A little help - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
My phone refused to come out of standby mode so I took out the battery and started up the device. BUT i've lost all my SMS's and my email accounts have gone. All my other data remains (contacts, calender, music etc).
Does anyone know what happend or even if I can get my SMS's back?
Thank you
Man.

Er.. you bumped it?
It may seem a bit trivial, but have you actually got phone mode on and have entered your pin?

Yes. I can receive calls and new SMS. The new ones ones save but the previous ones seemed to have gone.

my xperia x1 doesnt receive text messages on time

My friends complain that I wait too long before replying to text messages. Thing is, there seem to be some kind of delay. The problem only occurs with my xperia (I tried using another phone for a while) so im kinda sure the phone is the problem.
Any idea how to fix this? because its getting very annoying and no need to say that it sucks to get important m'essages a few hours late.
It could be that screen wakeup on new message has been disabled look here for a fix

How about giving a bit more detail in what's going on? It could be you've got too many messages stored and you need to delete them.

Need Sprint tech/rep help!

I have been having issues with my Hero lately, and going through the Tech Support/Store/Retention phone transfers has made me pretty pissed off. (I was hung up on by 2 supervisors, and I was not even talking to him angrily) I hope that one of you guys who I helped out at one point or another with anything could help me out with my phone issues and figure out where to go from here with my phone/account.
If you are a rep/tech from Sprint, I would really appreciate a reply or pm. Thanks in advance guys

Yeah the hanging up thing was weird, I was talking and then all of a sudden I hear a click and the dial tone after that. I called from my corded home phone to make sure I didn't lose signal.

I don't know when you worked for Sprint but we have a "release" button to drop calls. If we hit it, we get pulled up on a report and the call is listened to see why the release button was hit I WORK for sprint
Ok guys, nevermind. I am selling my Hero.

I'd be afraid to buy your phone if you've got such problems that you're willing to dump it because of them.
Inquiring minds want to know!

Hey, I've got problems if any Sprint Techie would please listen to me!!! I've asked for help from a couple of developers and all I get is ignored and told, "Sorry dude."
Two weeks ago, I themed using MM instead of the usual signed zips. Since then, my phone completely freezes/black screen every single time I get an incoming call, requiring me to pull the battery and hard reboot. No buttons work/black frozen screen until I fully reboot. Everything else works perfectly except for incoming calls. I can't have this!
I pulled a logcat (found nothing), RUU'd, re-rooted, reflashed the ROM (Flipz 2.1d), wiped the SD, etc. Still happens and am now so ticked I'm about to auction this POS and get me the EVO too! I took it to a Corporate Sprint Store 25 miles away and after I had to show the morons where the 'on' button was on the Hero (yeah, seriously, I did), they told me I'd be without a phone til after 7/5 while they work on it, because of the holiday (I can't, I use my phone for work!!!).
All I themed was a revised rosie killing off the top-bar clock & battery signal meter, and another hiding the text under homepage apps.
WTH??? Could someone please, please help?

I don't think theming with metamorph could potentially harm your phone in a way that an RUU couldn't correct. Have you used an overclocked kernel or done anything that could potentially break your phone's hardware? If it happens when you receive an incoming call, I'd tend to think there's something going on with the cellular radio. Do you have any issues with data connection or receiving SMS? Any other issues at all?
Nope, absolutely no other issues at all. Data, SMS, all fine.

Does it happen EVERY time you get a call or with less frequency? Are you using a non-standard PRL? I suppose there could be 100000 different things making your phone do that, but I just don't see MM doing it.
Then again I've been wrong before.
No, when I have it plugged in on USB or straight charger, I'll occassionally get the incoming call. Not always, but occassionally. Once today it rang through, then I got 8 lock ups, all on incoming.
But when the phone is off the charger, I won't get the call at all. It completely locks & goes black even before I know there's an incoming call. I only find out when I check the phone or hear the BT shut off in my ear. Then I'm forced to pull the charge & reboot, only finding out 5-10 min later that I missed a call and have a VM message.
I had to call it myself to find out that it's locking down on all incoming calls, because at first I just thought it was doing random lock ups. But, no, it's only on incoming calls.
I've had some weirdness with incoming calls recently, but that's due to forcing my clock speeds way low when the screen is off with overclock widget.
If you successfully RUU your phone and you still can't receive calls, my money is that it's busted.
Anyone else have any ideas?

Texting error "Delivery Report: Not requested" fails

I have installed the official Darky 7.0.1 ROM, with the OC/UV Charge Death fixed kernel for the past 5 days or so. it has been great. Until today when it turns out that I cannot send any texts at all.
The report on the message is "Delivery Report: Not requested".
I have looked at my APN settings and they all look the same as what is posted in the main sticky, was missing the password but that seems to make no difference.
Does anyone have any idea what is happening?
Seems like i have not sent a text since the 25th, but it should be working as I have had this ROM on since the 24th.
Any clues?
Thanks for any help.

Mine was empty so I was able to put in +1312314810 without the # pound sign, but alas it did not fix it.
Is the Pound sign necessary? it kept rejecting it for me.
Thanks for the suggestion.

[Q] I think someone hacked my phone! Please help me!

Hello,
Yesterday I pull my phone out of my pocket and when I tried to unlock it, it didn't unlocked. I assumed it turned off somehow so I tried to turn it on and it didn't turn on. So I pulled out the battery and put it back and then turned it on. After some hours I got an email that says that I changed my facebook password, of course I didn't change it so I pressed the link and changed it back and few minutes after my gmail's pass was changed. Someone hacked into my facebook and gmail!
Today my phone start acting wierd, when I tried to use things with the wifi or 3g net on there were strange bugs like:
1. When I'm trying to use the camera with gps on it stucks every few seconds and give me a black screen and then come back, but with gps off the camers works fine.
2. When I'm playing fruit ninja with internet on, the game pausing itself from time to time.
I'm sure that there are some other bugs that I didn't found yet.
The crazy thing is that when I'm turning off wifi and 3g internet all of those bugs diappear!
I'm using Sernedipity 6.2, I upgraded few days ago but the problems began only yesterday.
Could it be that someone hacked into my phone? What should I do?
Please help me!
Did you download big booty babes on the market?
If you really believe something is wrong, odin back to stock. That will wipe everything. Then change all your passwords. And don't use you're phone for porn again.

LOL!
Yeah, I would say a wipe via would be sufficient. Sorta the equivalent of using a recovery CD on your computer remove viruses.
lol I didn't downloaded any porn apps.. how can someone watch porn on such a small screen..
I will flash back to stock and flash the rom again.. but another question.. how can I check if it's not a malicious app that I installed not from the market and when I install her again it will do it again?
I run an "Antivirus Free" scan, and it said my phone was clean.

Wait, did you click on the link in the email telling you your password has been changed? Because that's a sure-fire way to reveal your password to any hackers! Always change passwords directly on the website (Facebook, Gmail, etc.)

Text messaging problem

Hey guys, so today I decided to backup my texts and once I did that I started to delete messages from my phone (as I normally do without any problems). I know it can take literally forever for just one convo to delete especially if you have over TONS of messages, so i waited and waited for the 'deleting messages' box to disappear.
I left my phone doing it's thing whilst ocassiaonlly using the phone at the same time, obviously I didn't do anything in texts, but when I went back on messaging I noticed it was gone, so I tapped on messaging again only to find the 'opening conversation' to appear and its been stuck like that for ages, therefore I cannot access any of my texts yet..
Any advice on what to do? Is it really still opening conversations? (it's been about 15mins probably!) and I have no idea if it deleted one of my convo's fully.. Is it safe to turn the phone off & then back on perhaps? I don't want to risk losing anything...
Hope it all makes sense. Thanks!
EDIT: nevermind sorry, it literally just stopped with the opening conversation message and back up. My convo I tried to delete is still there though, so will try again and not touch anything this time! Sorry, please remove this thread if you wish!

Appreciate the response, but I thought I would ask to see if other people had the same experience and therefore can share the right way forward?

Oh my days, it's now probably been about 2 hours since I started deleting and its STILL doing it - is it supposed to take THIS long?
I had my phone showing messages from another conversation/recipient a few days ago. In this case, all alerts from my train operator about delays were showing as being sent from my wife.
Killing the task and reloading messaging seemed to fix it, but it now has me worried that such problems might one day see me getting corruption errors, although I don't really have any texts I couldn't afford to lose.
