Is there any way to delete text messages from the external screen of an LG EnV3?

The internal screen of my phone doesn't work, so I've been texting from the external key pad. But my inbox has gotten full and I can't receive texts anymore. Is there any way to delete texts using only the external screen of the EnV3?

It was awhile ago and I'm not totally sure, but I think this was discussed and the conclusion was that you can't delete texts using the external screen of the Env3. **Edit  (Found one thread: http://community.vzw.com/t5/Messaging-Text-Picture-IM-etc/No-option-to-delete-text-messages-from-front-of-LG-enV3/m-p/43042#M1684 )  It came up in one other thread that I could find and the solution was to use the internal, and similar steps were given - the only difference was using the OK for Menu and #2 for Messages, rather than the left soft key for Messages.  vWhatever works... 
What you CAN do, is open the flip, left soft key (which is the Messages menu), and there are several options - these are the text messaging ones -
1. New Message
2. Inbox (#)
3. Sent (#)
4 Drafts (#)
Press the right soft key (options) and your choices are:
1.Erase Inbox
2.Erase Sent
3.Erase Drafts
4.Erase All
If you choose Erase All, then OK - it will erase all except unread messages, and locked messages. If you choose any of the numbers, then hit OK, it will erase ALL in that category, read or not, so I would choose Option 4 to erase all but the unread.
HTH, and post back if you have further questions...

  • Is there any way to print text messages from an iPhone 3gs?

    Is there any way to print text messages from an iPhone 3GS?

    The only ways to print any text messages from any of the iOS devices is to either do a print screen and then print those photos, or you could look for a program called TouchCopy that will allow you to download the SMS to the computer and you can handle them from there.

  • Is there any way to delete saved messages from IPhone 4 memory?

    Is there any way to delete saved messages from IPhone 4 memory?

    Firstly you DO NOT have to do a factory reset / wipe device, it is simply not required to get the space back!!
    Mine had 3GB and I just got rid of it all, here is how:
    Make a backup in iTunes
    open iBackupBot (Google it)
    Go to the relevant backup
    Click on Multimedia File Manager and click on the other Multimedia files tab
    Sort by filename by clicking the Filename tab
    Find MediaDomain/Library/SMS/Attachments and highlight all of them, then press delete.  You can also click to export to a folder of your choice, if you want to save them that is. 
    Then go to System Files>MediaDomain>Library>SMS>Attachments
    They will be all listed here, highlight them all and press delete
    Then just restore that backup using iTunes! 
    Tadaa! Space recovered, your messages are still there but without the attachments! 
    P.S You may want to make two backups in case you get any of the above steps wrong, but it is simple to follow the above and not do anything wrong!

  • Is there a way to read text messages from the past in a thread that has been ongoing for months?

    Is there a way to view/recover messages from months ago in a thread that has been ongoing? The messages are not deleted. If i just keep "loading new messages" a) it will take all day, I've tried, and b) it freezes on me.

    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):
    http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/
    http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
    Both will allow you to archive your text messages to your computer and read them easily.

  • Is there any way to delete a books from the cloud?

    I used to be on my parents account and I bought a lot of books. Now my parents would like to delete some of these. Is there any way I could do this?

    They can't be deleted because they aren't stored in their personal iCloud account (and as a result, don't take up any of their iCloud storage).  They are stored in the iBooks store.  The cloud symbols are just links to their previously purchased books so they can redownload them if they want.
    If they don't want to see them, they can hide them in iTunes on their computer and they won't appear in the iBooks app on their devices.  This explains how to hide them: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

  • I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone.

    I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

  • How do I restore my deleted text messages from the iCloud?

    Is there any way to restore text messages that have accidentally been deleted?

    You would have to restore from a backup made while your messages were still on your phone (described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766).  This will revert all data and settings to those contained in the backup, not just messages.  Before doing this be sure to import all photos and videos to your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and back up your contacts (such as by syncing them with iCloud: Settings>iCloud>Contacts>On) as sometimes these get lost when restoring from a backup.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.

    You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage......
