Every time I open SMS to reply to a text It always selects the wrong contact so I find myself texting the wrong person quite often. Is there a fix for this?

Anyone installed the new WM6.1 with the group text messaging? The application seems to be stuck to a different time zone as my incoming messages are always time stamped 4 hours back. The outgoing is fine.
I installed a 3rd party txt messaging application and the time was right with that. When i uninsatlled the app, txt msg time stamps were wrong
both my cousin and I have the same rom and experience the same issue. I could not find anything in the search either unfortunately

Maybe it could have something to do with the ROM? Have you posted your concern in the ROM release thread?

use the search function more thoroughly...
I keep running into this and wonder if any one else has the issue or knows how to fix it. By default the threaded messaging window only keeps the last twelve messages and then you can tap older for the next twelve older. At some point it will stop letting you go to the older messages, even when you know there are more to see. I would like to have more messages per page and have it go all the way to the beginning of the history or texting. I have looked myself and cant find where this is set. I also searched the forums and have not found any talk on this.
i have this problem too. and for some reason after a while, my threaded messaging just deletes all the history for that contact. even what i was able to see before...without me deleting any of the messages. it's really wierd
for me it doesnt delte older msgs it just wont show them in threaded mode
if you switch to non threaded they are there but i agree its annoying and random too
Is there any way to limit the number of threaded SMS messages that are displayed? For me, it takes a while to load the window when it's a contact with whom I've exchanged many messages.
I'd like the thread to show only the last 5 messages, or so...
Can anybody tell me what program I can use for my text messaging notification? The problem I have is that when I read the text message, it still shows as new. Meaning I have to go in to the inbox and highlight the actual message to get that number off my text icon.
I've found it here a long time ago, but I couldn't find it. And I did search but all I kept getting were post about disabling the sent text notification.
thanks.
i think you may be talking about kaiser tweak. you can do a search to find it because that thread is buried somewhere
I think he may be talking about threaded SMS not setting the text to "Read" when you enter threaded SMS.
I noticed this a little while back. I've just kind of gotten used to it. If I receive a new text message, I'll open it in threaded SMS. it won't be set to "Unread" until I exit threaded sms by pressing "OK"
Has anyone yet figured out a way to not have the Captivate log every single text and call you make?
It is so annoying to have to hunt all through my phone looking for tracks. Originally I assumed that they could be erased by deleting the thread in messaging. Wrong!
So then go to the contact/history and delete it there. Wrong! There is nothing in the history tab.
So then open the dialer, go to call log and look, every sent and recieved text, mms, and call is logged there as well. Its like a paranoid secret agent designed this system.
And heaven forbid that you installed a second messaging program such as Handcent to log everything all over again.
I currently use Horizon to keep my private texts private, but even that allows the outgoing texts to be logged.
Yes, deleting the thread, then selecting every individual item in the log from the unwanted caller works. Or even deleting the entire call log at once will work. But short of that has anyone come up with a work around for the call logging intrusion?
Found "Not log this call" on the market to auto delete phone calls log (Not free).
For sms you can edit the text message limit and reduce it to 1. This will at least keep 1 text message in store before it gets deleted. But default it's set to 200 msg per conversation and 20 mms per conversation.
Interesting. I looked at that app, I may have to try it.
Did you actually get your message inbox to go to 1? Mine will only go down to 10.
I am currently testing it to see if it erases the call log history as it erases the inbox but I dont think it does.
Ok, so setting the message limit to 10 only deletes the messages, not the logs.
However, while playing with it I found out that by selecting one of the logged entries (text or call) it pulls up a history type page. From there you can select the bottom left soft key, choose delete and then choose select all. I am not sure but I think it only deletes one page at a time or something as it seems to leave a few behind. I am still playing but its a hell of a lot better that trying to select each individual log in the main log screen. Its sort of what you would expect the history tab in the contact screen to do. (especially if you came from WinMo )
I hope someone else finds this helpful. I did a lot of searching and found a lot of complaints about this awful "feature" but no answers. This isnt much of an answer but its seems a bit more tolerable since I figured the history part out.
It also seems to be something Samsung adds as Evo and the Droid don't do it.
Check out HistoryEraser. I think I saw it on Lifehacker a few days ago, supposed to wipe away all your unwanted tracks.
I notice since Froyo, the Call log now records even SMS received and send. This makes for a long and messy log if you do a lot of texting.
I only want the Call Log to show calls but the "View as" menu only have separate options for calls received, made and miss. There is no way to view all calls.
Is there a hack or settings somewhere I missed out? Or alternatively, can we disable the logging of sms totally?
same question as above..
the reason i registered to this forum is only this, its very annoying,
there must be a fix or android must fix this, sometimes i miss my iphone call list, where there is not an endless list with both recieved, called and sms, worst is that its not imbedded within each contact.
if that was possible then i can manage to have the sms log in there to.
and why not have the option of having both recieved, called and missed in the same settings.. doesnt make sense at all..
im sorry for this to be first post, i a total noob when it comes to coding for android, which i intend to learn..
thank you for a great forum btw..
i hope there will be a fix to this

I would like to have a fix for this too. The call log gets extremely long.
since froyo upgrade i am having the same issue. whts the use of logging text msgs anyways.. it gets recorded on its own thread. Me and my gf text a lotttt. now if i want to call someone from my history logs.. i cant simply find them cuz i have to scroll down 500 msgs to find that number.. there shud be fix for this thing..
Still no fix eh?
I tried selecting one of the options, such as "dialed calls" and it works... until you close the log and then try to make another call, and it all comes back to the same story... wtf android?
