    Default Multiple Sent Message Showing Up as "Anonymous"


    Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere but I couldn't find anything related.

    Today I sent a message to a couple of friends by doing the following:

    > New Message
    > Writing my message
    > Selecting two contacts
    > Send

    Android then took me back to the thread list, however instead of the names of the two people I had sent the message to appearing, the name of the thread was "Anonymous".

    I opened the thread and clicked on each individual message to check the numbers and sure enough, they were correct. The message was also delivered as I got a reply from one of the two contacts.

    So why would the phone not pick up the 'sent to' contacts in the thread list? What also confuses me is that I have previously sent messages to those very same 2 contacts and the thread has shown their names fine. I also tried restarting my phone but the proplem persists.

    Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    Had that problem several times before. Note that there is another problem that is similar in form but very different in result. If you see an "Anonymous" thread, view it to make sure there is a phone number displayed for each entry. If you see "Me:" for every single entry instead, then that means none of the messages were sent.
