I have a blackberry 8520 bbm, just got it yesterday, one of them is that i don't have the option to not sort the conversations(i can only sort them alphabetically or by activity, not by seniority(oldest conversation)), the other issue that i don't like is the fact that the space of the conversation is too little, a conversation can only put up with so much text before it starts deleting itself from the beginning, but the text i can write without it deleting itself seems to be much less than on the curve. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I think you'll find it doesnt delete itself, just moves up beyond what you can see.

I'm not aware of any limitations on the overall size of the conversation that can be saved. If your BB is deleting parts of the conversation it may be due to low free memory in your BB.

The bb is new, it has 2gb of memory and i haven't downloaded anything into it

It's all about the free internal memory. Go to Options > Status and look at free memory. Get below 12 MB or so and call logs, calendar entries, and text messages can start to disappear.
