Insert Items Grayed Out - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hi guys,
I have XDA II with wm6.1 by c_shekhar. I have a problem, when i go to send a new message (or reply), I click on the menu button and the Insert Item field is greyed out. Does anyone know how to fix this? I would like to insert contacts in the sms..

why not click add recipent
or simply click on the to: label that adds too

I've got no problem with that. but I want to insert contacts in the text area, for example.. I want send sms to my friend telling him my father's mobile number etc.
oh yea, the 'add recipient' also greyed out when I click in the text area..
is this a bug?

I have had the same problem on my XDA II
but when i got the next SMS it went
i even did a soft reset.
Now my wife's phone is a Nokia 3330 and she has the same problem
Just do a soft-reset to get rid of the stuck "sms sent" notification.
This happens when you have SPB Pocket Plus installed and set to close applications when you click on the 'x' symbol. If you close the inbox app before the "sms sent" notification goes away, then the notification icon (envelope) gets stuck.
You have two choices:
a) Remove SPB Pocket Plus or set it so that it does not close apps when you click on the 'x' symbol, or;
b) Wait for the "sms sent" notification to disappear before closing the inbox app.
Possible fix...
Hi,
I'm using an XDA 1 but should be the same fix for you luck XDA2 people...
Start -> Settings -> System -> Pocket Plus.
Highlight Feature "Close Button" then click "Feature Options".
Click on "Programs to Minimize".
Add "inbox" to the list and hopefully that will fix your problems... (it did for me anyway!)
Enjoy!
Follow-up...
Just to follow-up....
I think my solution is intermittent!
Try also adding "poutlook.exe" and "tmail.exe" to the "programs to minimise" button.
Of what I have read, "tmail.exe" is the one you want. But put the others in as a pre-caution.
If this still plays about then the only thing to do (unless anyone else knows what programs the Inbox runs) is what rene_canlas quite rightly says with regard to switching off the close button feature on Pocket Plus.
The only other thing to try is going to the Pocket Plus web site and asking the question: http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/pocketplus/support.html?en
Go to the bottom of the page and ask.
Right,
Think I can help all of you! (maybe!)
Lets see if I've got this straight....
A text comes in and you get a wee white envelope icon in the top border with a "comment" box displaying the text message for a few seconds. If you do nothing with the comment box - or miss it (it only displays for a short while) and read the text through the "inbox" program the envelope icon on the today screen won't go away until you click on it and delete the text.
Pain, but it's because there are 2 routes to read messages which don't really talk to each other.
Hope this helps

TyTN Text Message sending problem!!

hi all
i have my new trusty TyTN (SPV M3100) and well my problem is that everytime i send a Text message, it sends it twice! the exact same message twice!
i type out a 1 page text and it sends 2 ...
and i don't know what to do because its using up my credit so quickly!!
one sorta-fix is that as soon as i press the "send" button, if i go straight to the Outbox, and watch it dissappear, it seems to only send it once...and also sends it a lot quicker than minimising the messaging program
any advice? i've had a look around and can't really find anyone else with the same problem
One quick thing to check is that you do not have duplicates in your contact list. Can happen if you import contacts using sim manager.
Others have reported opposite problem I.e. it says cannot send message when in fact it has sent message!
Mike
You know - I'm having the exact same problem. I do use goodlink and are using the good contact list as well as I the sim contact list - is there anyway turn off the sim contacts?
The problem with mine is that usually I would reply to a txt message, and then when I get a response back - it sends the previous message again. It's really annoying.
Any help would be appreciated!
Oh yeah I have a Cingular 8525.
perhaps you have spb pocketplus (or a similar program that allows an application to be fully closed) and you exited the messaging program before the messages were sent. if so, place tmail.exe in the exceptions list.
ahh yes I do have SPB pocketplus.
I am new to the WM platform, could you please clarify how I can add tmail.exe in the exceptions list? where can I find this exceptions list you speak of?
Thanks!
Vinny
i believe the options will be available by clicking on the spb pocketplus icon in its today plug-in, as well as in the today settings (start > settings > personal > today > items).
Yep correct. You open your "Messaging" application. Then, you directly open SpB Pocket Plus (its either an icon on the today screen or you will find it in the Settings: System: Spb Pocket Plus". Then you click on "Close Button" and press the button "Feature Option". Select the "Exceptions" drawer and press "Add" - there you can choose "Add last used program" -> it should be tmail.exe since "Messaging" was your last application. Thats it!

Contacts List Question

Can you easily switch between Sim Contacts and Phone Contacts?
Can you select where you want a new contact's details saving, either phone or sim?
I am currently using the contact list on my phone and not sim and notice next to each contact there are arrows like this (< >) Any ideas why please?
Thanks in advance

All contact are stored in the phone. If you want to store on the SIM, you can go to the SIM-manager in the contacts menu.
The arrows show which is the default method of contact. You can switch type by pressing left or right with the joystick.

When I press the arrow keys the word txt shows...
Allowing you to send a "txt" to that person.

Save new contact from Msg Inbox

When a new text msg comes to ur msg inbox folder from an unknown number which is not there in ur contacts list and now i want to store that number. How to do as there is no option to store the new number.
Go to "start", "settings", "personal", "phone", "advanced"......tic box new phone number......
Not 100% sure it does the job when receiving an SMS....and phone number must be visible ofcourse.....not hidden
This is helpful when u get a call from unknown number and you can save it, but it will not work out when u get a sms from unknown number
Tap on the Number from the message view and it shows you the option - Save to Contacts.
Its still not working
When i tap on the msg in msg view i am not getting "Save to Contacts" options
I am getting options like "Delete" "Reply" "Reply to all" "Forward" "Move"
I am using HTC Touch 2 phone.
I use the same phone, Ganesh and I am able to do it.
When you open the msg to read - It shows you the heading on the top line -
Conversation with XXXXX.
The next line reads -
XXXXX (TIME): actual msg displays here.
Now if you click on the second line which shows you the number & time; that will take you to the options of saving address: (in this case the number)
1. Send Email from Outlook
2. Search Address Book
3. Save to Contacts
On clicking the Save to Contacts, it takes you to another screen to add as a new contact or update existing contact.
I am getting it now
I was tapping and holding it for a while so i didnt get the "Save to contacts" options
I just need to tap once and i am getting "Save to Contacts" options
Thanks a lot dude
Glad to be of help.
