If you mean on the messages up that store messages on your phone and not on a server like Facebook's messenger does, then yes it does save space but it's such a small amount that it really doesn't matter, you can delete like 50 messages to save enough space for 2 medium quality pictures, get a SD card and expand your storage or buy a phone with a large ROOM meaning it's internal storage is big, i recently got the Honor 8x, cost about 200$ and it's pretty much the same as owning a 800$+ phone, i recommend that, i hope i helped, good day.

SOURCE: Delete old messages text & voice?

When first turned on, select "messages." then down arrow to inbox or outbox. Select choice. For outbox, down arrow to SENT. Select. Hit the center button. scroll down twice to delete the one message. Scroll down once more to delete ALL messages from the sent outbox. Confirm and out they go!

Now, does anybody know how to email text messages so they can be saved?

You could use a master reset code. But make sure you save all your things like photos/music onto a memory card and your contacts onto your sim otherwise you may lose them. The code is *2767*3855#

To delete old text messages from your Android phone, the easy way is using Android data manager. After you link your Android phone to pc via usb cable or wifi, Android data manager will scan out all data on it, including the old text messages.

How do I delete phone messages

There are 3 ways you can resort to remove messages. You can choose a simple way to do that. The first method as to how to erase messages from iPhone I am talking about here is by making use of iPhone's system Settings app.
Follow these simple steps to erase messages from iPhone at once.
1. Click on "Settings" on the iPhone's homepage > Scroll down to "Messages" and click it.

2. Under "Messages" panel, scroll down to "Message History" and click on "Keep Messages" beneath to enter a new panel where you can see three options: 30 Days, 1 Year, and Forever. If you select 30 Days, messages older than 30 days will be deleted. Message older than one year will be deleted once 1 Year is selected while nothing will be deleted if Forever is chosen. The quickest way to erase messages from iPhone is to select all older than 30 days, or all messages older than a year.

3. Confirm that you want to completely erase text messages from iPhone by clicking the "Delete" button. This won't erase all messages, but it will substantially save you storage space.

4. I selected to Keep Messages for just 30 days, and reduced the storage space taken up by Messages to just 112MB! If you are running out of storage or iCloud space on your iPhone or iPad, give this a try. It is really a good way to erase messages from iPhone.

Is there a way to retrive deleted text messages or call long from the motorola milestone?

When messages, contacts, photos etc are deleted from a handset or simcard, although deleted all they actually do is free the memory to be listed as useable space, and untill something else is listed over that space your old data is still retrieveable.

You can buy sim card scanners to pull off deleted data and extract to you PC, there is also a number of software available to extract deleted data text messaged etc onto your PC from phone memory.

My LG AX300 freezes up, mostly when texting. How can I resolve this? Alltel won't help because I got it with a prepaid plan for my daughter.

Basically either as a result of low memory space for processing or currupt firmware. In the case of Memory space, you can improve the memory space by deleting unecessary files, applications, games and/or old text/picture messages to create processing memory spaces. Otherwise, have the phone flashed with a new firmware (save your contacts before applying this option)

Messages deleted when phone is turned off

You must have cleared photos and videos. however, many people do not realize that an accidental audio recording can use up all the disc space. So check for extra large audio files.
