All my sent sms are being saved in the Sent sms map. The problem is that i have unticked the option: keep a copy of the sent sms in the sent sms folder.
So despite this it keeps just saving it in the folder. How can i fix this?
Nobody got a solution?
From what I know of, the options reads "keep a copy of sent messages", and only affects e-mail accounts.
and there is no option to let it affect sms messages too?
Not that I know of. Is that a big deal anyway?

Hi,
Another thing I've noticed with the Touch Diamond is that you don't seem to be able to stop Sent SMS messages being saved in the Sent folder.
There is an option under the Messaging Tools/Options ("Keep copies of sent items in the Sent folder"). I unticked this, but my outgoing texts are still being saved, so they can make up the "conversation" threads. However, I don't want to keep them.
On my Touch Cruise, having this option unticked meant that outgoing texts were not saved, but it doesn't seem to have the any affect on the Diamond.
Anyone found a way around this?
Regards,
Ben
It's probably a 'feature' to do with the threaded sms function in 6.1.
I opened my SMS folders, went to Sent Items, and clicked Menu, Tools, Clear SMS/MMS. From that point forward, my texts have not been saved in Sent Items.

It still keeps your sent messages because they were already saved.
By changing the setting, it will apply to any messages sent from that point onwards.

Yup, I realise that...but it's still saving newly sent messages (ie even those sent after I made the change to the option and cleared all SMS messages).
I got he same case
the sent message was saved to my inbox and form the conversation when i clicked on it, any method to turn off this function? becoz it caused conflict with my SMS firewall, no matter how i blocked the sms, it still appeared on my inbox.
I was wondering if there is a way to disable the "Limit Messages" notification when you enter the SMS stock application.
I find it really annoying and I always have to hit the "No Limit" button to access a text. I have gone to the Settings but no luck. I have the 'Delete old messages' unchecked and I think thats the reason I am getting this annoying notification.
Just want to be able to have unlimited messages and if I do feel the need to delete a text I can.
Anybody finding this annoying as well?
If you really need to keep all your messages......????....use an app that will store/backup them for you
Swyped.....you may have to interpret
Good point. I have been using SMS backup to back up my text messages to my Gmail account for some time. I should have realized that I done need to keep ALL my texts.
One thing I am not sure is if SMS Backup application backs up MMS as well?
What I did from the beginning was set the text limit to the max (apparently 5000) for normal and mms and unchecked the delete old messages box. Only a temporary fix though since its not hard for me to get to 5000. At least with one person.

I believe it does (at least it seems to for me, but I haven't ever tried to restore, so ymmv).

Just verified this and the SMS Backup does not backup MMS to gmail. I looked at the settings no option.
Any body know of an app that can backup MMS to gmail?
So in under contacts there is this history tab, it shows everything that happened with a conact, calls, sms etc.
Even if, for example, you delete ur sms from ur message app, they continue to appear there.
How can I delete them or have it so they dont appear anymore? Filters reset whenever the app is killed on task manager.
Any help eill br appreciated, thanks

My friend has Galaxy S and due to an error she erased some of her icons from the Home screen. While most of them could be restored, I cannot find any way to restore the "compose message" (or was it "write message") which used to go directly to send an SMS. I'm not looking to add some specific contact, just the shortcut to send sms.
Well I'm not sure about this because I myself cannot find what you're looking for. However, why not use the text app shortcut?

My IS starts to have a weird problem since today. I can send and receive sms to and from people. However, the sms message which I sent are not saved in the phone.
There is plenty memory available in my phone. what's the problem? This is really annoying :-(
Don't want to state the obvious, but have you enabled 'save sent items' in your options?
are you using stock messaging tool or a third party app?

Yes, "save sent items" is enabled and I'm using the stock messaging tool. Without changing any of the setting, the phone suddenly stopped saving sent sms. It's really strange.
sorry, did not check your reply.
you could try backing up everything and do a factory reset.
there doesn't seem to be a reason why the sent messages are not being saved...
have u use ant 3rd party sofware like handcent/go sms...
try
- uninstall it & how your message working (test it)
- install it again
