the sim manager is in the "accessories" folder (at least it is in wm6.1, I think it was the same in 6.0). There's an option in there that'll let you choose what contacts you want to put on the sim. Not sure how many numbers a sim card can hold tho.

Not sure either but i think is 30 or 50 massages can be stored on sim. Dashwire is much better

wow. I just realized that I completely went off on the wrong track here. I started talking about contacts >< oops...
anyway in 6.1 you can select a message and hit menu and it'll give you the option to save it to your sim.

Hey just joined the site as a member and wanted to make a couple of comments. Thanks for all of the positive feeback! In terms of saving text messages, dashwire is nice because it allows you to save all messages on the web service for free, and control them that way, either searching through or deleting, etc. And there's no max in terms of number of saved messages.
Works with Windows Mobile 5.0 and 6 users.
Because we're new, any feeback or questions would be appreciated.

Ok...I love "Dashwire"
Im just not too sure its keeping all my messages.....I did around 14,000 last month and 12,000 the month before but it only says I have 10,001 saved.

Wow... thats a alot of messages. With the kind of volume you might be overburdening the system. Before you sync with Dashwire, delete some of the messages on your device that may have already been uploaded (if you have any). We haven't found a max limit on the number of text messages stored, so you should be fine. Let us know if you have any other questions...

I will...Im gonna log in and see how far back I can go...lol

word of advise my new friend, read A LOT before asking a question. learn to use the search button. chances are what you're going to ask has been answered.. if you're using the shadow/juno, go over to allshadow.com and look through the wiki there. enjoy modding your device!

By popular demand: the cabs i use

since i have received a number of requests for the cabs i'm using, i will just post them here.
if i've forgotten any cabs or if you have any questions, please let me know.
*thanks to all the authors of these cabs.

here's another.
[edit] i guess i should post the theme for batterystatus and give some instructions for that. you also need glossy black bars.exe for the black 6.1 theme to not b greyish. i had a LONG day so i'll post that stuff tomorrow

I guess this was more meant for me, lol. I'm gonna mess with em when I get home. Thanks.

i got like 5 PMs asking for them, but since i can't figure out how to use attachments in PMs i figured i'd just post them here.

Thanks for the SoftKey changer. That's a big plus. I wanted to change the left softkey since i've had the wing.

I was able to install Kaiser.HTC.Home.v2.0.814.722-schen.weatherpatched.zip and I love the look. Definitely an improvement from what I had. A couple questions about THAT though. First of all, the weather. It's a VERY nice feature. But unfortunately, it's not accurate. It says my city is like 26 degrees when it's like 80 today. If you need to know, my city is Providence and that's in the US. Unless there's another Providence city in the US and that's not mine. But there's only one to choose from.
Also, what's the difference between your BatteryStatusExt_Clock.1.05.CAB and the BatteryStatus I use from Chi-Tai or whatever?

change your degrees to Fahrenheit. you may need the home customizer for that, i'll post it.
as for batterystatus, it is from the same people, it is on their website, but you need that one in order to have the clock

I see. I'll be waiting for that Home Customizer then so I change to fahrenheit. I thought that might be the problem. I like the clock the way it is. So I guess I should keep the battery status I have already?
Also, what method did you use to remove the tray on the bottom? I thought it may be useful, but I don't think so anymore. I can always open stuff by the start menu or the launcher. As long as I can see the status of my battery on the today screen somewhere. Being able to lock it is useful too though. That way I don't accidently dial anybodys # and call them when my phone is in the carrier.
When the phones in landscape, the tray blocks what I have above it. I'd like to keep the appointments thing on the today screen.

i have configured the home plugin to just show the weather, is there anyway to remove the tab icon and the line that is below the city without disturbing the way that the plugin works?

not that i know of.
for getting rid of the tray, use a reg editor and find this
\HKLM\init\Launch92
delete the value TrayAp.exe and restart your phone, viola!
it's not letting me upload anymore. it just sits there. i'll try to figure it out.
any you can get rid of the tabs with the customizer but choosing the transparent buttons, but they look like a solid gray

Iphone like interface ?
I was told by a friend that he believes that he heard of a cab that will do what the ipone can do as far as with the touch screen. I have tried touch commander. But its not what I'm looking for... Please help

i downloaded a .cab that gave me phone an iphone look.. didnt like it all that much. your best bet is to use the search function. you will find what you need.

as what i have posted is from like october 2007 and the new stuff is from march 2008

Thanks for posting that man, appreciate it. I was searching for it (while you said you weren't able to get it uploaded), but I wasn't sure whether or not the ones I found were the same as the one you had. Obviously the one you have you used and it works, so I wanted to be sure I got the same exact one. Thanks again.

[REG] Better profile handling program

Hi guys, first post from me so excuse if theres some infos missing what you need, but I'll add as something is asked.
I'm a long user of Nokia phones and just changed my E90 into a Diamond. And the one thing that I really miss is that theres not exactly different profiles to choose from (or made your own). Theres only selections for silent and vibrate, other than the normal selections. And I really miss that from Nokia phones. Just a few simple clicks and phone has a loud theme with a different ringtone and SMS message sound, or then its almost quiet (like when my baby is sleeping).. I think you all get the picture, if you ever had Nokia phones =)
So my reguest is for someone to point out a program or if someone wants to make I would be glad, really glad I think some others would like these too
I could make another post but I'll just add few other programs also to here that maybe someone knows if there exists similar for Diamond
- BestProfiles (enable selected profiles to turn on at some time of day)
- FlipSilent (turn ur phone face-down and its on silent, works for alarming to go snooze)
- Putty (great for symbian phones but I found only programs that arent so good as this is)
Anyways thnx in advantage if someone can help a dude out...
PS. only had HTC for a few days but after starting using it I had to order a data-plan to my mobile and a better battery, but this was off-topic..

Try ageye's G-Profile (http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=gprofile/about), you get a fully 14-days working demo and full app is just 5€! One of the most happily money spent ever for my Diamond, now I even have it start playing music when I plugin earphones/carkit and stop when disconnecting!

Speech Text Messaging?

Ok, so my city recently passed a huge ban on cell phone use while driving. I know I can have my phone reac any new message to me wehn it is received and I currently have it set up to do so. However, I have heard of other phone coming with a speech to text feature. Is there a wway to get something like this on the TPS where I can speak the reply to a text and be able to send it that way?

I don't know of any specific apps that do this, but I'm sure they're out there considering Bling and Google Maps have this technology.

I dont recomend trying to text while driving & dont like applications where you use voice commands but you should try this one
Code:
http://vitotechnology.com/voice2go.html
(not free but you could try the tial) it lets you control your whole phone by voice and you could add custom commands but im not sure if you could set it up to reply to sms.
ps: by the way nice to see another member from el paso

Thanks for this...I will give it a shot. Not only is it nice to see another member from ELP but also nice to see another person with a TP2!!! I have only seen a couple here in town!

This would be a very cool feature! I am interested in this also. Can anybody help out with this?

microsoft tell me
i had it on my phone ported from i think a samsung device.
it didnt fit too well with the screen resolution and whatnot, but it worked.
although it doesn't work if you have an accent or if you want to send messages to someone who has a rather unusual name

i went to a At&T store for help with something with a friend, he had and still has a verizon blackberry curve but anyways one of the associates there had a blackberry and showed him a whole buch of apps he got from a certian website (dont remember what it was) and one of them was a talk to text app and it work almost perfectly. ive been searcing for an app like that for windows mobile ever since then and that was almost 2 yrs ago!!!! i also just found out a few days ago from my girlfriend that theres a app like that for her iphone. i seriously dont know what microsoft is doin but they need to step their game up and to all the developers out there, you need to beat them to the punch!!!

Didn't pick up on the SMS part. Looking for an app to read/speak email messages(non-SMS). Especially, would be nice to be able to filter by sender, subject, etc.

Ok, so I found a few cabs for TellMe, but they all crash shortly after launching. Any ideas?

im interested in this tell me app so someone respond to miked79928 please!!!

I use TellMeText Version 1.1.0 on my Rhodium Touch Pro 2. It installs and works okay. If the installation crashes, the best thing is to redownload it until it works fine. Also try the app on different ROMS.
I have used it on ARK_N's ROMS as well as on Leo Cell ROMS.
Make sure (I think) you install BlondieSoft_MobileCertificates cab prior to the intallation of the TellMeText cab.
Hopefully this should help.

Why not sooner.
If someone can rip the install from the Samsung Intrepid I think we can get something going.
The only other option is Vlingo and it is buggy at best, you can search the forums and people have had spotty success with it.
This could be a real difference breaker at this point in time in the Mobile Phone wars, I don't know why someone hasn't jumped on it and capitalized, tons of apps already use voice recognition (bing, google) for driving directions, I don't know why in a world where people are dieing left and right from txting while driving someone hasn't jumped on this.

The tell me ap works for some and not for others.. I believe it has something to do with the carrier you are with. That said.. you guys are probably better of going over to the tell me thread and reading through that to figure out how to get it working on your phone. I personally gave up. It would install fine on multiple roms I was running and as soon as I would to go speak a text to it it would just hang then give me some error.
Regardless... no sense in having multiple threads about the same thing!
Do a search in the Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps forum and you'll find it.

TellMe does not work for AT&T customers on their network on anything but BlackBerry. I ran a packet trace and the packets leave the phone but there is NO response.
WiFi works fine but how often are you on WiFi on the go?
You need to install microsoft voice command FIRST then this. Just search, the cabs are posted.

Display multiple time on the main screen

Hello guys,
Is there a possibility to view in the main screen 2 individual time settings? I travel a lot and this can help me see just by touching the mobile what is the time at home compared to the location one.
By opening some application it is just inpractical so is there some way to just add a small time next to the big one?
Thanks in advance.

For this you can use old version (2.0) or something of SPB Time. Earlier version used to come with today Plugin which can be used for multiple location times. However it'll be helpful only if you are not using TouchFlo as your today application.

Can we act like civilized people and avoid the flaming. If you have nothing relevant to say, it's best to say nothing.
