Removing Green highlight when writing sms - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hi
I managed to remove the green highlight from words when writing sms, but somehow it has come back after trying to backup the device.
Anyone know the thread here to remove this? Searched but can't find it.
Not a major issue, but bugging me as I had my diamond working just as I wanted and this little thing is niggling me....
Thanks in advance

you are using the threaded view or normal view?
which green highlight are you reffering to?

When writing sms
the word being written in the main message is highlighted in green.
I did find a thread where the green could be removed so all text is black on white background. This I preferred.

m600 sms viewing problem

I have an Orange M600 from France, which I use here in China. I have been having some issues with the unit which seem to come up when I use the camera. getting a frozen screen. Up till now it was nothing that a soft reset could not fix. This time I was using the camera and a text message came in. When I went to open it I got a blank screen, where I would noramally see the text of the sms. I still can see the windows icon,clock etc. on top and the reply,keyboard and menu items on the bottom, otherwise the screen is white. If I try to to reply the only thing that changes is reply changes to "send" and the rest of the screen is white, if i click on the keyboard icon i get a keyboard but no text will come up on the screen.
1)my instinct is to hard reset the device and see if it helps
2)I'd like to try to backup the sms data but not aware of the solution for that
3)really want to get everything onto my SD Card
4)when I returned from the trip where this occurred the active sync started giving me grief(I think found a possible solution for that but thought it could be related)
5)wiki is a hit/miss thing here, today no access
6)Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided, I am pretty new to this.

Lost Phone Dialer Keypad?

I had a Blue large Keypad that was displayed with the number, Speaker On/Off, History, End and other keys. Well, stupid me, I was cleaning up some old applications, and I deleted one that I forget about. Guess what one it was? Yes, the Blue Keypad. Now I cannot find it. I have been searching this site, Howards, the Internet, and cannot find it. When I go to my Phone Screen I see only: My top Bar, T-Mobile in the body of the screen and the lower bar shows the words: Contacts and Menu.
Can anyone help me to get my phone dialer back? Thank you in advance!
I just found a Smart Dialer and installed it. I have been searching for hours. So, right after I posted this 'HELP' I found:
SmartDial_BigKey_Black_1.1.zip
If interested here is the link for it:

Thanks anyway!
Do you recomend a better Smart Dialer? Always open to suggestions. Thank you!

Looking for couple of rare tweaks... - please help

Hi there,
I am hoping to find just a few rare tweaks for my Diamond, here they are:
1. Anybody ever though of (can't believe nobody did) a tool for left-handed users? Specifically, a.o.:
- WM vertical scrollbar displayed on the left not on the right
- In TF3D, the People tab, the slide-out bar to display some of my favorites is on the right and not on the left. Sliding with left hand is no good because the palm covers the screen.
2. Is there any way to transfer contacts with non-ASCII symbols from htc memory to SIM?
3. Managing text messages. Once you browse Inbox and single click on a message it displays along with the keyboard. What makes big sense once you want to send a message is useless for reading messages. Any way to rid the screen of it? How about the font used to display the message. Which registry variable sets it?
4. How about SMS channels be displayed on today screen? It is possible to add the channel but not display it.
regards
With regards to #3, can't you just tap the keyboard symbol at the bottom-center of the screen to make it disappear?
I sure can, but tell me one reason to do it?

Text issue once upgraded to 1.66

Hi all,
I have upgraded my HD2 to 1.66 - the WWE version from the HTC website. Now when typing a text message, about half the time the machine starts to go slowly and the bottom text that I'm replying too turns a black colour and I can't see the text that I'm trying to type into the reply, but the XT9 text suggestions still pop up.
It's really weird and I was wondering if any of you guys had come across this, as I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else on the forums.
Thanks!

It's a known sms issue since the last sms update. Nothing can be done for now. You can either disable HTC messaging or wait for next HTC update? (if they even recognise this as a 'bug')

Stock SMS/MMS changes

Hi,
I just did my first steps in Android programming. And what is better to learn by improving something that you dislike?
So I changed a very tiny thing: the SMS/MMS app's "Send" button.
It now shows from the beginning the remaining letters of an SMS. All this appears on the "Send" button now (below the "Send", just like the text when you send an MMS).
I put a screenshot of before/after into the attachment, so please take a look and tell me what you think. Does this make sense? Should I make something of this configurable? Any further suggestions?
I did this primarily to learn a bit about Android, but now I'd like to go further. So any comment welcome
My thanks go to olearyp from the CM IRC channel
Cheers
Chris
Love it! Big help, for sure. Is it for the black background mod/CM MMS app?

I've looked at the patch, and it should require minimal massaging to apply to irrenhaus-based messaging apps. Most of the actual message entry code appears to be unchanged or nearly so from the AOSP version.
Message code is indeed completely unchanged.
I'd like to know if you think that I should add preferences for this like enable/disable it or configure the number of letters before it kicks in. But maybe that would be too much for such a tiny feature.
EDIT:
Now I see what you mean with black background mod: The thing that is on my mobile and enables me to activate a "fullscreen" keybord which disables the "remaining letters" display completely. I'll rebase my changes against CM sources. They are currently against the original ones.
Thanks for the feedback so far!
Cheers
Chris
Patch available
The patch is in the review now, if anyone wants to take a look on it. I'm a new user so I can't post links yet, but it's on the CM reviewboard as number 686.
Cheers,
Chris
nice work ^_^
Nice work papillon81, very usefull
Hopefully they can put this in a nightly.
Can you implement an option that let's you choose with which app you want to send the sms, when pressing the send button or the button for new message?
I use websms for sending sms, but want to use the stock sms app for reading. It's a bit annoying to go back to homescreen and than open the websms app everytime.
Best implementation would be that when you press new message it just asks, if you want to use stock sms app or websms (if installed). For the send button in the message threads it would be nice that it asks and when websms is chosen, it copies the typed text and the recepient to websms (if possible).
Well, the best option would be to use the stock SMS app for reading and writing and supply different backends so that you can send SMS via your provider as well as via an internet service.
The patch is still in review, so if you like it, comment on reviewboard, too
Chris
