Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

I've to face little issues with my maemo's conversation (messaging) Whenever I receive any message, open the notification, the message displays but when visit the conversation main box later, the message disappears. It doesn't display in the conversation. Similarly few of the msgs doesn't delete nor opens. I don't know what's the problem.

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

thnx for both of ur replies. Yup I restarted the phone more than once but it doesn't solve the problem. secondly frnd, Yup there is one of my frnd to whom i text a lot but m facing same problem from the new contacts as well. I removed a lot of old msgs but still it doesn't resolve the problem.

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

It's the first problem that I've to face with my N900. I removed the entire conversations including the most important msgs as I was hopeful that it will resolve my problem but still the same issue..... :mad: what's the hell is this??? now no msg is saving in my inbox.... Any solution plzz!!

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

I've had similar issues too. I now for example have the problem that it takes a hell long time to "load" the conversation. For example, you open conversation, see ur Friends name with the latest txt message: blablabla, I click on it and it takes forever to load the messages, the screen where they should be stays black...

I have a (possible) solution though:

First gain root access:
sudo gainroot

..then switch to the target directory:
cd .rtcom-eventlogger

Now dump the contents of the existing database to a raw SQL file:
sqlite3 el-v1.db .dump > el-v1.db.sql

Restore the SQL to a new database:
sqlite3 el-v1.db.new < el-v1.db.sql

You may ignore SQL errors at this stage; they occur due to corruption in the source.

Now overwrite the broken DB (you may wish to back up the original file):
cp el-v1.db.new el-v1.db

Finally, ensure that the file is owned by 'user' and is in the 'users' group so it may be read by Conversations
chown user el-v1.db
chgrp users el-v1.db

Now close and re-open your Conversations app - the changes should be immediate!

You won't lose data. I hope this helps.

Oh dear.... m just a beginner. don't know so details... :( any easy way? or step by step guidance? plzzzz

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Go to the X terminal and enter the commands 1 by 1. That should do it..

(this works given you can gain root acces, the first cmd, if not install: "rootsh" via the application manager, when installed go by the commands again 1 by 1.)

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Thnx a lot "HHMAH". It resolved my issue. Thnx God that I'd backup.

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Was my post of any help?

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Thnx for u too as you responded very nicely by guiding me towards the real solution of my problem but as I'd told u earlier that m just a beginner so according to another suggestion, I run a saved backup then restore the settings and at last this resolved my issue.

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Alright, thats fine then. I can advice you to try out my suggestion as well. You won't lose any data, and the learning process (using xterm) is seriously worth the effort. Xterm gives you so much more usefull things to do with the n900.

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Thnx once again frnd:) Yup agree with u... Ohk I'll try (Inshallah) and wil disturb you if required for further assistance.
Should I enter these commands as it as and have to press enter after every command?

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Yes thats about it. Just open X terminal, make sure you're first command to enter is "sudo gainroot", as this allows you to be "super user" of the phone. To become this, you have to download rootsh via application manager, without it you cant become "root".

Just enter the codes and press enter 1 by 1.

Feel free to post any further questions

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

Thanks! It solved my problem!

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)
 

It solved my problem too back then, but it was only temporary, every now and then I re-do this process because somehow the problem persists over time..

I have no idea why, but since it only costs a few minutes, i really don't care.

No problem btw, always glad to help

Re: Issue in Conversation (Messaging)

There z an issue with the conversation with just one contact. all other conversations are correctly occurring.
