Auto deleting messages - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey dudes
Every time I receive a new message it deletes the last message that was received from that contact. If I send a contact a message, it deletes the one that I sent last to them. Happens with all contacts. Tried uaibg Handecent SMS and same thing happens. And ideas without a hard reset. I basically have only 1 received and 1 sent from a contact at any given time.
Cheers

Problem with reply path for sms

Alright. I bought Bell's Version of the of the galaxy s.
Within the first few days i messaged someone using a accidental area code (426) Instead of 416.
and now i cannot figure out how to change it back.
Every time i receive a message from said person, it sets my reply path to 426.
So I receive messages in one thread but have to reply in another.
I've also installed handcent
From what i can tell, its not saved on my sim or contacts.
I'm so lost
Please help.
Edit:
I'm also rooted

login to your gmail account update the user phone number in your gmail account
then sync the phone
if you have a duplicated contact in phone and gmail, merge them
Well the number is kinda not saved in contacts
Like its a problem I have with messaging
The 416 number issaved.
Thee 426 is not.

Wrong contact number

Hi, yesterday I added a new contact into my Nexus. When I went to text the contact later on, the message failed to send. I noticed that I had entered the contact number incorrectly (had an extra 0 at the front) and corrected my mistake. The thing is now, whenever I receive a message from that contact, and reply, it tries to reply to the incorrect number I originally entered, even though there is no reference to it. I have to keep deleting the thread on Handcent, and starting a new one, but it still always messes up when I have to reply to a text.
Anyone know why this is? I tried to delete the contact from the phone, and I get this message: "This contact contains information from multiple accounts. Information from read only accounts will be hidden in your contacts lists, not deleted"
If it's of any help I have nexus one with cyanogenmod 6.0 installed and use handcent and have whatsapp installed as well (not sure if ths makes any difference)
Bump, incase anyone missed it.
Have looked at the contact info via your web Gmail?
When you go to edit your contact, keep scrolling down. Android as an annoying way a merging multiple contacts if they have the same name...

Did that but there is nothing out of the ordinary there either.
Try clearing data from your Dailer and Dailer storage?

Did that too, as well as contact storage and contacts. It has to be being cached somewhere, but I don't know where.

[Q] Cognition v2.3b6 SMS Order Problem

I have a rooted i896 running Cognition v2.3b6. Now by default, when I used the sms app, the time listed for text messages that i receive are 5 hours in the past (at 945pm i received an sms, but the time listed under the text was 445). Because when I my text messages that are sent with the proper time, so in the text message thread my text messages are always first and my recipients texts appear always before in the thread.
I what I didnt was I changed my time zone to account for the 5 hour gap.
So after I did this, most of the text message appear in order except for messages that are sent/received in the same minute. For texts send during the same minute, my sent always appear after even if it is sent before.
I read on these forums that this is a problem with time stamping of the text from the carrier or something, but there was not explanation on how to fix this.
Is anyone else having this problem and found out a way to fix it?

You can download an app called "Sms Time Fix" and put it to adjust by 5 hours. You can also download "Handcent" or another 3rd party messaging app and the time will be correct.
I had a very similar problem. After i got my phone unbricked and loaded the latest version of cognition onto the phone the timestanps were five hours off. I am now using handcent and have no probles whatsoever with the timestamps.
Don't forget to go into tibu and "freeze" your original sms program that came stock with the phone.

SMS 'new message' notification won't clear

Hi.
I'm on Voda UK and my SMS notification won't clear, even after I've read the message. The notification light stops flashing, but I still show a (1) on the SMS icon. I cleared out all the texts the first couple of times to check there wasn't a message I had missed and it worked once the box was empty, but I don't want to keep doing that, for obvious reasons.
Is this a solvable problem? Ta!
Restart your phone.

I had the same problem too, only way to get rid of the sms notification counter was by deleting the text but next time it happens I'll try the restart option.
Does not help to restart phone...I have same problem!

VCard draft won't delete from messages

While trying to send a vCard via txt to my sister I had to go back to save her new number. When returning to my original vCard txt it erased the info and appeared as a new blank txt. After discarding the new msg the vCard draft reappeared and will not allow me to delete nor edit which leaves the draft as the first message I see upon opening msg app. Please help....

Back up messages that you need. Wipe data for message app in settings, apps.

Thanks for the jump start but no dice. #1 I couldnt wipe data through settings so I used titanium backup to clear data... Didn't work. #2 I tried to restore my old txt data from June... Retrieved an old message, but all recent text still there. I do have a nandriod from a few months back... Better than a reset I guess. Extremely persistent draft

When you are on your messages page hit menu and go to Drafts. You can select the message there and delete it.
