sms messages differs if sent in a nokia fon - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

just would like to ask if anyone has experienced receiving SMS messages received via XDA IIs is of different format from that of how it is received in nokia fons?
What happens is that a multi-lined SMS in a nokia screen, when received thru the XDA will appear as if the SMS was written in a single sentence without spaces in between the words.
could anybody direct me on how to fix this? or is there any software I need to install for this to be fixed?
cheers!

Never experienced that myself.
WHat I *have* found, though, is that any carriage returns (new line) you send from the XDA gets ignored by other phones
The problem I've found is that autocorrect uses a different apostrophe character. ` as opposed to ', and most phones show a 'no character' box in the word.
If you are thinking of ASCII arts, the problem is very simple..
They are made WITHOUT carriage return..
Nokia displays from the 51xx series and newer all had a maximum of 14 characters, and 4 rows of text.
The nokia scrolls through the message by showing lines 1-4, 5-8, 9-12 and so on..
Now, many of the people who made these ASCII arts didn't think of compability at all.. They could use X number of spaces to fill a line, instead of using carriage return, or simply use many characters..
These people are idiots!
So the text
8888888888888888888XXX88888888888XXX88888888888888888888
sendt to a Nokia phone would be displayed like this:
88888888888888
88888XXX888888
88888XXX888888
88888888888888
But on our beloved XDA devices, wich have a few more characters than 14 per line, you get
8888XXXXX88888888888X888888888888X888888888888XXXXX88888
On the other hand, if the message was made like this:
8888XXXXX88888[RETURN]888888X8888888[RETURN]88888X88888888[RETURN]8888XXXXX88888
You would get
8888XXXXX88888
888888X8888888
88888X88888888
8888XXXXX88888
On both Nokia and XDA..
Don't know if this is what you were thinking of, but it felt good to say that they are idiots!
thanks bonzo! that really explains it! i think since this is a compatibility issue between nokia and XDAs so it would just be an added problem if we have a third party software installed on this since we receive sms messages from different mobile phone manufacturers.
cheers!

Problem with some sms not ariving

Hi there
For a while nowI've been experiencing problems with text messages not arriving, but they do end up in my sent items.
There is no real pattern to which messages do and do not arrive at the cellphone I'm sending them too, although I do notice that it ussualy are longer messages (i.e. a couple of lines of text instead of just 1 or 2).
I've tried 5 or 6 different roms in the last couple of weeks but I have the same problem with each of them so it is not the rom.
I've read somewhere that too much reflasig of your device can cause strange problems could this be what I'm experiencing? any help would be very much appreciated!
ive noticed this too! usually its quite a large text, along 3 sms amounts in one go. the recipent doesnt recieve the text but it is in my sent items. i didnt know whether it was the rom i was using , my operator or even a hardware issue but i know its damn annoying when sending important messages.
im on O2, which provider are you with?
I'm also on O2 and have occaisionally had this problem on my diamond, atom life and wizard. The way to avoid it seems to be....
1. Use Advance Config to turn on both Message Sent and Delivery notifications
2. When sending a message DO NOT close the messaging app until the notifications have been received. (if the message is more than one SMS long you will get multiple notifications)
For some reason, if you close the app too quickly, the message fails.
I'm on Vodafone NL
Thanx for the replies, I'll try your suggestions! hope it works, it's really irritating not knowing if my GF received my sms

[Q] SMS bug issue

Hi,
Im having a bug issue with my stock SMS application.
Sometimes, when I send an SMS to Mr. A, the message goes to Mr. B.
Quite often that when I get a new SMS, when I tap on the SMS app to go to all the message conversations, then tap on the threaded message which has the new message, but it switches to a different recipient.
Anyone here experiencing the same issue?
Any advice?
Thanks,
D
stupid Android SMS Bug
it's finally happened.
Yesterday, I sent quite a sexual content text message to my girlfriend, BUT my employee received it.
The text I sent to my girlfriend showed up on the conversation between me & my gf, but she did not received it. However my employee received it.
How freaking annoying.
I have contacted HTC & am waiting for the answer. I bet you that the answer is: please hard reset your phone.

It's a known bug. I don't know if its solved if you flash a custom rom. Maybe try a different sms app?

[BUG?] Batch SMS sending after reboot...anyone?

I know, this is my third open topic on a different issue...:-\
Ever since I got my phone, everytime it reboots it sends a batch of previously sent messages to a few contacts. The messages that are being sent did indeed go through when initially sent, however the cases that the phone selects a few recent contacts and sends a batch of sms messages again. T mobile is no help, I know xda is
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
I'm having the exact same problems. I've noticed some messages say "sending" even though they've already been sent and received by the other person. Once I reboot, those messages get resent.
I've searched but haven't found anything
I fixed it by uninstalling SMS Popup. If you have that installed I recommend removing it.
i use Go SMS, and i can send the a whole load of friends at the same time without any crash

Group messaging problem

Hi everyone,
When I try to send sms to a group, the below mentioned warning keeps on popping and asks for permission for each and every person in the group,
"Messaging is sending a large amount of messages, do you want this app to allow sending messages"
I want the sms to be sent individually to each person in the group
I have checked all the app settings and permissions but of no use. Tried other apps like next sms, textra, yaata, but same issue with all.
Never faced this issue in my previously held htc m8.
Anyone else facing this issue and any possible solutions??
