Hi -
I would like to know if there is some application to control/count the SMS sent. This is important because I can now when I will pass my sms package.
thank you
+1 for that
I know that there are a couple of app that count the minute talked, but I dont remember the name of these app. Maybe these app could have this function also.
regards
I found this app.
you can also use HomeScreen PlusPlus
I didn't find the option to view contacts list from Messaging, Email, or Gmail apps that came with X10. So, it is getting frustrating to send message to multiple users as I now need to type few characters from each person's name to bring their contact information. The problem is when I have several people to send the message I tend to forgot who I already selected.
My question is, is this an Android 1.6 lack of feature or X10? For messaging I downloaded Handcent SMS which has the feature to select contacts from list like any dumb phone has. I am surprised several little and basic features like these are missing in X10.
I hate using apps that don't blend well with the nice Bluish interface of X10. So, apps like Handcent SMS spoil the rich experience of X10 but I have no choice but to use as selecting multiple users is very important.
yeah a little annoying I agree, but you can totally customize the look of Handcent you know right?? Just use backgrounds, colours, and fonts that match the blue SE Timescape theme.

I only see Sense or iPhone theme on Handcent SMS. Font's I can select System Fonts. I am trying to get the same dark blue background like in the default SE Messaging app.

I'd say try to set the backgrounds in Handcent to the blue SE ones included on the phone, like either of the two in "Wallpaper Gallery" you can choose when you want to set your Wallpaper. I'm not sure where exactly they're located on the file system, I just briefly looked and couldn't find them, but maybe someone else knows or maybe it's possible to download them online somewhere??
Furthermore, there's 4 different font packages available for Handcent on the marketplace, I'm sure you could find a font similar enough to the default one of the SE messaging app, then set all font colours to white and you're golden. Please post your results and if you happen to find where those SE Wallpapers are located, thanks

Thanks. Got it all setup to close very close in theme to SE's blue. I had to download the wallpaper from online as I couldn't locate the one sitting somewhere in the system folders.

Is there a problem with selecting more than one contact? I mean, I can send one text to different people using the default messaging app. Just compose a new text and write a couple of letters that the contact starts with then select it and write a couple of letters for your next contact. Works perfectly for me!

I have contacts with multiple numbers (home, work...etc). It seems there is no way to select the alternative numbers using the default messaging app.

That's the only way possible. But it would have been better if showed the contact list with a "check box". That is how it is on most phones and messaging apps. Having to type the first two characters is not going to be easy when trying to send message to several contacts as you need to remember who you already entered plus the worst part is if one of your contact has two mobile phones and the second is listed as "Other" number, it will never show up by entering couple of characters. You have to open that contact from Address Book and choose that number to send message.

Yes. This is a pain as one of my friend carried two cellphones. One work cell and one personal which he carries mostly on weekends. I can't chose his personal number from Messaging app. I have to open the contact and choose the number to send message.
I hope SE engineers are reading this forum. They really need to implement lot of these simple easy changes in their next update.

Hey guys, I had previously stored my 5000+ sms messages from my XperiaX10 into my Gmail account... After I bought the Atrix4G, when I restored these messages, I saw that just some part of them were restored because there is a limitation of SMS's per conversation in Android 2.2!
Is there ANY way for me to restore ALL my messages back to my phone? Any way to remove that SMS limitation they put (which is 1000 per contact I believe)? If it's through an application (through rooting the phone, anything I can do...?)
Thanks a bunch!
Try the handcent text messaging app. Its free plus will give you a TON of extra features including unlimited inbox limit.

hmm I liked the idea, buuuut I believe Handcent syncs directly from the Messaging App so if the Messaging app doesn't get the restored messages from Gmail, I'm guessing Handcent wouldn't either? It bugged the only time I tried... I could try again, but I don't really know what I'm talking about hehe...
And I've never really used Handcent, how does it work when you receive a message? Do you get 2 notifications? Is it possible to set Handcent as the default messaging app? How does it work?

With 5000+ messages, wouldn't you rather leave them in Gmail? At least you could use the search feature in there
Yea wouldn't it be better to save that in an archive then build it again with another app now? Of course I don't know how you could import them if the SMS applications don't support it but....

It just doesn't make sense to have 5000 text messages in that format. That's a lot of scrolling if you are trying to find a specific text message, whereas, in the Gmail app you can use keywords, such as the contact's name and whatever you were talking about and then BAM, there it is.
I've asked multiple people about this and haven't been able to find the answer. Everytime I get an email I get two notifications one with the yahoo icon and then the red one with the @ sign. I go under accounts and under motoblur accounts it shows the @ icon and shows my email address. I use yahoo. When I press on that it doesn't let me change the username but let's me put in a password yet I can't remove that account. Basically, how do I stop from getting double notifications
Settings- data manager- data delivey- email and corprate sync- notifications...
Uncheck notifications.
That will get rid of the red one with [email protected] sign.
(Thanks are welcome if that fixed it for you. )
Ill get back with you to let you know how that worked
Need hotmail notifications
I'm also having an email notifications issue. It's a little different but I don't think it needs it own thread.
I use hotmail instead of Gmail, but my launcher pro mail icon won't show the number of emails. It works fine for text messages, just not my hotmail. I am getting a notification on my top bar, I just want to be able to quickly see the number. I'm really new to Android so it's probably an easy fix that I am just overlooking.

What is your default email set as? Yahoo or yahoo!

I use gmail..
I had a similar problem, where I kept getting dual notifications. I fixed it by uninstalling the beautiful widgets addon pack.

Hm interesting because I do have that addon installed? Now what exactly were your problems? Would you get the y! And the @ notification each time you got emails?
I'm GreyBlured!
Sorry it took so long for me to post. When I had the beautiful Widgets pack, I would get double notifications for everything, email and text. The fact that you have the y! means that its a yahoo email. So either it's the Widgets or you may have a yahoo email app that's also notifying you.
