Remove threaded messages

Hello, I'm a newbie here. I have a ATT Tilt. I love the phone. However I hate the threaded messages. Whenever I receive a new text, the message contents are displayed on the screen. Some of my messages are private, and if some is using my phone or I am showing someone something, they can read my message. Is there anyway to remove this?
Please help
Thanks

threaded? - that's not threaded, threaded sms is where multiple sms messages are grouped together. What you are talking about is just a notification. Go into sound settings and turn off the "display message on screen" for New SMS messages

Thanks!
... so how exactly does threaded sms work

DELETED - double post

I guess the easiest comparison would be "gmail". Have you ever seen how gmail displays email messages? It basically threads all related messages together. Since text messages don't really keep a history of the current conversation, threaded text messages allow the user to see the history of the conversation all threaded together. Take a look a gmail account and it will make total sense. The Palm devices that run WM had a thread sms application but regular WM devices lilke the Tilt don't have it by default.

I was just thinking of that. So its similar to Gmail conversations... Is it based on Ajax technology as well?......Is it auto enabled, or do I have to enable it?

[DUP-ignore/delete]SMS: do you delete or let them accumulate in TF3D?

There's a bit of an interface conflict between threaded SMS and TF3D; One should dismiss (not delete) all incoming SMS's so that threaded conversations can be assimilated. However this results in TF3D reporting 63 messages...messy.
If you delete, the message truly gets dropped from the threaded conversaiton.
What are you guys doing?

The exact same message as you posted yesterday! Why do this???

Perhaps I was bored and felt like re-typing EXACTLY the same message with EXACTLY the same typo...you think??

more than 25 SMS messages ?

hi guys
is there a way to keep more than 25 SMS messages ? it appears that the phone always deletes the oldest one and only keeps 25 SMS messages ... I'd like to keep all of them ...
any tweaks to fix that ?
cheers

Are you sure they are deleted?
When I go into messages and select all messages, then select a person/conversation, if I scroll to the top there is another link saying 'older' and the previous messages are there.

wierd.... they are in "older" section ... why does it then show only 25 ? to preserve memory ?

I think I understand your comment:
in the SMS tab just 25 messages can be displayed
(Also) in the emails tab it only shows a maximum of 99 emails
to veiw any more you have to click "all message" and you get the standard WM6.1 message indox, sent, drafts etc...
Maybe its just a built in limmitation of Manilla as all your messages are still there its just they are not shown in the TouchFlo application?

It's in a conversation style ... Threaded.
If you want all to sms's to appear, like in your PREVIOUS PHONES (perhaps), you can remove the threaded style of sms's and they will no longer appear as conversations, and you will not have OLDER mentioned anywher
hope this helps

To disable Threaded view, there is a registry entry you will have to CREATE
In your registry editor - go to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM
Create Regitry entry
SMSInboxThreadingDisabled
Set Value to 1
Restart the phone
That's it.

The sms tab still shows only 25 elements, also if in "all" there's no more the "older" thread... No solution for this?

hi solved your problem?
Ive got the same problem...

Is it in WM6.5 you're talking about? Whose ROM are you using? I always get to display more than 25 SMS or 1000s of emails too.

Threaded Messaging History

I keep running into this and wonder if any one else has the issue or knows how to fix it. By default the threaded messaging window only keeps the last twelve messages and then you can tap older for the next twelve older. At some point it will stop letting you go to the older messages, even when you know there are more to see. I would like to have more messages per page and have it go all the way to the beginning of the history or texting. I have looked myself and cant find where this is set. I also searched the forums and have not found any talk on this.

i have this problem too. and for some reason after a while, my threaded messaging just deletes all the history for that contact. even what i was able to see before...without me deleting any of the messages. it's really wierd

for me it doesnt delte older msgs it just wont show them in threaded mode
if you switch to non threaded they are there but i agree its annoying and random too

Is there any way to limit the number of threaded SMS messages that are displayed? For me, it takes a while to load the window when it's a contact with whom I've exchanged many messages.
I'd like the thread to show only the last 5 messages, or so...

Different SMS applications on TD2 ?

When I open an SMS by touching the message on TF3D it opens another dialog than from the SMS inbox. I prefer the thread dialog from SMS inbox. Is there a possibility to tweak TF3D to uses this application?

Your question is a bit unclear. On my Topaz the threaded inbox is being used by default when thicking a message from the TF3D inbox.

Yes, you are right but try the following
- from TF3D open the SMS inbox (you will see the list of all recieved SMS)
- click on an SMS
Also a thread presentation will be shown but different from the one out of TF3D.
I assume from inbox it uses the WM email application. For example now you can use the pre-prepared short texts as within the email function.
Is it understandable what I mean?

the 1 from the TF3D sucks. lets say you're text'ing & accidentally close the SMS, your SMS wont be saved automatically in the draft folder.
Personally, I ditched the TF3D after a week of having it. it looks nice, but quite redundant for what I need.
