Newbie TP2 user needs some assistance

[seannap]

Hello all,

I just received my Sprint TP2 about 2 weeks ago and while I love the phone there are a few issues with texting that are kinda bugging me.

Firstly, is there any way to stop the screen from turning on after receiving a text message? I don't like using the screen lock and if the phone is in my pocket when a message is received it causes me to hit all kinds of wacky buttons and it aggravates me.

Second, is there any reason why messages sent from me are time stamped, while incoming messages are not?

Lastly, I often times notice that when I send a text message out the phone counts the sent message as a new message. Is there a fix for this?

Thank you for your assistance in advance!

P.S. I did a search of the forums for about 20 minutes and apologize if these issues have been addressed in a previous thread.
