I could not find a topic of this? if u do please place below.
My question is
Is there any software for the wizard, who counts the total sms that were sended.
I found one called calltime app, but it's in german.
i'd rather prefer english
someone?

Asked something very similar and didnt really get that far. Thought it would have been a very popular type of program to have. I even thought you would maybe be able to have a counter on your today screen of how many minitues and texts you had left for that month.
Would have been cool.
That's probably dktoday. It counts your sms's send, used minutes today & this (user adjustable month). Shows current act.operator & turns off screen when pressed, switches on BT on incoming call. Switches BT when BT icon is pressed. & it shows missed calls today.
Sounds good, so if anyone does come accross an english version Id like to know about it

Thats a bit harsh from the posts above it implied only a foriegn one was available.
& that's the prob. with writing in a foreign language. I couldn't find a emoticon expressing my tone. So no hard feelings pls.
Only the first post mentioned german, the rest English I guess. Hope you like dktoday I certainly do.
lol...no probs. Just put it on looks like just what i need and seems to work a treat!
EDIT : SMS counter doesnt seem to be working though.
I don't send a lot of sms's, but belief mine are counted on receiving the delivery notification & that's no good indeed. Maybe you can contact the developer about it.
I heard that the newest version of phonealarm is counting SMS. But there is one problem - it just counts the number of messages, not the number of SMS sent - in case you send messages longer 160 chars (which will be sent in multiple SMS) the counter won't be reliable... :?
Is there any add on for the Exec that will allow me to have a different notification sound for a Delivery Confirmation text (marked as from System Administrator on Vodafone).
I like to get a confirmation back but I only want a very short sound for it, not the normal notify sound I get with a normal text message!
Any ideas?

Don't know if this will work - but I noticed the other day that you can assign ringtones to specific contacts (I think) - maybe you could set up the SysAdmin as a contact with a short ringtone - I don't know if that would work for texts. (I've not tried it at all).
No, this only works for Ringtones, not Notifications from text messages.
where are all the default sounds for text notifications kept?
Mortring does the job. Search in the google for it. I'm using and an can assigne diferent rings for instance for notifications.
Best regards,

Ive heard of Mortring, but can you tell me if it will allow a ringtone based not on a number but on a named string, as the test I get back for delivery confirmation doesnt have a number associated with it, it has the words "System Administrator" on it, no number at all.
Well i think not, because the one thing the app can do is to apply a ringtone to an unidentified contact, contact with no categories defined, by categories. The same for text messages.
So basically it functions using the number and the string used by the appz is the number.
Here is the topic made by the author of the program and you can ask him.

Greetings,
Aprt
Thank you for that, im greatful
Thought I'd tag on this thread.
I have just got two phones, on each for me and the good lady. She wants to know if there is a way of it reminding her that she has a text - currently the phone makes a noise once and then unless you open it up to check, you have no idea if you have a text.
Her old phone used to make a tone every few minutes if she had a text.
I can't see any settings in the phone to do this. Are there any apps out there that would fit the bill ?
Any advice greatfully received.

I don't know any apps, but you can go to Start>Settings>Personal> Sound and Notifications>Notifications>New Text Messages and check the "Flash light for NO LIMIT". This will ensure if you receive any text msgs that the indicator light will flash orange if you have any text message and it will only disappear after you dismiss or read it.

Phone Alarm from http://www.pocketmax.net/ will do this, and a lot more besides.
As for my problem, Mortring doesnt seem WM5 compatible - Oh well

Ok, maybe this aint completely a pure Xperia Issue, more a WM6.1 Issue. But maybe the solution might be? .. if there is any
I'm a guy that like to get Delivery Notification on my text messages,
not to be confused with Sent noticed, which I find kinda useless, you receive a error msg if the SMS isnt sent anyhow.
But back to the Issue, SMS Delivery Notification.
As it is, you send your SMS and then get a NEW SMS telling you that your SMS was delivered.
(And it dont even bother matching the number to your addressbook, wtf?)
How I want it to work, and had several cellphones that did, is to just flag your sent SMS as delivered.
Does someone share my frustration? or am I just a whining sob?
And does anyone have a solution to this highly annoying(according to me) problem?
Some kinda SMS client for Windows Mobile, or for the Xperia?
The Sent Notification isn't an issue
I don't like it, but I know how to turn it off.
--------
What I would like... is to have the Delivery Notification /Report,
not as a separate "sms" that dont match against your address book.
But as a "green flag" or something that indicate that your SMS has been delieverd.
Had this feature on my earlier devices, then the SMS-icon was a envelope(as it is now)
and to see that it was sent you saw a "stamp-icon" and when it was delivered it was a
green check flag i the corner of the envelope. Hope you understand me now
I feel your pain.... then I installed advance config and disable the delivery notification... since then, that I am a happy man

I have looked at this prog too, not used it thou ... It might be a good idea, but still dont understand why they didnt just flag you excisting SMS instead of creating a separate "reporting SMS", especially useless when it dont match the number with you addressbook, or it just me that have stopped memorize ppl:s numbers?

Okey I don't know if this is your answer but I've got a swe xperia as well.
I can write my way in swe and translate to eng but
in messages view, press meny -- verktyg -- alternativ -- SMS/MMS (i listan) -- Begär leveransmeddelanden
(menu -- tools -- alternatives -- SMS/MMS (from the list) -- Demand report on delivery)
This is deliveryreport and it works for me...
I shut off "Message Sent" xith Xperia Tweak from cliffords.

What network are you on? I know some carriers don't support the delivery notification feature, but on O2 in the UK if you add *0# to the beginning of your message it will send you an SMS back when it's been delivered.. works for me (and *0# are all conveniently placed next to each other on the X1 keyboard, how nice!)
Hehe... I use TELE2 ... and I DO get a Delivery notification /report.
I just dont want it as a separate SMS! or as it say a msg from "System Administator" telling me my SMS has been delivered.
if you read the post I have posted above, I try to explain this a few times.
I do appreciate all you guys trying to help thou!
Cheers!
Same here - Again, the problem is NOT that the delivery notification itself annoys us, we know how to turn it off or on. The annoying part is just the way of presenting the notification. All other phones I had so far (as a matter of fact only Nokias) had a special way of treating the incoming delivery notification, they did not display the notification like a normal text message, but rather marked the corresponding sent text message as "delivered". If I turn on the delivery reports on the X1, I get a new text message for every one I sent. That is stupid
What we are looking for is a way of making Windows Mobile 6.1 read the incoming delivery reports and mark the corresponding sent text messages. Or at least they should not cause the X1 to notify us as the same way a normal text message does (i.e. same sound, same message dialog, etc...). I want to know that a message has been delivered without first having to believe "I got a text message" and then seeing that it's only a delivery report...
Yep, I'm looking for a solution to this issue too. Having recently bought an HTC Touch HD, this is one thing that I think my old Sony Ericsson K610i handled much better.
Would be great to find some tweak that makes the phone treat delivery reports as a status change of the sent text message (sms), rather than as a separate message altogether.
So what you're trying to say is:
Now: - You get a seperate sms saying the message has been delivered.
What you want: - The message in the "sent" folder changes icon when delivered.
Is there a solution for this that anyone knows of?
Thanks,

Another thing with the delivery report. I once got one when my ringtones were turned off, but the sound came anyway. So my theory is that its recognized as a system message, not a SMS. System voulme was still activated. Anyone noticed that too?

Nope, sorry, I'm not much of a win-mobile-developer... However, I did find a small app that actually fulfills my wishes somewhat. It's not perfect, but it's better than the default delivery reports...
Have a look at this site and have a go at SMS Delivery Recipt Fix. The author is active here on the forum, so you can find lots of info on this app in several threads (after all, that's how I found it). I just tried it on my phone (HTC Touch HD running Win Mobile 6.1) and it works brilliantly. The status message is still delivered as a separate sms, but now it pops up in a bubble, and the option to delete it is right there with it. In my opinion, that's a lot better than having to go into the inbox, find the report, and delete it from there. I think I'll stick with this solution.
That bubble with the "delete" option is how it works for me..but this just came with win 6.1, nothing special installed for that feature. Still it would be good to see wich contact is reported about.
But as i read that "fix" is meant to also show the contacts name, i will try that.

Yes, I do feel a bit stupid here, but I realised later that the bubble popup notification is a built-in function of WinMo 6.1... I just hadn't properly understood how to enable it, that only became clear to me once I had installed the sms fix. But, the fix still does a nice thing, i.e. link the displayed number to a name, which looks a lot better.
Yes but from the screenshot is moves the delete link from onscreen to menu / delete..that would be annoying again. Is that right?

Not at all. Look at the screenshots again. The one with a menu is the "new message" notification... There you have more options like "call sender", "delete message", and so on. The first screenshot shows how the delivery report is displayed, and this comes with two on-screen options: dismiss and delete. No menus to navigate here.
Hi,
The SMS program (the gray/black one included on a stock Rhodium) is really buggy for me - dates/times being mixed up.
Example;
I send an SMS at 12:00 to my friend.
My friend then responds at 12:01 - but it shows up as if he had responded a few minutes earlier then the time that I sent the first message, say, 11:57
It's really wierd, and I'm not sure whats causing this.
All I do know is that I can't have this, seing how I text message _alot_.
Any suggestions on how to fix this, or how to get rid of the Rhodium SMS interface, back to the functional WM SMS interface?
Thanks!
EDIT: If you don't understand the problem, I'll make a video to demonstrate better.
I have the same problem, i dont really care but its strange anyway...
Are you sure that bot your phone and your friends phone are at the exact time?
Some phone don't write the time at which you receive the SMS but the time when you friend's send the SMS based on the time of his phone and sometime it takes the time of the server that relay the SMS
yup I had my GF adjust her clock so they are in sync. then no more problems!
I may be wrong here but, I think it does this when you text through the tf3d sms. When you read the message on the touch flo screen tap the all messages tab on the bottom left and text back that way. Then see if it still happens.
I'm not a huge texting fanatic but this is how I do all my texting. Through tf3d it doesn't do auto capitalization and such. At least I haven't found a way to do it.
Yes, thats what happens.

I also prefered the 'old', standard WM SMSinterface rather than this new one, due to this bug - and the lack of auto capitalization.
What would one do to disable the new tf3d smsinterface, and just go straight to the WM one?
Tapping the "all messages" tab on the bottom left just gets annoying after some time, and I really don't prefer it.
Are we looking forward to a ROMupdate from HTC anytime soon, hms?

I synchronized my phones time with my girlfriends phone, and this still occurs - but only with the TF3D SMS program, not the WM one.
It's freaking me out.
I for example had a diferent problem. Someone sends me a message for example 13:56 and I only receive the message later, after I turn on the phone from standby. Calls sometimes give me unavailable. With my older mobile phone I didn't had any problem with that. I was thinking that the radio update will sort out the problem, but no good. Still the same problem. A big lag between send messages and received. Anyone know the cause. I had also the same problem in my Asus P535 but it fixed someway. Even with the phone connected, some times I need to make a call or activate the 3G GSM connection to receive the notification of the message.
im afraid to ask any iphone friends if they have the same problem(s) as i do its hard enough to convince them the nexus isnt an iphone "wannabe". So I dont know if this is sort of a common issue regardless of OS, although i dont think this happened on my g1 or mytouch.
I receive a text message from "Bob", I open it and the thread has "Jenny" as the name in the actual conversation. In other words, one contact's name is at the top, and is the contact in the screen with all of the threads, but when i select it the text is actually from a different contact, and that name is the one that is followed by a colon and then the actual message. I dont recall this on my g1 or mytouch but its super annoying.
Also, i believe it only has happened (about 6 times total starting about a week ago) when im in the middle of a conversation with, say, person "A", and at some point they send a reply and its received as a new thread from person "B", but person A is still the name in the actual conversation. Theres a ton of bugs in 2.1, but i love the phone and Android and only wish for it to improve, which i understand takes time. This is just particularly frustrating because it started only recently. And yes i clear out the threads regularly but other than restarting the phone thats all ive tried. I dont doubt there may be an easy solution but i cant finger it out. Anybody? thanks
I saw this last night for the first time in the two weeks I have had the phone. I just hit the back button and then returned to the conversation and it was fixed, but I was confused. haha.
Speaking of weird glitches, I once got 5 aces in windows XP solitaire.... I have a screenshot somewhere....
good lord. i just got a text from one of my buddies that said "goodnight sweetheart want to tuck me in?"
then i looked above that one message and the rest of the messages in the conversation had come from my wife who's out of town, and it was in her thread. The phone just decided to make one of the messages from one of my guy friends.
I pressed back like you said and it was fixed but this is NOT cool...

Not sure about sms popup being installed (if it's from the market, then no I do not have it), but I have delivery notifications turned on and I am using the stock messaging application.
I can confirm this happening to me as well and on multiple occasions. From what I can tell I would be texting with "Mike" and I would back out to do something else. Then I would recieve a text from "John" and it would show up with his text but with Mike's picture and name as well as name in the thread. It was very confusing before I had realized what really happened.
Ive has this a couple of times, the message does get sent to the right recipient though i can confirm.
Just hit back, open the thread again and itll be fine. Sometimes happens when you get a message from someone when your composing a message.

I experienced this problem today on my n1... and I experienced it before on my HTC Magic running official sense UI... I reported the problem to HTC at the time and they couldn't replicate the bug in their labs..
same issue here as well
I'll pile on and confirm this bug, but it seems to be limited to the stock messaging app. I haven't seen the problem replicated since I switched to Handcent last week.
I think it was actually just a little different for me though. Mine bugged out when I would go to the "quick messaging" option in the contact list (the thing where you tap on the contact's icon and the little list of ways to get in touch with them pops up) and hit the text icon. Once I hit that icon the text app opens with the contact I intend to text at the top, but the thread contents are that of a different person's thread - usually the last person I was texting.
Weird, but I guess a non issue since I like Handcent a lot better anyway.
