Airveiw seems to work pretty good and I find myself using it a lot for email and now text messaging. Problem is it doesn't work on all of my contacts in messaging. On the main messaging screen where it list messages from different contacts it will "airview" the most recent text for MOST but not for everyone...just wondering if anyone knows why this would be and if there is a way to make it work for everyone.
Thanks
I have the same problem... I've restored the sms from sms backup... Could it be?
And if you send or receive another sms the Air view begins to work... Weird...
Having the same issue here...doesn't work on email at all, works on random contacts as I go down the list, as with text messages. Nothing has been restored to mine, it's all "new".
I think it only activates when all of the text is not visible. For example if you browse contacts I noticed it worked only for those contacts whose names were too long to see them entirely and the same thing is with the messages.

I noticed the same thing, but going through contacts, it would activate on some that were fully visible.

I never got a chance to play around with S4. So i am assuming Air view displays the text message and photo pictures without even touching the screen. It is just to keep your finger in the air and wait for it to pop-out. Am i correct ?

Pretty much. You go to your list of people you received text from, hover your finger over a particular contact you received a message from, and it will pop up a Window with the last message received from that person. Kind of the same thing in your contacts list, if the full name is not displayed, it will 0 up the full name.

Hello!
I've been using my HD for a while now and really like it, except for one wierd behaviour it has going on. If i click the new message icon on the "message" TF3D tab and then start writing the recipients surname (since it sorts the contacts by surname) it will give me some options from my contacts to choose from. If i pick one and click send, it will then give me a list of everyone with the same surname, so I have to click my recipient again.
It then gives me all of the possible numbers of the recipient, so I choose the right number, and then it sends the message. Except it sends it twice. Or sometimes even thrice.
It doesn't do this if I go through contacts or just reply to an SMS, only when I go through the message tab. This is a little annoying since I find it convienient to use. Anyone seen this problem before?
Also, why is it giving me more contacts with the same surname to choose from after I've picked the one it proposed? This is quite annoying, and once led to me sending a quite innapropropriate SMS to my girlfriends dad one drunken night...
any help would be greatly appreciated!

LOL - priceless!!! Did you ask him to snuggle?!
Guys
Hoping someone can help me out. Since I got my HD2 a few days ago, everything works fine, especially after installing lots of cabs from XDA, but since the thing has been switched on I've been getting weird text messages at random times. They'll have no content other than the "from" field will contain a small triangle and an @ sign, or sometimes it'll be an underscore like so: "[email protected]". In addition, on the RHS side in the conversation mode view for SMS, these messages will have a little picture of a SIM card above the time received. Anyone any ideas?
Thanks in advance ...

looks like someone is trying to reach you from another dimension.
By your description, it looks like someone is winking or looking at you. I wouldn't be shocked if the next text you'll get is something like this
[email protected] or
@[email protected] or
-___-
Don't be scared.

This is a voicemail message notification. You'll get another one when you clear VMs - it has a triangle I think.
+1 It's a voicemail notification!
Another one of many bugs mate, you dont get an icon on the task bar just that gobbledygook SMS
haha...thats scary.
it might be messages stored in sim card???...
Well, it depends on your operator. On mine it works fine and I get the little cassette tape icon for a voice mail, but my Tilt used to give me the text messages. Funnily enough, reading some of the taskbar threads some people were getting the right icon but had never seen it before!

LOL same problem here. Texts with just "∆@" and "[email protected]" as the title with no body are received instead of a proper missed call notification from Orange.
Any fix available to stop this occuring? Is this anything to do with the first SMS hotfix?

You can change your voicemail notification by calling your voicemail and going through the options on there. Most providers allow you to change it, but one or two only allow notification or no notification. I didn't believe this at first, but I set mine to just show a notification icon and it worked.
Hey guys, I havent heard anyone talking about this but i discovered e bug today!
So here's how it goes :
1: I was typing my sms halfway to person A
2: I went to type another half sms to person B
3: I went back to person A's incomplete sms, completed the message and sent out
OUTCOME: The msg went to person B instead!! But on my message chat log, it says that the msg was sent correctly to person A!
Anyone having this problem? So far I only heard of msg getting stucked in outbox, havent heard of this yet!!
why send 2 messages at the same time? seems a bit confusing!
because I was composing a long message to A. Then B needed me to sent an urgent reply over. So I decided to send B a reply first before continuing to compose e long msg to A!
Anw that shdn't be the problem since my previous phones can all handle this kind of multitasking!!
Yes ive had this problem of a message going to the wrong person even though in the log it states it didnt. Was quite a embarrassing text as well ):
exactly what happened to me! I hope this is e ONLY way to send a wrong msg to the wrong recipients without realising. SIIIGH
Anyone knows how do I feedback to HTC so they can make a patch or someting?!
i also have same problem as well as having text window open with person A and then person B texts me and it comes up on same window as my person A page. so now im replying right after this text of person B thinking im replying to person A and it goes to B. this is after i installed cookie home tab 185 and editor 1851 and then resinstall 185 and same thing. now it can also be after that one sms hotfix that is on hd2 site. whatever is the reason is there a way to fix it. also sometimes under swype my delete button wont work for texting but it will work in traditional qwerty so thats another bug as well as when this bug happens i get this other bug when u type with swype every letter has a period like john is j.o.h.n. and space bar wont work.
i dont know whats up right now i backed up with spb backup and will try uninstall cht and see if it was the cause or not but i dont think ive seen any post regarding this issue after posts for cht 185 on xda. any ideas?
i've read several threads about sms messages going to the wrong person.
i would just like some clarification from you guys! are you using HTC's messaging client or are you using windows mobile's default sms messaging application?
personally, i kept HTC messaging disabled on my stock ROM and i'm currently using an NRGZ ROM (Energy ROM "Standard" Sense June 11, 2010) which does away with the HTC messaging out of the box. i much rather like the stock messaging client and it also keeps your messages in a form that is much more friendly and compatible for backup with pimbackup and/or microsoft myphone.
the only reason i'm asking is if someone can confirm if the problem occurs ONLY and SPECIFICALLY with the HTC messaging client or it has also been known to occur when using the stock windows mobile client?
would just like to know if i should also be careful about my messaging practices...
i can confirm its using HTC messaging which i believe is what it uses as stock and when u do factory reset. i have factory reset three times and still get issues.
How do you disable HTC builtin messaging so i can use WinMo one? thanks.
ok i used Zenyee Disable HTC Messaging 1.2 to disable HTC and using win mo...it works correctly so far....i have question...how do u turn of the MESSAGE SENT notifcation that pops up after every sent message? i dont see any options for it and under MESSAGE OPTIONS .."request message delivery notification" box is unchecked. thanks

You have to get a registry editor and change these keys:
Code:
[B]HKCU[/B]\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSNoSentMsg =1 (default 0)
[B]HKLM[/B]\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSNoSentMsg =1 (default 0)

ok i did that and it works thanks...however i didnt have a SMSNoSent available at the HKCU section but I did see it at the HKLM area and enabled to 1.
i have another issue which you may know about. When you send a text...then when that person replies back, you get incoming text notification. When you click to reply to that person and youre in the reply window where the screen is greyish and theres a SEND button thats on the screen itself next to your reply box, sometimes that window shows my reply back to show up before he replied to my original text so its out of order. However, if you go to ALL MESSAGES and view a specific conversation that way then it shows correctly (this is the text reply white window where you see the colors icons next to the names.
Is this bug due to me replying to that text too quickly? so thats why it was out of order. this only happens sometimes ...im going to play around with it to see if it is only due to really quick replies.
Thanks
also i got this other problem. when you are in home screen and you get incoming text you will see the number 1 on your messaging icon and when you click it and reply to text, the number 1 doesnt disappear, it still treats that text you received as new and only way i can get rid of it is delete text which i would rather prefer it disappear after i read text. anyone can help please? thx

This problem was already mentioned here on the forum, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642091&highlight=sms+wrong+contact
One workaround is to use the back or home hard keys instead of the "All Messages" option to travel between conversations.

i got my hd2 on june 1st, 2010. i used the stock ROM for 30 full days with HTC messaging DISABLED (i even wrote a guide about it...search for threads started by me in the HD2 general section). in these 30 days, i learned that disabling HTC messaging had no SERIOUS ill effects, but it did have some annoying odd little problems like you've mentioned in the quoted post above. additionally, my "green LED" would keep flashing for several minutes after reading the last unread SMS. another odd problem was that accessing a contact's page within Sense would work fine until i scrolled to the contact's messaging history tab...it would just close the contact's page altogether! i suspect the reason for this was that this tab relies on a fully working HTC messaging client, which i had disabled!
due to these issues (and a few other issues unrelated to SMS messaging), i decided i had familiarized myself enough with the HD2 and its stock ROM...so i went for a good cooked ROM after a few weeks of research. i highly recommend NRGZ's "energy" ROMs (there are many flavors). all the variants of energy ROMs completely EXCLUDE HTC messaging and the stock messaging works 100% properly with no odd side effects.
you can battle these little issues all you want but you can save yourself some time and effort if you can find a ROM that suits all (or most) of your needs.
PS: it would be nice if someone can suggest even more custom ROMs that also exclude HTC messaging, as described in bold above in the second-last paragraph!

that workaround worked so if im on person A window and i have partial reply text going and get a new text from B and when replyin to B with using back button i can text np.
my thing is sometimes when u have like 4 conversations going ...having it listed like in ALL MESSAGES is useful. im still seeing how having 3 conv. behaves with usin back button but thanks for that.
also since cookie home tab uses htc text app ..i wish i can use the text app that was being used in spb mobile shell 3.5. on that one the gui is better and u just press OK on the partial screen u were on and it will take u back to all messages and u can open and reply anyone n it works. this workaround pressing back key is good but i dont want to hard press a key all the time like this i prefer touchscreen . so in meantime im stickign with my cookie home tab 185 and will use back button for now or winmobile one.
p.s. i tested out this issue on my friends hd2 and neither his htc sense text app or the spb mobile shell text app is buggy and both work correctly. so i either can keep doing factory reset til it works right or deal with it.
The new update maybe can help ...

Hi, I think you didn't realize unfinished texts should be saved as draft, otherwise it reappear in every new message tread input box in hTC message.

After an RMA and getting replacement phone with latest rom i still had the same problem. However, now thers a fix that helped me that TM said it came out june 8th regarding Contacts issue.
My contacts were saved to SIM only so i had this issue regarding texting wrong person. If you save to SIM/PHONE or PHONE only, texting works correctly. So this is the fix for me at least.
At the moment i saved my contacts out of my SIM and into my account. I did factory reset and then tested out texting without any contacts on PHONE or SIM by using numbers. This worked but you may suspect it may be due to using numbers rather than choosing of contact list? I will know soon cuz im waiting for TM to sync up my contacts from my act. to my phone and she had to create a trouble ticket. So when i get my contact list on my phone only, i will try again and make sure its works. Right now im crossing fingers but i believe it will work.

Type the first 2-3 letters of their name and it will show the drop down with their name. click their name and it will fill it in.
Or you can get Handcent SMS. It has an icon on the top left that you click and it gives you a checklist of your contacts to add to the message.

Hello everyone I have tried searching for this but cant not find it. the one link that I did find returned a dead page.
What I am asking today is in reguards to CyanogenMod 7 and messaging. I text a lot and find it annoying that the "Me" in messages does not have my picture in it. Before I went from stock everything to CM7 I had the ability to edit me contact card and this allowed my pic to display for my messages sent. But now I can not find out how to do. I was told to do Settings > Call Settings > Additional Settings > My Phone Number but I do not see additional settings.
While it is not a big thing it does annoy me as my OCD kicks in and I see received pics of the contact but an android bot as my pic. Can anyone help me out with this.

I'm not sure if this is the right way or what, but it's pretty easy. Just create a new contact using your own phone number. Name the contact 'Me'. Then select a picture of yourself to set as the photo for the 'Me' contact. Save your changes. Your picture should now appear in the text mesaging threads as the Me contact.

It should work. I use that method on every AOSP rom I've ever used, because I also hate seeing the blank spot on the 'me' contact. Should work no problem.

My text has my gmail picture....I think I uploaded it to latitude once and it got associated with gmail.
Anyhow, you should be able to add a contact pic to your gmail and it will show up.
My phone also has the same picture in my contacts where I have put all my information for myself. I didn't associate it with this contact, so it must be done through Gmail.
