for those too scared to flash to 6.1 (or have other reasons not to), here is a very intriguing method of getting the palm threaded sms to work quite well, not covering up the input area.
good luck.

Man thanks! was going to get rid of this thing, but now im loving it more by the day....
Threaded sms is nice, but if you don't get notified of them what's the point??
The palm threaded sms app ( i used codyppc's) is ok, but the notifications on my vogue at least, are so buggy that it's not practical. Using HTC theme, with HTC Home (sms counter) and half of the time it doesn't increment. S2U2 also doesnt' recognize new SMS when this threaded app is installed.

what apps do you have installed? what rom are you running?
the sms counter can mess up sometimes, but it has been my experience to work about 90% of the time.
Just have the stock ROM that came with the Sprint Touch.
my notifications start out working, then quit, then sometimes come back. I can't figure out any rhyme or reason - new message or new conversation don't seem to matter - i have done a hard reset and only installed the palm threaded sms app - doesnt' matter. I love it when it works, but...
Apps include:
- MS Live Search
- AC S2U2 .99
- Arcsoft MMS (still have hope)
- the MusicID app
- MemMaid
- Google Maps
- YouTube fix
- Full Screen Keyboard
- Sprite backup
- teh duttythroy Vista battery bar
- Opera 8.65
I use treo alert. And it works fine, for the sms issue. u can set it up like you want it....
does treo alert allow you to configure the sms counter in the HTC Home today screen plugin? I assume it probably doesn't but hoping it does. i'm looking at this, http://discussion.treocentral.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=15006&d=1180917118, and it's hard to tell.
I dont think it do's. are you running the palm threaded sms hack>?
yes, running codyppcs threaded sms app - the one with the SMS softkey if that matters. love it when it notifies, but can't figure out why sometimes it doesn't. i have tried combinations of closing out of the app, having a totally different app open, putting the touch to sleep/hibernate, but it's never consistent.
I am having issues with the dragstlye sip hack. It seems to cutoff off the bottom row of keys and the majority of the second row with the standard sip keyboard. It also cuts off some of each of my other entry methods. has anyone figured out a fix for this?

Thanks again.

completely agree, think a lot of people would
I believe this has been discussed and it is too integrated into the ROM to be extracted.
use vito's threaded sms software
Hi,
i use VITO's SMS-Chat since 2 Days :
it works like the threaded SMS from PocketCM.
Beautiful and easy.

This is palm threaded sms. I tried vitos today but I don't like the design
6.1 SMS on 6.0 would be nice.
I suggest using the PALM threaded SMS app..

I have to ask the obvious, Why not just upgrade from 6.0 to 6.1? It is much more stable, for me at least, than 6.0.
No offense intended. To each his/her own.

Because some of us can't upgrade to 6.1 there is no 6.1 for my phone at the moment, for example.
I have a TOUCH CRUISE
- VITO SMS, doesnt work with the Touch Keyboard, the keyboard only rights numbers.
- When using the PALM THREAD SMS keyboard, the keyboard stays over the text of the message, wich is really bad to use
- There is no 6.1 for the TOUCH CRUISE right ?
Any other ideas

Is no one willing to do this?
VITO SMS-Chat vs Threaded SMS WM 6.1
Hi
Now that Vito has a promotion to celebrate their 7th year anniversary (SMS Chat at US$7 only), I was tempted to get it. But since WM 6.1 is coming soon... I was also wondering whether it's worth the money.
Has anyone tried both and can he/she shared the differences/similarities? What's the benefit (if any) of getting SMS-Chat?

I haven't tried other options except the Dutty 6.1 release and after experiencing the problems I had I had to revert to OEM. I installed SMS-Chat and for $7 I think its great. I am still on trial but plan to purchase. So far it has worked without issues for me. Threaded SMS nice layout. I suggest trying it before buying and make a judgement for yourself.
Hi
Thanks for the feedback. Personally, I would like to have it integrated into the default SMS application, so that it won't take up extra ROM and RAM.
But like you said, maybe I will give it a try. Before that, can you tell me whether SMS Chat is an application that needs to be launched all the time in order to access it or will it operate in the background, taking over the default Inbox, until you deactivate it?

It works in the background. I did a soft reset of my device to test it without previously launching the application and I had my wife send me a text and it automatically came through sms-chat. I like this apart from other modifications because I don't have to mess with the registry. I have full control by uninstalling it if I ever don't want the application. If you do try it let us know your thoughts.
I'm not sure whether I want to pay for something which will be made available to us free of charge eventually when WM 6.1 is out. That's why I am still contemplating about it.
was reading an article over at coolsmartphone.com - http://coolsmartphone.com/news4008.html
The U.I looks really cool and was wondering if there was a way to get it for the Touch Dual? Cheers!
I believe that's a question for the Development board, not this one. I think I've seen something about that there ..
looks nice, shame it still links to the CRAPPY looking windows mobile apps, i wish someone would completely revamp the entire shell of windows mobile
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386133
Thanks!
Yeah! I also really long for something that would replace the ugly-ass WM apps, such as SMS/Email, Calendar, etc.. So if anyone find anything, please let me know
I had this working on my mine, but shifted to UL which is pretty awesome
same here ultimate launcher is brilliant. ive installed vito sms-chat and vito fun contacts too so its rare i see the hideous wm shell now

vito sms chat, how is it for you? I liked it but it created a new SMSfolder which I didnt like and SMS notifications wouldnt work anymore. On vito Quick contact, can you still pop out the software touch keypad? I mean I know we have the hardware slide out keypad but sometimes I like just using the touch screen.
sms-chat is fantastic. although you dont recieve the normal text alerts you should still hear your sms tone and a little semi-transparent window pops up in the centre of the screen with the sms info. In my opinion it is a lot better than the normal wm sms and even better still than the threaded sms in wm6.1.
Fun contacts works in such a way that you dont need to use the keyboard unless you are editing contact info and ive just confirmed for you that you can use the software keyboard as well as the hardware keyboard for this.
hope this clears things up for you
Will try to give vito SMS chat another trial. Thanks!
Try lord smiff threaded sms. I love it.
Work better then yota or phonex
Contact Manager | February 4, 2009 Pocket PC
Beta Released
Built on the experience and success of Resco File Explorer, developers at Resco decided to create an application which makes managing contacts a quick, efficient and pleasant experience.
Resco would like to announce that the new application will contain the following features:
Touch-optimized interface
Easy navigation
Chat-like ordering of text messages
Letter navigation
Favorites
Quick search using keypad
Direct calls
History of calls
Easy assigning of pictures to contacts
Managing contacts in groups
Today plugin – quick access to all your commonly used phone functions
..and many more
http://resco.net/downloads/pocketpc/contactmanager/en/RContactMan_beta.exe
This looks very nice.
The only problem i see and for me it's the overruling off the keypad.
Thanx.
Looks Good and works fine... But there is just English Letters to search Contacts...
it's the first beta release guys ...upgrades will come soon, and specially also because it is nearly the Mobile World Congress
For a first release I am very impressed.
It definitely outdoes Yota contacts and any other contact program.
Not to mention it actually includes it's own shortcuts to the various tabs!!! Definitely a HUGE plus for me!
Maybe works betters, but is awesome ugly xD
Yota looks better

Not yet possible, but I posted a request on their forum for this, and other features. They say they will work on it.
Anyone interested should go to their forum and voice your support for adding these features. Resco seems to be listening.
Looks veeeery equal to PocketCM, which is my favorite app for more than a year.
Better donate therefore, as to buy such an obvious clone......
Just my 2cents
volume buttons don't work
Hi
the taskmanager is working after a softreset. but now i cannot use the hardware-volume buttons anymore. A press shows the normal screen but i cannot change the volume using the buttons - only with touch..
is there a way to repair this?

You should post also the version. ok?

disable 'replace send key' in the setting..that should work

thanks! you saved me from deinstalling! the phone-app is now back to the htc-standard but thats not a real problem...
really nice contact manager and much faster as all other alternatives.
this is a good one!
I see that there are many new cooked ROMs available now.
Too many for me to try all.
I therefore would like to have a feedback on these 3 issues:
1. which ROM has 4 columns grid (under programs)? (Xanny ROM does, any other one?)
2. if standard 3 columns are used in your cooked ROM, how to convert to 4 columns grid? is it easy (I am a non-specialist non-software programmer)? Are there any tweaks so that we can arrange programs in 4 columns without need to edit the registry?
3. which ROM has HTC messanging removed or made "removable"? I strongly prefer the standard SMS messanging function, but I cannot disable HTC messanger...any help?
Thanks a lot!
Saulo
another utilities which I would like to have in the ROM (I cannot recollect exactly the name) is the one which places an icon on the program list to perform a fast soft reset (without any time-losing warnings...). Can somebody point a link for me? A google search of xda-website search results in too many hits.
Thanks again
Saulo
Hi saulo866,
Just pick up the best ROM you like.
You can easily instal 4row Start menu with this *.cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5207820
About the HTC messaging, There is a way to set it back to 2.1, which was good. But its in VGA, so graphic are a bit off. You can found it in this forums, search. Or I found app to dissable HTC messaging and use winmo messaging app. It is for HD (not HD2) 2.5 , but it should work too right? Try it to see, its easily uninstalable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614.
Thanks a lot Kowoboy!
You gave me two very precious in formations which I was unable to find out even after extensive research!
I will try to unistall HTC messanging with the utility you have pointed to me, then I will feedback whether it works or not for HD2
Thanks again!
Saulo
Just tried the HTC Messenger uninstall linked to above on my HD2, worked a treat, thank you so much, i can actually receive SMS' now!
