when I complete an SMS and close out or go back to home, the next time I open the app, it defaults to the last text.
Is there a way to get it to default to the list of all texts instead?
is there a way to sort text alpha instead chrono?

In WM6, when I had several new text messages I could do the following:
1. Go into Text Messages
2. Read the first new message.
3. On the navigation buttons i could push the "left" button and the "right" button to go back and forth between messages.
The above steps no longer work with the ROM I downloaded from this forum (WM6.1 080408 Final For Excalibur WWE with English - By Kavana). I did download and install the eT9 fix already.
Thanks!

Are you using threaded messaging or the old email style messaging? One of the best things about 6.1 is that you can use threaded messaging. To enable it, go to start - settings - accessibility - SMS Inbox threading and enable it. After that make sure to actually close the messaging app, or if you prefer restart the phone. Not exactly what you were looking for, but it makes texting so much better imo and makes switching between messages the old fashioned way irrelevant.
Yes, I am using threaded messaging. However sometimes I get messages from more than one person -- or I get alerts for work and I need to scroll through them all. It would be nice to be able to navigate to the next message with one button rather than three.
Then turn off threading messages.
Should work the old fashion way.
I recently installed vanilla messenger onto my CM7 and the settings keep reverting back to default settings when I change them. They would last one text then revert to the default settings. Does anyone know how to make the changes permanent?
The changes I want to make are unlimited threads (i.e. no deletion of old texts), always vibrate, enter is line break, and 12 pt font. These get reverted to limited threads, never vibrate, enter is send, and 18 pt font.
By default the call log in the dialer shows sms messages as well (logs of them, not the actually message). You can change this by hitting menu, then view by and selecting all voice calls. It will stay like that for a little while but then will revert back to showing them (a battery pull will also make them come back after it reboots) is there anyway to permanently only show calls in the call log?
edit: did some searching and found you cant (at least on the older samsung phones like the vibrant) unless there is a mod, or you replace the mms.apk

For me, the list type I select (calls only, I don't know why anyone would want a log of text messages...) sticks until the next reboot.
Hi...
There are a few things missing on stock app sms. One is the option for stop auto coverting sms in mms after 5sms's long, as you can read it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100920
google it, and find this is a problem from back versions till now:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2318
Other missing options are:
- Make a phone call from sms (if I get a sms from someone saying me "Call me please", I have to exit sms, go to contacts, search for it, and make the phone call)
- Save contact from unknown number (if someone send me an sms "This is my number", I cannot save directly from sms list... again, must write it down, exit sms, go to contacts, and add a new one)
Its simple things and liked to know if its possible to change and add this little options in stock sms app. I like the stock app sms... its simple, quick and usefull, but missing little things ruin it..
Thanks in advance
I was wondering on sms numbering as in when you hit the character limit and continued a long text and when i hit send it no longer numbers the pages of the long text any more since i updated The People's ROM GS3.14. Since my signal usually not that great. sometimes my texts overlap not making sense but the automatic numbering when you passed the limit helped. is there a way to get that back? or do i have to revert back to previous versions in order for my texts to start numbering longer texts? thanks in advance.
Go into the messaging app settings and uncheck auto combination
