HD2 - its a love hate relationship but its getting too much

---

I have learnt to live with the HD2's quirks the lag when loading texts, the twitter app that still doent work properly the poor battery life and texts that dont reach threre recipients for hours. I have learnt how to flash roms and thanks to miri some of the problems are much better and the phone genreally performs much better than on a stock ROM but i draw the line at this .....

I sent 2 texts to a friend (friend A) of mine this morning and a totally different friend (friend B) recieved them. My phone says they were sent to Friend A but when i check the number that they were sent to its the number for friend B. I have checked the numbers in the contact directory and both friend A and friend b have the correct numbers stored for them. So how the hell can this happen, and how many times might it have happened in the past and I have never known. This is a major security flaw and leaves me just wanting to dump the phone. Has anyone else had this problem?

i've not had it yet. I used 1.66 wwe for the first 6 weeks of having my phone and at the weeked flashed the latest energy rom and still not had it. It could be the contacts are corrupt so you could try deleting them both and recreating them

Bizzare!! I have never had anything like that happen with any phone ever, no matter what brand. It certainly never happened with my HD2.
Is it possible that you accidentally have more than one number for some of your contacts and it's defaulting to the wrong one? It would be worth checking the full contact card to see.
You may have already done that, but it's the only thing I can think of. All the best...

I have double checked and there is nothing wrong with the contact cards. only one number on each and no cross over.

I've experienced it once. I was sat in the pub with a mate, text my girlfriend (luckily not a saucy one!) and my mate got it... checked my phone, and for all intents and purposes I HAD sent to my girlfriend, but my mate was showing me the message on his phone.... beyond bizarre, it never happened again so I dismissed it.

Not had that problem
But I second the love hate relationship becoming to much!
I cant be doing with it, god knows how Im going to live with it for another 1.5 years...
But I cant bring my self to leave it for a smaller screened phone.

Where are your contacts located, your SIM or your Phone? Are you texting people while they are on your SIM, or are they located in your Contact list? I have definitely seen this before, but it is usually resolved once your import your SIM contacts to the PHONE and leave them there.

similar circumstances to me then the lad who got the text works with me so he told me straight away. the wierd thing is how random it was. I hadn't texted him for days and there are no other similarities our links in there contact cards. question is how many times does this happen and you never find out.
the facet that it had happened to someone else makes it worse. its not just a freak glitch, its a bug. did it happen to you on a stock rom?

I think I was running Artemis at the time, part of the reason I left it seeing as I was using a custom. Really weird that it didn't even go into that guys SMS history though, it went to the intended recipients history and I wouldn't have known it went to someone else unless I was sat next to the guy.

all my contacts are on my phone and all sync happily with exchange server.
your right about the history, out was logged as being sent too the person I wanted it to go to but when I checked the message details the number was the other persons!
