is there a way to make a link to messeging and to open a form to write a new sms ??? the softkeys has an option there, but i would like to have a IE button to open me an sms form...
anyone ?
There's a tmail.exe command line that I can't remember, I've written it on the board before.
VJPhoneTools (I think, can't remember the name) or VJSMSSender will help start an SMS. But if you're comfortable with command lines, just use tmail.

thanx...
we could make a web page for this special small apps somewhere.... i can do that if there are people who could support me with them and also for hacks and stuff ??
if anyone else is interested
here is the link :

I think I'll also link back to my own apps because they're a bit more versatile
http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJPhoneTools
VJDialer is used the same as the old version,
eg: "\Program Files\vijay555\VJDialer.exe" 07812 1234567
will dial 07812 1234567
VJSMS is also used the same as the old version,
eg: "\Program Files\vijay555\VJSMS.exe" "12345" -body "I want to give you money!"
will start an SMS to recipient 12345 with text already in the SMS.
Remove the -body switch if you don't need to start with text.
VJEmail is a new tool, but predicatbly does the same as VJSMS but starts an email.
It assumes that you have already set up a POP3 email account on your PDA .
Syntax: VJEmail [-body TEXT]
eg: "\Program Files\vijay555\VJEmail.exe" "[email protected]" -body "I want to give you money!"
VJSMS and VJEmail can be used to start blank SMS and Emails by just using command line ""
eg VJSMS ""
VJSMSSender provides new functionality, sending an SMS from the command line, with optional notification.
VJSMSSender Class 0 used to send Class 0 SMS.

Thought I'd throw this one in incase I'd missed something.
There appears to be some basic failings in the ability to cut and paste phone numbers between various applications on the WM phone.
Take the example that I receive a SMS text message from someone not in my contacts database.
I know who the person is and I want to create a new contact entry using the received phone number.
There appears to be no way of cutting or copying the phone number from the messaging section and pasteing it into a new Contact.
Or it may be that I already have an entry for the person I just don't have their mobile number number in the contact record (or what ever new number is received).
Have I missed a trick here - or indeed is this a limitation that exists. If there is a work around I'd love to know. i just have such an appauling memory for numbers that I couldn't even remember between flicking between applications - let alone the scope for error.
Thanks
Re: Annoyance with WM5 behaviour related to number cut and p
Open the message (instead of just reading it from the list or notification window). You'll note that the From: field is already selected.
Press the Menu softkey, then Save to Contacts.
Simple as that
OK so that allows you to create a new contact. Once you have them in contacts you can do a copy of the number and paste it into an original record. Then delete the new contact just created. Ideally I'd like to miss out the intermediate step of creating another new contact - for those where I know I already have a contact entry, but just not with that particular number.
I agree with you.
There should be an extra choice after save to contact.
Like new contact/ add to contact.
The same with email. If i want to add an emailadres it makes a new contact.
An other problem i find is that copy/ paste is not always available when i select a text.
When I rename a file in file explorer I can't select the word and copy/paste by "tap and hold".
Now i use GSPocket Magic to copy/ paste
You would have thought that on the, what is it, 3rd iteration of WM they could have sorted this out.
It is behaviour like this that can make all the diference between something that is really user friendly and something which is torturous.
Hopefully there are some influential people who read this that can feed it back to the powers that be.
You can try PQz fot copy/Paste : http://www.nicque.com/PQz/
This there too : http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33343
open up the message, where is says the from tap and drag on the screen to highlight the number then tap and hold on the highlighted but then when the menu opens click copy
I've read & searched through this forum and the upgrading one. I didn't a post anywhere telling me the .lnk for adding a contact. The reason I'm asking for this is because I'm using larna's iContac http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303045 & the iPhone App by Grumps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302739 Using iContac, there isn't an option to add a contact, so I would like to add a buttong to Grumps' program that would take me directly to the add a contact menu...Thanks for help in advance and I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong section...also, it would be a big help if someone could tell me how to figure this out on my own for future programs...it should be able to be done something like this
SMS & Mail
SMS list view: 20#"\Windows\tmail.exe"-service "SMS"
New SMS: 20#"\Windows\tmail.exe"-service "SMS" -to "" -body ""
which allows you to go directly to creating a new SMS

Creating a link to a contact (or phone number)
I have a similar question to Maknificent's.
I am also using the iphone skin (with iContacts) on my wm6 wing. I have changed one of the default icons to a picture of my wife with a phone in the corner.
My question is... What is the text needed to link the picture to launching a phone number?
I know how to edit the Config.txt. Right now it is '\Windows\My5App.exe'. How do I change that line to dial my wife's number?
I have looked. If I missed a post that has already solved this I am truly sorry for reposting.
Robert
I was looking around the config.txt file of iPhone and noticed that this is the shortcut the start the phone:
\Windows\cprog.exe
Is there an extension that can be added to launch the phone and dial the number like:
\Windows\cprog.exe :555-555-1212
or
\Windows\cprog.exe (555-555-1212)
Hey
hello,
i think this command will call 7017775555.....
20#"\Windows\cprog.exe"-url tel: 7017775555
-noel
My goal is this: I have an external database with (company-) contacts as a SQLCE database. Since there are over 1000+ contacts in that database, I don't like the idea to 'load' all of them in my outlook. So when there's an incoming call I check if it is an outlook contact, if not I like to search the external database (by phone number) and create a contact 'on the fly' (NOT to be stored in poutlook!)
I 'detect' a new incoming call like this:
private SystemState _phoneIncomingCall = new SystemState(SystemProperty.PhoneIncomingCall);
_phoneIncomingCall.Changed += OnPhoneIncomingCallChanged;
This works like a charm. In the OnPhoneIncomingCallChanged method I check if the (new SystemState(SystemProperty.PhoneIncomingCallerContact)).CurrentValue is null. This too is working Now I would like to 'alter' the PhoneIncomingCallerContact with a contact I lookup in the other database using the incoming number. I imagine I should create a new contact and 'rethrow' the PhoneIncomingCallerContact.
The "OnPhoneIncomingCallerContact" function in the dialer should be triggered and the 'altered' contact information displayed.
Key question: can I create a SystemState(SystemProperty.PhoneIncomingCallerContact) "State and Notifications Broker" message?
And off course if so: how to do it in C#?
Another approach might be to 'unhook' the default phone application, get the incoming call and 'hook' the phone application back when I decide to take the call or reject the call?
Again: Is it possible and how to do it in C#?
Your help is appreciated...

Thanks for sharing.
i had been using iconsoft phonex 2.02 for sometime and really missed htc messaging...I hate default windows clint and also1 that comes with this soft...when i saw faqs on the official URL i saw this...

How can I change the standard SMS and Email application for a different one? (for advanced users only)
Support for launching different (third-party) SMS and Email applications has been added [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\ Iconsoft\ PhonEx\ Options]:
SMSClientApp – path to SMS application
SMSClientParam – launch parameters (%s is the phone number)
EmailClientApp – path to Email application
EmailClientParam – launch parameters (%s is the email address)
Example for tmail.exe (MSOutlook .exe file):
SMSClientApp : \Windows\tmail.exe
SMSClientParam: -service "SMS" -to %s
EmailClientApp: \Windows\tmail.exe
EmailClientParam : mailto:%s
For other SMS and Email applications, please request the launch parameters from their developers.
i am a noob..can some1 please give me parameters for htc sms/email application..would greatly appriciate it
I'm working on a location based app that would request the phone to send its GPS location. My question is, what are the available methods for requesting the location from the device? My first choice was HTTPD but the device IP is unreachable from the world (sprint). My second choice is SMS and have the phone intercept the messages. If it sees a location request SMS then it would respond to a web service with its current location.
Is this a reliable method?

Looks like MS My Phone uses SMS to request phone data... interesting.
Location request:
SkY!AVEjDy2DGyMCE6RO0qhs56aR1/zf42OXBlbdErz6sVTLW6iHFk+wQUhRX6aSEDkI0w==
Ring request:
SkY!AZbZmdMB6eVOig9Y5Ol6QtCQZAVU8XFZLi19k95Cqzn14CZ+qKuUi+2ha3VFqbRdXA==
Lock request: pin 1234, text Chris
SkY!AYDmzGeCMrT8NeDWmn5QaK96Jvsv0mQZIqEgwzvwE35ZCuBZea4M349kMwBkjVV63Y0ROvV+okapsl7UnzqcJBU=
You would think that MS would filter these texts out of the sync process...
The Ring request worked and GPS location failed (btw, the GpsSample from the SDK does not work either). So no MS I don't want to pay 4.99$ for your non-working premium services.
Sky Command Received | Command Locate (ID 2) | Request Id 22815
Sky Command Received | Command Ring (ID 1) | Request Id 22816
I wish the app was .NET like bing so I can reflect on it.
\Application Data\Microsoft\My Phone\Config.dat contains some service end point info. I would like to get the WSDL of those.
I'm curious about HKLM\init\Myphone\OEMOverride = 1.
This is great MS, due to your SMS interceptor I can't send myself any SMSs that start with 'SkY!'.
I tried resending the above SkY requests to my phone. The only thing that happened was the phone backlight came on (the SMS was not visible) and \Application Data\Microsoft\My Phone\MyPhoneLog.txt got an entry appended but the request was not valid. keep in mind that I had to uninstall the MyPhone app and use the MyPhone web site to send out those SMSs so that they would not get intercepted by MyPhoneService.dll.
I stopped the SBB0: service but the SMS still got intercepted. I didn't stop the Notification though: NamedEvents\MyPhoneRuntimeStartRuntime (if that's the right notification).
I guess the next step would be to write a .NET SMS interceptor to see if it will intercept the SMSs or not.
it looks like the interception is done using MAPI Rules which I assume is processed before MessageInterceptor and it looks like the SMS cannot be replayed...
