this is copy of my post in the "question" thread. noone replied and it is a serious problem. i am sure i am not the only one also.
Hi i'm using EnergyROM 'Phoenix 2' (21877) ★|Nov 27|Manila 2.1
But! with every single ROM including stock ATT Fuze ROM i had this issue, and finally i cant take it anymore. Also i had phone replaced 2 times ( physical damage). So its not hardware issue or ROM, its Windows Mobile seems like... How can I fix it?
While in regular windows threaded sms application, finishing up conversation and hitting 'x' to go back to all messages view will cause a phone to freeze for up to 4 minutes, 9 times out of 10. It will freeze up the phone. The only solution, if i dont want to wait, is to hold answer button to open task manager and kill the sms process.
it is extremely aggravating, i think you can see that in my post.... Please does anyone have a solution? i tried searching
Ok... i might be completely wrong on this (i hate threaded sms, so turn it off!) but i've read before that the sms app can take some time to process the threading. This was noted & commented on after restoring a backup, not in general use. If you have lots of messages, it might be worth simply allowing the sms app to do its thing for 20 mins when you're not trying to use anything, and seeing if it makes any difference.
If not, sorry - i'm out of ideas.

I am in Baltimore Maryland... Ever since i upgraded to jf's rc33 firmware, i get aloooooooooot of " undelivered message" notifications. This never used to happen to me, maybe once a week with 2 messages. In most cases people ask me why the F am i triple texting, and it happens when i try to resend the messages and the phone keeps saying "message cannot be delivered". Is anyone else experiencing this? In maryland only perhaps?
I have tried keeping message count below 100, reseting the phone seems to be the only quick fix. One other thing, when i try to make phonecalls every now and then, the **** just hangs up as soon as the call is placed and when i receive a call sometimes and i press the answer key, it takes about 10 seconds to answer and continues to ring. suggestions buddys?
Make sure you delete your SMS threads if they get too long. Typically once threads get past 150 they are slow and take a while to open. If you are using the stock sms try chomp seems to handle threads better. I have JFRC33 and have not issues.
My wife and I have the exact same problem with the phone hanging up and not picking up a call for while. And dropped calls - almost always. And we live in the heart of Dallas.
yea the g1 is a nice phone, but either android or t-mobile blows..
every now and then people call me, and i get a missed call, but the phone never rings,
and sometimes when i call people, they pick up but one of us cant hear the other,
and sometimes, the g1 will ring, but when i press the green button to anwser, the phone continues to ring
im getting pissed off,
rc29, rc33 both fail to work
I am in Baltimore as well, and I have JF1.42 RC33, without any of the problems you have. Sorry, can't be of more assistance, but maybe your SIM card is old and needs to be replaced? I have heard of them causing issues sometimes.
yup same thing is happening to my phone. it is really starting to piss me off. i thought it was cuz i dropped my phone but i guess others have been getting the same thing. i hope theres a fix for this
I had this happen to me about two days ago. SMS failed to send to anyone. I restarted the phone and havent had a problem since. They are still developing this unit, so try to be patient.
i've had some calling issues recently, both making and receiving.
sometimes when receiving a call, i'll pick up and my phone will reboot, and take absolutely ages to boot up. and when making calls the other end will sometimes go completely dead and it's the same for the other person.
only happens very occasionally but it's happened with a few landline calls and different mobile networks. only been since RC33 too. not saying it's related but it is kinda annoying.
Wipe fixes all
unless the problem's firmware/hardware related, then it does **** all.
Wipe and wait
Could be too many apps eating memory on the G1 and/or buggy apps crashing buggy android. The best you can do is download mybackup from market, back up all data +sms+ageda etc, Wipe the phone. An dont install a single app from the market in 1-3 days and see if problems dissapear.
Personally, i never install any app who claims to "start at boot" Never. MyBackup is one of them and always delete it after backup. i may be wrong but i thing resident in memory apps and apps who starts at boot degrades performance over time, because many of them are buggy so i avoid using them. Well my phone runs fine with this.
buggy behavior
well i think this happen when phone memory is full, try to delete least used applications, clear applications cache like browser and youtube , then do a reset.
Ive had the issue more than a few times where the phone will start ringing but the screen will stay dark, i wait until it turns on to see who is calling after a few rings and then it wont respond to pressing the answer button unless i press it a few times, and even then it takes its sweet time answering. Ive dropped plenty of calls due to this, and yes it has only started happening after the radio firmware/RC33 update.

Oh... don't even start my on "MyBackup"... I kept trying to figure out why my phone was lagged so much when I was going back to home screen. Uninstalled apps that were running all the time one by one. MyBackup and Phonebook were 2 biggest memory hogs. Phone runs oh so smooth after I unistalled those 2. Backgrounds app still autostarts for some reason but I like that app too much to uninstall and it does not cause as many problems.

I still have this problem after another wipe..
why does android suck...
i wish tmo would come out with a winmo 3g phone, so much more stable and with more features =(.. i miss my shadow now
I started running into the issue of the phone not actually responding to the "answer call" button, but found it was only happening when I had auto-rotate set up with the DroidSans tools and the display had been rotated to landscape. It seemed like it would start trying to switch to portrait, then lock itself up long enough for the call to go to voicemail, then flip to portrait and be responsive again. I haven't had the problem since I disabled auto-rotate.
However, on the "too many apps" thing, I've suddenly started noticing that my phone will start a good 15-20 apps on startup, including things like AK Notepad. I didn't notice if this was something that started with RC33 or if I've done something else to make this happen...does this happen with anyone else?
I have had a similar issue with my g1 dropping calls and will sometimes see a force close while on a call as well. I did a wipe and did not enable auto rotation and so far it seems to be running more smoothly.
Been there done that...I am having the same issues and it is beginning to drive me nuts. I make heavy heavy use of my phone on a daily basis. Dropping calls where they just go to la la land...or the phone rings and I cannot answer for about 10 to 15 seconds, the phone just reboots for no reason... stupid things like that. I have RC33 rooted, radio upgraded with JF 1.41 and this has been happening daily about 3 times or so a day. I love my G1 and I have a hard time parting with it...I am trying to be patient while it develops but...I am about to go get the 8900 curve...
I forgot to mention...I had to do a wipe on my phone also due to a problem with the accelerameter and that did not help this issue either.

it seems to me that it is tmob related, since i`ve had that b4 on my lil nokia phone.
I'm using the HTC Diamond. But I thought I'll put this in the General problem as this might not only apply to the TD.
Today I received an sms and I couldn't get into the message to read it, so I decided to turn off my phone, and turn it back on again – I did the soft reset (pressing the power button on the top of the phone and not the instant soft reset button). I have done this before and it worked after that.
However, after I turned on the phone again today, the smses I received and sent since 23/07/2009 have disappeared.
I also checked the most recent call history and it's there – so it's not as if the phone decided to backdate itself.
Has this happened to anyone else? I would like to retrieve those missing smses (at least the ones I received) if I could. Is there a particular directory that the phone stores these smses?
Help would be much appreciated!
this happens to me also
but thats when its not THREADED
when i have THREADED sms's they dont disappear

Mine aren't threaded either.
I can understand if it decided to delete today's or even yesterday's messages, since it takes a while for the messages to be saved onto the rom.
But I can't figure out why it deleted messages up to 2 weeks ago.
And did you have any way to retrieve the missing smses?
Since I've updated my phone to WM 6.5, I have an issue where frequently I will have to press the power button several times for it to exit sleep mode, and sometimes it will not exit sleep mode and I have to power cycle the phone.
Another issue I have, even more annoying than the former, is when I open my sms messages (via selecting all messages, not using the touch flo sms thing), and open a specific message, when I send a message and exit the message, most of the time it will freeze for about a minute and I can't do anything on my phone until it has finished thinking or whatever.
Any thoughts on how to fix either of these issues?
This question has been asked several times in this forum; Long story short, try searching first before posting. And welcome to the club. Many people have this problem, there appears to be no clear answer why, and Slide to unlock SEEMS to cure the problem, at least for me.
Thanks, yeah sorry I actually didn't look for a solution first, just kinda slipped my mind. Normally I do, but thanks for the reminder.
its just something to do with the stock roms on these devices. so far i dont think anyone has came up with a solution. my Verizon TP2 did the same exact thing CONSTANTLY, the texting thing happened always directly after a soft reset. i think its just kinda unavoidable and the only solution would probably be to switch to another rom. my 2 cents
Hey Community,
I have Simplicity .04pre installed, and everything went fine. Except for the SMS times were messed up. So I searched a little, and found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15704045&postcount=167
In another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17427755&postcount=238) they said it is usable on JVR as well.
But after I installed it through recovery mode, it says "Cannot launch application" on my dochbar and the messaging App is not visible anymore in the app menu.
The Recovery didn't work. So yeah, right now I am without a SMS function, which kinda sucks
Do I have to flash simplicity again? (Which I try to avoid)
ANd I rather not use 3rd party applications for SMS I want the system one.
Any Ideas?
Slight push:
I reflashed Simplicity with a non-Wipe, but I still have the problem, that received SMS Time Stamps are off by 2-3 Minutes (When I searched fro the problem it was for 1 hour or 5 hours but never only some minutes).
So here is my question: Is there a way to fix it? I don't want to search for another ROM, because I like simplicity. But I hate the wrong order more (It puts my replies before the original SMS when I answer to fast)
Edit: Use "Time Stamp Fix" now, but well its an app, I'd rather see it fixed
Some times when Im viewing Text messages, they dont appear in order properly, Like I will send a text and it will be higher up and one I received before, as if I sent it before that, which clearly I didnt as it was a reply.
and when I restart my phone sometimes it will send a random text message that I sent ages ago to the last person I was texting which can confuse the other person.
anyone have these issues?
yeah i know what you are refferring to....download sms time fix from the market, enable it, and under adjustment method choose use phone's time
it use to happen to me all the time, still Happens to my wife all the time(she has mytouch 4g). the only time it happens to me or her is when we use third party SMS apps never on stock sms
Text out of order:
1-Do you have a third party sms app? ie: gosms pro, handcent?
It use to happen to me all the time but ever since I started keeping up with the amount of text in a single thread the problem does not happen any more what so ever. For example: text between me and my wife I don't let pass 150 text. Anyone else that I might speak to on a somewhat regular bases I don't let pass 30 and people I text once an a blue moon I erase a couple hours later after I'm done texting them. It does sound like a little work to keep up with but better to do it then scramble your **** up (at least for me). My wife never keeps up with her text like I do and like every 2 to 3 weeks it's starts glitching and doing all that you have said. It got so bad one time that she had to fully uninstall gosms pro them restart her phone cause stock was force closing.
2- to fix it just delete all threads and clear app cache and app settings, you do this by going to phone settings/applications/find app then clear all. If it still does not work then your going to have to uninstall your SMS client (which can be a ***** cause you tricked it out to your liking)
Old text resending after power cycle:
1- I ****ing hate when this happens. It usually happens to an old text that had problems sending and ether never sends and you leave it alone and/or after a minute the app tried again and it sends successfully. But still resends after power cycle.
2- the only way I have seen this problem not happen to much is if you just try to resend the text your self and/ or erase it from your text thread.
You don't have a third party SMS client and are using stock and experiencing these issues:
1- **** out of luck, can't help you there lol. Never happened to me. Suggest you restart your phone and/or clear cache and SMS settings
I hope you or anyone else can find this helpful. Thanks for reading at the very least

Agreed with the sms time fix. However, it doesn't always fix it... Still a pain once in a while. For what it's worth, I've always had this issue with HTC phones. For some reason, the timestamps just suck and for that reason among other reasons, HTC won't be my next phone. I somehow grew to love sense though
Never had the issue with my galaxy s, it doesnt normally do it often, but today its done it pretty much every text. hopefully this fixes it, do love my XE

Check your time settings..
I once had this kind of problem where all of my text (sent and received) does not appear at the bottom of the thread (where they should be). After some troubleshooting (restarting, re-installation of Go-SMS etc), problem was still existed. When I examining my phone, I found out that my time was reset back to 1970's and I remember that day that I detach my battery to my handset thus the time went back to the Jan 1 1970. So I revert the back the date to the current and my posting of message is back to normal.
