I've saved photos of friends to contacts, so that when they call or message me image will show up. But recent dinner incident is one of the names in the phonebook can not display even though I have saved it already. Call is still present but not message!
Has anyone encountered this case before?

Duplicate issue needs help
I am having the same issue. I have the ATT fuze, however this is my third one. The first one was perfect until there was a party foul that took it away. The second one had a typing issue so I replaced it. This third one is doing the same as the above poster mentioned. My today screen will show that I have text messages waiting to be opened but when I navigate to the folder there is nothing in it. Performed a hard-reset but the same thing happened. Installed third party software and now I can view the messages and reply. I am not happy with this "bandaid" but it will temporarily do till this can be resolved. Please help.

there may be something wrong with your storage card
the storage card can, by any means, have nothing to do with it. i personally never had such a problem, so i can just guess:
sample situation:
- i receive an sms, i see a notification, with the sender and the first few words.
- instead of clicking read, i press the hardware mail button to open messaging and read the sms
- while having it opened, i delete it.
- i go back to home screen and there is still a message and a notification
now i have confused my phone showing me new messages, although i already read and deleted them.
that is the only way i could think of to even get in that situation.
btw. that is the same thing with missed calls. if i have a notification of a missed call and instead of clicking the notification i open the phone manually and look whose call i missed, i will still have the message on home screen, telling me, there was a call i didn't know about, although i already checked.
please make sure that the description above is not the case.
because that is a general bug/user mistake, since the notification service is not fully integrated in pocket outlook, sometimes it gives out older data if you bypassed it to get to your information. that is normal. next time you get a message, try clicking the notification and click read or save as read, and look what consequences that has in your messaging folder.
if then still there is no message to be found, right after you read it once, it is still probably an error in the communication between notification service and pocket outlook, but then it is not your fault anymore you'd probably have to flash another rom then,
OR
it is something completely different and you need to contact your carrier, that receiving sms doesn't work out for you, that either you get a new sim or other network settings need to be changed.
my solution
I made some changes using advance config and changed portrait and landscape mode to cleartype. the fuze does not work with cleartype in landscape mode. Turn that off and it begins to work.
Text Messages not displayed
I know this is a very old thread but did anyone come out with a solution.
I'm still using my Blue Angel and it's come up with this problem.
I think it was after I received an MMS message (the first I received).
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.
http://spritesoftware.crmdesk.com/answer.aspx?id=141&back=browse.aspx#p17
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!

I don't understand but sometimes the Contact Names decided to appear and other times they don't. Like take for example my friend Curt, he sent me an SMS but the name didn't come up, only his number starting in +44, then about an hour later his name mysteriously appeared again. In the Call Log this is also happening where number are shown but not the name.
Could this be somehow to do with the phone not recognizing number starting in '0' and '+44' because I think all the contacts I have on my WhatsApp, this does not happen with them and that's because WhatsApp saves them as +44.
I can't really go through and change all my contacts numbers to +44 but that might not even be the issue. Does someone have a clue. Any help would be MUCH appreciated as often I don't even know who it is that called me or texted me.
Thanks.

Ive searched hundreds of posts but all the answers are the same. If you are annoyed by getting multi picture or pictures with words from iPhone users coming through as a slideshow or video, the simply install Handcent SMS and the problem magically goes away. We'll I've had Handcent for years and I still have the same problem. I've got it installed and it's set as the default as far as I can tell, I still get slideshows from my iPhone friends when the send multi picture mms messages. Can someone please tell me exactly how to make Handcent show these as single pictures where I can zoom in?
Affects me as well

This is also a problem for me. It's affected all of my Android devices.
It seems that when I receive an MMS from any other user (not just iPhone users) it will be displayed as a slide show instead of an image if the message was sent along with text. This happens even if the attachment is only one image.
It is also triggered if the sender's message has two or more images (even if no text).
I can't begin to describe how annoying this is. From internet searches this has been an issue since at least 2010.
Hello,
My Note 4 suddenly did not turn on (hard brick). I received a new device but had two worries (could not reset the old device, could not transfer from it).
Many of my apps autoloaded on the new Note (thanks Android). Pictures, videos, recordings, and screenshots on internal memory were gone and so were old text messages and voicemails. Is there no chance Android/Google stored this automatically somewhere? How do I check?
Why are pending text messages or voicemails not shown? How would I know who tried to contact me in the weeks that the old phone is broken?
In the future I'll save everything (pictures etc...) to the external SD. Can I do daily auto-backups with SMS Backup & Restore for texts? What about voicemails? Is there no way to prevent texts in transit from getting deleted - if my phone doesn't work how can I save texts I've never seen or read??
Thank you.
If you have set up a Samsung account on your phone it will back up sms mms every 24 hours but only on wifi. As far as voicemail if you use the stock voicemail app you can have it set up to forward all voicemails to your email address. From there you can listen to them through your email account.
