I think you can choose max sms, I don't remember which Rom and which phone but I have seen it somewhere

Yeah, on stock rom you can choose how many sms you would keep overall and also how many you'd keep per conversation Check it on sms app settings
Also every sms app have this settings but I know no-one that let you set the oldest sms to keep :/

problem sending sms?

hi all,
first off big high 5 for wolf! the time and effort he puts in is incredible, hope he actually gets to go outside sometimes lol
the issue I have is with sending sms, it works fine for maybe a day or so but then I find it will not send a msg it just stays in the 'pending' state. so I have to go into testing menu and refresh and update the sms service number then reboot the phone to enable me to sent texts again.
has anybody got any ideas what it might be? I have a feeling that its something to do with when I turn the internet on but I'm probably talking crap.
I am using wolfbreak 4.0.3 with zkernal.
cheers guys.

are you using the stock sms app? maybe give a try with other sms app
hi, yeah Ive always used handcent. Maybe I should try the stock msg app?
I was also having the same issues when using Z's kernel.I switched to Dooms Kernel and it corrected it. Also you may wanna check your Apn settings,you need two listed-one for data and another for SMS.

Hi Guys,
I think you didn't got my point correctly the problem i am facing is not the sound notification. When i access the sms messages the press the back button there is a creech type of bell sounds come and when a new sms arrives the creech bell sound along with my notification sound of sms is also coming how to solve this. This only happens in stock sms application. I am using unnamed rom v1.2. Any suggestions to solve this. Thanks in advance.

SMS shortening of availiable chars

In the new, 6.1.A.2.45, it appears an option for special chars to convert them to non special, but equal chars to avoid the shortening to save me from using 2 or more SMS that I used to send in GB. Why is this a problem now on ICS, why could I send SMS with all those chars before in GB, and the reciever would get them just as I had sent them.
Does anyone have a theory, or a solution to this freaking problem?
I have same problem. I would be glad if somebody help us.

I'm on .45 also and was looking for that option... but to turn it on!?
My normal message runs on at least 3 or 4 sms and don't send a lot of words... but words like olá or então increase the size very much.
There should be an option to turn this function on and off!
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
seems like no one cares about this, since it affects only a few languages.
I flashed back GB and there I enabled Saving. Then flashed ICS without wiping data and voila.

SMS Backup & Restore problem

Hi there, i have been using sms Backup & Restore for a while now since i have been swapping a lot of roms and i wanted to keep my smses safe with this program. It has been working flawlessly until now. I flashed rgui miui b9 and when i tried to restore my smses i got my conversations split in two. Its not like i have my Messages in two times Its Just that they are split. I am uploading an ss to let you get what im saying.

you mean to say its not in threaded view right? some jb roms are having this threaded sms view issues.
Ics based :-\

i think thats relevant with miui. i used miui on my old galaxy sl. same issue happened to me. the solution is not certain but you can try changing your contact number , add the country code the numbers and restore your smses again. let me know its worked or not.
Sorry for my English.
You mean add the full Number on the selected Contact? The Number is 12345 and i added +30 on front of it. Still no luck any more ideas?

[SOLVED] SMS counter with contacts

Hey guys, guess I have a question:
Is there a sms counter that shows the number of sent messages for each contact?
On roms like cyanogenmod with that stock android messaging app it's like that:
Darth Vader (578)

Now on our stock sony rom, there's no counter. Maybe I could edit the apk or is there another app from the playstore that counts my messages for each contact?
Thanks in advance!
I searched for such a thing but I couldn't find a counter for each contact.. I found a normal counters for the whole SMSs
If u find a solution or alternatives I wish u can PM dude.. Good luck

Yes, I'm using "SMS Counter" at the moment and it's very good! But it just informs about all sms, sms in one month, sms per week, sms per day. But not for every contact
I hope somebody knows how to get an app like that
By the way I've tried to install the stock messaging app, but it just hangs after opening the app, because I have all my old messages. Maybe a way to fix that?

Sorry to interrupt. I had found such an app. It showed graphical representation of whom called and whom messaged and how many times. U could set an interval to it like u want statistics of one month, one day, one year. I ll just link you once i find it. Coz i used it almost 5 months ago when i was on stock non rooted..
I ll link here once i find
Btw mihahn used ur tutorial to unlock bootloader of my arc s. Really wonderful. Thanks a ton

Hmmm...install SMS Backup & Restore from Playstore....use it to backup all your sms first....
then using Root Explorer go to....
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
delete....
1.mmssms.db
2.mmssms.db-journal
or copy it into your sd card in-case there a problem while restoring sms using SMS Backup & Restore...
once delete or copy, boot your phone....after reboot open stock messaging app....it should be empty...setup all the necessary setting on messaging app first then use SMS Backup & Restore to restore you backup sms....if somehow there a problem after restoring....then use copy and paste back those files above to the same folder with permission (rw-rw-----) then reboot....
Thank you both! Will try both methods, second would be better because I like the stock app
I've tried the method by just wiping data and restoring it but after reboot I got the message "2387 new messages by ..." and if I open it's just stuck there... Hope with deleting the data base it could work :good:

Okay so now I nearly fixed it:
1. Backup all messages using SMS Backup + Restore
2. Push MMS.apk to /system/app/ and set permissions
3. Reboot
4. Sms app has problems, doesn't work anymore
5. Delete everything in /data/data/com.android.mms/databases/ (two files were in there)
6. Reboot again
7. Everything worked, messages are still there, no need to restore again
Only problem: the date is wrong in the new messaging app (01.01.1970, 01:00), looking for a way to fix that
Thank you both guys! Thank you very much :good:

Yes the other app is great, too, but better would be the stock messaging app, because nobody knows where my data goes with a third party app. And it has some ads and automatically creates some shortcuts and boookmarks on my device. That's not really good
Just checked it: the problem about the date is not because of the backup app, it's because of the messaging app

I know about the solved tag but it's not completely solved, maybe there's a solution for the wrong date in the stock messaging app

Just solved it, you need to uncheck the option to show the date when it was sent. Then it'll show the date when you received it and this one is correct. Now it's working great! Thanks all

Yes only problem is I can't set the option to view the date when it was sent instead of the date when I received it ( it shows 01.01.1970, 01:01 for every message I received), but that's not a big problem. So it's solved now

Hi mihahn,
Sorry for being late but try this apk - http://db.tt/gXteGgJG
It is the messaging app from FXP 215 CM9.1. It has the SMS counter for each contact. I think it is just what you are looking for.
