    This is all well and good and i already knew how to do this. but my question stands as to how to get it to remain this way. every time it is connected via usb the memory card becomes unreadable and the phone reverts to c:/ unless u manually set it at e:/ every time.

    I was wondering whats the max text messages you can store in the satio ? is it unlimited or do you have to delete it after ever 1000 texts ?

  • Paul Watson says:

    Hi,
    I do not know what is the maximum amount of texts that can be stored on the Satio, but if you save the messages to the memory card you should be able store hundreds if not thousands.

    Hehe I am literally the first reply to this awesome read.

    Well, I have a little less than 14,000 messages in folders created under “My Folders”. The inbox or outbox, each, can only store 999 at the most after which it starts removing the oldest message one at a time unless you move all to a folder inside “My Folders” before the limit is hit.

    However, I notice that the performance has gone down quite a bit after a 10,000 or so. Also, reading the messages stored in those folders is an art. It keeps running out of memory to read old archived messages. I have to copy them outside into another folder to read them. Surprisingly, the thing doesn’t scale up too well. But it still works.

    Hi,
    Was just wondering if there’s A way around this, when I get text messages about 9 or 10 messages long the bottom is cut off and I cannot read it, apart from reading it in conversations, is there a way around it?
    Thankyou x

    Hey! this is a very good information.

    Btw, does anybody know if there’s any SMS counter/log app for the Satio?

    I really need to keep track of the number of sms sent. And apparently, Satio dont have any sms log unlike their previous models.

    The closest app is an app tt serves to log msgs sent to only a particular receiver. So if anyone knows, do recommend thanks!!
