{REQ} making a message into an appointemnet or reminder - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

hello all
i belive that it would be a really good idea if the mail application menu can be extended to make a calendar item or "reminder"from the email or the SMS. on the desktop outlook i can simply drag the email to the calendar button in a second. i wish i had a similar function on my phone
im not much of a programmer and i would really appriciate if someone can do this as it will be a huge time saver for far too many people
thanks
ps btw, i asked about this before but all i got was a suggestion to post here

ohh well. i guess ill have to settle for using the "flag message" feature

TouchFlo 3D Unread Count Wrong

Is there any way to reset the unread mail count in TouchFlo 3D? On the slider at the bottom I have a one too many unread count (since my last hard reset), I've tried to use the fixunreadcount tool available on FreewarePPC.com but this doesn't notice the problem, does anyone know of another way to fix this problem? Many thanks in advance!
Go into your inbox, open the folder view, and look in a different account; you might have the "Welcome to Outlook" or whatever message left over somewhere.
Haha, good call! Many thanks! That was really getting on my nerves!
Yeah, I got pretty frustrated when that happened to me .
Many thanks LeszekSwirski! Was driving me mad too!
Mine was the 'Email Tips and Tricks' email automatically created in my Outlook Inbox. Did not find it earlier cos I don't use Outlook and I don't have Outlook setup as a tab in TF3D. Must have got there the one and only time I connected to my PC using ActiveSync. Seems obvious when you know how!
Your a genius
thanks LeszekSwirski.
that was driving me NUTS!!!
you da man
And what's about "message" ghost count?
I have a "1" in the message slider in TF3D, and is not real...
Any advice?
Thanks.

SMS/Emails (Where are the icon indications)

Hi all, did a quick search to find nothing related to the below:
I am having hard time knowing which SMS I have replied, or which email I have forwarded.
The icon in the inbox never changes, only an unread messages becomes read but no indication if it has been replied or forwarded.
If anyone could advice or point me to the right direction please, many thanks.
Did you try HD Tweak?
I think you can set what you want using this app.
SMS / Email Icon.
Hi GoldCoin, I have checked HD Tweak and found that you can get sent notifications although this is not necessary.
What I meant was, when you reply to a SMS the icon in the inbox should change. An example, you can go to your hotmail account and reply to an e-mail or forward and you will notice the envelope gets marked that it has been replied/forwarded too.
I have attached an example of the icons.
I hear you...
I'm looking for the same feature.
I recently changed from 6.1 to 6.5 on my diamond, don't remember the name of that rom. But i actually had the feature.
However i've now changed to a different 6.5 (lower mem. usage), and it doesn't have the feature, i'd be very happy to hear from anyone who knows the solution. Will keep investigating myself though
Ironic, it's a business phone and they forgot the icons. Work around, I have added 2 additional folder in my email inbox: Replied and Review. Once I have replied an e-mail I move the message to Replied folder, that way I can track which ones I have left to reply. Other e-mails that need reviewing goes into the Review folder which I usually access through the PC due to it either being a large excel/presentation or just a forwarded email.
Hmm, you're right.
I could have sworn that my original stock ROM had those little icons. I think it was the same envelope icon with a little green arrow on it.
I'm now using Dutty's 3.7 XT ROM and all the icons (in the windows sms application) are the same.
Does anyone else also remember that icon I described, or am I just imagening things?
One thing I do notice is in the SMS/MMS inbox.
If you have it set up to "threaded view", then in the list of messages in the inbox, it will show a short preview of the last message in the thread. If you wrote the last message, then the preview starts with "Me:". That's a quick way to know if you responded to a given text message.
However, the problem still remains when using emails.
I hope someone can figure this one out.
I had the feature in a ROM cooked by someone from xda-dev, don't remember which one though, I still have the ROM somewhere on my computer, and I'm trying to locate it and figure out who to ask about it.

cool!
I posted a question about it in Dutty's 3.7 ROM thread, but I haven't had any responses.
Well, i found out that the rom I was using, was one of Lobsterdave's...
However i also found out, that on my current rom (6.5) if I: open the inbox, press a message to open it, and use the reply soft-key, it will actually work.
A bit teedious, but the only way for now.
I asked in the thread of the rom, and wasn't really supplied with anything useable. Just a suggestion to cook my own rom...
I'm actually going to give a try. Until then I gotta admit... I'm starting to loose hope.
I think maybe the rhodium manilla, is able to flag messages, without opening inbox and so on. But that's not an option for me, as I'm running the old TF3D.

Is there any way to make the email preview count as marking it 'read'?

The title pretty much explains it, is there a registry change that can allow mail flicked through in the preview in the HTC email app to be marked as read instead of clicking on to them to go to the full message?
Sorry if this has been answered but I couldn't find anything when searching, thanks for your help.
+1 please!
Having to open it up in WM is annoying and pointless, why can it not be like SMS's??
Anyone ever find an answer to this? Got a TMoUS version yesterday, and it's really my only gripe with the device.
+1 from me as well. That would be an excellent feature.
Yes please!
count me as another!
Would like to know this too its quiet annoying having to open the email.
and also... either make it look like sms, either make the fonts smaller (or the "page" wider)
There's a Cab on here which gives you option (within the email client) to "Mark all messages as read", which is handy.
And huzzah! I think this is it...

Notification of new email

Hi,
I use my HD2 with exchange synchronisation. It works well with one big problem!
My Exchange sorted the incoming mails to several folders. The problem is that I only get a notification if a mail is incomming directly to the main folder of my mailbox. If a mail was sortet in a subfolder there is no notification. Is there a reg tweak or something else to learn the HD2 to beep every time when a new mail arrives?
It would be great if this is possible, because currently i have to look to all folders the see if there is a new mail.
Ghostraider
Same here...
I love to know a way to do a new mail notification on 'folders' too. However, I recall it did this on my iPhone too, so I'm not holding out too much hope!
Does no-one have a solution for this - it's driving me nuts ! The only thing that I've found in my searches on the 'net is the something from blackmonlabs called message-notify (I can't post the URL due to restrictions in this forum, but Googling it should turn it up)
This would work, but is going to screw up the lovely home page of the HD2, so is not really practical. What I'm looking for is something that will display a count of ALL unread messgaes irrespective of whether they are in the Inbox or have been automatically moved to a subfolder. Obviously this should be displayed in the Email notification icon.
If anyone can come up with a solution, I (and many others judging by what I'm reading elsewhere) would be very grateful !

Quick Reply

Been a fan of WP7 since it was ported to HD2 but one thing keeps me away from it because of a missing feature - the QUICK REPLY option on SMS.
I really need that feature which would allow me to insert quick replies to all of my SMS with choices of SMS templates. I know that there are couple of Apps that would let me create SMS Templates but it wouldn't allow to insert sms templates as a reply rather it would create or compose a new sms with the pre-loaded sms template. I know copy paste would do but I'm looking for an easier way to do it.
Is there a way or an app that does this? I already did some research and tried some apps but i could never find an app or a way to do it.
TIA

will allow you to get missing function such as messaging template which have been avaliable in the mobile phone for past years back in Windows Phone 7.
You can add or edit the exisiting template so that you can send quick replies to your friends via SMS or email.

Have you tried it? I tried that app already before and wouldn't do that quick reply in the middle of the conversation window (since most on my conversations list are anonymous persons/phone numbers only and they are not saved on my Contacts). If that app would work like that then I should've missed out how to do that feature.
I wouldn't be able to try that app out once again since I'm on Android right now, if someone would try it out for me I'd be grateful, if none, I guess i have to roll back to WP7 again
Anyone pls?
