Okay-- maybe I'm just imagining this-- but it seems like I've had it on a phone before--
Is there a plugin for the today screen that allows you type and send the message right from there? Not linking you to the phones messaging program-- but with an input box and everything right there on the today screen?
Like I said-- I think I've had this on a phone-- but I don't know anymore for sure-- or what it would have been-- I appreciate the help--
Thanks--
I think this is quite neat.
Maybe it starts up as a small bar on today screen that says "Messaging" just like the regular messaging today plugin, but expands when you tap it to show bigger input boxes... how come I haven't seen anything like this?
Has anyone notice the following quirks on the Imagio? Trying to determine if I got a lemon and need to exchange:
1 -Unusually bright background with the default settings. It seems like if a picture has black image in the camera, the device is able to display the black, but just in general use, as you slide the slider to the different views, it appears that each of the pages has a very bright (almost white) background.
2 - Characters not appearing when typing on IE or Opera: It seems that when you type something into the IE or Opera, there's either a severe delay in displaying what is typed or it just won't show at all until you hide the keyboard.
3 - Screen rotation: One of the things that was nice about the touch pro 2 (yes, I traded mine in for the imagio) is that when you slid out the keyboard, the device would rotate the screen. Given that the imagio doesn't have a slide out keyboard, I would have assumed they'd have built in the screen rotation as a default for every screen. Is mine not working properly or is this something everyone is noticing.
Just some of the things I've noticed so far (only had it for 2 days). I'm sure I'll find more
Oh - has anyone found any screen protectors and a iPhone-ish case for these things yet?
I don't see the first two quirks you listed on my phone.
The third is a known problem, and can be fixed with an app called: gyrator

This is not a problem. The phone is designed only to rotate in certain programs. If you want to have more control over that, there are other programs out there to make changes, like the person before me mentioned.

1- Camera sounds like a lemon
2 - keyboard driver is messed up, hard reset and you should be gtg (had same problem with that extracted diamond2 keyboard on my touch pro)

Thanks for the info Sweeny. I should clarify item 1 in that it's not isolated to the camera so much as it's isolated to the background intesity on the LCD. I took a side-by-side comparison picture against the Touch Pro 2 (which seemed to be working very well) and sent it into HTC when I filed a bug with them.
Hopefully they'll tell me the phone is defective and I can request a replacement from Verizon. Otherwise, something needs to be fixed on HTC's side.
The better description is that it's like someone took an LCD TV and just cranked up the brightness on it. So instead of having a black background, you have a high intensity gray background.
One more quirk...
Here is a different quirk: On the device lock page (the slider), it has a "1" next to the lock picture. This is supposed to be for new emails/texts/messages/calls, but I don't have any. When I do get a new call (etc.), it shows as '2'. Why does it think I have a new message (or whatever)? Is there a way to reset it?

If you use TouchFLO, do you show a 1 on any of the tabs like messaging? Or if you go to Start, All Applications, and launch Messaging, do you see a 1 next to any of the accounts?
I have the same issue, I have 1 new email showing on the email screen. I have no email accounts setup on the phone, I use a seperate app for my work email. I'd love to know how to reset the counter.

hold out for the mirror screen protector. i had one for my omnia and they are amazing. easy to install and virtually scratch proof.

Try this little file. It worked when I had an unread SMS I couldn't get rid of.

Use link 2.
I have noticed the same thing too. It seems like the SMS messenger via Touch Flo is totally updated from from the Touch Pro 2 and I'd have to say I think it's been "down"-dated.

I had the same SMS showing 1 issue and was able to resolve it. I posted what worked for me here:

Yep I've posted that little tool as well, and it has worked for me in the past as well.
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.
I looked and searched (a few forums also) and cant find an answer. I have a TMOUS HD2 with their new ROM freshly installed (yesterday) and when I get a text message it will show the message but the only option I have is to "Hide" it. I tried clicking on it and everywhere else but it wont open the message unless I go to "Messages" so is there a reg edit I can do to get it to show "open" instead of hide...Thx...Tj
P.S. I would rather not install any programs but would like to work with what the phone has.
Hmm am I the only one with this problem?
no this isn't exactly a problem. This is a feature that is on the phone where if your at your lock screen or your display screen iss hut off thats what shows when you get to the lock screen. It's so you can view your text and who it's from before you unlock your phone and go into their threaded message.
I'm sure there is a way to disable it via reg but not sure.

OK but I do not have the screen locked. I can see the message and who its from but to open or reply I have to go to messages because the only option is to "hide" it...Tj
as with all things it can glitch. if you have your lock screen disabled but then you hit your right button for end call to turn off the display then touch another button to bring it back it could possible bring that up. I will see if I can find someone that knows the answer.

Why can i never just get a cool phone and it just WORK?!?!
So i have the Note,and it is buggy as all hell.
The typing is about as accurate as my old HTC Touch HD.
When i click on the search forum tab the text entry screen pops up, i type 1 letter then the text entry screen just vanishes.
I was trying to set up an order for broadband on the phone and when i try to center the chat screen so i can type it keeps vanishing half way off of the screen and wont center
when chatting with another company their text would show but my entry window would not.
And WHY is this keyboard soooooo un-accurate. i never had issues with my iPhone text entry and the buttons were no where near this large. Am i typing too fast?
any suggestions?
thanks

I personaly don`t have that issue. Try going in recovery and clear the cache and reboot. If that doesn`t help do a factory reset (*2767*3855#), backup your files first!. If that doesn`t help reflash the rom of your country/region with Odin.

Firstly, this is in the wrong section. Secondly, if you cant ask a question in a civilised manner. Then Dont!
