Help Text messaging

I've been using the S2 for a few days and had a couple of problems that i need help with.

I have been sending text messages with no problems until today when 2 messages i sent brought up the message "message saved as draft" and there is the word "draft" in red next to each of the people i sent them to.

I presume they have not been sent but cannot find a way to send them. Any suggestions to get them sent would be welcome.

Also, can anyone suggest why they were saved as drafts. Have a pressed something without knowing?

Thanks
 
To send the message saved as draft, long press on that message and then hit Resend.

They were saved as drafts because either you may be out of network coverage at the time of sending the message or you didn't hit the send button properly and hit the back button.
 
Thanks for that. I've held my finger on the message and got a "foward" button but not a Resend.

I've forwarded it to those people and then deleted the original message but the message "draft" still appears in red next to their names
 
maybe there's some other message too that hasn't been sent and is saved as a draft.
Look for that message, it will be in a different colored box in the timeline and will show "Draft" written where date&time of the message are shown.
 
You hit the enter button in the message box and left a blank space. Toucwiz considers a space in the same way as it considers text. (In other words it thinks you wanted to send a message but you didn't finish.)

Simply go back into the message, tap on the message area, hit the back key a few times. Then exit out of messaging. Should no longer be listed as a draft.
