how to mark all sms messages read? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Everyone,
I can not find a way to mark all text messages read. I restored a backup of all of my texts to the phone via Super Backup and my phone now tells me a have about 6k new messages. Additionally, my messages app freezes and lags and becomes unresponsive.
My S4 had no problem with these messages and did not lag at all.
Any help would be appreciated,
thank you

SMS not saved after restart

I have a problem
My SMS inbox total is 6867
My SMS sent items total is 7230
Im running a Dopod P800W (HTC3300) and Windows Mobile 5
Is there are limit to SMS counts ?
When I restart my phone, my SMS in my Inbox "forgets" all the SMS for that day as if I received none. Same applies for my sent items folder.
As long as I restart my phone, I would lose all the incoming SMS for that day and regardless how many times I restart, it would reset to that amount.
Sometimes, I get lucky and it "remembers" the SMS's but another restart would just delete them all. Its as if changes to the SMS database are not saved.
I have all the SMS's but newer SMS's are not remembered from yesterday onwards.
Any idea?
I think it's an annoying BUG as I have the same issue..
the work around is to make sure the message application is closed when you have finished with it as this sort of saves them...It would seem that if it's running when you restart/reboot phone it looses all unsaved messages so new messages must be seen as unsaved some how.
hope that helps..

what i managed to find out that a few SMS messages were bugged when I deleted them from the Deleted Items list
this was a few days ago..
I restored using SPB Backup to a date BEFORE deleting those messages and choose not to delete them (for the sake of this bug)
So after a few tests and restarts, I dont have this problem anymore
Looks like I have 2 leave these messages in the Inbox
I have had the same problem, but now, I cant save any thing and every time I receive a text message my ppc restarts after a while.
this happened after I deleted a message from the deleted items folder
(i have 13000 text messages in my inbox and 14000 in my sent items)
what should i do?
hei , this thread is still around
anyways, i did the same thing which got me into this problem
i cant really remember but it was to do with a corrupted SMS in the deleted items folder
the thing is that deleted SMS in the deleted items cannot be deleted forever so i decided not to delete it but just move it back into the inbox (13001/14000) and it worked again
Wow.. thanks jcsy... I did the same thing too
1. Identified the SMS that is bugged (somehow, this SMS appeared multiple times) which I deleted previously
2. Restored it from the deleted folder back into my Inbox
3. Restarted my PDA
Voila! It doesn't give any more errors.... my SMS are all in tact!
The question now is - would this 'bugged' SMS harm anything in our phone? Is it a virus?
i think its an SMS which should be corrupted somehow in the database since its a big one, which we maintain
thousands of SMS's
well, i didnt bother about it and now all my SMS continues to save as normal
glade that solved your problem
but ive got a new problem now instead, which is killing me...

Recovering data, SMS issue

Hey guys, I have just tried doing a hard reset and recover using the built in backup. It restored my data perfectly after the hard reset, although now when I recieve messages, the message does not go under the correct conversation.
For example I already have a conversation with BOB and JANE. I get a sms from JANE, which shows up inside BOB's conversation.....
I installed handcent sms which I guess I will uninstall and see how it goes. Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue?
So far the only way to resolve this in my experience was to delete ALL sms threads. All the sms I am now receiving are going to the correct conversations. What a stupid bug.
I just went into my gf's conversation on my phone, then sent a sms through it, it went to my boss....WTF? I get a sms back from him and it goes into my gf's conversation.....

[Q] SMS Message inbox showing empty

Hi guys,
Just want to ask if some of you experience this?
Sometimes when I go into my SMS inbox it says "empty". And even when I received a text, it will still say "empty" in my inbox. I have to restart my phone and then all messages are back.
I use stock messaging app and GO SMS.
Unrooted phone

Thanks

mind to share is it every time happened?? have u uninstall "go sms" ... and try??
Actually I first experienced it when I was using stock sms app.
Then I still experienced it after I installed GO SMS.
It happens once in a while but not frequent. I'm just curious if there's a way to stop it from happening.
Thanks

Galaxy S3 With Cyanogemod - SMS no notifications and always set to read

Hey guys, so I've been trying to resolve this issue that I've been having with my SGS3 today. Whenever I receive a text message it comes to the device and I can read it fine. The only problem is; is that I don't receive any notifications and they're always set to read, so I can't even see them through my DashClock extension. This is kind of a big deal, because I happen to text a lot with friends, and family, and they get kind of pissed when i reply an hour later once I finally open up the Messaging app and see I got a message.
Thanks!
UPDATE ------ This was being cause by the AT&T Messages app. It was installed on the device but not set up and it was blocking Notifications from other SMS applications (Ex. FB Messenger or Stock Messages)

[Q] Messaging limit?

Is there any like limit for how many messages you can have in one conversation, because when i restore my messages then messaging to and from one version stops working the SMS app became unusable until restart then the messages arrive or are sent. its about 5100 messages in that conversation.
Any ideas? thanks

From personal experience the stock LG messaging app sucks alot, had the same problem restoring or deleting alot of messages at the same time, the app would crash so i switched to a diferent app, been using Textra and never had any problems again.
