Great work on getting the SMS Chat view from the 750v extracted!!!
I would also like to see the following Palm Innovation extracted from the 750v for everyone's use:
"Dial or message by name:
Look up and dial contacts in an instant from the Today screen by entering just a few letters of a contact's name or phone number and pressing Send. You also have the option to send a text message or email – with just a quick press and hold1. There's no need to navigate to your contacts list and then over to email, you can do it all from one place."
Isn't it just as easy to press the green dial button and use the default smart dialer?
By tapping and holding the search results you can sms/email.
Problem is that the HP hw6945 doen't have a Smart Dialer.
The cool thing is that with this you can do it from the today screen.
I just figured out how to set mp3 ringtones for the Sony Xperia... but I'm wondering if there is a way to set a different ringtone for each contact in my phonebook ??
Yes open the contact and scroll to the bottom
I opened up the contact, and it shows their name , call, and send text message only. When choose "edit" to edit the contact, I can only change their name and number. Can you be more specific please ?
When I edit a contact I have 20+ things I can change about that one person. One of those is 'Ring tone'. Might be some of the SPB software adding it but I doubt it....
Ohh, ok thanks! I found it in the SPB panel, but it's not there in the windows mobile contact for some reason..
I think it depends on how you have the contact saved. The option to add a ringtone to a contact might only be available if the contact is saved to the phone, not the sim card.

On my X1, this is how i get to do it.
1) open contacts from start menu.
2) select the contact to edit. You should now see a screen with options like call mobile, call home, etc
3) click onthe name of the contact, and you should now see a screen with a lot of options for that contact.
4) scroll down until you see the option for ring tone. now click in the text space for the ringtone drop down selection box.
Hope this helps. There are also a lot of other useful options to be found on that screen, like setting pictures for contact. birthday reminders, etc.
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.
I use Orange and everytime I go to pick up new messages on my answerphone I have to dial '1' from the menu options to hear them. This is a pain on the Blackstone because you have to wake up the screen, pop up the keypad and then press '1'. What I want to know is is there any way of building the '1' into the telephone number so that the tone is automatically sent when I dial the number?
Dear friends,
I've got the X2 for 1 month, and updated to MR2 as soon as i got the phone. Been happy with the quicker response, and rarely freeze. But after upgrade i found flaws that make me dissapointed :
1. In the middle of conversation, usually i have shortcut to Notes, so i can make notes while talking. Now the button is gone, replaced by much less useful dialpad. More strange, now there are 2 identical "end call" button : one is big , in the center of panel, one is small at the bottom of the screen. This is ridiculous. The only way i can get to Notes is to press Windows logo, go to main menu, scroll to Notes and press the icon. Thats way too long.
2. In the contact menu, i can only register 1 mobile number, 2 work numbers and 2 home numbers. So if the contact has 2 mobile number, only 1 can be assigned as Mobile Number, the other must go to Work or Home. The problem : if we open the contact, the only option to send SMS is to Mobile Number, not from work or home, despite it is really a cellular number. Apparently the software think the Work and Home number as a landline number. This is stupid. The only way to send SMS to work/home number is go to message menu, and press "add recipient", and so on. Why can't they make it from contact menu??
3. If i got a calling from unknown number (not from a Contact), usually i want to save the new number as a new contact or add to exsting contact. But i cannot do the second thing. I go to call history, choose the number, press the menu key, and all i get is "add to contacts", and it only allow me to save the number as new contact, but cannot add to existing contact. very annoying! i have to write it down in the paper, just like old days
I don't know if the above flaws happen because of the upgrade, or this is the new Windows 6.5.3 habit?? My old Ipaq 912 with Windows 6.1 can do all the above mentioned.
I feel very dissapointed...hope you guys can give me feedback?
Thanks for reading
1. Notes when calling is not in the menu anymore, I'm not sure if it's every WM 6.5.3 device. You have to go through main menu.
2. Adding contact works great when you enable the prompt asking you to add the number to your contacts after finishing conversation. In this case you're able to also add it to existing one.
3. Every WM, also 6.1 supports only 1 mobile number.
However when you create sms from your messaging, you can send the sms to ANY number you want.
Thanks - and tips for LED problem
Thanks, appreciate your input. I have enabled the option to add number after conversation.
I personally think the Notes in calling mode, very useful. I have seen it in every new WM phones, including HTC and Samsung. Its pity they removed it on X2.
One more thing, about LED notification problem (which dont work when the phone enter standby mode /black screen), and the phone will not wake up when received SMS. I have simple solution, but there are sacrifices to made. here's how :
1. Disable the Auto Lock
2. In the backlight & power management menu, in the field "turn off backlight after....", fill 30 seconds or 1 minute, to save battery
in the field "turn off screen if not used for..." choose "never"
3. Dont' forget to set the illumination for SMS/MMS received as "no limit"; in the "sound and notification" menu.
4. (optional) Enable auto adjust backlight in the backlight & power management
Basically, we prebvent the phone to enter standy mode at all. This will reduce the battery life about 20%, but you will never miss a sms. Any sms will wake up the phone, the SMS sound will ring, the LED will light until you read the SMS.
Also, because the standby mode is connected to auto-lock, you cannot auto-lock the phone, that means you have to lock it manually everytime you finish use the phone. You can lock quicky by using SPB Shell, and create Lock shortcut in the front panel. Or in any mode, press "windows" logo on the left bottom, then you can see the lock button on the bottom screen.
Cheers!
Personally I've never had a problem with smses.
My previous OS never showed anything besides the icon and sound alert for sms. I never liked my sms appearing on the homescreen.
Current behaviour is that it plays a sound and doesn't wake the device up. So it doesn't activate in the pocket.
You just wake the device and see the sms icon anyway so missing sms is not such a case.
If you set the sms sound as a quite short file, it will always play a sound.
At least it does in my case.
