    Hi All,
    I've searched here and the web in general with no luck. Does anybody know of an SMS app that DOES NOT thread? I am not willing to go back to 4.7 just to loose that .....darned....threaded SMS but sometimes I'm tempted. I HATE it and just want back what I had. Any help would be appreciated. And if you are tempted to respond and tell me how much you *love* threaded SMS, well good for you. But please resist the urge. I want to replace it, not be persuaded to like it.....

    I do not think there is a app for that. Did you try to google your question?

    Yeah. No joy there. Did a search on here and Berryreview and Pinstack.
    I'm about to give up.....

    Have to say that I agree. I HATE the threaded SMS. I have been looking for a way to get rid of it myself. Hope you find an answer.

    Does Empower's SMS Viewer fit the bill? It's been a while since I've used it after upgrading to a BB with OS 5, so honestly I don't recall. Have you looked at it? Or is one "stuck" with threaded SMS with OS 5?

    I don't know if you can set it as the default, but you can get back to the original look through the BB Menu > View Folder > SMS Inbox/OutBox.

    I went to the webpage and dl'd the file. The latest OS they show support for is 4.7. Don't know if it'll run on 5.0.......

    You can also go into the SMS app and hit "Alt S" and get the same view. Except it's only temp and also shows all saved messages as well. I don't understand why RIM had to make it a non-option change. You would think that on something like this they would at least give you a choice. I'll keep my fingers crossed that on 6.0 they pull their head's back out of their.........

    RIM must give option what we want to see: threaded or Non threaded

    I have the torch 9800, hate threading and alt+S doesn't change it. I've noticed the SMS Inbox (only) is the "old stye" of text without chat presentation so is there a way to do 1 of three things:


    -Either make a shortcut to SMS inbox (NOT the general text message screen)
    -DL an app for the 9800 that takes you straight to your SMS inbox or
    -downgrade the torch from os 6 to os 4.6 or 4.5?


    Much thnx.
