SMS/Text issues - S740, S743 General

I got a strange issue with send text (sms) messages on this phone. A message send from this phone is delivered multiple times.
It seams that when I open the text inbox to read messages it automatically resends a couple of my messages (a screen pops up telling me that it has send my message).
Does any of you have any idea how to resolve this?

hmmm
same problem here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=465577
Kinda scary why it does that? i noticed it does it after connecting to the pc. bit scared to use sms now
anyone got a solution?

This is an interesting "feature". I noticed the same problem mentioned by both of you when I changed the language from default (UK english) to in my case swedish. The thing that happens is that the folders "sent item" and "outbox" are changing places because of alfabetic sorting a-z. BUT when message is sent it stays in the outbox folder instead of "sent items" and the textmessage will send on and on until manually deleted from "outbox". (Normal flow is new msg => que for sending/outbox => sent items/archive but here's HTCs "labelproblem". Sent items will be redirected back to outbox.) My solution. Don't change the language from UK English but it's ok to change locale to wherever you are.
I hope this will wok for you too.

hmm
i of course checked the outbox and there where no emails in there..
But it could be a quick transfer to the outbox which i didn't notice..
I changed the language from dutch to Uk english, wil keep you informed if this is a language problem, hmm seems to be a language problem there where several messages in the outbox after i switched to uk english..
if this aint a bug i wont know what is haha.. hmmmm anyone knows a way around this?
UPDATE: using UK english after sending a text message it still stays in the outbox after it was send?
Frustrating thing is that in dutch or swedish you wont even notice this because of the extra langauge outbox folder box bug..
I also noticed that no copy of send messages appears in the sent folder?? And yeah i did select that under options

hi
i have exact same problem... i have a german S740 but i don't know german so i switch language to uk english, all the Messages remain on the outbox folder and the sent folder is always empty, even when i try to move messages to the send folder they don't move, so i have to delete the messages manually from the outbox folder or else it keeps sending them each time i reboot...
is there any fix for it? maybe some registry fix?
thanks

update: i tried every language in my rom and the sent folder box never works, i can't even open it, when i try it just freezes the screen ... i think there's some bug with the messaging program version of this rom, does the same even after hard reset...
anybody know which files are used by the windows default text messaging program? (.dll and such) maybe i can use some other more recent versions and fix the problem...
thanks

conversations disappear in messaging after 3.14 rom update

there doesnt appear to be anything in search relating to this so here goes.......
.....im getting sick of htc changing so many features and settings on this phone everytime they release an update. ive got another issue now. not mentioning the dozen ive managed to sort myself in the last day or so.
my text messages are now all over the place. if i recieve a message i hit the message icon on the scroll bar and it opens. reply and then close. normal situation. however. when i want to send another message to the same person either by opening their contact info or hitting the message icon and finding the conversation there is no info at all. wtf!!!
if i go to all messages i get a list of all recipients and the last message either sent or recieved but when i click on that person to reply the entire conversation, 1,2 10, 100 messages that are in brackets next to their name are nowhere to be seen. ive tried removing contact pictures, deleting numbers and attaching them to the contact when a message comes in. no luck. been through the messaging settings, cant find anything else to check or uncheck to resolve this situation. ive no contacts on my sim card just the phone.
cheers. i do need to know if its a general thing with this rom or is my phone just playing up? anyone else noticed this? communications is a big part of messaging and as all phones nowadays seem to be able to record and display conversations with each contact i find it hard to believe htc suddenly decided to bin the idea.
anyone got any suggestions as to how i recover this option as i cant be asked to remember the last few messages of every conversation i have. not to mention important information that i cant access if i cant pull up more than one previous message!
I have the new stock Rom 3.14, and I haven't encountered anything like you've described here. What application did you use to restore the backed-up messages after you flashed the ROM?
fixed this. i had installed a cab recently which disables the annoying 'sent message successfully' notification. but this was also causing the above mentioned problem. unistalling the cab means ive got my conversations back and all contacts/messages link properly. see here for all info and further links... http://www.htchd2forum.com/general-htc-hd2-discussion/more-hatred-for-new-3-14-rom-(conversations)/

[Q] how to add my photo to native sms app ?

Hi all,
when i send a sms my photo do not appear, i have a grey square...
My profile is set correctly whith my photo.
Bugs ???
Check if you don't have your number also on SIM card.
Checked, my number is not on sim card or on phone contact, only on my profile.
contact/menu/+/myprofile
any idéa ?
Great, so on list of SMS click on your "gray square"
Standart SMS/MMS application:
It request you about adding contact <your_phone_numer> say yes, fill some stuff what you want and click again on "gray square" on top, chose picture what you want.
Handcent SMS
It forwards you to Account configuration, where is first menu "Account picture" so just select picture, that you want to use.
In native app sms/mms, that not work if i press on gray square nothing takes place
just an orange border is displayed around gray square.
I have installed handcent and all work fine...
I think that it is a bug of native app...firmware is v10b
Strange.... If I tap on contact which I know, it shows me ikons for call, contactlist, sms and sometime for email if I have configured it. If I click on "unknow" person, it ask me, if I want to add add "xxxxx" to contactlist. I have Neojn's void. based on V10a
Yes that work for me too with unknow contact, i have no problem for add a picture to a contact but for ME not work...MY photo do not appear at right of Me:blablabla...
In same way like for other it worked for me. Try remove your profile information from phone and make sure that you haven't stored number elsewhere and try again.
I tried several times this does not work...
factory reset -> not work...
on French forums several people have the same problem...
Little hazardous solution, but you can try install mms apk from me, for try if it helps.
But backup original apk, or better do nand backup.
Thanks, i test now after a nand backup
Not work, i try to install and i have error msg: app not installed
and if copy your file to system/app icon of sms not appear...
tomorrow i try void rom...
Same problem with void rom, it is really strange....
i have the same problem.....

LOOOL, you will not believe!!! I was thinking about and I figured out, that here can be only one differences between each other and it is language. I chosen English instead of czech and guess what!! It didn't works. So, dou know some other language or can I write "how to" in czech?
I have the same problem. Italian user.
I think, that creating new contact with picture and yours phone number (without country code) should be enough.
so i figured it out ! you go to phone dialer > contacts > menu button > more and my profile and there u go
i allready try this method but not work on my phone...i don't know what to do
for me its work only with handcent...
I think it si a problem of sim card, Mine is more than 15 years old...
On parameter/ about phone/ status/ my number phone is unknow...

[Q] SMS Contact Lookup Crashes Message

Hi,
I'm running a HTC HD2 with Windows Mobile 6.5 running ROM 3.14.110.1 WWE.
Recently, whenever I try to send an SMS and type the contact's surname into the "To:" box - the messaging application disappears off the screen. No draft SMS is saved, and when I return to the messaging application - no evidence of the SMS is present.
If I click the Contact Lookup icon in the top right hand corner, I can manually select contacts through this method - but obviously it's a lot slower than simply typing a surname and picking out a contact.
I've tried removing my MS Exchange ActiveSync connection, and then re-establishing it after a Soft Reboot - but the problem persists.
Has anyone experienced this, and can suggest a fix?
Regards,
Richard Tubb.
Im glad I'm not the only one this happens too, I just thought it must be my fat fingers pressing the wrong buttons....
Sorry I cant help but will be watching to see if there are any helpful hints on how to fix this error..
How many text messages have you got. . . . Coz when i was getting this and after a hard reset, I didn't restore my test message and the problem want away.
Don't now as never found a solution yet.

Strange SMS Problem... Random Characters...

Hello All,
I have been experiencing a strange problem for a long time and now I'd finally like to eliminate it.
When I first got my DS5 (bought directly from Dell at announcement!), I moved my contacts database over from a couple WinMobile2003 phones (HTC TyTN I & II). The conversion went smoothly except for the strange occurrence of extraneous characters - in particular commas! I've combed the contacts database on the DS5 and removed and corrected any and all problem entries.
After all this the native Froyo 2.2.2 ('351) SMS application sometimes shows commas in a thread for a particular contact, for example, if the messages for contact entry "John Doe" with number "+1-800-555-1212' is being viewed, the SMS app shows "John Doe <,18005551212>"! If I attempt to just reply from within the thread, I will get an error indicating there was a problem with the number (due to the",")! So, if I want to reply to a "corrupted entry", I have to use the phone app's contacts feature to send a SMS and strangely when my message is sent, it automatically opens the SMS app with the correct name and number without the extraneous comma... If I then exit the thread to top-level listing of all messages, then re-enter the previously correct thread - the comma is now shown! It seems whatever database the SMS program uses is screwed up. By the way, I have even deleted a corrupted thread and when a new message is sent or received, the comma comes back!
Before I attempt a complete reinstall of everything and a re-sync with my Gmail contacts. (along with backed-up SMS, MMS & Call Log using the Market App "Backup to Gmail") , I was wondering if anyone else had experienced the same problem and corrected it?
Thanks, in advance, for your all's help...
