Alright so everyone can prob agree... We have all these sweet ass phones that we mod ourselves to give it our own touch. Well don't you hate it when people go to see your phone and they're all like, "Hey let me see that, it looks sweet!!" blah blah blah... then they go and look in your text messages. Kinda annoying when I let someone play with my device and they try to get into my personal business.
Well basically what I am asking with all the talent out there... Is there a simple program that someone(s) would be willing to try to create that makes our SMS passcoded. Basically anytime you want to go into your messaging folder that includes your inbox, sent, outbox, drafts... that they need to enter in a simple 4 digit passcode. I bet I'm not the only one that would like this program....
Thanks in advance!
i would love to have something like this...not just for sms but for all programs. i remember my first cheap phone (motorola) they have this feature to block/allow apps and be passcoded. it would be great to have something like this....just a question as if its a popular request i guess....
great idea!
i love this motorola function, i'll love to see an application to do this on our phone.
EyeOnPrivacy?

I have been wanting this since I pulled my Tild out of the box. Couldn't find it so I eventually bought this;
http://imate-smartphone.handster.com/product.php?id=521
It's okay, but as I said in another thread it can be a little *clunky* to use. And I know I paid WAY TOO much for something that should eb relatively simple.
yea...ive been wanting a program like that for a whileee!! i know somebody out there can develop a nice simple program that ask for a password for certain app...

Been trying this out for a while today... works pretty good... Just kinda plain and boring looking though. So if anyone is still up to the challenge to make something very similar but maybe a little more modern looking.
Hey all,
I agree with the fact that this type of software could be in high demand. I am not a developer myself, but I did design a Wisbar theme called VistaMobile, so I would definitely be willing to skin the program if someone could do the coding. I really love this whole PPC scene (started with an MPx200 Smartphone about 3 years ago, now using an HTC Uni), and I really want to give back and be a part of something more than the VistaMobile theme I had created.
I should also be able to host the file with a dedicated page on my protogenLabs site, if any developers are out there and wishing to team up.
That might just be wishful thinking, but regardless, it would be great have a stylish version of this type of program. More and more people in North America are finally getting used to Windows Mobile being somewhat mainstream, so I think it's a good market ready to flourish!
Sorry if I went on a bit of a tangent, but I'm all for a program that would do this sort of thing.
PM or contact me from my protogenLabs page if you are a dev interested in partnering up with a designer for ANY projects really...
Thanks!

it's called Ez Secret SMS and works great but on VGA devices the password keypad is unusable
We need a simple software to ask for a password when entering messaging. That's it, no funky lists and fluffy software. May the Force(of developers) be with us
glad to see everyone agrees with me, its nice to think that this is something that everyone would enjoy as much as me. So developers check this out! If your a developer or someone that think you might be able to take this on... leave some feedback on here instead of just reading then leaving... again thanks everyone, we'll be waiting!
yea i need something like dat badly!!!
ILL Try to develop something...

There's to be no talk of WAREZ on this site.
You should try reading the rules
11. Don't get us all in trouble
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things that will obviously lead to legal trouble. If you wouldn't do it on your own homepage, you probably don't want to do it here either. This does in no way mean we agree with everything Hollywood, the record companies and the software piracy lobby try to impose on us, it simply means you cannot break any laws here since otherwise we'll end up dealing with your legal hassle. Please use common sense: respect the forum, its users, and those that write great code.
Has anyone made a free program for this yet?

i don't think so... i think a simple password prompt for accessing SMS/Email messages would be cool.. problem is, all the software currently out there is bloat and full of extra stuff that most of us don't need.
this can probably be done with mortscript but again, it requires additional installed programs..
i'm still looking around, but there isn't much in terms of what we're looking for.
now if we could only get some interested coders in this thread to whip something up
eye on privacy is a good one... theres alot of other stuff like a "safe sms" inbox that stores txts you don't want other people to see when you enter a 2ndary password. It can also lock dialing functions, call history, contacts, calender, tasks, and notes.
Then it gets into some really paranoid features that no one will ever use unless you're 007.
The pin screen that comes up when you go to your inbox is very finger friendly but the one that comes up when you go to the program to set the password and change settings is not.
Hi!
I was wondering, if it would be possible to have an new Tab in Manila wich only contains plain text. I would love to have notes or maybe new years resolutions etc. displayed in this tab. This would be awesome and it doesnt seem that its very hard to make such an app. But I have no experience in developing apps after all...
Maybe one of you guys could give it a shot.

Any comments? Any help?
Hi there
I realise that this post is a /few months/ late. In fact, it's a new year =P
I also have only very little experience with programming and I am very interested in making something like this too.
Have a look at m9editor as well as Manila Editor. I am currently looking at m9editor (and also learning about it as well!). I think that the tabs will be relatively straight forward enough to add. However, the text on the screen is a different matter as it's not a matter of simply typing text. We need to write a .lua file in code.
Since I have never heard of .lua (programming language), it will take some time.
Have a shot though
hey everyone another question for you all,
i have looked around a little bit for a way to do this but i haven't turned up many results that had a great solution
Alot of my friends ask to see my phone and i usually let them, i just really hate it when people read my txt messages, is there any programs that let me just password protect the messaging portion of my phone so that way i don't have to really worry about people looking through them when i let them see the phone, my older flip phones had a way of doing it i just havent seen one on this phone.
the closes thing i found to a solution was to put this one .exe file into the messaging folder on the phone, i was wondering if there was a .cab file that did the same thing so its quicker and easier
Search google for "eye on privacy"
Hi,
I guess this is kinda a question and a request, but I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who hates the WM interface for SMS/Email - both creating and reading.
TouchFlo did nicely with the reading part, but not so well the writing (as it diverts to the WM interface, instead of a nice GUI)
I'm not much of a developer, but dabbling here and there... I'd love to make my own interface, or install one (saving me a bit (lot) of time), but it all seems in vain...
So, my question - has or is anyone developing a nice little GUI for this, or can someone point me in the right direction to get started...??
I've tried trawling MSDN, but being a bit of a newbie programmer, absolutely nothing makes sense to me...
Thanks...!

Thanks Dickenz,
This looks good...! I use Resco contacts for my SMS which is half way there (nice read interface, but no write)
It would be great if this integrated Email too...
Cheers
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?
