In the "To" address bar, one can just click on the center button and you can choose which person to send it to, you can also do this when emailing somebody, however this does not work when you are sending MMS messages. Is there a way to fix this?
I think this is a bug. If you actually click on the "To:" text it will bring the contact list up.
Hmnn, I wonder if I'm the only one experiencing this. I'm too lazy to write the numbers down

hi im new to WM5, i used to have a nokia smart phone. i wanted to know how i can send sms messages to muliple mobile phones quickly. without having to continually going through my contact list and selcting each one, one at a time. thanks.
At the "To" line, type the name (or some letters) of the first person, select the contact from the list that appears, press enter, a ";" appears after the name, which means you can enter another contact after that.
Good luck with the Windows Mobile Experience!
re: send sms messages
thanks alot. by the way is there a way to set up a group of conacts. to speed things up.
easiest way is to set them in outlook
try o2smsplus
When I use Outlook to send a text message, I use to be able to start typing someones name in the "to" field and it would suggest peoples names. Now it stopped doing that. I know I can tap the "to" button to pull up contacts, but that means I have to take my stylus out.
Anyone know how to fix it?
Ok guys, I've searched and dont see this question or suggestion so please dont flame me.
Why is it possible to add a smiley from a new MMS message but not with SMS?
I use Smiley SMS but the smiley icons are very small.
Surely it's a registry hack to allow default compose to be MMS form.
Am I being stupid?
I think you're mixing things up.
MMS are MultiMedia Messages, which can contain large text and attachments (images, video, sound, etc).
SMS are text-only, so you can't put images in those. What SmileySMS does is probably the same thing as SMSChat: interprets the sms's you receive and replaces ": )" (for instance) with a smiley image stored in your device.
When you add a smiley to your message and send it, the other guy won't see a smiley, but ": )", unless he views it with your program too.
So, no, you can't registry-hack it to display images
?
Multimedia Messaging
Short Message Service
Actualy i dont get what your asking but the only simileys you can send via ems but i dont know if windows moblie.
other than that you can send the usual ;-) :-( :-D .
As said already, SMS & MMS are two different types of messages. Only the "smiley" you type goes through as text to the recipient, while SmileySMS recognizes it as an image for you to see.
I understand the differences.
What I was questioning is whether it be possible that the sms compose form be similar to MMS. So if you selected a smiley, it would send "" etc etc
Sony Ericsson and Samsung phones allow you to send SMS messages with animated smileys. It's a shortfall of WM that it doesnt give a better messaging experience.
Thanks for your input guys !!

Yeah, but you'll never really send the smiley, so your will be sent out as : D.
But instead of typing the text equivalent, I'd like to see the smiley and select it, therefore the abbreviation is automatically insterted into message - just as the MMS form does
Surely the Masterchefs can do a hack which can use the MMS form but sends as SMS
I don't know what type of device you have, but if it has a keyboard, then you might try Smilies Input Panel .
Keyboard for text and numbers, and SIP for smilies...
You can even edit it, make sure to scroll down to the bottom of the page to see how..

i understand what u mean, but the MMS portion sends the graphic (i think) it doesnt inerpret ; - ) and change it to
smilieysms is a plugin for sms, which intercepts the text and uses its own display model to replace ; - ) with
so im guessing, no to use MMS editor, as in both instances it will place the graphic in the text body, and also on received messages, display the received graphic, not ; - ) replaced with
phew!

Nope, the MMS just inserts ascii characters into the text portion of the MMS, try it and see for yourself.
no flaming but please ask questions in the QUESTIONS Thread.
Shouldn't there be a contact drop down in the "TO:" line when composing an SMS - I don't see one and I'm accustomed to it being there.
This also takes up the character count in the SMS field, same behavior is exhibbted in all message applications, i.e. outlook, windows live.
It seems that auto suggestion is disabled by XT9 - although turning off XT9 by turning off predictive text in settings does not correct this - thoughts?
This wouldnt help your situation. But i remember composing emails and that dam contact list would come up. It was so hard getting to the actualy subject line because if i would click down it would think im trying to select a contact on the contact list. Im happen it was dropped
When I begin typing a name in this field, I do have a drop down list of contacts...
I am not using T9.
You can still type your contact's name directly from the homescreen, and then select "sms" by rolling the trackball left-right.

i have the same problem.
When composing a new sms or email on my other wm5 ppc, typing the first few characters of a contact's name would call up a list but this just doesn't happen in my htc snap.
anyone have a solution?
When using my Imagio phone, I have discovered that if I add a Contact to my Favorites who has only ONE telephone number associated with that contact, the Favorite's text and e-mail icons below the contact picture are mismatched. In other words, if you touch the text icon under the contact photo, the screen opens as a new e-mail message with the e-mail address filled in. Conversely, if you touch the e-mail icon under the contact photo, the screen opens as a new text message with the text number filled in. Can anyone else reproduce this issue and is there a fix?
Thanks
HTC is very aware...

I had reported this with the stock ROM to HTC & Verizon; guess they didn't fix it with the update.

I just found out that MR1 IS approved by both HTC and Verizon. You can link to the update through Verizon's web site. If you download however and view the README file, it says that the update enhances the TV software. It mentions nothing else...........hmmm
