This update is only applicable to ROM version is less than 1.66.XXX.X.
[HD2 General] wenghui:
I've had 1.66 on my phone for the past couple of weeks. It's fixed all the SMS/Phone hanging issues I had with the 1.48 ROM. No tweaks, all stock.
[HD2 General] Shockwave Pyrotechnics:
I've had no sms issues since upgrading to 1.66 a week or so ago, and I had the stuck sms problem on a daily basis. Since installing I have not applied any "clever" tweaks like bsbtweaks only cosmetic stuff like the BIOS boot screen stuff, and installed a few games. Phone is working perfectly. However not sure any tweak could be responsible cus people flash back to the original and still get probs.... it's a flippin mystery!
[HD2 General] hehe169:
I still using the 1.48 version. And I update the sms hotfix from HTC which dated at 2010-01-30, I think this hotfix already solve the problem. Cause I everyday back to home after leave the lift, it must stuck the sms into the out box. Now I haven't this happen again until now.
[HD2 General] s2k_vdu:
I have also 1.48. Today the sending message remained in outbox. I put the update and it's ok now. Hope to remain so.
[HD2 General] Bimme:
Incredible !

The 1.66 Rom has come to Germany finally !

visit www.htc.com/de for the German and Greece Rom...

edit: flashed to 1.66 and Messaging Version is 2011.1932, but i can´t install the newest sms hotfix (8007_07) containing the newest Messaging Client. Not Compatible with your device...

Any suggestions?
[HD2 General] Bimme:
found an edited cab file from starbase64 containing the 8007_07 patch...

anyone have it running ? 1.66rom with 8007_07 patch?
[HD2 General] johnk1973:
Any chance of posting cab here?
[HD2 General] Bimme:
not sure if i´m allowed to....

let´s try...

Note:

This file was posted on a german forum to work with the german version of ROM 1.66.

I don´t know if it´s language specific, and don´t even know if it is uninstallable. I´ve not tested it...

[HD2 General] arcades:
Thank you. This .CAB works for me. My HTC HD2 is from UK.

I'll report if it fixes sms problem.
[HD2 General] mrboliao:
It doesn't happen very often, but the sms stuck problem is still there after upgrade to 1.66 for me.
[HD2 General] BLAST3RR:
Absolutely no problems past couple of days since 1.66 release (over 100 SMS sent).

Though sometimes the app kind of turns buggy.. But maybe that's because of the 700+ sms stored in that single thread.. xD
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
had the same issue today, went on for about 4/5 hours, nothing worked when trying to fix it, all of a sudden got replys through from texts send in the day, highly fustrating, but glad its sorted.
[HD2 General] mrdec:
Any tweaks?
[HD2 General] vid200:
I just tried this solution, reflashing new rom, new radio, everything, still not working. I tried my sim in another phone, everything works great.

I am getting mad.
[HD2 General] dudu7559:
I didn't manage to install this patch.......... the installation procedure failed.:(
[HD2 General] jeane:
i continue to have problems. after installing the 1.66 rom and everything working ok for a week or so, i return to my old chestnut of sms messages being sent to the wrong person. right name, wrong number attached. hard resets fix it for a little while but frankly i'm a little tired of resetting everything every time this happens.

htc said that they will repair (ie install the latest firmware) if this continues to happen. what do you guys think?
[HD2 General] SexedUp:
Ups... I had no time for months to look for a solution of SMS bug... but do I understand correctly that the issue is STILL NOT FIXED? The patience of HTC was probably longer then patience of the people, I found this threat on 99th page here! So guys did you just gave up or the solution exists?

I loved that phone on beginning but after 4 months of same problem I hate such piece of crap :(
[HD2 General] jeane:
sexed up, i forgot i had posted on this thread. i've incorrectly started another if that is of interest to you.

[HD2 General] vid200:
I had the same problem and I got it fixed yesterday. now the phone is best one I ever had.

Te latest ROM has all the hotfixex so no need to worry about it, take your sim out, put it in another phone, delete SMS center number, rewriitte it again and put sim back in HD2. There you go, SMS problem gone.
[HD2 General] lbhocky19:
i cant believe this problem is still happening this long after the phone came out.

im all excited to get the hd2 on tmo in the us next week but now im worryin the problem may still be there even for it.
[HD2 General] leoni1980:
its never happened to me on tmobile in the uk.
[HD2 General] jeane:
done. thanks very much! i hope it works for me too. can i ask how you found out that was a fix?

leoni, i am on tmobile uk.
[HD2 General] leoni1980:
ive had three HD2s and didn't have a single problem with sms. I flash new roms pretty regularly too.the only issue I ever have with messaging is that it slows down. my contacts are all synced via exchange and I have none on the sim card or phone itself...maybe that has something to do with it...
[HD2 General] jeane:
i don't think the problem applies to all hd2. it appears very hit and miss.

but ooh, i'm not familiar with synching via exchange. i'm always a bit nervous having all my contacts stored on my sim card. i'll look into it. thanks.
[HD2 General] leoni1980:
well ive had a prototype HD2, a release model and more recently a branded then unlocked model with the improved screen hardware. on neither phone did I have an issue in any way whatsoever.

I use Gmail exchange sync, a remnant of my T-Mobile G1 days. Fortunately I'm jumping ship back to Android soon.
[HD2 General] vid200:
My network operator did not me. But it worked.
[HD2 General] Gushfevah:
I sent a message to a friend last night, but the message ended up going to another number, not even in my phone, and when i looked in sent items, it said it had been sent to my friend.

Such a stupid bug
[HD2 General] jeane:
if you look under "view message details" in conversation mode, does it say your friend's name with a wrong number attached?

vid2000, so far so good for me too. i tried to trip it up the other night but no luck. let's hope it is the cure all. thanks again.

SMS troubles

Hi All,

I've got ROM 1.66.479.2 (76641) WWE, Radio 2.07.51.22_2

The outbound SMSes stay in "Outbox", are not sent and they never ends in "Sent items". :mad:

I tried to install official hot fix LEO08007, but I was not succesful, alert appeared "This is not compatible with this device". I also tried to install the cab file, but alert again - "you do not have sufficient rights". :confused:

Please, can you give me advice? Sorry for my english :cool:

Regards

Matyfo
[HD2 General] Gushfevah:
Nope, says the right name and the right number too
[HD2 General] oliverde8:
I noticed that I have this trouble with only one of my sim cards.

With my french card SFR sometimes my SMS get stuck. restarting the device solves the probleme for 2 or 3 days. I had the same probleme withmy old phone sonny erricson P1i

On my other card not SFR I used my phone 2 weeks without having this same probleme. And my P1i doesen't have also the probleme with this other card I have.

I decided to take out my old Nokia 3310 a classic. On that phone my 2 cards work perfectly well.

My sim card is new I just chnaged it last year. 255 contacts so I don't think it is an old version. I may try to ask for a new one to try it out. But first I will try the Fix.
[HD2 General] Sim0nM:
So far the only way of fixing the problem i've found is sending 2-4 messages to myself (1 message usually doesn't work) then usually all the other messages go through.
[HD2 General] Aranbas:
not just vodafone i have same problems with my sms and my network is t-com so this is problem with htc not your mobile operator. This delays of sms and alarm problems are biggest ****holes on leo. I am going to buy nokia 3310 :)
[HD2 General] SexedUp:
I emailed to HTC with including link to this discussion and directly asked not to recommend this change of SIM as as useless
[HD2 General] meeporox:
Solution?

Not sure whether this is the solution or not. I have changed all the numbers to 00(country code)123456789 instead of +(country code)123456789 or just 0123456789. So far i have no problem sending and receiving text, We will see:)
[HD2 General] l3v5y:
I have a SIM free WWE HTC HD2 (came with 1.43 ROM), the 2.04 radio ROM and the 2.5.1920... manila, I haven't experienced any of the lost messages and I text a lot... I've now got manila 2.5.1921, 1.48 ROM and 2.05 radio ROM and still have no issues.

I can cab up Manila/HTC Messaging if people want, though I can't do the same with the radio or ROM...
[HD2 General] mrturq:
i also got this problem, just two minutes ago.

i dont get it.

i have to restart my phone and send another sms to send all the sms

or else they wont send.

im going to try what meeporox did.
[HD2 General] tunekas:
same problem

I'm having the same problem here with my HD2 with Vodafone PT sim card...
[HD2 General] tripleA:
as far as i know mine is working well, Vodafone UK here

i dont know but the more that people are getting their devices the more bugs are being reported ....*grumbles*
[HD2 General] meeporox:
any luck? i have been sending text and receiving text without any problem today:)
[HD2 General] basst85:
I received a answer from HTC.

It's a standard reply, i think :(
[HD2 General] gus8511q:
i got the same problem here

[HD2 General] Paul-Lemonidis:
HTC support is a joke

Do HTC come up with any sensible options rather than stating the obvious that most of us will have tried already?
[HD2 General] ianrush:
Same Problem here with H3G/Drei/three and A1 both in Austria.
[HD2 General] ijob:
Just to let u know folks,

I have the sms issue and have hard reset 3 times with no success, I have also tried another, new sim with no success.

I also have the pink blob camera issue. The phone is going to HTC for repair. Hopefully I will be able to report back in 7 days.

This issue makes my phone useless.
[HD2 General] kwazydog:
Guys, I havnt time to check this at the moment, but maybe someone could run a test. I have the same problem describe here by others. I did just notice though that an SMS didnt send when i exited the SMS client very quickly (before recieving the delivery message)...this message became stuck and required a restart/new sms to get it sent. On the next sms I sent though I waited and it seemed to send fine.

As such I am wondering if its related to how quickly we exit the HTC SMS client after hitting the send button? I will test this myself some more when I have a free moment.
[HD2 General] tonesy11:
I have the same problem, I don't exit the screen straight after sending the sms.

I'm on vodafone uk, i've tried resets and also spent half an hour on the phone to vodafone, the messages just keep building up in the outbox and it's entirely random when they'll get sent. i've turned on delivery reports so i know when they get sent and i've just had a del rep for a text i sent to my brother yesterday afternoon. so i'm sending this phone back, texting is prob the main thing i do with my phone and it's fiddly enough typing one in the 1st place on this never mind whether it will actually send or not.
[HD2 General] msedhom:
Same problem here. In Australia, and on optus. Problem is fixed with a soft reset, then send a message to myself.
[HD2 General] tonesy11:
tried hard resets, soft resets, texting myself, checking networks, updating network, disconecting and reconecting from network, checked sim card in my other phone (works fine), calling vodafone (who didn't have a clue) still getting the same problem. prob gonna go for a blackberry as i don't want another touch screen after this.
[HD2 General] Belynda:
Same problem here. I had not realised until I read this thread and tested the text. I have emailed HTC as requested. Working after taking out the battery and restarting. I will let you know how long it works for.

I have had to do a couple of hard resets since having the phone so that obviously did not cure the problem that I did not know I had :):confused:

New sim card here.
[HD2 General] docchris1980:
I've also e-mails support pointing out that i have tried, changing sim,soft resets, hard reset,s factory defaults,

hopefully the more people who e-mail the faster they will get out a fix!
[HD2 General] GToon84:
Same thing happened to me but only just found it out today. Over 10 unsent texts in my outbox. Not too happy about this and along with the other various problems I have called Vodafone and I am returning the handset.

Great phone and have loved it but too many niggling problems that I would imagine can't be fixed for a while (eg camera)
[HD2 General] tunekas:
maybe i found the source of the problem

I've turn off 3G network and in the last 24h i didn't have problem with sms, working only on GSM.

Let's try to confirm this solutions and work on a fix.

:)
[HD2 General] fredskis:
Does this problem happen to also prevent any internet access to your phone? I experience this problem as well as lack of internet (3G etc) access until I run connection manager again.

Also, have people turned off time synchronisation on Phone settings? I had to turn this off to prevent the phone asking me what (Australian) time zone I'm in every boot up and I'm fairly sure the problem surfaced after that. I have since turned it off to see if this helps.

I am on Three, Australia.
[HD2 General] msedhom:
I think its related to the internet somehow, because mine seems to happen whenever I disconnect a wifi connection, or the phone has been connected to the internet for some time, then all of a sudden all reception drops, and I lose converage. Then when I get coverage back, SMS doesn't work.
[HD2 General] mikeahlqvist:
Same for me... sporadic on Tele2 in Sweden.. really bad :-(
[HD2 General] fredskis:
Yeah, even though mine still has the H in the taskbar it has zero bars of coverage.
[HD2 General] blackb1ade:
Ditto this problem (another vodafone user) - although not quite to the same degree as some are reporting (it's happened to me once - power off/on solved it)

Haven't established exactly what instigated it, but may have been the result of fiddling with the wi-fi off/on thing

There does appear to be something up with the radio on this thing - but hopefully it'll get smoothed out once some kind chef cooks up a better radio stack for it :)
[HD2 General] Graf Zeppelin:
Same thing here, unbranded German ROM on T-Mobile.

SMS remain in Outbox intermittendly. Sometimes soft reset helps, sometimes HD2 must be started without SIM, after boot SIM is inserted.

Still SMS in outbox remain until new SMS is created and sent, then the rest will get transmitted.

Question: is anybody experiencing the same problem using a so called multi-SIM (several SIM cards with the same TelNo)?

Thanks!
[HD2 General] ageorgiou1984:
This is a joke. More and more people are getting this problem everyday and it's quite a major problem. I hope HTC hurry up and release a fix.
[HD2 General] Cseresnyés Gábor:
On my HD2 changing the "SMS Over" setting (GSM, GPRS, ...) does not solve the problem. Actually I have 2 messages in the Outbox permanently... :mad:

In the Outbox the "Retry send" option has no result. I think it does not depend on your service provider. It is simply a bug.

The only workaround is to send another (sometimes 2) SMS messages to flush the Outbox.

Has anyone a better tip?
[HD2 General] dakukishi:
sometime when i get SMS messages stuck in the outbox, i find by going to edit and then send will help push them out to who you are sending them to, i have only just begun trying this and so far is a good go around but i might just have been lucky both times.
[HD2 General] msedhom:
Has everybody been emailing HTC to bring this to their attention?

The more people contact them, the quicker they will release a hotfix!
[HD2 General] Naits:
Ive contacted HTC and given them a link to this thread.

They confirmed that there is a problem with sms and that it is now an escalated support issue - and that a hotfix is being worked on right now.

Although no ETA at this time.

Just said "soon/shortly".
[HD2 General] Belynda:
This is the 2nd reply I have had today. The first was asking for more personal details ie home address for some reason.

This is the reply!

Thank you for that information. I've escalated this issue and forwarded the information to a different departement that can investigate the issue further. For now I can only really suggest you keep an eye on htc.com for any upgrades relating to this. Best regards, Customer support team HTC Corp. Global Service Division http://www.htc.com/europe/CA_Hotline.aspx"
[HD2 General] kasperknop:
My HD2 with a danish rom has the exact same problem -.-
[HD2 General] ijob:
Received an email from HTC support:
[HD2 General] Confusion:
Hello everybody,

The sms problem happens with different htc or windows mobile phones,

The problem is mostly caused by a Band switch from the Phones.

For some reason when the phone constant switch from GPRS to G3 or H. and back again.

There is after a time that your phone will show you that it still switch but there is something wrong with the dataconnection so that is why sms will not be send (It Hangs).

Try to use your Phone a couple of days only on GPRS band (and that is NOT the one in the option sms service)

Tab on you screen Phone, Menu, Option, and then Band (the last one down) tab that, choose by network type GSM, and leave Frequency on Auto. tab Ready and Confirm with OK.

Try this option a couple of days and let me know if it work or not.

And yes you will lose the High Speed Connection G3 and H. for a couple of days.

Sorry for my bad English.

[HD2 General] Norw:
I will try this. You will hear from me at once if I still have the problem, or in a few days if I do not have the problem...
[HD2 General] SexedUp:
I got following answer from HTC on Saturday:

Dear Mr Moravec

Thank you for your enquiry about your HTC Touch HD2.

We are unable to replicate the issue you are experiencing at the moment.We would appreciate if you could provide the information below.

Please check the following:

- Check if unicode is activated on your handset if yes disable it.

- Check your SIM card is a 3G sim card.

- Check the format of the number being used:

- do the numbers used start with +44, 0044 for example

- Are there spaces or symbols in the numbers : ".", "(",")"," "

- Check if the issue is replicated with another SIM card on the same network (If feasible)

- Give us a list of all the applications installed on your mobile.

If these steps have not helped, please let me know by responding using the link provided and I will be happy to check again for you.

Best regards,

Olivier

Didn't tried any of them as my SMS were working till Sun evening. But I have only Unicode Switched On, I have all numbers in +XX format, Leo doesn't accept any special characters "(", ")" in number for SMS, so not used. I can't use another SIM for long time. So if anyone is able to do these checks it could help to HTC. But hopefully they already know what is the issue.
[HD2 General] juyin0711:
What is your ROM code version ?
[HD2 General] ageorgiou1984:
I must've got a lazy bugger from HTC that couldn't be bothered to deal with my call, this is the second reply I got from them:

Dear valued HTC Customer, HTC aims to consistently deliver high quality products and services to our customers. Due to the complexity of HTC software and the issues that can occur I would recommend that you call our support centre as it would be much easier to deal with your issue over the phone. If these steps have not helped, please let me know by responding using the link provided and I will be happy to check again for you. Best regards, HTC customer support team HTC Corp.
[HD2 General] Pixel:
I got a request for device details (rom version etc...) and they said they'd escalate it. I won't hold my breath.

Several of my failed sms were to "shortcodes" (i.e. 64455) on Voda, so putting +44 in front won't help much :p
[HD2 General] halling:
I have also posted support tickets at HTC sweden so hopefully they will fix this asap.

Seems to be working fine for me, O2 UK with O2 ROM.
[HD2 General] Z7vv:
I have been doing that for the last few days, since i got mine, in store last Wednesday in London. I rang up Vodaphone yesterday, stating the problem they said " i got no problems with my phone setting but as my sim is quite old, that could be the cause of the problem, to which they said, they are sending me one the next day, today. But i have not received nothing from them and it's now, 1 in the afternoon :(

Strange as it may be my sms where getting sent without problem up until 8.30 last night.

Unicode is ticked

Validity period, i changed from 1 hour to network setting

Block anonymous and advertisement message

ROM Version: 1.43.405.1 (70127) WWE

Overall, the fault lies in the HTC messaging, with lag e.t.c. Hotfix where are you?
[HD2 General] docchris1980:
at least i got a very quick response to my detailed info:

hopefully if everyone opens support cases and Head Office start getting bombarded with bug reports -they will fix it quick!
[HD2 General] Z7vv:
Just got a email from HTC Customer Service Representative, stating

I will be carrying this out asap, however, not to jump the gun, my sim has been in my last phone since day one of getting it, anyhow will give an update on things.

p.s they didn't say anything, on the lag in conversion mode.

[HD2 General] Z7vv:
Hi

I have not tried it let, as my phone is sending txt normal (without being stuck in the outbox) for the time being. :o

I see your with O2, Vodafone said "to change network other then your own and then change back to re-register with them. i did that before receiving the reply from HTC with their "fix".

Personal - phone - network - network selection - manual - selected one different - then change back.
[HD2 General] Pixel:
That's special. So, which of the connections on the SIM are for SMS again? From memory there are 6 active contacts on a SIM; is that 2 for phone, 2 for SMS and 2 for data? I'm not sure whether that's two for live and neutral, or 2 for incoming and outgoing. I'm only having problems with SMS, so I don't want to clean the wrong bit of my SIM.
