[Q] A "Find" function for text messages? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So earlier today, I was looking for an old text message from a friend, and it literally took me an hour to scroll through all the texts messages. I remember in WM6 that you could just type whatever you wanted to find while you were in the inbox, and it would filter out everything else.
Does anybody know if there is anything like this on WP7?

-bump.
Nobody has any idea?

Sms not working?

Hi all...
I was wondering if people more experienced could help me with a strange problem.
I can't seem to send or receive sms'es. When I send an sms, nothing happens, and the message just sits there in the "Outbox".
When I send an sms to myself (from another phone), the phone WAKES UP, but no message shows up. So obviously the phone is receiving the message but it's not showing up? Maybe it's being blocked somewhere?
I've checked my settings, sms is set to send via GSM and the service center number is correct.
Also to confirm - I've tried hard-reset and the phone received sms'es fine.
But as soon as I reload my backup, it no longer receives/shows the sms'es being received. So something is block the sms from showing up. What program/setting would it be?
After installing slick, palringo, taptapsms, incoming sms not stored
I noticed the day after installing IM client, named slick, palringo and opening tapsms, i cant see my incoming sms after it comes..
it shows the notification 1 message unread, after i open it, i just see the history of sms of the same sender got bold, but only with old message, theres no new sms.. ( cant find the new received sms )
I've reset the phone, unplug the battery, its still the same..
anyone have a clue ?
I used WM 6.1 on my XDA IIs
Thanks.

Can't receive Pic Messages on FUZE w/ T-mobile

I have a Fuze that's been unlocked to work for t-mobile. I've been getting help from you guys/gals on here (thanks a lot), but I need a few more tips.
1. I can't seem to RECEIVE picture messages from people (also, I think that I'm getting in my "inbox" any message that I sent outgoing??). Is there a setting I need to adjust, or is it a ROM issue? any other software that I can use to change/update my text messaging management?
2. I don't know if I have a regular or cooked ROM, and I don't know what version I have, do you know where to find this info out?
I'm not very technical, but I'm trying to learn.. please explain very plainly if you can...
Thanks.
I am on tmobile also with an unlocked fuze and get picture messages just fine. Can you explain more as to what is happening? do you get regular text messages? and is it only picture messages that you dont receive can you receive voice text messages?
[on a side note] I'm not sure what has been done to my phone since I bought it used. it looks as thought the att bloaware has been uninstalled, and I also have a Tab in setting that says "xbmod manilla fro xda dev, TouchFLO 3D 2.0 3737395.3" whether or not that might affect anything. [end side note]
I DO get text messages, and I've never been sent a voice text (I'll have to test this). the weird thing about my messages is that they show up on the main TF3d screen, however they don't seem to be anywhere in the folders
When I tried to test getting an MMS message with a pic added, I had my sister send me 2 messages. one with only text (just saying "hi") and another with only a photo added. They both show up on my main MESSAGES TF3d tab, and the MMS message says "Click to view MMS", however when I click on the message it takes me to menue with my conversations with my sister and there is NO SIGN of the MMS message, only the one that says "hi".
Thanks for the response.. I really want to figure this out.
BUMP
Somebody please help me fix this problem I have ROM At0mAng V5.4, and I just need to configure/setup my phone to work on t-mobile. If you know how to do this or have any idea please help

Show time of old text messages

Hi, just wondering if there is a way to get the time and date to show when reading old threaded text messages. The time shows for newer messages of that same day, while older messages only show the date. Any suggestions? Thanks!
BTT...I am in search of a solution to this as well. I occasionally need to go back and see what time I sent or received a text, and it is frustrating to see nothing but the date on older texts.
Does anyone have a solution to this?

Text messages appear out of order

Hey guys,
I hope this super noob question doesn't annoy you guys! But i just flashed my samsung captivate and put cognition 4.3 on it. Everything works fine except text messages are organized by sender and not by time sent. Like all the texts from one person show up on top of all the texts i send which show up on the bottom. I tried looking in setting but could find anything and I searched the forum but couldn't find anything. Maybe i didn't look hard enough but regardless any suggestions?

Problem with inbox messages

hey,
Since a few days im having problems with my messages inbox.
Because when you send a message to a contact you can see what messages you have send before right ? so it looks kinda like a conversation and you can scroll back to the first message you have ever send.
Now im having a problem because when i send or recieve a message it doesnt show.
I do get a notification that someone had send me a message but i cant find it and/or read it. because when i go to that conversation it just shows that the last message was send yesterday and i can read those without a problem it just doesnt show new messages.
I have deleted all my messages and then it works again for the first 5 or 6 messages but then again if i get a message i cant find it in my inbox and it looks like i never got a text.
I've looked into the options and couldnt find anything strange so i was wondering if someone else had problems with this ?
People do recieve my messages though so thats not a problem i just cant read the ones they send to me so it almost looks like my phone only saves a certain amount of messages and after that it will not save my messages anymore.
sorry for my bad english
have you tried another messaging app like handcent from the market it is free and also a good messaging app there is also go sms for free so maybe try theser and see what happens??
