Hi all, I'm finding it frustrating that there is no way to edit a contact's details or quickly make a call from viewing an SMS, is there a tweak/patch for this or am I doing something wrong??
close input program like keyboard, press up and down key to highlight sms, and press call
Solved.
Cheers, It's a bit annoying that you can't do it from the Flo view, and is a bit awkward, however this method also works to get to contacts too if you press the center button.
Thank You.
just press more (left buton)
in the list of sms's press the phone button. you will be able to call that person.
you do not need to close the keyboard.
If u dun close keyboard u cant select the message, u'll highlight text instead
what about just hitting the green button key ? that works for me

when i press more in the tf3f sms screen i go to the sms list.
if i have a keyboard there or not does not make a difference.
as soon as i press the call key, i can make a phonecall. to the selected person.
if i press up or down the next message is selected and i can call to that person.
what are you doing different?
perhaps your message is already highlighted. u can only call, forward, etc, when the message is highlighted. U'll see a lightblue highlight on the message.
When u're replying a message, no message is highlighted, hence, no forwarding etc
but when you reply to a message you are in a different screen.
i am talking about the sms overview.
so to call someone you received a message from it is only two clicks, instead of 1 click as the first poster wanted.
lol, probably misunderstanding. we both obviously have no problems and threadstarter also no problems already, so, case solved lol

you could say that
Thanks everybody for your input, yes the solution works.
If I'm in the single SMS mode (i.e. the SMS "old style" list I have no problems accessing contact details or making a call.
The threaded SMS mode proves to be more difficult, however by highlighting a message (either pressing up, or down then up, or closing the keyboard) then you can access the number by pressing the call button.
The Quick SMS view in the HTC FLO mode though proves the most difficult only allowing you to select the message to open up the Threaded SMS view. This is the mode I wanted to make a call directly from or access there details, however I don't think that is possible.
When i enter an sms the t9 automatically gives me suggestions for words.
which is fine.
when i send my sms the last suggestions stays open. it covers the sms i just send and i cannot clearly see if i have sent the sms or not.
also it indicates that i should send my sms, because the suggestion is seen as a new sms.
is there a way to close the t9 suggestion when the send button is pressed?
I haven't tried it yet, but there is an option where you get a confirmation when your sms is sent.
Maybe that will solve your issue?
i have noticed this as well. If you don't press the centre button to select the last suggestion before you send, the suggestion bar stays there.
not exactly the end of the world, and once i got used to pressing the centre button when i had finished typing, instead of not selecting the word and just hitting send, it has never happened again.
not perfect, but you just need to learn to hit the centre button instead of just hitting send without selecting the word you want.
I got thia SMS from somebody and i wanted to call im back on that number but i couldn't find a way tot do that quickly. This should be a simple thing to do but i can't seem to find it.
Select the text message in your inbox or open the message, press the dial button and then the call soft key.
Hi,
I've had a HTC Herald and a Touch Cruise in the past. I've just got a Diamond and am having trouble when sending SMS. Usually I would press send and it would display the message sent notification and then go to the SMS inbox.
I've played around and turned the sent notification on.... and then back off as I realized I could live without it (this was done with advanced config)
But my problem is when I send a message, the message moves up to the rest of the conversation that is above and is in bold text. Now I would expect that it would clear the text I have just written from the input text box at the bottom and either go to the whole conversation view or the SMS inbox. I don't mind it going to the conversation view instead of the SMS inbox but I have to press Menu >> Close and it asks me if I want to save a draft of the message I've just sent.
It's just really frustrating to have to press a bunch of buttons just to get back to the main menu. Has anyone else noticed this?
I have no problem sending or receiving MMS, but the phone doesn't send a confirmation (not sure on correct terminology) to the sender, and I also get a text saying you have received a picture message, and a URL to click and log in to view the picture.
Now this isnt really a problem but sometimes it sends the picture multiple times as well as the link.
Is there a setting maybe in the registry to sort this out or is it a network problem
I'm on TMobile uk and have a MDA Compact 4 with NRG rom.
TIA
Just go to the place where you are about to write a text message. Go to the bottom button and there should be a option button and from here you select the settings button and there you should be able to check and/or uncheck which things like confirmation...
Its when i'm receiving them, i get the picture as an mms, and as a text link, usually you get one or the other or so I thought.
