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

I am surprised no one has brought it up yet here. Running great on my evo! Loads everything properly, which the free app waant for me. Loads it a little faster too so far! Hopefully they release more themes. Only negative is it doesn't seem to hide the status bar.

Is search still broken and does it still force-close all the time?

If you use your phone's search button within the App, you can successfully search? I get immediate FC and many have the same problem.
I'm more curious about the other FCs - that others have seen as well - when doing something random like changing a page or viewing an attached image. Seems like it happens most when the app has been open for a while. Can almost expect it at times. Might have to check this premium version out, didn't even know it WAS out! Thanks.

No problem.
I have never had any force closes doing anything? lucky i guess haha.
I can't help you with the search though, the rom i use has it disabled apparently.. didn't know that!

I fully agree with you with my HTC Vision running stock froyo.
Search is a 100% FC.
To avoid the other type I have always to get out the topic and exiting XDA App, before minimizing/doing something else.
Is this version solving?

I'll probably buy it just to support xda. However every single time I back out of a topic after I have been out if the app for a few mins or the next time I open it, I always get a force close. Every single time I can replicate it. I have to restart the app so it wont force close
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I cant tell you... i never got these fcs... i must have a magic phone. I am flashing another rom haha. So i will tell you if search causes fc soon.
Edit: the search button does nothing at all now... lol

It's a good looking app... also Ad-free! Only available for a limited time.. so for a dollar, may as well get it while you can.

Paid XDA is still plagued with same issues as free. Back to tapatalk

what's that voice???

Hello guys!
my friend has got a problem... this morning we were at school, and he had his phone in silent mode with data connection disabled... at a certain point, a stupid voice came out from his phone saying: "data connection disabled". it was quite loud and I don't know what could it be...have you got any ideas? remember, the phone was in silent mode and he didn't disable the data connection when the voice came out... thank you

The only time a voice ever came from my phone that wasn't a phone call - when I was applying voodoo lagfix.

I don't know in fact but this voice was one of the synthesized voices... but I don't know where it came from! hahahahahaha

Probably your friend installed any Kernel using Voodoo lagfix and it got rebooted inside his pocket... Then the Kernel converted the filesystems and the voice could have said: "Lagfix is now disabled" right before rebooting...

mmmm no, he didn't installed anything, and I clearly heard "data connection disabled"... I'm italian, I heard the equivalent of "data connection disabled" in italian... his phone is equipped with froyo 2.2.1, do you think if I flash a new ROM, maybe a gingerbread one, the problem could be solved?

Are you sure, that voice came from your phone nothing else???

yeah! from the phone! :O

Ignore, just re-read. Definately in Italian?

I remember hearing this in Google Navigation when you loose or disable data connection. There is a separate setting for navigation volume only inside the app. Who knows, maybe your friend used navigation and didn't close it properly. If you just hit BACK, this app keeps running in the background. Hope it helps.

Has anyone got this to work on the Epic??? I installed it, and the program is able to understand my commands but I'm unable to hear any responses back. If you got this to work, could you give me a step by step on exactly what you did?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I just installed it and I can here it speak. Make sure your have media volume up. I'm running acs frozen.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Also I have both the speech and conversation mode on in the settings. And make sure you have pico tts installed. The app itself is not that accurate. I like "voice actions infinity" a lot better.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Yea I think there is something wrong then. Because I downloaded other apps like Vlingo and Voice Search and again, the program understands me but when it speaks back to me, I can't hear anything. My media volume is turned up. Do I have to add something to my phone? This is so frustrating.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Ok...go to your phone settings--voice input and output--text to speech settings--default engine--pico tts. Let me know how it goes please.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Yea I went there and I selected Pico but it dosen't do anything. I even tried downloading espeak tts and when I go to select that engine it force closes. It seems like I either have something disabled or I'm missing something that won't allow me to use tts. By the way, Im able to hear fine while using a navigation program, its just anything else, I'm having problems.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

i think navigation is different since it's not actually reading anything to you from a text. are you running a costume rom or r u stock? have you tried restarting your phone after enabling the tts?

Im using the epic revolution fat free rom too by the way. I just sent a pm to the developer asking him was there something excluded from the rom that is not allowing me to hear from these programs. Hopefully he gets back to me as soon as possible.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I was just about to suggest contacting the developer. As long as you have tts enabled you should be good to go. It looks like an issue with the way your phone or rom is handling its text to speech engine. post his reply here because im sure others would like to know also (if in fact its a problem the rom). I wish i could be of any more help bro.

No doubt. I will let you know what he say. If he doesn't respond, I will post my question to the actual rom thread to see if someone could help me. Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Mine was not working either for about one minute..till i went to download that app they pretty much shove down your mouth when u first open the app. It may seem like it doesnt install..even the comments beneath will say it doesnt install...but it does..just on your sd card. It will create a folder. Go back in the app and Iris is working like a charm!!

PLEASE CLARIFY What Rom For Epic 4G Will Auto Act With SPRINT

there is 100 posts about people not wanting the automatic activation to start on their epic after flashinf a new ROM. i want the opposite, i can not for the life of me find a ROM that WILL work with automatic activation with sprint after flashing.
can anyone please point me towards a ROM that fits the bill?
thanks in advance

Not sure what you are asking. Is it about the OTA to Gingerbread or hands-free activation? I have done hands-free activation on a few ROMs with no issues. No rooted ROM will let you get the OTA updates.

I infer that the OP is talking about hands-free activation. If that's the case, I have flashed a bunch of roms from 2.1 through 2.3 and hands-free always worked.
Can you elaborate?

He may have odined with efs clear or whatever checked off. I don't remember exactly what it was but phones weren't reactivating without calling sprint.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

Mine reactivated fine. 3 days later it wierdly disconnected and the call went to Sprint and they reactivated it. Had nothing to do with the ROM.

When I fist got my epic and was switching phones I contacted the sprint chat support and they had me enter a dialer code and enter my # in a couple fields. The phone rebooted and was active. Not sure if that helps, I was on stock rom and even it didn't auto activate.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

sorry, to be clear, i am having a hard time with the handsfree activation after flashing a rom to this device.
many folks seem to request the exact opposite built into roms for this phone. meaning upon install and reboot, the rom will not run and complete handsfree activation.
no roms seems to have in the description that handsfree activation is supported.
does that make a little more since? if not let me know and i can give more details
thanks all

All roms have hands free supported that's why you don't see it mentioned. You only activate once brand new out of the box not everytime you flash a rom. Unless you mean the google activation then just open then market and sign in then your google acct is then activated

I agree, you only have to activate once ever, until you get a new phone. This is a non issue as a result.

Good night everybody. Love you all.

I was referring to a while back noobnl started a thread about checking off extra things in odin in relation to clearing nvram or something back when we were trying everything under the sun to fix the gps. I don't remember exactly but when you did it your phone went back too literally out of the box condition deactivated and all.

Never saw anyone requesting on the Epic threads that their phone not activate when switching ROMs. Maybe you saw that on a different phone. The only thing requested here was to stop the OTA update notification.

How did the phone become deactivated
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

the phone was completely wiped, it was a gimme from a friend, i wiped it totally and started fresh. rooted, flashed rom, etc, (froyo) and now after rest it of course starts handsfree act but it crashes before activation finishes.
depending on rom, sometimes the MIN/MDN updates before crash which allows voice/txt only. thats about it. maybe its not the rom's, but i assumed since some will at least go that far. i can not see how it would be anything else because the phone started out as if it came from manu. fresh.
thanks for input everyone, much appreciated
cheers,
disco

How about using stock rom to activate before flashing a custom? You can nandroid your current setup and restore to it after you activate.
