Phone book problem

Hey guys, I upgraded my desire from 2.1 to 2.2 on Sunday using ota and since then my phone contact phone numbers are displayed in an American format. For instance an area code of 01438 would now be 014-38x-xxx etc. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening? If I add a new contact then it displays it correctly...
Cheers

[Q] SMS problem

Hi guys, strange problem is happening with me over last couple of days and as usual Vodafone are no help whatsoever at rectifying it, hopefully someone on here can help.
All of my contacts are working as normal with sms and mms except for one contact. When I try to sms this one contact the phone does not even attempt to send it, it only keeps the typed text in the typing box and leaves the icon flashing as if waiting for more text to be typed! If I add a subject title to the message it will send fine as an mms message to this person and can phone the person all fine...just the sms option not working.
Would appreciate if anyone has any ideas

Try recreate the contact and try not to sync the contact with any web profile you have.

Have tried this mate, even spoke to HTC earlier and the guy was pretty helpful but baffled. Am running tbfusion3d but dont think problem is with that as I've been using it for months. Tried installing handcent app there but same problem, send button just refuses to work with the one contact

Can they send you a sms and then try to reply. Is the phone number stored(typed out) the same as the rest of your contacts? Try adding the number to an existing contact and see what happens. Deft strange tho. Subscribed

You have an extremely rare case here. Even if you've tried to clear the contact? Hmm, I don't think I can help you further no more. Sorry

They can text me fine but replying just draws a blank unless I add a subject title as an mms...really strange
Ps yes if i delete contact and only use number its the same

Ran across one of my friends with this same issue but for about 3 of her contacts. Tried everything short of factory reset.
Installed GoSMS and all good.

htc sense sms problem

the order of txt messages is very strange, time received also wrong.. what should i do? i use the network time.

i've experienced this too, the message i received is about 2 minutes past my clock. This happened especially when the sender is on different carrier, so i guess this is because there is a difference in their time server.

Thanks!!

I use the app "SMS Time Fix". Even I used to get this problem but now with this app the timestamps are perfect!!
Hope this helps!!

[Q] Message not sent

I have being with this problem like by 2 days. I have not updated anything on my phone. I have CM7, I use handcent for the messages but also tried using the original messaging application. I keep getting the same error "Message not sent". I have restarted the phone a lot of times, and I don't know what to do.
I use a HTC Desire CDMA and my career is Open Mobile from Puerto Rico.
¡Thanks!

Check "service center" in text message settings for your carrier. Every carier has a specific service center number.

Where is that located?

Not using CM7. On my ROM messages--menu--settings--text messages--service center.

Help needed [ROM]EQDKP Sense 3.5 - GB2.3.5 [m1ndh4x8r mod]

Hi does any one else get a problem with the stock message app it sometimes shows the contacts number instead of there name upon receiving a message but if u click there picture and then send message it flicks from there number to there name which fixes it until u next open or receive a new message then it flicks back to the number
It's driving me nuts because half the time I don't know who there from unless I click there picture and click view or send message
Does anyone have a fix I'm willing to donate some money

Try to backup your sms/mms messages with MyBackup Root from Google Play, delete all messages from the messaging app, restore the backup and immediately reboot your phone.
Something like that already happened to me and I fixed it this way. Good luck!

I tried but
What ROM u using ? It only happens on this one

What I write below applies to the EQDKP Sense 3.5 Rom.
Are you using a startup app manager? If you do make sure you don't disable "Messages" app on startup.
If you do you won't get names on your sms. Only numbers. Happened to me. I spend lots of time fine-tuning my phone so that it does not load unneeded stuff.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using xda premium

I don't use any startup manager
I've also noticed that it always shows numbers in the notification popup and in the pull down bar if there clicked but if I click messages it shows the names
Very strange anyways thx for ur imput

Make sure you have the contact's full international number in your contact list, ie. +44 for UK numbers

Got it thx man
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using XDA Premium App

That was usefull. Thank you.

weird i have the same problem and i dont think adding the international code before the contact number is a valid option cz this didnt happen in the stock rom so i believe there is a fix out there !
