Need a SMS app!!! I can not stand the look of the OEM SMS messaging. - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Need a SMS app!!! I hate the look of the OEM SMS messaging.
Are there any options?
I have tried SMS-Chat and didn’t like that.
I’d like a good visual layout like the iphone for lg dare messaging.

I gave that a shot....The SMS thing was great..but the rest was usless....If they would just make the sms seperate and be able to launch from the message icon it would be perfect.
I like my HTC homescreen plugin and my FunCotact app and dont wanna replace that.

The links you posted above seem to work but when I click the ones in the first post the first one takes me to some odd apple page and the second one takes me to a page that cant be found. I'm not trying to be a pain I was just a bit clueless as to what you were asking for.

Im not after anything. I just figured which links he might have meant because the formatting got screwed up. Whenever there's a bunch of "....... " in the middle of a URL, it means its been truncated when he edited or posted the original msg.

Anyone can get this dialpad ??? it looks amazing...

I onno but you guys but this dialpad just looks simple, and amazing and I just can't find it and I was wondering if anyone would help me and send me the link or the file it be awsome.. here is the picture, just look at the dialpad... http://users.skynet.be/bk342433/clpdasetup.jpg
Don't remember what thread it's from, but why didn't you bother asking this question in that thread? If I'm not mistaken that pic is from the original poster. I also believe this is a phone specific dialer.

Life really doesn't work that way.
If you tape a "missing-dog" ad to a pole, plenty will see it. But it doesn't mean anybody knows where the dog is.

That is not the iPhone dialer, and by phone specific, I mean not all phones can use the same dialpad, the one you see is a stock dialer with modified graphics. Look through the threads, it's somewhere on this site, not wherever you got that pic from.

For your info... I've been looking for it for the past hour.... Champ... thanks for information..
read the rules, this is not the place to post questions.
be nice instead of posting idiotic replies like "143 views... only one reply????? cmon..".
no one here works for you.. people take their free time to answer questions here, the least you can do is post your questions in the right section.
The dialer is mine... It relies on JPL4's JPLDialer Vista II and it uses modified graphics I created for my own use. So far it exists only in portrait since I never use my phone in landscape mode.
I'm happy to share it you like it. You'll have to install the dialer above, soft-reset, copy the content of the link below to your Windows directory and soft-reset one again.

Agreed. The new beta of WAD is looking freaking phenomenal! In a nutshell, put what you want, where you want it, no scripting, xml, etc.
As a recommendation, I think you should put on a widget that displays the usual status notifications: sms, email, missed calls, voicemail, but if you could make them seperate widgets that would be even better, as some people don't use the email one, you would be able to rearrange, etc. Just a suggestion, and again, I'm looking forward to this/

[jusT IDEA] SMS with new look

sorry, my english is bad...
Inspired by iContact and some SPB Shell theme on XDA developer, i have idea to make the application to look SMS with new look (like iContact to old one). When i installed iContact i feel faster and better than default. so i like to have SMS the same way .
Unfortunaly i am not able to coding or something.. i just can make the photoshop idea of this.maybe someone can make this application to be real
this is just my "idea"

--> with wallpaper from greatball
the idea:
- group the SMS today,this week,this month, and older - can be minimize
- fewer sms per page few - maybe can faster to load
- photo contact on sms
sorry is there are an application like this before...(if u mind please give me the link) TQ
Love the idea! but Im not good at programming. but I´m looking forward if there is anyone how could do it.
i like the concept.

Boy, it's definitly time for a finger friendly sms app.
Great idea,
so...
where are the programmers?
Looks nice...
PocketCM Contacts have such an SMS output.
and the thema can be change so that it more look like above
Problem here is, that the SMS are grouped by contact and not by date.
pocketCM is a pain to skin (poorly documented, every version breaks theme compatibility, no support from author), iContact doesn't own sms

Definitely looks sweet.
I'm using this one... Not really that skinable but it wors very fast. Sorted by contact, and then like a messenger...

You can also check out ExtremeText. That's what I am currently using.
That concept looks really nice!
I tried SMS chat, and it worked fine, but I didn't like it enough to pay 15 bucks for it.
I also want to like PocketCM, but it keeps messing up...it's pretty unstable on my phone.
I really wish someone would make a nice app, I am surprised the local gurus haven't done one yet!
my thoughts too: i like vito smschat its really fast, cool, absolutly fingerfriendly and stable on my system but cost 15 $.
PocketCM is different but also fantastic, but actually i have massive problems in combination with ifonz and wm6.1 so i can´t write sms
So a good sms application for free would be welcome for me, and this in combination with EMAIL sending/writing ! (?)
I remeber there is a alpha version out here for a sms application ?

Great work, thanks!
nice idea, maybe you can identify the visitors' device ? Would be useful for devices with VGA resolution, wouldn´t it?
Great! Thanks man! Anyone using Netfront Browser or skyfire browser?

Any way that we could use our own icons?
yeah using own icons is what id like to do as well
or a way to add a link and have it recognize the pages icon automatically?
Nice idea. RocketShotz has something similar to this:

As well as hosting icons on your own site, I would encourage you to contribute icons for the default iconset. In either case, please get the template here:

I'm not sure what you mean here. Could you explain?
well like in firefox or IE at the address bar there is the symbol to the left
and in favorites it is there as well and it just finds it without any user actions you know?
I believe he means having the web app automatically grab web page icons and use them instead. Good idea, but unfortunately web page icons aren't the same dimensions.
I think this web app is a novel idea, but I find some of the icons rather ambiguous. The icons do have alternate text seen by hovering the cursor over them, but that doesn't help much when it cannot easily be seen on a Windows Mobile device, or any other mobile device for that matter. Perhaps you could allow up to ten characters of text underneath each icon.
Thank you! Thats great!

Help finding icons

I've been trying to find the DLL / EXE that holds the email list resources for a while and I've been unsuccessful. I'm looking for the envelope icons that show up when you open the email list in tmail.exe. I though they might be in outres.192.dll.. they're not. I've been searching high and low without success.
So, if anybody can find it or show me exactly where they are, I will send you $20 bucks by paypal for helping me I'm at my patience's end with these icons. lol
Here's a screenshot of what I'm after... See the little envelope icons ? That's it

I thought I had them too... but for some reason, chaging the icons in that DLL has absolutely no effect on the icons in the email app, so I think they must be hiding somewhere else.
What are u using to change them? restorator? are them original dll's or already modded? try using virgin files
Yea it has to be the bitmap in outres. I just looked through about 30 files and that's the only thing I found.
EDIT: I somewhat take that back. It looks like only the envelope for a read item is there.
