SMS issue

Hi, I'm new here and I have a problem with SMS screen. When I start new SMS, the screen does not show any window for me to view what I'm typing or send to people. Is this a set up issue or I have to do a hard reset? Thanks for the help.

HELP!!! Im having sms issues now too.
When I reply or make a new sms - all I get is a blank screen. If i type anything, nothing comes up.
This all seemed to have happened after I tried some of the other input methods - eg. Transcriber. Plz help

I've also been having this issue. It's sporadic and doesn't happen all the time, but the text input field will be missing and the only way to get it back up is by hiding the keypad, then bringing it back up again. It does this with the default keyboards as well as touchpal. Any clues would be helpful. It also did this with the stock ROM as well as Swifty ROM which I'm currently using.

Did you do some type of back up? Using what? What Rom are you using? Under Diamond Tweak and/or advanaced Config click on hide sim contacts.

texting
hi,
i have already cleared the sim and contacts and then gone on to enter back on to contacts, it still doesnt work.
i have had my phone for a week now.
maybe tmobile will eventually update this on the next rom update if possible?
but is there not an application to sort this out that i could get hold off?

yea i use Sprite Backup 6.5.4 but i hardly think thats the problem..
ill try the diamconfig method and see
UPDATE: IT WORKS!!
how'd you know?
thats so weird too because i have no contacts on my sim..
right on man thanks

Actually I have a similar issue.
Stock T-Mobile MDA Vario IV
All contacts saved to phone memory, in the 07 format.
Incomming calls show the callers name if in contact list, all text messages show +447 number instead of 07 number and no name.
If contact is changed to +447 then texts show contact name, but incoming calls only show number :S
Any Ideas on a resolution?

I had the same problem after I installed the official HTC ROM update that was released mid Feb. I noticed that for my contact numbers here in the US, if the number didn't have a 1 before the contact's number, it would not recognize the number in my contact list. after i went thru all my contacts (a MAJOR PAIN IN THE A$$) and added the 1 before all the numbers, all my contacts' names appear again. not sure if that helps...

there with you guys. also on tmobile stock rom.
all my contacts are in outlook. ( not sure if that is on phone or mem card.)
but texts come thru with +44 and my phone doesnt recognise them. i am currently haveing to save the new numbers but when i sync on my pc. it reverts to the old ones coz i sync pc to phone.
seems to be generically vbe a tmobile vario 4 issue.

I have the same problem and I'm on Orange but I decided to try the NEW SWIFTBL WWE DIAMOND ROM V7.5 so this might be causing the same problem.
I am going to try the newer update from Orange to see if that will work.
Mines has been showing "unknown caller" along with the telephone number when I call my mobile from my home phone and the messages are just showing up with the number.
This problem has been bugging me from the last few months but I didnt realize that there may be a solution to this until I seen the amount of posts for tweaks on here.
I am nearly fed up with the phone...I just began enjoying this new ROM that I put on it coz my last Orange one was apparently an old one.
Will let you all know how it goes.

Just to let you all know that I updated with WM6.1 WWE CE OS 20764, Build 20764.1.4.3, V2.6 Full, UC Ready ROM and it seems to have worked a treat...all my numbers are showing names now and I have a much faster phone with additional positive tweaks.
It has a slider on screen on it too that you must slide to the left to answer or right to ignore...this ensures that it will not mistakenly get answered in the pocket.
Highly Recommended!
All Credit Goes to swtos and you can find the link for the lite and full versions here.
Peace.

been a while since i ran into this...
But I do believe there's a registry setting that is used to determine how many trailing numbers are used to identify contacts.. if you drop it by a number or 2 it should still work, and may solve that '1' not being there..
wish I could remember where I saw this registry setting...
Anyway, I don't really run into this issue, but I'm using ROMeOS... and all my numbers I went through and manually edited on my exchange account to always be in the (xxx) xxx-xxxx format, including formatting. Every number shows fine -- But I also have no SIM contacts (with exchange backup and spare phones with backups I don't see the need, it just seems to confuse things)

now showing all contaacts
i finally resolved this and posting back on the thread i read bb lee post.
that is what i did.
if you do advanced config there is an option use X number of trailing numbers to identify numbers i have set this to 10 this will then recognise regardless of +44 or 0.
anyone else try this and let me know if it resolves yours too.

Help needed: List of messages disappeared.

Sorry for the wall of text, but hopefully can get some solutions from you guys who are more experienced in Windows Mobile than me.
I got a brand new replacement phone two days ago from the HTC service centre in Singapore due to a camera problem from my previous set of Diamond 2.
My previous Diamond 2 upon receiving smses would place all the smses according to chronological order in a list which you could access after tapping the screen once at the Message menu. What appears would be the choice to view details of the contact, list of messages, as well as the call history.
However, the weird thing that has happened is that with my new replacement, the list of messages that i would newly receive would be gone. However, this only happened to one number which was CNANewsPack. I have chosen all my previous settings that placed all messages to "Threaded" in the "All Settings" menu but to no avail. Maybe there was something i missed?
Is there anyway i can see the list of messages that i receive from future from this particular number? Thanks so much in advance.

PLEASE HELP!! Galaxy S removes + on outgoing sms causing message failed!!?? HELP!

I've seen a couple of threads on this across the web but theres nothing i've found that can fix it.
So,
I have a contact saved with 07... or +44...., i send an sms to them fine. They then reply and when i click to reply at the top i can see the number has automatically changed to 44 (no +), therefore the sms cant be sent and i get an error message. I have to close that conversation, go to the origional conversation and then retype and send.
Recieved sms, upon reply drops + and message failed.
This has only happened on a couple of contacts and others work fine. I have tried standard sms, Go Sms and hancent. None of them can resolve the issue.
I have tried 2.1, 2.2 JP5, JPU and 2.2.1 JPY (standard and custom ROMS) and all give the same problems with the same contacts.
There is literally nothing i can do to sort this.
I have tried deleting their contact and adding a new one, sync with facebook (get them to remove their number and add it in manually). Literally nothing i can do has got around this problem.
Please please someone help me. For a perminant solution i would be willing to donate via paypal.
Edit:
Is there any way to REPLACE the standard sms apk with a different one as Go sms and Handcent run off the standard sms app. Therefore, maybe a replacement (rather than an addon) would fix this bug??

Somethimes it hapened to me too.
When I tried to send it again for once or twice usualy it works.
Would be happy if someone can fix this.

please someone help!!? I will donate £10 (like $15,16ish dunno exchange rate)

Could it be a problem with the person who replies phone or network? As it only happens to a few it sounds like their phone or network is not enclosing the correct reply number with their text. Is that possible?

I'm experiencing the same problem. It only happens to one contact in my list. I've tried many things but cant solve the problem...

Sorry for late response,
finally i have got this sorted. i think it is a samsung rom issue either that or possibly go sms (although stock mms did it too). I am now running cm7 and have not had this issue once, if you aren't running cm7, i would highly recommend it, it is very fast and reliable, there are some bugs but it brings new features too. check it out

If deleting the whole thread fixes it, there's an app in the market that can fix it.

Virtuous Inquistion Rom Message App fixed yet?

Everytime I go on Call Logs, tap on the number and hit the message symbol, it doesn't transfer the number at all to the text message app. It will only work if I have already texted that same number,but if its a new number it will not transfer. This does get quite annoying at times having to keep going back to the call logs to remember the number.
Was there an update for this yet. ive been waiting for an update for this rom for quite a while now.
