Hey all..
First of all, im a noob here, and I have tried to search the forum regarding this issue but nothing seems to match exactly what Im looking for.
I have recently gotten HTC HD2, my first ever cool phone. I thought it was so great that it could handle everything. I have used my phone like 6 days now, and im starting to notice significant delay in its performance, especially when it comes to messaging. Huge number of smses in my inbox is my main suspect. So, is it common for the phone to slow down when the inbox gets fuller? Is there a remedy for this, like can I store the messages in other places instead of inbox? What do you guys do to tackle this issue? Or do you guys simply delete old smses?
Regards
i know what u mean but i doubt there is such software
or a need for one..
personally i dont see the point of all the messages in there my max message count was 100 average 15 then delete

If you want to keep them but get them off your phone, sign up for My Phone with Microsoft and archive them from the web interface. They'll be removed from your phone and you can still get them online. You can get them back on your phone by moving them from the archive back to your phone from the web interface.

There's also PIM backup that can be found on this site. You can back them up from there but you can't choose individual messages.
Thanks for your quick reply guys. Looks like i've to live with it. Previously I was using an ancient phone, nokia 6680. It used to have the same problem. And I thought my main problem will be over when I switch to HTC HD2, but nope.. Looks like I have to either delete the old msgs, or back it up some place other than in the phone.
By the way guys, try Jeyo Mobile Companion. Its less than 2MB, and it is very usefull. U can store and manage your msgs easily when you connect your phone to your computer. Very easy to use, i like it.
Myphone has already been suggested and you can save messages on there its a great way and you can go through it on the pc so you can delete items you don't want

hey guys.
something weird happend on my athena. all of a sudden, the messaging service stopped working. "messaging" wont open. even the sms feature of spbdiary wont load. i cant receive sms. i simply cant send/receive sms. even if i use different applications for sending sms. i dont do rom upgrades. and i havent installed/configured anything today.
anybody knows what i should do first? im hoping there might be a workaround other than a hardreset. i already did softresets a couple of times.

Try flashing Mitchy's rom.
the thing is, after reading all through the horror stories here at the forum, concerning flashing roms, im still hesitant to do it myself.
unless maybe you can guide me through all the way tootalk?
i have x7501 bought from the states. also, in a few words, what are the best things that mitchys rom have?
im surprised nobody else had experienced this problem before.
ciao!
if you installed any of those "lost and found" tools, then that's most likely the problem
since i had exactly your problem, until i removed those programs.
those programs might be good,
but unfortunately, it takes your SMS hostage, and wont release it.
making your SMS useless.
so i opted to have SMS, and well too bad if the phone gets lost, then it's lost.
yay! time to buy a new one the perfect excuse
hey allgamer,
what do you mean by "lost and found" tool? you mean like those security apps that sends messages to the owner just in case the phone got stolen? i have two of those installed, but i installed them a couple of months ago, and i never had any problems concerning them.
i'm now researching on how to flash my rom with mitchy.

Sorry for the delay dude. Shoot me a PM with your yahoo or AIM/AOL id and I can walk you through the steps to flashing with his ROM. To be honest, it's way faster and better than any factory ROM. I'm at the point now where If I don't even want to touch any PDA's with factory ROM's anymore lol.... I suggest you read up on how to CID unlock the phone first before you anything else.
messaging comes back if i remove memorycard
the messaging service works whenever i remove the memorycard, so i'm beginning to think that there might be an app that's messing around with the system.
another problem though, after i put back the memory card, the system created a "memory card" folder on the root file system. and the real memorycard now is called "memorycard2". the inbox folder has been created inside "memory card" folder.
anyway, i'm trying to muster up my courage and am going to accept tootalk's generous offer of helping me up with my very first rom flashing.
UPDATED:
i renamed the folder "memory card" which the system created, to "memory card err" and then rebooted. the messaging service is now back to normal.
but i'll still check out on the flashing.
ciao!
Is it possible to adjust a ROM so this isn't the case as it wasn't in all 1.5 ROMS? It's really starting to get annoying
Not that I'm aware of... I've not seen this in any 2.1 ROM, but I'll check out the apk for anything in the smali code

Cheers, it's not just me though is it? As when you choose which contact type to view under contacts it won't show the facebook contacts etc but if you view them from the dialler then all are still visable....

I have exactly the same issue, the facebook contacts dont show in the phonebook but show in the dialer?! Yet to find a way to stop them from showing.
I'm running VillainROM 12 btw, and apart from this little gripe the ROM is awesome!!!
I've been asking about this for ages... I thought it was only me!
Glad to see this thread even if theres no solution as it means I haven't gone completely loopy!
its also show sim contracts which are not in the people program. I turned of the view in people as im on o2 and they have preinstall number for bolts on and stuff like that but there still in the dialer and even if i delete them from the sim if i reboot they are back..
that the only thing that get on my wick with this new update.
It wouldn't of thought it would be to hard to solve as there must just be a slight change from the 1.5 dialler as they look identical?
It's in every 2.1 Rom I've used.... VERY annoying!
I've also come to realise that when trying to send a message whichever application I use it seems to use the same contact settings as the dialer, so if somebody has a different mobile number saved to Facebook it will give you the option of 2 numbers for them and It's impossible to know which is the sim, phone, Google or Facebook number... Grr..
Moved as not development.
Ok just hope it gets as god response in here
I guess not....
To best of my understanding this is a lost cause: The problem is obviously with the HTC phone application, but we don't have the source for this application so it almost impossible for someone other than HTC to fix it. You can try to bug HTC about it but I doubt anything will come out of it.
So is this a problem on official 2.1 update too?
Like others, this is the only real annoyance for me.
Would it not be possible to replace the application with the one that was used in 1.5 to solve the problem? It's a major oversight at the moment
Surely this isn't impossible.....
Hello, my Girlfriend has an admirer which started out as a good friend. He confessioned his love for her some time ago and started to become more and more aggressive while being rejected. He recently started to show some stalker like behavior and started to appear near her flat at late nighttime.
He also hinted, that he always knew when she was chatting with my through Whatsapp. I'm therefore afraid that he might have installed some Spysoftware on her Android-Phone (HTC One X+)
TL;DR
Is there a way to identifyWhatsapp Spysoftware and to remove it?

There is a messaging app called whatsapp, I've never used it so I don't know how she could remove him as a contact on there or just get rid of the app.
Personally I use lookout mobile security for virus/spyware. But a scanning app may not flag messaging apps as spyware, no matter how flexible it may be with its users info.

While this can be done. I doubt he has the know how on how to pull it off and is just making noise. Worst case would be to catch him doing it and call the cops.
She would have to remove him in her contacts list for the app

do a factory reset. just to be safe.
Also format sdcard for make sure.
Run ruu. Burn phone. Buy new one. All good answers

try this
about whatsappp it's indded simple to know when sbody is chatting, on every messaging window just under the contact name there is the last contact log, if in chat says online, even if chatting with another one... so maybe no spyware on her phone, just a smart stalker, but she can freeze him simply long press on stalker name in whatsapp contact list and block, also in android contact add him and from menù choose "send all call to voice box" or similar after choose a fake number as phonebox, doing this her phone is virtually not reachable from the stalker
plus add his number in a black list, you can find a lot of call blocker app in the market
and last but not least call the cops
im running avast and lookout premium and they cant find anything! ive looked through running apps and cant find anything obviously amiss. its sending messages like "do you know this hot sl*tty bird? then with some dodgy link i havent clicked on. i havent downloaded any apps recently but i surf a lot on my phone so maybe a dodgy site i went to? the messages it sends are not showing up on my phone, the people im sending them to are showing me.
i have a goodybag with texts so currently not a major problem for me, more for my contacts, but im flying to australia tomorrow so will be a MAJOR problem then. Can someone pleeeease save me? I have apps that i have had a longgg time on an email address i cant access anymore so dont want to factory reset as ill lose them forever.
i found a shortcut on my phone to an app named liiiioioo l kk Pl l.ioin l oii
im tempted to delete that but im sure thats just a shortcut right? went through manage apps and no app i have named this. Cant really do the limit privelages to apps one by one as i get no notification when they send a msg so hard to police like that.
thanks in advance!!

Hi,
I just got a new phone, if I go through the process to copy all of my old phone over to the new one can I still use my old phone after its done?
The main reason I'm asking is because I've got hundreds of open browser tabs (on 3 separate browsers!) that I want to sort through and bookmark before I lose them but want to start using my new phone straight away.
Otherwise it seems that all app data, apps, contacts etc is automatically saved and transfered so I think the open tabs are the only thing that needs sorting. Is there anything I'm forgetting/missing?
Thanks!

Hi,
Idk which method you'll use to transfer data, but your old phone won't be reset if you don't ask for it. Usually data transfer are just a "copy/paste" of the data from one phone to another. The only phone I know that loses data when transferring is the iPhone (and hopefully you don't have one).
Have a good day
Haha, no iPhones here! OK thanks, I couldn't find an answer with Google so thought I'd ask on here.
Great news as it means I can go ahead and start using my new phone.
Which method do you recommend? Does it matter? Options seem to be via cloud or direct transfer over WiFi.
Thanks!
