    He can restore his info from iCloud if he set that up before wiping his phone. If not, he's SOL

    I would revel in the fact that the digital hoarding is gone. I know its hard to part with text messages, but really who goes back to re-read them? What for? To see what kind of typos and autocorrect mistakes you made in the past? I wish i had accidentally deleted my text messages, it would have been an easier decision that deleteing text threads that were almost 2 years old. I said to myself "You know what i have a problem" then I cleaned house. I cringed at first but now it's all better 30 minutes later I'm not freaking out lol.

    You can delete the messages from your phone but if you have backed up the phone before the message was deleted, the message will still remain in the older backup files. I still have SMS messages from my first iPhone on the first day of the iPhone launch hanging around in the backups.
    Hope this helps. Good Luck!

    Yes. If you haven't make a backup with iTunes, check your iCloud.
