Chat Style SMS?

Hi!
Sorry if this is not the right sub forum. I am trying to look for a program for my trinity wm 6 that can transform our sms system to a chat style ( i.e. iphone like) I have tried pocketcm and threader program.. but they cannot replace the quickness and reliability of the native windows sms program.. can anyone point me to the right direction? thanks before...

SMS Chat Style
Hi,
I use the program shogunmark rip from a treo (I think).
Works great.

Is this any different or better than Codyppc's threaded SMS?

Search on here for IMSMS. You will be amazed what that can do.

IMSMS looks very snazzy. I may have to give that a try! Thanks for the heads up!!

codyppc's doesn't work reliably. Don't know about this one but it probably has the same problems since they were ripped from the same device and hacked to WM6.

Hmm, I had immediate issues with IMSMS and subsequently went back to Codyppc's. Perhaps I should mess around with IMSMS some more, but I really haven't had an issue with Codyppc's app.

Had problem with IMSMS...cannot receive sms at all.
wm6 threaded is better, buthas small bug. When you are typing a message, you cannot see what you are writting, because the keypad cover it up.
Where I can find Codyppc's threaded SMS?

Hi guys.. have tried all the apps above and i find that threaded is actually really good! BUT one thing that's really annoying and almost makes it unussable is that using the trinity when u write a msg in the chat window.. the line's get completely covered with the SIP and you don't know what you're writing... is there a way to hack this program? or has someone did it already? i went back using pocketcm's sms and whenever i send a msg.. have to exit out of pocketcm and back to to windows messaging for the msg to be delivered.. o you guys have the same problems with the two apps? i can't believe that our wm devices can't do iphone style sms without a glitch..

I encountered the same probelm with you bluesky3012......now I just using standard message application.
In personal, I like palm messaging so much...but as bluesky3012' said...it has bug

It isn't a "bug". That is the way it works. It wasnt designed for our phones. It is a RIP from the PALM phone and the Palm phones have a different display method than ours.

so there's no way of having a threaded sms with no glitch in our trinity? so sad.. i'm sticking to pocketcm for now but it tooks up almost 5mb of memory if i just minimize the apps..

Actually, it has lots of other bugs. So unreliable when sending and receiving.

I dont recall the text field being covered when I used my Mogul and wanted to send a quick message without using the slide out keyboard.

I only had one issue using the threaded sms app on a device it was built for (700wx) and that was with duplicate messages being sent out. A fix was released, but it wasn't directly related to the threaded sms application.
Now that it has been ported to other WM5/WM6 devices, some have encountered issues which isn't surprising considering how much hacking Palm did with the OS in the Treos.
I use the WM6 version pulled from a WM6 Treo 750 on my Mogul and I don't personally have any issues with it. I do know that others do though.

is there a palm sms threader for the sprint touch?

hey just wanted to know if there is a palm sms threader for the touch? or does the one for the titan work?

There is one, search for: shogunmark_wm6_threaded
It works great
Here is the link, to save you the search time:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319899&highlight=Threaded+SMS

yea it does work pretty good but i think thats the one i had on the titan wasnt sure if it was gonna work on the touch thanks alot bro

hey i dont know if your having this problem but it doesnt notify me when i get a text like it tells me on the screen i got one but it doesnt make any sounds... is there a fix for this?

I use ringo, and it works fine for me, the volume is up i'm assuming?

if you didn't know this already, you have to specifically set a sound for the Palm Messaging App. try Start->Settings->Sounds & Notifications->Notifications Tab, scroll and select "Messaging: New Message (Palm)" and then select the sound you want to play when a text message received via the Palm app.

I used this same app on my Wizard way back and loved it. I couldn't live without it once I tried it. Last I heard it is supposed to be compatible with ALL WM6 devices so it should work fine with the Touch.

yea it works now i had to pick a sound for it lol i feel stupid now but now the other problem is that when i bring up the touch keyboard with the t9 it doesnt show me the words i could choose from... they stay at the bottom so i have to bring the keyboard up and down all the time... is there a way to fix that?

I don't think so, I wish there was.... I use the Full Screen Keyboard, once you start sending messages, you'll get used to not seeing the words....

i hope that we can custom the Keyboard to go up an 1 inch so we can see what we doing.

Thats what i asked in another thread...a automatic resize, like what it does in pocket ie, its not a big deal to me anymore, i'm used to it...

When getting rid of this app. It takes away the orginal Text Messages. Anyway to bring them back with out backing up phone?

Sms Thread
Guys, you should do a search for pocketCM. Is is really good and do a lot more than what you are looking for.

Well I have tried that. But cant seem to get it to work corectly on my HTC VOUGE

Ny only complaint to the threaded sms is not seeing what im typing. Loved it on my mogul though

MMS..does it work????
hey guys,
ive asked this in other threads but no reply. can someone tell me if this app allows you to use mms. according to the other threads, everybody is having problems sending and receiving mms. can we use this app solely for the threaded sms part and THEN USE ppcgeeks mms app. will that solve the trick??? plz let me know. i have a sprint touch. thanks alot guys!
currently using pocketcm v.18 also. is there any incompatiblity issues if use this threaded app as well????

i was just about to ask this, i need to find a solution to this!

Touch SMS

Why the hell has no one made a touch SMS program?
I HATE the one that comes with pocket PC with a passion.

I agree with you a million percent. I've used vito sms and pocketcm but they both annoy me...slow and inconvenient (in my opinion. I know there are a lot of happy pocketcm users )
Anyway, I'd be willing to pay for a skinnable sms app if it was exactly the same as the existing one (ie: has got the same menu..sms/mms, windows live, outlook etc, but just looks a LOT nicer)...so if there's anyone out there

Honestly, i'd pay too, and i haven't paid for any of my software for years.

as much as everyone will hate me for saying it. Id love to just see icontact with there version of threaded sms. not a huge fan pocketCM for some reason. but atleast they have threaded sms

Yup, people ar going to "hate" you for it. LOL
The big plus for iContact is its speed for the basic duties of looking people up and dialling them. It is a phone in the first instance.
I have both installed and use both depending on what i am looking for.

haha! yea. me too. I even created a CM theme that looks identical to icontact. it's a genius program.

I´ve found IContact V.0.5, and I'm using since that. The must is that with only two strokes I can match a contact and make a phone call, or iniciate one SMS, this is in my opinions the basic concept, and remain like this.
If somebody want to put in one application, contacts, sms, mme, phone call, outlook, opera, netfront, picsel, wifi, gprs, and ..... they are free, but don't complain about the monster.
PCM with all those screens and options to do this and that, might real good, no complains, but too much ways to reach a simple thing, find one contact
One more thing, what's the ideia about a finger friendly SMS app. ?
Menu ? Keyboard ?

Finger friendly, maybe not - it's finger friendly already I guess, but there's a loooong way to go appearance-wise. Something like iContact but for sms (a separate app) would be perfect. That way the styles match, and if it were to have the same qualities as iContact would be fast, simple, customisable and very convenient.

The windows one isn't very finger friendly.
Something like the iPhone's SMS program.

[Cab] Leo SMS Fix for HD (new fix cab added)

Hi all,
I made a cab from the 2009-12-15 Leo SMS fix (http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=812&news_id=407), so this can be installed on other devices with Sense 2.5..
I'm on a sense 2.1 rom currently, so can't test it...So be careful, it might break ur SMS function, test with your own risk and always backup (I guess the new 2.02 package has the update already or even a better fix)..
happy new year!!

i'm not sure what it fixes... but it doesn't seem to fix the annoying slow messaging thingy... I was just coverting the .exe which can only be installed on HD2 to a cab that can be installed on every device..
I have heard that the htc messaging in the 2.02 pack is fast, anyone tried it?

what is your point in creating a thread with a cab entitled "sms fix" and you are
not sure what it does? shouldn't you have tested it first and shared to us what
exactly it can help?

no offense, but i agree with jigners... hopefully the OP has had time to test it by now!

Am I the only one in this thread that uses the actual HTC site? or do people just like to hijack threads and flame people who are doing what they can to help the community... As I remember no one else knew what the Leo Camera Fix did either, but it proved useful, at least for some.

Looks to me like HTC don't really say what the fix "fixes" but THANKS for creating the CAB, i'll have a look and see what it effects if anything. If it's worth it I'll cook it in for my next flash

Okay, have just installed the CAB.
So far no noticable difference when sending / recieving SMS.
I'm using my own custom ROM, using WinMo 6.5 28014, and most of the packages from Leo 1.48.
Thanks again for the CAB anyway.

@Jigners
When the fix first came out, I tried it but it won't install on hd. and now I learned how to create the cab, so I just made it. I need to have my phone switched on all day right now and I'm with a sense 2.1 ROM, so can't test it, but I thought someone with a lower leo build may want to try it...
yes, you are right..sorry for let you down.. I won't do it next time.
@Swarvey&PooPoo
Sorry for wasting your time... thanks for your kind words

also gonna give it a go
still on a energy rom of 23-09 whit m2.51919
will report back later
ps gonna restore over 800 messages to test it to the ultimate

well tested it and it works sort off
i can type directly but the message im replying to isnt shown
so its kinda a fix

hi,
have you tried restoring tons of messages to see if the slowness has been somehow fixed ? Last time I've tried with 2.5 the phone almost got stuck (with about 600 messages)

I sort of think the 2 posts directly above your post answers that question don't they

thanks, I could read those, but I'd like a bit more of an explanation:
you installed the fix and restored tons of sms, what I'd like to know is this:
- adding a contact with a lot of sms history to favourites slows down the phone ?
- opening such contact slows down everything ?
- I understand there is no sms history shown in the manila contact at all ? actually that point isn't very clear to me. where is that the original message is not shown ?
what I'd like to know, if you have got time to explain it to me, is what actually the fix changes, and how fast it makes opening sms history on a contact.
One last minor point is that a big sms history had most sms cut to one or two lines.
Regards
Andy

no, the sms fix is only for Leo package lower than 1.49...and the weather fix is for any sense 2.5.. I think 2.1 manila does not need any fix, both sunny animation and sms are working ok in 2.1 manila

HTC Messaging

I've just flashed the latest Energy ROM onto my phone from one that was about 6 months old. All is good apart from one thing - HTC Messaging.
Seems to be a common complaint that a lot of people don't like this, but I haven't found a solution.
In the old Energy ROM I was able to run a cab that disabled HTC Messaging, but that doesn't seem to work with this version.
Can it be disabled? Oddly, at the top of his thread NRGZ28 states that HTC messaging is turned off for speed???
Can anyone help please??

Can anyone help?

try this thread:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614

My understanding is that the Energy rom isn't using the HTC Messenger anymore. It uses a skinned version of something else.

pretty sure the skinned messaging client in the nrg roms can be disabled somewhere in messaging settings. My experience has been that htc sms client and the new skinned one are way too laggy to be used if you text more than once or twice a day. I have the notification bar on my hometab linked to wm messaging, and no lag and its lots better. Seems like the other sms clients dont index the messages efficiently or something. Its such a shame that so nice a phone is so weak in texting, not everybody is willing to go thru all the trial and error just to settle upon texting that is still imperfect. Big part of why wm is a dying os. People spend big bucks on a phone, they expect it to just work right outta the box, especially something so basic as texting.

Can you explain how you have linked to the wm messaging? This might do what I want.

this might help:
enable wm messenger (by disabling the HTC one), install those 3 .cabs:
3 cabs - first post
and also arcsoft mms:
arcsoft
soft reset

Sorry, I looked and it is the bubble text one, just with the bubbles disabled. Thats the one that I have experienced the least typing lag with out of all I've tried though. I have it linked to the notification bar by cht editor. Having it like that saves me the ram of having to use the sense messaging tab, which would cause my phone to lag and then hang whenever I sent/recieved too many texts too fast. Tried several versions of htc messaging, and they all lagged quite a bit too. It makes me mad to think all the effort n time spent just to get 'ok' texting on my phone. There should be a windows mobile version of android's handcent sms app. It has everything you could ask for as far as messaging goes, and doesnt lag or suck at all. I have had piece of crap phones that handled texting better than windows mobile. How could microsoft blow such a basic function of phones as text messaging so badly?

Try this.
Might need a little tweaking to change font sizes, and such, but I like it better than the WM messaging client. There's plenty of folks to help with the tweaks on the forum.
Also, Microsoft MyPhone works really well for managing text messages. It stores your messages online and allows easy syncing (very handy after new ROM flashes). It, also, allows you to archive older messages so they aren't stored on your phone, which makes ALL messaging apps run much faster.
Hope it helps...
