Hey there!
Since i havent got answers in the threads of the ROMs, I thought maybe through my own thread i could find people experiencing similar issues.
my problem is as follows:
when i click on a sms directly out of manila so the contact tab pops up with my threaded messages, i can type and everything but everytime i'm clicking send it won't..
The only thing it does is to display a new message in my inbox which is empty. no sender, no text etc.
Sms'ing works nice when responding via the Inbox, but you know, that's 2 more clicks.. ;-)
this happens only with the Topaz based contact tab!
thx for reading and im looking forward to some help!
best greetings
hmm...seems like it's no common problem...what a shame =(
I think you will find if you read the threads (duttys 3.7 is a good one) that the sms issue is based on maila and not the rom, also that it has something to due with the unicode sorting.
To verify if the Topaz roms doi in fact have an issue I would think the Tpoaz section of our site would be a better choice.
We also have other topics on SMS issues in this section.
Please don't bump your own thread.
First: Thanks for responding!
The strange thing is that, after i flashed a new rom, the first few sms are handled normally, even through this contact-form. But after a while, like say first soft reset or so, it wont work again. Even though my settings are completely the same...
I'll try to check out the Topaz section and try to find a solution..
solved. sms bug is fixed with manila 2.1 (f.e. in duttys 3.7)
thank you very much dutty at this point ;-)
Hi,
Does any know if there is a T9 onscreen application for sms on HTC DReam? I sms alot and the keyboard is driving me nuts!
Any help appreciated.
Better Keyboard has one (which I would really recommend, due to the skins). There's also a Big Keys T9 version.
Hey Jordanjay, Thank you for your help. I tried but when i clicked on the "open in market" icon, it shows that there were no matches in android market for the search.
Would you know what's wrong? Thanks alot.
What build are you on? The soft keyboards will only work with cupcake builds.
You could always try searching for 'T9' in the market, I found both of these applications via that search.
what do u mean by build? i tried searching the market but to no avail. pls help
Go to Settings > About Phone.
What is displayed under Firmware version?

Haven't had issues like that. You should email Better Android (the dev) about it.
I'm currently using EnergyROM Genesis manila 2.5 and I'm having some problems with sms. After sliding out the keyboard in the sms tab, the screen freezes and the phone is unresponsive. I had to remove the battery to restart the phone. This doesn't happen all the time, just randomly, but eventually it'll freeze. Does anybody have this problem with other roms? Someone please confirm if this is a rom issue or manila 2.5 bugs. If anyone have a fix for this, please post it here. Thanks in advanced.
2.5 is alpha. if you don't like it, downgrade to 2.1 or wait for official release

I understand that but I haven't seen anyone having the same issues so I was checking to see if anyone have this problem. If it's a rom issue then I can easily change rom but if it's manila's 2.5 bugs then i'll just wait for the official release.
Would it be possible to use windows SMS instead of manila's sms?
SMS Manila 2.5/2.6
in sms tab, click all messages> settings> traditional mode and you'll get all traditional WM sms folders and working, though on slower end, but comparing the eye candy u get from Manila 2.5/2.6, it is worth.

Have not tried that but HTC Messaging works without 2.5 and somewhat works with 2.1.
Will give it a try when have time...

I get it sometimes in my ROM. It is just a manila bug...
Please post problems with ROM's in the realevant thread.

Hi,
I am a pretty basic user and way back when there was a change to Manilla that i really didn't like, and all newer versions seem to have this one annoying feature that almost kills all newer ROMS for me. It's in the messaging, specifically SMS, where (i believe) if u enter a message thread by clicking the message, there's a centered text box now and the soft keys have changed. Where "send" used to be, now there is "back." I can't tell you how many mssgs i've lost because i accidentilly hit the back button.
I think this happened from one version of Manilla to the next? If so can anyone tell me which version incorporated the change so i can look for the older versions, or if there is a fix out there to get back to simple threaded sms
TIA!
Thing you are describing is feature of manila 2.0 and higher. There is simply solution thanks to user CMYLXGO. Try google for "cmylxgo rhodium sms app disable". Install the cab and next time you tap the message you get the well known windows SMS application
oh awesome! thanks....maybe now i can get into 6.5
Hi
Is there any Topaz ROM that does not have any of these sms bugs/problems:
1. Slowing down to a crawl while writing a long sms;
2. While writing an sms having words combine because the space bar just doesnt register or the keyboard is too laggy;
3. While writing an sms having the cursor return to the start of the message or at another line during writing a message;
4. Not being able to view, or losing the view window, when writing an sms resulting in having to re-tap the view/text writing window once or twice to see what is being written.
I have said this many times HTC messaging IS ATROCIOUS and these bugs make it downright annoying and unfunctional.
Is there any chef who has cooked with the latest 2.5 ROMS (as at Feb 2010) that has somehow fixed these problems or does HTC Messaging remain a crap app?
An annoyed Aussie
PS I have applied all the HTC SMS fix, Zenee's fix but to no avail.
it is getting better, but a perfect htc messaging is a farcry....hopeless.
btw the so-called hotfix is also useless.
Not Just Me
Thanks
At least it's not just me with these problems.
Can anyone provide us with an email address to someone of worth at HTC? I would love to let them in on these problems.
Cheers
Aussie

you can always google, not that will be of any help, I suspect.
ppl here said anything about (1)htc messaging is not intended to accommodate large number of texts, and/or (2)htc messaging is designed for Sense 2.1, not Sense 2.5
well, somebody somewhere is doing something about it, just have to be patient.
I believe you meant to say that htc messaging is designed for 2.5 not 2.1
It is also designed for snapdragon 1ghz processor. our processors cannot act as fast and therefore htc messaging is EXTRA slow

thanks for the correction.
however come to think of it, htc messaging on 2.1 is superb.
oh well.
When I use HTC messaging to create a new sms, and when I press Ok or Send,
the message will be send out, but the screen will hung....
Any other functions are OK but I can't use htc messaging anymore...still the same screen...
anybody can help?
Yeah, just disable the program, search 'zenyee disable' or 'disable htc messaging'.
Only one bug in recent ROMs that uses manila 2.5.1922 or 2.5.2010: the unread bubble doesn't dissapear after reading the message. If you don't mind not seeing the bubble at all (you have the notification icon in top-bar) this can be resolved by removing the 'sms patch.exe' from windows/start up/ directory (after installing the cab from the thread i pointed you at).
Oh and did I tell you that when used on manila 2.5.2010 the patch reverts to manila 2.1 sms messaging style?
I hope this thread becomes well known in the community for the solution to this catastrophic issue. I experience all the above mentioned problems and more, htc sense 2.5 msging is just unusable.
somebody just posted and claimed that he/she just ended the calamity surrounding htc messaging by installing the IME (touch input method or something).
I've got the same... I tried Leo IV, Prime I, new roms from NhatHoa, bysio and still big problems with sms... Now on NhatHoa I can't send sms, its still in outbox, SR doesn't help. New manila is faster than previous but msg app is just terrible. I'm going back to TESS III and Im waiting for fix for msg app
cheers

it's got nothng to do with the ROM, like I said. It's just the HTC Messaging on Sense 2.5 is kinda pushing it on a Topaz. You can always install Zenyee's cab to disable htc messaging, and then there's this UI to mimic a more decent cosmetic by Astronout.
Yes, I know that, I meen that new roms which are based on manila 2011 got this crappy htc messaging, so that's not working for me... Or maybe I just got something wrong Meanwhile when TESS Leo III is downloading, I try this cab, thanks
EDIT: now is working like a charm, even manila seems to be faster Thanks again So I hold on for now with reflashing

EDIT: The nightmare is over !!!
With NhatHoa's last rom ( Rom_WWE/ITA/FRE/ESN_NhatHoa_08/02/2010_Build 21891/23529_M2.5.20113030_Drivers 2.53 ), Zenyee's cab restores the good old version of HTC messaging ! (the one from manila 2.1)
So no more sms bug and there is even no need to apply the skin from Astronout.

So I was like.. WAIT WHAT?!
Confirmed? For real? The 2.1 under 2.5?
hi all, when you cook a rom, just include IME_Tutorial_1_0_19222525_0 and a touch input(such as IME_CHS_2_1_19203826_00), then HTC messaging will be OK and works fine.
messaging agony is over?

Any chef (ljankok, patensas, Dutty, Nhathoa, etc) can confirm to this, please?
I personally can confirm this using Tess prime I and if you disable HTC messaging then you'll get the old messaging from 2.1 but with a little side effects such as the notification bubble in messaging tab will not disappear sometimes it won't rarely it will also time stamps might be off as well but it does work and fast at that
