Text Message Mismatch

[sal33n]

I double checked and my contacts that got mixed up do NOT have any of the same info in their contact information like you described.

I have a similar problem -- every time I receive a text from one particular phone number the Droid associates it with an email address [email protected] and if I try and reply it doesn't work. I have been unable to fix the problem at all, and I've tried everything I could think of short of resetting the phone.

I am having the same problem with text messaging. The Droid keeps appending @callwave.com to text message sender's name. I am then unable to reply to the text message. And after the Droid does this, I can't even create a text message to that number from scratch without the Droid appending @callwave.com to it.

I had the same problem and got no where with verizon tech support or motorola. Once I stopped using the default messaging software and only use chompsms or handcent never had the problem again. Besure to set chomp or handcent as ur default. Should fix your problems

I use ChompSMS. I have the same issue while using ChompSMS. I contacted them and told them of the problem. They are looking at a fix for this.

I had similar problems. My phone was saying texts from my ex were from my son. So it was easy to tell where they were really coming from.
I tried deleting Handcent, deleting contacts, neither of which worked. Did both again, but turned Facebook sync off. This seemed to fix it, at least for me.

I know this thread is old, but I'm hoping that someone has been able to figure out the reason behind this issue over the last year.

I previously had a Droid 2, but recently was given a Droid Global. More or less, it's the same phone, except over the last couple weeks my texts are getting mismatched. I have never experienced something like this, so I thought maybe it was due to a recently added number. I deleted the new number and the message stream went back to who it belonged to.

However this morning, I got a message that began a brand new conversation, and at first it showed the correct name, but as soon as I opened the message it changed to another person. Both had Facebook profiles and therefore had photos. The numbers are in no way similar. What gives?

I just turned off my Facebook refresh interval. We'll see what happens...

Android 2.2.3 and 2.3.2 have a fix for this... I think

Just checked system, and it says it's up-to-date with no updates available. It says it's Android version 2.2, system version 2.4.330.

Any other ideas?

Well it wouldn't be a ota update. Custom roms have 2.3.2 and 2.2.2

2.2.2 is an OTA update that has rolled during the last couple of days. that should fix it. I was always rooted so never had this issue.

I believe that 2.2.2 is available somewhere in the forum, its also refereed to as FRG83G
