threaded sms fix for wm6.0

for those too scared to flash to 6.1 (or have other reasons not to), here is a very intriguing method of getting the palm threaded sms to work quite well, not covering up the input area.
good luck.

and ppcgeeks has been up again for a while. just make sure to...get there right? idk. its working strange. once you get to the site, just make sure to click on the "forum" link at the top, or the "ppcgeeks" link at the left, and you should be redirected to the new/working site

Man thanks! was going to get rid of this thing, but now im loving it more by the day....

Threaded sms is nice, but if you don't get notified of them what's the point??
The palm threaded sms app ( i used codyppc's) is ok, but the notifications on my vogue at least, are so buggy that it's not practical. Using HTC theme, with HTC Home (sms counter) and half of the time it doesn't increment. S2U2 also doesnt' recognize new SMS when this threaded app is installed.

what apps do you have installed? what rom are you running?
the sms counter can mess up sometimes, but it has been my experience to work about 90% of the time.

Just have the stock ROM that came with the Sprint Touch.
my notifications start out working, then quit, then sometimes come back. I can't figure out any rhyme or reason - new message or new conversation don't seem to matter - i have done a hard reset and only installed the palm threaded sms app - doesnt' matter. I love it when it works, but...
Apps include:
- MS Live Search
- AC S2U2 .99
- Arcsoft MMS (still have hope)
- the MusicID app
- MemMaid
- Google Maps
- YouTube fix
- Full Screen Keyboard
- Sprite backup
- teh duttythroy Vista battery bar
- Opera 8.65

I use treo alert. And it works fine, for the sms issue. u can set it up like you want it....

does treo alert allow you to configure the sms counter in the HTC Home today screen plugin? I assume it probably doesn't but hoping it does. i'm looking at this, http://discussion.treocentral.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=15006&d=1180917118, and it's hard to tell.

I dont think it do's. are you running the palm threaded sms hack>?

yes, running codyppcs threaded sms app - the one with the SMS softkey if that matters. love it when it notifies, but can't figure out why sometimes it doesn't. i have tried combinations of closing out of the app, having a totally different app open, putting the touch to sleep/hibernate, but it's never consistent.

I am having issues with the dragstlye sip hack. It seems to cutoff off the bottom row of keys and the majority of the second row with the standard sip keyboard. It also cuts off some of each of my other entry methods. has anyone figured out a fix for this?

completely agree, think a lot of people would

I believe this has been discussed and it is too integrated into the ROM to be extracted.

use vito's threaded sms software

Hi,
i use VITO's SMS-Chat since 2 Days :
it works like the threaded SMS from PocketCM.
Beautiful and easy.
One Issue : With Resco Kayboard, the SIP is moving

This is palm threaded sms. I tried vitos today but I don't like the design
6.1 SMS on 6.0 would be nice.

I suggest using the PALM threaded SMS app..

I have to ask the obvious, Why not just upgrade from 6.0 to 6.1? It is much more stable, for me at least, than 6.0.
No offense intended. To each his/her own.

Because some of us can't upgrade to 6.1 there is no 6.1 for my phone at the moment, for example.

I have a TOUCH CRUISE
- VITO SMS, doesnt work with the Touch Keyboard, the keyboard only rights numbers.
- When using the PALM THREAD SMS keyboard, the keyboard stays over the text of the message, wich is really bad to use
- There is no 6.1 for the TOUCH CRUISE right ?
Any other ideas

VITO SMS-Chat vs Threaded SMS WM 6.1
Hi
Now that Vito has a promotion to celebrate their 7th year anniversary (SMS Chat at US$7 only), I was tempted to get it. But since WM 6.1 is coming soon... I was also wondering whether it's worth the money.
Has anyone tried both and can he/she shared the differences/similarities? What's the benefit (if any) of getting SMS-Chat?

I haven't tried other options except the Dutty 6.1 release and after experiencing the problems I had I had to revert to OEM. I installed SMS-Chat and for $7 I think its great. I am still on trial but plan to purchase. So far it has worked without issues for me. Threaded SMS nice layout. I suggest trying it before buying and make a judgement for yourself.

Hi
Thanks for the feedback. Personally, I would like to have it integrated into the default SMS application, so that it won't take up extra ROM and RAM.
But like you said, maybe I will give it a try. Before that, can you tell me whether SMS Chat is an application that needs to be launched all the time in order to access it or will it operate in the background, taking over the default Inbox, until you deactivate it?

It works in the background. I did a soft reset of my device to test it without previously launching the application and I had my wife send me a text and it automatically came through sms-chat. I like this apart from other modifications because I don't have to mess with the registry. I have full control by uninstalling it if I ever don't want the application. If you do try it let us know your thoughts.

I'm not sure whether I want to pay for something which will be made available to us free of charge eventually when WM 6.1 is out. That's why I am still contemplating about it.

Best PIM/ Contact/ Phone Software for Xperia X1

Hi all,
Thought I'd share this with all the X1 fans!
Firstly I am not affiliated to Inesoft in any way.
I tested Inesoft software for the Xperia X1:
http://www.inesoft.com/eng/index.php?in=phone.html
Works beautifully on landscape and portrait. Also replace the "Phone" software. I've been looking for a great Phone app for years, and I must admit that this is really brilliant!
Try it out!
Kind regards,

Definitely is... i have been using since a while now and performance is superb!

+1 for the Inesoft Phone 4 It's fantastic, worth the money!
I tried different full screen caller id softwares for the X1 like Photocontacts, S2U2, etc but Inesoft is the fastest and feature richest so far. Ringtone sound level is fluctuating but I think this will be fixed in the future (or is this not Inesoft's fault?).

What is Inesoft Phone doing better than Photocontacts? Whats the caller ID photoresolution for Inesoft Phone?

Haven't tried Photocontacts, so can't say about that... but Inesoft is better than anything else that i have tried. Most of them are too slow or buggy to use while others don't look good or have little to offer.
Looking at the screenshots of Photocontacts... i have to say that Inesoft is a winner of it as well - by looks alone.

Nope... no problems at my end. What version are you using? the latest release (4.4) resolves a couple of bugs/issues with the software.

Photocontacts is mostly for caller id and imho with a very standard and poor interface. Inesoft's GUI is a lot nicer (support real skins too) and it can handle (edit) contacts, has favorites view, nice dialer with customizable T9 search (v4.4) that searches in all name field of the contact details, nice call history with sms preview, phone profiles, customizable ringtones per contact or category and so on. Read the features on their page and try it

After reading some of these recommendations I think I will try Inesoft, but I gather its not free.
The best of the free iv come across so far is PocketCM 0.27 with the Modiefied Black Diamond II skin, which was modified for the Touch HD, fanstatic smooth scroll, fits in well with Touch 3D.

Most of this photo contacts does too. If it has high resolution caller photos it would try it though..

Some people said Inesoft phone cannot work together with spb mobile shell.
Is it true ? has anyone installed both softwares in X1?

hey i downloaded the trial for inesoft and i have a few questions for you full version people.
When i hit the call button the inesoft dialpad appears with my last call. i start dialing and when i actually hit the call button to make the call the default windows dialpad replaces the inesoft one. is that how the full version is?
Also, when i hit the call button to check voicemail the inesoft dialpad shows up as expected, but as i press and hold 1 there is no further action. how do you guys check your voicemail with the inesoft full version?

Yes that's how it's supposed to be. Inesoft are supposed to be adding there own dialpad in the next release. The problem they are having at the moment (so they say on their forum) is the 3G video calls. So we'll have to wait and see...
Not sure about the voicemail issue, not had a voicemail since I had it installed to try!

Inesoft with Spb Shell
I know someone asked before whether the Inesoft Contacts buggers up Spb Shell... I can say that it does from experience... I did like the Inesoft setup but it only worked once i had called using the spb shell... then it just stayed after i had finished....
does anyone know of a work around for this? or is there a better software round that will work with spb shell ... the contacts there is good just the caller id is rubbish (as its the standard one for X1)
thanks...

Finger Friendly Friend
I personally prefer FFF. Fastest way to find yr contact.

[app] resco contact manager

Work better then yota or phonex
Contact Manager | February 4, 2009 Pocket PC
Beta Released
Built on the experience and success of Resco File Explorer, developers at Resco decided to create an application which makes managing contacts a quick, efficient and pleasant experience.
Resco would like to announce that the new application will contain the following features:
Touch-optimized interface
Easy navigation
Chat-like ordering of text messages
Letter navigation
Favorites
Quick search using keypad
Direct calls
History of calls
Easy assigning of pictures to contacts
Managing contacts in groups
Today plugin – quick access to all your commonly used phone functions
..and many more
http://resco.net/downloads/pocketpc/contactmanager/en/RContactMan_beta.exe

This looks very nice.
The only problem i see and for me it's the overruling off the keypad.
Thanx.

Looks Good and works fine... But there is just English Letters to search Contacts...

it's the first beta release guys ...upgrades will come soon, and specially also because it is nearly the Mobile World Congress

For a first release I am very impressed.
It definitely outdoes Yota contacts and any other contact program.
Not to mention it actually includes it's own shortcuts to the various tabs!!! Definitely a HUGE plus for me!

Maybe works betters, but is awesome ugly xD
Yota looks better

Not yet possible, but I posted a request on their forum for this, and other features. They say they will work on it.
Anyone interested should go to their forum and voice your support for adding these features. Resco seems to be listening.

Looks veeeery equal to PocketCM, which is my favorite app for more than a year.
Better donate therefore, as to buy such an obvious clone......
Just my 2cents

Iphone-like contact list and/or text threading?

Are there cabs that let your contact list appear like the Iphone contact list? I've always liked the way that looked, to be honest. Also, the same graphic as the SMS threads, too.
Thanks!

For Contactlist take a look at www.pocketcm.com

What about good SMS replacements? Preferably one that integrates well with Sense? The WM default SMS program is incredibly slow and is pretty ugly in the conversation view. Vito SMS-Chat is decent but doesn't integrate with Sense and does not run in WVGA (everything is upscaled, looks pretty bad)

How about look for icontacts?
