SMS: "read"

Hello!
First I want to thank you for your great Forum!!!
I have a question, which I hope someone can answer:
Is it possible to attach a option "read" to the Popup, which opens when a SMS arrives. I can only choose "delete", "save as unread", ...
But there is no possibility to choose READ???!
Can anyone help me to solve this Problem??
Thx a lot
Korbi

Pls Help!!!
Or is it possible that i am in the wrong section here???

Is it really 'save as unread'?
I have Delete, Call Sender, Save as READ and Dismiss in my soft menu.
May be your ROM is different. I am using latest imate ROM

Sorry!
Of course it is "save as read"! But still you cant choose "read" either, can you?

"save as read" option is exactly the thing as the "read" option you are looking for. No reason for a read option in the popup.

I got the same problem.. You receive an sms. get the small teaser. now it would be great to click on a "read" button that opens the sms to read the whole text.
if i click on "save as read", then the sms is saved a read, but does not open. if it was a large sms, i still dont know what was the whole text...

if there is a large message i have "VIEW" option on the right hard button (on screen) so... VIEW = READ (the whole message)
Wisely, the VIEW option only shows if the message is bigger than the popup window dimensions

Yes thats right. I already knew. But sometimes I wnt to read even short SMS in a hole New Window. The Popup fades after a short time. And this is sometimes to short, to read all the information.

Heyya
Im not 100% sure what your trying to achieve, will going to "messaging" in your start menu and opening SMS help?
3rd party software might be your only solution if not.

Yeah, of course that will work. But I want to have it instantly. If I get a message, there is a Popup which shows the content. But after few seconds the popup closes and there is only a hint. When I click the hint the popup comes again and closes again after few seconds. So I want an option to READ the sms, where the whole text stays until I close. Or a option READ where Messaging opens with the SMS (same as it is with longer SMS)
Thx
Korbi
Sorry if some explanations are wrong, but I have a German XDA Neo

oh yeap now i understand, appologies.
i'll see if there is a registry change that can delay the time of the notification of SMS display. Im sure there will be one as it appears to always hold for the same period of time on the screen before minimizing.
in the mean time try handango and trial some software for a PIM mod to the SMS display.
good luck till then.

Send sms with unwanted delay

Hi!
Can someone tell me why my magician PM10A don't send sms immediatly, but often with unwanted random delay?
Sometimes it send message only when I turn up the device or when I reactivate the Messaging software...
mah!!!
Thanks,
w_s

Do not close the Messaging program before the SMS has been sent.

but is it normal?
Hi, and thank you for reply!
Is it normal?
This problem happens even if I do an hard reset.
Do you think I need to reinstall the rom?
w_s

We really need more information about the problem.
Could you please go through the process of sending a regular SMS message as I suspect you may be doing something wrong or it might not be a problem at all?
Thanks.

the process
-I tap on display to start messaging sw
-New sms
-click on the icon to open the contact list; then I choice the name and automatically it past the number on the header of the sms (but here I can't see the name, only the number)
-write message
-press send button on display
-it closes the window; now I can see the messaging page (incoming) but the notifing baloon don't appear!
-close messaging sw
After second but sometimes hours (even 5 hours I verified) the sms will be sent.

Have you tried to wait for the "message sent" notification balloon before closing the messaging application and seeing how long it takes for the notification to appear?

Tryed!
If I wait to close the prog it send the message after nno more than 5 seconds:
is it normal?
But if I close the application the random-delay is present...
Thank you,
w_s

Hi wildsetup, thanks for clarifying the matter. There is nothing wrong with your phone, when you send the SMS if you close the messaging application before the message balloon appears confirming the SMS has been sent, then this delay will occur.
TIP: Always leave the messaging application open until the SMS has been sent.

Thank (xda) godness!
I will be patient and wait for the baloon...
But is it the same with other devices, more recent and using wm5 for example?
Hi!
w_s

On no one of my devices a delay like that appears, so to me it doesn't seem to be normal. My question: Are you using one of thousands of tools witch force the applications to quit when you click their X-button?

I've installed...
spb pocket plus and resco file explorer.
Others application I've installed are not (I think) system involved...
Hi!

SMS read delay

Hey guys,
As I'm sure most of you are aware... the touchflo 3d interface on the Touch HD has an SMS message window... now when you receive a message, it obviously displays it. However the "new message" icon appears on the touchflo bar (at the bottom) still while you have the message up for a few seconds. This is quite irritating since it usually appears for longer than it takes for me to read it, so I have to wait for it to dissapear then tap the message to reply in order to not have a new message icon forever!
Anyone know how to change the time it takes for the new message number to dissapear? Ideally I'd like it to be instant as soon as the text is displayed! I'm talking about the little numbers over the SMS icon on the touchflo bar....
hope all that made sense!

i second the motion --- i would like to have a solution for this as well! any info from anyone on how to modify the touchflo3d interface for this, would be greatly appreciated

Add to this the same issue with unread email. I hate to have to open inbox to mark the item read. Another thing, can't delete email from tf3d, but can delete sms. How to delete email without openning inbox?

There was a possible temporary solution to the email problem.
Try using "Safe" Inbox Extender
NOTE
This is only a temp solution for email and not sms until a proper solution is found

As always, you have been most helpful. Thanks Fallen Spartan! However, what would be more useful would be the ability to mark any/all email read without navigating away from tf3d email tab, i.e. without opening inbox.

This would be the perfect solution, however I haven't seen this anywhere

This is also on my list of annoyances for the email thing.
With the SMS I find it dissapears after about 3 or 4 seconds, so I just wait until I hit reply.

TP2/ TF3D sms problem

Hi, I remember a while ago someone posted a fix for the problem whereby multiple sms messages are not sent in TF3D when no response has been received from the recipient (by which i mean, I cant send two messages to the same recipient through the conversation view, without first getting a reply to my previous sms). I just get the error telling me that my message cannot be sent.
I have had a quick search, but i'm struggling to find the solution here. Can anyone remind me how to get around this please?
thanks

answer here...I havent been texting so I havent had time to test it out. Back ur cell up using sprite backup etc before applying changes. Only downside after making the change I notced is with sprite backups. In order to create succesful backups u have to exclude "htmlnote.dll" & "HTMLNOTE.DLL" from the backup.

all messages menu...please

In all the messages menu, we have the list of messages and the picture of the people that we send yor received. Please what means in one of the pictures a small green ball with a number 1 inside? Can someone tell me?

1 unread message...

no... it´s all read. that´s why I asked....

I think it's the number of messages in the conversation

Those are in brackets, it has to be showing the number of unread messages in the green.

Have you opened each message from them individually?

It does mean the number of unread messages, opening that conversation for a coupel of seconds SHOULD remove the icon.

yep, I opend everyone. it´s not that

It IS that, but it screwed up. have you done a soft reset yet?

soft reset done... continues.... or it´s not that, or something is wrong...

Delete the whole conversation with that person...

can´t.... but ok, thank´s for the help.
