Back in the days of Blackberries and normal cell phones it was possible to see if and when a text message was delivered. I know my thunderbolt can do this if I set it in the SMS options but is it possible to do it without putting the notification in the status bar every time? Is there some way to mod it maybe?

not with the stock HTC messaging app. i downloaded Go SMS pro which i think is better than sense messaging and does what you say..
Handcent does as well.

Having a slight problem here with my new captivate (came from an iPhone 4 and happy btw )
When someone sends me a text, and I reply... sometimes my 'bubble' will go above theirs and during a fast texting conversation I can send many texts that will go above all of my friends, causing it to be very hard to read. This happens with a bunch of people that text me. All people involved are on AT&T network, all getting automatic time from smartphones.
Any way to force texts to go in the order your device receives/sends them rather than by a time stamp?
Thanks folks
I've installed handcent and set it as my default in launcherpro.... BUT now I get double notifications (one handcent, one original) up top and only the handcent one clears when I view the message

Disable notifications in the settings for the Messaging app that came with the phone.
I am hoping someone can tell me what is causing this notification. I get two different notifications every time I get a sms/mms message and I actually have to click clear to remove one of them. the other one goes away when i press it. I need to get rid of the one with the yellow arrow, I am pretty sure it is an app doing this but i cant figure out which one and its driving me crazy heh. Thank you.
Do you have handcent or chomp, etc. You gotta turn off stock notifications if you are using one of those.
do you have another sms app installed? like handcent sms? in the application settings there will be an option to display notifications, or just uninstall it.
there is also a setting in the default sms app that has an option to show or not to show a notification icon, but since it seems like your using the default one you want to keep it on..
I dont think I have any sms apps installed, although I have been sick the past week and playing with my phone while on pain killers so its possible but I dont think so. I want to keep the default sms notification not the other.
edit: I for sure do not have chomp or handcent installed.
never mind guys.. I found out its a side effect of beautiful widgets part 2. uninstalled it and its gone.
Is there any possibility to switch off sms report notification only but leave information about receiving sms in message thread?
I want to have information if my sms was received, but I don't want notification for each sms. It's really annoying.
I also want keep my stock app.
Any solutions?
sorry for my english
I assume you're using a Sense-based ROM - and that you're on about delivery reports showing up in the status bar?
The HTC messaging app is the only app that I know of that insists on putting delivery reports in the status bar, and I agree, it's really annoying. I also think that it isn't possible to silence the notification - if you have delivery reports turned on, you will get a notification for every successfully received message.
I appreciate from your post that you want to keep your stock messaging app, but unfortunately, I can't see any other way than using a Market alternative.
You could always try pulling the default messaging app from an AOSP build on the development forum and replacing it with that. The delivery reports with other messaging apps are quite subtle, and you get small notifications that fade in saying 'Message received by xxxxx.' that fade out again - much less intrusive.

Unfortunately as far as your phone is concerned an SMS is an SMS regardless if its a real incoming message for you or an SMS report notification.
Your phone reacts in the same way.
HTC sense is just basically plain stupid. Talking about Android = Customization.. What a joke.
I am using Nexus rom Build 2 Rev 12, and also installed the AOSP look for the sms and other misc items. Now what I am curious about is the same before and after installing the AOSP mod. What is happening is when I recieve a txt message I hear the notification so I know I have a message but it doesn't give me a visual indicator that I have a new txt message. So if I was in the other room and came back to my phone and just looked at it I would have no idea I missed a txt message unless I actually go and look. On the leaked ICS or stock as you will it would put a number on the message icon but now it doesn't have that. Is this something that would have been removed in this specific rom or is it a bug? Is there something I can do to get it back or do I just need to switch roms? I am on call on the weekends for work and I have to be able to know if I receive txt messages so this is kinda a big deal for me.
Thanks

Worst case get Apex Pro launcher and enable SMS unread count. I use it anyways cause its just a nice feature
I guess I am missing the SMS unread count setting, where is it at in the Apex Pro Launcher settings?

Apex Settings -> Advanced
Missed Call Count, Unread SMS Count, Unread Gmail Count
Edit: Missed call count you need to upgrade to the beta version, which has been perfectly stable for me, which you can upgrade to under About Apex Launcher Pro
yea I didn't have the beta so I didn't have the options but now I do thanks for the heads up.
I have been using SMS Popup since the original G1, but they said with the switch over to Hangouts on the Nexus 5, there are some bugs that they are unable to work out. Is there a different app you guys are using that's working without any issues? I just want the message to popup and the ability to quick reply to it.

This isn't *exactly* what you're looking for, but check out DynamicNotifications. It makes it so when you get an email, or text, it shows message details on your lock screen and you can swipe to unlock and it'll go straight to the message. Hopefully it'll fill in the gap, as I've replaced SMS Popup with it since my Galaxy Nexus.....
I'll think about it, but at the moment, I don't have a lock screen enabled.

I second this, pure stock android messaging, extremely customizable, has popup that can be toggled, toggle it to turn on your screen, change MMS size, app icon, has status bar "Read" "Reply" options, best sms app I could ask for on this device.
