Hey everyone ..
2 days ago i hit 5000 messages with a person on my HOX, im using the default sms app ..
2 days ago i wasn't rooted and when the problem came to my attention i decided to root my phone and try out something else ..
So i backed up my messages and rooted, installed ARHD 7.1 and restored everything ..
i can open every other conversation beside the one with 5000 messages..
when i try to open the messages it just says " loading "
Now this is not an issue for me, i just deleted the messages and started over.. but it's a bug, and it is there .. so if anyone would care to look into it.. now you know!
have a nice day!
EDIT:
Btw, the messages works fine with another sms app
EDIT2:
Solved by deleting the messages or limiting the " pr conversation " to anything under 5000 messages ..
It's probably cause it takes a lot of time for the phone to load all the text messages. Normally on free or alternative sms apps you have to scroll up 10 messages or so and then click load more messages. And what the he'll, 5000 messages?

Had it running for 20 minutes .. and it's never been an issue before .. once it hit 5000 exactly it wont load anymore ..
5000 recieved and sent .. so about 2500 sent ..
I had this issue with a desire i was fixing for someone, its just because of the huge amount of messages, so I downloaded Handcent SMS ( i think ) and that was able to see the huge message thread, from there i deleted about 2000 of the oldest messages and then it was fine?

i went into settings for the Standard Message app to set a limit of messages..
i could set the limit between 1-5000 .. Maybe HTC limited it to 5000 .. im not sure ..
5000 messages dammm I delete all before bed. I'll never come across that bug.

I'd say if you delete them it might solve your problem.

Deleteing em did solve my problem ! ..
i just think its wierd that above 5000 messages it wont load ..
Not that i need it to .. but it shouldn't be a problem to have more than 5000 in one conversation..
I remember my Sensation XE when I upgraded to ICS via OTA update. I couldn't open my messages for a long time and the message "Loading..." was just there. But I believe after a day it was fine and my messages loaded again.

Such problems happens on my phone as well, my total message count is 12xxx and the max number of msg in a single thread is around 8000, same problem as yours, seems like no way to fix but to build cumulative backups using apps.
Hmm shouldn't this be discussed in a stalkers forum? 5000 msgs in one thread?

Hello,
I've suspected for a while(and confirmed with friends) that relatively often, my sms don't get to them. It's shown as sent in my phone and in the sms threads, but they simply don't recieve them.
So I tested it out with another phone, sending 5 sms' to the other phone and it only recieved the first one. the other 4 never got there... Now could this be some sort of anti spam causing it? - I did send them in rapid succession. However when I send messages from the OTHER phone to me, regardless of how quick, I get them all. And we're on the same network/provider so that doesn't seem to be the problem.
During regular use, even SMS' sent with lots of time inbetween gets lost occassionally.
I've never had this problems with my old phone so does anyone else have a clue why this is happening? As you can imagine, it's frustrating thinking someone has gotten a message but it never reached there.
Thank you.

Hey thanks for the reply, I saw that but doubt that's the same problem.. I usually list most of my numbers with +, and it shows the message is "sent". If it was the same problem as the link above, I guess it would b epossible to reproduce it everytime but mine is seemingly more random.
The specific number I tested it on was a number WITHOUT the +areacode, and even that produced 1/5 messages recieved by the other party.
Any other ideas?
I had that problem before with my touchPro. All I did was hard reset the phone, active sync my contacts and I sent out text messages. Everything worked fine after that.

Also checked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4016381&postcount=31 ? see if the number is still correct in windows mobile?
Also try to sent from the windows interface a couple of times (in the textmessage touchflo tab touch the new sms icon in the above right corner.) see if it does better then.

God you know what, you're right. Thanks. I did look through the WM sent folder before but not far down enough..
It does seem to drop the + after the first SMS then not reapply the + until I get a reply.
Annoyingly my phone still tells me "Message Sent" instead of invalid number though, so there's no way to tell if it sent the message without going to check the sent folder I assume?
Doesn't seem like there's a fix or even a confirmed cause for this yet?
I'm having a strange reversed problem: all SMS I send are regularly delivered, but I "miss" many incoming ones. the strage thing is that it happens (AFAIK) only with my girlfriend's ones!! nobody else still complained about me not anwering, so that should mean I received and answered all other mesages.
Please note that we have the same mobile operator (Vodafone Italy)
today she tried her SIM with her bro's phone, and guess what, the problem is still here BUT the difference is in lost messages: 4 out of five lost with her Moto v9, 2 out of 6 lost with her bro's nokia. that sounds really weird to me.
where do you think the problem might be? mine/her SIM, or phone?
I'll call Vodafone Italy later, but their assistance and support is really awful, they do not even know what they are talking about, and reply with the same pre-confectioned anwers every time.
Hey guys, just last night my Defy stopped letting me send text messages to one of my contacts!
I can text everyone fine, except for one person. I try sending a message and I get the "Message failed to send" notification. I've tried restarting my phone, I've installed Handcent SMS and I've even cleared out all my messages but it still doesn't let me send messages to the one contact!
Any suggestions on how I can fix this? I'm running the stock Telstra (Australian) ROM. I rooted it about a month ago.
That's a strange behaviour, have you tried to create a new contact and use it to send the sms?

did the number come from facebook ? ive had problems where the number stored is starting '44' rather than '+44' .....
Turns out Motoblur doesn't like me. It wiped out half of this contact's phone number that I couldn't txt.
Replaced the number and it seems to be working now.

i noticed this too bloody annoying and you can't delete the useless number without deleting all the facebook part :/
M too having a similar problem ! Any message bigger than 160char or sending s small message to multiple contacts ...... it just doesn't send ! Any help here ?
similar problem except that it keeps on showing "failed" until i edit the text and send it again...
Happened on stock ROM and still happening on CM7.2
try to add or delete "+" in front of the number
had the same problem after upgradeing to latest MIUI version. Check the SMS Center Number. For me the wipe data solved it! good luck!

The messages go but not too many at once .... ... or big page messages .
my phone takes about 1 hr to delete 50 messages
i have 10,000 this would make the phone unusable for about a month while it deleted them.
how can i delete them? 1 thread has 5000+!
i tried clearing the data from settings> applications >messages
which looked for 2 secs that it did when i opened messaging again but it seemed as if the phone auto restored all the messages again!
?
lol what ? 1 hour for 50 messages is impossible. And you lose all your messages by preforming a full whipe before installing a new rom.
My girlfriend can send more than 50 msgs in an hour when we fight I turn off the phone after 5 I don't want to instigate I'm never surprised when I get home and turn on my phone and they all pour in beep beep beep for like 20 mins lol

When you have an sms app like go sms pro, all received sms by one sender were pooled in one thread. If you delete this one, all messages in this thread will be deleted. If you want to stop receiving sms, you could use handcent sms, which has a blacklist option:
http://www.handcent.com/Faq.php#TAG_USEBLACKLIST
But turn off all informations about received sms in settings of original sms app.
SMS Backup and Restore as a "delete all sms" option. Perhaps leave it going overnight. SMS appear to delete more quickly the fewer there are on the phone.
Um...
Maybe you can delete messages in my way.
Click menu and choose delete.Then select messages that you want to delete.

So much people posted here. I was confused and reflected all posts to you. I beg your pardon for this! But back to you: When you delete messages in directly your sms app, they should not "come back".

Try different sms apps.
I have a restriction of 75 messages per person. Can be installed in normal SMS app. So android deletes older ones all the time. If you want to delete all message at ones without losing time, perform full wipe

I just downloaded this app because i need threaded mms. but i noticed that my last sent message always stays in the txt box after i sent it off and when i go back later to message that person I keep having to delete the txt i last sent. I cant seem to find a setting for why this happens but its dealbreaking in its level of annoyance.
Anyone know how to make this stop?

I had this problem too, but they fixed it a month or so ago. I believe it happened with the Swype keyboard. try updating handcent or re-installing it
i just downloaded it new when i wrote this thread. im using stock sammy keyboard too. I had to uninstall it because its annoying me so much lol..
how do i get threaded multi person txts to work with go sms.. it never works for me
I used to use handcent but switched to gosms because I found it worked better. Also the themes are better.

So I just got my HTC M8. Loving it, but noticed how text messages take a while to go through. Also, I tried that on stock messages app and also on google hangouts. It takes a bit of time for messages to go through compared to my iPhone 5S. Also, I restored all my text messages to the phone from my iPhone (complicated process) and the Messages app takes forever to load. Is this happening with anyone of you as well? Any work around?
have same issue on my m8 messages wont go through at all. did factory reset and it did not help. I had to go back to the m7 to get my texting back
my biggest gripe is how long it takes hangouts to load. not necessarily an issue with the m8 though. in regards to how slow it is for messages to go through the stock messaging app, it's just as fast as my note 3 and my gf's Z1. both take a few seconds to send messages.
what i found to work is changing the settings to sending all messages as high priority...not sure why it changes, but i haven't had an issue since i changed that setting. before that it would sit there for up to 30 seconds and then i'd get a message saying it didn't send...was having issues receiving texts as well.
same issue on my M8 messages won't go through at all.
