Ok I have a question. Since PocketCM has its own threaded sms and looks good with the bubbles etc, shouldnt it be possible for someone to make a threaded sms app with that same kinda look and interface? I mean, pocketCM is nice but it wont pop up automatically for me when I get a new text and u cant do it like the normal messaging app having an inbox whereas using pocketCM u have look up the contact, go to it then click on sms and history and that seems like a lil much just to get to messaging and its only for that person. I'd rather not have scroll thru all my contacts just to get to one. The guys at PocketCM should look into making their iown messaging app
if they could set it up like the shogun threaded messaging app w/ fixed input so you could see what your typing when using SIP keyboard it would be awesome, it doesnt seem like it would be too hard, but maybe it is
Shouldn't be too hard. PocketCM automatically shifts upward when typing a new message. I really like the interface of the sms part of PocketCM. Does anybody know a mortscript script to bring pocketCM up on the "Contacts with SMS" screen? Or maybe a .lnk shortcut for that??
Good question....I am waiting such application asa well, since Palm messaging didnt work well on my PPC.
my sentiments exactly... another one who's waiting for a good sms theader..
I'm waiting for this one.... hopefully it's going to be ok have waited a long time, though. Maybe it's difficult to make such an application.....

what about just combine the in and sent box?
I was waiting for such an app too, palm app didn't just do it for me. My brother bought an iPhone, i played around with it and i really liked the SMS App, so i decided to develop my own Threaded SMS. Currently i am working on it, but it's going a bit slow cause i dont have enough time to work on. I'll post it here asa i get an alpha ready.
Meanwhile if you have any suggestions or features that this app can have, plz dont hesitate to drop me a PM
cheers

i would love to see the inbox and sent box threaded on one screen, so there is no need to go seperate contacts in order to see who i've texted....

Uhm, that's not how PCM works. If it doesn't pop up automatically and you have it set to in the options menu, you should check with tene over at pocketcm.com. As for scrolling down to find who sent you an sms, if you just go to the sms screen, it will be the first contact at the top of the list. They're sorted chronologically. That's how most other threader programs do it too. If you've been scrolling down through all of your contacts on the main screen, you've been wasting your time.
just wait for wm6.1, its got a great threaded sms
the Cody threaded sms is pretty good, but kinda slow and laggy and the most annoying thing is that sometimes it just opens up by it self. Is there anyway to fix that?
does anyone know of any other good threaded sms programs? I tried cody's threaded sms, it opened on its own, sent multiple copies of messages, and sometimes didnt even send messages. I installed textr but it just froze my mogul. I dont like pocketcm or the sms app from pocket-sms.com because they arent fully integrated. does anyone know of any other sms programs that work correctly and fully replace the default sms app (like cody's threaded sms does)?
yea i have the same problem as you Sturatt. I have been searching for a good SMS app. cannot find anything. I really like the Cody's Threaded sms features and layout but it has too many problems and does not work well on my Mogul. I want a good SMS app that is similar to cody's threaded sms. Also I don't want to wait for WinMo 6.1 if it is ever released.
Please see itje's thread about the WM6.1 ROM he's scheduled to release this weekend. I think that's what he meant when he said just wait for WM6.1...
Windows Mobile v6.1 ROM due to be released by itje - Touch IT
oh thats good news. Thanks for letting me know, I cant wait now.
Extreme Text by Birdsoft
Has anyone tried Extreme Text by Birdsoft. Its not freeware, $14.95. But it looks simple and stable and you can use poutlook and it reads the same database.
Any thoughts?

exactly. More than anything, i want it to completely take the place of the default sms app (like palm's app). Threaded would be nice, but even if its not, ill settle for a program that just replaces the default app.

So then what's your problem with PCM again?
Does anyone know of a TXT messaging program that shows the conversation in a THREAD instead of an email?
Usera: Hello
Userb: hey hows it going
usera: i'm fine...
--------------------
(send)
somethign like that.?!
search for the palm messaging ap, or upgrade to wm6.1
Palingro works, but it embedded itself on my PC (you have to install to PC and phone) and wouldn't uninstall, so I got rid of it. I tried a few of the other IM programs for WM, but nothing really works all that great.
I wish Yahoo! would make Yahoo! Messenger for PPC.

search for textman it works
VITO SMS-Chat
PocketCM
Birdsoft Extreme Text
codyppc or shogunmark threaded sms (don't know the difference, haven't tried either)
Windows Mobile 6.1 has threaded sms built in
TextMan
Personally I use Palringo, since it has the ability to send texts over the internet. Thank you WiFi

They have one. http://yahoo-messenger.en.softonic.com/pocketpc
The only thing I don't like about any of them is they don't replace the txt app that comes in windows..
If you can I think the best option is upgrade to wm6.1..
It is annoying when you have little or no signal and you send an SMS only to get an unable to send SMS notification. It would be great if it could auto retry (AND get rid of the draft when the SMS is successfully sent).
Is there such a program? Couldn't find one on google or here.
Could someone make one?

Not sure with the standard messaging features but add ons like Vito SMS chat have this feature (resend) rather than searching through draft folders like you said.
I would like to bump this thread again. This can be a real annoyance and I can't imagine a skilled developer would take long to write an app to do this.

I completely support the statement that this is super annoying. Can't imagine why noone has tackled the issue so far.
I think many would appreciate this to be done..
so the app should always be running in the background?

Maybe integrated to the WIndows default SMS application?
i think the app should monitor if a new sms is moved to the drafts folder

But this would send even the messages you intended to move to drafts folder. like messages you intended to send later. but if it is not possible for now to integrate to the existing default sms app, i think this is an option. BTW i know you can do this oldsap, ive been using some of your apps since way back to the SAP era. thanks for that.
How can I get messenger to stop showing EVERY message when I reply to a message.
It takes up the whole screen pretty much and I can hardly see any of what I'm typing.
I just want a blank message/ screen. Don't need the whole "conversation with" thing.
So how do I do that??
Thanks
Larry
Do you mean SMS or MSN Messenger?
if its SMS you can change the option between Threaded which is what your describing or classic, look in your sms options I have upgraded my Rom and its a different process but same outcome.
I believe when you open an sms you have the options there, or in your settings someone with an original or similar Rom will answer more correctly sorry
Another option is HD Tweak its a great tool with lots of options sms viewing is one of them find it here http://www.montecristoff.com
Hope thats what you mean

Does anybody know how to make SMS look like for example in Outlook, just classic view where SMS are arranged by date (newest on top)?! There are SMS tweakers on WM phones which anable to switch between classic and conversation style... but i found nothing yet for android!
I guess you will need to make your own app for that. Maybe theres an app that has that option. I don't know about this but u might try handcent or chomp.
i just found appl. called SMS Tray Lite which almost fullfilled everthing i wanted...
