I have a droid incredible and am running handcent sms. Today I noticed that it WILL NOT show my text thread with my mom! Its not in the list, and the messages from her dont show up in my notifications. The only way I can read them is if i click the "send message" button on her name in my phonebook and it shows the previous messages, otherwise I cant find it. It really sucks because I can never tell when she texts me! Any solutions? All of my other messages work perfectly
I have one thread in the format of "John Doe: asdfkjaskj" but then the rest are in the format of "Jane Doe (M 55555555). How can I take away or hide the call back number so that they all look like the first thread?
Only got this phone yesterday so am still finding my way round it, but ive figured out how to show just my phone contacts when i go into contacts. But, when i want to send a text and go to select a contact, its hwoign everything twice, the phone contact and the sim contact. Why is this and how do i get it to just show one or the other?
Ok so I just got the incredible today. My first Droid phone. I m trying to record and send video via text message. Two things here. 1st the video at 30 secs long seems to be too big to send. I have tried recording it in both formats and at the lowest settings..Any thoughts on how to make it smaller? I was able to send video up to a minute long on my Blackberry so not sure what the problem here is.
i have a a very important text thread running and for security reasons I would like to e-mail the whole lot at once to myself as a backup. (I can do individual messages but the thread has got so long there are not enough hours in the day!) It is also not clear when a whole backup is done to the PC whether text threads are backed up as well.
One of my SMS threads with someone has gotten so long (a LOT of messages over a year or so) that it's slowed right down and takes about 10 seconds to load up initially, and then trying to reply is all jumpy & slow, it basically seems to have slowed right down to be unusable. I'm assuming the thread has gotten too long and it's juggling it around in memory.
I'm just wondering if there's any way I can resolve this? If possible I'd rather not delete the thread, but will if there's no alternative. Is there a way I can save this thread and then start a new one with this person? Or back up the thread or something?
I got my galaxy s2 about a month ago, and it's not rooted When i go to delete SMS threads, the mesages are deleted but the 'shell' of the thread remains in the list of threads. This is whether I use the stock messaging app or GO SMS. I've also tried backing up my text messages, deleting them all, restarting the phone and then restoring the messages but it doesn't work. If I back up the messages and then delete them using SMS cleaner no messages are deleted (even after a phone restart) although SMS cleaner then says there are no messages to find when I try to repeat this step. The shell messages all have the date 1st Jan 1970. Is there a way to fix this without rooting my phone?
Iphone 5 - I am trying to delete message threads and once I do, I go to text someone else and it won't send. I just don't want those messages on my phone anymore. I have tried to restart my phone but when I do, the "deleted" threads show back up on my phone. I use iOS 7.1.
I purchased 4 BB Bold 9900's in June 2012 for a new small biz venture. None of the phones are retaining text messages and or previous threads past 30 days. i.e. If I scroll to the last text message, it will go back only 30 days....and the end date changes each day, with text messages falling off.
Upon purchase, I made sure to set all to "Keep messages forever". Does anyone have ANY suggestions? Our previous BB's did not have this issue, and these previous text threads are critical for referencing past text message threads and the data exchanged.
T-mobile Tech Support and RIM did not have an answer
I am not able to delete my sms, threads or conversations by any means. whenever I try to delete anything, it just keeps on loading and nothing happening after 5 mins of just loading.
When I receive group messages (whether from iphone, android, or windows) they show up in individual message threads. I have to download them, then they disappear from that thread and show up in the group thread.
I do not get a notification when they originally come through in the individual thread. I have to open my messages app and see an unread message. I do get a normal notification though once it has downloaded and transferred to the group thread.
I have group messages checked in the message settings I have data roaming checked in data usage settings I have AT&T I use the stock messaging
I also have this same issue if someone sends me a picture, no notification and it must be downloaded
Is it due to having background data restricted? I cannot turn it on to see if it changes anything because I have a small data plan and don't want to risk going over.......
Is there a function in lumia 610 that allows all of the conversations in the threads to be deleted all at a go, instead of one at a time? Also, is it possible to mass select contacts (when you are sms/mms-ing) by just checking the box besides the contacts instead of adding one contact at a time? I just got the phone 4 days ago hence I do not know the functionality very well.
I have started to experience a new issue with my iPhone 5 this week. There have been several instances where I have sent a picture message to someone, after I send the photo, i go back to the messaging thread a few moments later and it doesn't show the picture(s)... It's as if I never sent the photo. I have asked my friend(s) if they got the photos i sent, but they said no, so I have to send a 2nd time.
messages app continues to crash. All messaging stops working and all of my message threads disappear. the only thing that has seemed to work is restarting my phone. Happens at least once a day.
I've tried numerous times to post a photo to the focus and blur contest thread and I keep getting an error message that says "you may not have permission to do this action".
I have taken many pictures with my iPhone 4S (16GB) and have had no problems with iPhoto / Photostream. I have a Mid-2009 MacBook Pro 15" and am having issues using the images taken from my iPhone 4S and using them on blogs and/or threads. When I want to upload an image for my "profile picture" for instance, I continually get an "unable to upload error" from the website.I have tried several different websites and I continue to receive these messages with any image originally taken with my 4S. When I upload an image from iPhoto that was captured from my digital camera, the same website(s) have no problems uploading the image(s). It appears that any image I capture using my iPhone 4S, I can't seem to upload on any website EXCEPT for Facebook. For whatever reason, I keep getting "rejection" from all the blogs and threads I belong to.
i also got a threatening private message from him stating i'm not to talk bad about the razr, but it's ok for others to diss the bionic all day long rather rude and uncalled for, considering i'm a moto customer.the post in question that he deleted was indeed in the razr forum too.thought this was a discussion forum for opinions?
just got a samsung galaxy sII yesterday after updating from a htc incredible s..(which i found to be incredibily s**t). so far the samsung seems to be a nice phone. easy to use and very fast. theres only one thing thats causing me a bit of frustration, and thats that i cant seem to make my contacts appear with their profil pics in my message inbox next to their conversation threads. they all appear with the default silhouette. i've synced my facebook contacts with my phone contacts and done it both through the facebook app and the social hubb app. my background data and auto sync are activated aswell. i've tried using an app called syncmypix and that didn't work either. when a contact calls me their picture comes up, but im my messages their pics dont appear. i just got off the phone with a samsung representative and they told me i had to merge my contacts with my google account. so i did but this still didnt work, and then they told me its probably a problem with my network provider, which i think was just an attempt by them to get rid of me
EXAMPLE: I have an existing text message thread with a specific recipient that I want to keep undisturbed. I then want to send a brand new unrelated text message to the same recipient using the + (New message) icon at the upper right corner of the screen.he new text message invariably is appended to the bottom of the old thread, unrelated to the subject matter of the new text message that I want to send.
I got my incredible yesterday, and spent the whole day checking out apps, importing my pics, vids, and contacts from my Dare, all that good stuff.Most of what I did was done on Wi-Fi, and it was good. Today, I wake up, and my Wi-Fi is not able to connect to anything. I changed nothing, but to be sure, I reconnected to my router. To be EXTRA sure, I'm writing this to you on a computer hooked up to this same router.
My 3G works fine. Any ideas? I tried a different router. Same problem. I get the "A network error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen" message in the market, and a connection error message in any browser.
I'm seriously looking into jumping from the iPhone 3g to the Incredible. I've had my iPhone for almost 2 years and I love it. With the announcement of OS 4.0 I was a little disappointed with the lack of new features thats going to be included. Pretty much all the features are available now if you decided to jailbreak the iPhone.My ATT contract is up in a few months and i'm due for a new phone now but I'm going to wait and see what iPhone 4 has to offer before I finally make a decision. Just wondering if anyone jumped from an iPhone to the Incrediable and their thoughts on it.
I went to the apple store to try out some of the headphone/mic combos that they had there. Of course, it seems the majority of them do not work 100% with the Incredible.I tried using a pair of Klipsch in-ear buds, but the volume controls did not work, as they were made for the iPhone 3GS. The sound was really great, and at $100, a nice investment that comes with a 2 year warranty.
Anyone have any suggestions for a pair that will work 100% with the Incredible? I just feel like I'm not getting my money worth if I get a pair that doesnt completely work with the phone. leaves me a bit annoyed that they didn't just come with a set in the first place.
I'm a relatively new Incredible owner. I came from an Eris which was a nice enough phone but it was stuck with a hopelessly slow processor. As we all know, the Incredible came with 2.1. Any word on when we'll be getting Froyo? And I hope it's not as buggy as the 1.6->2.1 OTA update for the Eris! That was a nightmare. Almost everyone who did the OTA upgrade with the Eris had some kind of problem. Maybe the Eris' processor wasn't really up to the 2.1 software.I don't know, but it was a complete disaster. Here's hoping that the 2.1->2.2 update is glitch-free.
got HTC Incredible S import model before few days. It will be running "Froyo" when I get it, and I would like to know the best way to put Facebook on it. I already have Facebook on my computer. Do I just put "Facebook for HTC Sense" on it or do I install the stand alone Facebook app and which version?
Just got an HTC Droid Incredible and I really like it. I copied a couple of avi and wmv files to the phone's memory, but they don't play back properly. Do I need to install some kind of codec or something on it, or do I have to convert the file to a specific format?
After fighting with Zagg, I have an UNOPENED screen cover, which I do NOT want. I'd like to break even on it. Anyone who is interested, I'll ship it to you for a whole $7. Just reply to this thread and we'll work out the details.
Should I get an Evo with Sprint or a Incredible with Verizon? Sprint has the 4G network, but I hear Verizon is going LTE? Will the incredible work on LTE? should I wait?
