Annoying Threaded Messaging

I have the original ROM on my HD but have several problems with the threaded messaging...
1. while in the threaded messaging screen if a reply is made the text icon continues to be displayed or it is not recognised a reply has been made and on the today screen (touchFlo and normal today screen) still shows as text still not read.
2. after several text messages and returning to the threaded messaging screen it returns to old texts and I have to scroll down by pressing "newer" to get to the last text.
Has anyone else had this problem?

if you dont like threaded msg, then install hd tweak and revert back to the classical way of viewing text.
as for the icon that u have an unread msg, it's usually right, u probably have a text that is not read, look down your list, if there's no unread text, then while in msg, click on inbox, and from the drop down menu, make sure that u have no unread msgs in any other inboxes u might have.
good luck

I actually prefer threaded messaging and you misunderstand the problem I'm describing. Obviously in threaded messaging the messages are one after the other and there is no option of going into individual messages. The problem is that once a reply is made the text icon should disappear but it does not.

Eris grey envelope with arrow wont go away HELP!!

Ok so this notification just started on my Eris! when I get a message(only text not emails) this grey envelope with a arrow on it comes up in my notifications even after I’ve read and replied to the message its still there until I click it and i take me to the message that ive already replied to. I’ve turned of all settings has far as auto retrieve and text notification but it still comes up! I deleted a bunch of apps thinking maybe one of them was causing this. I called htc they had no answers but to do a hard reset and lose everything not something I want to do! So if ya know something that would help please let me know thanks!

I found a fix
Aspotcat can be downloaded from the market it will show you what is running with ur text. found out some weird app was on there but no where to be found in my phone deleted it and problem solved!

Okay..seems like you have two text message applications....
IF thats the case, then try the following:
Your stock application can be reached from the app drawer...go there and then open the stock sms application...then go to settings and remove the check next to "notification"....
Now you should only have a notification every time you receive a text from the secondary application you're using..(i.e., handcent, byte sms, etc)
Now if you did that and your message is still showing..delete all of the messages in the stock application...this should clear it...or then simply open every single text up..(im sure you're running threaded messaging so it'll be a little eaiser)
If that still doesnt work...repeat the following using your secondary messaging application (handcent..blah blah)
Now if you did that and your message is still showing..delete all of the messages in the stock application...this should clear it...or then simply open every single text up..(im sure you're running threaded messaging so it'll be a little eaiser)
If you're still having problems...and are on a rooted rom....reflash a custom rom and you'll be fine!!

[Q] How to disable the SMS preview in newer builds

Does anyone know how to turn off the SMS preview in the latest com3 builds? I'm looking specifically for a fix for 21665. I am not running on an HTC phone or using Sense.
When you get a notification and click the go to sms button, it doesn't take you straight to the sms for response like it used to. Now I get a popup with the sms readout, but I can't respond directly from that.

It could be great to disable that new enhacement it makes some lack and in fact is unnecessary cause we all can see the message in threaded conversation SMS screen.

*Bump*
Has anyone figured out how to disable this "feature"? In other builds when Titanium shows "text" with the number 1 beside it and I tap where it says "text" it brings me to that new message in threaded view. Seems all COM3 builds bring you to this preview screen showing that message and then you have to close it an manually select to view the message again in threaded view. I use SMS a lot and find this extremly annoying but cannot find out how to get the functionality back to the way it used to work. I have tried builds 23139, 23138, 23121, 21680 and they all do this. Any help would be appreciated.

I would like to know this as well. Same with email. The animation is nice at first, then it's just annoying. I want to go straight to my messages or the emaiil.

Is there a way to see entire "long" messages in stock SMS client

Hello,
I cant believe that Galaxy S stock sms client cut of long sms messages and you have to dig deeper in the sms client to see the entire message.
Is there a way to change this behavior, so that you see the entire message in the stock sms threaded view ?
I have installed Handscent sms to solve the problem but it would be nice if the stock sms client could do the same.
And another question,
If I would like to change what starts if I press the "message icon" on the home screen from the stock sms client to Handscent sms client. Is there a way of doing that, so when I press the "message icon" Handscent sms start immediately.
Thanx for you time,

Dunno how handscent works, but just go to editmenu, and replace the messaging icon with the handscent icon?
edit: Applications -> menu -> Edit -> move the applications around

SWEET
I never understood that you could switch the home screen icons as well.
I'm impressed with that...not so much when they cut messages short but anyway...
Galaxy S is getting more and more pleasant to use

Iphone to android txts?

so sometimes when i get a txt from an Iphone user they show up as square, is there a way to get it to appear as the smiley or symbol its supposed to be?

I'm not really sure but if you use either handcent or go sms pro it will show the intended emoji. Stock messaging cannot parse it.
