Random WinMo bug. Has been for years.

That's another reason why winmo sucks
That used to happen to me with emails

i have it too now, when does it go away?

Try removing your SIM card from your phone and putting it in another phone that is compatible with your cell service. See if you can remove the message that way. Then put your SIM card back in your original phone, and see if the notification goes away.

I never have this on stock, but happened to me in custom ROMs. it's random, and in my setting, it only happened when going back to WinMo from Android.
if you've deleted all messages and you still get it, there was a registry entry that you could set to have a zero unread messages. Search the registry for either "SMS" and explore for a bit, or try "Unread" it might help. I don't have the phone on me ATM so I'm sorry I can't help any further.

SMS msgs getting wiped after SOFT reset

Only recently got my T-Mobile branded Vario direct from them brand new and I've noticed that after I perform a soft reset all my messages, regardless of whether they have been read or not, get wiped.
I've checked Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Outbox and Sent Items folders and they are all empty! I can absolutely assure you that I did not delete any of the messages myself.
Thinking that I might of had some conflict with another piece of sofware I had installed I decided to perform a hard reset and get everything set back to T-Mobile factory defaults. After all the Extended-Rom branding stuff got installed I decided to leave the phone exactly as it was, no tweaking of any settings, no installing any extra apps, no active-syncing, no nothing - a fresh factory reset!
Then, I sent another text message to the Vario. It arrived and after I read it and confirmed that it was indeed in the Text Message Inbox folder I quit out of the message app and perform a soft reset. Guess what happened after it restarted? Yep, the text message has miraculously disappeared
Anybody else seen this happen?
Anyone care to comment? Please reply even if your text msgs DON'T get wiped as I'd like to find out whether it's normal or not.
not got a T-mobile ROM, i'm using the O2 one (and now the updated version) and have never lost text messages from a soft reset (only a hard reset)
Sry i cant help further
just started happening to me and i been using the 2.17 rom.. i noticed this yesterday it deleted like 5 msgs but i got my other ones there so i was like WTFD?
I've just had this on a Universal (Orange M5000) with the latest Orange ROMs.
Prior to this, I suddenly had days and days of delivery notifications come flooding in, although this may have been an issue with either Orange or another network provider.
hi for me its not the txt messages but all new files that is created on the sd card gets deleted an all deleted files reappears after a soft reset
m really bugged
if ne 1 knows whats the problem pls help me
thanks
Loosing SMs messages.
If you have received a SMS message and soft reset before closing POutlook then I have found that you do loose the message.
By closing, I mean really closing it - not just pucsing the X button.
Likewise if you have deleted a message or moved it then the message(s) come back.
It seems to be that POutlook doesn't commit the changes to it's database until you close the app - or switch accounts.

That certainly seems to be the case with me, I was having trouble syncing with activesync, just dying each time I tried so in the end I hit the soft reset, I'm fairly certain that I still had outlook running at that point.
Actually, thinking about it, there were two batches of sms msgs, and I did end task on outlook after the first, so I can maybe understand that the second lot could be lost, but not the first?
Is there any way of validating the system databases?
The problem that I was having, disappearing SMS msgs, seems to have gone away and everything is still intact now even after multiple soft resets.
In case anyone else gets this strange behaviour, I can indeed confirm that POutlook.exe was indeed closed as I had also double checked the running programs list * to ensure no other processes were open that could conflict.
( * Start -> Settings -> System -> Memory ->Running Programs )
bbut also make sure tmail.exe is closed to.. get memmaid ull be suprised at all whats running.. the best thing to do is to use SmartSKey and make that close ur txt message app completelty!
poutlook.exe tmail.exe and sMSNserver.exe/pMSNserver.exe ...if these are open chances are ur sms/mms may be wiped after a soft-reset i make sure to sync my phone to pc and use jeyo outlook companion b4 a soft-reset

Windows Mobile SMS Problem

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this so move the topic if necessary.
A few weeks back I bought an X1(Branded Dutch T-Mobile Version) and I've been having problems with the receiving of SMS'. My Today screen indicates there are new messages, eg. SMS \ MMS: 1 unread. But when I check my messages there's nothing there. I tried to see if it may be a false positive, by having a friend send me a text message, but the number did increase, and the message box was still empty. I tried reseting the rom, which obviously killed the messages, but new messages are still not getting through.
Anybody else experiencing the same problem? Anybody know what is going on? How can I recover the (invisible) messags?
Thanks a bunch
that's weird. uh, really weird. it's either YOU have a bad rom/phone software so better have it checked OR your not looking in your SMS/MMS inbox but your outlook inbox instead.

i had the same prob, someone sent me a text and the phone froze, when i turned it on had that message. the only way i found to get rid of it was to delete the message coversation with the person.
i had the same problem, only a hard reset solves the problem. after the hardreset everythink worked fine. some other people at the german xperia board got the same problem.
I tried to hard-reset to no avail. Deleting previous conversations doesn't help. Even SMS' from unknown contacts stay hidden. When I try to export my messages using PIM Backup 2.8 It shows that I have 2 'Text Messages' folders in the export root. One with the hidden(unread) messages. And one with the visible ones. When I exported the messages and reimported them, they stayed hidden. When I wrote a program to parse the PIM Backup exported file. I could see that the hidden messages get properly exported.
Any ideas?
Hearing that the German based roms have troubles too, could it be a reg setting that is wrong, something with localization? I really hate that I have a Dutch rom.
i had this problem i simply hard reset it and it was gone...if this didnt work then try reflashing the orignal rom
I just ran into the same issue.
Funny is that I did hard reset on not flashed orginall Dutch T-mobile X1 which was working good. Well now it is not :/
Tip for others looking for a quick workaround: use uiggmo light panell to read them. The only way I found so far.
I am flashing mine today. (Before I will hand it over due to case issue).

[Q] SMS BUG, how to delete sms from sim?

hi all,
i have a very strange sms bug.
every time i get a new sms text message i get 2 messages in my inbox.
1. i get the actual message that was just send to me.
2. i get another message that is stored on my sim ( if i look in my inbox, there is a SIM icon in front of the message).
This 2nd message also shows up at first in TF3D and is on top of my list in my inbox. very annoying !!
the strange thing is that the 2nd sms is a message that i once sended to a friend of mine, somehow that message is stored somewhere on my SIM and comes in my inbox everytime a get a new message.
i tried a few things, but they didn't help:
- delete it from my inbox and then from removed items; keeps coming back.
- choose "Inmediatly" by "clear removed items" in the message options menu; still the message is coming back.
the message must be stored on the sim, because that message was send from my old phone. and the only thing my old phone and my blackstone have in common is the same simcard.
so i need to know how i can delete this SMS text message from my sim card, at least i think that will solve the problem..
hope someone can tell me how, because its very annoying to delete this message over and over again because it always shows first.
I'm going to bump this thread up because I have the same issue/question.
little kick up..
Same issue here, bumping..
had the same thing when i got my HD a few months ago, after deleting such messages a hundred times they suddenly where gone... :-\
maybe you have another phone around to check if you can delete old messages stored on your sim?
greetz
Same problem here...
same here... any sim guru around?....
i got the same problem since i have my htc, the only thing that realy worked for me is this
efficasoft.com/mobileexpress/index.html (Efficasoft Mobile Express)
its a software, that can save your sms on your pc, and directly delete it from your sim
.. but sometimes my htc gets stuck, and i have to reset it, but yeah its an easy way to save & delete all sms
you could also try ms myphone in combination with pimbackup. afaik myphone only syncs sms on the phone itself, but with pimbackup you can use the delete all feature, maybe that would wipe the sim as well, then you'd sync with myphone again, and since wiping pim information with pimbackup appears as an unplanned deleting, you will get your regular sms back thru syncing with myphone.
another idea would be: try another phone, a cheap or old one, that only uses sim sms and delete all sms there. if that doesn't help, there is something wrong with your network or sim card
I had the same problem as anyone of you. But after deleting it from my inbox at least 4-5 times, it suddenly disappears.

HELP! Strange Text Messages When Voicemail Left

Hi, everytime someone leaves a voicemail a get a blank text message and the sender is - a an underscore followed by @ (eg [email protected]) then when I have listened to the message and deleted it I get another blank text message where the sender is a triangle followed by @
This is so annoying does anyone know how to switch this off ?
I used to get this on a 6.5 build 23016 version.
Not had any messages left on this official Leo rom yet so don't know if it happens.
Mine does this too, are you on Orange? Another phone of mine did this and I found a reg tweak to fix it, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was!!!???
Install SDKCerts first and then SMS Providers cab and should be good to go.
- CAN CONFIRM THIS DOESNT WORK - TRIED IT ON MY LEO STOCK ROM ORANGE UK. USED TO GET THE @ sms instead of voicemail notification, installed the sms providers cab and now I get no notification at all. I remember this happening to me on my M700 and can't for the life of me remember how I got it fixed.
Hang on a mo - just tried it myself and now getting no notification at all - not even the @
Only time I got this was when I had VVM from my blackberry bold, and went to a HTC phone...once I removed VVM(called ATT)I no longer had this issuse

Hi, I did try this the strange text messages stopped but it seemed to stop any text messages being received.
Same for me - hard reset coming up :-(
Yes- I can confirm that installing this or the Rabdo Orange Customisation cab totally kills any SMS receiving, though the system still thinks the message has been received as the sender gets a 'Delivered' report.
Needs a hard reset to fix
I'm getting this with an unlocked O2 HD2 using an Orange contract sim.
I have tried a hard reset and I still have the problem. I also have the voicemail icon permanently in my notifications even though I have deleted all my voicemails
Anybody got anymore suggestions or a possible fix?
Cheers.
Anybody able to help?
Cheers.
Answer phone issue
Hmm,
I get the same and am on Orange UK. A [email protected] is to tell the phone a new message is waiting, a _Triangle tells the phone either no messages OR minus 1 from the message count.
For the 1st week I had the spool stuck on the phone even when no messages where waiting, so I had to put the simm in another phone, left a message on it and then deleted it. Spool disappeared.
Moved the simm back to the HD2 and hey presto - spool still gone. But now it doesn't come on when I have a message, I just get a [email protected] message.
At least I know I have a VM waiting but its flipping annoying.
I presume the phone interprets these SMSes and is suppose to action them.
I'm SURE I've done a hard reset to no avail.
A HTC bug I fear. Worked OK on my Touch HD.
Anyone got a solution yet? Anyone talked to Orange? The guys I talked to were perplexed.
Grrrrrr
Hi,
To get rid of the spool, leave yourself a message and put the simm in another phone.
Delete the message. Switch the phone off and back on, (wait to boot) then back off again. Then put the simm back in the HD2.
I think you need to reboot the 2nd phone with the simm in after deletion to make sure its gone.
Worked for me.

SMS Droppage

Ive been having a problem with my MT3G for awhile now where it will randomly drop txt messages. It mostly happens when Im already in a chat window, or when Im recieving multiple texts at the same time, but the symptoms are that Ill get the notification, and the preview of the text in the task bar as normal, but when I open the texting app, they arent there. Sometimes if I leave a text marked NEW, it will get erased when the next text from the same contact comes in.
This has started to happen much more frequently to the point where I feel its unusable.
Ive replaced the SIM card, limited my phone to 2G only, and turned off data roaming like was suggested in other threads/ forums, but it still doesnt help. The T Mobile tech support said they could send me a new phone, but I dont want a refurb when this seems like a software issue, not a hardware one.
This issue has presented itself on 1.5 Hero ROMs, 1.6 Cyanogen and Amon_Ra ROMs. I wasnt on the stock ROM long enough to remember this ever happening, and I dont have the problem with my unlocked iPhone.
Ive been through Data Wipes, full reinstalls of all apps, fixed permissions, fixed UID mismatches, removed all non stock messaging apps/ popup notifiers, etc.
Thoughts?
Same problem here
Hellow.
Looks like we have the same problem.
Have you found a sollution?
The problem has occured only a few times.
So it is hard to find wat's causing this
My specs are.
Sms reader: chompSms and Orriginal
Sms notifications: chompSms or Missed Call
