I own a GT-P1000 and randomly today, as I was about to send a text message, I found to my horror that my inbox has reverted to zero. When I try to connect it to my computer to possibly fish for these data in its memory, I find that it only goes to charging mode. Any possible way I can retrieve my messages? The tab has already deleted my contacts a few months ago and I have relied on my inbox to identify senders of incoming calls and messages. A lot of information regarding to my work were stored in those messages so it would be a huge huge help to me if I can get them back

Sorry to hear about that. if you have been syncing your tab to google then by default your contacts should have been saved. you could at least resurrect them that way. as for sms and mms i think you are out of luck. i normally back up messages with the app 'sms backup & restore' from google play. it's free.

Hi all!
I was wondering if there is a way to force the SMS application to requery the Number->Contact relationship.
I have a number of text messages which only show the phone number but not the contact name even though there is such a contact in my address book.
I tried doing it by deleting all texts and restoring a backup from PIM backup but no luck...
Many Thanks!

In WM6.1, mine get fixed if I receive a new text from an updated contact. I still have some with Last, First because I haven't received anything from them.
Thanks
I just upgraded to 6.1, so lets see what happens!
I just received a text from one of the "problematic" contacts, but no luck.
The new text does show his name, but none of the older ones got updated...
Edit: The annoying thing is that the problem exists only in the lists view. If I open the text, the contact details show up fine...
Has any one experienced a problem with Touch Flow 3D when the number of new messages displayed by the green number on the messages tab is stuck and won't clear even when all messages have been read in the mail application?
Any ideas of how to clear/reset the Touch Flow 3D so it no longer shows new messages indicator?
To date I have tried several hard reboots, deleted out all recent messages from when this problem began, however it still wont clear.

At your email click on inbox, so your in the Microsoft list view then click on the top left inbox drop down. You will now see the tree of all the email boxes. If you expand the Outlook email you should find that the unread email is the one automatically created in that inbox.

The problem is with the Messages tab, not the Email tab which links to outlook. The Messages tab loads up to ArcSoft Messages application to handle SMS messages. When I go into the inbox of this application there are 0 (zero) new messages.
Go through every msg and wait 5 seconds
Hey did you ever fix this? I have the same issue and it's driving me nuts!

flashing the rom again fixed this issue for me
Inbox clearer
Hey guys I just ran across this thread and have a program to solve your problem. Ive had it around for a while and I do not recall who wrote it but just run the .exe and it should solve your problems. If anyone knows who wrote it feel free to mention.
Thank you for sharing.
I had the same problem. now, it not just 1 sms, but 2 sms.
I try all the solution, except flushing the ROM. can someone teach me how to do that? and what is the risk?
thank you
please help me guys with your wizardry.

does anyone know where the sent items are stored if not on cemail.vol ?
wow, no reply.
bump, any geniuses around?
come on have a go!
I guess I'm just a noob when it comes to text messages...I use email. But unfortunately, my kids and most of my friends insist on it, so I've been forced to start using texts from time to time.
Problem is, I can't send for some reason...and after a few hours poking around the forums, I'm not finding anything to help me figure out why.
I'm using the Hyperdragon build in my sig with MMS composer v. 5.2.2.22, and I have a data connection with ATT.
When I send a message, I've tried adding a recipient manually, and by my contacts list, and when I send the message, all it does is go into my outbox and sit. I also get a copy of it in my inbox.
I've checked that the phone settings for the ATT MMS server is correct, with the correct number for text messages, but still nada.
I'm sure it's just a noob mistake, but I'm stumped. Any ideas?
peace,
Aielman

I've double checked all the settings. They're correct.
I'm connected to the 3G network, and can send email, browse web pages, make calls, etc. I can receive sms/mms justfine.
But for some reason I can't send.
It just sits in my outbox and I get a copy from "Me" in my inbox any time I send.

Hello,
2 days ago all of my SMS messages disappeared. I cannot confirm if they were deleted by my clumsy hands or if there was a glitch in my phone. There have been many times where I pick up my phone and open to a random screen with a random call log, email, contact, calendar event selected. I've always just marked it up to a sensitive screen and my big fingers. If anyone know of an issue with the phone opening items randomly or deleting all the message, please advise.
But now....what to do...
1. Can retrieve my deleted SMS messages? I've searched Google Play and the Internet and have found a couple of applications that claim to be successful. It appears the phone needs to be rooted - which I hesitate to do. Can anyone confirm if SMS messages can be retrieved after deletion. ** I've a 2 new SMS messages come in, so hopefully the old messages on the phone have not been overwritten.
2. If so - how do I find the latest/simplest/safest way to Root the phone on this site? I've to follow some of the threads with the developers and it is a bit overwhelming.
My phone is the S6 Edge - SM-G925T, TMobile, G925TUVU3D0l1, 5.1.1
Thank you
