SMS Limit?

I have my SMS basically set to not delete anything. Today I went to check a text and my phone deleted every text. After restoring, I only lost 3 days worth, but I don't want it to happen again. I was probably around 5K stored at the time...so my question is, was this just a glitch or is there a limit?

in the sms settings, there is a setting when checked it will delete old messages depending on the limit set

Re: SMS Limit?

Stock, my bad. It's just a personal preference to keep them all. And no, no wipe or anything they just disappeared on their own.

Re: SMS Limit?

I didnt get a chance to use sms as much yet since most ppl still have my TP2 number...but I'm wondering where it stores those SMS...it might be that the latest sms are stored in temp partition or ram while older ones put on your main storage...that would make it possible if something cleaned the ram/tempfs :/
