SMS/email Questions (htc home, palm threaded sms) - Mogul, XV6800 General

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

Anyone know a faster way to send sms text message

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.

6800 pic/vid messaging and phone alarm

I have a PPC6800 and Alltel has been having some issue with Pic/Vid Messaging. They got it fixed today and it all works fine.
The issue I have is:
When i get a pic/vid message i get notify via windows since PA doesnt have any options on the default settings for pic/vid messaging. Anyway, once i get the message and use the windows menu to go to my pic message to view it all works.
Now comes the tricky part. Once I go to the message, view it and close it i go back to the today screen. If i click on my email or txt message icon on PA I can not access my messaging at all, txt, email, even if i go start/messaging it doesnt work. All other features of PA work fine, I can go to VM, missed calls, I can change profiles etc. I can even go into the set up section.
I can use all other aspects of my phone but once I click on PA it locks up my messaging feature.
Now if i open the pic/vid message, view it close it as before all works. Now if I DO NOT click on the email or txt icon on PA I can continue to use messaging fuctions like normail, but the second i tap on the email or txt icon on PA it locks up my messaging functions.
I have tested this 10 times at least and can duplicate it everytime I try it. What I need to know is how to fix this or what do I need to do to get you the information to fix it in the software. It seems it is a PA software issue since when I do not tap on PA icons all works fine. Also taping on the missed call, vm does not create this issue as they remain functional throughout the freeze of messaging.
Anyone else.. can you test this and see what happens on your 6800.
Thanks
Do you mean, tapping the messaging icon in phone alarm's today plugin doesn't open the messaging window/program?

phone alarm
Correct. when i tap in the phonealarm plug in it only clicks and the same on sms icon.
Once i tap those i cant do any messaging functions until i soft reset to kill PA program totally.

SMS Question???

Why is it that when I go to a favorite contact and hit the SMS button it takes me to the windows SMS interface, but if I go to all contacts and pick one and hit the SMS button it takes me to the TouchFLO SMS interface? Pretty annoying.
Wish I had an answer, I find it really reduces the usefulness of the favorites. I've been training myself to just go to the contact page and hit the SMS tab there, I hate using the outlook interface.

Any way to get the messages "line" on the non sense home screen to go to sms

Any way to get the messages "line" on the non sense home screen to go to sms
Hi all, I decided to not use the sense home page thing and now my phone is much more like the x1 main screen which is ok as I have a few plugins (some still to install) on there and it makes for easy nav... but the message line only links me to the outlook emails rather than all the messaging services... any way I can get it to show text messaging when I "click" on it... cheers
Ok I found out that when you disable sense its called titanium... so is there any way to get the message section on the home screen to go straight to sms messaging instead of emails... actually come to think of it where is the text message option in the list of accounts in the email setting, are they not linked now as they were in the X1...?

Is there a way to see entire "long" messages in stock SMS client

Hello,
I cant believe that Galaxy S stock sms client cut of long sms messages and you have to dig deeper in the sms client to see the entire message.
Is there a way to change this behavior, so that you see the entire message in the stock sms threaded view ?
I have installed Handscent sms to solve the problem but it would be nice if the stock sms client could do the same.
And another question,
If I would like to change what starts if I press the "message icon" on the home screen from the stock sms client to Handscent sms client. Is there a way of doing that, so when I press the "message icon" Handscent sms start immediately.
Thanx for you time,
//arcspin
Dunno how handscent works, but just go to editmenu, and replace the messaging icon with the handscent icon?
edit: Applications -> menu -> Edit -> move the applications around
SWEET
I never understood that you could switch the home screen icons as well.
I'm impressed with that...not so much when they cut messages short but anyway...
Galaxy S is getting more and more pleasant to use
