Message problem

[double_ofour]

anybody know a solution for this problem? this is my draft in messages.

[demskie]

mine is worse. It includes unusable draft, outbox, and sent folders for my sms. I read somewherer the problem has to do with sprite backup after it restores a previous backup including sms. their suggested solution was to upgrade to version 3 and above which I did but did not help any. Ideas would be appreciated. :( I have himalaya with xdajojo2 upgrade software windows mobile 2003 se.

What might be a solution is to install a db program, such as dbExplorer and then see if the corruption is in the database or somewhere else perhaps. If you can count how many messages are in your Inbox and then look for a table with that number of records (usually it's one of it not the largest table). Look for TEXT columns and then see if there is meaningful data, or just the garbled nonsense you see in Inbox.

Apply the same for Outbox and Sent Items etc. Let me know the results.

I had the same problem with an earlier rom-verson on the xda. The problem appears only when changing rom (I think). And a solution is to copy all the messages with "Jeyo Mobile Companion".

Don't know any other way than using the old-rom version, making a backup with a backup system, and then applying the backup on the new rom version.

Jeyo Mobile Companion is a program that does not seem to copy the message-database itself, but the content. And when you apply the backup later it will just tell the operation-system what to insert back into the database. It solves the problems with having a slightly different way of storing the messages in db.

This is just my theory, so correct me if I'm wrong!
