reading sms on my legend. I could not see the latest sms on top. if you have more than 100 sms from one contact you have to scroll down in order to see the newest sms. Any solution for that issue. Please Help me!!
Everyone who updated the phone software recently is having this issue, very annoying...
I switched to handcent messaging... it is a very decent alternative and it shows the last message on top.
Extremely annoying.
I also installed handcent but when ı read the sms the notification remains on the bar.
realized that problem after reading this thread. the problem exist with the default SMS application.. I recently changed to Handcent and it isn't affected by that.. plus Handcent is pretty nice and all
@lifeis, have you disabled the notification option for your default SMS application? you have to do that to let Handcent "take over" the default one
I switched to Chomp. Waiting for 2.2 ........
edit: reply from HTC Taiwan
"With regards to your enquiry, the message sorting order is default by google phones. However, we will forward your request to Google and HTC."
SMS Threads
Anyone else having issues with the SMS threads? Me, and other people around the web have threads that now load from the oldest message (ie from the top) so i now have to scroll all the way down to see any new messages! I called HTC who said software devs are aware of the problem but haven't started working on it yet!! He also told me that 2.2 isn't a definite for the Legend!
everybody is having the same problems regarding the sms bug. try sending an email to htc to voice out your concern and hopefully they can do something asap or we might just get used to it.
He also told me that 2.2 isn't a definite for the Legend! [/QUOTE]
Oh dear lol

I got this reply from HTC Taiwan:
"The official upgrade for Android 2.2 is not confirmed yet. Desire will release the upgrade earlier than Legend. As Europe already releases the 2.2 upgrade, Taiwan is expecting for its own release soon. However, the exact date for Legend is still not set."
I don't have this problem
It's weird because I'm not having this issue.
Software version: 2.05.405.2
It's a vodafone debranded phone, in spanish
VF eforum thread, anyone with a VF branded phone with the fault please report back to VF in the thread below. They don't see to understand its a fault and still just collecting feedback so LET THEM KNOW !

SMS-Threaded-Issue Suggestions
I really like the look of the native SMS app that comes with the phone. However, it misplaces the threaded sms.
HTC support is as sh!tty as it is. I sent them bunch emails, their final answer is "sending in the phone for repair".
Anyways, around April - May 2010, I tried Handcent & ChompSMS. I chose Handcent. The app was good & all, then the updates, then now lots of force-closes. So I switched back to the native app & learned to live with it.
The problem of the native app is that it SLOWS tremendously, especially if you have so many conversations with so many people.
My final solution is the purchase of the Desire (giving the missy my Legend).
With the Desire's Eclair 2.1-update1, the native SMS app STILL suffers from the same problem of the Legend. However, the lag is zero. INSTANTANEOUSLY.. I was VERY CONTENT.
My Desire is recently updated to Froyo 2.2 & it fixes the threaded sms misplace. So, I'm EXTREMELY content now.
So, my recommendation is:
1. Try to live with the native app & wait for Froyo 2.2
2. Try Handcent & ChompSMS & pick your preference.
3. Get the Desire & you'll be as happy as a kid in the candy store.
That's the answer that I got from HTC:
Thank you for contacting us, We apologize for the delay in answering your email, Kindly be informed that currently there is no way to change the sorting of your messages. There may be 3rd party applications that can solve your problem, and you can try searching the market for applications that match your needs. Please note that we are currently analyzing this issue and will determine if this will be addressed in a possible future update. As for the Froyo upgrade, we expect to release updates for several of our 2010 models including Legend and Wildfire during Q3.

All text messages deleted randomly.

Hey guys, I wanted to see if any fellow vibrant uses have been getting this.
This is the second time this has happened to me. Just out of no where I will launch my sms application (handcent) and the all of my texts are gone, like magic....
I have done alot of looking and found out that this is an old problem that is general for any android user. Wanted to see if anyone know the solution to what is causing this.

This just happened to me recently. I also use handcent. I dont know if this is the case for you, but I am a packrat, so I had a lot of messages.
I think the limit of SMS messages that can be stored on the phone is 5,000. The only thing that didnt make any sense is that not ALL of my messages were gone, I had 8 left from a recent conversation. I cant explain why they werent deleted...
We can start narrowing things down though. If you dont think you reached the phones limit, then maybe it is a Handcent bug, or a bug with TouchWiz.
it use to happen to me before when i had i believe was the mytouch slide at that time but i cant recall. and yes it happened when i had over 3000+ for my GF and like around 200 for other people! Now i usually just get to 600 or less and delete it and start over. I use the stock sms app btw and have no problems at all.
It happened to me too, not the first or second time it have always happened from the start. I don't use handcent, everything is untouched with no root.

Hmmm...a few people claim that this stopped after they uninstalled the antivirus app. However, I never used this app so it can't mean that. On top of that, many claim that this was due to 3rd party app. That wouldn't make any sence because if uninstalling different apps will fix it.
A few also mentioned that installing the sms back up also stopped the problem. It was also mentioned that handcent has an update coming that said they would fix it but that was almost a year ago. I couldn't find anything on the handcent website that fixed the issue. A lot of android users have the same issue as us on their forum. There are at least 10+ posts on this topic, non with a solution....

Have you removed the settings to delete old messages when limits are reached?
or have u edited those settings in the messaging app?
That's the first thing I checked
it's unchecked, no limits and no deleting if old text messages. Here's the thing, even if that was enabled, it would only delete after reaching the limit and keep it at that. What happened was that all the text messages just disappeared...

This used to happen to me on the G1 on occasion. I got around the issue by using the CyanogenMod Messaging application and setting the auto-delete limit to 200 messages per person, and using the free SMS Backup application to export all SMS messages to a label Gmail as they're received. I'm still using the same solution on the Vibrant, and I've had no problems since.
I didn't think that cyanogenmod is available for the samsung vibrant yet...or am i missing something?

The CyanogenMod 5 (Android 2.1) Messaging app can be installed over the Vibrant's Messaging app just fine. Download a CM5.0.8 ROM for the Nexus One and install the Messaging.APK found in \system\data. :]
I'll give it a shot and see how it goes.

[Q] Text Message Timestamp Issue?

Am I the only one getting this timestamp issue? I did a search and nothing popped up so I thought I'd make a thread and see if anyone else is having this problem.
All the texts I receive are always above own texts cause the timestamp is out of wack.
Also,
I'm using the stock Bell stuff for now, I got root and S-OFF, just waiting to debrand and flash the other rom.
So are you getting the timestamp issue?
yes but SMS Time Fix from the market fixes it easily...
Not really. Im going to download handcent to fix the other timestamp issues that sms time cant fix

Nope, no issues. But message app likes to scroll when I'm writing sms, the only thing that bothers. Also, sometimes nofitications show when I already read a message

I had both of these issues when I was running the Stock Sense ROM on my Desire Z. Since rooting and flashing CyanogenMod ROM, the problems have been fixed. I have also noticed that the messaging app is much faster in Cyanogen.

facebook 1.5 chat notification

Does anyone know how to get push notifications to work on HTC Desire HD. I am using 2.2 and ticked all notifications in settings. I dont get any sound or vibration when I get a new chat message!!!
There are no push notifications on Facebook... Only check by intervall... But I can be wrong !
even i check all the settings but after i log out and log back in the settingd are back to default.
@OP
The Push Messages has been enabled in the latest version of Facebook available for download from Market. the Stock version of facebook doesn't support Push Notification. Guess this update cam out 3 days back.

@OP:
Didn't notice that you are already on 1.5. I didnt have to change a thing...installed and the Push Notification started working almost immediately.
Thanks

mine works all the time as well. i find it irritating so i might turn it off. latest version of facebook
It works intermittently on mine, hope they sort this out.
Also, does anyone else have the problem with the contact pictures/thumbnails disappearing? It's driving me crazy! I'm running the stock HTC ROM.

The new chat notification is the most irritating **** i've ever encountered. One notification is fine. 80 notifications after 3 minutes? No thanks! I deleted the update after a couple of hours.
Yes, i disabled the notifications in the settings, but that didn't help. God i hate it!
I'm getting the push notifications when someone commented on a post or replied to a post. It doesn't work for comments on videos though.

sms texts always in new threads sent and received

hey
i have a wierd problem with texts
every message i receive goes into its own thread instead of updating the current persons text thread..
i just changed rom's so backed up my sms's with sms backup and restore. , after restoring i noticed that all my sent messeges and received messages to people there in 2 different threads for each person one thread for sent one for received....
so i thought it might have been a dodgy backup... so i viewed the backup but everything looks ok nothing is split into 2 threads .... each person has 1 thread
so i thought it might be the sms backup not being compaitable with my new rom (dragon j/b 1.7) so i deleted my sms's ALL of them and started from scratch....
but again i just received a text from a friend i replied to that and when he replied again it went into a new thread......
anyone help?
checked my contacts they are all linked (ie, facebook....google.... accounts into one contact file)
anyone? can't seem to find info anywhere

I had the same issue with Dragon 1.6 when I installed with AOSP SMS. Reinstalled the ROM, this time with stock MMS AND the issue was resolved.
