Message History Screen

Hey guys ..I just noticed that there is a History of all my texts and there is no way to delete or clear this. Im not talking about the regular text message screen Im talking about the "history" screen.
Does anyone know how to remove this information?
thanks.

Whaere is the history part? I just checked mine and don't see any history?

None. At all. At least none i can see. I use launcher pro so i just hid my contacts but that still doesn't take care of the fact that its there. If you delete the contact then add it again it works but that a TON of trouble!
Please, if anyone knows anyway at all to get rid of this, even the entire screen as opposed to just the info, lemme know! What a PITA.

Quick google search on this and apparently motorola and verizon are swamped with complaints about not being able to delete the history. Supposedly will be addressed with a software update? No ETA though...

I think I remember reading that Google got some bad press over this .. another one of those Privacy Faux Pas' like Buzz.
Not sure if there is a way to clear it ... I took a quick look and didn't see anything obvious.

holy! watch what you say and send to others... lol

Bump to keep this at the top. Would love a fix!
I have figured out that if the contact isn't linked then it doesn't seem to show up...... could be totally wrong tho.

So at some point wont this be a massive amount of information stored on the phone?

I think it's only for a certain period of time or a certain number of contacts.

I think moto is aware of this issue and it'll be patched up on the next ota update.

I doubt the memory footprint is significant. There are a number of system information apps/gadgets that will show you how much free storage you have, or just check it out in the settings.
The bigger concern is for privacy issues. IMHO

I agree about privacy. How are u supposed to have a girlfriend and then other girls on the side with this? Come on moto think about us unfaithful lying cheaters out here!!!how am i supposed to keep my girlfriend from knowin about all my infidelities? Lol. As the heartbreak kid i must have privacy!!!
Edit:for those who don't know this is a sarcastic statement. Haha

Stop Battery Saver

When the Vibrant gets down to around 15%, stock apps like the camera will discontinue to work. Now I think that's nice of Sammy to consider we'd like to save our battery but I'd like the choice. Sometimes I might just be in the situation where I need to take a picture at that time. So does anyone have an idea if we can get around this some how?

almost positive you can use a third party camera app from market, but yes I know, this is annoying

I made a think tank about this but noone seems to really know how to disable it or if they do they haven't posted on that topic lol

I'm soo sick of these manufacturers trying to grow a brain and screwing up a perfectly good OS!! first motoblur and now this samsung crap. Cyanogen and the rest can't come soon enough. This is almost enough to make me regret not dumping t-mobile and getting the evo like I planned. So far the only real saving grace of this phone has been swype and divx playback.

Anyone elses XDA app FCing when replying to other posts?

As asked in the subject......
Anyone?

XDA app doesn't do that for me, but Taptalk does.
Forgive My Brevity. To Be Or Not To Be...

yeah i get the FC for tapatalk

Constant force-closes on the XDA app for me - though lately it's been better. Also, it constantly gets stuck while loading - I have to hit the "back" button and tap again, and it'll work.
I find that I get fewer force-closes if I have WiFi on.

I get it in the XDA app also although i doubt this may be it but I've replied to a few posts and when I reply with softkeyboard it seems to send with no issue. If i use the hardwarekeyboard even if i close it then hit submit i seem to still get the FC. Im not sure if thats something to look into cuz it may be the length of the post also. When i have something short and simple i use the softkeyboard and when its long i use the hardware one so maybe happening on longer posts/replies???

Using tapatalk. No fc's but it gets stuck alot.

No problems here so far, have been using mostly physical keyboard. Though I am usin swype right now to see if it makes ay difference

Report all FC's to Google

Someone is bound to get angry at this or something for pointlessness but just wanted and hoped everyone reports all FC's that occur

LMAO try pressing the button that says "report" on the force close box

Same I report all of them too.
I also leave comments on apps that I've tested and failed or has poor implementation on Honeycomb. Hopefully, if devs see enough complaints, they'll put higher priority on updating their apps for Honeycomb.

I am interested to know what programs people are running that crash alot. For me, it was just the xda app and now after the last update I haven't had one with that program. Both my Xoom and my wife's have been running great.
Now just give me flash and I will be stoked

"Yes."
(... IOW, it could be any of 'em lately. I think the underlying HC API might still have bugs in it; I rarely get FCs with my Froyo EVO.)

This also unfortunately, is a problem with gingerbread as well. I report apps on both my nexus s and xoom all the time.

Facebook, browser although good has CRAZY weird stuff at time (delayed typing, delayd pinch to zoom in/out, soft force closes, I even got flashing web page and previous app) media player with proper coding has some very infrequent flash to home screen then back to movie.
None of this really bother me and I know Facebook isn't properly gingerbreaded, its just good for all of us and google to be informed.

what did u do today with your g2 ?

I used my g2 to:
map
track
stream music
play playlists
navigate from google maps, WHILE STREAMING MUSIC, AT DIFFERENT VOLUME LEVELS
take pictures
720p videos
share all of the above, along with editing the gps track
and it never missed a beat
navigation over music is a very very nice touch. noise cancelling headphones, navigation, pandora, and a external cig charger on a dualsport is a goood goood thing !
(someone poke microsoft, I think balmers fallen asleep @ the wheel again)

Used it as an integral part of locating and destroying Osama Bin Laden, and saving the world for another day....(for security reasons I can't be too specific)....
Just another day with my G2...

phone calls
txt msg
read the news
and flashed the new pershoot kernel

That kind of commentary is best left for arfcom or some other jingoistic corner of the internet.
My G2 woke me up today. I checked my email and have sent several dozen texts, fielded one 20 minute phone call, and put some nice new live wallpapers on for when I'm trying to force the last few bits of juice out in a hurry for battery calibration. Yesterday I used it for nav.

I snuck behind a robber in my house and killed him with my sturdy G2.

Made it even more awesome because I added the new "Mixer Theme" to it.

Once these arrive, I should be able to actually use my G2 without being terrified of the battery dying around noon.
