Writing SMS with standard mode with one hand?

Very often I have to write an SMS with one hand, but it is impossible with Qtek 2020.
I would like to find a software where you can write an SMS with the standard mode (like on normal GSM) with standard numbers 1-9 with letters on them.
I use D9 to find the contact and I think it is very usefull.
When you find a contact and you tap the SMS button near the number it should be very appriciated to have a standard GSM input letter mode (like T9) instead of default SMS client of WM.
Do someone know if a software like this exists?
Thanks for the answer,
Urosh

GO to www.yorch.net and look under "software".

I' don't find any software I described before.
Please let me know which one do you think do what I said.
Thanks,

I apologise, I thought it was on yorches site, here is the link for you, it is a superb piece of software and it is FREE. Anybody else wants a brilliant sms program make sure you get it too.

I just found a bug in this program when running on xda2, if you push "select" button when entering phone number it gives an error, but ig you spend a little time inserting all your often used numbers you can use the drop down becuase it remebers the last 20 numbers that you have used, its worth a little time to set it up becuase it saves a lot of time in the long run.

Actually it's not working at all with my mda ii It says: message sent successfully, but later on-message not delivered Do you have any idea what I could be doing wrong? Is there a special format in which I have to put the number of receipient?

i think, only way is spb fullscreen keyboard or typeango ..

It's working fine on my XDA-II with T-Mobile ROM 1.60. The only thing is that if I am trying to send to local mobile number I have to enter the number with '+', country code etc. while I could use 'short' number with ordinary mobile phone.

Ok, that seemed to do the trick. Tnx a lot, it's working now flawlessly. But, I still have another question -how do you input "+" directly from the SMSwriter. "+" is on the same key as the "0" and whatever I do I keep getting "0". Of coarse, I could call up the keyboard but for that would again need a stlyus

Its a serious shortcoming, its a pity somebody couldnt patch on the ability to select searchwhich would bring up the contacts list, any offers from you programmers please???

unfortunately, found no way around it, I used to enter '+' with soft keyboard using a pen. The only temporary solution which comes to my mind is the list of numbers used to send SMS already (there should be some 25 numbers kept).

For me is impossible to use this software only with my fingers.
It has too small dialogue boxes (to find the contact).
For me the best solution would be to have a D9 program that integrates a SMS client which has the same keypad which is at the start of the program (with big buttons) to write to message (when the contact has just been selected).

PhonePad and Quicksearch Not on English PhonePad

I installed the English only phone pad from the ftp site and all seemed to work well, however i just went to make a call and was typeing in the name in the phone pad so it would select the names with the number in and this didnt work?
eg to phone Jon i typed in 56 and expected it to display all those names with the name Jo or 56 in the number - but no this didnt appear? Is there anyway to get this back???
Thanks in advance

also noticed that on my old phone pad if i pressed down i could list all the last calls and missed calls - this phone pad does not have this funtionality - any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
It also appears to drop calls regularily when in 3g mode - i have since disabled 3g to see if there is any improvement! I had this same problem with my wizard - however a rom upgrade fixed that! Just really dont want to go for a rom upgrade yet as i seem to read to many horror stories about the current roms!!

disabling 3g seems to have improved the dropping of calls but still unsure why the phone pad wont do the smart search as it did do it on the tmobile phone pad before i installed english phone pad!

I have now tried to select the smart dialing options however when I select it when the phonepad is activated it does not do anything!

this is getting worse now! I can't regress back to my previous dialer it just keeps the htc blue dialler but the main problem is I can't access my voicemail messages because it doesn't recognise the tones when I press the keypad! any help would be greatly appreciated!

Writing SMS through phone dial dialog

Hi everyone,
if I search for a name via the dial numbers in the phone dialog (after pressing green dial button) it works fine to dial the numbers of the persons I found. But if I press the left or right key to switch between home or phone number, mail or sms, I'm not able to create SMS or mails out of this window. On my old htc artemis with wm6 but without touchFlo it worked fine and it is much more useful than going to contacts overview because of the easy searching.
Hope you understand what I try to say
Thanks for any help, Tobi

You are right. However, once name is selected (with <m>) you can tap "Menu" - "Send Text Message" to send SMS.

Hi,
You can search your contact on the sms or email screen. At the line of the phone number, you write the first words of your contact and you have the list of your repertory.
You have only to choose at which of them you want to send an sms. I think it's easiest like this !

Thanks for both of the answers
@azahidi: I found this out yesterday, you're right thats an option, but not an advance I think, menu is too inconvenient for finger control. the greatest problem is, that if I select a contact with my finger, the phone directly calls it insteat of just selecting it and giving me further options.
@pinou13: that's great, I didn't know this yet, I think that solves my problem in a way
But nevertheless, it would be great, if one could set that if I click on the contact in the dial window, instead of directly dealing the number, showing the same overview (call cell phone, call home, write mail, write sms) from the contacts window.
If someone know a solution to do so, please post it, but so far it's an alternative to do it via sms or mail menu.
Thanks, Tobi

You can solve your problem with the Spb Mobile Shell. It is very finger-friendly to use, I am happy with it, but it has to be paid after 14 days free trial. For details: http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/pocketpc-software/mobileshell/

Hm, looks great, but that's around 10% of the phones costs. I prefer to use freeware and I rather like touchFlo, but not in that one little thing

change to change phone and message?

Hi,
I am really new to WM an Mega too.
I have big problem with calling. When I try call to someone and search phonebook, I often instead of scrolling make a call. I tap bad way somehow...
So I want ask if there is a chance to use another phone app or dialer... instead of default wm.
