Hi everyone, I know this is a noob questions but only recently I have been filling my XDAIIi up with applications particually today plugins.
I have noticed that when you get to a certain number of plugins, some dissappear from the check list box in the select screen.
One of these is TomTom Nav 5. I use this all the time and if it's not on the today screen i'm stuck!!!
Is there a way of getting an unlimited amount of today items, without them dissappearing fomr the select list menu???
I would greatly appreicaet a reply as soon as possible.
Regards,
lydiachris
nop i think the list in today wil only display 13 or something like that
they should still all be in the registry so if you go in there and remove those you dont use so the list will be shorter the today item you want should
be on the list in today items
Hi thanks for the quick reply, where actually in the Registry are they located??????
Please could someone help!!!!
just use search 99% of all questions asked in this forum have already been asked many times before and answered too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=21236&highlight=today+items
this hit was found by a search of:
today AND items
Rudegar , you're right ...
i think , people never search anywhere ...
they come here , and post a new thread without any search ...
i think that if they don't search , it is because they dont know how to search and what to search ...
and , finally , i think they read a few post on diverse subject and they dream to do the same as the best of this forum , but without understand any of they do ...
For all users , please , before asking a thing that have posted 3 568 984 time , please , use search , and try it yourself to find a solution .....
prob it's partialy a habbit thing
and maybe partialy a experience thing
with using the AND and such terms in the search and only searching like the networking forum if one is looking for mms gprs setting and such
so it would get easier with pratice
I think there's one exception: some postings are that large (20 pages or more) that it's hard to understand and find the right answer because many people have said many things and some are corrected some posts later. When English isn't your native language (like mine) it's sometimes very hard to search and find.
Hi,
I have the I-mate Jam.
I got this problem when sending text messages.
Each time I send one the message : Message send.
comes in my screen twice.
First I tought it was just a second warning but then my friends told me they got 2 messages each time with the same content.
And yes I get billed twice aswel :-(
I didn't try to hard-reset my I-mate yet couse I wasn't sure if this was just a technical problem or a setting in the messaging system.
Do you guys have had any probleems that looks simalair like this one?
or have any idea on how to fix it?

Is it not a general rule that before posting one should;
1. read the Stickies
2. browse through
3. search
In fact here's a nice link for everyone which I believe it was initially posted by "nonentity" http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/posting.php
Some people are just so dumb lazy and don't bother to do any of the above.
Why not just stay out of the post.... instead of replying with foolishness.
Just makes you look like you got your head up your arse..
It's the guys who post stupidly who have their heads up their asses.
Infact I did use the search function but didn't found what I was looking for.
But thanks anyway.
I have pocket plus installed so think it is solved now.
Thank you Zerimar you really know how to help people you should work at a helpdesk :wink:

Guys,
I know I sounded harsh but my point is that by doing some search with the proper words (i.e. sms sent twice, or sms sent 2 times) for sure you will easily find your answers:
Just to prove to you guys, I just now did a search using the parameters mentioned and found over 15 posts in a couple of minutes. In the third link, which is from Oct 2005 "elyl" already mentioned that this same question was already posted.

Yes, use search and don't post new threads.
What is with all of these new threads and posts by people that obviously haven't searched? BLAH.
Well, just to give the benefit of the doubt, try VITO's SMS-Chat (not free). PocketCM is probably the slickest Threaded SMS that's FREE, so I'm sticking to it for my needs. However, many of VITO's iWindowsMobile programs seem to um... "draw inspiration" from tene's PocketCM suite, and thus, the iPhone. Check them out.
Edit:
@curious george
I have to give them the benefit of the doubt the first time I see it from them. As a beginner I was initially intimidated by the elitist behavior of some board members here.

Dude, no doubt. Look and your and I's join date versus the number of posts or threads we have started. Its amazing. Don't get me wrong I know I did it as a newb too but dang. It is getting out of hand. before long all of the worlds best devs will leave this site for lack of control!!!
FYI, giving them answers in these new repeat threads only goes to encourage the behaivor.
i really don't agree with the search before posting attitude some people keep implementing.. especially on how the search function of this forum suck..
have you ever tried searching (in forum search - not google forum search, which is way way broad) with the keywords SMS or GUI in a string? it will never give you a helpful answer because the search disregards words less than 3 letters (to filter out articles and/or/at/etc i presume) and returns you with bull**** search reports (and how can you ever search for SMS anyway)..
also, since this is a forum, and a thread contains numerous posts, search engines tend to patch up words from different posts and construct them to a phrase as a result matching your querry..
another point is, since most of these people are noobs.. they don't actually know what they are looking for.. c'mon guys.. how can you search for something if you even don't have any clue on what you are searching for..
like his query, he's looking for a pocketCM style SMS.. maybe he is reffering to is a THREADED SMS style, which a newbie obviously wouldn't know (how can someone new instantly know that a chat style SMS is called a threaded SMS anyway?)..
or maybe he is looking for something that is VISUALLY and FUNCTIONALLY the same as PocketCM's SMS function but without the Contacts part - how can you even translate this querry into search keywords?
he's not been in the forum for ages like most of some people here, so even old stuff for us, will sound and feel new to newer posters..
for us, searching for something like threaded SMS is very easy since we have already passed and read all these threads reagarding SMS and we ALREADY HAVE A HINT on what (product name or keyword) to search for.. so don't expect everyone (especially newbies) to find his answers in his first few hours of searching..
given that.. the next best thing to do.. is ask those who already know..
maybe the best response to these posts is to give them hints on what specific keywords you are going to use for a fruitful search.. and not flame them to damnation..
this is still a forum.. and a forum is defined as an online place to Share Ideas and Help One Another..
even if this is a developer forum, which surely is True to sharing and creating ideas (or softwares) - no doubt, the notion Helping one another should never be disregarded..

Partially true. The evil you are describing is a turn earn system. The reason why this site is getting so difficult search is because tollerance has allowed newbs to continue to post new threads with out any restraint and it spreads the answers to common or frequently asked questions everywhere. IMO what needs to happen is a requirement needs to be established for new threads to be started. That would solve it.

Right on brother, some people tend to get a little too big for the britches and forget that forum etiquette goes both ways. I've read some pretty mean posts, and I really don't get why people have to talk down to the noobs. All I'm saying is if you wanna help someone out, great! That's damn decent of you. If you don't want to help someone out then don't, but keep your rude comments to yourself.

Hence why I explained SMS-Chat. There's no point if this thread turned into a discussion thread over the merits of searching, but I do know that there has been an absolute backlog of uninformed posts that could easily be searched. Often times, I even see posts stating "too many pages to read, so i'll ask this again..." or "i'm too lazy to read this whole thread, can anyone just give me a quick answer..." or "i'm new here. i want my phone to look like the iphone. i found some links, but i don't know what a cab is. this is getting annoying "
It's frustrating. Another example is the SPB Mobile Shell 2.0 Skin Collections thread. It states in the first post that the thread should just be for skins, yet I see way too many posts saying "Thanks" and not much else. I'm against flaming myself, but I'd just like to point out that afarinella97, the OP, has actually been a member of this forum for longer than I have.
Btw:
VITO SMS-Chat
Palm Threaded SMS
Birdsoft Extreme Text
Windows Mobile 6.1 Built-in Threading
Like I said, I stick with PocketCM. There have been requests for the developer to make the SMS standalone, but nothing's occurred yet. Have fun texting!

As spoken by a Newb!!!! Its not that we don't want to help out. Its that when help is spread all over the place it makes it difficult for newbs to search when they should be searching and difficult for people who have been here for a while to provide answers that have already been obtained.
you probably don't search.
why not open a new section called 'Questions' for anyone with questions to post there? ... most likely they'll never get answered but at least they wont be posted over here !!!
hello everyone! Thank you all for the answers but probably I would not have explained, I apologize in advance.I tried and looked with google xda but what I needed was simply a part of the programme cm pocket only pefr the sms ...Two programs will know wellocket cm I had for some time when I had a p3600 and I find it very nice but I prefer settings contatcs manager by default ...,Vito sms softwae I tried it but I am not crazy.
I just wanted to know if with some modifications registry could simply implement the graphics of sms as in the programme in pocket cm on my htc touch...sorry again and thanks in advance if you can help me now that i have been more clear with my question...
Bye

As a matter of fact poophead, I do search and I search often and frequently. And yes I said poophead not because I'm a 3rd grader, but alas because you're a poophead. All I was trying to say is be nice, us "noobs" search more than you think.
As a recent newbie, I do feel obligated to say a few things here:
Things to do for newbies:
1) Read
2) Read
3) Read
I discovered the site (from a link on fatwallet) after I bought my tmobile wing last October. Ever since then I was doing a lot of reading (more than what I do with my major - my advisor absolutely hates that, and so does my wife too), and learned a lot about the roms, terminology, great apps, etc.
I do not discourage asking questions, but I do think as newbie the question should be asked INTELLIGENTLY, which comes from a person who has done the reading and given a lot of thought about it. Frankly, I think OP's question is one of those.
As for the rest of us (elite, non-newbie, etc), a question should be judged by the quality, but not by the question mark. OP's question, for example, he/she understand what he/she is after, but don't quite understand the details which is OK. Given a few hints then he/she can start searching for the real thing. Azimuth21 has given some examples of bad questions and those should definitely not tolerated.
In general the question should be asked at the appropriate place; either the thread that directly concerning the topic (like PointUI, pocketcm, S2U2, etc) or at the general section of this forum. After all, the general section is there for this purpose.
Wtf is wrong with people here?
The thread has become an off-topic ranting thread already.
Best approach for such questions would be to either not reply or answer it without ranting about not using search and go.
Eg.
Newbie:
"hello to everyone, there is a program like pocket cm but only for sms?"
Reply:
"Tene (the developer of PCM) did not provide a separate module of PCM for just SMS, in other words, it's not possible to get just the SMS feature of PCM. You can try looking for Vito SMS (commercial app) or upgrading to WM6.1 for the threaded SMS style. Good luck."
See how simple and peaceful that is? And you have provided all necessary information. Can't we all just get along?
Like a famous dev here once said: "There are no stupid questions, just offensive answers."
because people dont know HOW to search properly. when you click search at the top here you can use the forum search and type in sms and click ONLY search the thread titles. this GREATLY reduces the numbers of hits for the word sms which would be hundreds of threads. i just typed threaded sms into google and got a slew of good programs right on the first results page- iwindowsmobile, palm's, txtman, etc etc.
People honestly dont try because i bet everything i own there are at LEAST 10 similar threads of this exact same topic out there with the answers too. How many times can the same basic questions be asked and answered? This just dilutes the real content of this developing forum which is for new programs and hacks and such.
all threads like this end up doing is making even MORE search results confusing the next batch of noobs with even more results when trying to search.

Well, WM6.1 has exactly the same feature as a standard...
And doubling what Azimuth21 said, I'd rather stick with PocketCM.
And.. my penny for the discussion: exactly, as DaVince said - if you don't want to answer, do not.
I agree that all the searching difficulties arose from not keeping the forum clean, but now it is done, you can't reverse it.... searching for something so generic is almost impossible here.
Newbie
As a newbie myself I can say that at first it is not common sense navigating the forum. I found that just reading through the pages (new posts, hermesm6 etc.) and being patient some other ignorant sap had the same questions and concerns I had. Us newbies just need to be patient and enjoy the process or READING and not just come here to suck out what they need and not enjoy the forum. There are so many things of interest here and to just spend all this time looking up an sms app. Anyway, hope the newbie can flash, I had the same issue. for me it was a memory consumption issue with pocketcm. I like the 6.1 threaded sms due to its intergration. I would also suggest searching for threaded sms as this is what you are really looking for. I don't think you are looking for anything sms. Also when searching try to select show posts only this seems to work well for me. Enjoy the ride, Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaad!
Oh look, I'm a member now, WHOOPIE!!
Hi
Please could someone tell me how i install themes on my touch hd? If someone could tell me what sofware i need and where to get them it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Please use the find function first, there are several threads on this...
i have treid and i still dont understand, maybe ive been lookin in the wrong places.
First of all, your query is theme related so should be in the Themes, Applications and Software forum.
Secondly, once you're in this forum go to search option and type in 'Theme' or 'themes' etc and you'll be presented with theme options!! The wiki also provides info on how to modify your HD's appearance.
Thirdly, in future try a little more searching!!
firstly - thank you
secondly - i did do alot of searching
and thirdly -

Well obviously you didn't search very hard as the Themes, Applications and Software forum is full of themes and installation methods
Just did a quick search and found Maxycy's theme maker v2
Also, no need for language. People in this community do share knowledge and help each other. I pointed you in right direction and you throw it back in my face!! Then you say you did a lot of searching? I for one don't believe you!! Tried searching myself and after 2 secs after I found something!!
Mod Edit: Removed Negative Comment
adz_rolls no need for the comment you made. You were pointed in the right direction. Consider this a warning in the future it could result in a temp/perm ban. Thread closed
Let's play nice, no need for name calling

What Fallen spartan is trying to do, in his own way is try to get new members onboard of the XDA spirit of researching and reading to get done what they are trying to do.
Sometimes there just is no anwser to a question but most of the time you will find it documented somewhere.
It is known that the Forum search is not the best in the world.
That's why there are some tips to be found on the forum on how to search XDA using Google.
Or you can try the custom XDA search Plug inin my Signature.
The good thing is that Fallen Spartan did not need to resort to NameCalling.
