Ok guys, I've searched and dont see this question or suggestion so please dont flame me.
Why is it possible to add a smiley from a new MMS message but not with SMS?
I use Smiley SMS but the smiley icons are very small.
Surely it's a registry hack to allow default compose to be MMS form.
Am I being stupid?
I think you're mixing things up.
MMS are MultiMedia Messages, which can contain large text and attachments (images, video, sound, etc).
SMS are text-only, so you can't put images in those. What SmileySMS does is probably the same thing as SMSChat: interprets the sms's you receive and replaces ": )" (for instance) with a smiley image stored in your device.
When you add a smiley to your message and send it, the other guy won't see a smiley, but ": )", unless he views it with your program too.
So, no, you can't registry-hack it to display images
?
Multimedia Messaging
Short Message Service
Actualy i dont get what your asking but the only simileys you can send via ems but i dont know if windows moblie.
other than that you can send the usual ;-) :-( :-D .
As said already, SMS & MMS are two different types of messages. Only the "smiley" you type goes through as text to the recipient, while SmileySMS recognizes it as an image for you to see.
I understand the differences.
What I was questioning is whether it be possible that the sms compose form be similar to MMS. So if you selected a smiley, it would send "" etc etc
Sony Ericsson and Samsung phones allow you to send SMS messages with animated smileys. It's a shortfall of WM that it doesnt give a better messaging experience.
Thanks for your input guys !!

Yeah, but you'll never really send the smiley, so your will be sent out as : D.
But instead of typing the text equivalent, I'd like to see the smiley and select it, therefore the abbreviation is automatically insterted into message - just as the MMS form does
Surely the Masterchefs can do a hack which can use the MMS form but sends as SMS
I don't know what type of device you have, but if it has a keyboard, then you might try Smilies Input Panel .
Keyboard for text and numbers, and SIP for smilies...
You can even edit it, make sure to scroll down to the bottom of the page to see how..

i understand what u mean, but the MMS portion sends the graphic (i think) it doesnt inerpret ; - ) and change it to
smilieysms is a plugin for sms, which intercepts the text and uses its own display model to replace ; - ) with
so im guessing, no to use MMS editor, as in both instances it will place the graphic in the text body, and also on received messages, display the received graphic, not ; - ) replaced with
phew!

Nope, the MMS just inserts ascii characters into the text portion of the MMS, try it and see for yourself.
no flaming but please ask questions in the QUESTIONS Thread.
I have the original ROM on my HD but have several problems with the threaded messaging...
1. while in the threaded messaging screen if a reply is made the text icon continues to be displayed or it is not recognised a reply has been made and on the today screen (touchFlo and normal today screen) still shows as text still not read.
2. after several text messages and returning to the threaded messaging screen it returns to old texts and I have to scroll down by pressing "newer" to get to the last text.
Has anyone else had this problem?
if you dont like threaded msg, then install hd tweak and revert back to the classical way of viewing text.
as for the icon that u have an unread msg, it's usually right, u probably have a text that is not read, look down your list, if there's no unread text, then while in msg, click on inbox, and from the drop down menu, make sure that u have no unread msgs in any other inboxes u might have.
good luck
I actually prefer threaded messaging and you misunderstand the problem I'm describing. Obviously in threaded messaging the messages are one after the other and there is no option of going into individual messages. The problem is that once a reply is made the text icon should disappear but it does not.
hi everyone...
i was wondering if theres some way to get my text messages by sequence, cuz if you and the one you are texting with have just 1 minute time diversity all the messages sort wrong ...

You had to infect this thread too huh?
for God's sake if you really don't have anything useful to say just don't say anything at all ok?
edit:
@ the OP: some say hiding SIM contacts from htc messaging software solves this :-? (maybe by deleting all SIM contacts)
SMS settings -> Traditional Mode
Every MMS message I try to attach a picture or video to sends it as a stupid slide-show. It just does make that much sense (no pun intended). Is there a workaround or fix for this, its just seems like a crappy way to go about sending a MMS message. Chomp and Handcent don't do it that way but I dont like how the icons dont show the unread SMS count just a notification.
I apologize in advance if this has already been discussed but this is my Rant for the day!
I noticed that occurs when someone adds text in addition to the picture. Also handcent does show number of messages under the icon if you put the widget icon on your screen as opposed to the app icon.
Hey - Thanks for the heads up on Handcent.
I can't find a way to remove the weird smiley when you send a text like "" .. That put a smiley with an android face that UGLY as hell !
Is there a way to change that ? Keeping the stock sms app of course, i don't want Go SMS or Handcent ...
