How to delete all the sent messages in a faster way if you have lots of them??

[flaviopac]

My problem is the following...
I have lots of sent messages saved in my device, and I can't not save them, but after some days, they aren't usefull for me anymore....

How can I delete all them in a single step, without select all and erase them?

If you have lots of messages you have to do this procedure lots of time...

So.. Is there a way/cab/app which can delete all the sent messages automatically (in a single step)??

Thank you......

This may be a solution...
But is there anything easier and faster?

So you're looking to delete groups of messages? Is there something to this that would prevent you from just shift clicking to select them? That's what I do.

Or to delete all messages (obviously this is done from within the sms application):
Menu/Tools/Clear
Menu/Tools/Empty Deleted Items

Are options I use frequently

if you have 100 messages, you can't select all in once...
you have to select some of theme, delete them and repeat this operation again and again...
something like "select all" doesn't exist on my Touch..

go into the sent messages folder and open the on screen keyboard, press ctrl+a. ;)

/or are you just trying to delete something like half of the sent items? in that case the shift click is all I've got to offer.

MANY THANKS!!!
This is just what I was searching for!

Fast and simple....

No prob., and if you're trying to select just the oldest then you can select the top one and then press and hold the shift key and then press and hold the down arrow until you reach the bottom of the list. The upside is that this doesn't use the on screen keyboard (if you don't have a ctrl key on the physical keyboard).

You can also press and hold (with stylus or finger) on the first message in the list and slide down until all messages are selected, but i guess the quickest way is really as CRE said with the onscreen keyboard.

Infact this is the way I used to do....

Now I'll use CRE's method... FOREVER! :D

but i think if u dont want to save theme , just unstick " save the sent messages in folder "
so everytime u send a message it wont save automatic in sent folder . thats it ;)
