Text messages sent right align

[atkjhi]

All the text messages I send are right aligning is that normal? Never seen any text messaging app do this. How do I get them to left align like normal typing should.

Are you sure it isn't just how it displays on your texting app? The convention is that what you text is on the right side of the screen, with right justification, and what you receive is on the left side, with left justification. Whomever receives your texts should see it on the left side of their screen with left justification.

That's correct. That's how I see it, I have no idea how someone else sees it. I just don't recall my old phone aligning text that way.

What was your old phone?

My old was a Droid Incredible 2.

The Droid Incredible aligned all messages on the left, regardless of sender or receiver, so I assume the Incredible 2 did that as well. Here's a video of texting in action with the original Incredible:
