Hi,
This may have been asked before but I cannot find an answer to this on these forums.
I'm using windows mobile 6.5 (recently updated to the 'official' 2.53 rom) on an HTC touch diamond 2.
Whenever I get an SMS from someone (say 'bob') I've previously had an SMS from, when I click in the new messages icon, it does not show the new message. It stays on the previous message from bob, and I have to scroll up to view the new message. Very irritating.... and especially bad if there have been other messages (from different people) between the last message from bob and the most recent one. I guess this is a problem with the 'conversation' threading.
I can't believe HTC broke this, something so fundamentally straight forward. If anyone understands what I'm describing, maybe there is a registry tweak you are aware of which fixes this? However I've seen a few comments in these forums that the HTC messaging is quite crappy, so I'm not holding my breath...
Thanks in advance

Hello xda community and thank you for your help in advance!
I have a Sprint HTC Touch Pro, running WM 6.1, stock rom. Couple of questions:
1. i've been hunting for an instant messenging client that would pop up a notification icon (like blackberry messenger does on the berry) when there's a new IM; reveal the time of the msg when you roll cursor over msg in the msging pane (again like bbm), and preferably, also include the msg in your inbox until you open it (again like bbm... see a pattern here? haha.) any thoughts, please? i've tried the stock program with wm, as well as palringo, and fring. none of them do these. and i keep missing IMs. sigh.
2. i uninstalled palringo because it didn't do what i needed. however, even though the files and icons seem to have gone, when i power up the phone i get a msg that palringo.exe cannot be found. and it sl-o-o-o-ows the startup. is that just because of a registry key? could you please guide me on the best way to fix? thanks!
I've tried searching but I can't find an answer to this for the HD2.
Is there a way of limiting the number of messages displayed in an SMS conversation's history? I'm having to wait a good 10 seconds for all the past texts of some contacts to load before I can start to type, which is obviously extremely annoying. Limiting the amount it displays to 20 or so would be absolutely fine.
Anyone have any ideas?
This is a good idea, at the moment I am trying to keep on top of my messages by deleting older ones. I find it very strange that there is such a huge delay when there are loads of messages in a conversation. Whats the 1ghz processor doing? Having a tea break?
Oh ? I thought I was the only one who suffured of the loading speed in the SMS history.
On my last and beloved Cruise, the history was splitting in a few pages.
Someone know how to make it the same way ?
A solution for this would be nice!
Yes ! Perhaps we should try to post it in general XDA forum ?
Would like this also, now I'm using the old message view again (not threaded) because the other one is way to slow
I need this too...
Please, find a way to split threaded sms like in old TF3D!!!!
I hope HTC knows about this problem and will release a fix! Just write HTC about it...the more the merrier!
correct! Please report it to HTC so that they will fix this.
For the moment you can use this "workaround":
Open the inbox for this contact and try immadiately to hit the "send" button and answer the question "...really want to send an empty message.." witn "no"....that's it.
the keyboard is directly available and you can answer
i wonder if its possibly something to do with the small thumbnail images on every message thats slowing it down????? maybe removing these may make a difference, anybody know how to do that though?? lol
I've tried it and that has no effect on the speed

booo! lol i`v reduced the text size to smallest and that seems to have helped a bit, i havent got many messages right now i`l know soon if it really makes an impact when i dont delete my messages.
forget that comment above dont think it makes a blind bit of difference lol

Just click
All Messages > Menu > Settings > Traditional Mode
The traditional mode separate the sent messages and the received messages.
But if one has lot of messages from the same contact, this will still be slow.
Solution
My solution for this problem is that once a day a sync with windows my phone and archive the old messages there or save old messages with jeyo mobile companion, thus leaving in the phone a minimum amount of messages. until HTC solves the problem this works for me
I'm archiving old messages on MS MyPhone too for the time being. An acceptable workaround for me for the time being.

I searched all through the new tael rom thread and was unable to find a solution to my problem.
I love the look of sense 2.5 but I am having two issues with text messaging.
One, If I am on the text messaging tab and create a new message It doesn't auto fill the recipient name and doesn't seem to grab any info from my contact list. If I select add receipient it takes me to a blank search people field with none of my contacts listed. The only way I can send a text message is to go phone>contacts>send msg or reply to one that is sent to me.
Two, when I am in landscape mode trying to reply to an sms the send button is off the screen. This I can live with as I know not everything has been ported over the VGA but the first complaint is really an issue.
Thanks in advance.

1. Texting is weird and a pain. This is due to the new, stupid, built in htc messaging app Jataayu made for HTC. Unfortunately it's a necessary evil with Manila 2.5. Either use the 'disable' cab found in this thread to disable it and use the built in WinMo pocket outlook to SMS (ink in post #1) or use Pyrorob's Contact Picker and Shared Resource CABs.

have you tryed the sms hotfix from the htc support page? or in advanced network in all settings/connections try setting the sms service to gsm rather than gsm preferred. and also apply the 1.48 rom update also from the htc support site. had the same problem and it was gone afther dooing so.
it seems that is a common problem..i got it too and it's not related to a specific rom or phone carrier because i got the 1.408.401 ITA but i know people with a older ROM with the same issue..
and btw when the sms stop workin' it seems that also windows live (messenger + hotmail) and the weather (only the gps assisted) stop workin'.. at least this happen to me and other people..
same sms problems
my rom was made on 11/09/2009 which meant its version 1.48.707.2
any suggestions of fixing this sms problem? which rom hotfix would best fit?
See the 60+ page thread in the general section ;-) HTC are working on it.
This sounds like what i had. for no apparent reason the phone decided to keep all messages in the outbox (viewable via classic sms display). sending sms messages in different ways somehow unclogged the outbox and all messages were sent.
i did have to bother someone with a test message, unfortunately
sorry i can't be specific. dutch button names wouldn't be much help . the sms tab has a conversation view and a traditional view. switch between those to get the option to see the outbox.
different ways of sending text messages are via the contact display, from the conversation view and just clicking the 'new message' button while in conversation view. somehow these roads to the same function work quite different.

could you tell me where... I saw htc.com but there is just the old one
I have installed Freberrys rom nomess version, which includes htc sense but not htc messaging. It uses the old style off messaging, I dont mind atleast i can send messages without worrying if they have sent. I can confirm with this rom for me the issue has gone.

Hi guys, I had a HTC S710 running windows mobile 6.1 - that you guys hacked (New phone comming soon - S710 broke:-() and I wondered if you could make a few things clear for me?:
Firstly, I set up my hotmail and a few other email accounts, and ever since when I went the reply in threaded text I got two error messages, one of which saying "This account is encrypted. Please try again on a different account..." (Something like that - definatly to do with emailing but its been along time I can't remember exactly!), and the only way I could text is too read it then go back to contacts and send from there! Is this a common problem/has anyone else had this? Is there a fix?
Secondly, my new phone will be running windows mobile 6.5 and I just wondered if the same thing will happen on that. If it will is there a fix on WM6.5?
Now, I like threaded messaging but if there is absolutly no other fix, I dont mind living with out it!
Thanls
