So I like to chat on AIM with co-workers, friends usually MSN and make a few calls with Skype. I don't much like the AIM GUI as the scroll bar on the right is too small. I don't like using the live messenger either. So, I came across Fring and found it was pretty sweet.
BUT.
The box where you type your chats is at the bottom of the window. BELOW THE KEYBOARD. I can't even see what the other person typed unless I hide the keyboard. I find I'm continually hitting that keyboard button. Anyone else find a work around to this? I tried the settings to see if I could move it to the top but no luck.

Few questions, SMS, Default screens, etc

I have tried searching, and haven't had a whole lot of luck.
Had my TP2 for about a week, and have updated it to WM 6.5.
1. How do I disable the SMS Text sent notification? I have installed Advanced Config, and have also tried changing it in the registry, with no luck...any ideas?
2. When on the home screen, the bottom bar with Home/Messages/Mail/Music etc, how do I get the Messages or Mail to go straight to the inbox, and not show just the one text or one email on the initial page? Am I clear on explaining that?
3. When I click on Phone on the bottom left, is there a way to make searching for contacts easier/faster? When I pull up the Contacts, is there a way to already have the search bar there, instead of having to hit the Magnifying Glass every time?
4. How do I get my phone to use the on screen keyboard when I flip it landscape? When I turn it, the screen stays up and down, unless I open the keyboard, which is the only time I have gotten the phones screen to rotate with the phones position.
If anyone has any answers I would appreciate it!
Thanks
Matt
wrong forum dude. touch 2 is not touch pro 2.
maybe that's why i couldnt find anything!
thanks for the heads up!

I don't know how to look for this on here..HTC sense quicklinks?

After installing the update from TMO, The little bar that flips between mail, home, internet, images, music, etc. "shrinks" into a little black tab in the middle of my screen at the bottom.
This is super super annoying because it takes an extra effort to click on the damn thing and then slide my finger to scroll. This also requires a second tap on the screen when i go to browser because the first one simply 'collapses' the little thing and the second one will actually respond to the internet icon you're tapping on.
Tell me there's a way to turn off the collapse of this stupid thing. I tried looking on here but I don't know what keywords to use to search this out. Something like 'htc sense update hd2 registry change' yields nothing.
TIA

It sounds to me like you have cookies home tab enabled?! That is strange are you sure you didn't flash to a custom rom?! I have that one my phone and I have the update but the only way I was able to get that was with CHT. I have attached examples.
Yep! I do have cookies home tab installed! Dang..so is the setting in that to change it? :bangs head:
I'll take a look.
WTHAT A MORON. Thats its. The 'retractable slider' setting. I can't believe I didn't realize that was cookie and not HTC.
Thanks a million for pushing me in the right direction.
Awesome! Glad I could help! I had that enable for a while but it became a little annoying so I took it off! Hahahaha it does make it look really cool!
Hey, thanks for the info. I'm glad I learned about that.
I also have Cookies, and didn't know about that.
Now I have just enabled that feature. Why? I don't find that "ribbon" at the bottom very useful, as it is not very customizable. Nice to have the settings button there at the right, but one can also do that with a Quick Link. I like the music app, but one can also do a quick link for that. Withouth that ribbon, there is room for another row of quick links. (I find it unfortunate that that "ribbon" is so uncustomizable. You cannot choose what is in it, but only what to remove (other than settings and home). (I don't really need that home icon either, because there is a hardware button for home.) I don't like how that "People" tab goes to "HTC People". I'd rather go straight to the regular contacts list. But it can't be changed (AFAIK), only removed.
So by retracting it, I remove the whole thing (can slide it back if I want), but can put the links I like in that ribbon into quick links, for which there is now more room.
Thank you.

[Q] Gesture Trace on ICS?

In zips creamed glacier rom (all versions)
when you go to the settings option for the messaging app
there is an option to show gesture trace then the sensitivity right under it
so i enable it and go back to messaging and it shows a yellow line when you swipe your finger where the messages appear.
does anyone know how we can set certain gestures do have certain functions?
or what the heck its used for
i know some devices and tabs have gestures but thats on apps and the home screen where you make a circle and it takes you to music app or something
but this is only in the messaging app.
any info would help
guess no one knows then?
ffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
me too
I have a similar problem after flashing my ATT Captivate to Serenddipity 7. When I use the text messaging app a yellow line appears wherever I slide my finger. It goes away after a few seconds. Is it related to the Swype keyboard settings?
edit: found it, messaging app has setting for gesture trace....uncheck this. Problem goes away.

its not a PRoblem for me i just want to know what it is used for.
im thinking maybe you can circle an object then while keeping your finger down on the screen draw a letting representing what you want to do with the circled object or word.
but that doesnt work i don't know how to set it up.
its unchecked by default. i checked the box to get the feature but i dont know how to use it.
my question was what is it used for
same question. searching online turned up nothing X_X

Hope this helps... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28306765&postcount=53021
As I explained in that thread to another user, the gestures are used to call upon premade message templates. You can set up those in the same Message app settings.
I searched and your thread came up and it seems you didn't found an answer either.
:good:
