I have an issue when I am reading a text message and then click OK to go back to my inbox. It will show the inbox but also show remnants of the text message I just read at the top of the screen. It is locking the phone up for about 15 seconds. It seems as though it has to reload all of my messages in my inbox. This is a Tilt 2 with the stock rom on it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I didnt have much experience with the ATT stock ROM...but with most custom ROMS that include the HTC Text Messenger it is a common problem. I changed to a Custom ROM that doesnt include the HTC messenger....and uses the Windows Mobile Text Message interface..much quicker. The latest Energy ROMS utilize the Windows Mobile Text interface.
Might try clearing out old text messages if they are not important...should help with load times.
I've tried that. Upon browsing HTC's website I found this hotfix. Sounds promising.
Hotfix: Hotfix: TILT 2 Freezes in SMS application | 12.17.2009
This Hotfix when installed prevents the device from becoming sluggish and/or freezing in the SMS application on the device. This is NOT a ROM update and you will not lose your data. Also, these files will survive a Hard Reset so they need only to be installed once.

I am also facing this problem in MightyRom. Did you find any solution?

HTC released a new hot"fix" a couple days ago, but it only works for European phones, and according to at least one person, it doesn't work anyways.

I have heard that switching to a ROM without the HTC client does help.
Microsoft/HTC really should issue a new ROM. This is a well-documented problem to a basic, core function and it was known about immediately after WM6.5 was sent out. There's no way no one found out about this before it was released. Now I really don't like Apple products or their fanboys, but you have to give them credit in that they at least address their issues in some form or another.
Hey,..
You know the icon you get in your notification bar when the phone found a link between facebook contacts and phone contacts and whatsapp contacts ect.,
Then you click link it or dismiss.
I like this and works well.
but the last couple of day its been failing and annoying me.
there are 4 contacts its keep asking me to link.
over and over again.
doesnt matter if i link or dismiss.
i went tot the user in my phone list and linked them, seems to be good.
and then some time later it asks me again..
everytime the same 4.
Anyone else have this or know what this might be?
Its really really really annoying!
Thanx m8's!
On my phone I notice it appears briefly then goes away again a second later, like it's loading the info. It's never really bothered me though.
Have you tried deleting the 4 contacts and then adding them again?
I had the same problem for weeks...I had o2 listed in my contacts with various numbers (customer services, top up, overseas cs etc etc)
bugged me so much as no matter what i did, dismiss or request link it would keep coming back listing the same contact multiple times...ended up deleting the contact and not replacing ...didnt happen again ..
same here... whatsapp repetatively notifies me of contact links although they are already linked and there - drives me nuts. what should I delete? the contact on the phone or the contact on whatsapp ??!?

Exact same issue for me. Have not found a permanent fix yet...
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Hello,
I'm new to this forum but have done a google search for my problem. It seems like it's still an ongoing problem that doesn't have a solution as of yet.
My problem/issue is with MMS messages that contain more than one picture. I've got handcent and the original messaging app that came with my droid incredible.
The best way I know to describe the problem in detail is to give an example. Let's say I received an MMS message that contained 10 pictures. With handcent, I would download the message and it would/could come in in different ways. Sometimes it'll only show me the first picture(view thru some sort of picture manager), sometimes it would show me the first and last as some sort of a movie, and then sometimes it would show the entire set of pictures in a movie type format that would last for 1-2 minutes give or take with no way of scrolling from picture to picture. However, unless it shows all the pictures in a movie type format there is no way to view every picture unless I go into the messaging app that came on the phone.
When using the messaging app on the phone the MMS message comes in in 1 of 2 ways. The first is a slideshow that shows every picture with an option to scroll from picture to picture. I'm pleased with this and would like all of these types of messages to come in this way. The second is the pictures come in as attachments. With this I'm only able to view the picture one by one. I have to click on what picture I want to view then choose between "View or save to SD card" then choose how to complete the action by choosing between "View picture or ASTRO Image Viewer".
My question is why doesn't all MMS messages like this not automatically come in as a slideshow where I can manually flip between pictures, either with the messaging app that came with the phone or with handcent? Is this a droid issue, specific phone issue, etc.? Is there a system setting that needs to be changed or a phone update I need to do? I had an LG Dare before this phone and all messages like this came in in slideshow form and I could flip between each picture.
This is the only problem I'm having with this phone. It's rooted and I'm running RR rom. I just want to be able to view each and every picture by scrolling or thumbing through the message. It's just amazing to me that a phone with this capability would have an issue like this
Thanks for any help!

does anyone have an answer?
Hi all,
I have a brand new Huawei Ascend P6 with the latest update and I have two isssues with it.
More importantly, I don't receive notifications from Hangouts. This is despite the fact that the respective box for notifications is checked just like it should be, and all relevant settings are also enabled. All other notifications such as Gmail, SMS, etc. are working just fine, it's just the Hangouts that I'm having problems with. Perhaps reverting to Gtalk would help, but I have no idea if that's possible at all.
Second, sometimes it takes five or even more attempts to open Gmail attachments (simple jpgs). Any ideas as to how to resolve the issues, the first one in particular?
Thank you
Tomas
This is probably a marshmallow thing as I think my N5 did it too when I upgraded to 6.0, but does anyone have a solution, my google fu shows nothing. Tried with both swiftkey and google keyboard. I can long press messages to copy them, but in the text field I can't paste anything, or copy anything I may have written. I send links to my friends and this has been especially annoying when i have to hit two buttons then open in messenger to paste something.
If I remember correctly Lollipop didn't allow this either. I am thinking it's either a 'hijack protection' feature of Android 5.0+, or a bug in Messanger.
I'm 100% certain it worked fine up until 6.0. I believe it has to do with the new security setting of Draw Over Other Apps. For a while all pictures I clicked on in Messenger would open behind the chat window and I couldn't view them either, so it's fairly likely it is a problem on facebooks side. I was just curious why I couldnt find any threads addressing this.
Everytime I try to copy when I am in facebook Messenger it crashes, but I can paste just fine. It's just when I'm copying things.
Using an older, up to date LG Nexus 5 and alao unable to long press in FB messenger.
Having the same issue on the 6P. Can definitely tell something is happening behind the window. Overlay issue. Hate this. Because these overlays are messing up other permissions. Can't activate the microphone on Amazon for search because of overlays? Hate this! Have to open up the app ( as mentioned earlier) to copy and paste. Very time consuming.
I'm guessing no one found a solution to this issue? Same problem here, can't copy/paste and images or videos open behind the chat when using a chat head.
Same problem here after upgrading to marshmallow... Previously in lollipop I can easily do that. Also I no longer can swipe away and hide incoming call head up....
If you use the messenger app without chat heads, copy/paste workshop fine.

Exactly the same issue for me, it's a constant issue with very brief stints where pictures load as they should, any known fix for 6p?
was this ever fixed? Still have the issue on Nexus 5X 6.0.1
Started happening on my Note 5 yesteday but before it worked. Drives me insane as I lived in South America so I use translator a lot with some friends on certain things
Happens intermittently on my Nexus 6P on 6.0.1. Really gets on my nerves but good shout to the previous poster who mentioned opening the Messenger app directly, not the Chat Heads. Copying and pasting works fine that way.

I had that problem too! I cant remember if it started happening after updating to 6.0 or not. I disabled the facebook chat heads and I have been able to copy and paste fine after that.

If you turn off Chat Heads, you get the long press feature back. At least I do on my Samsung Galaxy S6 running Marshmallow 6.0.0.
You can, if you really want, turn it off, copy/paste, turn it back on.
Hope that helps!
Solved
I found 2 solutions on Samsung:
1. Using Messenger app ( not use chat head ), all androids can be paid.
2. On Samsung: using Clipboard in keyboard settings menu.
Solved
I run an HTC 10 but I have the same problem on all my phones running Marshmallow (HTC One M8, M9, M9+ and Sony Xperia Z5 Premium).
Sorted it by going into Settings/Apps/Messenger/Permissions then enabling Storage, location camera & SMS via the switches. I've found that enabling the storage permission usually solves it. It seems to be 'a marshmallow thing' and I've literally gone through all my apps & enabled them.
