How do I delete a contact from my TEXT contact list from the Charge? It seems to have saved every person and email address I've ever searched or had contact with.
Well, i do appreciate you trying! Thanks!!!
Can you give more info because text message is suppost to undicate who you texted and recieved text from, am I missing something?
when I go to messaging and hit new message then hit contacts, I get a long list of every person I ever sent a text to or got a text from or email address i have imputted into google search or facebook.... i dont want some of these contacts in my phone and need to delete them. These contacts are NOT in my regular contact list, only under messaging. I NEED to delete them off this list. Is there a way to do this?
BTW... Rose and Mercy are the same person.... this site made me register again....
Try 1Tap Cleaner from https://market.android.com/details?id=com.a0soft.gphone.acc.free&feature=search_result
or
History Eraser from https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.infolife.eraser&feature=search_result
will these erase ALL the contacts? I only want to erase a few of them.
neither of those apps worked. Usually when you want to delete a text or contact you press and hold on it. Under messaging contacts, it does not give you this option. I MUST delete some of these contacts. Can anyone help?
no, those apps did not work. I specifically want to delete an email address from this contact list. It does not appear in my main contact list only the messaging app. this is very important that i find a way to delete this email from my phone. any other suggestions? I have searched EVERY setting on the phone and I could not find a way either.
Mercy, are you talking about the contacts that show up in the messaging application when you tap "New Message" then "Recent?" If so I could not find a way to delete these either. However, I found a way to delete them from another application on the phone. Go to Phone and tap the Call Log button. Scroll through this list and see if the number or address you want to delete is in this list also. If so, and you delete it from the call log it will disappear from the messaging recent contact list as well. Also, you can try this. I did this once by accident and it cleared that list for me. This should not delete your contacts, only the ones in the recent list in messaging. From a Home screen touch the menu hard key on the bottom left of your phone, then tap Settings, then Applications, then Manage Applications. It is probably in the Running tab, but if not just look through the All tab and find the "Messaging" app. Tap the name of the Messaging app then tap "Clear data."
no, it isn't in my recent contacts. its just in the contacts list in the messaging app. its not in my call log either as its an email address and not a phone number.
this email IS under my main contact list under groups then unassigned. UGH!!!! this smartphone is too darn smart!!!
This email address is not on my "recents" menu or in my Main Contact list. It is ONLY in my Messaging app and also in my Main Contact list when I go to GROUPS then NOT ASSIGNED. It is there too. I cannot delete this email from either list.
The apps suggested do lock the contact list and thats great, but I would rather just delete them out of my phone. I need to get this contact out of my phone. Any other suggestions?
