New SMS Hotfix no longer on HTC website? - HD2 General

I'm not sure if I'm just looking in the wrong place, but I can't find the latest SMS hotfix on HTC website anymore. Is it because of some issues with the hotfix?

No waiting time to send an sms, 50% faster and a highlight of the last recieved sms...
So I don't know why it isn't online anymore but it works...

Something has corrupted my message notifications, so I no longer recieve sounds for messages and emails etc. Enough though the hot fix addressed the SMS loading thread issue, I bet it has caused the issue I currently have, as I havent installed anything else. The SMS loading issue may have been annoying at times, but there were easy work arounds. Not hearing or feeling when a message comes in is damn annoying!

After installing this hotfix on my phone, I downloaded my archived messages (about 2000 of them) and tried the SMS tab. Everything worked great, apart from the known and reported issues about the display going a little odd when it had loaded all messages.
Everything was fine and then my phone suddenly started running slower than my old HD used to. Everything was stuttering and laggy, and I mean the whole phone - not just the SMS tab.
After numerous restarts and turning things off and on again, I finally re-archived all my text messages so that there were none on the phone and guess what.... it's fine again now.
The hot"fix" wasn't so hot if you ask me.

I'm using 1.48 official. I'm gonna leave it till 1.6 comes out before I choose whether or not to go unofficial.

I'm not sure what this thread is about, but I recently got my HD2 and it won't send all my SMS. Is this what the patch is for?

nope there for is the first update.
This update or hotfix is for the slow loading sms page when having a lot of stored messages.

It does look nice, but I'd probably turn it off straight away as I'd never use it!

Its available in the Middle eastern website

I sent an email on the HTC Website and I got a reply that Hot Fix was pulled out because of compatibility issues.
Edit: by the way, they said a new one will be released soon.

Does anyone have a problem with PocketCM 0.24 with the conversations not showing up?

I have used several iterations of PocketCM, 0.23 being the last one before going to 0.24. I uninstalled 0.23 properly and put 0.24 on. For some reason it's really flaky when it comes to showing the message threads. It will display correctly that there are text messages for a certain person, but when I click on that person, it will either say "No Messages", or it will only show some of the messages, usually just the most recent one. If I go back and forth enough times, it will show all the messages, then if I go back and forth again, only part of the messages (usually the most recent ones) will be there. Same goes for messages that I sent, they show up right after they have been sent, but when I come back right after looking at the contacts, the messages that I have written will have disappeared, just to come back again along with all the others at some time later.
PocketCM is installed in device memory.
I have cleared out all my messages just to make sure nothing was corrupt there, so I am working with all new messages.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled it.
I have used different themes.
I leave it running in the background at all times so that the longish initial load time won't slow my phone down.
Am I the only one with that problem, or has anyone else encountered this.
I have a Sprint Touch with the original 6.0 ROM.
Thanks for any help!
i have seen this too....only on one contact...the one person i have a picture set for that i also sms with....why don't you post this in the pocketcm thread???
Which one? There's quite a few....questions like these usually get lost in big threads like that
Did you have the same problem with an earlier version of PocketCM? All my previous versions worked fine as far as that was concerned.
I get the same thing too. its intermittent. im sure it's a little bug they'll fix soon..
Ok cool....thanks... thought my phone was going crazy or something!
mine as well. i've opened a thread in tene's forum: http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?15,10912. Please post a comment there so he know that it's a common problem.

I deleted the contact picts and i have not had a problem since.

Update for HTC HD2 – SMS Function Update

I am not sure if anyone mentioned as yet but official htc site has the following hotfix available
"This update for HTC HD2 messaging lets you reach out to your friends and family with instant notifications. Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers just that: fast and reliable SMS messaging. "
Note: This update is only applicable to ROM version is equal to 1.49.XXX.X, or lower.
Does not solve anything. Still have the same problem on SMS.
Ive not noticed any problems at all, what is it supposed to fix?, And whar does it not fix lol.
i dont have any problems with my hd2 either but i still applied it.
I've applied it and my phone is sending/receiving SMS perfectly, just as it always has. It's a bit sad but I love installing updates.
I haven't had any problems with SMS either.
But maybe it's because my ROM (1.43) is not among those with issues.
oops... I just realized it says for 1.49.XXX and lower!
gotta obey and apply the fix then

You are one sick puppy!
I know what you mean though; was on the miri HD ROM update train for months, upgrading every week or two until I got the HD2. I have had no problems with it whatsoever, but I still can't wait until they get USPL/HSPL sorted so that I can start flashing again...

wholly freaking text messaging problems batman!!!

ok so this phone is the best phone i have had.. except who ever tested the text messaging app must not have alot of friends..
i get about 20 people in the list of messages and my whole phone messes up..
i click one guy and the message gets sent to the guy at the bottom of the list.
you gotta really watch out, because it has the right name but the wrong number.
when i click messages from someone with more then 20 it takes 20 seconds to load them up and sometimes when i go back to the today screen the phone crashes..
sometimes i hear the text message sound and i have no new messages..
come to find out the message went ON TOP of the list from that sender.. not on the bottom.
sometimes the indicator that you have a new message never goes away, even after you read it..
anyone else having huge text problems?
first of all great title
im completely with you mate the texting on this phone is a joke
who's clever idea was it to load every single text every time you want to send 1?
plus the keyboard lag is a royal pain in the ass especially as im a fast typer
i have had no problems with sending texts to wrong people however, i think, maybe some people are having a real laugh at my expense..
i hope it gets fixed soon
i just dont understand how an iphone, with some 400mhz processor is 100x smoother than this phone
there must be some real fault somewhere

that was really funny.
ROM 1.66 fixed much of this, but still known bugs remain - as reported in this forum.
You were lucky not to be around in Dec 09, when you had to soft reset every time you sent an sms which got 'stuck' in the Outbox!!!

i forgot to put in that is the tmobile US HD2..
The HTC messaging app is not meant for hardcore text messagers. To stop it from loading every message, you can tap on a message then hit back.
One of the solutions is to disable the HTC messaging and use the default WM6.5 threaded SMS. Google search "disable HTC messaging" and look for Zenyee's CAB to disable it, then look in the WM Theme forum here to find some nice looking WM SMS themes.
The other solution is to disable HTC messaging and use something like BsB Tweaks to enable SMS classic mode, which takes you to an older version of the SMS app when you tap on a message in the messaging tab, that doesn't lag like the new one does, but it doesn't look as nice.

I send 100-150 texts a day, and receive just as much.
I never have any problems.
i use full QWERTY and texting speed is quite nice. I mean, multi-touch keyboard would be NICE, but it gets the job done for now.
As much as TMOUS stock ROM fixed lots of glitches, it still doesn't beat most of the ROMs cooked by chefs here.
Try flashing (at your own risk, of course), then see how much your phone has evolved.
Have you tried changing it from conversation mode to traditional mode?
Menu, settings, traditional mode
are there any different messaging clients which can be used instead?

Is there lag for sms function???

So, I have the original leo version of hd2 and the sms lag has been bothering me since the first day i got my phone in march. I text about 1200 text a month and you have no idea how annoying the sms lag is. So I'm just wondering if there is any sms lag in the T mobile version? Lag such as when you are typing your sms, it takes forever for the history to load and then you would have to tap it again to input your text.
Please let me know, if there isn't any lag at all I will flash my hd2 and put in the T mobile version of manila.
THANKS

Yeah, it exists for a lot of owners of the T-mo version as well. I think the cause in your case (as in many others) is the number of texts you have on the phone. Here's a post I put up about that same thing just last night:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6455539&postcount=2
If you go into menu, options and make the messages standard, not threaded this might help. It worked for me. Also, I custom flashed a rom on my device because the stock was running terribly for me

yes, definitely try this too dicksonjoe, it worked for others besides him as well, and may clear it up before going through clearing your sms. Try what he said first, then what I said if that didn't work
I'm interested to hear if it helps you first to turn off the threading, easier solutions are better solutions!

HTC New SMS Function Update

New SMS Function Update: http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=0&dl_id=812
Has anyone installed this and seen any drastic improvements? I believe the last SMS update they released did absolutely no good. Is this something you should install even if you have ROM versions 1.66.XXX.X?
Sure would be nice to have them fix these issues from locking up during heavy sms usage once and for all.

Usually they say a ROM version number as the one listed has the fix built in.
Here is the link for all the latest HTC updates for the HD2 and this New- SMS update is out after the latest ROM update? That doesn't make sense? They have screwed up the SMS'ing of this phone from the very beginning. That being said, if they could ever fix it, I wouldn't want anything else.
2 questions in one....
will this new update work with my xannytech 2.3 evolution??
Update for HTC HD2 – New SMS Function Update
This update for HTC HD2 amends the internal management of SMS functionality, and enhances SMS transmission stability, and lets you reach out to your friends and family with instant notifications. Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers just that: fast and reliable SMS messaging.
i ask this because, we all know that the reception or signal on the hd2 is not the best. But , when i send a text and there is no signal i would like the phone to Try and send the text as soon as a signal is recieved on its own. Find it very annoying having to wait or look for a signal (normally putting phone down) to then quickly resend the message before the signal is lost. Im sure every other phone iv had waits till a receotion then sends. Is there a setting iv missed? Or maybe the hd2 actually does this but hours later?
hope you get where im comming from
thanx for any help....

the htc support site says for roms below 1.66.xxx, that means to me that 1.66.xxx+ roms have this built in already
if your on a custom rom, you'll have to double check what build its based on
