[jusT IDEA] SMS with new look - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

sorry, my english is bad...
Inspired by iContact and some SPB Shell theme on XDA developer, i have idea to make the application to look SMS with new look (like iContact to old one). When i installed iContact i feel faster and better than default. so i like to have SMS the same way .
Unfortunaly i am not able to coding or something.. i just can make the photoshop idea of this.maybe someone can make this application to be real
this is just my "idea"

--> with wallpaper from greatball
the idea:
- group the SMS today,this week,this month, and older - can be minimize
- fewer sms per page few - maybe can faster to load
- photo contact on sms
sorry is there are an application like this before...(if u mind please give me the link) TQ

Love the idea! but Im not good at programming. but I´m looking forward if there is anyone how could do it.

i like the concept.

Boy, it's definitly time for a finger friendly sms app.
Great idea,
so...
where are the programmers?

Looks nice...

PocketCM Contacts have such an SMS output.
and the thema can be change so that it more look like above
Problem here is, that the SMS are grouped by contact and not by date.

pocketCM is a pain to skin (poorly documented, every version breaks theme compatibility, no support from author), iContact doesn't own sms

I would like to know programing too..

I love the idea!!

can the real programmer please stand up..

good idea.
a new challenge for programmer.
can't wait.

i'm wait this idea i like...

Definitely looks sweet.

I'm using this one... Not really that skinable but it wors very fast. Sorted by contact, and then like a messenger...

i'll try it...

You can also check out ExtremeText. That's what I am currently using.

That concept looks really nice!
I tried SMS chat, and it worked fine, but I didn't like it enough to pay 15 bucks for it.
I also want to like PocketCM, but it keeps messing up...it's pretty unstable on my phone.
I really wish someone would make a nice app, I am surprised the local gurus haven't done one yet!

my thoughts too: i like vito smschat its really fast, cool, absolutly fingerfriendly and stable on my system but cost 15 $.
PocketCM is different but also fantastic, but actually i have massive problems in combination with ifonz and wm6.1 so i can´t write sms
So a good sms application for free would be welcome for me, and this in combination with EMAIL sending/writing ! (?)
I remeber there is a alpha version out here for a sms application ?

really cool..is this thing reals??
Nope, fake
Hense why I'm asking if anyone can develop it because I have very, very little programming experience
Looks good, gotta be threaded!
I agree. Maybe instead of 'From' and 'Message' there could be contact names that you press to get to a threaded view of messages. Either way, I just wanted to put a design idea on the table.
woah what a nice design then I think this think really exist..oh great if there is a programmer who want to create it
I've added an idea for threaded SMS. Can anyone help make this into a program?
Since you are GREAT in Graphics and stuff...why dont you make a Skin for Pocket CM like this
can u send me the files..i mean the background..the buttons and all the stuff..maybe i will try something
Nice idea.... It looks very cool.....
I've sent ather90 the graphics, so now we can just hope lol

i guess its the new 3.5 framework needed ^^
just tried it, looks like a pretty sweet start. hope it turns into a full program.
Yeah sorry i Forgot to tell
it needs .NETCF 3.5
woah Ather will it work for VGA?
It would be lovely if this could be created implementing own MMS/SMS handlers by using
FormFactoryEx.. so this could be embedded directly to tmail...
I know the messageview and the compose form can be created in this way(check the sdk samples), but i'm not sure if you can create the list of messages custom.. i know you can override the basic icons/bitmaps used to describe read/attachment and so on.. but i'm not sure about the generic window..

Install a softkey app that will change those..
this looks exactly like PocketCM, but costs $20. Why would anyone use this?
Cause FunContact has more Options! Language Support and so on...
Also it'll be linked to other Programs from VITO...For example you open funcontact and open a contact...there is a sms button..when you press it, VITO sms-chat is starting!
And Pocket CM doesn't support Korean language.
I like this skin for the history where is says which type of call it is outgoing, incoming or missed on the right side not left.

This is an old review but i prefer that skin.
I would also like to see some custom skins for this appy. Preferably one that does not have that annoyingly long splash screen when the app launches and is maybe more vista or diamond styled.

Dude:
1. It may LOOK like PocketCM, but it's more stable (on my phone anyway).
2. If people want to fork out $20 (or in my case, $40, since I bought the suite), it's our friggin' business.
Next time, don't waste other people's time reading a lame posting in a thread that has nothing to do with what you're talking about. Epic fail on your part.

Noticed your using a wizard. could you give us an idea of memory and cpu usage?
its just something I saw, and wanted to make something like it for windows mobile devices. Sorry that i have a life outside of pocket pc smartphones=/.

I have 20.78MB running it, and the average cpu load is at a constant 35-36%, the instant cpu load is at 43%.
Wow that UI looks really nice! I'll definitely give it a whirl on my Kaiser when it comes out and give you some feedback. Looking forward to it.

Agreed. The new beta of WAD is looking freaking phenomenal! In a nutshell, put what you want, where you want it, no scripting, xml, etc.
As a recommendation, I think you should put on a widget that displays the usual status notifications: sms, email, missed calls, voicemail, but if you could make them seperate widgets that would be even better, as some people don't use the email one, you would be able to rearrange, etc. Just a suggestion, and again, I'm looking forward to this/

Giger Unique is going to finish
Well lets say - it looks nice - icons with 3 styles, each symbol with Alien Pattern... PN and ICO format for you (65+ images)
At last - you will be happy about iContact - there will be no icon?
How I did it? Kinder Surprise.... Touchable Alien body
and at all I added Application Launcher skin
And by the way - two more themes are wayiting (ot three?)
I know about Silky graphics (little bit fetish? ), Wood style....
and how about Wubmarine WORLD in your PDA?
OK... A stopped work on Giger unique - it takes me a lot of time to draw new graphics...
But here goes WOODEN with new icon set - check it
Very nice work mcmike_cz
is there any way you can put up your ul file that way i can just replace mine?

I gave that a shot....The SMS thing was great..but the rest was usless....If they would just make the sms seperate and be able to launch from the message icon it would be perfect.
I like my HTC homescreen plugin and my FunCotact app and dont wanna replace that.

The links you posted above seem to work but when I click the ones in the first post the first one takes me to some odd apple page and the second one takes me to a page that cant be found. I'm not trying to be a pain I was just a bit clueless as to what you were asking for.

Im not after anything. I just figured which links he might have meant because the formatting got screwed up. Whenever there's a bunch of "....... " in the middle of a URL, it means its been truncated when he edited or posted the original msg.
