i posted this on another forum, but no one could help me, im hoping maybe someone here can help..
i just upgraded with
RUU_PPST_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_3.03.651.2_Radio_3.42.30 _AM_NV_2.04_Ship.exe
now, whenever i soft reset, i lose text messages. this only recently started happening. i had tons of messages in my inbox, had to soft reset.. only about 75 were left... texted some more, soft reset.. only those 75 were there. that was with a custom rom, so i just flashed with the exe above, and its doing the same thing.. i text myself my number and it came thru and i coulud see both in the message window, but soft reset and they were gone.. texted the word 'yeah', soft reset, it was there.. so i thought it was fixed, but text again, soft reset, only the 'yeah' text was there.. so now thats what it keeps defaulting to when i soft reset.. why is this doing this??
What carrier do you have, that PPST is for Sprint only.
yeah i have sprint
I have the Sprint Touch with the newest rom you listed, and I definitely do not have that issue.
I have approx. 400 texts that I backed up and imported when I initially did the rom upgrade. Since then I have soft reset a few times and haven't seen any texts deleted. Now that they are threaded, to see the really old messages, I have to select Older.. Older.. etc but they all show up eventually.

OMG i thought i was the only one too!! i have this issue and it is really annoying. I dont know why my messages disappears and get deleted either.
i somewhat wish i didnt do this upgrade.
I have the new rom. (errr not the one that just came out today.)
Whenever I soft reset my phone any text messages I get within I dunno half hour hour don't appear when my phone boots back up.
If I have any email in my inbox that I've recently changed from unread to read revert back to an unread status as well.
for now, i've disabled the threaded SMS option and it seems to at least limit the messages deleted.
SMSInboxThreadingDisabled = 0
I have had this problem on several ROMs... If you soft-reset after getting a message, or sending one, you will lose it... depending on how long you wait...
Solution: Wait about an hour before soft-resetting after using any messaging... you will even lose emails... pretty nasty..
Another threaded SMS problem...
On my Touch/Vogue, I recently upgraded with the "official" Sprint WM6.1 ROM. I believe I've hit a solid bug... In the threaded SMS page, Menu>Tools>Clear "Text Messages" is used to delete all SMS. In this new ROM, the colored wheel appears but then never clears the screen -- it just sits there. Luckily nothing really bad happens, and it appears that the clear function actually works (all SMS seem to be deleted), but its just that the screen never updates. The original 6.0 ROM doesn't have this problem (but of course isn't threaded)...

Depending on how many messages you have, this can take A VERY LONG TIME...
it takes about 1-3 seconds per message... sometimes

Same issue here with dcd's newest ROMs. Almost like a human concussion. If the messages are relatively new (short term memory), they get erased after a soft reset. If they've been there for a while (long term memory), they remain after the reset.
Im having text messages arrive 10mins to 1hour late
this also happens to me. extremely annoying. props to anyone who can fix it.

i ditto that. i too have the same issue with the new ROM. really annoying.
I have found that if i close the messaging app and wait a minute or two i can soft reset and keep my messages.

Yes it is. The reason i mentioned closing the app before soft reset is because that will enable you to NOT lose any new messages that come in.
It was mentioned to wait up to an hour, that is not practical most of the time and is unnecessary if you close the app first and wait a minute before reset.

You're wrong. Closing the app does not prevent messages from being erased. You still have to wait.
I am having the same problem and it is VERY ANNOYING and I have lost important data!!! I lose both email and SMS. Does the official, non leaked version have this problem?
yes, the all do have this problem.
Hi all
I'm opening a new thread about this issue as I can't find any solution to this problem anywhere else (and most threads seems to be cluttered with less valuable info).
Yesterday I got an SMS which I read right away and replied to some seconds later. When I pressed "Send" from the TouchFLO-SMS app. my phone stopped responding. I was waiting for a few minutes to see if it came back to life, but to no avail. I did a soft reset and everything seemed fine, except I had one unread message according to TouchFLO and the standard WM messaging app. I've tried every solution I could find on the forums, like: disabled threaded messaging to look for unread messages, read all of them anyway, installed the "Mark all as unread" (SafeInboxExtender) and even tried to replace the file "htmlnote.dll", but that isn't possible. I can't rename, copy or replace the file (tried "all" file explorers I can come by).
I don't know why this happens, but I know that a lot of people at my work have the same problem with the same phone (and other 6.1-phones).
Hard reset is not an option any way you put it..
Hoping to find a final solution to this issue (or else I'll go back to my Nokia with Series 60 as usual - it's flawless, but not so nice..)
Have you tried backing up your texts to Microsoft's My Phone service?
I can't offer a solution to your problem, but if you have a backup you can do more drastic things like deleting all your texts. The worst that will happen if you sync to My Phone again is that the SMS that you've deleted on your phone will be archived.
I've solved it now. After numerous attempts with FixUnread and soft-resets it worked

do u have the cab for the fix unread?
I have the T-Mobile TP/2. I've had it since the release, and haven't added anything to the phone. I was having the issue where on the TouchFlo 3D it says I have a message. T-Mobile told me to hard-reset my phone, it worked for a little bit and the problem continued. They ended up sending me a new phone, and again I haven't downloaded any .cab's or anything like that, pretty much just a "stock" phone; the problem has came back, saying I have a message when I don't. I completely deleted all my messages in my MMS folder and went to Tools and selected "delete all mms/text messsage" and it still shows that there is a message in the inbox. What else can I do without having to do a hard reset.
Thanks
I'm having the same problem with my Tilt 2. I've deleted all messages individually, went through settings & cleared all text mms messages, emptied deleted items, removed battery & SIM. I definitely don't want to do the hard reset unless it's absolutely critical. I hope someone has a fix for this.
this is a common thing that pops up. search for sms reset count or something like that. there is a fix
Thanks, I will look into that. do you know if it would be a .cab or just something through like a regedit?!
Did you check in the Inbox under Outlook? It creates a message on general email tips whenever you create an email account.
its a cab that has a registry edit in it
Hi:
Just got a new phone and used MyPhone to restore sms etc. to my new phone.
Well, it did restore all sms, but it restored them in a crazy, erratic order . Out of date, out of time (for example an sms from 10/25 shows after one from 10/26, and one from 10pm shows after one from 10am etc). Is there anything I can do about arranging them? I did of course try the view by MESSAGE TYPE, FROM etc (in the upper right of messaging), which only rearranged the main/last visible sms in the thread.
Also, the restored texts only show sent texts in TF3D sms tab (TF3D 2.1, WM6.5 stock ATT), but it does not show received texts.
Please help, as everything is a MESS now.
Thanks!
That's a good point. I noticed that too. Also my mms don't get restored with their pictures attached.
I've been having this problem for a bit now, wow, thought it was only me. However, when I log onto myphone on the net, everything is there, very strange
I've suffered the same problem as you guys, but I found a solution. Here are the steps I had to take to ensure the proper order of my SMS.
On your previous device you have to disable SMS threading. Here are the steps to do it (Assuming its WinMo 6.1):
1.) In your registry go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM\
2.) Create new DWORD value name: SMSInboxThreadingDisabled
3.) Set the value for that DWORD to 1
4.) Exit and soft reset device
Now you have to install Jeyo Mobile Companion to back up your SMS on your old device. You can use it as a trial for 30 days. Here is the website: http://www.jeyo.com/companion.asp
1.) Connect your previous device to the software and backup your SMS only (you will be given options to backup contacts and e-mail as well) using the software. It should be self-explanatory to do this. This creates a local backup file on your PC.
2.) Hard reset your Tilt 2
3.) Make sure in your Task Manager that Messaging is not in there
4.) Connect your Tilt 2 to Jeyo Mobile Companion. Choose the restore option to restore your SMS
5.) When the process is complete, go your SMS Inbox. If you see your Inbox sorting out your messages, then your job is complete. If you have a lot of SMS's this process can take a very long time. Do not interrupt the process at all! Just leave the phone idle for a while. If you do not see your Inbox sorting the SMS's continue reading.
6.) Delete all your SMS's on the Tilt 2. Make sure drafts, inbox, and sent items are empty. It can take a while to delete all the messages.
7.) Repeat steps 3-5
This is all based on my experience of restoring the SMS in the right order. If anyone has a simpler and more efficient way of doing this, please post.
Hi:
Thanks for your reply. Sadly I no longer have my old device.
Is there any other way of fixing this problem?
Thanks again!
From my experience, the only way around it is converting your SMS backup to non-threaded SMS backup. I haven't tried this method but you can see if works for you.
I am not sure if AdvancedConfig 3.3 is compatible with WinMo 6.5, but I assume it is. Please research if it is beforehand because I couldn't find confirmation. You can download that app from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418151
Use that app to disable threaded SMS. Soft Reset and if all went well, your inbox should not have threaded SMS anymore. Then start following my steps from where you install Jeyo Mobile Companion. The only difference is that in the first step, you will be backing up your SMS from your Tilt 2.
Let me know if that works out for you if you decided to try it out.
There were many complaints of this on the MyPhone forums and last I checked, Microsoft said that this was a known issue based on when the device was inserting a given message into the message store.
They said that they were working on it.

Hi:
Thanks so much for your replies
So, after restoring with Jeyo, can I then turn threading back on? I can't live without threaded messages lol.
Thanks again!
Oh I am sorry I forgot to mention that. After you backup your messages without the threading, you should hard reset your phone. Then just follow the steps like I mentioned. So yes, your threading should be enabled again by default so you don't have to worry about that on your part.
BTW, please don't forget to keep copies of your old backups (any backup files you had before I made my suggestions).
Hi:
Well when I disabled threaded messaging for some reason it caused my phone to become unresponsive. SMS tab was no longer loading in TF3D, and all of TF3D was basically unusable.
I had to hard reset, and restore with Sprite.
So, now I am back to the messed up SMSes.
Sorry to hear that. Yeah I was lucky enough to still have my old phone to mess around with so I am not sure how get your SMS in order. If you still feel like messing around I still have a few ideas in mind lol.
Forget trying to disable the threaded SMS all together. This time try backing up your SMS on your Tilt 2 using Jeyo. Once it's backed up, look in Jeyo and see how it is arranged. If you see all your received SMS in "Inbox" and sent SMS in "Sent" I guess that is a good sign. Then perform a hard reset on your phone and try restoring your SMS from Jeyo's backup file.
If after the first restore from Jeyo, your message is still out of order, don't panic. Like I mentioned earlier, delete all your SMS's(Not Hard Reset!) and perform the restore a second time. (I don't know the reasoning behind that, but hey it worked for me.)
Das-Man,
I have the HTC Touch Pro 2 with Verizon as my carrier and I tried your method.
I downloaded all my messages back onto my phone via My Phone. They were all out of order. So, I then downloaded Total Companion and edited the registry value as you said, so that they became unthreaded. Went to Jeyo's website, downloaded the program, backed them up.
I deleted all messages in my folders, deleted the registry values, made sure my mms was closed, etc. Then restored my messages. They went back on but they are still unthreaded in my windows sms windows.
I already had my contacts, etc backed up. So, I decided to reflash my rom thinking that it would definitely get rid of my threading edits. That went smoothly, and I tried again.
In the windows txt app they're still unthreaded, but in order. In HTC's texting window, all texts are now separated by author. IE. All of mine are at the top, with all of my correspondents at the bottom. Though they are in the correct order, this still isn't very helpful.
You have any more ideas of what I could do or where I might have gone wrong?
First of all, the HTC's texting Window is a mystery I have not solved yet. Yes, mine also has the same nonsense with the the messages I sent on top while the messages I received on the bottom. I am still researching into it, and if i find a solution, I'll definitely let you know.
Now for your Windows txt app; after you reflashed the rom you said your msgs are still unthreaded after you transferred them. I am not sure if I had the same problem but I remember something was wrong the first time I transferred. That is why I deleted all the text messages and did the transfer process a 2nd time w/o reflashing the rom. In other words, the first transfer usually doesn't work for some odd reason but the 2nd time it does. If you see messages being sorted, then you are good to go, and don't touch it til you are certain it is done. I hope I didn't confuse you lol. BTW is it WM 6.5?
Ugh, this is the most frustrating thing ever.
After reading your post, I reflashed my rom again. Put the txts on once, it was a no go. No sorting happened. I deleted all of them, reconnected to Jeyo, and went to restore again.
Jeyo got through all the inbox and about 1/2 the sent box. Then it errored and closed out, not completing the restore. I went into my inbox to delete this incomplete transfer, and lo and behold what was there began to sort. I left it alone to make sure and everything rethreaded. It was fantastic. But as I said, 1/2 my sent messages were misssing and thus did not get rethreaded in. So, I deleted all my messages again. Repeated process, jeyo didn't error this time.
But of course, now they refuse to rethread. I have deleted/re downloaded probably about 10 times now and not once did it begin to resort my txts. I even reflashed the rom, hoping that it only would work the 2nd time, still no cigar.
I just don't understand what makes the windows messaging app want to rethread or not. Are there special options I should select in the restore? Am I supposed to be checking that overwrite box?
And yes, this is WM 6.5.
When I was doing the transfer, I did not have the overwrite option checked off. The best thing i could suggest, is reflash your Rom. Make sure in task manager that messaging is not in there. Use Jaya to transfer all your SMS to the phone. If it did not thread, make sure you delete all your text messages. Don't use Jaya to delete the SMS's but use the phone. Make sure you delete your sent box, inbox and even drafts. If you have a lot of messages, it can take quite a while to delete so don't panick. When you see everything is clearn try the transfer process again and hopefully it threads. I'm sorry if I'm repeating exactly what you did, but that is the best I can think of.
I got it to work. I had to turn of the threading option when I transferred the texts over. Once they were one, i went and renabled threading. All threaded perfectly. =)
I don't seem to have the problem you are all facing. I tested many different scenarios without turning off Threaded Messaging. First synced all the messages, then archived only a few that were part of a threaded message. they obviously got deleted from the phone. Later I restored the same messages from the archive and voila, they were all back perfectly.
I'm not sure, but many of you might not be aware that there is a new version of MyPhone available. The one that came with my ROM wouldn't work unless I upgraded it, which I did.

Good to hear. BTW, were you able to get the HTC Messaging to thread properly?
After messaging last night I realized I had one text in my inbox in both the touchflo icon, and in the normal windows message centert (next to inbox on the drop down it says 1). I thought I just missed one in my long thread but it was not the case.
I deleted all messages from my inbox, outbox and cleared deleted messages. No luck. I tried using the "clear all text and multimedia" selection with no luck. Numerous soft resets, and even switching my theme to see if it would vanish. I have been texting all day, and deleting and no luck with the phantom inbox. Any help would be appriciated to rid of this problem. Thanks!

This issue has been discussed in length here in other threads. Use the search function in the top right of the page to look for "SMS unread count fix"
Unzip this and put it on your storage card and then run the exe. It will fix your problem.
Thanks It worked perfectly. And sorry for the repetitiveness never found a solution searching, only numerous folks with the same problem.
Thanks again to you both!
This worked great!! Thanks!!!!
wow, it works on my x1
worked for me as well, although the problem came back... again... i managed to fix it permanentally by switching the phone from threaded to classic text view, deleting ALL text messages, then running the program. issue resolved.. it seems to have occurred because of the 2016 date stamp issue, one text was unaccounted for and coincidentally had the 2016 year stamp on it.
Hope this helps future readers - Mark
Hey guys,
I've run this thing about 10 times, and it's simply not removing that 1 from my homepage. The inbox doesn't show it but the HTC homepage does.
Any ideas?

It happens when you somehow texted yourself.. or so the theory goes... if that's not working I would suggest a hard reset..
I also suggest this thread be locked as this is the 100th or more thread about this topic
Edit.... also did you try soft reseting your phone after you ran the program?
I did try soft resetting. I used the reset button on the side of the phone. I don't understand it. I've never texted myself as you mentioned. So, I don't understand. And hard resetting is simply not an option. I have too much set on this phone now to go and update everything.
I'm using DeepShining's ROM from around February.
Hey, thanks !
It worked GREAT on my HTC Touch Pro !!!
Thank you again...
