I've searched for this, but can only find someone related topics for other phones/OSs.
I had to have my Touch Pro 2 (Sprint) replaced, so now I'm running WinMo6.5 with Sense UI 2.5.x. I backed up all my PIM data with PIMBackup (or whatever the program is called). Since I've gotten it, however, all of my text conversations are wonky.
In HTC's text manager, in any given conversation, all of my messages are at the top of the conversation, and all of the other person's messages are at the bottom This can make longer conversations, and past conversations very confusing.
Does anyone know of this error, or of a good fix for it? Thanks!
I've had the same issue before, after flashing a new ROM and enabling the HTC messaging before I restored my PIM file. Are you using a Stock or Custom ROM? If custom, there is a good chance you have Arcsoft messaging installed (if not, you can download it - just search XDA for a cab).
I would delete all messages, enable/install Arcsoft messaging, soft-reset, then restore your messages from your PIM backup file. That may not fix it, but it's worth a shot.

Stock ROM, and yes, I did load the PIM backup after loading HTC messaging for the first time. I deleted most of the old messages (that copied over the 2016/17 bug, somehow...), installed another SMS fix for the message order, and tested it with a few friends back and forth. Seems to be working now.
I also found and installed an Overclocking program, and now this bad boy is twice as fast!

Hello everyone,
Having a problem since flashing from stock WM 6.1 rom over to a 6.5 Rom like Mighty Rom.
Can't seem to restore my old sms text messages properly. Tried PIM Backup, SPB backup and Microsoft Myphone with no luck.
I mean they do actually restore the messages except they are scrambled and not in order by the correct date and time. This means when I go to view a threaded convo or use the manila "reply" option the previous text conversation is there but not in the order in which it was originally. This is unfortunately not much help.
I'm not sure if this is a known issue with flashing from 6.1 to 6.5 or not but if anyone knows a way to successfully do this it would be very appreciated.
Well apparently found a fix but didnt really fix it. Someone suggested restore the sms, turn off threaded sms, soft reset, turn it back on and soft reset again. That did resolve placing them in order when I click on "all messages" and in the text message inbox and threaded convo they are all in order.
My problem now lies in the manila sms threading. As in when you scroll to the sms tab, flick through messages and click on the screen and it takes you to a threaded convo showing you a small pic of that person and gives you the little text box on the bottom of the screen to enter a reply and you press "send" on the screen.
Anyway on that screen all previous messages are still scrambled. If anyone knows a fix please share!! Thanks!!
Same problem here. Hoping someone has a solution; it's not critical in any way, but annoying.
I restored with PIM backup after turning off Threaded messages. Then I turned on threaded messaes and the phone takes about 2 hours to sort 3000 SMS. I can see now threaded messages but also have the problem in Manila SMS's threading. New messages come in the right order but restored wont.
I think we need some kind of back up utility that restores messages one by one, from older to newer, both sent and received mixed up. Restore utility at PIM backup will restore Received messages then sent messages and thats why Manilla scrambles. Any idea?
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.
Ok, so I succumbed to hard resetting my device. Having restored my PIM data and texts from backup, I've noticed that in the HTC Manilla Messaging App is displaying my threaded SMS' incorrectly.
All of the restored SMS' are in the correct order but any new texts sent since the restore are being appended to the TOP of the thread, not the bottom.
All of this means that I have to scroll to the very top of the thread each time to see the latest set of texts. Madness.
Is anyone aware of how to fix this?
My TP2 is running stock WM 6.5 and Manilla 2.1
Many thanks.
I recently had to get my HTC Tilt 2 replaced with another unit and I have tried over 4 programs, including Microsoft's My Phone to backup/restore my SMS messages from the old phone to the new one. The process works every time with every program but with ONE quirk. One of the things that I loved about Windows Mobile was the new SMS threading...being able to see my sent messages threaded into their received messages. But EVERY time I restore the SMS messages to the new unit, I lose this feature. How do I get my SMS messages to re-thread after they've been restored using any one of these programs? (I've used imobiletools sms backup, rescoe backup, Godswmobile SMS, 3G Mobile SMS Backup, etc)
I just want them re-threaded....but all of the messages are there. But until i can do this, I don't want to take the chance and make the full switch yet.
HELP!!!!

Try this:

If this doesn't work then search for Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3. This has an option within it to enable/disable threaded SMS.
I tried the registry edit already and it didn't work.
Any other ideas? From what I've heard, the registry edit is for Windows Mobile 6.1 only, I have 6.5?
Hello all. I've searched the web for this problem, but can't seem to find anyone else with it. So I thought I would throw this out there and hope someone has a solution.
I recently upgraded from a 2.1 stock ROM to a 2.2 ROM. Before upgrading, I backed up all my data (SMS, MMS, call log) with MyBackup Pro by ReWare. Upon restoring the data, after installing the custom 2.2 ROM (the most recent leak), I do not have any of my MMS pictures from non-verizon contacts. They just show as blank spaces in my messaging conversation.
Messages from my Verizon friends still show the pictures, but messages from AT&T friends do not. Very frustrating since many of my family are non-Verizion.
Anyone have any advice? Do images just stay stored on a server until I choose to save them? I don't know how this stuff works.
just a quick addition to bump this back up...
It happened to both my wife's and my phones, and with hers I was simply going from one 2.1 ROM to another, so apparently it has nothing to do with the change in versions. And on both of our phones it is only the contacts from AT&T for which our MMS images and videos are missing. This is odd. Anyone?
