After about a week with the TmoUS HD2 I've decided to disable the Sense UI and run with a today screen with only date/calendar/messaging, however the messaging no longer includes the SMS/MMS only my email accounts (which is unlike my old Tilt and recently replaced TP2). Is there any way to move SMS/MMS back under the "messaging" umbrella or add as an item to a basic today screen?
yes i too would like to use the default wm6.5 today screen, but its not setup and very plain. no clock no calender and such..
is there a htc today tweak that was like the earlier wm6.1?

I just switched over the sense 2.5, I did it to get the better imo people, and calendar tabs, and it finally had landscape support. Unfortunately I didn't realize the messaging tab was so slow when you have a large number of txt messages. I tried zenyee's app which sort of works, I have messaging available through the mail link, but the notification bar jumps to the sense messaging, which lags, and doesn't always show the most current message.
I also can't seem to get the favpeople back up to work either, it won't back up the right number of favorites and seems to fail at restoring them at all. Anyone get these tweaks working or found another work around for them?
anyone got any ideas how to start fixing this?
i use deepshining v8 and i got this to work, but one issue i have now is that my receiving texts are an hour slow
anyone help??
i got it working
to get mms and sms working all i did was install the zenyee diasble htc messaging cab and the dega sense 2.1 messaging...
there is a cab that has both of these together...then i used the mms fix for 2.1 and everything is working properly and fast.
hope this works for you
sms and mms both work, the problem is what is handling them. and for the most part wm client is handling them except in terms of the htc notification bar which sends it over to the htc messaging client. which while a little less laggy with the other patch you mentioned seems to put the time stamp over the bottom half of the message making it illegible.
i've been having problems with my received texts are an hour slow and the notifications no longer show up it just vibrates. the mms also does not work for me
i use the wm messaging client and i dont get the timestamps that you all are taking about. i took out the messaging tab and made the left softkey messaging which opens the wm client directly.
Using Rhodium_AF any ROM version is working flawless with zenyee.
Hi all, well last night i decided to update to 1.66. (previously on 1.48 wwe)
So firstly created a backup via spb backup and then installed the update (via goldcard method)
I then restored my settings via spb backup. All seems to be fine apart from my htc messaging. The front screen is fine but when i select "all messages" (bottom left of screen) the next screen has absolute massive font and is overlapping and basically unreadable. Its also the same when i enter a message in conversation mode.
I have checked my standard text size in settings but its set to small and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to resolve this problem.
All other menus etc are fine. Its just the htc messaging. I dont know if the problem has arised from my spb backup or the actual rom update.
Hi, I got the same problem tonight when I installed 1.66, I can´t figure out how to make it right again. Have you had any luck?
/Hans
I have the same problem on 1.43 WWE it just happened, hadnt changed any s/w, anyone got an idea how to fix it
i had the same problem the solution i used is only to backup e-mail and contacts and not the sms messages. it simply ****s up everything
same problem here.
after going from dutty v1.5 to 1.8 and restoring from spb backup, the size and font are totally different than before and there is no way to make it smaller.
Threaded Messaging not in order
Hey guys, i just purchased my HD2, and i also have problems with the threaded messaging, it is on 1.66 by stock and in the threaded messaging displayed in sense, all the messages sent by 'me' is displayed at the top regardless whether the message is a reply or sent before. And all the messages of the receipient's is listed below, this is really irritating, have you ever encountered this? Any ways to go about solving it? 1st day of purchase and i get it, not to mention the shaky screen when i hold on to select text or crop images. Pissed!
Would appreciate your help guys, thanks!
i have the same problem too. is there any way to fix the front size being so big??
The feature set of HTC messaging 1.5 is very good.
However, one can see a lag while you are typing as it tries to load the messages in the background.
Would it not be better if the HTC messaging app only loaded the last 10 or so messages and if one wanted to scroll beyond that, the app can load another 10/20 upon demand. Essentially work like the HTC Album. No need to load all the fking msgs in memory.
Can somebody develop a hack to do that? or pass that message on to HTC?
+1 !!!
Just like on previous version [WinMo 6.1] where SMS where sort per pages [10 per pages], so it only loades the last 10.
Hi
I generally use Microsoft Myphone and Sprite Backup and sometimes PIM Backup for backups. I have had UK Vodafone HTC windows mobile phones for some years.
I have been trying to restore data from the original Touch Pro to the HD2 and Touch Pro 2. After restoring I had some problems with the Call History on the Touch Pro 2. This was solved after I used Myphone instead of Sprite Backup for the backup and restore.
There seems to be much worse problems transferring data to the HD2:
1. I have quite a large archive of SMS messages on the Vodafone Touch Pro. About 2.5K in total. I have tried restoring the messages to the HD2 using Sprite and Myphone. At the bottom of HTC Sense threaded message there is an area for composing a new message. In the compose message area you see text from an old message. Before you can send a message you have to delete the text in the compose area. I have installed the latest SMS update. Did not help with this particular issue. I think the SMS update helped with some of the other SMS issues. These messages seem to have restored fine on the Touch Pro 2.
2. A more minor problem is that there are some strange characters in the notes sections in the restored contacts on the HD2. Looking at the same contacts on the Myphone site there appears to be no problems with these contacts. Again, the contacts seem to have restored fine on the HD2. Overall, even though it is very slow it seems to be better to restore using Myphone rather than Sprite.
I have tried hard reset on the HD2 a number of times. I think I have all the latest updates that are relevant. I have even had a replacement phone. I still have this strange SMS problem. I suspect that the problem is due to HTC Sense compatibility issues. The HTC Touch Pro WM6.1 has HTC TouchFLO 3D.
BTW, I have tried PIM Backup as well. However, it does not appear to work properly on the Vodafone Touch Pro for some reason.
Does anybody have any ideas on this? I have quite a bit of experience of Windows Mobile phones. I have also had the Vodafone version of the the HTC Universal and Tytn II.
All the best.

see this thread by yours truly
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=693831
executive summary: if you are coming from another WM phone to the HD2 and you have a ton of messages (like myself) and would like to restore them and continue building your repository of messages on a STOCK HD2, then you'll run into issues as you described.
moreover, the HTC messaging client shipped with STOCK HD2s is rubbish when it comes to handling more than a few sms messages stored per contact.
the regular windows mobile sms client (that you and i are used to from our kaisers and pre-HD2 devices) is great! its so good that the top chefs (such as NRGZ of the "energy" ROM series) has completely done away with the HTC messaging client. if you read my thread, you will also notice that restoring to the HD2 with the HTC messaging client has repercussions and adverse impacts on your ability to take your messages repository to OTHER WM phones if you choose to do so later on.
SMS Problems with HD2
Hi
Thanks for your response. I have already seen your thread on this issue which was very useful.
It seems that the only solution is to use WM6.5 for SMS instead of HTC Sense on the HD2. I will use the Touch Pro 2 for work. The HD2 will be used when I need a phone with a bigger screen, etc. The Touch Pro 2 processor is slower. However it has a keyboard and is overall better for business use. A good alternative to a keyboard does not exist!
Vodafone has been quite helpful in providing replacement phones. However neither Vodafone nor HTC seem to want to admit that there is a problem with the HD2.
Thanks.

cool! if your primary phone is going to remain the TP2, then i strongly suggest playing around with a custom ROM on your HD2 (i recommend NRGZ's energy ROM).
this way, you will have a speedy and clean HD2 with properly integrated NATIVE messaging client and all of its benefits. play around with it and maybe you'll find you can shift to the HD2 for regular/business use. i came from a tytn2 (kaiser) after 2 years of *****in' use and it took me a while to get used to the lack of a hardware keyboard on the HD2. that said, i am now completely accustomed to the HD2's onscreen keyboard and i can type nearly as fast and nearly as accurately on it now as i could on the kaiser's hardware keyboard. still, a hardware keyboard is a hardware keyboard and i can't argue with that!
long story short, if messaging and lack of hardware keyboard is all that stands in your way of 100% HD2 use, then a custom ROM should kill the messaging issue completely and some practice with the on screen keyboard will alleviate the keyboard issues. good luck!
Having used pretty much every home screen replacement going, I've now settled on plain on Titanium. With the right plugins it works really well and is light on resources.
However, I'm using HTC Messaging 1.8 (Build 2019.3733) and the default Titanium text plugin doesn't show a count for new messages and doesn't display any message content as it does when using the default WM messaging.
I like HTC messaging but I'd like to be able to see a count on Titanium and read the first couple of lines if possible, without having to open the full client every time.
Does anyone know a fix for this (presumably registry) or can anyone point me in the direction of a replacement Text plugin that supports the HTC client?
Thanks
