I have two browsers and when I highlight text, the pop up menu always gives me the wrong browser to search the text in, is there a way to change it to the other browser?

So i changed from the 8125 to the wing and I have discovered it is much more difficult to send a new text message. You have to go through like 5 different commands...(open the message bar, select text message account, tap menu, scroll to new, scroll to sms) it just seems so tedious so i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to make it so i can have new message be one of my soft key choices (preferably where the delete soft key is). Its really annoying.
Thanks BP
How about when you install the HTC Home plugin, I HAD one until i bricked my phone yesterday :'( it came with the PDAVIET rom which was released some time ago.
What it does is, it shows on the Today screen a link to Email and one to SMS.
That's probably the fastest way.
Cheers
how 'bout putting the command "new sms" under a softkey ?
Or simply install the program "name" (sorry forgot the name) that puts a "New" menu at your left soft-key in the today screen, from there you can choose sms, e-mail, mms etc.. Just search for New menu
Press Contacts softkey. Scroll to the intended recipient. Tap, hold, pick "Send Text Message". Type text message. Press Send softkey.
What's the problem?
How About VIJay?
Hello,
I use VijaySMS All the time... It allows you to make a shortcut (I use SPB Today so I create the shortcuts in there) that either starts a blank SMS or start one to a specific contact. You can find the program at Vijay's webpage here: http://www.vijay555.com/
Enjoy!
You could set up the Message button to automatically go to your SMS Inbox when you press it.
Messaging Inbox > Menu > Tools > Options...
Select Text/SMS and uncheck "Display account picker when opening Messaging." This will automatically open your SMS Inbox, thus eliminating the first two steps of your problem.
I have htc home installed. I love the way palm threaded sms works, but it gets really annoying at times. is there any way to set it up so that when i hit the text button on htc home it opens JUST my sms inbox, and when i hit the email button, it opens JUST my email? right now, it opens the main messaging window, as well as the text or email window whenever i hit either of those buttons.
also, when palm threaded sms is installed, my text message inbox opens itself about every 10 minutes on its own, does anyone know how to stop this?
if not, does anyone know of another sms program? the one that comes on the mogul is really slow and ugly, i dont even care if its threaded, i just want something faster and possibly better looking than the built in one

Load up your emai/sms ap, menu -> tools -> settings untick "display account picker"
well that solved the problem of it opening the picker, but it created another problem. now the email icon on the htc home plugin just opens text message inbox as well. is there a way to set what those buttons open? Also, is there a way to delete this "Outlook E-mail" account?
thanks for your reply isix
When I open a sms, it opens in a threaded view with all the messages in the conversation. However, is it possible to delete a specific message in this conversation?
It is but it is annoying.
In threaded view click on the underlined part of the message, the bit with the name and time. This will take you to a screen with options to call, text etc. Press the back button and the whole message should now be highlighted blue. Now the delete option is available in the menu.
Does anyone know an easier way to do this or delete multiple messages at a time?
To select the message in question just use the up and down keys on one of the HTC keyboards....

Thank you. It worked. But sometimes I was able to select a message, so I could delete it, without taking me to the new screen. But it seemed really random, most of the times it took me to the new screen.
michi123's solution also works well. Seems to me that this SMS application isn't really made for devices with no physical buttons.
Hey guys,
I've come from the Diamond1 and I've noticed with the Diamond2 that when you send a text message and you want to send the same text to another person, you can't copy and paste from the sent window.
For example, you can't highlight previous messages sent to you and ones that you've sent and copy them. I find this very annoying, anyway to fix it?
Thanks
I can do it fine if I go into MENU and do SELECT TEXT.
If you don't get the copy/paste options in the menu, you can always set the keyboard to the default wm one, and push CTRl-c, CTRL-v.
It CAN be done...
Under Sent Items, open mail. Text is greyed.
Select Menu\Select Text
Select the text you want
Press & hold on the selected text. Menu pops up "Delete..Forward...Mark as Unread..COPY..Select All" select copy.
Exit message by the back hard button
start new message by menu\new\sms
tap once in message area (not "To:")
Press & hold next to cursor and wait a second - the dotted circle will come out and give you the option to paste.
I have a Diamond 2 Win 6.5 Hellenic.
None of the above can be done with this operating system. Copy-Paste is totally missing.
juz press n hold in the sms
the menu will show "Make Selection" as the first option
select that n select the text u want, press n hold again n you'll get the copy option
I came across this problem yesterday, If I tried to paste more than 640 characters (length of more than 4 sms) it would not paste.
It seems to paste fine if the lengh of the sms is less than this.
I find I need to copy text from Gmail or a website sometimes and I have yet to figure out a way to do it. I can easily copy text from a text entry box but if it is just text on a page or email you cant bring up a Select Text option. Is there any way to do this?
On browser,
Menu > More > Select Text
Gmail,
Not there yet. Try check via Browser when you need to copy text. You should still be able to paste in the gmail app
Yeah, this is in the sticky. Froyo brings copy/paste to gmail.
