I have a problem
My SMS inbox total is 6867
My SMS sent items total is 7230
Im running a Dopod P800W (HTC3300) and Windows Mobile 5
Is there are limit to SMS counts ?
When I restart my phone, my SMS in my Inbox "forgets" all the SMS for that day as if I received none. Same applies for my sent items folder.
As long as I restart my phone, I would lose all the incoming SMS for that day and regardless how many times I restart, it would reset to that amount.
Sometimes, I get lucky and it "remembers" the SMS's but another restart would just delete them all. Its as if changes to the SMS database are not saved.
I have all the SMS's but newer SMS's are not remembered from yesterday onwards.
Any idea?
I think it's an annoying BUG as I have the same issue..
the work around is to make sure the message application is closed when you have finished with it as this sort of saves them...It would seem that if it's running when you restart/reboot phone it looses all unsaved messages so new messages must be seen as unsaved some how.
hope that helps..

what i managed to find out that a few SMS messages were bugged when I deleted them from the Deleted Items list
this was a few days ago..
I restored using SPB Backup to a date BEFORE deleting those messages and choose not to delete them (for the sake of this bug)
So after a few tests and restarts, I dont have this problem anymore
Looks like I have 2 leave these messages in the Inbox
I have had the same problem, but now, I cant save any thing and every time I receive a text message my ppc restarts after a while.
this happened after I deleted a message from the deleted items folder
(i have 13000 text messages in my inbox and 14000 in my sent items)
what should i do?
hei , this thread is still around
anyways, i did the same thing which got me into this problem
i cant really remember but it was to do with a corrupted SMS in the deleted items folder
the thing is that deleted SMS in the deleted items cannot be deleted forever so i decided not to delete it but just move it back into the inbox (13001/14000) and it worked again
Wow.. thanks jcsy... I did the same thing too
1. Identified the SMS that is bugged (somehow, this SMS appeared multiple times) which I deleted previously
2. Restored it from the deleted folder back into my Inbox
3. Restarted my PDA
Voila! It doesn't give any more errors.... my SMS are all in tact!
The question now is - would this 'bugged' SMS harm anything in our phone? Is it a virus?
i think its an SMS which should be corrupted somehow in the database since its a big one, which we maintain
thousands of SMS's
well, i didnt bother about it and now all my SMS continues to save as normal
glade that solved your problem
but ive got a new problem now instead, which is killing me...

My inbox shows 6 messages, but once you clik to enter, it only shows 1K on the right side and nothing ever opens up, the rest of folders seem OK, even new ones. It is something that affects only SMS messages and that I could not repair by reinstalling the program.
Has anyone faced the same problem and found a solution? It is rather annoying when you are abroad, like I am now, not being able to read any of my text messages.
Thanks,
gonz
Slightly different I think, mine would show that I had new text messages but would not display them, the inbox would appear empty, I was using Sprite backup, and discovered that sometimes it would corrupt the mail database after a restore, so downloaded their cleanmail program.

It will all delete all email accounts, text messages and the MMS account but I don't use mms so not to bothered.
Thanks, will try, although it seems I will not be able to read some txt messages, but looks like the only option.
i never thought cleanmail is so useful.
after restoring from a hard reset, about 800+ messages got corrupt and showed up as 1kB messages that wouldnt ever open.
cleanmail trashed em all just like bubbles.
Thanks a lot! Once my text messages account disappered and it can only be fixed with hard reset. With this program i was able to restore from backup and fix the problem! Thanks again!
WHAT A USEFUL TIP
Hey! This cleanmail thing is fantastic!
WHAT A USEFUL TIP.
I don't know who I want to marry more - spritesoftware for coding the app or bluetba for giving the heads-up!

My Problem is, that I recieve only some of my SMS/text that was sent to my. So I heard from friends that they sent me a text message, but I didn't get it. There is no pattern on this problem. I have a conversation with 4 sms sent to me, but i only recieve 1,2,4. Message Nr. 3 is missing. Sometimes its also the first message thats lost.
All my friend got the status for sms/text activated and they get the status "delivered" for the lost messages.
Someone else that problem?
I only have seen the problem about sending, but none with getting.
yeah the same happened to me recently, but only with my GF number (same operator), not other contacts (AFAIK: since no one complained, no sms got missed!). still no diagnosis, and no solution obviously. hope that won't lead to a hard reset, which is a major pain
I had an issue that my sim card was full - it seemed the phone was trying to save sms to the sim. I deleted a few and now all seems okay. However they can't be going to the sim any more as I have received more than I deleted.
This happened after I had been using a spare phone as I went camping and needed a phone that had a few days battery life instead of the day or so that my touch pro 2 has
thanks for your help smudge.
it's not my case since my sim card is blank, no sms or contacts in it.
however, yesterday evening I hard resetted the phone, now I'm waiting to test if the problem is still here. If it is, it must be the operator's fault, or something related to my GF device / SIM. I'll let you know if I discover something new...
I have similar problem - I'm supposed to receive SMS, but I don't. I didnt have this problem (I didnt notice it) before I installed latest version of S2U2, maybe there's some problem with it? I have S2U2 set to show incoming SMS/MMS messages...
Also I have enabled hack mentioned in this forum which powers on mobile on receiving message (so it is displayed on the screen, not only notified by blinking LED and sound as is default setting). Maybe there is some incompatibility with S2U2, Im trying to pipoint this.

uhm...missing sms should be the operator's problem,
i've been having such issue not only with TP2.....not all the time but usually consecutive sms with only one person usually caused it
i have the same problem, tried hard resets rom flash but no success!
i am from austria!..
please somone fix that thing
after HR yesterday evening no more missed sms until now, no one I had notice of. but that doesn't make me feel safe, it needs to be checked further.
surely gunggu is true!
sorry, probably ot, but i have the opposite problem.
I have too much sms in the incoming folder: I can see my sent sms. That means an sms like (me: hi bla bla..)
the received notification is disabled. any hint?
so after some tests, I figured out my problem.
It was the programm proxy cab, that I used. If it is installed, I got only every second sms, after it is deinstalled I got every sms...
Strange problem.
Hey there people all much smarter than me. I just bout a HTC touch pro 2 (i know 2009 called and wants their phone back) anyway i am having this problem of some sms messages not getting through. i have not been able to see a pattern due to not finding out about missing messages till sometimes weeks after i missed getting them
if anyone found a solution thats not alreay mentioned in this thread (cant find an option to save stuff to the sim)(cant find mention anywhere of "program proxy cab"
any help would be great otherwise i will have to go back to using my HTC tytn 2
I recently used Jeyo Mobile Companion to move all my text messages (sent and received) older than a certain date to a seperate folder. Now, at random, when I send a text message, that entire thread of messages will delete from my phone. All my other messages from other contacts are not affected, only the thread of text with the contact I texted.
Of course I did all of this before I took a vacation, and am not currently able to undo the move of messages.
I checked the archive folder to see if maybe my missing threads had been moved to there, but they have not, they are just gone. This only occurs when I send a message, it has not happened otherwise. And it is at random, not every thread deletes. Let me know if you need more details. Oh, stock AT&T ROM, WM 6.5. Thanks.
Nobody else has experinced this? I'd appreciate any suggestions for restoring the lost texts (if possible) and for preventing it from happening again.
Just an idea. Not sure since I don't use the particular software you mentioned to auto delete messages.
The reason for your problem may stem from having threaded messaging enabled. If you have it enabled, this means that in the default WinMo messaging app, you can't delete particular messages. You have to delete the whole thread. It's all or nothing. (Note, it's possible to delete individual messages via Manila)
Disable threaded messaging with Advanced Config tool and see if your problem disappears.
I moved the messages back to the correct folders (sent and inbox) and everything seems to have corrected itself.
Hey guys im using htc messenger. i dont like arcsoft as it eventually forces me to read messages via all messages. the thing with htc is it groups sent together with recieved on top instead of sent received sent received driving me nuts anyone know a fix?
I had this problem when I was flashing different roms, this worked for me once, and the other time it didnt and had no choice to delete the msgs (If thats an option for you) the first time with the HTC I went and changed the sms to traditional mode, and then exited (Thru task manager in the start menu) sms, then powered down the phone, then turned it back on and then went back to sms and changed it back to conversation mode and it fixed it, the second time that didnt work, because some how the time date stamp of the msgs got messed up and it was putting msgs inbetween msgs, so since the first way didnt work, I just backed it up and then cleared my sms. But try the first way and see if that fixes your problem.
Hey guys, I have just tried doing a hard reset and recover using the built in backup. It restored my data perfectly after the hard reset, although now when I recieve messages, the message does not go under the correct conversation.
For example I already have a conversation with BOB and JANE. I get a sms from JANE, which shows up inside BOB's conversation.....
I installed handcent sms which I guess I will uninstall and see how it goes. Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue?
So far the only way to resolve this in my experience was to delete ALL sms threads. All the sms I am now receiving are going to the correct conversations. What a stupid bug.
I just went into my gf's conversation on my phone, then sent a sms through it, it went to my boss....WTF? I get a sms back from him and it goes into my gf's conversation.....
