Some people that I send SMSs say that my texts doesn't has letters with accents, I mean, letters disappear...
For example: "telemóvel" will be sent like "telem vel" , "almoço" -> "almo o" (Portuguese words)
My bl is still locked, and I already did a factory reset, and tried SEUS, but problem continues...
With another phone, the problem disappear.
What can I do?
No one know anything about it?

But it only happens with my texts... even some phones receive with strange characters
As aimcr7 said normally this kind of problem is caused due to the receivers phone's font doesn't having characters like these ó , ç.Soinstead it shows a blank space.Other than changing the fonts of his/her phone & not using those characters in sms I don't think there is much you can do to fix this.

I understand that, but the other phones receive that characters from other phones normally, only from mine is weird... I tried to send messages to 3 different phones: Samsung monte, lg p350 (both with stock firmware) and doesn't receive ç and á (spaces), and tried another that doesn't remember the model that receive ã instead of an á
I'm on the stock 407 with my dell streak. Basically when on the stock messaging app, when a text message exceeds 160 characters it is converted to MMS. I have been using third party apps but I really prefer the default. My streak is rooted, and I was wondering if anyone knew a way to stop my text messages being converted to mms?
search in the setting that called as SMS Split or something similar...
sms split will auto split any message above 160 character... and therefore avoiding sms to mms conversion..

open your messaging application and then press the streak hardware middle button... it should show Settings or something similar...

As I stated above, that setting does not appear and if you actually read the post you'd know I'm using the default messaging app.
I was referring to this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1423340 that someone suggested.
It tells you to change some system files, I've tried ES file explorer but it only lets me access my SD card.

SMS issue
I have a Streakk 5 running Stock 360, rooted with a few tweaks and I have no problems sending long txt's or pics. I have tried multiple Gingerbread rom's and I have foung the split SMS option in some, but all of them require me to have my data on to send or recieve pics. I have a limited data package and was hoping someone knows of how to change settings or of an app that will allow me to send and recieve pics without data on.

Titanium Backup has a feature called App Profiles which basically allows you to have "two (or more) instances" of an app installed on your device. So you would create a new profile for WhatsApp and sign in with your 2nd number. Then if you want to go back to the 1st number, just switch back to the first profile.

Is it something like SwitchMe? Like you havee two completely different profiles or just the profiles for app itself?
Ill give it a try, thanks
Back at my iphone days, ios used to have a script called "appdub" which allowed many instances of any app. That was pretty neat.
I had 2 whatsapps for example. I wass also dubbing games for my brothers use, so we both used to own game profiles for ourselves.
An app installs itself to data/app/..... any version of the same app does exactly name itself over existing one. I suppose if I can merely change installation name even by a letter, I shall have two set ups (well that also needs a change in data folder name, but if one of aforementioned is possible, the later shall also be)

here is the chronology:
A01 = my register number for whatsapp since 2011 this number is on my old phone that's have a better battery backup (just incase)
when on wifi network i usually airplane mode my n7100, but it's also work with data network mode
just enter A01 to the whatsapp when u do the first setup with it.
then whatsapp will ask for verification code that u get from sms. wait for the sms (not more then 1 minute for me), when u receive the verification code, simply enter the code to the box. voila.. u can use whatsapp with different number on a phone that attached a different number too.
if ur register number is on a smartphone with a active whatsapp, then it will be log out automatically at the time u receive or send a message.
i have do this many times, because have flashing many times.
my whatsapp number journey: nokia 5800 <--> xperia sola <--> n7100 <---- while the register number still attached in my SE w880i
i also done it with line,wechat and chat on(no use anymore) all of them use the same number as in SE w880i
------------------------------------------------------
sorry my English is not too good, i wish u get what i meant by
I'm looking for an app that deletes sms message after a set period of time. I used to used SMS Cleaner Pro however it no longer works since I'm now running a JB ROM. Does anyone know of an app that will do this simple automated task as I'm yet to find one that works?
Ideally i want a minimalist app with the sole purpose to delete any sms older than a week to keep my inbox tidy, cheers.
No suggestions?

Sorry I got busy that day and forgot. Didn't remember until now. If you want to test what I have now, download this. It doesn't actually delete anything, it creates a log of what it did. View the log, which is minimalistic, and tap each one to see its full message detail. I did it this way because I want to give the users the ability to test and make sure its working correctly for them first. Plus, without actually deleting the messages, the process is super fast. The actual delete process does take some time. Which brings me to my next topic...
Before releasing a version that is fully functional, ill have to reconfigure some code. As of right now, everything is done in the screen. If you turn off the screen, or it times out, during its deleting process then it will be paused until the screen comes back on. And no one wants to have to leave their screen on while it does this, as the processes can take up to a few hours depending on how many your deleting. So its a change I must make.
Also, the autorun function hasn't been implemented yet. Good new is if your a user of my Bing app, then you know I already know how to do this. So it can and will be added!
I am still new to writing android apps, so I try my best to learn new things daily by bringing new features and fixes to to my current apps. So all suggestions and ideas for new features, or apps, are always welcome.

May I suggest an app that works with Tasker? Then it can easily be scheduled
It could be, but I haven't attempted to make anything to work for tasker yet. When this is complete, you would want to use the autorun feature included anyways. As it will have multiple options such as running daily, weekly, auto trim, and others, all with the option of choosing all, or specific, contacts.

Sounds pretty good. But autorun would require a service running. So that's where it's handy for guys like me already having Tasker running.

T9 ? I believe that feature was abandoned years ago in most phones... there's no T9 on Z2
1995 called, they want their technology back.
Yeah lets cry about every little thing now..
Abandoned years ago? lol, not even close. Actually T9 with predictive lookup is still the fastest way (least clicks) to get to a number that isn't on speed dial if you know what you're doing. Fast and easy doesn't go out of style and obviously most people and the OEMs agree since I haven't had a phone that doesn't do T9 yet and I get a new flagship phone every time one comes along that I like better than the one I already have. I'm curious what phones don't have it because I'm not running into any without it. With that said there are dialers available on the market with a wide range of features that are IMO better than any I've come across OEM mostly due to increased options so I'd look there for the weapon of my choice.
Wait a minute..
I believe T9 is there on my Z2. For instance, I type 326435 to search "daniel" and it works.
Is that what you're looking for?
I can confirm that T9 works with the dialer.
That is strange. Cause it doesn't work on mine
Works on my z2 too. Maybe clear data for your contacts app?

Just because a feature doesn't work for you, means that it sucks. Tried the Daniel thing that was earlier posted and it works fine. Try it in safe mode?

The fact of the matter is that the "daniel" thing didn't work for me, and accordingly to one other person in Singapore too. Maybe the Z2 sold in Singapore is different? The fact is that if I type "326435" it shows no contacts found in the stock dialer but in the 3rd party dialer it shows up Daniel. I have tried alot of things including deleting the dialer data, deleting and recreating all my contacts etc. But none works. This is a very basic feature of a dialer as I do not believe anybody will whip out a dialer and search for his contacts using the contact number. Hence by not being able to perform such a basic feature, it sucks! Sorry for being blunt.
To add on, I have taken a few screenshots to demonstrate what the phone is showing, vs what the 3rd party dialer is showing (DialApp). If somebody can post screenshots to show that their Z2 stock dialer can really show "Daniel" when they type "326435", I would be really surprised that this feature works differently.
1. First screenshot shows the stock dialer highlighting only the numbers which match 326 as I type.
2. 2nd screenshot shows that no contacts were found after typing 326435
3. 3rd screenshot shows that Daniel was highlighted when I typed 326435 using the 3rd party dialer
Working perfectly...i can find my contacts name dialing their corresponding letters,,,not a single problem
Try force stopping/disabling then reenabling it?

My Z2 is D6503 and it Daniel comes out fine. Daniel seems like such a common name.
I noticed from your 2nd screen shot, there's a space after 4 digits and then followed with the other 2 ie 3264 35 Could that be the reason.
When I type 6 numbers, they are grouped as one and not split into 2 like in your picture.
Does other more than 4 numbers also get split?
