Drafts will not open nor get deleted

Select messaging, scroll down, select delete messages, then select by folder, then drafts, then press each message on the screen and it will ask you if you want to delete the message, press yes - and it's gone!

This is because there are too many messages in your Text messages folder. Delete all the messages from inbox, drafts and sent messages and try again.

I had the same problem so I called AT&T and they solved the problem!!

1. Click 'Start'
2. Click 'Messaging'
3. Click 'Messages'
You should be in the screen where it shows all your text messages, not just one. If not, click the 'go back' key until you see the list of all your text messages.
4. Click 'Menu'
5. Choose 'Folders'
Your screen should be showing Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Outbox and Sent Items folders.
6. Click 'Drafts' folder
7. Click 'Menu'
8. Choose 'Delete All'
After it has finished deleting, your screen should say To create a new message, etc.....
9. Click 'Menu' again
10. Choose 'Folders' again
11. Click 'Inbox'
12. Click 'Menu'
13. Choose 'Delete All' When its finished deleting it should say 'To create a new message, etc.....'
14. Repeat steps 9-13 for the Outbox and Sent Items folders as well.
15. Once you are SURE you have deleted all your messages in all the folders, click 'Menu', choose 'Folders', and choose the 'Deleted Items' folder
16. Once in the 'Deleted Items' folder, click 'Menu' and choose 'Delete All'
Since the Propel Pro is run by Windows, it's kind of like emptying the Recycle Bin on a computer. You delete the items and they go to a 'Deleted Items' folder, where you can 'Delete All' of the deleted items. I know it sounds confusing, but that is how you can get your 'Free Storage' back.
Once you've deleted your deleted items, (LoL) you can check your 'free storage' by going to "Settings" .. "More" .. "Memory Info" and the "Storage" (middle/orange folder) should have significantly gone down! I went from 89MB to 17MB!!
I really really hope this helps! Good Luck!!
If you still have storage problems, call 1-800-331-0500 and Dial 0 for customer service then dial 1 for technical support. They should be able to help you step by step! I really hope this helped! Good Luck again!!

Your Inbox Only support 200 sms... And when I say Inbox it includes your My folder as well... So you see 197+ 26 beyond your range... Delete Data from my Folder.... Problem solved.

Two possible problems here, the new messages could be server messages, your inbox is completely full and there (unfortunately) really is no choice to but to delete either a large number of the messages in your inbox or delete all. If that doesn't work it needs to be taken into a retailer to be either repaired or trashed. Had a similar problem with the same phone and i had to delete all my inbox messages and it still showed that i had messages and they were server messages.

Hi, try this
Using the Internal Keypad 1. Open the flip and press[MENU]. 2. Press Messaging. 3. Press the Right Soft Key [Options]. l Press Erase Inbox to erase All (read and unread) Messages or Only read Messages in the Inbox. l Press Erase Sent to erase all unlocked messages stored in the Sent folder. l Press Erase Drafts to erase all unlocked messages stored in the Drafts folder. l Press Erase All to erase all messages from the Inbox, Sent, and Drafts folders (except locked messages). You can choose whether or not unread messages will be erased. 4. Select Yes to erase the messages selected. A confirmation message is displayed.

I had a similar problem when dealing with my own phone of the same type. The only permanent solution is to engage the master reset which you can find in the settings folder. A temporay solution is to go to your outbox, and you'll have a message that either has a little red x on it or just is a plain letter shape. if you try to delete this it will say one or more messages can't be deleted. make sure you change it's status to canceled, then select it choose send to drafts. make sure there are no messages in your outbox and only the one message you just moved to drafts in that folder. it still will npot allow you to delete the message. remove your battery while the phone is still on. replace reboot go to drafts and you should be able to then delete the message from drafts. if you still can't the only option i see, which is what i did, is to use the master reset

First you have to cancel it and the under the more option move it to drafts and the restart phone
