When I receive an sms, start typing the answer and during that receive another from the same person, the latest sms stays unread in the list and a permanent 1 appears on my sms application icon. I do not know how to set the message as read without deleting it.
Any ideas how to do that?
Thanks!

Every so often I get a blank SMS in my inbox with sender labeled as 'Anonymous'. Anyone have any idea what these are?
These are normally missed call notifications. Go into HTC SMS app & use the option to browse sim card messages
I get the same thing all the time. Not sure I understand the response given above though.

Go in messages then settings then manage similar card messages
I am guessing you will see your anonymous text here.
I am orange and I think these appear when I have a missed call
Since the HTC 2.2 update, which was supposed to fix this issue, the texts' sender is delta, as in the Greek letter instead of anonymous. Very odd.
I can view conversation threads with people in my Contact list, but what if I want to review an SMS message I've sent to someone who isn't in my Contacts? Or if I've forgotten who I sent a message to? There doesn't seem to be a 'Sent Messages' folder to browse?
See the "Text Messaging" icon in your tray (near the bottom), if I click on mine it shows all my texts.

Sorry, don't know what you mean. What app are you using?
I have no tray and no text messaging icon.
I am just using the native 'Text Messaging' App - It only shows INCOMING SMS messages.

In my native text messaging app, incoming texts are displayed in yellow bubbles, but outgoing ones are in grey bubbles in the same chat window. If the contact is not in my contacts list, then just the number appears instead of the name.
Hope that helps.

Yes, If I select an INCOMING text, then the conversation thread opens and I see the grey and yellow bubbles you have described, but that only works if I can find an INCOMING text from that particular contact.
When I open the Text Messaging App, I can only see a list of RECEIVED messages (no SENT MESSAGES), so I can't select a SENT MESSAGE. There is no option to view SENT messages.
Or put it another way, I can't see SENT messages to anyone who hasn't replied.
Try sending a new text message to a non-contact (someone who has never sent you a message). Then search for the message you have just sent? You can't find it.
Go to your apps drawer and click on "Messaging" app. From there select "Text Messages". This will open all the conversations you have had. I have several in there from people who are not in my contacts due to craigslist sales and wrong number texts.
Edit: Nevermind, I think I misunderstood you. I don't know any numbers to text that are not in my contacts that haven't already texted me so I can't check what you are saying.

Yes I can.
Top entry in the list of conversations in the text messaging app.
Also, for other contacts, I see a snippet of the most recent message in the conversation, not the most recent received message - so if I was the last person to say something, it shows the start of the message I sent.
No idea what's wrong with your handset to be honest...

OK you are right, sorry for the confusion.
It's just that there is no distinction between RECEIVED messages and SENT messages in this view (They are the same colour, font, background).
I guess I am used to my WM6 device where I had seperate folders (views) for Inbox and Sent.
What I'm asking is - is there any way I can view ALL and ONLY my SENT text messages? without seeing RECEIVED?

Not with the stock messaging app.
Maybe if you were to use a third-party app like Handcent but that's really just a guess on my part as I've never used it myself...
from market - go sms pro . free right now , it has inbox, sent, outbox and all that
I know, this is my third open topic on a different issue...:-\
Ever since I got my phone, everytime it reboots it sends a batch of previously sent messages to a few contacts. The messages that are being sent did indeed go through when initially sent, however the cases that the phone selects a few recent contacts and sends a batch of sms messages again. T mobile is no help, I know xda is

I'm having the exact same problems. I've noticed some messages say "sending" even though they've already been sent and received by the other person. Once I reboot, those messages get resent.
I've searched but haven't found anything
I fixed it by uninstalling SMS Popup. If you have that installed I recommend removing it.
i use Go SMS, and i can send the a whole load of friends at the same time without any crash
Whenever I receive text messages, regardless of who it comes from, it always shows me as having 2 unread messages.
Basically, Person A sends me a single text, and I wake my phone, and see "2 Unread Messages". If Person A sends me two messages, I see "3 Unread Messages". If Person A and Person B send me one message each, I see "3 Unread Messages".
This only started happening this week. The only thing I can think would cause this is updating Light Flow and changing some settings. Any help is much appreciated!

FYI: I have sent 2 messages now, that have been group txt messages from an iphone (don't know if that matters) but when I uncheck "group message" and type my message and press send, it sends to the group.
anyone else noticing this?
it does matter that it was sent from an iPhone. think of it like a bulk email sent to you, if you click reply it replies to all that iPhone originally sent to. the easiest way is to just start a new thread, so go to your Messaging app, click new, and write that person.

so, are you saying that the "group message" check box in my txt msg application will only work for txt messages sent from an android phone (and maybe windows phone?)
or perhaps that checkbox is just not working as intended?

group message and multimedia messages are two different things. group message sends multiple sms to multiple people, and when you respond checking the box it will reply to that same group of people in the sms. when you send an mms (iphones way of handling group texts) its all contacts included in one mms (email). mms are emails, thats why you have things like attachments. it's also why if you email [email protected] youll be able to email your phone directly as an mms text.
so you replied all to all: 1 of your contacts, that 1 contact being a group mms sent from that iphone.
yes it will be different getting a message from a blackberry or windows or android phone. you can actually turn a group sms into an mms group by attaching a pic to it or anything else to it.
dont forget if they dont have data they cant see the mms tho.
