n900 conversations disappearing!!!
 

i conversations are disappearing allot lately. sometimes i get a text then i go check it it says no conversations.

i still get alerts, my blue notification light flashes also.
i cant afford for this to be happening. i run a business and im missing money.

can anyone solve this or is having this same issue?
Also my call log is doing the same every now and then.
these issues have been happening for about a week now.
i have rebooted my phone over and over again

please help

I have the same problem. Actually happening as I type this message. It's annoying. I usually just reboot it or just let it chill out for a bit.

It's not going to return old messages though, you'll be back at zero, but at least they'll start being logged again.

i have reflashed my phone and restored my backup. everything was working for a minute. the the next thing i know they disappeared again along with my call history.

i didnt have this problem when i had pr1.1. in fact i had no problems. you think in get get a replacement phone? i only had my phone for 4 months. or is this just a firmware issue?

anybody?

i have tried this suggestion and for me me it works for a while. my problem is reoccuring. my messages and call log come back when it wants to.

can i send my phone back to nokia?

Re: n900 conversations disappearing!!!
 

if you return conversations from backup, it brings the corrupt database(?!?) along. so don't return conversations from backup.

just remove
and see if problem disappears along with conversations.
(you might need to recreate the file, with command)
if you know how to handle sqlite, you could try fixing the database instead of removing it.

thanks a million. i kinda figured that but here is the thing. i have about 4500 text message from my clients that i need to keep. is there a way i can manually export my messages out and convert them to excell?
im gonna try your third option to try and repair the database. thanks. hopes this works

If you transfer that file over to a computer you should be able to extract all data, or convert it to a excel file if you wish. Not sure if it's possible to open that database in Excel directly though.
