I have owned my touch pro 2 for a little under one month now and I love it. I do how ever have a problem with the way txt messages work. I tried to use a program i liked on my old HTC touch. The program did not work.
Basically I am looking for a threaded message in the 3d flo screen. I do not like that I have to scroll through 6 messages from the same conversation to find a message from someone not affiliated with that conversation.
Any ideas of what program to install?
P.S. this phone is t-mobile branded if that helps.
Default TF3D (Non T-Mobile) works as you require if that helps.
No real suggestions other than to remind you you can look at messages through the individual contact to see the messages exchangedd ONLY with that particular contact and not have to slide through the different messages on the message tab. You can also tap on the "all messages" and it will give you the messages grouped by conversation, not individually.
yeah. thats the just of it.
ive had this problem on nonsense, and cyan6, and im sure im just over looking something.
when I get a text message, in my notification area, not only do I get the text, I get an additional message, stating the above. And my text message icon remains until i click the "new sms" message also, so annoying.
I can not find a setting, to let the regular text come through and alert me, and have the "new sms" message go away.
anyone wanna share some love with me?
i searched Q&A for a lil bit, but it seems like its just me maybe?
Thanks, anyone out there.
Are you using the stock Messenger or another one? Sounds like it might be Notifications turned on for different Messenger Apps.
I have no other messaging apps installed whatsoever, just the stock Messaging app.
And, to add on, the notification ICON i get, is a envelope style icon, instead of the standard Text message icon.
and when i click the "new SMS" notification, it just takes me to the stock messaging app / list view of messages.
SOLVED
****. It was coming from the app "Block SMS"
All it does, is auto-delete texts from certain numbers as soon as they come in, but there are no settings at all for alerts.
It doesn't even alert for anything else. JUST for new messages.
Thanks anyone for reading!
I can view conversation threads with people in my Contact list, but what if I want to review an SMS message I've sent to someone who isn't in my Contacts? Or if I've forgotten who I sent a message to? There doesn't seem to be a 'Sent Messages' folder to browse?
See the "Text Messaging" icon in your tray (near the bottom), if I click on mine it shows all my texts.

Sorry, don't know what you mean. What app are you using?
I have no tray and no text messaging icon.
I am just using the native 'Text Messaging' App - It only shows INCOMING SMS messages.

In my native text messaging app, incoming texts are displayed in yellow bubbles, but outgoing ones are in grey bubbles in the same chat window. If the contact is not in my contacts list, then just the number appears instead of the name.
Hope that helps.

Yes, If I select an INCOMING text, then the conversation thread opens and I see the grey and yellow bubbles you have described, but that only works if I can find an INCOMING text from that particular contact.
When I open the Text Messaging App, I can only see a list of RECEIVED messages (no SENT MESSAGES), so I can't select a SENT MESSAGE. There is no option to view SENT messages.
Or put it another way, I can't see SENT messages to anyone who hasn't replied.
Try sending a new text message to a non-contact (someone who has never sent you a message). Then search for the message you have just sent? You can't find it.
Go to your apps drawer and click on "Messaging" app. From there select "Text Messages". This will open all the conversations you have had. I have several in there from people who are not in my contacts due to craigslist sales and wrong number texts.
Edit: Nevermind, I think I misunderstood you. I don't know any numbers to text that are not in my contacts that haven't already texted me so I can't check what you are saying.

Yes I can.
Top entry in the list of conversations in the text messaging app.
Also, for other contacts, I see a snippet of the most recent message in the conversation, not the most recent received message - so if I was the last person to say something, it shows the start of the message I sent.
No idea what's wrong with your handset to be honest...

OK you are right, sorry for the confusion.
It's just that there is no distinction between RECEIVED messages and SENT messages in this view (They are the same colour, font, background).
I guess I am used to my WM6 device where I had seperate folders (views) for Inbox and Sent.
What I'm asking is - is there any way I can view ALL and ONLY my SENT text messages? without seeing RECEIVED?

Not with the stock messaging app.
Maybe if you were to use a third-party app like Handcent but that's really just a guess on my part as I've never used it myself...
from market - go sms pro . free right now , it has inbox, sent, outbox and all that
Hi,
I have a problem with an sms hanging somewhere in the system but invisible in messaging. It happened when a message arrived during messaging freeze (sometimes happens but that's another story). Now I have a new message notification (green "1" mark in manilla) but the unread message can't be seen in messaging, so I can't delete it. When I delete any other message the notif. disappears but when another message arrives it appears again.
Is there a way to get rid of it? Maybe go to some database where the message probably is and delete it?
Thanks for any help.
btw. Multiple soft reset did not help.
I found the appropriate database with pocket mechanic but there is no message that I wouldn't see in messaging. So where the heck is the notification coming from?
Thanks.
I like the look and feel of the standard SMS app, HTC Messages (I have tried all the others), but I have a problem with one aspect to it and I was wondering if anyone had a solution.
I like to receive a "message received" confirmation and so select in the setting to get one, but I also like to get a "popup" on the lockscreen of the message details - but if you select "display message on lockscreen", you also get a standard notification for message received. With all the other SMS apps you just get a tick within the message bubble (which you get as well with HTC Messages).
Is there anyway to still get a "message received" confirmation (as a tick within the message bubble), but no standard Android notification AND have a popup on the lockscreen?
Cheers
