Reducing sms marked as read time - HD2 General

How can I reduce the time that it takes to register my SMS messages as read? Some of my messages are a word or two long and in the time it takes me to read them the phone is still displaying them as new messages as I haven't had them open for the length of time required to register them as read. Any ideas?

i'm sure its something that we can play with in the registry... but i rather leave that in more "capable" hands... lol
but as for now.. i haven't seen anything on our forums come up along those lines... although i do admit that i would also be interested in reducing the time as well... all i really need is 1 sec... i dislike having to wait there on the messaging tab, until the notification goes away....

+1
I'd love something like this. I hate that I get a text that says "yes" and I have to stare at that screen for about 5 seconds for it to be marked as read.

Me too...wouldn't it be a registry change or something within Manila?

bump for this issue. Anyone more knowledgeable have any solution to this?

lets try again. Im sure lots of people know if this is something that takes 2 seconds to change or if it would be tough.

most annoying bit is when ya get a few msgs and ya flck thru em that fast that theres always one that stays "unread" and ya have to open all msgs to find it or else hover over all the ones uv just read till the 1 goes away... vote 1 from me to sort this out, it should go as soon as the text has landed on the screen, and same with emails if anyone can sort that one too lol

+1 from me too! For SMS And Emails too

HKLM/Software/Jataayu/Messaging
MSFTUnreadCountFlag = 5
Mine is set to 5 (seconds) changing that to a lower value will work
good luck

i need a reg editor for that dont i, can you link me up to a good one?

i use this
im sure there are better looking apps out there but this one is small and works good imo
i changed it to 1 and can confirm it works after a soft reset

Confirmed! Works even without a soft reset! Any possibility of finding a solution for email as well?

use the registry editor to confirm the value has changed. Sometimes, a registry edid might not be saved

nah still no joy, its definatly changed the value tho. hmmm

Doesn't work for me either.
I'm on Artemis V14.

Change SMS Read time??

Hi all
Just wondering if anyone knows of a program that makes an SMS read faster? I get plenty of sms' from work and basically just want to ignore them and make then read... but TF3D makes you stay on them for about 5sec before it changes it from unread to read... maybe a registry setting?
Thanks
oh ya I am having the same problem also. Any fix for this?
yeah, this was frustrating me today too, i could not figure out wich txt was the 1 bubble.
anyone? please
surely its just a registry setting...
tf3d read time-out.... or something...

This is relevant to my interests
Any1 got this yet. It winds me up
its a manila issue. i dontthink its in the registry.
if u use the WM sms app rather then the manila tab it goes to read as soon as you look at it. no 5 sec delay.
i've sent a PM to D-MAN, hopefully he can help
nothing yet.. dang
let hope for the best man... =)
hey all, still nothing on this, BUT i've posted a question for Swfit on his rom thread.. maybe something will come out of it
Still no fix for this yet? I woulda thought by now, we coulda found this issue/setting.
I would also really like to know being checking all registry values and i can find nothing. The 5 second is really irritating.
I have been looking on other forums and have got nothing.
I assumed that it would be an easy task but alas.
I need this app too
If you tap 'all messages' you go into your SMS inbox - from there it's really easy to just mark them all as read.
They also go from Un-read to Read straight away if you open from there ans swipe message to message...
I know it's not realy what you're asking for, but if you get so many messages, I would think it's the best way, as you can view 10 or so at once with a preview...

Incoming SMS

Hello all, Just wondered, on my Dash, when I got incoming SMS the screen will tunr on and let me see the msg for a while, then go to idle again. on the Snap, its not. I only hear the sound and thats it... any way to change it?

also im sure the new rom being cooked by ookba will have a few new added surprises

Yea, it's something under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power. I just cannot recall what. Carefully poke around in there or do some searching about that key and SMS. Good luck!
What can I say, I love this forum!
looking forward, and every day for your new cooked rom
There is an app called SMS Bubble which will allow this.
I have SMS bubble installed but there is no option for that, or at least I didn't find it...
I was also trying to look at the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power
but cant figure out which one I need

waiting for your ROM, bro

is there a way to speed up SMS thread reading in HD2?

i dun usually delete SMS in my HD2(esp those from my gf), so every time i want to write or reply SMS to others, i click on a thread and wait for like 4-5 secs till the phone "reads" all the SMS in that thread, then i can tap the screen for input keyboard to pop up and start typing.
this is annoying, anyway to prevent this from happening or at least speed up the "reading"??
Thx!!
its seems that we all are having the same problme and there is no solution for it just yet other than using the traditional mode.
i really hope HTC will come up with a solution atleast show the last 10 sms like the older version.
YOU **** P£"!$£"!$ off and go read the forum there is a work around fix if ur willing to go search for it!

argh...well...classic views are kinda messy for me, besides i have to tap 2 more times in order to reply...
No, there's no fix for the lag.
There's a fix for the sending issue, but its a 50/50 that it works according to all the ppl who posted in those threads.
Meanwhile, when you are going to reply on an SMS, press the "Send"-button when the SMS-list is being populated and then "Cancel" and voila - its done.

wow that really makes a difference~thx man~~well hopefully HTC can fix this lag~~
Yup.. I agree. its slow in this sense.. ut I usually do a backup using the windows myphone app and just delete the messages. in this way, the messages is not lost.
You can try it too.

SMS/texts in wrong order if sent/received with same time/date

is there a fix for this? tried searching but couldn't find anything, just a lot of threads about the delay to reply which works slightly better due to new fix released today
anyway, in conversation mode, if I reply quickly back to a text message within the same minute then it goes before the text I'm replying to instead of after it!
not exactly good if you send quick texts often as the conversation looks a mess!
thanks
Hi,
Try installing the latest hotfix for SMS. They've sorted out the little bugs in texting. You can download it from: http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=all
Hope this helps!

I'd already installed the update earlier today and it's still there . Surely it doesn't just look at hour:min in the text message details and list them. Wouldn't it work better if they also date/stamp (including seconds) the text when it's received so it will work OK in conversation mode?
try it yourself and send a text to yourself and when you get it, reply straight away and it will put the 2nd sent text before the text you received in the 1st place!
This happened to me where all my Texts were at the top of the conversation and all my friend's replied were at the bottom. Is this the same problem you had? I solved it by changing the message type to unthreaded in settings.
i have same issue .. my gf replies straight away and it appears she answered my question before i asked it .. its very annoying
Took me a LOT of searching when I had the same problem, but this fixed it for me:
Edit the following registry key...
HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\
add a DWORD key "TrustTimeZoneField" and give it a value of "0"
No more time zone issues. This is caused by your operator I think sending the wrong time to the phone...
SOURCE: http://www.mattgibson.ca/2008/04/13...gsm3g-windows-mobile-56-smartphonespocketpcs/
this change only solve if u r in diff timezone.
but we are both in same timezone.... but sms timestamp is not basic on our mobile time setting is basic on their one

I'd faced this issue too. The way I could fix it was set the Time of my HD2 about 2-3 Mins forward than the current time. That solved the SMS order issue.
Actually the issue seems to be due to the Timestamp of the SMS which is given by the Mobile Operator being a bit ahead than the time on your HTC Device.
Did you try it? Was happening in the same time zone with me and this solved it.

that's no fix as the problem is then reversed as then incoming texts go before the ones you've sent out . I found that out straight away as I normally put my phone fast anyway but then got incoming texts going before my initial texts! Even just 1 minute ahead doesn't work as texts sent/received within that minute get mixed up!
my G1 used to time stamp them as they came in with the time of the handset, not time sent or network time. Good for conversation on G1 as it got them in the right order but it had it's flaw. The problem being you didn't know when it had actually been sent to you if your phone had been off for any amount of time as it simply time stamped when received when you'd switched your phone back on!
whoever tested the SMS feature of this phone obviously didn't do a good job at all strange that such a great feature handset trips up on one of the most used features that most other handsets work perfectly fine with
There's still no fix for this?

its annoying that little bugs like this have not been addressed by HTC
same issue here
i am wondering when will HTC put a fix to this fundamental problem on a core function such as SMS. Seriously, the HTC messaging is nice, but with the lag and timestamp issue, it makes HTC seem like they're trying too hard and not focusing on making the phone work well first than look nice. I am frustrated as hell too, but trips to the service centre only gave me answers like "wait for a software release/upgrade", i am wondering whether do you receive any problems with the touch screen? the screen actually jitters and shakes up and down even when your finger is still frequently. i have changed the main board 2 times already and it happens still.
Btw, my set's from singapore.
Fix made! Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6116612

SMS Sent. . . . :-S

Hey all
Im A UK T-mobile user and after the rom update 1.72 everytime I send a sms I get a very enoying sms sent message. . .
is there anyway to stop this . . . .I really hate it
go to Messages> Menu>Settings>Options> Uncheck request delivery report under sms
don't think the OP is taling about an SMS delivery report, its like a notification that stays in your taskbar, i want to keep this there, but for it to disappear after x seconds (say 3)
anyone have any ideas?
yeah thats what I mean the .. and you have to delete it from there. . .its really enoying !!!!
anyone have a solution to make it not appear or yess even stay for a few seconds .. .
i've pretty amateur when it comes to registry and had a quick look but couldnt find anything.
if there is any solutions i'd love to know, 3 seconds will be great to know that the message has sent, without me having to go and dismiss it myself
bump.... can anyone help?
I'm with you on this one! Using the new Vodafone rom - I get the same! Please help.. (I've tried turning off the notifications but no help!)
Same here, it's annoying as anything!
Nobody have a quick fix?
Is there an option to turn it off by going to:
Start/Settings/Menu/All settings/Sounds and Notifications/Notifications then selecting an option from the drop down list and making any changes?
I'm still on the original TMobile Rom so have not tried this on 1.72. If this option isn't in the new Rom I'd be interested to know of another fix before I upgrade myself.
good idea happy snapper but just had a look and if you select 'display on screen' then you can click ok and it disappears, as in the stock rom.
great solution mate and btw, i would upgrade if i were you, it makes so much difference that the stock t-mobile rom
hi jonyid
glad that helped, have you seen this?
forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6266385&postcount=126
i've hesitated installing the new rom as i must be one of the few people who so far has had no problems with the stock rom (2 months!) and thats throwing every bit of wm software i've got at it. i will give it a go on my next free sunday morning though
