Hi, I was wondering if anyone else has this problem as it is quite annoying. I have the standard WM6.1 rom from three australia (3.29.861.0 WWE).
I have SMS and MMS as one item in messaging and threaded sms is on. when sending and receiving SMS, its fine, but as soon as someone sends me an MMS, the whole thread for that person gets their name replaced with the phone number instead.
if I turn off threaded SMS and look at all the messages normally, I can see that all SMS's have the contact name as normal but all MMS's have the number instead of the name. If I click the number, it still goes to the correct contact in my phone book.
anyone seen this or know how to get names appearing on my mms's?
thanks
Jayme
jayme, did you fix this? I am also experiencing this issue.

Hey guys, I like the new threaded style messaging in WM6.1, though whenever I send or receive a MMS message the contact name disappears and only gives me the phone number throughout the thread. I am guessing its because of the plus sign that is added in front of the phone number when you send a MMS message and it is not recognized. Does anybody know how to fix this? If possible, other than just disabling the threaded style? Thanks would appreciate the help.
New Rom?
You could flash a new rom. I use Dutty's April 29th rom and it works for me. Something you could do if your willing to try a different rom.
Hi!
Does anyone have a solution to the threaded messaging problem when trying to read mms messages with pictures.
In general I cant make threaded messaging to work. I had to disable it to be able to recieve pictures in mms at all. When it on all it does is to screw the mms up, it doesnt make the sms or mms threaded at all. What can be wrong?
Can I do anything else to configure it more then disable or enable it? I want threaded messaging to work and my mms messages to work. Does anyone else got this problem on their diamond? A friend has a HTC Touch and a TyTnII and it works perfectly on that one.
hi
I have the same problem but I don't know, if it has something to do with installed programm SmileySMS v1.68.
My temporary solution: If I receive a mms (not very often) I disable threaded sms, so I can see the picture in mms.
I have had this problem since the first day when no app were installed exept the ones preinstalled. I have no solution but am still looking for one.
Anyone that have one?
can't help i'm afraid, it seems to work for me.
The MMS arrives, and it shows in a thread.
I press the up arrow to highlight the message and then press the centre button.
that seems to open them for me. It doesn;t show the picture in the thread, but maybe that's something for the guys here to figure out??
Hi,
I got an MMS earlier from a friend whose number is in my phones contact list (phone memory - not SIM). The message displayed his number, not his name - despite him being in my contacts. This is annoying as I couldnt work out who it was from until I called the sender and his name flashed up at that point.
After searching google and XDA dev I can find many references to this exact issue, but no solutions
Anyone got any ideas??

I'm having the same problem. Always had it with all 6.1 ROMs. Or at least that's when I started noticing it. I just flashed the ATT rom so I'll see if I still get the same problem. I had it with Laurentius and HTC roms.
Yep, I have it too.
I just got an SMS and it displayed the senders name on the notification bubble.
When I closed the bubble and went to view it in Messaging the message showing in Inbox was also showing the senders name - the MMS messages above still only had senders numbers (even though one of the MMS senders had their name showing on an SMS below).
It looks like MMS messages are the cause somehow!?

this may help
I keep running into this and wonder if any one else has the issue or knows how to fix it. By default the threaded messaging window only keeps the last twelve messages and then you can tap older for the next twelve older. At some point it will stop letting you go to the older messages, even when you know there are more to see. I would like to have more messages per page and have it go all the way to the beginning of the history or texting. I have looked myself and cant find where this is set. I also searched the forums and have not found any talk on this.
i have this problem too. and for some reason after a while, my threaded messaging just deletes all the history for that contact. even what i was able to see before...without me deleting any of the messages. it's really wierd
for me it doesnt delte older msgs it just wont show them in threaded mode
if you switch to non threaded they are there but i agree its annoying and random too
Is there any way to limit the number of threaded SMS messages that are displayed? For me, it takes a while to load the window when it's a contact with whom I've exchanged many messages.
I'd like the thread to show only the last 5 messages, or so...
Today I was abotu to write a new SMS but I selected new Voicemail unfortunately. The phone lagged for a few secs then I received 2 new MMS - from several weeks ago. I find that they were old SMS I had received! The SMS body had been put in the subject and the phone asked me to download the MMS, but it couldn't when I chose yes, because they were of course outdated. Now I'm stuck with these MMS, the subject doesn't hold the whole body, it's been cut! I want my SMS back! Help me It's very important for me. I've tried exporting with SmsImport and SKtools, they appear as MMS with the text cut...
