When i recieve a sms and short after that i soft-reset my wizard the sms is not in my inbox anymore.
It happend before and sometimes its enoying that a sms has been deleted.
Does someone know why this happens??
Is there a fix for it?
I use WM6 TNT5.0 Rom on a Mda Vario(HTC Wizard).
the only time i have found that to happen when using the tnt roms was if i have not opened the sms , if i have opend the received sms it is still there after soft reset , if i havent it was deleted ,cant remember which build of rom it was that did but since i have upgraded to the black diamond rom it never happens
I have noticed this on my Herald (T-mobile Wing) as well.
Has happened on both my old SPV C500 and my new LG KS20. If I have pulled out the battery with an unread text in the inbox then it's sometimes gone afterwards. I think it's some basic bad memory handling on behalf of the OS.
They really should have fixed it by now, because it's quite annoying if you don't know who sent you a text and you for some reason have to pull out the battery (e.g. device locking up). It has happened to me a couple of times.

I have a Cingular 8125 flashed as Qtek 9100, but this problem existed before the re-flash and on a regular 9100, as well as a couple of other devices running 5.0.
Basically, it won't notify me every time a message is received - it does it a couple of times after reset, and on the odd occasion and I can't figure out why. I have everything setup OK in the "Sounds and Notifications" screen but am lost as to what the problem could be. Am I alone with this?
It's especially annoying as I'm trying to give up BlackBerry and Goodlink using AKU2/Direct Push, and it ain't much use if I dont know an email has arrived.
THANKS, gang. NICK
Hi guys,
I have a problem, that from time to time my WM phone (Hermes) freezes and then I have to do a reset with the stylus and all the unread SMS that I´ve received in the meantime are gone..
Is there a way to prevent this, please? (e.g. a program that would automatically mark all incoming SMS as read so that the WindowsMobile system will actually store them even in case of a reset?)
Thanks for any help!
Pteropus.
nobody knows a solution..?
please..
please, help meee.. isn´t there a way to stop the unread sms-s from getting lost after restart..??
No idea.
I tried and mine works normally. I sent myself an SMS. I didn't open or read it when it arrived. I just left it unread in the inbox. I performed a soft reset using the stylus. When the device rebooted the SMS was still in the inbox showing as unread.
yeah but when the phone freezes it will delete.
it happens on my wing and on my old excalibur.
exactly
thanks for your replies..
so what can be done? i am thinking of a soft that would either keep the unread sms in its own memory on the memory card or a soft that would save it right away as read.. it is such a bummer, it´s a feature of Windows Mobile but I am wondering why this doesn´t bother anyone else...
Yes believe me this is a major pain in the a#@*! Has happened to me quite a few times and even made me miss an important appointment once...
I take it that this is simply a "feature" of the system but it could be down to a rogue program somewhere. Not for me to say anything of course but some of the third party programs available do seem to make my machine freeze more than most. Remove them and it works ok for long periods.
Funny that...
same here
that is the same source of madness for me.. last week I got an SMS from a horny girlfriend but the phone froze, sms is gone and she says that she will not say what was in it, beacuse she is ashamed how open it was and wants to play a dame now.. aaaargh....
I searched the forum and saw this question being asked a couple of times, but no definate answers....
Running Dr Gonzo's WM6.1 and the contacts are not displaying. They are there, as they do display when pressing the green button to dial. How to rectify this?
Thanks
Are your contacts saved to SIM? As far as I recall, SIM contacts are hidden by default in the WM6.1 Gonzo ROM. You can enable it or better yet, save your contacts to memory so you can store more contact fields.
No it's contacts stored on the phone (restored with PIMBackup). I reflashed again and then they appear, but after a while (and setting up phone) they disappear again. Very strange indeed.
I had the same problem a couple of times - WM6.0 Neo rom - When the contacts dissappeared the phone was also running very slow - I did a hard reset and restored a backup from the day before and it was ok again.
It been ok now for a couple of weeks, so a mystery as to what happened.
As far as I can remember on both ocasions I was looking at a contact, when the phone rang. After I had taken the call I noticed I could not see the contacts - but they were still visible with the green button - maybe something got corrupted?
I've had the problem before, I just replaced the battery with a spare that I had and charged the battery and all was fine. I was running WM 6 at the time can not remember if it was the official HTC WM 6 update ROM that added extra features that the shippedROM did not have or wether it was Gonzos New Guava WM 6 ROM though.

Hello guys,
I have an iPAQ 914c with a strange problem.
I text the same contact all through out the day, and occasionally I get complaints that I'm sending the same message multiple times.
It turns out it'll be a message that I sent a day previous that comes back and decides to re-send itself 4-5 times for no apparent reason, It's definatly not a network problem, because it was Happening on Orange UK, and now I'm on T-Mobile UK and its still happening.
I really think its a software problem with windows mobile 6.1 on the device. I've done a hard-reset twice and still get the same problem. I have the latest ROM, which was on the phone stock. I havnt gone to the hassle of Re-flashing the ROM since Its the latest, and theres no other ROMS around to test.
What do you guys think? I've only had the phone a couple of weeks and I love it, but having a bug really drives me insane!
I had a similar problem and this is what I found out.
If you send a message and it doesn't go through (network errors, you get another text or call simultaneously, etc.) it remains in your outbox (or drafts can't remember which one). When you do a soft reset (even days later), windows mobile immediately sends those unsendable texts.
Fix:
Delete items from your drafts and/or outbox folder before doing a soft reset.
after use of 2-3 days when I have atleast 100 unique sms threads, when I type a line, (usually fast), characters appear very late. I don't know why is it so?
I need a fix to this and I dun wanan opt out for WM5 again coz I love threaded SMS feature. Even turning to normal view didnt help me. Even after i emptied my inbox :/
I installed nothing. Its just same stock rom as it was installed on my Phone (Tomal 7.0 through 8.5, rdosti's roms, thingonaspring's). Tomal's 7.1 stayed longest on my phone but I really got annoyed of the SMS writing lag.
Can anyone propose a fix? through another ROM / software / reg tweak?
