IPhone 3GS text messages not showing in message list?

I have a question related to text messages on my iPhone (fully updated software).
I checked my phone at about 5:19 today and i had 2 text message notifications on my screen, i entered the messaging application and they were right at the top of my message list. I made a call and then after i finished i went back into my message application and saw that there was another text message that was sent at 4:58 in the middle of the 2 messages that were at the top of the list, but i never got a notification badge for it.

Can texts sit in my iPhone memory but not show up in the message list for some time or not at all?

Please make sure your Push Notifications are enabled by going to the Settings icon from the home screen on your device and select Notifications

  • Will my message be delivered if sent as text message on iphone? My friend said that she was having phone problems earlier today. My message was being sent as an imessage, but I guess she wasn't receiving everyone of them, just getting the notifications that they were sent to her but she couldn't read them. I then responded to her, but it was sent as a text message this time and i have gotten no response. I'm not as much concerned about her responding or not, I just want to know if she will receive the message.

  • How to stop text messages showing up on the lock screen for individual contacts? I know how to stop previews of messages showing up and also how to stop messages showing up on the lock screen altogether on an iPhone 4S but I was just wondering if its possible to keep messages showing up on the lock screen but stop it for individual contacts so that when they text it does not show up?
