hi i cant seem to find any
Theyre are no smilies built into the phone as far as I know ... I use an onscreen keyboard called fingerkeyboard 2.1 that allows you to have keys linked to the smilie text keyins.

Hi, I am a new user to
A) this web site
and
B) this Phone. 5 days so far.....
I dont know if my topic heading is quite correct but I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong.
This phone seems to have so many names, anyhow, mine is on Orange here in the UK and called a SPV M3100
Right, only thing that gets on my nerves a bit with this phone is there is no
T9 "predictive text input" like I am and have been used to with Nokia phones for the last 7 or so years.
What I mean is, you all know how you write a text message on a Nokia with predictive texting. using just your thumb etc.
What I am after is, is there some software / program I can download that would make the screen like a keypad within the send SMS program. so it is easier to text.
Because unless I am mssing something. The only way to text on the ORANGE version is either with the slide out keypad, or with the virtual keypad and stylus ???
Thank you for reading this and perhaps you can advice me.
To get T9 with a normal style phone looking interface you can install the PhonePad application which is available here on this site (its linked in the Hermes Wiki):
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/Phone Pad - English Only.CAB
You can also use the Block Recognizer, Onscreen Keyboard, Letter Recognizer, Symbol Pad and Transcriber as well as the slide out keyboard on a standard M3100.. In fact I think the options are the same as any Hermes?
I have just upgraded to the new official WM 6.1 ROM, and have noticed that before, when I would type a new text message and begin typing in the name of one of my contacts in the "To:" box, their name and number would come up so i could just choose it without having to type out their full name. Now I can not do that anymore, I am not sure if it is after installing the touch (original not diamond) keyboard because i never tried text messaging before installing it. Is there a way to get this feature back, because it is much easier than having to click menu add recipient.
Also, for the touch keyboard, is there a way to choose the full qwerty keyboard always, because whenever i try to make a new text message, I can only get the phone pad like keyboard (three letters per block) or the qwerty with two letters per block, is there a way to always get the full qwerty?

It has been my experience that this is due to the Touch Keyboard. I had that same problem, along with characters not typing correctly when I used the hardware keyboard, that made me un-install it from my Sprint Mogul.
Also, it is a known problem with the Touch Keyboard that it will not let you select the full QWERTY keyboard. I know there is a fix for it by using an altered Touch Keyboard, but when I tried the altered one it also had the same problems as the original, so I un-installed that one as well. My advice to you would be to un-install the Touch Keyboard and use something else like PCM Keyboard, that is the one I use most.
Another thing, it might take quite a long time for the Touch Keyboard to un-install. I know I had to leave my phone sit for about 10-15 minutes with the wait cursor spinning around in the Remove Programs setting before it finally was deleted.
I hope this helps!
its not a keyboard problem thats how 6.1 is my phone does the same thing regardless of what keyboard im using
it seems to be a problem with the touch keypad, as after uninstalling it, I am able to select my contacts for a text message as soon as I begin typing their name. Thanks for the help.
Hi, i just wanted to ask for help, because im from Spain and need the "Ñ" key and i also want the "_" key on my QWERTY keyboard. As soon as i saw that there werent those 2 keys, i was wondering if there's an application that makes me configure normal keys (like Z,X,C, those who doesnt have blue letters) so that i make them also have "blue letter", like Ñ or those things
would be very nice since i only use qwerty for writing sms
thank you !
try x1bc. you can associate fn+a (,b,c,d,f,z,x,c,v) to any letter (or program)
any way to do in topaz?
Maybe you could try SmileySMS, but it's for VGA. But it's possible to run on WVGA if I recall correct. The program is still very basic and lacks support. But it worked for me on my old Diamond 1 with threaded SMS disabled
I typically hit the number input button in the bottom right of the landscape keyboard... Faster access to smiley characters ( colon, parenthesis, hyphen etc)
It appears that smiley buttons are only enabled in text boxes on web pages, so may be an a feature activated by using Opera / IE only.
By default you can't have graphics to show up when using smilies in messaging for example. HTC keyboard does have the : ) Shortcut on the keyboard.
In this case I would recommend FingerKeyboard. This has the fastest smiley input around

Yes it does, you have to pull up the 12# tab and then click the 2/2 button, some predefined smileys there but all text and no actual smiley faces. Also only a few...
That was extactly what I was saying. It just don't do graphics!
Too bad there aren't any graphical smileys supported. Really basic, but still missing.

SMS doesn't support graphics, so what's the point anyway... the presentation of smileys is all up the receiver's handset.
Correct, but even if the receiver doesn't have and smiley support, you can have it when receive SMS, and it's so cool to see smiley in SMSs.
I miss Animated SMS from my Nokia N95
I suspect someone asked this somewhere in this forum, but I couldn't find it. I like the swype keyboard, but I really miss the voice to text available in any input field like I have on my current phone (Aria) and the Genius button is a poor substitute.
It's already on the phone. long press inside of a text field and press change input method then change to touch input.
