[Q] So, does android/G1 sms support smileys? - G1 General

I know, not a critical question, but just curious, as its been years since Winmo was released and it still has no native (or 3rd party native) smiley icons support in text messages!!
anyone answer this for me please?
thank you

The only native emoticon set is built into GTalk and it's pretty rudimentary.

EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service) Animations

Hi all,
one thing I used to love on my Sony Ericsson phones was the EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service), mainly the little animations. For those who don't know EMS lets you include preset animations or sounds in texts by sending them as a code. The receiving phone then reads that code and shows it's version of the same animation/emoticon/sound.
Sadly the Diamond doesn't have this and I miss it a lot as they really brighten up texts. I believe though that the SE Xperia X1 does have EMS support so I was wondering if anyone knows how to get this onto the Diamond?
Many thanks,
Mik
hi mik, used to see you a lot on se-nse when I was a lurker modding my w810 lol
anyway I'm afraid I can't help you, also I think the x1 doesn't have the animations,it is really a htc device with an se badge.
I believe microsoft has to add the function to the messaging app for it to support the animations, but I don't think it'll happen.
Hi roflnova,
I'm still busy on se-nse, actually an Admin on there now
I had read that the X1 had EMS but obviously that info was inaccurate. However, surely this can be added with a software app and doesn't need M$ to implement it. I have found a few old topics referring to certain apps but they're all so old the links are dead or just go to something unrelated.
Anyone know which apps are available these days?

actually no has paid attention to this topic but its very good & urgent
just see this link

I guess it's something that long time WM users have never had so they don't miss it and aren't bothered.
Thanks for that link, I had seen that before but doesn't that just enable the use of an EMS client and still leave us needing that actual client?
So is there no good EMS service for the Diamond?

No Search by Voice and Voice to Text on Legend?

Hi,
I apologise if this is a silly question, I'm new to Android (received my Legend a couple of days ago). I had been under the impression from reading a bit about Android 2.1 on other devices that the search by voice and voice to text parts were integral to the OS. However I saw the following on the HTC website;
Q. How do I search by voice?
This feature is not a default option in the system, however you may go to Android Market to find related applications.

(from the HTC support website)
It's not a huge issue for me but I was surprised it wasn't on the phone. Is there something obvious I am missing or is there a way (preferably without rooting) that I can add this functionality; can someone recommend an application to try?
Thanks for your help,
adam

SMS Missing Features on Dash 3G

Hi Everyone,
I am new to this forum and new to the Dash3G. I just flashed to 3VOLUTION ROM. I am seeing that a few features are missing in the SMS Section, not just for this ROM, but in the Windows Mobile O/S Overall.
1. SMS Lock Code. It's pretty standard now in most normal phones. I saw it so weird that a Windows Mobile Smartphone did not have it. Is it possible to get one? Either by a Custom ROM or an Application?
2. Smileys. I raelly like to see that instead of : ). Is it possible to get this enabled some how.
Sorry if this has already been answered. I searched and found nothing.
Thanks!
The SMS threaded feature is ghetto and needs an overhaul. I spent the whole day looking for a plug in and software to get a SMS chat style interface. God damn touch screen phones. Most of the software is geared towards them!
Anyone know any SMS Chat that will give notifications?

[Q] SMS App with multi-select and delivery report

Hello,
I really like Android on HD2. Currently i use Subcraft 1.5 and i'm happy with it but there is a major disadvantage for me in Android.
I really need these reports for sms that tell me when a message is really delivered and i need a quick method to select multiple destinations.
Well the standard sms-app has the report-function but no good destination selection.
Handecent on the other hand is nearly perfect but doesn't has the report function.
Does anyone of you knows an app that has both? (Destination selection like handcent and reports like the original)
Handcent does have the delivery report option look under send options you should find it.
Sent from my HTC HD2 Android
wrong forum
Yes you are right. I was sure to have looked at every possible option but somehow i missed it. Really strange.
Sorry for wrong Forum.
I think i should have a closer look in the future. Would have helped in both cases.
Thx anyway.

[Q] Voicemail recorder / Answering machine app

Hi,
I’m looking for an “on phone” voicemail recorder. One that plays a recording of a greeting and records the message on the phone. I’m not interested in voicemail services, carrier features, SMS do-flickys or call re-directors.
I have found several programs that do this but they don’t seem to work on the desire (rooted). The last I tested was Airvoice. If it worked, it would be just what I’m looking for.
Does anyone know of an application such as this that will work on the Desire? There have been loads of simmilar requests all over the net yet no dev. has been able to do it. Whats the deal?
Thanks
Chris
Yes, something like Samsung mobiles...
it would be great....
...
Any News on this topic ??
Does one found a working app to record?
