So a few weeks ago while traveling, my phone freaked out in the airport. Now the phone keeps saying I have 1 new text message. When I goto the text messages section, there is nothing there.
I tried clearing all messages out (sent, deleted and inbox), did not work. I tried resetting the device. That did not work.
So I am stuck of what to do. Any suggestions?
anyone??? I have never seen anything like it before.
I suggest you use the search function of this glorious website.

I've gotten it twice now. It'll say 1 unread message, when all are read. You can try emptying messages, but it still says 1 unread.
Is there any type of fix for this other then reloading the rom?
I found this little program the last time this happened on my Wing - it has happened twice, but the first time, I had to hard-reset for another reason, which took care of the problem.
I had to fool around a little with this, trying different combinations of runnning the app and soft resetting before I got the result I was looking for.
Anyway, here it is, good luck with it.

I have been using my Tilt for a few months now with AT&T and have had very few problems. I have flashed it and tweaked it to my likings, however the other day I came upon a very weird problem. I was sent a text message by a friend but the message does not respond to any commands (delete, move, mark as read, etc) or allow me to view it. So now i have a text message which is new and unread and it is very annoying. I have pulled the battery, re-flashed it, etc without any luck.
Does anyone have any idea if this message is somehow being stored on my phone in a way i can get rid of it? Thanks for your help
About a week ago I hit delete and let it do its work over night since it was going to take forever.
First off, my Tilt only deleted the messages in the inbox, not the outbox. Then a few days later I reset my phone to check something, then ALL my text messages were back, and all of the texts that I've sent/gotten in between were gone.
Is there a certain way I'm suppose to delete this stuff?
I don't know how that happened, and I cannot think of any kind of special procedure to deleting SMS messages. What happens if you just delete like 10 at a time? Does that work?

Well the thing about that, I have over 20,000 text messages stored on my phone hah.. So doing 10 at a time would just take wayyy too long.
Whenever I hit my soft reset button, all my text messages from that day to a couple days before are gone. It's kinda weird and I don't quite understand it. But yeah, I'm just trying to figure out a way where I can delete them all to where they won't come back hah. Who ever thought it'd be so hard.
Has anyone else ever had this problem?
I can't view MMS messages now because it tells me to clear more space. I've deleted several large size mms messages off of my phone, on top of a grip of text messages to clear space, but it hasn't cleared anything. How can I fix this?
Hard-Reset
I had the same problem on my T-Mobile MDA...never did figure it out. But whenever I deleted them, they always came back. I haven't tried deleting all my texts on the Tilt yet.

I think unpredictable things start to happen when you have upwards of 20000 messages.
The other week my phone crashed and i had to hard reset it because it was carrying 47000 SMS messages, i think the problem i had was the SMS datbase corrupted when i as attempting to delete my biggest thread, with well over 6 months of messages in it.
So yeah, backup your messages if you want them and hard reset, and id try to not let messages get higer than 15000, just so the phone has space to breathe
I have the same problem with msgs that return mysteriously on my ATT tilt running the factory (att) default rom. The first time I tried it I had around 5000 msgs and I ended up having to hard reset. Right now I have around 15,000 msgs and still have the same problem (obviously haha). I'm probably gonna upgrade my rom anyway, but I just figured I'd let you know you're not the only one (and not crazy haha).

I've been having this problem for a few months now. I'm from holland and I already emailed my provider but the told me they can't help me.
So there are a few things happening:
My screen lights up but there's no message coming in. A few minutes (or hours) later I get the message that was supposed to be received at the time it lit up. Sometimes when I go to comm manager and turn the radio on and off or just soft reset the phone, I also receive the texts.
I send/receive messages when I start using the phone, like when you open a menu or something.
Sometimes I keep getting the same texts over and over again from the same person.
I've tried a few different ROMs so that can't be the problem.
Someone told me about flashing a new radio maybe that could do it?
Please help me??
Thanks!
Seems like the same problem as me
i'm also from the netherlands..
i hope someone knows a fix.
So my wife and I both got Thrills the day they were released. Only a couple weeks after getting them my wife started having trouble receiving MMS's. Even with the "auto-download" setting enabled MMS's stopped auto-downloading and if she pushed download it would just say "downloading" and never download until she rebooted her phone. Mine was working fine so I didn't pay too much attention. I kinda figured it was cause she messages a hell of a lot more than me and it might be a glitch there. One day I started having the same problem so I assumed I had reached the number of MMSs that she had when she started having the problem. So I deleted all my text messages in the messaging app. So she sends me an MMS today and same thing, didn't auto-download, won't download when I click the button. I refuse to reboot my phone for everything. Anyone else having this problem? Know whats going on? Have a fix that doesn't require root or a new rom?

Had the same issue when I got my Thrill, I had to edit a setting. I forget what it was.....another thing that's stopped my MMS is having a **** load of Message in my inbox that aren't deleted.
Go t settings and set up auto delete, clear cache, & change what you please, after that report back in a day

Clear cache? In message settings? I actually deleted all my texts and still have this problem. I never set up auto delete on mine but I did my wife's. Either way it still happened to both of us. This "clear cache" sounds like a winner. I wonder if the pics get downloaded but just don't show up in the app. The next time it happens I'm gonna search the folder with ES and see if it's there.
