[Q] Problem with Messages after ICS update :( - HTC EVO 3D

I've just updated my Evo 3d to the gsm Official ICS update, but i'm experiencing problems
My Messages app won't load. When I click on it, it shows the recent messages screen but theres a notice saying "Please wait" and a loading symbol, and i'm not able to click on any of my messages or compose new ones
I've left it on this screen for half an hour but the "Please Wait" and the loading symbol doesn't go away. It's probably because I have lots of messages stored on the phone, but this didn't seem to be a problem before the update
I tried using the Messages widget, and that works fine, all the messages show up and I am able to click on individual conversations.
I'm just hoping for a solution to the problem because I don't want to have to go through the widget every time to access all of my messages and send new ones. I would appreciate any help :good:
Thank you

If you don't care about your messages just clear your messages data.

thanks for the reply.
I do care about my messages and would prefer not to delete them all, but I guess i could use an app to back them up. The problem is that the option to clear message data is within the message app itself, and since the message app won't load, I can't get to that option

Not completely true .
Yes try to back up your messages with an app . then go into settings.. apps... Select all. Then scroll down until you find messages and you can clear data from there.

Thankyou for the help iTzLOLtrain, i tried that method, although the 'clear data' option was greyed out and I was unable to press it. Instead I downloaded an app that can delete messages, and let it run overnight. Now everything seems to be working

EVO 3D constantly syncing??

My phone shows the syncing icon 24/7. I have rebooted and also checked which apps are syncing. I don't have any custom apps that sync, only the Google apps. Under settings, it shows gmail and everything syncing but they just never finish. Anyone have this glitch?

Did you install the update? I think the update is suppose to fix this. I haven't installed the update but I have also not seen this happen on my device yet.
No, I haven't updated. I was trying to avoid because I don't want to miss out on root, but I guess I'm going to have too because this is killing my battery.

LOL....i just sent HTC another email about this.....i constantly get the SYNC icon in the NOTI bar....and in "accounts and sync" its not showing anything syncing....
Well I just went into system updates and updated the HTC software only. It fixed the problem so if I don't get root in the next three weeks this phone is going back to Sprint.

Too funny. You sent an email about an issue they already released a fix for.

This worked for me. If you created an HTC Sense account it's set to sync whenever anything changes (Push). Go to Settings-Accounts & Sync- click on HTC Sense and change the update schedule to something less ridiculous like an hour or more instead of push. Hope that helps.

If you guys haven't applied the updates then I wouldn't send HTC an email. The problem as far as I know has been resolved with the updates.

Htc sense authorization for facebook

I cant get the notification to go away, or get it to actually authorize. Anyone found a fix? Stock htc amaze, just got it today. Facebook works and all but notification is annoying.

Which authorization? I'm trying to follow what you're asking.
Have you tried restarting the phone?
When i first started my phone out of the box today, i logged in to facebook to sync contacts. I got a notification saying
"Authorize htc sense to access facebook". I tried many times and it says sense failed. I cant remove the notification now.

Try this, restarting the phone first.
If it's still there go into
settings>applications>manage applications>facebook for HTC sense>clear data
Restart again just to be on the safe side.
Then log back in.
Let me know how it goes bro.
Tried that, and didnt log back into facebook but notification is still there

If you just got your phone and don't mind wiping data how about a factory reset?
yeah I'm going to try that, but I'm afraid as soon as it boots up it will ask for it again. It asks for it when I add and remove synced accounts too. I have no idea. I'm surprised nobody else has had this issue so far.
well i reset the phone, as soon as I tried to add facebook account to my sync list (not the facebook app), it did it again, asking for authorization and now it's sitting in notifications again.

I honestly don't know what the deal could be. Sorry to hear you're having such bad luck with it.
Reboot, clearing data and a reset still didn't help.
I'm all out of ideas bro.
So tmo tech support has no clue and they're supposed to call me tomorrow with a resolution...this should be good.

Nothing from tmo yet, but task manager ending the Facebook for sense removes the notification, but after reboot it comes back, so if nobody else is apparently having this issue, I'll return the phone for a new one.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA App
I had the issue. you have to hit the notification and wait. Do it before bed or something with the phone plugged in, eventually it will time out. I did this a couple of times and it went away. Also, Check your apps on facebook from your desktop, if HTC sense is already authorized, try removing it, then allowing the mobile app to re add it. If you go that route, I'd clear all data from facebook and uninstall the app (it's seperate from facebook for sense) and then deactivate the sense app from your facebook on the desktop before you readd your facebook account to the facebook for sense, then download the full facebook app. I'm getting sick of everything trying to incorperate facebook into my life.
^ Thanks man, you gave ne the idea of looking at the apps setting in facebook, and sure enough, i had platform apps turned off. I turned it on, and tried the authorization again, and voila! it's gone!

Authorize HTC Sense
Did you ever get this resolved? I have the same problem. The Facebook app seems to work fine but I get the Authorize HTC Sense error in the notification bar. When I click on it, I get "error occured with HTC Sense, please try again later".
Read two posts above you. Ugh

Texting option

Hey when I receive an email with a phone number I usually click on it to bring me to the phone at which point I use the send text option. I do not see that option on the phone/contacts/dialpad screen of the Evo Lte. Am I missing something or is that option been disable with the dispute with Apple?
This is a result of Apple's overly broad patent. If you wish to get rid of it, and are rooted at least, head over to development and you'll find the forum to get rid of it.

I had the same problem until I cleared the delvik cache then rebooted.

Wiped dalvik cache and rebooted. Still no go.
The texting option is now an icon next to the phone number. i am not sure if this is what you are referrig to/missing.
This is what I have when I click on a phone number. I don't see an texting icon.
This is now what I get also. It worked for a little while now I can't get it to so it again.

Rom Rooted? Stock? S-on? S-off?
I had a weird issue in meanrom where sometimes i'd get kicked halfway through writing a text message to the home screen and if I go back to that conversation without restarting messaging it'll type like as if overtype was on and it would just type over what I had before hand and would stop at the last word.
This happened to me when I was running an over clocked kernel, within the first hour.
Haven't run over clocked and hasn't happened since.

Happened to me too. Screw sense.
Yeah happens to me too sometimes. They'll be there and then they're just gone...

Any clue on whats causing these system errors

Everytime I use Facebook messenger ill receive these errors one right after the other. They appear after I send a message or shutdown the app. I uninstalled and re-installed and the same thing keeps happening. Thanks in advance.

I have problems with messenger when I have the chat heads active. I will receive the system ui crash lots of times and then when I disable it I never see the error again. Might be worth a try?
I've had the chat heads disabled since they first came out, not a fan.
Well I narrowed it down at least. It was my launcher (GO Launcher) I set sense as my default and used FB messenger and didn't receive the messages. No to figure out why. I'm gonna contact GO as they have EXCELLENT customer service, partly the reason I use their products.

Huh that's strange that you all of a sudden started getting errors with that launcher even though you've used it for a long time. Glad that you were able to get it narrowed down though and hopefully they will have an idea of what's wrong and how to fix it
