Help with deleting recent contacts

[emrmcrn]

Anyone know how to delete recent contacts in messaging? I am able to delete all call logs, messages, recently called, etc... without difficulty. But when you go to messages - new message - recent contacts, they are all still there. I have downloaded, and deleted, several apps that were not able to clear the list. Would rather not root my phone to be able to do something that should be so simple. Thanks.

If you long press on the message, you should be presented with an option to delete.

Just tried the long hold and it works with the messages, but doesn't take the sender, (or who msg was sent to, whichever the case), out of "recent". But thanks for trying anyway.

emrmcrn, did you ever figure this out???

No, never did figure it out. Any help appreciated. Also trying to figure out if there is a way to have the new msg notification repeat every so often. Some times I may have had a msg for several hours and happen to check my phone and find it. Thanks.
