Delete deleted text messages

Is there a way to delete my deleted messages? I'm hearing that for $30 anyone can pay to have your text message history retrieved from your phone records?

You can factory reset from the recovery rom, which will rewrite the device to factory. And nobody but you can get your text history without a subpoena to the carrier from law enforcement.

  • I like to be able to edit and delete individual text messages but since the update only have the functionality to delete a whole conversation

    I would like to be able to delete individual text messages not a whole conversation. With the iOS 7 update this is no longer possible.

    Yes, that's the way it works now.

  • Can someone tell me how to delete a number which is stored in my messages list even though i have deleted the text message itself?

    Hi.  Can anyone help me? I am trying to delete a phone number which appears in my Messages list even though i have deleted the text message content it came from.

    Try logging into your Yahoo account from a computer, search out the contact you are trying to delete and manually correct or delete the bad contact.
    The bad information might be hidden as a second address or other contact information (or misspelled) and not be showing up on the iphone but will pull up the address anyway.
    I had one old address in a contact that kept pulling up each time i tried to email him. The new address was there, but the old address was what the phone kept showing. When I edited the contact info from my computer the old address went away, and the new address started poping up.

  • I deleted a text message from a number I forgot to save. Is there a way to find this message again ?

    The only way would be to restore the phone from a backup made by syncing the phone while this message was still on it.  Note: this would revert all data and settings to those in the backup, not just messages.

    If you backed up after getting the message and before deleting it you can restore your phone and the message will be back. If not then it is gone forever.

  • Permanently deleting iPhone text messages... impossible without 3rd party software?

    Am I correct in assuming there is currently NO possible way to permanently delete iPhone text messages and attachments unless you without either A. using 3rd party software that costs loads of money, or B. completely wiping your phone? This is seriously not available on these phones with all the other advanced features and tech?
    It saves gigs of txt messages and attachments permanently that takes up all of the space on your phone... I just have a hard time believing this issue hasn't been addressed....

    If the amount of storage for your Messages is not decreasing when you delete some (or all), then you need to try resetting your device to see if it will clear it up. I just went to my device and checked the amount of storage being used by Messages (13 MB). Then I deleted the 6 messages I had, and went back to check the Usage. It is now 3 MB.
    To reset your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Slide to Unlock screen displays, check your usage again.

    Verizon doesn't have the ability to delete your text messages. There is no way of getting them back.

    Help! I have an iPhone 4s, I accidentally deleted a text message and my phone is not synced. How do I retrieve it?

    You can not retrieve a deleted message that was not synced.
    There are data recovery services that "may" be able to retrieve the message.
    These recovery services can cost $1000 or more though.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    Also consider deleting and reinstalling the Mail Account in question.

    I had the same problem a year ago when I did an iOS upgrade. Now if I receive an important photo I save it to the Camera Roll
    No way I know of to retrieve them unless you have a very recent backup to restore from maybe?

  • Delete a text message in ios 7?

    I see that you can delete the text messages my touching one of the message 'bubbles' to bring up the 'More' menu and then pressing 'Delete All' in the top left corner of the screen.
    The problem I'm having is if someone texts me only a phone number (no other messaages on the screen), when you press on the message, it brings up a menu to work with that phone number (call it, add it to contacts, etc.) but the 'More' menu choice does not appear.
    How can I get the 'More' menu to appear in a situation like this so I can delete the message?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Thanks again.
    Yes, I do see how to pull up the 'More' button to delete.
    The problem I'm having is if someone texts me only a phone number or address, you can't get to the 'More' button when you hold on the message.  Instead, it's brings up a menu to work with the phone number or address.  No way to delete the message if it's the only message on the screen.
    It looks like it's something Apple overlooked in ios 7.

  • Unable to delete multiple text messages in nokia c...

    how to delete multiple text messages in nokia c7. for example in c7 there is photo album where is a mark option, once clicking that we can mark the photos and delete it. but in messages there is no such kind option. we need to select each message and select mark option. Is there any way to mark messages.
    thanks

    To 5hownewsday. Have you tried deleting with Delete all prior, and deleting each one by itself. I could not delete some texts also. So I found that deleting each one, one at a time worked for me.

  • Will updating to ios 5 delete my text messages

    will updating to i0s 5 from ios 4 delete my text messages even if i back up?

    The OS 5 deleted my apps and then corrupted my backups. Calling the Apple Care team did not help. They only corrupted my remaining backups so I have to download all the apps again and I have no "Notes" now. It will take me about 15 hours to gather together my "Notes" again and even then, they will never be complete. Don't download the new OS until they fix all the "features"!

  • I upgraded my iphone to 5.0.1 and ever since, it has decided to delete old text messages. Only with one contact though, not everybody. So for every new text message I send this person, an old one gets removed. Why? I don't want this to happen.

    I upgraded my iphone to 5.0.1 and ever since, it has decided to delete old text messages. Only with one contact though, not everybody. So for every new text message I send this person, an old one gets removed. Why? I don't want this to happen.

    Connect the phone directly to the computer, not a hub.
    Disconnect all other USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
    Disable your firewall
    Disable your antivirus
    In iTunes if it recognizes the phone click "Restore"
    If it doesn't recognize the phone:
    Disconnect the phone from the phone end, leave the USB cable plugged into the computer
    Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until the screen turns black, excactly 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP but continue holding the HOME (If an Apple logo appears you have held SLEEP too long; do it over)
    While holding HOME connect the cable to the phone
    As soon as iTunes recognizes the phone release the HOME button and it should restore.
    If neither procedure works note the exact error message and post it.

  • I deleted my text messages from my iphone 4s by accident. How do i retrieve them through itunes?

    HELP!! I deleted my text messages from my iphone 4s. I need to know how to retrieve them through itunes! I have tried alot of things and nothing is working!! Thank YOu

    If you had these messages on your phone when you last synced and haven't synced your phone again since losing them, the messages will be contained in the backup created when you synced (unless you are backing up your phone to iCloud).  If you restore your phone to this backup it will return your messages to your phone.  (If you have already syned again since losing them then you have already overwritten your earlier backup and your messages are lost.)  Restoring to a backup will revert all data and settings you your phone to those contained in the backup, not just messages.  If you have more recent data on your phone that you want to save you must do this before restoring it from backup.  If you want to restore from backup, do the following:
    Without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences.  On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".
    Connect your phone to your computer, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose your most recent backup to restore from.
    When complete, you can go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.
