[Q] [Help] SMS conversations showing up in different 2 threads - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm currently on TDJ's MIUI (and have been for a while), and for many builds, some of my SMS conversations have been split into two, one for the messages I send and one for the ones I receive. This only happens with certain contacts (and I've checked to make sure they only have one assigned number), deleting the threads doesn't help, nor does deleting the contact. Any ideas?

It might be because you're sync with their fb or google + account that has their number and you're sending to either. but their replies are coming from your "phone" profile of them or under your google contacts.

Yea, Idk what that's about... was happening to me on the last two miui releases. The contacts it was occurring with don't have anything to sync with (ie: no social networking, just regular cell phones)... I'm on cm7 now, though...

Got the same issue ... Hopefully in a later build this will be fixed. This happens worth all my contacts. It's no biggy tho compared to other quirks on certain roms

Lost all facebook contacts

So something happened today after a power cycle, i lost all my facebook contacts under my contact page. In the end its not that big of a deal becuase i believe i backed them all up to google... I did however enjoy the ability to use the updates tab under everyones name before calling them so i was up to date. I also liked having the up to date pics of them via facebook. So i double checked and made sure facebook was still syncing everything under the contacts, and it was. However everyones facebooks contact is just outright gone now. Not just missing pictures or not displaying updates... gone.
I cant seem to find a way to reenable this. Any ideas?

I was showing my cousin (iphone user) how cool that was but it was missing.

This happened to me also. Resynchronizing them doesn't seem to do anything. It sucks. I thought that I could go into Groups under contacts and add them all again, but there isn't any option to add contacts to the preexisting groups. That's actually the only part of TouchWiz that's really pissed me off so far. It would be great if someone could figure out how to fix this.
Do you think the update to Facebook caused this?

See at first i thought it might have had something to do with the facebook update. but i had not updated my facebook at the time. I hage since then thinkinkijg it would fix the problem, but it has not helped at all.
Contacts are still MIA for me at this point. Anyone got ideas?

Lost all Facebook contacts? That sounds more like a feature than a bug

Yep I have the same issue. I cannot stand the way this phones handles contacts and syncing. I have yet to find a way to just add contacts the good old fashion way as static data on the memory card which is what I want.
Sadly I have removed everything facebook from the phone just to keep the contacts out despite un-ticking sync contacts
come on guys there must be someone with a way round this problem
....
Well, the only solution I found so far is to visit htcsense.com and edit all the contacs in there. So instead of having three contacts each with different information, I just have one contact with all the information.
But it took me about 6h to edit all the contacs
lol not really a 'solution' is it.....
i have done this now takes ages as it loads up all contacts every time. there must be another way to sort this out i love my DHD but this is rely doing my head in now. I get a bigger list when i go to tex and add a contact in there all my FB contacts come up not much fun when you have 300+ in there all with funny stuff instead of numbers come on guys you can cook up new Roms but no one knows this problem HELP plz
Use your Google contact list... It really can't possibly get any better than that.
I am, but that doesn't stop facebook populating everything. Why can't I have Facebook for HTC sense without it putting all the contacts in there...
Open the People app
Tap menu
Tap View
You can disable the other contact lists

Oh wait to they're still in the dialer aren't they... sucks!

Exactly!!!
OK I just disabled HTC facebook completely, and now just use the native Android app. It properly supports "existing contacts only"
It's not like HTC's app or widget are particularly good anyway

[Q] contacts messed up

Hey guys
I am currently running stock froyo on my legend. for some reason, sync with gmail is acting weird. not all number from the same contacts are syncing. for example 1 contact has 3 numbers on my phone and only 2 show up on gmail.
I also have encountered lately another problem: my country code is +961, some of the contacts numbers that start with +961 currently show 1961 instead. i m not sure of the origin of this problem.
Any help would be much appreciated
Go on a computer, login to gmail, go in where all your contacts are and choose remove all duplicates and all should be fine ;-)

thats not it man. i have no duplicates. I use gmail at work so my contacts are nice and tidy. no duplicates
Aha I see. Hmmmm.
I had something like that a while ago. I had to fix that **** manually. :-/
After looking further into the problem, it turns out that those numbers with the wrong code are imported from facebook. Those numbers cannot be edited.
I turned off facebook sync yet the stupid numbers remain there.
Any ideas?

Matched contacts suggestions without a sense rom?

I was running cyanogenmod, but I missed the ability to match contact suggestions.
The dialer too obviously, I know I can use an alternative dialer for this.
If there is a matched contacts method or app, I can dump sense for good.

Bump in the night.
You tried the facebook for android app? twitter app? They synch the contacts pictures and numbers off facebook and twitter, google account would have hopefully backed up your contacts as well so it will pull it from there as well, thats the same as matched contacts (Y) all matched contacts was,
TL;DR download facebook app from market, install, just go to account settings and add an account and make it a facebook one
?????
profit.
I have people such as my brother who have different names on facebook and twitter. This gives me two contacts where I want one.
Have you tried Gibt contacts? I remember it offers some kind of contact merging...

Gah... curse you, Auto correction. I meant Go contacts... should be included in Go dialer...

Gmail Sync

I didn't see another thread about this... but it seems to be more than just my G2. My wife's vibrant is also not working well recently. Is Gmail sync screwed up? I have a nightmare of a time sending any picture emails out (I haven't tried normal emails) and if I delete the message on my phone it doesn't delete on PC. Hitting refresh does not do anything. Any fixes for this?
I've had some similar problems recently.
It seemed to have disapeared by the next day.
I also deleted the emails that couldn't get sent.
Maybe that had helped.
