I had this problem with my previous TD1, you can download a cab with microsoft that will fix this issue. the can i used was, "WMDST2008-1".
I remember it stuffing up all of my appts and time with sms..etc...

Tried it and its not working. anybody else has a solution??

OK i found the problem and temporary solution. It seems like the phone is set to GMT so if i set it to my timezone which is GMT-5 the time of my received msg is incorrect. so i set the time to GMT and manually change the time and then it works. But there must be a better solution to fix that problem like a CAB fix or something. If anybody has a fix please share it.

i got the same problem
hey i got the same problem on my TD2
say for example when i send a sms for myself on 12:08 , it will be delivered at 12:00
always 8 mins before the real time .. although that the mobile clock works fine
and i'm using a cooked rom Energy.TOPAZ.29008.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.GTX.Mar.08
any help ?

Contact names not being shown correctly on incoming SMSes

Interesting problem this, it seems to have just started to happen out of the blue a few days ago.
The problem, in a nutshell, is that whatever I try to do, be it recreate the entries in the Address Book, create a duplicate entry with the same name, use the O2 Plus feature which lets you save a contact to your address book and make a new entry like that... Whatever I do, whenever I receive a new text message, the person's name isn't shown as the sender, just their mobile number in international format.
Even if I have that contact in my phone already, with their number in the same format as is shown on the text message (+447...), their name doesn't show at all. It's really starting to annoy me, as I've not added or removed anything to my XDA and yet this problem isn't going away.
Argh! Anybody have any ideas as to what's wrong? I might ring O2's oddly-named Data Support and quiz them about this tomorrow, too...
Cheers again everyone,
Christopher
When you search the forum for "CallerID" you'll find a few people asking about the same problem, mainly when receiving calls however not SMS' and some suggestions.
Do you have photos attached to your contacts? I'd try reinstalling the CallerID_Alpine_... from your Extended_Rom, if all fails it might be easiest to restore a backup (if you got one that is).
hth,
Max
I did some further testing today, borrowed a mate's phone and rang mine... Bizarre, the first time my phone was rung, it would take approx. 30 seconds for the name of the caller to show, the number showed up fine though. Subsequent dials would result in the name showing up almost instantly (as usual)...
.... Veeeeeeery odd. I'll just dash off and try reinstalling this CallerID cab...

How can i auto queue text msgs to resend when i have a signal?

can someone answer the above? At present, when u write a text message and are with no signal it simply puts the text message in ur draft folder which i find useless. I know nokia, has a 'resend' option or something. Anyone know of anything for the kaiser?
That would be a nice feature, i've come stuck a couple times like that (on a flight and out of coverage) and had to save them as drafts then click on send later when back in service.
I send a lot of texts to large groups and also find they stick in the outbox sometimes never moving, if i try and click them they send repeatedly sometimes people get 5 or 6 messages. Both these issues were a problem for previous versions you would have thought they had sorted it by now.
You could try using the 02 SMS Plus application...it lets you set a schedule as well as lets u send group sms's. It comes bundled with all 02 phones and should work on Wm5 and Wm6. Try searching the forum for a Cab file of the application

Text Message's not working

My alpine XDA PDA in the last day or so has developed an odd fault where it cant send text messages or open text messages or mms stuff. I can however recive and make calls with it, so I know it's not a conectivity problem. whenever I try to send a text message by useing contacts or the O2 active stuff the text message sending screen dosen't come up at all.
I have no Idea what is causeing the problem as it's not hardware as it makes calls fine but I have no idea how to fix the software.
I now have this problem.. anyone know what causes it?
If I try to 'open' ie run tmail.exe (in windows/) it does 'nothing'.
tmail.exe 239104 bytes
created 23/08/04 03:17
Deathnoise rom... anyone able to post their exe in case mine is corrupt, or is there an associated dll that I'm missing for some reason..?
It was all working fine until a week ago
Worst case I'll reflash.. but would prefer not to.
EDIT:
Gave up and did hard reset and old restore - now okay.

X2 says I have one unread text but I dont?

It began when I received a MMS...this was a second attempt MMS because the first one wouldnt download so I told him to resend it...the second one didnt work either but ever since the second one it says I have one unread text...I tried deleting both of those MMSs and nothing...then I did the s/w update that was just released and still nothing...now Ive deleted all my messages and its still there!?! Its not a big deal but its getting a little annoying...any ideas?

Try emptying the "deleted" folder?
Haha...I did but nothing...thanks tho!
Some softresets or just turning off the phone and turning it on again?
Should solve those kinds of mistakes...
I assume it's the same problem as with my X1i I had once. The message box is showing an unread message, but in fact all messages have been signed as "read" or it looks like there is a hidden message you can't mark as "read".
In order to get rid of this I used a tool provided here on the forum which removes that issue so use it and please give feedback if it worked out:

good luck mate !
its not a bug. it says unread text because youve not recieved your mms yet. i had the same thing. its still waiting for you to receive and read it, until you download and recieve the mms you will still have the alert. have you checked your mms settings? make sure your account is set up properly. the first mms i get on a phone is always a pain, but after that they should all work fine. i had to manually click on the notification and download it. it came through in the end.

Thanks...but after I installed it nothing happened...am I suppose to do something after its installed or does it just fix it?
Actually after doing some searching I am guessing that the program just adds the option of marking all as read and ive done that with no luck...plus ive deleted the whole inbox and still nothing...

I believe it is a bug because I received a mms correctly the day before...which was my first one... and I also manually clicked on the notification...I waited almost two days for it to come in before deleting my whole inbox...so I guess Im just stuck with my phone thinking Ive got 1 unread damn message...ugh

Actually I think this program is now making my phone freeze up over and over...
Soft reset really helped! But it didnt get rid of the 1 new text...lol...but now my phone is much faster and just overall much smoother...

you originally said that the first mms wouldnt download and he sent another one. until you download and read all the pending mms then it will continue to say unread. clearing your inbox wont make much difference since the message isnt on your phone its stuck somewhere out there on the network and your phone knows it lol. but i think they expire after 14 days or so. you might be able to reduce the expire time in the mms settings menu.
Oh, sorry I meant I got the very first MMS correctly...the second ATTEMPT on the second MMS is when the one unread message began to stick...but yea it will probably go away soon...should I change the validity period to 1 day? Or 1 week?
try it at as short as possible. hopefully that will clear it. if not, then you can try a program like "pim backup" to backup all your messages and contacts then completely clear all your accounts on your phone. you can then just do a restore to put all your messages and contacts back afterwards...

Unable to reply SMS-es through S-voice

Hi, I got an error from my gear's S-voice today when trying to reply an SMS.
The S-voice was unable to reply a message, it will reply "i'm unable to send the message", and on the phone, it will show "failed to send".
However, when sending a new SMS (i.e. not replying through the notification), it was able to work.
Has anyone encountered this problem?

I get this also. If you check the SMS message it will most likely have an incorrect country code. Mine should be +44 however it shows as 44 and I get a network failure.

I checked and the country code is wrong too. Did not have the "+" symbol. Guess that's a bug then...
same here, works with new sms, does not work with answering to sms
Hi,
I Have the same trouble. Any solution??
Gear with Null 12.
Stéph.
Check the format of the number in your contacts. I posted about this week's ago: numbers with parentheses don't work.
Edit: someone replied that + doesn't work either. Bummer.

I have exactly the same problem, I live in Germany and when I reply through:
- pre-made SMS: OK (it is sent to 00 49 1xxxxxxxx)
- through S VOICE: *does not work* "Unable to send SMS" (it is sent to 49 1 0000 xxxxxxxx --> WRONG Number)
I do not understand how a big company as Samsung fails to make that work...
PS: do you receive WhatsApp or Viber notifications on your Galaxy??? I get none from Whatsapp and Viber...
Doesn't know also why Samsung doesn't do anything??
Sorry but i don't use WhatsApp or Viber.
Stéph.
same here (switzerland)
this is what it look like, if i try to answer a message (i'm not even able to dictate text).
Create new one works flawlessly.
i alreay wrote to samsung support, but i dont expect that they will take this seriously and inform their devs..
