well your right about the lock..had to set it up and send myself a text from my other phone.. but your right.. only solution(doesnt mean there aren't others) I can offer is use S2U2 instead.. I now that lets you pick your optionss without unlocking and if u click reply it'll go straight to it..

the safe thing was cool.. I just know it a quick dbl tap on the up arrow though.. I've never accidentally deleted all...knock on wood..

and im not advanced enough to give ya an option to physically keep the message up longer... might be an edit to do that..but that's not stuff I mess with yet..

glad I could help
