Where the #%&! are all my TEXTS?!

Does it shut down on you too? Keep me updated if you go to sprint!

I uninstalled it like a week ago now, but I don't remember many force-closes...

I've had no force closes from either the stock messaging app or handcent, nor any lost messages. I'm not a realy heavy texter, but even so I've got to think there's some other app on your phone that's conflicting with the messaging database or app.
I dunno. When it first happened, I'd had the phone for almost a month and had installed/uninstalled a few apps here & there in that time, so I'm sure it's possible.

Not sure when I'll be able to stop by a "repair" store, but I have this thread open in its own tab so rest assured I will update...
 
I've uninstalled my anti virus app and haven't had the problem since. If you have that app you may want to try that. I've been good about a week with no closes/deletions!

Now I'm getting duplicate texts like crazy. From Sprint friends, from Verizon friends, from AT&T friends, and from T-Mobile friends.

I uninstalled Handcent, but that didn't matter. Still getting dupes.

Haven't had the texts vaporize yet, but... I'm sure they will soon.

I've had some problems with duplicate texts in the past, but did a couple hard resets and haven't had any problems since...have you tried hard resetting your phone yet?
 
Well, here I am a few weeks later and I still have all my texts using the stock app. Hmmm...

Still doesn't ****ing VIBRATE, though! I may just do a hard reset anyway, see if that does it.
 
check out back up sms. I have ALL my text backed up daily on my sd card. I just did an evo replacement and restored all my old text on my new phone:)
 
I am so pissed, this just happened to me. 3,000+ messages erased, i have some backed up but have not done a backup in a couple of weeks. Has anyone figured out a way to fix this? I dont want to have to do a full restore. And i was using handcent, it was downloading a picture mail, the app did not crash, but when i tired to open the picture it said file does not exists, went back and everything was erased. I know handcent uses the stock app for retrieving, so that must of crashed.
