How do I access my recent log of text messages? I would like to delete this log.

  • Anonymous Feb 02, 2011

    I did the "delete all" yesterday and they still show in the "recent log"....I can see this log only after I compose a text and I go to add recipients and I can pick from the recent log which shows all my previous contacts I've sent to. Any other suggestions?

    I did the "delete all" yesterday and all my previous texts still show in the recent log...I can only seem to see this log after I compose a text and go to add recipients and I can pick from the recent log. It doesn't give an option to delete the recent log at that point either. Thanks for the answer you gave, any other suggestions?

    Very strange..................the only thing open to you is to set your phone back to default factory settings and start again.
    You would need to have the factory default setting code from your manual or go on the net and get it from the phones website.

    I suggest that you copy all info first down onto paper etc and you will proberly need your serial info.this info will be under your phone battery on the back of the phone not the back of the battery.

Deleting text log from a711 samsung phone

Access menu>messages>(Now from this screen you should see your Inbox, Outbox, Drafts, Saved, Etc. Check to see if you are given 'Options').

This should allow you to delete all text messages in each category. If you are not given an 'Options' feature then access your Inbox and from your Inbox use your 'Options' feature to delete all clutter.

Thanks.

How do you delete the recent contact log off a samsung sgh a737 ?

To erase the recent recipients list, you must do a master reset of the phone. This will erase all texts, alarms, and any other personal settings you set on the phone, but it will erase your recent recipients. This is the ONLY reliable method I found

Can't delete the recent messages log on the LG CU920

Go into a new text message and hit the "send to" option. Scroll down to the first name above the line and hit the "options" button. Scroll down and select "Recent messages" and choose whoever from that list that you'd like to be your top 3. I actually just sent all three of mine a blank text, but when I went back to the "send to" list voila! MORE INFO: I tried all kinds of things to remove names from my top three recipients list. What ended up working was to send a text to multiple recipients at once. Two was enough. But it was important who I selected first. I sent a message to my wife and my friend. My wife's name got added back to my top three! Then I reversed and sent a message to my friend and to my wife. His name got added back!

Deleting the recent log

thank u so much for trying to help. I guess my message wasnt clear enough though. The phone is not storing my "messages", I'm not having a problem with that, I can clear them, no problem. Its the "recent log" under the "add recipients" that does not clear. The "recent log" stores all the numbers you ever text messaged to. I want to clear the #'s that I've text messaged to, not regular calls, thats easy to clear. For some reason this phone stores all the #'s that you text to. If you can figure it out, i'll give u a million dollars!!! just joking of course.
thank u!

Need complete recent call log and more days for text message storage

The call listing only shows one caller by design, to help with clutter on the list. It's a little funky, but if you think about scrolling through pages of the same caller just to find that number to the pizza place again, it makes sense.

If you open Messaging, you can access the settings in the menu there to increase (or set to never delete) text message life.

Please let me know if you get stuck!
