i got a new touch pro, this is my second one. I always use sms in threaded format. The problem is on the phone, i have to enter and leave a conversation to erase each new txt. (example, I wil be in a convo with someone, after we go back and forth 5 times and i leave the convo, it still shows 4 new messages and i have to open and leave the convo 4 more times to erase them). It seems like the phone is marking the txts read as if i am in standard txt mode (must read each individual txt).
My old touch pro did not do this. I have been through the registry for countless hours now and i cannot for the life of me figure this out. I also did a hard reset...still does it. What am i over looking, this is driving me crazy.
Let me know if you cant follow my rant i will try to better explain it. Much thanks for any help.
same problem
i've searched all over the internet for a solution in this matter and cannot find anything!
except for a forum that users say a program worked but i cannot download because an administrator has to approve your account to see files.
so please if you know how to fix this let us know. ty very much!!
ps this isn't the problem where all messages deleted and still says 1 . its when u receive more than one message from same user in the same threaded txt message. you have to go out and come back in the thread to get rid of each unread message.

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....
Ok so I just bought a TP2, originally a Verizon phone, fully flashed over to Cricket. Not sure what ROM or whatever is on it (if anyone can tell me how to find out, I would be happy to check). I used PimBackup on my TP1 to get all my contacts, and old text messages; went ahead and used PimBackup on the TP2 and had Pim erase the old contacts/messages before putting my stuff on. After it was done transfering all the messages and what not, it said I had 2 unread text messages, but when I checked, everything in the inbox was read. I clicked on where you can select outbox, sent, email, etc. and the number 2 in paranthesees is next to my text message inbox, indicating that the 2 unread messages are in there. Any idea how to fix this? Or something I need to do. I'm gonna go lay down right now and delete some of the messages I don't need, hopefully figure this out. Thanks for any input or info you have on this issue. I tried searching, but yielded nothing (I dont really know what to look for). Thanks again, and in advance!
unzip and place .exe on phone. Then run the .exe using a file explorer.
sweet! it worked! thanks. i just ran the exe, soft reset, opened my messages, and when i went back out the number 2 went away. THANKS! i appreciate it.
I always have a 1 indication on my messages even though there is no new message. it goes away when i delete all messages but it returns + the true number of new messages when as they come in. it also shows up in the windows messaging as 1 new in inbox even though there is not. I have soft reset and cannot find a way to erase the damn thing. Anyone else have this issue or know how to help?
Just go to the mail tab click on one of the mail then click the menu option the click on the Inbox. From the Inbox it has several acct. just go thought them and form the mail you haven't read or delete.
it seems to be a winmo issue, i have gone into the registry and deleted the count and it returns, I have no unread anything anywhere and dont even have any messages at all but it always says "Inbox (1)" no matter what...
then try this cab put that in the window reg.
what does it do?
it replaces the internal massages to zero. I got this zip file few weeks ago when I having same issue.
u sure u sent me the correct file, thats not a cab nor is there a cab in the zip file, its a dll...
in any case the .dll does nothing for my problem...

there are posts everywhere, do a search on google if this one doesnt work
worked like a charm, thank you, i must have been mistaken when i thought it was a winmo 6.5 issue because thats when it first happend so thats what i was searching for. Thanks again, awesome little program...
[Q] I received a text message from a single digit number "1"... What the heck?
The message is still in my Samsung Galaxy S2 inbox and contains this:
message size:32kb
expires: 9:04PM, Oct 25
Download
where "Download" is a clickable button and when I click it it changes to "Downloading", then after a few moments it changes back to "Download".
Any idea what it might be?
So you downloaded unknown software from a suspicious number onto your phone because it told you to?
Ummm... Quickly You need to pm me your bank account details and any applicable passwords plus personal identification information. If someone is going to scam you and get all your stuff it should be me, at least im honest about it, plus you have to now cause I asked you to.
Yeah, but nothing happened after, android didn't prompt me to install anything. Is it possible that it installed by itself? And how can such a message arrive to me anyway? Do you think its from an installed app??
My phone is 100% stock and not rooted. What in the heck is this? If its THAT easy to get a security hole, then that makes the market a scary place!

Whats the file name? go to where your phone stores downloads and find out. if nothing is there check running applications. Is anything running that shouldn't have been. can you provide a screenshot of the text message?
I'm shocked that you presses download, not knowing where the message came from. Were you THAT curious?
I hope nothing is going to happen to your device, but in the future, you might want to ask first before pressing anything.
Sorry I couldn't really contribute anything helpful to this thread, but I couldn't resist.

I just received a txt from the number '1' also.
Subject: its time
Message size: 12Kb
I use handcent and it is set to auto retrieve mms. It said downloading for quite some time then I deleted it and blocked the number.

You're Fine
I think you're fine. I just recieved a similar message from 1. I think it was someone 'replying all' to a mass text because a second later that message from 1 disappeared and was replaced by an actual text. PS, I'm not an expert.

You might be right. Turns out my girlfriend sent a mass text and I was on the list. I ended up getting several more that day. None of which would auto download.

highly avoid
I would highly advise to stay away from and advise you to not download any type of text message that comes to you from an unknown phisher or source.
same issue sorta
see i have been getting texts like this myself it started just yesterday when a friend said he would send me a video of something (mms video) and so i never got it but instead a number listed as 1 had sent a message with no subject it was a download. i asked my friend to send again and it went through to his number instead just fine (hes using an iphone) so i just deleted the conversation with the number 1 and moved on but then my girlfriend sent a video to me and the same thing happened. im curious if its an error having to do wth the sending of video or if its something more concerning. (my girlfriend is on android) the whole thing here is taht they where sending me a video and that i got a message that i could download supposedly a video using the number 1 instead of from the person who said they where sending something(its concerning
Well that was rude. Way to be a ****
I've gotten that text message twice on two different phones and my phone auto magically started downloading? My phone is fine after every time but it's just so weird to me my recent message sent to me and then dissapeared
First off, I'd like to thank whoever takes the time to read and put any thought into this. Next, the reason I absolutely do not want to do anything that is going to erase/lose my SMS history; I'm an auto mechanic, and there is far too much various information on customers' vehicles, repair history and such...losing it all would be a huge setback. If I have to do something like a factory reset, I'm going to have to spend too many hours to even think about, manually going through 4 years of text messages to record everything. I tried a couple of options to backup said history, and nothing came up with even 100 messages to backup.
On to the problem... When SMS is received from person A, it shows up in a random, different person's(person B) thread. I then need to check the contact info to the left of the message to see who person A is, then back out, go to to person A's thread and respond there. If I respond in the thread that it's delivered to, person B gets the response. Any messages in the thread prior to this starting shows the proper contact, person B. Looking at message details, it shows the correct # in the 'From' section, but for 'To', it shows my number and the number for person B as if it was sent as a group text. This however is not the case...the message only comes to me.
I have tried deleting and reentering contacts, doing the same while the involved threads are archived, visaversa...and I haven't found any solutions. I'm very hesitant to even do a simple restart, as a couple of instances like mine that I've read, all SMS history vanished after rebooting. Any thoughts, ideas, or help of any kind would be amazing...and once again, thanks for taking the time.
Edit:The phone in question is a Moto G7 Optimo Maxx(XT1955DL) running stock Android 9, in case this info helps/makes a difference.
