Handcent deleting texts?

[ncjharris]

Had my desire for about 4 months now, tres happy with it, one of the first apps i downloaded to use instead of the stock was Handcent for SMS.

Today I take it out to send a text and the conversation screen is blank!

Can't find texts anywhere - including if I go into the traditional 'messaging'.

And then to top it off, I send a text to my sister and it goes to my wife!? Despite the conversation window showing the correct name and profile photo.

Anyone else had any issues with Handcent? Reading other posts, I now know that its also a battery drainer, so I'll be uninstalling it, but I'd like me messages back first!!

Never heard it was a battery drainer!!

Have you tried rebooting your phone?

 

[ncjharris]

tried that - nought.

Can't remember which post it was, but some chap was complaining of poor battery and when he ran spare parts it was the 2nd or 3rd app. Same on mine.

Have had no battery issues and use it all the time.

Been using Handcent for months, haven't heard of these problems, perhaps try clearing Handcent's data & cache and see what happens after.
