Is there a way to have the new text messages move to to top on the list of text messages instead of scrolling threw all of the messages and looking for the ones with dots next to them
that is actually a Froyo 2.2 issue on the x after the move to froyo "supposedly" an OTA fix update is on its way out soon to adress the issues the X has after the 2.2 OTA update
only way i've found around it (until its fixed by moto) is to use a diff sms app. I use handcent and set the recieved message offset to -4.
I used to use Handcent, but there's so much overhead for that app that it runs so slow. I used it for months...then one day accidentally opened my native text app to find it was blazing fast! Never used Handcent again...

My stock messaging app stutters visually, and takes a good grip before it does anything. Handcent has never given me an issue.

When did this happen? Handcent use to be HORRIBLY slow for my X but in the last 2 months all the updates have made it alot faster.

I installed CM6 (Android 2.2) on my Hero today, and now I have a contact image at every message wich is really annoying since it just takes up a lot of space on my small display.
Is there any way to hide them?

I don't believe there is a way of hiding these images in the default messaging app, you could always try using another message app such as handcent as they tend to have more options.

Glad I am not the only one, so fare I tried to disable incoming text notifications and then reboot. After reboot I enabled them again. changed nothing. Thing is I find the problem to be totally random. Dose it sometimes and its not for the same contacts.

I have had the same thing with the notifications, but along with it I am not getting notifications for half of my texts, I only notice I have some of them my manually looking into the messages app.
Tried rebooting, changing the notification settings etc and nothing works!

Have the same problem. Exactly every second SMS does not have any notification! Sometimes it vibrates, but there is no notification in the statusbar...so I have to open the SMS-App.
Now I will miss every important SMS and I have to check all 10-20min to be sure -.-
Hope there will be a fix!
Got the same bug. This is a major bug, and htc have to relese a bugfix asap! This bug makes the phone useless. Can't thrust the phone anymore...

I guess im really lucky. I updated and have had no problems whatsoever. Not even that 100% CPU bug. I couldnt be happier. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that i followed hamdir's guide to install the update and keep root and s-off.

The sms-bug isn't there all the time. I've only got two txtmsg that didn't trigger the alert. And I got a lot of txtmsgs. But the two that didn't trigger the txtmsg receive notification was two important txtmsg, so I no longer can trust my phone.
I do not have the 100 cpu load issue. So it has nothing to do with that. My battery is just as good as I think a battery should be on a phone in this class. The only thing that really drains my battery is the Angry Bird Seasons. But I'm addicted, so I keep on playing

Same here, its completely random which messages it happens with and it is not the same people that trigger it too. So far I have seen no pattern to the messages with, for example it is not every fourth message etc, they happen at random intervals and the only time I know there is one is when I actually open the inbox.
This needs fixing asap!
Just like to say 1. I have a dhd sim free on official Rom. 2. With regards my notification problem the best way to save you having to clear the notification bar after you read the text is it to access your text via notifications bar in the first place.

looks like i spoke too soon.. someone sent me a sms and i hadn't seen it cause the phone didnt notify me. Only when i went into the messages app it showed :/
edit: and now im getting the notification stuck in the bar at the top HTC need to get on this.
its a very random issue. started happening to me after i deleted my HTC sense account (and then reinstalled it) after doing the OTA update to deal with the 100% CPU issue
Can confirm that trying a different messaging app from the market will fix both problems. The one with stuck notification in the bar and the one where you don't get a notification. Just make sure to disable notifications in the stock app.
Ty! I'll try that out later.

Had this happen quite a few times.....sometimes when I click on the messaging app it opens up a random app that I have open in the background.....can't seem to fix it...occured on both launcher pro and adx or w/e the other launcher app is called....any solution?
This has been reported before. I remeber once, someone had set a swipe function accidentaly on their messaging app shortcut in the dock, and that was the culprit. I also remember this happening to people on touchwiz launcher, but it's never happened to me. If the swipe thing isnt the problem, the I would reccomend downloading an app such as Handcent sms, go sms, or chomp sms. Hope something in this post helps you.

Have you tried restarting? I know it sounds stupid but a lot of weird glitches can be solved by a simple reboot. If that doesn't help a cache/davlik wipe might.
Texted while driving
A restart does fix it....in fact an task manager end all works as well....just kinda annoying. If it happens again ill try a different SMS and see if I have better luck.
Normally this only happened on DI18, I never saw it happened after the 2.2 builds came out.

this is quite annoying, sometimes I have to hit the back hit hundreds of times, backing out of my entire history of the day at times. It happens with other apps too. But messaging is my most used one. I think it is related to holding home, and selecting the text app while in another app.
I've had this issue too... welcome to samdroid, the beautiful world where samsung has changed everything and broke it
Happens to me all the time to. Have to reboot. Only started after 2.2 never on 2.1. Wish someone could look into this as I know nothing about phone software. I did not use the ota to update I did a .exe update so it was clean.

I've experienced inside the messaging app, it'll sometimes open up somebody else's conversation. I believe it's just a glitch or my phone lagged at the time I pressed the screen. Good thing I notice it before I sent unnecessary texts. haha
Was wondering if there are any different txt messaging apps, besides the default?
which also has the ability for attatchments.?
Thanks
I haven't used it myself, but a lot of people swear by Handcent SMS.
GOsms is what i use pretty nice
I have tried handsent not too bad but too much "bubbles" for me.
Are there any txt messaging apps that don't screwup the order in which messages are sent? What I mean by that is this:
When I send a txt to someone saying "hi, how are you" at 9:40am and I receive a reply a few seconds later, it shows up before my original message. Because both timestamps are at 9:40am, it displays them in alphabetical order (which is wrong)...
Allie - 9:40am - "good, u?"
Rob - 9:40am - "hi, how are you?"
I use Handcent SMS and I'm happy with it. No issues with the time stamps being out of order. You can customize the appearance, too.
How do u get rid of the bubble messages and have just a normal "list" type.
Settings - custom style - bubble settings - conversation style
Switch it to android.

I use handcent. It's pretty good. One thing that bugs me about handcent is that everytime I flash between different roms. I can never restore it. I've used tianium and astro and it would force close. What works for the best recovery when using handcent? For those of you who are using hc. Sorry, little of topic.
I've never had a problem between ROMS. Are you doing a full reset between? I just wipe the cache.

GoSms is what I recommend. I use the pro version, which is free in the market. Visually it looks like hanscent, But has more features. You can tailor it to performance or set it up with all the features/settings you want.

Go SMS is the best! They update a lot, too! Plus lots of personalization!

I use GoSMS Pro as my default SMS app. Works great, looks great, is great.
Except for one issue:
People are receiving my messages twice.
I use the Quick Reply function very, very often (and I know that most people have this issue solely while using this feature.)
Does anyone have a fix? I'd like to continue using the app and the Quick Reply feature, but it's a little embarrassing to have people receive my messages twice.
Thank you.
You need to uninstall the stock messaging app using titanium backup text messaging is the name of the apk. Then uninstall Go SMS Pro, and reinstall it. Done
Won't that get in the way of future updates?
Can I freeze the stock messaging app instead?
Sorry, new to android here lol.
try it and see what happens (freezing) worst case you defrost it.

Don't uninstall the stock app as it may prevent you updating in future. Freeze instead so you can thaw when a new update comes out.
I think the latest update said they fixed that issue. Are you running the latest one?
mine works fine

I had the same issue (GingerBlur 3.1) got to the point where I had to just go back to stock. Though handcent worked quite well.

I can't say I'm a big fan of handcent, and I am running the newest version.
The people who complain about this problem are saying that it's a hit or miss. Sometimes they come in twice (but often, multiple times a day), and sometimes they don't.
It's gotta be a problem with the popup window.
