Can not delete text messages

Hi, i am trying to delete empty old text messages. I have tried everything. I tried to delete them one by one. I tried to delete them by selecting them and hit delete and even tried delete prior, no luck. I tried to reset the hub, but still there. My message in the text was deleted, but they still show up in the hub. Please help, thank you.

Hello srandazzo01,
Thank you for your question.
You may need to delete the entire chat history for that contact. Are you able to do so?
Cheers,

Can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back

can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back...help taking up a lot of space.

Try this...
Close out all apps (double click the home button and swipe up) then delete one thread. Do a hard reset of the phone or ipad, then wait a few minutes and it should be gone. I just did this with a thread that had thousands of txt and it worked for me. The older phones just don't have much processing power.

How can I delete text messages from my iphone?

Hello everyone,
How can I delete text messages from my iphone? I do not want to reset my iphone setting. If it is nesscary to reset my iphone setting, will I lose everything?
Please let me know,
Thanks,

Just delete them. Or, do you mean beyond just deleting them? Then, you'd need to wipe the phone - select Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. That's a secure wipe of the iPhone contents, takes several hours (connect to AC power). You'll need to set your phone up from scratch (and erase the old backup(s) from your computer, since your SMS history is part of the backup).

After updating to IOS 8, I can not delete individual messages, and the trash can is gone

After I updated on IOS 8, I can not delete individual messages, only delete all and the trash can is gone!!! Anyone else having this problem?

The option is still there - hold down on said text - more - then hit the trash icon.

I CAN NOT RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES FROM PEOPLE USING IMESSAGE

On an iPhone your iMessages will go to your phone number.
You can select another email to use on iPod or iPad.
Go to settings
Messages
Send and receive
Check your phone number and uncheck the common Apple ID you share so your messages will not go to other devices.

All of a sudden I can not receive text messages on my MOTOX. Does anyone know how to solve this problem. I can send them, but can't receive them.

My MOTO X was working fine, then all of a sudden, I can not receive text messages. I have checked the settings and they look correct to me, and I have done everything the web site recommends, except wiping the phone and starting over, to try and fix it. Has anyone else had this issue, and how did you resolve it?
Thanks so much.

That's strange that your Moto X wont receive any text. Thank you for trouble shooting the issue. Let's see what's going on! Does your device have any physical or liquid damage? Does anyone else have an issue with calling or texting? What zip code are you in?

Reset your phone by holding down the home button with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. Try it again.

Can not delete individual messages on ios8

I can not delete individual messages in iMessage after I "upgraded" to ios8. If you hold down on the message, tap "more", THERE IS NO TRASH CAN ANYWHERE ON THE SCREEN. There is no option I have found anywhere, except to delete the entire conversation. Please help.

Thanks heaps.....the trying to enter a reply, then swiping downward on the keyboard worked. That is the first useful suggestion I've seen for multiple posts with this question, so thank you very much. Hopefully the next update will fix that problem so you don't have to go through the delete process the long way, but happy to use it as a temporary measure in the mean time.
Thanks for taking the time to help.

I can not send text messages

this is a new problem on my g4. all of a sudden I can not send text messages when i am in my home. this happens on my s4 and my sons s4 but my daughter uses an iphone and she is not having this problem. i can receive texts, facebook, email etc I just can not send texts. Nothing in my house has changed except that Comcast just put in a new modem, I am not tech savvy at all so not even sure that would affect my out going texts
any suggestions would be great

Hi scrappy1989,
Let's see what's causing the problem! Are you using a 3rd party messaging application? Are you having trouble sending picture and text message? Do you experience the issue with everyone you send a message to? Do you receive an error message? I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Can't delete text messages.

I am a veteran bb user and have had the q10 for almost 2 weeks. I just downloaded the software upgrade 10.1.0.4189 And I problem I did not have in the past as appeared... Before the upgrade I had no problem deleting an entire text message... Or components of it. Since the upgrade I can not delete a text message... I can go into the conversation and delete components of the message... And empty every entry out of the conversation... But the persons name still appears in the texts and I can not delete it... It lets me touch the trash can. And it asks be to confirm I want to delete it.. But it does NOT delete it. I can delete emails BUT not text... Like I said this has only become a problem since I downloaded the update. 2 other odd behaviors in text are these... When I select the trash can icon it jumps to the left... Out from under my finger... And when I am in a text and I want to add a picture to a conversation... It notifies me that it is converting to mms and THEN the contact appears at the top of the message Twice and gets the picture twice... From every text after that it delivers the message to the contact twice. Since I can no longer delete a text from my bb currently I started a new message thread again with the person so they wouldnt get the message twice and although my two line only showed their name once... it sent the plain text twice AND when i looked at my sent messages it had tagged the single message on to the one that puts the person name twice The odd thing is this only happens some times... Not all conversations add the contact again... All notify me it is converting to mms. But only the first time... Then every message after that even plain text lists all sent as mms... The problem is I can not delete the thread... So my friend is being irritated by doubles of everything I send him.

Well, it was a direct answer to your specific question...if you didn't want an answer, then I'm confused why you would even then ask the question that you asked.

I can not delete unwanted message because I am not getting the delete button popup to activate deletion. Where did it go!?

I can not delete unwanted emails because my delete prompt button is not appearing after I prompt edit and choose my email to edit. How do I make the prompt button to appear on edit page as before? Thanks MRH

Close out of the mail app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
then do a reset, no data loss. Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
then check and see if you can delete emails.

N95 can not sent text messages

Hi,
I have been using my N95 since UK release without a problem but now it is refusing to send texts. When I try to send one, it goes to my outbox with status 'Resend in...', tries a few times then fails telling me that the memory is full. I can still recieve texts and I can send and recieve MMSs. I've seen a couple of previous posts about this but none had conclusions.
I am on O2 and am running V11.0.026. I am not running any other applications. These are the things I have tried so far:
Restarting the phone, Resetting the message settings, Deleting all messages (inbox, outbox, sent, drafts, emails), Setting the 'Memory in Use' to my memory card and to phone memory, Sending to different phone numbers.
If anyone has any ideas about what to try before resoring Factory Settings then I would be very happy to listen.
Thanks for reading
Gus
