So i changed from the 8125 to the wing and I have discovered it is much more difficult to send a new text message. You have to go through like 5 different commands...(open the message bar, select text message account, tap menu, scroll to new, scroll to sms) it just seems so tedious so i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to make it so i can have new message be one of my soft key choices (preferably where the delete soft key is). Its really annoying.
Thanks BP
How about when you install the HTC Home plugin, I HAD one until i bricked my phone yesterday :'( it came with the PDAVIET rom which was released some time ago.
What it does is, it shows on the Today screen a link to Email and one to SMS.
That's probably the fastest way.
Cheers
how 'bout putting the command "new sms" under a softkey ?
Or simply install the program "name" (sorry forgot the name) that puts a "New" menu at your left soft-key in the today screen, from there you can choose sms, e-mail, mms etc.. Just search for New menu
Press Contacts softkey. Scroll to the intended recipient. Tap, hold, pick "Send Text Message". Type text message. Press Send softkey.
What's the problem?
How About VIJay?
Hello,
I use VijaySMS All the time... It allows you to make a shortcut (I use SPB Today so I create the shortcuts in there) that either starts a blank SMS or start one to a specific contact. You can find the program at Vijay's webpage here: http://www.vijay555.com/
Enjoy!
You could set up the Message button to automatically go to your SMS Inbox when you press it.
Messaging Inbox > Menu > Tools > Options...
Select Text/SMS and uncheck "Display account picker when opening Messaging." This will automatically open your SMS Inbox, thus eliminating the first two steps of your problem.

hello
i have a 8125 and was hoping one of you unbelievably smart techies out there could whip something up for me or explain if it cannot be done. i was hoping to add a "Select all" option in the "Menu" just below "Delete" in my e-mail interface. basically if i have say 10 -20 e-mails i want to select rather than using the stylus and selecting all of them manually i would like to press "Menu" "Select all" then "Delete" can this be done??
any help would be greatly appreciated. also on another off topic note, when i use the "Meaasging" button at the top of the phone (the actual external hard mapped button) my phone switches to the mail accounts (i can see the name in the top menu) however there is no display the today screen is still visible where the e-mails should be. i have to close the mail and reopen it with the messaging shortcut from the start menu then all displays fine. i had a similar problem with the Pictures viewer and accidentaly came across a thread to rename 2 dll files, i did and that is now working. does anybody know how to fix this display issue with the messaging button
thanks again
hi all
i have my new trusty TyTN (SPV M3100) and well my problem is that everytime i send a Text message, it sends it twice! the exact same message twice!
i type out a 1 page text and it sends 2 ...
and i don't know what to do because its using up my credit so quickly!!
one sorta-fix is that as soon as i press the "send" button, if i go straight to the Outbox, and watch it dissappear, it seems to only send it once...and also sends it a lot quicker than minimising the messaging program
any advice? i've had a look around and can't really find anyone else with the same problem
One quick thing to check is that you do not have duplicates in your contact list. Can happen if you import contacts using sim manager.
Others have reported opposite problem I.e. it says cannot send message when in fact it has sent message!
Mike
You know - I'm having the exact same problem. I do use goodlink and are using the good contact list as well as I the sim contact list - is there anyway turn off the sim contacts?
The problem with mine is that usually I would reply to a txt message, and then when I get a response back - it sends the previous message again. It's really annoying.
Any help would be appreciated!
Oh yeah I have a Cingular 8525.
perhaps you have spb pocketplus (or a similar program that allows an application to be fully closed) and you exited the messaging program before the messages were sent. if so, place tmail.exe in the exceptions list.
ahh yes I do have SPB pocketplus.
I am new to the WM platform, could you please clarify how I can add tmail.exe in the exceptions list? where can I find this exceptions list you speak of?
Thanks!
Vinny
i believe the options will be available by clicking on the spb pocketplus icon in its today plug-in, as well as in the today settings (start > settings > personal > today > items).
Yep correct. You open your "Messaging" application. Then, you directly open SpB Pocket Plus (its either an icon on the today screen or you will find it in the Settings: System: Spb Pocket Plus". Then you click on "Close Button" and press the button "Feature Option". Select the "Exceptions" drawer and press "Add" - there you can choose "Add last used program" -> it should be tmail.exe since "Messaging" was your last application. Thats it!
I have htc home installed. I love the way palm threaded sms works, but it gets really annoying at times. is there any way to set it up so that when i hit the text button on htc home it opens JUST my sms inbox, and when i hit the email button, it opens JUST my email? right now, it opens the main messaging window, as well as the text or email window whenever i hit either of those buttons.
also, when palm threaded sms is installed, my text message inbox opens itself about every 10 minutes on its own, does anyone know how to stop this?
if not, does anyone know of another sms program? the one that comes on the mogul is really slow and ugly, i dont even care if its threaded, i just want something faster and possibly better looking than the built in one

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Load up your emai/sms ap, menu -> tools -> settings untick "display account picker"
well that solved the problem of it opening the picker, but it created another problem. now the email icon on the htc home plugin just opens text message inbox as well. is there a way to set what those buttons open? Also, is there a way to delete this "Outlook E-mail" account?
thanks for your reply isix
Pretty much as the title says, my Touch HD has a '2' in the green circle as though I have two unread messages. This is not the case, I have deleted ALL messages from my phone, there is nothing.
It started with a '1' when a message failed to send when I was roaming... I dealt with it, but now it thinks there's a second unread message. It's pretty annoying because I only know if I have a new text now if it says '3' in the green circle.
Help please.
Hi,
What ROM version are you using?
Please try and change the following Registry key value:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sms\Unread \Count and made sure its set to 0
If that does not work, try this:
1. go to 'Messaging' tab (sms texts) in Touchflo.
2. tap softkey (left) labeled 'All messages'
3. This should bring up 'Messaging' program.
4. tap softkey (right) labeled 'Menu'
5. tap option 'Go To >'
6. tap option 'Outlook E-mail'
7. Delete unread email here.
8. Close Messages and check that your email counter has adjusted.
Hopefully this works for most problems.
The registry edit fixed it!
Thank you very much.
Scratch that... when I receive a text, it jumps straight to '3' instead of '1'
I found manila take about 3 sec to mark an sms as read. you probably still have a couple ore short sms that you did not stay on for long enough.
go through them all stopping on each for 3 sec an see if it finally reads one.
This isn't the case, I have zero unread messages. I have even deleted ALL messages from my phone, all SMS and Email. It still shows as 2 unread messages, on manilla and in the windows messaging program. I did that reg edit, which removed the '2' but as soon as I get a new message, '3' pops up, it's almost as though it thinks '2' is zero.
Really need to fix this guys!

Perfect, finally fixed. Thank you very much.
For a few days I'm trying to solve one very annoying problem with my Blackstone (WM 6.1 Barebone 2.6):
After choosing for example "sent text message" in standard "Contacts" application, in phone application (I mean HTC dialer), action for chose contact is also changed form "m" (call mobile) to "txt" (send text message).
Furthermore - when trying to select this option (to send text message) no action is taking place.
Is there any way to delete the correlation between those two applications or set "call" action as selected permanently?
