AT&T Tilt HTC: Can't access messages application

On more than one occassion I was not able to open the messaging application on the HTC / AT&T tilt. It seems that if you are storing your mail on a MicroSD in the expansion slot, that there is a greater likelihood that your mailbox folder will become corrupted. The fix that has worked for me is to use the file explorer navigate to the inbox folder and delete (make a copy of it course before hand)
Steps
  • Remove the MicroSD card
  • Power off the device
  • Turn the device back on on
  • Insert the Reinsert the MicroSD Card
  • Click on the the Messaging application and if all goes well you should be back up and running.

  1. Thanks for the Fix...!
    Mine worked a little different. I powered the phone off, removed the SD card, powered the device on again, opened the messages-it did open and then inserted the card back in.
