Hi all
Sometimes when I touch near the bottom of my screen (to delete a text or choose a menu in IE etc...) the bloody HTC contacts program launches (the one where you can assign pics to people etc...) I don't use it and want it to stop appearing. Anyone know how to disable it?
Thanks in advance
Anyone????

Hi there,
on my Trion PPC with WM5 I have tried to work out a way to mark an SMS as read, without opening the messaging app by the push of one hard key. So far I couldnt get it to work. Has anyone come across a way do it ?
Reason is, that on WM5 the message self displays for a while upon reciept, so no need to futher open the Messaging.
Greetings

nice idea. i am also planning on adding this option for the application im creating.
any ideas?
upon receiving a notification, right soft button, and select 'save as read..'. Doesn't open the messaging apps, but not a 1 button solution.
The soft button way is obvious, but thats several clicks. Does anyone know how to assign a command under a short menu to a button ?
A One touch solution is what we need, its so anoying having to do so many steps each time you get the new sms pop up.
Greetings
Paddy
I would do it like noted above.. Add a button to the menu's of the notification .. and let it invoke a dll or application which uses MAPI functions to mark the sms as read.
I've always peferred to use Phone Dialler's keypad to search for a Contact by pressing a few alpha/numeric keys -
then I used press the contact that I'm looking for and select SMS or call mobile or home phone, or email.
With TouchFlo 3D's Phone Dialler HD, however, this is not practical as it AUTOMATICALLY DIALS THE CONTACT instead of OPENING IT to allow you to chose your contact option (as in WM dialler).
I don't want to go back to WM6 Dialler because I like everything else but -
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO CHANGE IT FROM AUTO DIAL (selected contact) TO AUTO OPEN CONTACT?
Maybe there's a registry setting that can be changed?
PS. I'd also LOVE to be able to make the SCREEN FONT for SMS's in the TouchFlo 3D MESSAGES Tab, any Ideas?

Yeah, this is an issue that has been discussed here before and as far as I know, there is no ideal solution for it. At least no one here has found any.
The only suggestion I have is to slide over (rather than tapping) the contact name when in the caller ID screen. This of course flips through the various phone entries for the given contact. However, it also means that it selects that contact without calling. Once selected, you have to press Menu (bottom right) and then "open contact". This is the same as opening your contacts list and tapping on a contact.
By the way, once you are in that screen, tapping on a number will initiate a call (or sms depending on what you tap), and tapping on the name of the contact (or picture) will open the contact file for you to edit it.
Like I said, caller ID screen is not ideal, but my suggestion might be a good enough "work around" for you. If you have a lot of contacts in your contact list, then my suggestion is faster than entering the contact list and finding that particular contact.
As far as your sms screen question - sorry, I don't know how.
please can someone help
i have had the phone a week now and there are a few niggles that are annoying me. the main one is contacts. is there anyway that when i select the icon on the home screen it takes me straight to the contacts list as opposed to my favourites? thanks
also - the phone doesnt go in to landscape mode during email or text, should it, or is there a way i can turn it on?
thanks
I know on mine there is an All Contacts button on the Home page. This saves you even scrolling over to contacts...
I recommend you to load a new ROM with which u'll find solutions to your pblms. Mine is Laurentius v 2.2, which is great !
Landscape on browsing, sms, etc... : easy !
thanks for your replies. actually, the most annoying is that when in emails i cant scroll down to delete trash etc without opening it. i think i am missing the little d pad on my beloved hd touch
When you're in the email inbox, all you have to do is tap and HOLD on the email header and it'll give you the option to delete it without ever opening it. Or you can delete multiple emails at once via the "select messages" option in the menu and then delete. It shouldn't be a problem...
As for the landscape problem, there are several programs that'll give you the ability to change to landscape mode whenever you want (e.g. HD Tweak, Advanced Configuration, Quickmenu, etc)
cool, thanks for the info there
Hi there,
On the HTC main menu bar, the one you slide horizontally, there is a shortcut to the HTC contacts program.
I don´t like this program since I can´t have a grouping of contacts per company which the built-in contacts program have.
So I was wondering how I can change the shortcut on the HTC menu to the built in contacts program instead?
I checked on other forums and the reply was that it probably can´t be done, maybe it can be done with a registry hack. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help ...
You can't change the Manila default program to show another program in the contacts tab.
One solution would be to set one of your soft keys or a hardware button to point to the contact program of your choice.
Also some contact programs like Resco CM can be set as your default program, but that just means it will open when you press All Contacts in the contacts tab.

Hey... I think what you need is... a direct dial/ direct message for a contact
So here's how you do it
1. Longpress on the home screen
2. Select Shortcuts
3. Select Direct Dial or Direct Message - depending on what you want to do
4. Select the contact
and voila - you're done
What I have is a folder on my homescreen with direct dials of all the contacts I call frequently.. its very useful
