how to add sms to the new button

Is there anyway to add SMS to the menu of items listed under New on the Today page?
Ashby

Does anyone know what the write new sms application is called.
With this info I can add "new SMS" to the home page using a launch app.

i never solved it. The sms application is part of the phone dialer and I could not find a way of calling it directly.
I have got used to pressing green, then tools, send sms
Unfortantly the UI of the XDA II still needs a lot of development before the UI get efficent.

The today new items are actually referenced from the Registry here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Extensions\NewMenu
So, if someone who actually has SMS in their Today screen New menu could take a look at this location through a registry editor and post the Key and details we may be able to get this to work.

I wonder if this is the reference you guys are looking for:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Extensions\NewMenu\{1D210285-ABE7-11d2-8442-0000F87A584A}
Create a new String Value called 'Default' with the value 'Message' (minus the quotes, of course )
I don't know if this is OS Version / Hardware specific, but here is what I'm using:
HARDWARE: i-mate
ROM Version: 1.52.00WWE
Radio Version: 1.06.01
ExtROM version: 1.52.83
HTH.

I usually go for "NEW E-Mail Message", then change the Service from ActiveSync to SMS.
Sometimes it is arleady set to SMS without having to change it. I think this happens if the last message I sent was an SMS, or if I have just received an SMS. I haven't really looked into when it happens.

'Messaging' Today Screen Item Gone. How to reinstall?

Hi,
I was reinstalling everything on my mini. At the very last step, I installed the trial of MySMSMessages by JGUI. I didn't like it so I uninstalled it.
Now, the default 'Messaging' Today screen Item -- the one which shows you if you have new Text Messages or MMS Messages or emails on your Today Screen -- is gone. Other default Today screen items remain like Tasks, Schedules, etc.
It's not in Settings/Today/Items. Short of doing another clean wipe of my mini just to get the thing on again, is there a way I can just install it? Download it? Fix it? I read somewhere that Today Screen Items are just dll's.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Try it
Have you looked at your registry?
Our friend sandmik have a similiar problem with you,
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Messaging"]
"DLL"="tmailutl.dll"
"Flags"=dword:00000000
"Options"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000000
"Order"=dword:00000001
"Type"=dword:00000004
"Selectability"=dword:00000002
He said that reg responbility for message item

Re: Try it
So I'll use any reg editor for ppc, install it, look for 'regedit4'? Then make sure the parameters match the ones that you have just posted?
Am I on track so far?

Where have messenger sound settings gone ?

Does anyone know where the sound settings have gone for MSN Messenger on the XDA Exec. They used to be in sounds and notifications on the older OS's.

It isnt available in WM2005. Incredible

Not in the usual place anyway. I have also had a search around the registry but i could not find anything obvious.

Just Incase anyone is interested dmr54 over at Tekguru found the answer on a blog at

Here are the registry keys you’ll need to add to your device:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65E-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000008
@="Messenger: Contact Online"
"Wave"="notify"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65F-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000008
@="Messenger: New Message"
"Wave"="notify"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
After adding these you can go to the Sound and Notifications control panel and customize the notification behavior.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I just created a txt file with the above 2 blocks in it and renamed it to messenger.reg then ran it on the Exec. Now i can set the notifications from the usual place.
Worked fine for me but you attempt at your own risk.

I supposedly did this (its all I've done this morning) but:
a) I can't see the entries in the reg file
b) my data connections no longer work
Dunno how to back out the changes if I can't find them!

Thanks Dingo - works fine for me.

Somehow it wiped the password and username settings for the T Mobile 3G / GPRS connection, as well as the password on my exhange server connection... very strange!

I used this code in a text file renamed to messenger.reg
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65E-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000008
"Wave"="Notify"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
@="Messenger: Contact Online"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65F-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000008
"Wave"="Notify"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
@="Messenger: New Message"
file imports, i see no keys appear in registry

well it took long enough using resco to edit registry, but it works. thank frek, now i have have msn on in the background and not get pestered every 5 seconds.

Contact online & message notification
just import this registry file,message notification and contact online notification will b solved
cheers

thats what i did in the first place, it was just never showing up in the registry. i then tried adding the key and it said it already existed, then is was visible, but empty, so i manually added the rest and it works fine.

Very strange indeed. The 2 entries are added to the ControlPanel\Notifications section of the registry so should not in anyway affect data connection.
It would be wise for other T Mobile users to take note though just incase. Also if you could post success/failure results it would help to determine what the problem may be.
Also i did not note in my post above that after changing the registry switch your phone off and then soft reset for the settings to take effect.

My Prophet sends SMS twice

rom version : 2.13.9.23 WWE
Radio version : 1_02.20.21
protocol ver : 4.1.13.9
extRom : 2.13.9.123
my prophet sends text messages twice , could anyone help me to solve this problem?

Did you even search?
Usualy it's caused by a program like PocketPlus.
You can prevent sending one SMS multiple times to add tmail.exe to the exception list in PocketPlus

Yes, I am using pocketplus
I cant find the exception list in pocket plus,I am still searching.
Would you help a little?
Thanks.

Thank you,
I found exception list and add tmail.exe to the list

[WM6.1] How disable SMS Threading

Hello friends, I'm writing you about a trouble in xplod's WM6.1 rom. (but I think all WM6.1 works like that in this thing).
SMS Threaded: an IM style chat but for "Text SMS" (like: FROM Tina: "Hello" - FROM You: "Hello to you" - FROM Tina: "How r u?" - FROM You: "fine thx"). Well, great...but...
I've backupped my old SMS (3600 SMS) and upgraded to WM6.1..all works fine.
So I've decided to restore my SMS's Backup...15min and all SMS must be in the Mobile Database.
I've opened Outlook in my new WM6.1 and after 30min of "some unknown work" the PPC is free to use...but....BUT? I've got just about 30 SMS in my list!! OMG!
After some minutes I've got understood that all SMS are "grouped" by "sender".
Nice thing but I need to disable that funcion: sometimes I like to read VERY OLD SMS but while they are grouped I cannot reach easylly OLDEST SMS becouse in the first screen I've got just RECENT SMS and a "link" called "Older"....click on "Older" displays some other SMS...another click displays another screen with other older SMS...in that way I need 2 years to reach bottom of the Database!!!
Someone can help me plz?
