Reg
Hi,
Is ther not just a registry edit available?
Searched roudn the site but its all software.
Thx

Big D: no there isn't. It's not done through the registry AFAIK.
V
For specific contacts, edit the contact, and press on the down arrow in the name field. Put both the surname and forname in the "first" category.
That is an "ok" way around this at best. However I think all of us prefer to have the First and Last separated for outlook purposes.
Thanks for the advice too guys
Can anyone WM5 confirm that FileAsFL.arm.CAB v 1.0 doesn't work on WM5? I've used it for months on WM2003 and would be qutie surprised if it doesn't. I can have a look at the source if it doesn't I guess.
V
you may edit your contacts in outlook and then sync with your pda it works
FileAsFL.CAB does work in WM5...I Use it on my Wizard. I think a device reset is necessary before it appears in the menu of the messaging application.
CIAO!

Hello,
I know that Windows Mobile 2003 (even 2002) don't let you choose the way contact are show.
And It's allways Last Name, First Name.
Is there Any Registry Trick to sort Contact by First Name Last Name ?
I know other application will do the trick, but I would like to stick to Original Windows Mobile.
Can you help if possible ?
Look in this thread at the bottom of the first page.

Extra, Super, Great
this is what I was looking for
thanks man
thanks for that, been looking for something to do that for a while, sick of manually going through each contact in outlook and editing them.
the link is not working but I found this registry key for WM5:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Ident]
“Desc”= (Description or Long Name)
“Name”=(Name ActiveSync uses)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\contact\cproghook]
*Contact Sort Order
“FL”-> Set 0 if LastName then FirstName, 1 if FirstName then LastName
Is there similar key for 6.5?
Please, can someone got to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113
and post the default value string for me???
goodlink has overwritten mine and i hate using goodlink contacts...
thanks...
Sorry my T-Mobile MDA only has a "112" string under "Keys". there is no "113" the default value for 112 is "Calendar"
brunoflipper: the softkeys can be configured manually or with various hacking apps. What app do you want it to launch? Contacts?

thanks for the response...
i have tried every hacking app i can find but i am stuck...
i've tried to hack the reg but can't make it work...
my dilemma is that i have to use goodlink email for work, but goodlink installs its own "goodlink contacts" and then takes over the contact button/softkey... i hate using goodlink contacts and want to go back to using the default outlook contacts... the goodlink developer is rude and ignorant, they will not help me around using there contacts...
i can still get to outlook contacts via start menu on today screen but i want my button back... even tweaks2k2 won't work as it wants to be directed to a .dll or .exe and can't work from the .lnk shortcut...
please help
thanks
Sorry, I don't seem to have a virgin registry:
Looking at a registry backup, these are the only entries:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112]
"Open"="\\windows\\calendar.lnk"
@="Agenda"
However, looking at the emulator, there are no entries at all for keys, so make a backup and delete the whole subkey to see if it resorts to default. Otherwise, just set up your own entries to whatever you want using the above format.
V
those are for calendar... do you have the reg keys for contacts?
GoodLink
brunoflipper - agree with you regarding Goodlink rep - I too am using it. Think I may remove it. A reg hack be great to remap the keys.
Search around for "SoftKeyApplet" on this forum. It's a .cpl file you have to put in \Windows.
After that go the Control Panel --> System, press softkey and here you go....assign the apps you wanted to your softkey(s)!
hi, anybody hav softwr to send sms to multiple recepients or groups or can u guide me where to get it.----for imate jam.

Hi guys! Hope eveyone had a pleasant new year's celebration.
Anyway, I was hoping that somebody could either post the link or the file of the modified 02 SMS Plus that will run on any WM5 device. I have a WM5 device but unfortunately isn't from 02 and would love to have its functionality.
I have searched this forum for HOURS and cannot seem to find it.
Cheers in advance!
O2sms woks well onWM5 devices!

What a shame, using xda 2s for year then u alighten me, now i know..... thanks!
Does anyone know of a quick way to select multiple SMS/MMS recipients (instead of having to insert each contact individually) under Windows Mobile 2003 for Smartphones (2nd edition)? I’m fairly certain this can’t be done through the OS itself and so I’m assuming some third-party software will be required (this is fine).
Symbian Series 60 implements this perfectly. When composing an SMS/MMS it presents your contact list and allows you to check off those whom you want to receive the message. Then, after you’ve chosen those recipients, it walks you through all of them and if a contact has more than one number it presents you with those numbers and lets you choose which to use. The entire process is very fluid and you get the sense that there isn’t a more efficient way to go about it. Indeed, I couldn’t come up with a faster method (though the ability to specify a “default” message number would obviate the need to choose which number to use).

Hi!
I've made a small application that sends SMS messages to the Outlook groups. I can make a new version where you can choose what ever contacts you want...I'll keep you posted....

Can you please test this and give me some feedback on how it works.........? I've only tested it on a HTC Artemis.

How do you add a group?
Google for mcc Mass message
I'm using the build in "Categories" in Outlook.
Open a Contact and edit it.
Browse down to the "Categories"
Create a new Category.
Øystein
Works great! I've tested it on a HTC Artemis.
Works great on Qtek S200. Thanks.

Works very well on Universal (o2 exec). Will it be possible to have a scroll bar in the contact list. Presently it scrolls only with the down key not a major issue though.
On my Artemis I've got a horisontal scrollbar at the bottom. On WM 5.0 Pocket PC's you can also use the left\right arrow keys. You can also browse the contacts with the keyboard keys...
Try downloading the nevest version, I believe I fixed the scrollbar issue in v1.3.

Thanks a lot. Please keep up the good work!
Great little app! Now I can notify my complete mailing list with text messages as well
I have threaded SMS application. Would there be a conflict if I installed this program??
Thanks
Ammar
Never tried the "threaded SMS" application so I don't know the answer to your question...
All GroupSMS does is to start the buildt in messaging application and set multiple receivers in the "To" field.
Øystein
Just installed and looks good. One question.... Any way you can add a counter on the number of recipients selected?
Thanks for a great util!
on my new HD2 there is something strange: if I want to add a new contact or edit an old one I can do it, but some fields have disappeared!
For example: name, middle name, family name...all these fields gone: I only have one field "NAME"
Same for address details: before (WM 6.1) I could edit and input into fields like ZIP, City, Address...now there is a unique field called "Word Address"
It is NO MORE fine-divided into its fields
What am I missing?
Please suggest
Saulo866
I have tried to remedy by installing Pocket Informant 9...but it is so sloooow..sometimes freeze my whole device. So it is not a viable solution.
Thanks and waiting.
is this issue related to WM 6.5.3? Or just to HD2 devices?
Thanks
Saulo
use "start - contacts" to access the windows contacts list instead of the htc contacts and you will find all the fields as you remember them.
thanks Samuel
That is what I usually do...but still I cannot see the fields.
Would you be so kind to post a snapshot, so I can understand what I am doing wrong?
Additianlly my ROM is a barebone one, by freyberry, with almost no HTC application on it (almost basic Microsoft)
Thanks
Saulo
in the name field, look at the very right hand side there is a very small grey square, tap there and the complete name box opens.
oh and the field below name works the same.(you can see the two grey buttons in the image )
Dear Samuel
Now I understand: if I click on start outlook contacts the HTC version of contacts is triggered! not the MS version!
How can I do? Is there a registry hack?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Saulo
By the way, Samuel, what is that Keyboard that you are now using? It look nice.
Is it a good replacement to the standard keyboard? Does it have the ctrl-C (copy) function?
Thanks
Saulo
No more ideas?
Thanks and waiting
Saulo
hi. keyboard is swype. I like it, takes a little while to get used to but very nice when you do.
im afraid I can't really help with how to start contacts, im using a custom rom and when i click start I see an icon called contacts, and I click that and it gives me the widows contacts.
see the image, top right, the link i use.
