[Desire HD General] A-Dingo:
Normaly the phone should do this. And after I wipe my DHD a few month ago it did so!! Maybe I´m one of a few who get HTCS to work... lol

But after I lost all my sms I tried to restore them via HTCS without any succes!

Even my smsbackup+ ended up with a message that there ARE all messages!! So it seems that there is a rest in sms database which prevents smsbackup+ or HTCS to backup the sms...
[Desire HD General] lawrence750:
well here's my response from htc support:

This has only happened to me once, but either way it seems unlikely that updating the SMS service center number (when it's already correct) will stop this happening.. especially since he gave the wrong command as well (suppose it could have been a typo but still..) :rolleyes:
[Desire HD General] t4lent:
Yea, I don't think that's the reason for SMS disappearing. I never had the issue, though I'm using SMSbackup to be aware.
[Desire HD General] anheuer:
Dont know if this is already mentioned,

but its pretty clear this issue is due to the connection to the htc sense website.

i had this issue once and i disabled the services.

it never happend again.

i dont understand why people leave the service active even though they know the issue is not fixed yet and then complain about it happening again.

disable it and when its fixed... let someone else try it first :P

i know the service is cool, but i must say that i dont miss it.

ps. never forget to backup!
[Desire HD General] kujoswrath:
People with sense account disabled still have this problem! It's an Android bug
[Desire HD General] mrbubba999:
If its an Android bug, why is it not effecting everyone? I've not lost any text messages (I don't use HTC Sense)

Those that have, are they just using the stock SMS application?
[Desire HD General] sengork:
Depends on why the SMS db gets corrupt. Most cases involve a large number of SMS messages and/or SMS app crashing. And 3rd party apps have been reported to have similar issues.

Google have finally upgraded this issue from medium priority to high.

[Desire HD General] Eddie1506:
I've had this happen to me for the first time in three months. I don't use HTCSense.com, nor stock SMS app, but ChompSMS. Fortunatelly, SMS Backup & Restore backs up my SMSes every night automatically, so no damage here.
[Desire HD General] saayinla:
I ve just opened up my sms only to discover that my 5000+ sms has disappeared. It's a pain in the bum... I have a backup but still not good.
[Desire HD General] colintd:
And me.....

Like so many others I've hit the identical problem. 3pm hundreds of messages, 4pm none. No forced restarts, no HTC Sense, no messages! I've just put in place a backup process, but to be honest I hadn't even considered this risk existed, never having lost a message from a phone in the last 15 years of ownership. Grrrhhhh.....
[Desire HD General] saayinla:
This has happened to me 3 times yesterday again and its starting to get more frustrating...
[Desire HD General] Springdale:
For me it happened yesterday, second time and I have my DHD for one week...
[Desire HD General] bryant_16:
That's bad. Anyone alerted HTC already?
[Desire HD General] maruchan78:
Happened to me to - not good :( HTC need to prioritise looking at this and make an official statement on the status unless they want some bad PR coming their way. This is unacceptable, particularly for business users who may have critical information within SMS messages. It usually takes an article published of some sort as messages being passed from 'helpdesk' staff to tech teams doesn't carry much weight. HTC Sense's continued failing is another example. Anyone able to pull strings to get an article written on this?
[Desire HD General] bunt83:
it's NOT a HTC problem, it's a know android problem.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5669

Looks like google are working on it. In the meantime I'd suggest ensuring your SMS's are backed up people!
[Desire HD General] Springdale:
Happened again, luckily Titanium Backup performs well... I disable auto sync with HTC Sense since now it happens almost daily for me.
[Desire HD General] bryant_16:
That's bad. HTC sense still available? I didn't use it in the beginning at all.
[Desire HD General] t4lent:
Haha, nice joke I told. My sms have been deleted at the weekend, I didn't use the auto backup function in SMSbackup.. From now I will! -.-
[Desire HD General] MattSkeet:
This is a 3rd time my sms disappeared. It's annoying. Sms backup + restore cannot restore wtf???
[Desire HD General] j3yps:
this is the first time it happened to my, woke up and 6+++ messages GONE! this is really annoying!
[Desire HD General] atifhasan86:
just happened to me too.

tried rebooting, killing and restarting the message app, but to no avail.

lost some 2k sms. :mad:

what i've seen throughout this thread, nobody is using any other SMS app like handcent or any other, so is the problem only with the STOCK MESSAGING APP from the ROM????

Even i didn't use any other app, but now i'm considering using one, just a thought.

FYI, i'm on LeeDroid ROM, rooted phone with updated kernel v 2.0.3, also from LeeDroid.

any comments from someone who's using any other messaging client other than the stock version and who may (UNFORTUNATELY) have lost his texts :confused:, would help a lot.

Thanks.
[Desire HD General] Eddie1506:
Actually, it happened to me a couple of times with ChompSMS.
[Desire HD General] bryant_16:
That's bad!! That's why we have to backup our SMS but still it is not acceptable..
[Desire HD General] leppie:
Everytime I read this thread, I backup my SMS's :D
[Desire HD General] noisy_lightning:
Mine did it again the other day for the third time, thankfully it restored fine from a backup.

However, it seems that I recived an SMS (someone later called me to see why I never replied) and it would explain why my phone vibrated too. When I went into the inbox though they had all gone. So looks like in my case that the incoming message somehow corrupted the database maybe?
[Desire HD General] Springdale:
Exactly the same happened for me.
[Desire HD General] bobbyphoenix:
Just happened to me. :mad: Stock ROM on 1.72.405.3 Booooo!
[Desire HD General] Eddie1506:
The thing is, default messaging app still runs in the backgroud, alongside with ChompSMS. It also reacts to received SMSes, just not displaying notifications.
[Desire HD General] bryant_16:
What do you mean?
[Desire HD General] Eddie1506:
I meant exactly what I wrote. Stock SMS app still runs and reacts to new SMSes, just as ChompSMS or any other 3rd party SMS app. The only thing that it does not do is show notifications, because, you will normally turn them off if you use 3rd party SMS apps so you wouldn't get two notifications at the same time.
[Desire HD General] j3yps:
no fix yet?
[Desire HD General] bryant_16:
Nope. Not at the moment.
[Desire HD General] sromer:
It happened to me today :(

I lost about 2000 messages

Stock DHD with 1.72
[Desire HD General] Springdale:
Anyone ever experienced this on Gingerbread builds?
[Desire HD General] momboj:
You can install SMS Popup to solve this problem. Works fine in my case.
[Desire HD General] paultje_007:
Happened to me too. Just read on a dutch forum it's because your phone tries to sync with HTCSense.com and somewhere inbetween something goes wrong. Turning off your HTCSense syncing should solve this from happening again....

Cannot back this up yet.

I also still try to fully function HTCSense.com but don't get it.

Read my post at:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11635361&postcount=953

Because I think if you have all those SMS on your phone but none at HTCSense.com and both are syncin' with eachother, HTCSense.com might overrule and says SMS=0 and sent this sync to your phone... so your phone will also show sms count = 0 (so it will delete all sms you had!)

That is my conclusion....

PS: just read on a different forum:

HTC is undertaking an upgrade to HTCSense.com in order to enhance the web experience for our customers, extend service availability and increase service quality and uptime. During this process, new user accounts will be entered into the upgrade program and will have access only to core features that protect and help manage your phone, including find my phone, call and message forwarding and lock and erase my phone. Once the upgrade is complete, additional features will be added into new accounts. Existing accounts will not experience any feature changes

Now anybody know when the upgrade is finished????
[Desire HD General] bryant_16:
Hahah.. I rather not have those upgrades, I'm alright with syncing my SMS to gmail by the way..
[Desire HD General] Springdale:
Would you please stop speculating about HTCSense.com being the cause of the problem? :)

It has been discussed multiple times that this is a general android issue happening on non-HTC phones as well.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5669
[Desire HD General] sanjayng:
This happened to my phone today. Updated in the Android bug list as per the above post.
[Desire HD General] :
Happened to a work colleague two days ago, he does NOT have HTCsense.com installed. Lost every text.
[Desire HD General] zhix:
just happened to me this morning, all SMSs gone .. and i am NOT syncing to HTCsense.com.
[Desire HD General] zhix:
Check out HTC's reply .. sigh .. how do i tell him that his advise is nonsenese without sounding rude?

[Desire HD General] maruchan78:
Just happened to me :( Any sign that HTC/Google even seriously looking at this?
[Desire HD General] shamps:
M the latest victim... happenned to me for the first time.... running stock rom....
[Desire HD General] A-Dingo:
Last week it happend to me twice after nearly four month after the last time. Interestingly in both cases after I used heavily the camera - maybe there is a coincidence?

I´m still using a stock ROM and thanks to smsbackup+ everything is fine for me.

And I´m signed in to htcsense - but its not working for me... ;)

Cheers!
[Desire HD General] iamLanvin:
happened to me 30 minutes ago.

heard 3 text messages coming in, i was driving so i did not check right away. when i got home, pressed the "Messages" shortcut and then it only showed the white loading screen. Waited a while and i thought that a restart would fix it. Did not, sadly.

I do not have htcsense on my phone btw.
[Desire HD General] gibovl:
happened to me just 15mins ago.. i was texting people.. then played a game..

then someone texted me.. i went to messages but it was taking awhile to open up.. i restarted my phone.. when i went to msgs.. i only had 6 sms. I had more than 1000 sms..

i tried to backup my sms to gmail via an app.. and it backed-up ELEVEN [11] sms.. but my inbox only has 6!!!
[Desire HD General] xazac:
Just got this problem too, I received a new SMS, and when I opened it any message was deleted :/
[Desire HD General] Camelbak:
With CM7, I set the preference "automatic delete SMS" to off. Didn't meet this issue
[Desire HD General] theh0g:
I have this problem all the time for 4 months now. I do use SMS backup and restore, so I can get my messages back, but it's anoying doing same thing almost every week. HTC's support is even worse than Nokias. If they don't start acting normal, I'll switch to iPhone I guess, you pay more, but with Apple at least things and support work and they actually read and reply to bug reports.
[Desire HD General] mlm00:
I have the same problem, at first I must think that it is because I've install the application call Tasker. Looks like I was wrong. I am using stock rom with root and S-off and I change a SMS application to Handcent. For a while now, the SMS disappear problem has not occure again. I am thinking that is becasue of the stock SMS app problem and dump the SMS message db. Anyone any input?
[Desire HD General] sanjayng:
Is this resolved with Gingerbread?
[Desire HD General] Rudios:
This morning I experienced this problem. First round 11 I tought I felt the vibration signalling for an alert and when I looked at my phone, the notification led was blinking green. BUT there was nothing, no sms, mail or missed call. Upon opening my sms app I found that all my sms-es were gone. I've sms backup running scheduled backups each 6 hours and found out that the 6 am morning backup was already empty :s

After reboot I was able to restore, which failed before rebooting. Also the notification led kept blinking until restart.
[Desire HD General] maarten00:
I had the exact same thing last week. Led blinking, but no notification to be found anywhere. The only difference is that I didn't have any backups..
[Desire HD General] dreamwearl:
I've got the same problem this weekend.

Now I'm using Sms backup app.

So I wont loose them again.

I hope this will be quickly fixed. cause loosing sms aint funny.
[Desire HD General] eske4e:
just happened to me for the 3rd time

I have a HTC Desire HD running 2.2.1

smsbackup and restore is a god send at least this time

I'm doing a few manual handcent backups too - just in case
[Desire HD General] shithead:
Nope, google still hasn't fixed this :-(
[Desire HD General] Springdale:
Don't know why, but now I haven't experienced the problem for almost two months... Before that, there were occassions when it happened 2-3 times a week... Anyone experienced spontaneus improvement on the issue?

Knock on wood :)
[Desire HD General] freecom2:
Echo this. It still occasionally happens, but it's only every few months - and SMS Backup & Restore means that any loss is minimal. Since it looks like Google doesn't feel the need to budge on this one any time soon, I'll just live with it and keep my fingers crossed that it's not too rare an occurrence.
[Desire HD General] ShaunD103:
Same situation here. They were completely wiping on average every two weeks but now its been a whole month! Wooo!

Still randomly restarting on a daily basis though....
[Desire HD General] ABorgh:
I think it has something to do with HTCsense.com because every time this happens for me is when HTC sync is syncing
[Desire HD General] smnrock:
Today i got this problem and i too have handcent as well as tasker...could it be tasker causing this? :(
[Desire HD General] noisy_lightning:
I dont think Tasker is to fault, I had the SMS issue long before I installed and started using Tasker so I think its more a core Android flaw.

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD General] sromer:
It happened to me again this morning :(

But luckily i've been using SMS Backup & Restore from the marketplace since last time it happened :D (i did lose like 5 messages though)
[Desire HD General] audiobookman:
just happened again to my phone, this must be the 8th or 9th time its happened since i got the phone. like the previous poster i backed all my sms to my google account so ive not lost anything - but it is highly annoying when it happens.

im using leedroid.

i cant wait for the next update and hopefully see the back of this problem
[Desire HD General] sromer:
It happened AGAIN last night, weird thing was my phone vibrated to say i got a message, but when i checked there was nothing there and they had disappeared.

But them 5 mins later i actually got a message and when i opened it, my messages all reappeared :D
[Desire HD General] skimminstones:
has happened to me 4 or 5 times now over the last 5 months or so. I thought it might be the amount of messages but the most ive had on there was around 1500 and i see others in this thread have had a lot more than that. Im not rooted and currently on 1.72 software.

I dont think its a specific android flaw as no other android phone ive had in the last 3 years has done it, only the dhd.
[Desire HD General] sromer:
It happened AGAIN :(

I lost all my messages, and while i was restoring them i got a message and they all came back and i was stuck with 2 versions of everything.

Then i got home and i went to check my messages and they all disappeared again :(

It there a fix for this? or are we all stick with it until HTC fixes it???
[Desire HD General] audiobookman:
im hoping the gingerbread update will solve this, ive just updated and am very happy with the performace of leedroid again.

anyone lost any sms with gingerbread yet?
[Desire HD General] ozzyo99:
Weird, never had this issue on my release day model, but I was running 1.3x firmware until switching to LeeDroid 3.0.1 last week.
[Desire HD General] sromer:
I never had the problem with version 1.3

It only started after i updated to 1.72 ( the firmware htc pulled)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jickey:
First of all, the setup:

Myns Warm Two Point Two RLS 3 with netarchy toastmod 4.2.1 bfs-bfq-havs-more-smartass kernel.

I was in Orlando this past weekend for a family vacation and decided to test out a few things. I wanted to see how well 4G worked and how bad the battery drain was because I'm taking a business trip to Vegas in a few weeks. I turned it on, and it sat there "scanning" forever. That's all it ever said, until I turned it off a few hours later. Maps show that I should have had 4G coverage. I'm not sure if it's a ROM issue, a kernel issue, a Sprint issue, or something else entirely.

My second issue - I use Handcent SMS exclusively. I would snap a picture with the phone camera and share it via SMS. It would automatically resize and then try to send, but never would send. I kept getting "generic network failure" on any image that I tried to send. I finally got irritated enough to try and just email the pic, but it wouldn't even go through my Exchange email (at this point I didn't try Gmail, because I was ready to toss the phone in a pond...) I can receive MMS, but seems like I can't send any pictures. Anyone have any ideas what may have been going on?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] postwick:
I have found that you can't send MMS with 4g enabled. Seems to be something wrong with the phone or Android in that it doesn't switch to the appropriate protocol automatically. you have to turn off 4g, let it send, then turn 4g back on.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jickey:
Fair enough - but once I determined that 4G wasn't going to connect, I turned it off. The MMS was being sent with only 3G enabled.
[General Questions and Answers] doortodoorsalesman:
I have an HTC touch 2 running WM6.5 with a custom rom. I use internet sharing all the time with my laptop (running XP) while at work. Much cheaper than the stupid dongles :-)

I am looking at getting an ePad tablet pc running android 2.1 or 2.2 for Christmas.

My question is: can I simply turn on the internet sharing on my phone and plug the usb into the new android tablet; and will android pick it up as a generic internet sharing device like my laptop?

If not is there an app that will allow this?

I prefer to use the usb cable while sharing the connection as it keeps my phone charged up at the same time. If this is not possible will I be able to share the connection over blue-tooth, or will I have to resort to running a mobile WiFi router app on my phone?

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] doortodoorsalesman:
I'm really surprised that I have no replys to this?

Hasn't anyone tryed it yet??
[General Questions and Answers] jagpoag:
Quick google search turned up a few ways to make this happen. I for one always used MyWY for my IPhone and used it as a wifi hotspot for my ipad when i had both of them. I'm seeing that you can of course do this with your phone and an android tablet also. If you do not want to use the "hotspot" option and just use the wifi on your tablet to connect to your cellphone to use the internet connection, you can do one of the following instead:

bluetooth using PDAnet (from what I've read) and you can also use the USB connection to tether the two for use of your cellphones internet. I've found nothing that states this is the case for ALL tablets though. From what I see, a lot of the tethering options out there that people are using require you to install a driver to use your cellphones internet connection with a PC/laptop with an USB cord. So using the USB might be hit and miss in this case.

I would look into the wifi hot spot option or using bluetooth. The only drawback to this is the battery usage on your cellphone is going to be HIGH.

I'm not sure if that is of any help to you at all man. It's the best I can come up with right now though, sorry. I hope you get it figured out:)

I'm using Archos 101 and HTC tytn WM 6.1

I had the same concern for my new bought Archos tablet. It can't pair up with my WM 6.1 and therefore I'm seeking other ways to solve it. such as finding software to let my WM6.1 act as a Wireless router so that my Archos device can connect to it as normal Wifi connection. Hope someone can give advice to this post. thanks. :)
[General Questions and Answers] Thresher:
WMwifirouter should get you guys going. I guess if your phone will connect via usb to the tablet that it will get it's power via that but I can't imagine that the output USB power is enough to charge the phone over it's discharge rate. I guess I mean to say that you will extend your phone's battery life but it will still drain while connected.

That's all I can offer.

Oh HTC has a wifi router app that was free on my last phone...well free in the NRG romz.

Nexus 7 (2012) gets Mobile Internet from WM6.1 Smartphone via BT

I'm still using my WM6.1 Smartphone but carry an Nexus 7 Android Tablet around, too. So I decided to couple them! ;)

Setup was easy:

1. Connect devices via BT

2. Share Internet Connection (WM Smartphone)

3. Use Internet Connection (Android Tablet)

4. Enjoy! :)

It's similar to using the connection on Ubuntu: http://www.serkey.com/ubuntu-intern...-between-windows-mobile-and-linux-bejgbv.html

go to the CS website, then go to the discover center.

click on the HTC Hero page, there is a 2.1 downloadable update.

download that on ur comp, then run it on your desire.

Is it me or do Slayher's kernels seem to be head and shoulders above any other dev's in terms of speed? I'm running Pete's BB V0.5 and with Slayher's 900mhz kernel I'm getting about 1300 on Quadrant benchmarks. On Chevy's I was hitting about 1200 with his 1ghz lv kernel, and about the same with P3droid's. Chevy's ran a little cooler than P3droid's and Slayher's, though.

Anyway, what are you guys getting in terms of battery life from these? Any voltage, speed or ROM.

Please no flaming if this is a noob-ish question.
