@dsquelchy The S8 runs on an older version of Android which does not have the Recycle bin option. Once they have been deleted, they cannot be restored. The only way to restore them would be if you have backed this data up anywhere.

Hi @dsquelchy in the modern versions the Recycle bin keeps deleted messages for 30 days, unfortunately not the case with your Device as @AaronAJ  has explained.  it is advisable to back messages up in case of issues and even more important on your Device.

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

I have found that if I delete all of my text messages, they repopulate. This MAY work for you.
