Writing text messages... BUG

When i write a text message, the text does not scroll in the preview. In System font size 9, this works fine, but the error occurs at larger. i think it's a bug..

Ah, I see what you mean now, I've just tried it with 18 and it only shows the new line when you've typed (presumably to the end of the line) not while you're typing.
It's like the letters being typed are hidden off screen.
Definately a bug I'd report it if I were you.

HT3597 Does voice control work on writing text messages?

Can you speak into the microphone on an iphone 4 to write text messages to someone in your contact list--and send it that way as well--via voice control?

Hi lesliefrommo,
The feature you are asking about is called Dictation.
It is available for the iPhone 4S and iPad (3rd generation).
iOS: Using Dictation
However, you can type "dictation" in the search field of the App store on your iPhone, you will find some alternatives for your model.
Hope this helps!

Really... are you certain of that?
Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore.
Has any of that been tried?
What exactly have you done to determine that a "bug" exists?
Yes, all of that. 3 phones, all 4S's do this. it's a bug. I am not a newb.

Problem in writing text messages

Can anybody help me in understanding why every time i write "de + space" in emails or messages, the blackberry automatically puts the date. How can i avoid this problem?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is a Word Substitution shortcut. Go to Settings >Language and Input >Prediction and Correction >Word Substitution. In that list you likely have the letters "de" with an arrow showing it changing to %D.

Contact pictures not showing in text-messages section of HUB

I noticed a bug/mistake in the text-messages section in the hub.
When you are writing text message, contact pictures in the top left corner are showing only
for some contacts.
I don't know whats the reason for this.
Does anybody have this issue also - or does anybody know a solution?
Regards Johnny

Hello johnny_1830,
Thanks for your feedback, do these contacts have pictures saved in the contacts profile? Or is the contacts picture linked from a social media account for example Twitter or Facebook?
Thanks.

In my iPhone 4 interface (running OS 7.0.4), a red number used to appear, to indicate a new text message. That number hasn't appeared for a few weeks. I can't seem to find a way to turn it back on using the Settings. Is this a bug?

A red number used to appear in my interface when I receive new text messages. That number no longer appears. Scouring the Settings to turn it back on hasn't been successful. Is this a new bug? How can I get the red number to appear again?

Quit, then relaunch the App.
Restart the device.
Reset the device.
Reset all settings of the device.
Test after each step.

Dear Apple, unfortunately, I think I have found a bug in ios 7. During an incoming call is no call rejection or selection of the ability to send a text message. I hope it is a bug and there is a solution. Thank you very much.

Text messages freeze when writing them tried restarting

In the last few days I have noticed when I am writing a message the iPhone 4s is freezing and I have to wait approx 10 seconds for the cursor to flash to indicate I can continue. It happens during a message. It's very annoying. I have tried restarting my phone but the problem persists. Any help would be very welcome.
Thanks

I just got off the phone w/ customer service and they said something about Verizon switching it's texting service from one thing ot another so thats why its messing up. and that it should be resolved by 6am CST. they guy didnt know why it happened both last and tonight but he said that it's on random lines (ex. my phone doesnt work but my mother's does) and shouldn't happen again but he couldn't guarantee it

My iPhone is skipping back to the start of a song every time I unlock it, especially when I am replying to a text message, this is very frustrating and just want to know if it is a simple bug that will be dealt with in the next update?

Assuming the phone isn't jailbroken, the basic steps (as needed) are:
Restart phone (you already did this)
Reset phone
Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
See appendix B of the User Guide for details
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
If your phone is jailbroken, this is the most frequent cause of the problems you described. Restoring could permanently brick the phone.
Note that your iOS is old and the current version is 4.2.8. It's odd that it wasn't updated when your activated your phone in iTunes, being that you got it last Friday.

IOS 5 Messages bug in group text

Since upgrading to iOS 5, I can no longer successfully send a group message when at least one device is an iPhone/iPad etc. and at least one device is NOT an iPhone/iPad etc. When I try it, the non-iPhone devices receive a blank message. By this I don't mean that they don't receive anything but that the non-iPhone devices receive a message and it is blank.
This happens even though it shows on my iPhone that the message was sent out as a text message and not an iMessage. I reported this to AppleCare but they seemed to be confused that this is how it should be. It would seem to me that the Messages app should be smart enough to know if at least one of the recipients is not an Apple device based on the contact info category and if so, it should send the message out as a text message.

After running a few more tests I found a seemingly anti-intuitive work around.
If, in Settings for Messages under SMS/MMS, I turn off Group Messaging, the messages go through too all devices regardless of type. The problem occurred when Group Messaging was on.
So I am now confused about what Group Messaging in SMS/MMS means if I am able to send a group message successfully when this is off but not when it is on.

Lost text messages after ios 8 upgrade

I recently upgraded my iphone 5 to ios 8 through iTunes on my PC. After the upgrade, I lost all of my text messages and many of my photos on my photostream. My photos were backed up, so I'm not as worried about that. Is there any way to recover the lost text messages?

Same here.
Haven't found a solution yet.
please report as a bug - Apple do not monitor these forums.

Text Message incomplete or missing? Also-SMS editing / backspace malfunction...

First issue - sometimes I received text messages that are missing the last few words/characters. I don't think this is an Android or iPhone originated issue as this happens at random from people that I know have different types of phones. Sometimes the 160 character split will break up the message and send the rest in another message, but most of the time I never see the end of the message. I currently use the existing text messaging app in conjunction with the SMS pop-up. The issue was prevalent when I used Handcent and then uninstalled it to see if that was the problem. I have also uninstalled SMS pop-up to see if it was the problem with no luck. I have looked over the settings multiple times and still cannot find anything that would be causing this. Suggestions are welcome.
Second issue - when editing a text message in portrait mode I may erase multiple characters by holding down the backspace key. On occasion, the app flips out, reverts to showing the very first message that was sent or received for the contact, freezes momentarily, and then two buttons appear on the bottom giving me the option to Cancel or Delete. I will hit Cancel or use the back button on the bottom of the phone multiple times before it will return to my message, which at this point has saved as a draft. This is EXTREMELY frustrating. It does it only at random, but it seems to be getting more frequent. The only option most of the time is to go Home and then return to text messages, find my draft, and use the backspace key carefully (and one quick push at a time to erase) so as not to invoke the same issue.
I think both of these are bugs that may be inherent with this phone in particular or possibly Gingerbread...
Thanks!

I've been having this same issue for the past few months, in my case the problem seems to be more prevalent with text messages originating from other carriers (but not always, occasional partial incoming text issues from Verizon wireless phones as well). I called technical support, followed all their advice (basic tech advice, power cycle, remove sim, reboot, etc.) and was also transferred to HTC support that recommended a hot fix, which didn't really do anything to resolve the issue, also then did a factory reset and still no resolution. Not sure what other options I have....besides waiting for a new device when I am able to upgrade. Off topic, I think its Bee S to not be able to upgrade to a new device within 2 years, when Verizon does not fully support, properly updated/hotfix, existing issues in a timely manner...why is it that we are using and outdated OS, when a new one is out and available. Another compelling argument to purchase an iPhone (on any carrier), one device, one OS.....everyone gets an update at the same time, and phone issues are rapidly resolved. I can continue my rant, but I'll leave it as is...same issues, different day and I'm sure you've all heard the same rants of frustration.

My deleted contacts still show up when I want to send a text message

My friend upgraded his phone last night from an older version of the Samsung galaxy to the Samsung s4 galaxy. I'm an iphone user and now he can't receive any of my text messages. HELP!

So last night my boyfriend upgraded his old Samsung galaxy to the Samsung Galaxy s4. He was able to receive a few of my text messages, but then they randomly started saying "not delivered." I turned on and turned off my phone, and tried the turning off and on imessage and facetime but nothing has worked and I still can't text him. I am receiving his messages just fine, I just can't send any to him. I looked onlne at Apple Support for help but I noticed a majority of the problems were coming from people that switched from iphone to an android, but he has always had an android and I've been using the same iphone 4s the whole time. It is really bugging me, so any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

It wont let me open a text message.

Heya all,
Something that's been bugging me for a few weeks now. Sometimes when I recieve a text message on my Curve, When i want to open it, it just doesnt open... XD It doesnt do it all the time but randomly it will and it's very annoying.
Anyone can help with some suggestions?
Thanks

this literally just happened to me,
i took the battery out for 30 secs replaced and tried opening it again and it worked.
if it doesn't, go to sms menu and choose contacts name you got the message from as if you were typing them a new message. it'll open up the conversation screen and you can see it. not exactly a problem solver, but a way around it
