SMS: "read" - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

Hello!
First I want to thank you for your great Forum!!!
I have a question, which I hope someone can answer:
Is it possible to attach a option "read" to the Popup, which opens when a SMS arrives. I can only choose "delete", "save as unread", ...
But there is no possibility to choose READ???!
Can anyone help me to solve this Problem??
Thx a lot
Korbi

Pls Help!!!
Or is it possible that i am in the wrong section here???
Greetz Korbi

Is it really 'save as unread'?
I have Delete, Call Sender, Save as READ and Dismiss in my soft menu.
May be your ROM is different. I am using latest imate ROM

Sorry!
Of course it is "save as read"! But still you cant choose "read" either, can you?

"save as read" option is exactly the thing as the "read" option you are looking for. No reason for a read option in the popup.

I got the same problem.. You receive an sms. get the small teaser. now it would be great to click on a "read" button that opens the sms to read the whole text.
if i click on "save as read", then the sms is saved a read, but does not open. if it was a large sms, i still dont know what was the whole text...

if there is a large message i have "VIEW" option on the right hard button (on screen) so... VIEW = READ (the whole message)
Wisely, the VIEW option only shows if the message is bigger than the popup window dimensions

Yes thats right. I already knew. But sometimes I wnt to read even short SMS in a hole New Window. The Popup fades after a short time. And this is sometimes to short, to read all the information.

Heyya
Im not 100% sure what your trying to achieve, will going to "messaging" in your start menu and opening SMS help?
3rd party software might be your only solution if not.

Yeah, of course that will work. But I want to have it instantly. If I get a message, there is a Popup which shows the content. But after few seconds the popup closes and there is only a hint. When I click the hint the popup comes again and closes again after few seconds. So I want an option to READ the sms, where the whole text stays until I close. Or a option READ where Messaging opens with the SMS (same as it is with longer SMS)
Thx
Korbi
Sorry if some explanations are wrong, but I have a German XDA Neo

oh yeap now i understand, appologies.
i'll see if there is a registry change that can delay the time of the notification of SMS display. Im sure there will be one as it appears to always hold for the same period of time on the screen before minimizing.
in the mean time try handango and trial some software for a PIM mod to the SMS display.
good luck till then.

Assigng PocketCm to open from Windows Notification Popup?

Right now, I have PocketCM assignged to my right softkey in order to send my text messages. No problem. What I would like to do, is set up the program to open when you get the notification of a recieved message. Much in the same way that Flexmail opens automatically.
Not necessarily opening on its own though, but when you click the right softkey after recieving the text, the menu pops up and asks, Call Sender, Save as read, Dismiss, Delete, or Open. How do i (can I?) set it up so that selecting the Open option will open PocketCM? Would I be correct in assuming that it's a registry tweak?
If the question has been answered already, which I'm almost sure it has to have been, I apologize. A search on this has brought up topics, either not nearly related to what I am looking for, or topics so old and/or convoluted to be of any service to someone who isnt already familiar with the subject matter.
I know it's mostly irrelevant in this instance, but I'm on a Tilt running Alex's newest Ultralight. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Same Question I Asked, I Was Told It Could Not Be Done, But Id Like To See What Everyone Has To Say...
From my end I dont see it being impossible, if programs like Flexmail & Sunnysoft Contacts can do it. Hell, Opera Mini can be set as the default browser. I think it just takes more knowledge of the subject matter than we currently have, lol
well if i have pocketcm minimized it pops up when i receive a message

This is true, but I'm a memory nazi who closes everything when I'm done using them. So while your way sorta "works", I'm really hoping to get it done the other way, lol.
Edit - Typo
I would like Pocket CM to open directly to the person's theaded sms window when i receive a message. Right now Pocket CM opens, but it's impossible to tell who sent it. SO then i have to use the notification window to open the default text message program.

rubbish: if you have "show text count on" the person who sent it is at the top of the list and the text count say 1/x
although i do agree it would be nice to open at the thread and even if pocketcm wasnt active at the time
I agree with above, the way PocketCM doesn't handle new messages was a deal-breaker for me. Everytime there is a new version I install it because i really like the look and feel, but i always take it off a couple of days later due to this issue. What's the point of having threaded SMS if you have to open a slow program to view the thread each time a new message comes in?
Esp now that WM 6.1 already uses threaded SMS. My Touch Dual supports flick and scroll already, so I guess the only interesting thing in PCM for me would be the nice transitions.

Ok, am I missing something? I have a sprint mogul with wm6. When I get a text message with window notification I do not have a "Open" option when i press the right soft key. i have Call Sender, Save as Read, Reply, and Dismiss. It's annoying when I have a long message that doesn't fit in the notification. I have to dismiss it and then go into Text Messaging to read the whole text. There is suppose to be an "open" option?

Is is possible to delete a single sms in a threaded view?

When I open a sms, it opens in a threaded view with all the messages in the conversation. However, is it possible to delete a specific message in this conversation?
It is but it is annoying.
In threaded view click on the underlined part of the message, the bit with the name and time. This will take you to a screen with options to call, text etc. Press the back button and the whole message should now be highlighted blue. Now the delete option is available in the menu.
Does anyone know an easier way to do this or delete multiple messages at a time?
To select the message in question just use the up and down keys on one of the HTC keyboards....

Thank you. It worked. But sometimes I was able to select a message, so I could delete it, without taking me to the new screen. But it seemed really random, most of the times it took me to the new screen.
michi123's solution also works well. Seems to me that this SMS application isn't really made for devices with no physical buttons.

SMS read delay

Hey guys,
As I'm sure most of you are aware... the touchflo 3d interface on the Touch HD has an SMS message window... now when you receive a message, it obviously displays it. However the "new message" icon appears on the touchflo bar (at the bottom) still while you have the message up for a few seconds. This is quite irritating since it usually appears for longer than it takes for me to read it, so I have to wait for it to dissapear then tap the message to reply in order to not have a new message icon forever!
Anyone know how to change the time it takes for the new message number to dissapear? Ideally I'd like it to be instant as soon as the text is displayed! I'm talking about the little numbers over the SMS icon on the touchflo bar....
hope all that made sense!

Add to this the same issue with unread email. I hate to have to open inbox to mark the item read. Another thing, can't delete email from tf3d, but can delete sms. How to delete email without openning inbox?

There was a possible temporary solution to the email problem.
Try using "Safe" Inbox Extender
NOTE
This is only a temp solution for email and not sms until a proper solution is found
As always, you have been most helpful. Thanks Fallen Spartan! However, what would be more useful would be the ability to mark any/all email read without navigating away from tf3d email tab, i.e. without opening inbox.

This would be the perfect solution, however I haven't seen this anywhere
This is also on my list of annoyances for the email thing.
With the SMS I find it dissapears after about 3 or 4 seconds, so I just wait until I hit reply.

E-mail multi-select not working... :-(

Hi there people!!.... Wow, it's been a while since I last posted something here!!
I have just received my new (and quite beautifull) HD2.... it works just great.. but there's one tiny problem, maybe someone can help me
After downloading my mail to the device I tried to delete all the messages in one folder, but I just can delete one by one... Everytime I try to drag to select several mail the HD2 keeps scrolling up or down and I can only select one message at a time... Is there any way for doing this??? Can't believe this silly programming mistake.
If I can't do multi-selection on my e-mail then the e-mail on the HD2 is useless crap... HELP PLEASE!!!
I think there is a select message option in the menu at right bottom of the inbox screen.

That would have been the most intelligent idea for HTC... but nope... there isn't such option...
My logic tells me to go to the classic Edit menu and click Select All... but it does not exists...
Any other solution?? can't believe I'm the only one with this problem!
thanks!!!!
Open the inbox and go to Menu. You'll have to scroll down to see it, but there is a Select Messages option. You want the "Several" option in there.
You can then select multiple messages.

Yep... is was as easy as that... Thank you both for the tip!
I'm still not used to scrolling down on menus that don't have scroll bars... I think I must be missing a lot of configs because of this!!
Cheers Mates!
theres a very faint scrollbar on the white pop-up menus, a little hard to see sometimes!

HTC HD2 SMS default - any way to change it?

Does anyone know if there is a way to make HTC SMS messaging default to 'All Messages' (ie. display the list of 'Conversation mode' texts) rather than bringing up the last message when you select the SMS tab?
I'm sure I saw something about this on this forum a long whil back, but after half an hour searching tonight I can't find anything.
Can anyone help?
Cheers
anyone??

You want to show up the complete HTCMessaging directly in the Tab? That is absolutely not possible.

To clarify, what I want is that, when you select the HTC messaging icon on the tab slider at the bottom of the screen, rather than displaying the last message (incoming or outgoing) and giving an 'All Messages' soft menu item at the bottom left, I want something that displays 'All Messages' straight after selecting the HTC messaging icon.
You might be right and it may not be possible, but I live in hope.
I would love this functionality as well....nothing doing though?
You can't change the behaviour of the tab slider, but you can add the "Messages" app as a quick link... this way, when you click it on your homescreen, it takes you directly to all messages...
