Unwanted Text Messages Still Coming w/ WM6 (Shipping Version)?

[philocity]

I deleted all of the snapin software while I was running the beta version to stop the 4-5 SMS messages being sent daily but still received a text message everytime I had to reboot or turn off and on my phone.

It would be from the #: 1121611611

The Message would say:
453 Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code. 06050415CC15CC60D8

My crude fix was keeping my phone charged to avoid having to restart the phone.

Last night I flashed in the leaked shipping version of WM6. Much to my dismay I was still receiving these SMS messages upon every reboot of my phone.

Anyone got an idea about what's going on?

I just flashed the new leaked rom last night and haven't had any int. messages sent...I even called t-mobile and the last international message that was sent was the 21st...the last time I hard reset my phone with the beta on it. Have you checked to see if it is a program on your phone doing it?

The only text messages I've recieved are ones intended for me...

Go back uninstall the new Official T-Mobile wm6 ROM and reinstall the T-Mobile clean WM5 Rom that was on your Dash/Excalibur, when you purchase it. Next, install back the new wm6 official ROM and the unwanted text messages will stop! Never ever install the new official wm6 ROM over the old beta wm6 ROM. If you do you will have problems! Let me know how things work out!

[BlackCasper]

i too have receive these unwanted text messages... but i update from wm5 would i have to restart the whole process over?

[kast]

Did you remove (not rename) the My5 startup link?

[BlackCasper]

no i dont believe so.. nor do i know what that is lol

[kast]

Check in the /Windows/Startup directory and with Total Commander (not the standard File Explorer) check you have or not anything else than "Voice Command" or "WifiInit".

i see my5msgcenter voice command and wifiinit in teh startup folder? what do i do with them?

Guys are your Dash/Excalibur sim unlock, I want to get to the bottom of this text message issue!

[kast]

I think it's more related to some app re-installed or not correctly disabled.

Anyway, to answer your question, myne is unlocked and still waiting for my online "balance" to get updated and check my SMS usage.

Mine isn't -- I applied the update to a non-beta'd Dash with it's shipping ROM.

And you're not experiencing any SMS prob as far as I understood.

Mine is sim unlocked. Gonna try out downgrading back to wm5. That was my last resort. You just tipped the scale. I'll reply back with findings.

I'm having the same issue. I'm coming from the WM6 Beta build.

I can't seem to downgrade to previous versions of the Dash or the Excalibur ROMs. I keep getting an Error 260 message.

Did you remember to flash in the older bootloader?

I changed the lnk extenstions to lnk2. I rebooted and the problem has gone away - no more unwanted emails. :-)

Now when do you think the non-T-Mobile branded ROM will get leaked? ;-)

Ok, I did a quick search on Google for 1121611611 and guess what? That error message (or SMS with an error) is quite common. Some people receive it when they try to send a SMS or reply to a SMS.

Found ref to TMobile, either when somebody goes to TMobile but he's/she's not fully in their database and not recognised as such or when is replying to a TMobile subscriber...

Anyway, as I'm a bit asleep now, I would suggest to do a quick Google on 1121611611 and you'll see what I'm talking about. :)

Really happy about that, started to feel a bit scared but since I am a complete parano, checked 20 times for any strange process or startup lnk before putting my SIM in, just that couldn't get my online statement to show and couldn't see if any unwanted SMS had been sent, altough was sure didn't receive any from "unknown numbers".

The unbranded (pure HTC) should be coming soon, I hope, knowing that the branded is scheduled for 4.5 (4th of May, for the US people) I guess the unbranded can't be scheduled much later than that.

No, but I solved the problem by changing the Startup files.

Thanks.

No strange SMS here... But I was receiving them before I installed the shipped version.

Gee..That was easy. I renamed the the my5 shortcut in the windows startup folder and got the messages to stop also. Case closed!

(For the record I just downgraded to WM5, reflashed to the shipping version of wm6, had the same error text come in, and almost threw my phone at the wall.)

[McHale]

like I stated in the original thread, delete the my5 shortcut in startup. That message that it's sending is a network message for the my5 app. It's not a real text message.

If you're a T-Mobile customer, it's not a real text message and you won't be charged for it.
