messenger glitch? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i notice on my phone if i go into a txt message, i back out and i hold down for the menu to come up on a message it will highlight the one i hit then jump to another message... sometimes if i dont hold and just quick touch it will actually jump to the 2nd highlighted message and not the one i hit, what could cause this? it doesnt happen on my friends 2 evos.... and i checked, it ONLY does it in messages

Anyone??

Need help, Text Messaging Shortcuts.

Is there a keyboard shortcut or something similar where I'm able to send a message without actually pressing "send" on the display? Yes I know, the send button is only a few millimeters away from my finger tips but I'm to damn lazy and I like sending messages with speed lol. I believe I was able to do this on the Wing or the MDA, not quite sure... but yeah if you guys have some good input in how to send a message without using the damn "send" button on the display that would be killer. Thanks!

Issue with SMS

When I try to respond to a received SMS, sometimes I don't get a cursor to be able to start typing. I have to close the messaging tab and reopen it and then usually the cursor appears. Does anyone else have this issue.
if your using sense, then yes i have the same problem. maybe. if your keyboard is already out when you open the message it wont have a curser. all you have to do is tap the white box where yo type and it SHOULD be fine
It's more serious than that for me.
Sometimes the area where you are supposed to type is shrunk down to about half it's normal height, the messaging app doesn't scroll down to the most recent message in the thread, and there is no cursor to start typing. I'm using the stock at&t rom minus the bloat. I love this phone except this one quirk. I mostly use my phone for texting and every other time I receive a text it seems like I have to close out and reopen it. Very annoying problem.

Not to throw my 2c in but I just realized something on my Tilt2 when a msg txt comes in for me to reply to I dont get a cursor in the box either, but you can start typing without tapping the box or waiting for the cursor.
Recently been playing around with the MAX MANILLA rom just installed a few days ago. Tried playing around with my registry learning to fix some problems.
Usually I txt through TOUCH FLO 3D and the problem is. If i was to send a txt message, it won't show up on the screen, I would have to refresh my screen to another section and come back to see my txt message.
Any tweaking suggestions?
Thanks.

Sending Text message while receiving call

Hey,
i recently got a HTC Touch Pro 2 and i'm quite happy with it. Nice phone all in all. Just that when i receive a call while the phone is in my pocket it automatically presses the "send text message" button in the right bottom. This makes it send the message "I am busy right now i'll call u back later" blabla. Anyone knows how to turn this off?
I have looked around this forum, google and the phone itself but i can't find it anywhere..
Thanks!
Phone, Menu, Options, Advanced tab.
Uncheck "reject call with text message".
The button you are pressing is rejecting the call. It will keep doing this, just without sending a text.

Hm is there a way to fully disable the button? I prefer using the slide to refuse a call, not just press a button. Also i'm using the default HTC WM 6.5 rom..

Yeah it does, but the problem is i keep accidentally pressing the button in the bottom right. This making me refuse the call without wanting it.

Keyboard keeps going away

When I hit send on my text messages the keyboard drops out, I want to change this as it is very annoying. It drops out and I have to hit the input field again to bring it back .

hilarious! i agree. why do you want the keyboard still up, if you have already sent the message?
honestly, i don't know how you would keep it up otherwise. everytime i've used any of the three i have installed (stock, modified IME, and swype) all drop down as soon as i'm done using the keyboard.
and tg for that. i want to see the screen if i don't have to type.
I want to have it still up because im having a conversation and am going to type another message shortly. My unlocked vogue running android didn't do it so that's just what i got used to, does anyone know if an app or something to keep it open

Hit the back button. It will leave your text in the input but wont send.

Maybe I'm stupid now...but why would you type out a text message and then not send it?

to save it as draft, and that's not what I want. I want to send it but not have to tap the input field to pull up the keyboard again.
I'm with you on this one. Having the keyboard disappear is annoying. There is no reason for it not to stay on the screen. It only adds an extra tap for no reason.
Coming from years with the iphone, and having the keyboard stay on the screen after you press the send button, I find the Android way annoying. Doesn't mean I won't adapt, it just annoys me.
If you want the keyboard to reappear, press and hold the menu button.

tapping the input field does the same thing, and it still goes away when I hit send.
i think you're in the minority here, which is why it's configured like it is. most people want it to go away after they send, because they're done with the keyboard at that point.
i haven't seen a setting to keep it from doing that. i suspect it can be written though. go put a request in in the application section
you could try swype i think in the videos the keyboard doesn't go away

Optimus G stock messaging app has no "back to message list" button

So I've had this phone for probably 4 months now, and it's my first Android, and I've started to become very frustrated with the stock messaging app since it has no "back to message list" button in the top left of the current message screen. I understand that I can return to the list using the escape capacitive key but that can often be a pain since if I've accessed an unread message from the lock screen or notification bar the escape key will usually return me to the home screen or the last application I was using. It's very annoying because then I have to go back to the message app again and open another unread message or compose a new one. Is this driving anyone else nuts or is it just me? It seems that every other phone/android os has this button as well as many other apps such as Gmail, Facebook, etc. I've started using my sms as my primary message app since I find this so annoying.
Any thoughts or fixes?
