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
If that makes any difference.

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.
I synced it sand edited out but it still happens

It fixed itself after I flashed with darky's gingerbread rom

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.
Whenever I get a message from someone, all I get is their number. I realized it was only happening with my facebook synced contacts. I believe its because the facebook contact number has dashes (555-555-5555) and when I receive a text, it doesn't (5555555555). Is there a quick way to fix this? Or do I have to add every number and join it to that persons contact?

Sorry that I couldn't get back until now, but I'm using go SMS. But it does it in any messaging app. I tried checking the stock SMS app, and the same thing happened.

It is due to the way the numbers are saved. You will have to link them and make sure they are set up the same way as the ones that work.
If you're using google sync too you might want to go to your contacts and edit your google contact details cuz I think the contact list uses google details over facebook ones

Hi. Hopefully this is an easy fix
Since my update to 2.3.3 my contacts ids are not linking to sms chats. I.e. if I send a text to a friend, when they reply it only show up as their phone number when it used to be their name and Facebook picture.
This happens with every single contact.
What fixes are there? Is this a common issue? I know my wife is having the same issue with hers as well.
I really don't want to have to use an app to sync my contacts to chats. It should do it natively
Thanks

I've noticed this as well, the only workaround I've found was to reboot when it starts happening.
I haven't seen it in couple days.
It happens with my contacts randomly too, if I reboot, it happens to someone else sometimes. No fix?

Hi All
I tried to send a contact detail from my note (2.3.6 official rom with root and Franco kernel #6) and it turned the sms to mms?!
I could be wrong, but think that's normal?
Text message is purely text whereas contact is text, image, ringtone etc etc...

I do not think so, since I did not notice that during my using to HTC Sensation, but will try with some other devices tomorrow.
A VCF won't fit in the 160 character limit of an SMS, it'll always send it as an MMS with the .VCF as a binary attachment.

It there any thing can be done to change that limit?
I think that text capacity. Although newer phones allow you to input more characters, they're actually sending out multiple texts. If you've got an old phone and receive a long text it's broken into multiple texts.

If you send a vcard from an HTC phone, and import to another phone manifacturers device, you will often see something in the "Extras/notes" window saying "HTC:;data-bla/bla-yay/I'm a HTC phone/yayy." Basically there can be anything in a vcard, even weird code each brand reads differently. So I think you sometimes would get a freaking long sms message, hence the vcard needs to be one file, not reassembled from small parts.

You may want to check your stock messaging app as any messages you sent or received from GoSMS, should also show up there.
