This has always been a problem for me whenever I update or change the rom on my phone, I just flashed the latest version of TAEL ROM to my Att Fuze, but this time I tried to research what I could possibly do to try to fix this annoying problem. I tried the guide posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420564
And it didn't work. By step 7 it looked like my phone was re-threading all of my text messages, took about 2-3 hours, but when I opened them up, it just had one side of the conversation yet again.
Is there anything I can do to re-thread my text messages AFTER restoring the backup?

i hate when my text messages get deleted and every time restart or shut my phone off my text messages for the past month or 2 get deleted... how do i fix this!!?
Please tell us what device, and which Rom you are using.
It's hard to tell what is wrong without the proper information.

He is using a tilt..Weird i used to have this problem with my mogul every once in a while where it would revert back to older texts as new and anyones i sent after them would be gone like they were never sent...Never found a solution... I just let it go figuring it was some weird glitch
i had this issue on my old kaiser with stock rom
but it was only day old texts
I just recently(about a week)purchased a brand new Inspire 4G and unlocked it for T-Mobile. I have not rooted it. I went through the set up and checked if there was any new software available. It informed me that 1.84.502.11 was availible for download. After the software downloaded and the phone reboot, everythings seemed fine, but when i opend the Sense UI and tried to update the weather I get this error message: "The connection dropped while your weather information was downloading. Try downloading again?"
Also for some reson every single SMS I've ever typed, even with my previous phones, are appearing in my messages as iff they were just typed. I keep going through and deleting them but they just pop back up. I've done a factory restart and every time they pop back up. so all day long i get message notifications from these messages typed MONTHS ago.
I'm getting kinds frustrated with this phone. Everything worked perfect untill I updated to 1.84.502.11. is there anyway to go back to what I had before?
You can search the development thread for the 1.80 base RUU. When you use the RUU it will restore your phone to a new out of the box condition, unrooted and wiped clean of course, so perform a back up.
Hi!
On my Nexus S (i9023) I'm having the problem, that wrong SMS are deleted.
This happens on stock ROM as well as on CM9.
In example I get a message from my voice-mail telling me that s.o. called me. I read the message, then tap and hold it to delete it. And what happens? An SMS above (i.e. 2 above) is deleted instead! If I delete it again, it works.
I really have lost lots of SMS this way... Anyone else who has this bug? And how can I work around that?
..
Have just tried it on my NS [i9020a] running the latest CM9 version and haven't got any issues with deleting the wrong SMS messages. Sorry that I can't be of more help.
I didn't try to delete complete threads yet, so I can't say.
Maybe it's because I always restore my old SMS using SBS Backup + after flashing a new ROM. Perhaps it messes up the SMS database?! So for now I've simply deleted all of my SMS and will see what happens.
This has happened to me once but I actually deleted a message only once .
I usually delete by thread.
i have newer version of captivate with gps fixed but few days ago it stopped sending text message although it can still receive text messages.
normally after sending message, it usually displays time stamp under the text but when it does not work it just displays "sending" as status indefinitely.
phone is rooted and has gingerbread i believe.
I also called customer center service and they did not see any issue from the point of service provider.
Anyone has experienced the issue? Thanks,
I'd have them check again to make sure that text is setup right on your account.
Beyond that what have you changed recently. Typically something like texting wont just stop working on the phone without something having been changed.
Is the ROM that's on there one you flashed? If so back it up, reflash to a clean state and see if text works. Then restore a bit at a time and see when it fails.

somebody also had this problem and he did a factory reset and he was able to send messages again but he is saying that he has lost his root although it's not possible
here is the link to thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540652
DID factory reset and now can send message. but cant root it back. crappy phone. tried from both of my laptop and desktop machine using odin v1.81. problem never gets around captivate.
Do the heimdall flash of KK4 or Apex ROM. Same as stock, but with root and all the problems gone.
Ever since the ICS upgrade, one contact's message thread refuses to open and is stuck on "O Loading" with that little circle revolving.
I downloaded go sms pro before and I was able to access his thread through that and the message count wasn't over the maximum limit per contact. I've since gone back to the stock app as he's out of the country and it's faster than go sms pro but he recently txted me and caused the problem to occur with other contacts (though a reset of the phone solves their issue)
Does anyone have a solution and failing that, advice? I should say right now that deleting his message thread is the last resort.

You could try to backup your messages (you can find some apps for that in the market), then delete all your contacts, and afterwards restore them again~
Though no idea if it will work :/

Aye I could try it with a contact whose messages I don't mind losing and seeing if that works, thanks for the tip!
You can also use Google Voice, and have it copy all the messages to your Gmail account.

So I started backing up and restoring and I was able to open all contacts' threads. The backup never fully restores all messages though and I have to keep hitting "restore" so that it'll restore them all up to the present day. Don't know why it's doing it this way.
Just now I've checked and that one contact won't open again. What I might do is try and restore all to the present, delete loads of messages I don't want, and backup this new message history.
I know this is most likely far too late but I was having the same problems and found this thread while trying to sort it and hope it will help anyone else in future who has the same problems. I tried backing up and restoring (Using both the default and sms back-up and restore) deleting the thread and restoring, eventually I solved it by installing handscent, deleting the messages sent/received back to when the problem started in that thread and a few before, then went in settings, apps, then all, messages cleared the cache, restarted and it is sorted!!

Yeah it never resolved itself but I love the customisation of go sms pro so much that I don't mind anymore. Pity go sms pro crashes every so often and I think it slows the phone down.
I was going to start a new thread but see that this is the same problem I have.
I have a mt4gs (Doubleshot) and the problem described in this thread has happened twice. Both times i was receiving a text message and did something else with the phone at the same moment, and it seems to have jammed up the receipt of that text. The first time, i sent a text to the person at the same moment i received one. The second time, i locked the screen at the moment one arrived. Now that thread never loads, and loading other threads or contacts takes much longer than it should. In fact, i don't think contacts would ever load if i were willing to wait forever.
The first time I backed up the texts, reset the device, and restored, and everything worked fine, but that's a really time-consuming process and it seems like a ridiculous workaround for some broken buffer or queue in Android messaging.
It seems that there must be a direct fix for this. If it's easy enough to break messaging that it has happened to me twice, it must be a fairly common problem. But a search has turned up nothing but people saying there are too many messages or to use an alternative app for messaging. That's (1) incorrect and (2) again an ugly workaround for a problem with core functionality.
