So I use handcent and I recently noticed that none of my text messages are being deleted when the limit is reached. I currently have it set (on the stock messaging app) to delete texts over 100... but in one conversation I have over 1000, and a few others are close behind. This is obviously lagging up my texts and I want to know if there's a way I can fix this little annoyance.
Any suggestions?

I seem to have a problem where for a number of contacts (well, a lot of them) the messages don't show up in the htc messaging app...
For example when opening the message from the sense message tab it takes me to that contacts messages but it remains empty. The nr of messages doesn't seem to matter...
When viewing 'All messages' the messages are in there...
I have had this issue with multiple roms, now running topix 0.2, and always restore the messages using pimbackup.
Anyone with similar experiences or any tips/tricks?
So it's not a matter of lag, it's a matter of not showing at all
All of a sudden today my messaging app and handcent sms crashed. so i decided to turn off my phone and reboot it. now all my messages are gone. is there anyway to get them back? cause this really sucks. i had everything there.
I was told when the reserved memory amount for text messages reach a certain level it will purge all text messages. Sounds like you reached that limit.
Aw man. I didn't know this. That sucks, I had some mms pictures I hadn't saved yet. thanks man.
I know the iphone doesn't purge messages. Is there someway to increase the reserve? I don't wasn't my phone to erase all messages when the reserve is met.
Messaging>settings
uncheck delete old messages as limits are reached
yea, that's already unchecked. been unchecked and still all my messages were deleted.
I used TiBa to move over my SMS logs from my Captivate but it seems that the text app wont load because ive run out of memory. When i look in settings>memory, it shows over 10 GB free. any ideas how to fix this?
looks like the max SMS history is 999 messages, any way to circumvent?
i'm having the same problem..i want to save all of my sms messages but it limited to 999. is there anyway to fix that? either apps or hack?
I use sms backup... Saves a copy of all sms messages to gmail... Easily grouped in conversation mode...no reason to keep them all on your phone anymore...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Legitimately curious question, but would you ever need/want to go beyond 999 SMS?
I'll bet other sms apps like handcent will work great
I have to send long messages occasionally and I'd prefer for the message to send as a single MMS, rather than 4-10 SMS. Previously, my messaging app converted long messages automatically, but that hasn't been happening as of late.
I'm using PA 3.95 and a blacked out messaging app which I believe was pulled from CM10. The app version states 4.2.2-eng.mike.20130224.223649.
I can't recall any setting that would toggle the conversion on/off, but any help would be appreciated. I grew tired of Go, Chomp, Handcent, Sliding, etc. Too many updates, too many issues, too much bloat. I just want the stability and compatibility of the stock messaging app (well, the CM one).
I realized that you can go force an MMS by choosing "Add subject" while in a conversation.
I'm on stock Android 4.4.4 with root. I'm using the native app for text messaging and lately is has become really slow. My suspicion is I have too many multimedia messages so I lowered the multimedia message limit to five per conversation. I have since rebooted the phone and been using it for hours, however, when I go into text conversations and scroll thru the messages, I can see that there are many more than five multimedia messages in each conversation. I have the "delete old messages" option checked so shouldn't any older multimedia messages be automatically deleted once the limit of five is reached?
Anyone else have the issue where older text messages are not being deleted? Particularly MMS.
