Ok, so I get a new text message.
I turn on the phone, notice in the lockscreen someone texted, and see an excerpt of the text. I say, ok, lets slide that messaging icon into the ring and read that message. Well, that message is not there. No message at all from that person. If its someone ive been talking to, it usually shows what i said last only, and their reply is no where to be found, although i just saw it in the lockscreen or the top bar.

I have also tried the handcent sms app to see if it could help me. same thing occurs there too.


ANY idea what could be causing this? It seems to be doing it all the time now. My only way around it is to use google voice only. ugh.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am a very similar issue, at first I thought I was missing text messages as well.

I got a few keywords from my friend who sent the missing text and when I did a search, the text was there, but they had the wrong time stamp.

For instance missing text was sent at 17:44, when I search I found the text stamped and threaded in as if it was received at 12:40.

The wrong time is variable, I have found other texts that was stamped received the previous day.

Unfortunately I don't have a solution, and quite frankly am getting really frustrated with this problem.
