Not sure if this is the correct section to post this. But does anyone know of an app that reminds you of when you have a draft in your sms app, or an unsent message, like one you are still typing? I know it seems like a small thing but I tend to get distracted while texting and dont realize I didnt sent a text and then dont check for another 2 hours or something.
Thanks ahead!

I don't particularly want to have my phone locked and needing a password to get in, but at the same time, there are messages from some people I would feel better that someone who found my Hero couldn't read.
Is there any way to 'hide' messages received from certain contacts?
Did you ever get this sorted? As I am trying to do the same thing.
This apps purports to do what you want:

I've no idea if it works as advertised.

Thanks for suggestion, having looked at it I realised I miss read the original post.
I was trying to stop the first line of the text mesage showing on the lock screen or task bar when it is received. For example, on Winmo there is a checkbox for 'display message on screen', I have it unticked so I have to go into messages to read it.
Dont suppose anyone knows how to do that?
Sorted
Just in case there was anyone else wanting to do the same as me, I found an app on the marketplace called SMS Popup that does it.
Actually Handcent SMS does a better job.
Is there a possible a permanent texting program similar to the one provided by HTC where the picture is included with the text messages but that be the primary texting application. Instead of going to the old list of text messages and opening it. Have a picture next to the person your talking to, I sometimes forget who I'am texting lol I know it sounds bad but if i had the picture next the it at all times that would be cool

I'm guessing he wants to have his sms inbox looking like it does in sense 2.5, with the contact picture next to the message.
I would love to have this as well in my sms inbox on a regular winmo6.5 titanium rom, does anybody know if there is such a thing available? (with out using sense 2.5)
Try PocketCM contacts. You still get a list of messages per contact (which makes sense), but their picture is shown at the top of the list
Hey Folks,
I was wondering if with Handcent SMS it is possible to have group conversations. I know that you can select more than one contact to receive a particular message but is their anyway for it to host conversations. With BB(I know a shame to compare) I had an application and if I sent a text to say 5 people, all 5 people seen each others replys as the phone forwarded one persons reply to everyone else and added their name. Is their anyway to get Handcent to do this? To host like a chat, if you will. It was super handy on BB being able to text 5 people, and all 5 of us carry on a conversation.
If this is something Handcent can not do, is their any other good application recommendations?
Thank you very much,
Blaine

They claim to support group sms but like you said when people reply it goes into their own individual thread from my experience. Damn shame they can't get it working properly like on BB and iPhone.
Well as dissapointing as it is thank you for confirming it wasn't just my ignorance. Such a shame though. Have you found any alternative applications that can do it?
Thanks!

Actually I just gave up and said forget it to group sms for now. I emailed handcent but never got a reply.
That's just not cool. It would really be handy for me. Weird Handcent never replied.
OT: What year car do you have? Foxbody?
Handcent has a group sms plugin on the market. Never had a need personally but it may be what you're looking for
I've downloaded tthe plugin & well...I still haven't figured out exactly what it does lol.

after searching "handcent group sms" on the market, multiple packages showed up, so far I count 9 plugins for group SMS. I'm gonna screw with it a bit. You may need to have everybody you're texting in the group running on the same SMS client... I'll see what I can figure out with it
I had the samsung captivate and i upgraded to the Note. I don't really like the way it displays my text messages. Its groups my responses together and the same for the messages I received. How do I make it alternate, my message then a response then my message again and so on. Kind of like the iPhone.

It should be threaded if you're using the stock mms ap. I've seen this happen on my friends phone. He fixed it by making sure your clock is set up right. Something with time zone and how it syncs.
This sounds stupid, but I'm on the east cost and when i go into twrp, my clock is an hour behind times. That is how your messages are grouping.

Either your time, date, or timezone is incorrect.
Thank you everyone. It was the time issue. I just had to adjust the setting for time. Thank you.
Hey I tried googling to get an answer, but couldnt find anything concrete, so figured I'd ask the wise people here.
1) Pretty much everytime I get a MMS from an Iphone user, it shows as multiedia message, opposed to a snippet of the message when im in the main all messages area. Is there anyway to get this to show the actual message vs the "mutimedia message" text?
2) Currently running MeanBean, but is there anyway to see all recipients of a group message. Anytime a group message is sent, I can only reply back to the main sender, and not to the whole group. Other members of the group can send me message as part of the chain. At the moment appears that it's only ihpone people. I believe I read this is a draw-back of sense, but couldnt find any concrete info.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
What app are you using? I use Handcent and the group messaging works fine once I corrected the settings. I also hear Go SMS works well too. I still don't get the sneak peak of the message from iphone users but everything else works.
Go SMS works better for me than the stock message app
