Bottom line - I have no use for threading or grouping, or whatever it's called. Is this even possible anymore?

I just need to get text messages, view them, and be able to reply. That too much to ask...

I was hoping Handcent could be toned down to do this, but it seems it's not configurable enough...

Ideas anyone?

Thanks,
Jim

First see if you have this installed:
Go to Settings->System and look for "Text Messaging". If you have it then you can change back to classic mode.

Otherwise there is a registry tweak:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM
"SMSInboxThreadingDisabled"=dword:1

Figured the Android phones used roughly the same system and software.

Android is a completely different beast. Best to ask here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=194
