Re: Conversations Messed Up in many ways!!
 

@zurrain101

i also have this kind of problem before but i figure out how to fix it...it works on me'hopes it works on you too...

first regarding contact name in conversations...
this problem is cause by two thing...
1.the contact number = the best way to fix this to add +6 infront on the contact number...
2.call notify = if you have install this then disable the vibrate notification

second regarding you conversations disappearing...
this cause by two thing...
1.to many conversations in your phone = delete old conversation in your phone...if suddenly your conversation disappear then quickly reboot...
2.call notify = again disable the vibrate notication...

mostly this problem is cause by call notify...i disable the vibrate notification...i don't know if my method works on you or not but just try it anyway...

Re: Conversations Messed Up in many ways!!
 

I strongly suggest trying my suggestion before pusak_gaog's suggestion, because mine is non-destructive and reversible.

Huh? That might be half-right if you're in Malaysia (county code is +60) or Australia (+61) or wherever else the international dialling code starts with 6, but it's 100% not going to help anywhere else as you'll end up texting or dialing an international number that:

1. almost certainly isn't owned by whoever you actually want to text or dial
2. may or may not exist
3. will prevent Contacts from identifying incoming texts or calls from that person's number as being from that person
4. is wrong ;)

Possible, but doesn't seem likely. Any links or further info to back up that theory?

Try the technique which fixed a very similar issue for me instead. It's less destructive (you get to keep your messages) and it actually worked for me.

Still not convinced by the whole vibrate-causes-conversations-to-get-messed up idea. I think it was a coincidence. Your deleting old conversations is much more likely to have had an effect.

i use to enable the vibrate notification on call notify but every time i received a call/text i dont usually read it instantly so i put the vibrate notify delay by 2 minutes so after two minutes it will vibrate to notify me there is a call/text coming...i notice if the incoming call/text i read it instantly then i got no problem but if i left it more than 10 minutes then it will cause a problem...that why i disable it...after i disable it i got no disappearing conversations anymore...

like i said before...it might not works on your phone but it wont kill you if you try it ;)
