I searched all the forums about this issue but all I can find is things dealing with setting up text messaging. I have no network problems with data, text, or voice I just used the HTC network wizard.
Whenever I get a text message I can see the the beginning of the text in the selection screen but when I click on it the message is blank? So I can't read the whole text. I searched this Forum but couldn't find any people with similar problems. It seems to send them fine I just can't read the whole message for some strange reason. I have been clearing my memory and then flashing my Tmob Dash for the last three Kavana releases, they all exhibit this behavior. Any help appreciated with my problem.
What Rom are you using?

Kavana 080408. The texts that I get show up on the main screen with a little bit of the text but when I click on them they don't show anything. I tried pressing all the buttons I can but it doesn't seem to do anything.
See is UNthreading them helps.
Uhm, just a silly guess here, but next time you're on the blank screen, click menu (right softkey) > 5 (Folders) > change to inbox, at least if it's not on inbox already. My friend changed his to sent and couldn't figure out why he couldn't see new ones either hehe
I looked everywhere in the messaging app and also the regular phone settings I don't see anything for unthreading. Also MMS can be viewed and sent normally. Just whenever I try to send or read a recieved text I have problems. When I try to send a text it doesn't let me type anything in at all. Not recipient and not the body of the text.
No I have already gone to all the folders. The inbox folder is where I can see the messages. You can read the begining of them, and who it is from but when you select one it doesn't show anything.
I had the same issue before, the problem disappeared after I uninstalled CE-Star (Chinese-reading problem).. do you have it installed?

Check in Accessibility Folder for unthreading.
DON'T Turn off the Damn active x
I finally fixed this problem.
I had a problem with WM 6.1 will only showing the headers and not allowing you to read the contents of : Text messages, Emails, MMS. This errors would also not allow you to write emails or text messages.
I thought Kavana's ROM had some big error with it but no one else was complaining. I downloaded Ricky's rom but same problem. So this weeked I fooled around with my phone believing it was some program I was installing. Even though I only install Google Maps, TCPMP, YGo, and Windows Live. I would install something then restart. I tried installing them one by one then it seemed to work but still after a time was becoming broken. I thought it had something to do with synching corrupted contact data. So I didn't synch but after a while it still came back.
This morning I finally realized that if you turn off active x it breaks the email and text which I assume both use IE active x The bad setting is.....
Main Settings Menu->IE Settings->Advanced Options -> NEVER TURN OFF ACTIVE X CONTROLS.
I think if Kavana, my personal hero, rolls another ROM you should take out this option.

I am glad to hear that you fixed and resolved your problem, and haha I hope that Kavana makes another Rom, he is awesome. But then again I got to thank Ricky for this rom to I love it.
hello i am having the exact same problem i checked all advice given i.e. make sure it is on inbox folder, check ie active x is enabled, and no change.
any advice
also when u do see the message headers like yianaki but when you select the message and then press a soft key it says"message cannot be signed and/or encrypted"
You need an encryption key for your email and you don't have it on your dash email, maybe. Just a guess. Is there documentation as to what you need to set up your email. What steps did you need to take to get your email on your home computer.
i actually have kavana 6.1 version 080408 so i just used the connection setup for US tmobile. and it was working previous to this problem. i did a hard reset now and its back to normal for now
SWEEEET!
Thanks "Y" you saved my life, I had the same problem. Keep Active x controllers checkmarked "On".
change IE option.
I had the same problem only can view the header of a msg, but can
t see the content. Here is what I did to solve it: go to IE\tools\option\general\encoding\change to Unicode
Cant Open Text Message.
Hi, I'm from Jamaica, I bought my HTC S621 from Digicel Jamaica [here]. I followed the instructions and installed WM6.1 80408 Kavana and it was totally amazing, I did it on Saturday and it worked great, everything was working GREAT. On Sunday I realized I was unable to open my text messages for viewing. When I click Text Message, the colour wheel shows and it starts to open then it closes. I did all the suggested this in this thread but nothing works, any more suggestions please, I really need to send text messages to my work crew and this is a major hindrance. I dont know how to soft or hard reset and would like to try that first, any other suggestion would be great. Thanks.
PLEASE dont laugh or throw tomatoes, I fixed it. In my attempt to load a Yahoo messenger app I installed an SMS application that was causing the issue. Problem solved, sorry to be a bother.

Just wanted to voice my agreement with Yianaki about "Never turn off Active X controls". The whole issue lies in the fact that the text messaging app is basically an Active X control. But I wanted to add the reminder that you need to make sure that the "Text Messages" app gets closed then reopened after you make the change, or it will not appear to work. (Use the task manager/celetask to close it)
I had the exact same problems with text messages: I could send an MMS, receive an SMS, but not send an SMS. When a text message came in, it showed up in the list as expected, but an attempt to view it resulted in a blank area with no useful menu options. I also couldn't send text (SMS) messages out because the create-new-SMS screen was blank and non-functional. It has nothing to do with the threaded vs unthreaded Accessibility settings for the phone, nor do you need to worry about configuring your WAP settings (GPRS and MMSC Settings); the "Connection Setup" app takes care of everything for T-Mobile perfectly. It's all an Active X issue.
PS: This is all on Ricky's v24 "Vanilla" ROM of WinMo 6.1 running on a T-Mobile Dash.

Hi,
Is anyone having any problems with viewing email synchronised from non-outlook sources? We use websphere everyplace client at work, and everything syncs fine, however when you click on the message header within "messaging" you get a blank (white) screen. I cannot view any detail at all from the messages, and have spent the last 2 days mucking about with various settings (Changing the inbox options to get full copy of messages etc) to no avail. I am currently working back on WM2005 with no problems, but would love to go back to black!
Any assistance would be fantastic.
Cheers,
Rob
rvaker
rvaker, not sure what you mean, but kind of similar problem I have now too. I also get the "blank screen" but the thing is that the program scrolls down by itself the message, thus you see only white screen. If you see the scroll bar, scroll back up. I've got confused first time too, and thought it's not working. But at the moment, I don't know how to fix this and have the message on top right away without scrolling.
non outlook email reading and writng problem
Hi there.
I have same problem as well. With help of scrolling buttons I can read my email, however there is no opportunity to write new email or reply emails (white screen appear to screen).
How we can solve this problem? I am using vodafone push-email services.
Juha
I had a problem like this. My SMS and emails would always scroll down the screen when i opened them and had to use the bar to scroll back up to read it. Only thing i changed when this started happening was a reg change to navigation in IE and when i undid the change, it was fine again.
The change i made can be found in the wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other
About half way down under the Pocket IE (PIE) section. Its the one to Navigate PIE up/down with the four-way pad.
May be worth having a look at your registry and undoing this change if its been made!
Thanks very much, JamesAub and GuzuGuzu. I'll re-flash black tonight (my time!) and give it a go!
Hey, my boss and I just got the Rhodium and I am in charge of setting everything up to his wishes. However, we seemed to have run into something strange: the email on his phone seems to be hidden or deleted after a certain amount of days.
He is connecting using IMAP and all the mail is still on the server, but this morning his phone seemed to have hidden/deleted all mail from 3 days ago and before.
I can't find anything relating to these settings in the phone, can anyone help me with this problem?
You will need to alter the settings which can/should be found as:
Go to the email screen where you would read your mail. While there go through the following options:
Menu -> Tools -> Options -> [select the required account] -> send recieve schedule
From there the option is available in a drop down menu.
Hope that will work.
they aren't hidden, but deleted. But it's just a copy. the idea is that you don't need all the emails, only the recent on on your phone. it could (if you work with a lot of attachments) fill your memmory.
But waht music art1st said, you can said you want the email from the past 3 weeks or some other period.
Thanks a lot, I managed to find the settings now. I was a bit confused because the phone is in Dutch and I am only really used to running all my OS's in English so things were a bit difficult to find.
What you said worked perfectly though!
i had the same problem, and the solution was changing my configuration to IMAP not POP
emails
may be some one had this problem as well:
When you receive an Outlook e-mail message that was sent by using a russian version of Windows mobile, the name that appears in the From field may not appear correctly.
Email is ik, i read all and topick appears ok, but person name and address are shows like lots of letters: "njdnfjdnjfnd" if i press on it them it will show me the address.
On TP1 i didnt have this problem. but in TP2 i have it and i dont know how to fix it.
Thank you for help in advance.
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
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...
My wife and I both now have WM phones (mine is a Tilt 2, hers a Pure) and we don't want to spend money on text messages to each other, since each text message would count twice... once for her receiving and once for me sending. (on a pay per use plan it would be $0.40 each!).
I was looking for other options. Push email is o.k. but often times there can be a minute or more delay, and my early tests of push gmail are not producing any confidence that it would push reliably.
So then I was thinking IM. It looks like IM programs would be battery hogs, and have to stay running in the background, and could easily be accidentally closed. Also, when the phone goes to sleep it seems like they then switch you to "offline".
So am I missing something? What are my sms like, non sms options?
Also does anyone have any small programs that would set up a auto-soft reset on a repeating schedule, it would be great if I could start the morning with a fresh phone. Thanks.

Yes, any non-sms messaging app for your phone would obviously use data (3G or EDGE connection) to communicate, and would need to be left on all the time to be able to receive incoming messages and notify you in real-time...so battery drain would be in direct proportion to that.
The best solution I've ever seen for that is Palringo, a free IM-integrator app that can connect you through most of the common IM networks (yahoo, AIM, Google talk, etc), or just direct through it's own (if I remember correctly)...meaning that as long as you and she both have the palringo client installed, you don't necessarily have to use any of those services to be able to IM each other. It's also free, and I seem to recall that it can be set (but isn't by default) to stay connected even when the phone goes to sleep, but don't quote me on that part.
It would be great if one of these programs had a "listening" service that would run in the background and then notify you of the "call" similar to an email.
I have seen a few online, (my research has just begun) that indicates "push notifications". Sound interesting, the data connection would remain active all the time that does not bother me.
I seem to have lost the setting to switch the "x" button from close to minimize. That would solve the issue with accidental closing the program. It would have to be managed via the task manager.. no biggy.. and then if I can find a soft reset scheduler it would keep the open programs from overwhelming the phone.

If you'll find one, please let me know
lost the setting to switch the "x" button from close to minimize.

it's the other way around. default for winmo is minimize, there is
an htc bundled app called taskman. it's in settings - task manager which is making apps close when you click X
plenty of other apps can change that too
and then if I can find a soft reset scheduler it would keep the open programs from overwhelming the phone.

i made myself app doing change on backlight settings every morning and evening, I changed it for you to do reset
give it a try tell me if it's working for you and if error will pop up let me know what's it saying, at least line number
