What proves that you lie? The next:
1) thread was created on June 28 and even was in search results 1 or 2 times for me or even on one tech website, but it is 6 MONTHS AGO, no EFFECT was then and during this period! FOLKS! 6MONTHS you keep your silence waiting? and now are yelling like sheeps?
2) all complaints appeared in OLD THREAD simultaneously on December 31, but you say that it was for a long time;
3) you name your devices every time without any detailes, the name of Device alone says nothing for bug fixing; this is ordered by your owner, TROLLS, to name all Android devices here to demonstrate the scale of your 'problem'; this addresses your claims to usual consumers, buyers, not to developers; you just need an attention of consumers, which buy devices, not developers who should find your INVENTED bug in REINVENTED thread;
4) you post here almost identical useless 3-4 words messages. DO YOU KNOW THAT THIS IS a developer's forum? detailes? logs? screens? descriptions? or you don't have a good another place from where you could scream?
5) you use the same words in all 3 places where ****storm should been created to make a feeling that these words are so obvious, but they are written down in your file on computer.
6) bugs are usually a result of updating or installing or some intrusions, you don't connect your complaints with any of your actions with Android OS or OS's changes on your devices.
7) nobody here don't try to really find a solution for 'his problem', because you just need a ****STORM, yelling, scandal; it says a lot about true your goals here;
8) those 2 resources from whose you came here are perfect for starting ****storms. theey are big and different to target different users- one is more glamorous and another one is more geeky;
9) you use term 'switch' and competitor's phones. Folks who experience a problem will not start their messages from the words 'I think about breaking my contract' or 'I'm switching'. You talk to customers/ buyers, saying this, NOT DEVELOPERS;
10) the idea for ****storm was found excellent, must agree: SMS is a basic feature as dropped calls during an important call, everyone sends millions of messages every day, half of them are so sexual and zesty that will cause firing and misunderstanding everywhere, even EMBARASSMENT!;
11) old retired idea about Google's privacy concerns is a very good sauce for such stories;
12) a slap into the face of openness- 'Look, Google, what we can do with your openness and your Open Handset Alliance!';
13) exactly before CES 2011;
14) tremendous growth of Android that needs ****storm to be able to compete better and to shine brighter;
15) just to create a proof for the words that you repeat on the internet as zombies about Android.
16) this thread was old,but once established and almost forgotten due to its uselessness, it just needed reinvention on December 31; this fact gave to this thread so bad-needed maturity to show that nothing is fixed from the 1st report; which also help push the theme 'Google doesn't care'.
17) if this bug was existing you wouldn't act as you act now

I don't agree with everything he says but the bolded are good points. [I don't think the guy speaks English]
Not saying that the issue shouldn't be resolved as fast as possible..
Just kinda funny that, as he points out, if it's such a "serious issue" why was it barely-if ever- talked about until RIGHT before CES?
Also kinda funny that every time this bug happens...the text is of a sensitive nature....
I call BS on that.
As I have said before, Engadget is a lot like "sexy action news" with their "the world is ending" article titles.
This issue, while it does need to be fixed, is not as serious nor is it as excessively occurring as claimed.
If so, then it would have been reported more often in the last six months than ONCE.

It's simple: A lot of people don't get to use the AOSP message app - how many stock Android phones are there? But if you go on AOSP ROM threads you'll get see SMS complaints pop up occasional. I guess it's a story because it still hasn't been fixed after all this time plus a HUGE stock phone just dropped - the Nexus S. Reviewers have taken notice.

The "claim" by Engadget is that it is an issue in coding of Android and "will occur no matter what SMS program is used" [which is complete and utter bull****]
It DOES need to be fixed but the timing and "end all" nature of Engadget article screams attention whoring.

not sure if this is the same bug but me and my brother who both have had evo's since the launch had a problem with clicking on a conversation, starting to write a text and notice that we were actually sending it to a complete wrong person. It was few months ago, i actually sent few msgs to wrong people before i caught on.

That seems to implicate that it is not SMS app specific.
But as I said, others have read this and made the claim.
This has happened to me numerous times on stock, custom sense, and MIUI ROMs. I'll send a text to someone, and both they and a random person that was already in my texting list (someone that I have texted before) will get the text. It has happened on all 3 of my EVOs. Also, sometimes when I click on a thread it takes me to a completely different thread. I have almost sent a text to the wrong person because of this many times.
I think I understand this. It has something to do with the way Android handles the "back" hard/softkey function. It's missremembering which tile is where in the stack. It seems to happen when the "stack" or remembered tiles is too large. Try spamming the back button sometime. Occasionally it will do some interesting things.
Fix may be as simple as a small routine that scrubs whatever cache is responsible for this behavior.

Guys, I don't question that this happens.
I know it does because it's happened to me.
Once or twice...
I DO question how it suddenly "happens all the time" and only when its a "sensitive message". I call complete BS on both issues.

No, say you open up your message app and click on the thread you have going with John, it will instead open the thread you have with Jane. So if youre not paying attention youll text the wrong person.

Oh I sees..... I had a sms problem in my hero where i would click my wifes thread, then type, then realize it went to some one else and merged the whole thing together...
The reason it was doing it was... Sms email text alerts from my bank of america.. The @.... Email text
Only fix was factory reset...until the next message came in... I fixed it by turning the bank alerts off...

Not gonna lie, pretty hilarious things have happened to me because of this bug. I either send lots of awful text messages, or my phone is trying to mess with me.
One time I accidentally sent an old school friend a text meant for my girlfriend that was pretty mushy. Woke up to a text back going.. "..um wut".
The second time was more terrible; some less-than-politically correct stereotypes questions meant for a close friend that ended up sent to a (thankfully trustworthy but still awkward) co-worker. :B
I only noticed after sending the text (and sending it IN THE THREAD for the person it was meant for) and then being redirected back to my list of conversation threads only to find that the completely incorrect contact was now at the top of my list and was in fact the newly chosen recipient for my text message.

Well I had a dash and I kinda miss it. I could stream video from anywhere on skyfire so I could watch anime and shows. I could watch ANY video file on TCPMP, and had Mobile Office etc etc etc. Since there are a million WM phones the programs that were availible were enormous but Android is pickin up steam and many companies are plannin on using the OS which means more and more apps
Best thing you can do is go the link already posted and get some info

I'm, surprised he came from the dash and not the sidekick - if you ever want to fear for the future of our species, check out the danger forums. If you can find three posts on it that have complete sentences and/or all words spelled properly, you've count at least one of them twice. It's ridiculous.
Since I am not smart enough to make fun of his grammar, I'd like to address his problem. OP needs to realize that WM has been out for years (and hasn't changed much in that time, I've had an ipaq 1945, MDA, Dash, Tilt). G1 just got paid apps when, 6 months ago? When Android is around for a few more years, then no matter what you are looking for, there will be "an app for that".
I have also had a Dash in the past. It was a rock solid phone and I loved it. Give the Android OS more time to develop. WM has been around for many years.

2 things...first, you misspelled ****** (lol). Second, I moved over to the g1 after having a Dash. I loved my dash, took it on deployment with me, had it for almost 2 years, but after using the g1 I can safely say that I am not going back. Learning the G1 took next to no time, but just going back to the Dash for a little bit (my wife uses it now) it seems like there is a learning curve (and it was my primary phone for 2 years). I know the thoughts going through your head and the questions. I've been there. Ultimately the only thing that I can say is try it. That is exactly why there is the 2 week return policy. Play with the G1 and if you don't like it return it, get your money back and go back to your dash while you wait for the Dash 3G to come out.

Actually, there are a large number of mistakes in your "sentence." First, as pointed out, you spelled "******" wrong. Second, when referring to yourself, "I" is capitalized. The method in which you used "it's" would require the apostrophe. Third, "alot" isn't even a word. It is actually two words "a lot." I won't even begin to go into the grammatical errors in the use of "it's just I text a lot" as I don't think you would be capable of understanding that.
I'm not trying to be a jackass, but when someone resorts to name calling and rude comments because they cannot take a joke, it seems warranted to put the person in their place. What Luca_Dream posted was funny. Why can't you just accept it and say, in net-speak, "LOLZ, you're right. I'm just so used to texting!" In that way you would have shown maturity and good humor without getting the "smack-down" from the community.

Grow up and take your ignorant self back to the Danger forum. I used a Dash for two years and and used a Sidekick for a year and a half. Between texting friends, bright kite and twitter I rack up about 4000 text messages a month - so yes.. it is possible to "text alot" and still manage to put together a sentence with complete words, punctuation and at least 3rd grade level grammar.
At least PRETEND that you respect yourself and maybe others will return the sentiment.
Plus, I don't suck ass. I'll lick it every now and then though.
Just got pointed here as the post some were above was reported,
Lost for words but that could be due to the one of the follwing facts
1) I can't spell
2) Was not aware of nolageek habits or are they "work ethics"
3) Can hardly read as I seem to be laughing to much.
Think some of the above was handled rather nicely in a politicaly incorrect manor maybe.

Im wondering about the HTC messaging app that takes like 10 seconds to load all your texts with a contact if its 20+..also the whole app starts to lag after a while if you have too many messages.
why hasn't htc fixed this still? is there any community fix for it besides using the zenyee cab ?
Because their customer service sucks big ones
htc don't care for customers problems ,they only care for profit
Problem might be with the OS. It's a dying one.
hoss_n2 seriously needs to be banned from this forum... all he does is spew tripe across the board and obviously has no idea what he's doing.
Also - hoss your sig is massive, please reduce it.
Seriously, they need to follow Apples, Palm route, which is only load the last 10-15 messages instead of 100+, makes things MUCH easier on the UI/OS.

in his defence, and if youve had any experience with the customer support youd understand, it's appalling.
you can tell them about an issue which on this forum about 500 people say theyve reported to htc and they have 'escalated' the issue, and when you talk to them they said its the first time theyve heard of the issue.
as soon as they release a phone, they develop 1 or 2 software updates for it and then simply focus their resources on developing and selling a new phone. it's all about profits.

Nope, FACT.
I have over 5000 text messages to my fiancee on my iPhone, IT NEVER lagged or slow down on load up. Why? Because the iPhone ONLY loads the last 40-50 messages and gives you the option to load earlier messages. On my HD2, I have 505 text messages to her and Sense UI loads them ALL at once, it's a complete lag fest and a wait game.

I understand everyones point though, it is annoying.
And we spent allot of money for this phone, little problems like this should have been smoothed over...

"i use wm phoner before you are born" - Doesn't really help your side though does it?
I have twice now had my phone send text messages it said were going to one person to a completely different person. This wasnt like me clicking on the wrong thread in the Messages app. This was opening up a new message and replying to it, whereupon as soon as i pressed send the whole screen loaded a different thread where the reply i thought i had just sent to the original person had gone to this other random one.
This is stock deodexed 2.2.
Yes I have had this happen many many times. It is very annoying and I have learned to double check and check again where my message is going. Not good when they go to the wrong places. I am on Damage 3.5

This has happened to me a lot, and I've had 3 different evo's due to other issues, so its definetly not hardware related. Mine will do the same thing, I will click on somebody's thread, type the message, hit send, then when it goes back to the main screen, I see it sent to someone else.
Let's just say I have sent some things that I THOUGHT was going to my girlfriend, but instead went to my boss. That made for an awkward conversation the next day.
thought I was going crazy. happened to me once when I was either cm6, or fresh, cant remember.
But I replied to recently received message, and it went to a completely different person. The problem was it was something private, that I didn't want the dude even knowing -.-

I've never had it with Handcent *hint hint!*
I had this happen earlier to me but I just figured I made a mistake, I'll have to watch out for it from now on. It also started giving me an error saying Radio Interface Resource Shortage but when I tried to call someone it did something that cleared it up.
This just started happening to me recently too. Seems to happen most when trying to do to much too fast. For example, type a message, hit send. Then hit back before the message sends and trying to open a new one real quick. It pretty much happens like clockwork.
This is with handcent on cm6. All in all its a minor inconvenience.
This happens to me at least once per week. As a former BlackBerry Tour owner, I was already used to this sort of bug!
Been using Google voice (not religiously due to family not the most tech savvy). This morning, I wake up, and I find a total of 8 messages from starting from 10:30 at night, to 07:59 this AM. There are a total of 3 reply backs, all having personal information attached to them).
Researching the number back shows an area code of 734 (Ann Arbor), which is ironically the prefix I chose since I previously worked there at U of M.
The really interesting part is that I have a bit of a "stalker" at work, whose number I've blacklisted courtesy of Verizon wireless, and have not had any issues in say 1.5 months. 2 nights ago while at work she asked about setting up a google voice account after just purchasing a Samsung S, stating "I don't have any clue how to set this up". Was a bit busy at the time (patient going bad, honestly didn't really care", and opened up the app and told her to browse through it to get an idea.
How can I track this number (really think it's her) and verify it. I have a harassment case pending in HR regarding her, and would like to have it as material to provide it it really is her. Second, how the hell can my phone respond back? I have "Unknown sources" checked as I use Ti backup.
Any help more than appreciated. Thanks in advance!
LOL Holy christ no. One of the "you can take the girl from the trailer...." She's done this before to others at work, with the last moving to Canada (I **** you not) with his wife and 2 daughters. Been getting worse, hence my interaction with my manager and HR.
google voice also can use your email to reply back to texts..is your email compromised? Change your passwords..and do a hard reset..if you are using TI..just wipe and reinstall ROM...
It's hard to say what/if she did something...but yeah, thats weird.
edit: I live in Ann Arbor, but I wasn't the one...haha.
pretend how u have this treasure in nigeria, and ask her to "help" you bring it here.
Christ, I never thought of that, and I do have that option checked.
Sigh... I just did a complete backup 8 days ago, only difference is 2 games, and I can re-download those.
Google voice already uninstalled. After that I'm going to get number changed, and see if I can get it "unlisted" by Verizon.
What else, any other suggestions are more than welcome and appreciated!
Added question.

Somali pirates would probably ship her back, and the waters over there are dirty enough. No need to have Green Peace involved.... or maybe so... thoughts to ponder

do a reverse number lookup and google voice numbers are listed as grandcentral in their service provider. that will tell u at the very least that its a GV number.
Well, after logging into Google voice, somehow her number (which is and has been blocked by Verizon) is listed as a secondary phone, receive text messages on this phone has been checked, PIN not required checked, and never ring. Multiple sign-in is enabled as well.
Just outstanding. Changed email to some bs address. Will verify and forget, as has password to something ridiculous. Any other suggestions?

Document everything that has happened, as thoroughly as possible. Get whatever confirmation you can from Google that shows that your account was somehow compromised.
This chica sounds like she is serious business and doesn't mind playing these games long term. If she compromised your communications you can be sure that it was not just some isolated fun. She most likely mined your account for whatever info she could, and it's possible that she sent things 'on your behalf' that she can later use to accuse you of something.
Change all of your passwords immediately: banking, paypal, email, etc. If she was able to compromise one, it's likely she got into another.
It sounds like worrying about Google Voice or your phone is the least of your concerns: the symptom rather than the disease.
Seriously consider retaining a lawyer for whatever may come of all this insanity.
Maybe it sounds like I'm overreacting but I've seen the havoc that can come from such a situation and from your description, this sounds like it could go all sorts of awful ways.
I dunno... I think you like her.
i think you should talk to the police about this... not XDA... or maybe springer... he always gets the truth out

I suspect there is more to this story.
Was she any good?

OK wait one second here... a woman is "stalking" you and you are having issues with this?? Are you another woman? You can't be a guy because it is impossible to 1. rape a guy and 2. stalk a guy.
This is so much BS. if you were really bothered by this person why do you talk to her? why do you bother with her? I think you are her stalker, thats more believable.
I have been stalked by a chick. Its creepy. You get stalked when they're fat and scary looking. So it is possible.
Didn't know that they controlled how fast you post on here if your a new user. That is insane. But understandable.

Aside from just simply changing your passwords, change your security questions to the accounts as well.
Document everything and hand it over to HR
There's also an option to change your google voice number, if you dont mind choosing a new one.
Somewhere in the settings on the desktop site.
Well I just got off the phone with sprint after asking them about froyo the guy started reading that bs script so half way through the guy reading the script I stopped him and said can you get me some real info please. Ok sir just one moment so after about 2 mins he came back and said froyo is schedule to be released feb 1st. I wouldn't even consider this a rumor or anything that should be believed. I wanted to share how a sprint rep shuts down when the script no longer flys

I think that even with all the (supposed) improvements in Sprint CS, it is absolutely pointless to ask any of them anything speculative or deeply technical. The experts are all right here and on "the googel." Leave the poor sops alone--you need a bill adjustment or credit, call them. You need expertise, come here. ^_^
Yeah if I have I a tech question I don't even call sprint tech anymore I just jump on here. But that script reading is funny ****. Half of the reps have rom read it cause they don't even know what group is.

first level CS not knowing, giving BS, I dont blame em. I always throw out the froyo question if I am calling anyways, just for this amusement... the first level people know less than the sales people at a sprint store. The BEST ones, MAYBE, are the ones who ask their supe, and its not a 2 min hold, its just a few seconds, and they come back and say they dont know, sorry. Now the tech support lady I was transferred to, who obviously had NO tech experience (supposedly second tier) did not know what 2.1 or 2.2 meant, so I said Froyo, then it was like a red flag, oh let me get my supe, I said no, I was more concerned with the replacement Epic I had just waited 5 days for that FC'd everything... system apps, everything. Its like their 'tech support' are there just to annoy you into driving to the sprint store so a tech can look at it in person. ONE guy was cool enough to set me up an appointment, and describe in the job ticket what they were to do, as they said my effed up display was cosmetic when I went in to the 'techs' previously. Anyways, never had to deal with them till I got an Epic... so I dont know if it changed. Dont get me wrong, my screen issue was either defect or a damaged connection cable, otherwise epic is solid.
Now the 'finance' department going to a comission basis, or at least acting like it, is bull****. I got two lines because I had a second job where I had to call in orders to landlines, taking hours at a time (Frontier FIOS), then left the job and had issues with payments on two lines for just myself (nobody told me of seasonal hold on a line) and had to deal with finance. In the past, say 2 years ago and longer, they were AWESOME, they would work out any reasonable deal...but im guessing with the economy, they are pusing them to have all these stupid stipulations, etc. I know its my fault I am behind, I signed a contract, but in the past they were SO willing to do anything to keep my account, it was awesome. Also, anyone get a disconnect lately? No more handy redirect to customer service/finance... now its just a 1970s phone company voice saying you are not authorized to make a call to this number, please try again later... cheaped out on that system too....
BUT, still cheapest carrier, and better CS all around than VZ, any division...

I've worked in call centers for quite a while and it's not the fault of the agents when management defines a script for them and doesn't give them anything else to work with. Understand when you work in a job like that, everything you say is recorded and if you deviate from the script and start throwing your opinion out there you risk your job.
I'm fortunate that now, while I'm still on the phone, I provide tech support to the gov so generally I get a lot more leeway than I did in previous jobs. But there still are pre-written scripts I have to rattle off in certain circumstances, and usually to very important people. Ironically, they almost never give me a hard time because unlike the whiny residential customers at a previous job, these people actually understand that we have procedures and policies to follow for the sake of legality / security / confidentiality / modus operandi.
In short, I'm glad I don't have to talk to people like you anymore!

While the agent shouldn't have made up a date (I'm our team's trainer and that's one of the first things I teach our people, "don't BS, you'll get caught"), if you pressure someone for something they don't have, you get what you deserve.

Hehe well starting a sentence with "Look, Sir" and ending with "I don't have a clue" is a great way to turn a frustrated caller into an irate one.
But yeah, "I wish I could answer that question but we haven't been provided with a release date yet. We've been told that the update is in the works and should be released in the near future. Do you have any other questions I might be able to help with?"
It sounds lame but if you sympathize too much with a caller, they suddenly want to spend 20 minutes telling you their life story (time you generally aren't allowed to spend chit-chatting). If you are too cold and uncaring, they get ticked off. So you're stuck basically with "Yeah I feel for you, but here's what I can do for you / tell you. Do you need anything else?"

Would that have changed your opinion or would it have been another "confirmation that Sprint doesn't know what they're doing"? In looking at the overabundance of posts on Froyo I"m guessing that a post would have developed stating something like " Just called tech support. Asked them about Froyo. Customer service doesn't know what the hell they are doing cuz they couldn't answer my question... I'm switching to Verizon because I'm tired of the lack of support that Sprint/Samsung/America(since international Galaxy devices have froyo) provides." Sound bout right?
Now I understand why so many Devs are starting to jump ship from the site.
/end pointless rant.
Sorry didn't mean to come off as an ass but I can say and truly mean, unless you walk a mile in their shoes... Try dealing with so many people on a daily basis asking the same damn questions. It gets a bit repetative and annoying I'd say pretty much anything to get people to shut up. Especially once they start with the I know more than you tone.
No im very patiently waiting for froyo please don't get me wrong...im very happy with my setup but you guys have explained it better from thier point of view thank you and obviously understand how it works better than a sixteen year old(Me 8/) so thanks i wasn't angry about sprint/samsung just that the guy lied thought he couldv'e said something else but w/e i undertand.
and im not a person who is always on here *****ing/moaning i try to help anyone out if i can and answer questions so hopefully our Amazing devs have more time to focus on thier hobbies and not answer questions.
Not everyone that works for sprint cs is stupid.... I agree not all reps are the best but love the way u guys treat us... bullshiz

I for one don't really worry about froyo, my phone is stock and I like it the way it is. I think that this fasination with it has gone wayyy overboard.
The way I see it is that we will get it when they release it, until then just enjoy using the best phone on the market

ill go ahead and look stupid here... what does froyo give you?
Flash, JIT, Chrome to phone, not being on extremely dated software

Plus a number of other Google apps like Voice Search, updates to Gmail and Youtube, and features like voice dialing over Bluetooth, improved memory management, installing apps to the SD card, data backup APIs, error reporting, improved Exchange support/security....I think that's almost everything.

And the ability to use new TTS voice engines. My Epic sounds sexy now.
