Single SMS Multiple Contacts - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hey Everyone,
I am looking to send a single sms to specific multiple contacts. I understand that the sms feature in WM6 allows you to autocomplete a contact by typing theyre name as you go, I am looking for however a CAB file or something that will allow me to do something like tick the people i want to send to?
I hope they're is something like this out for WM6, otherwise its a long time sending about 200 mobiles a new number ha ha.
I'm not a often poster, but long time viewer, and i know you all know your stuff and i'm thankful for anything you can tell me!

Don't know if you'd only be satisfied with ticking multiple names, but the auto-complete thing does allow you to type in more than one name. I assume you realized that? Alternatively you can just continually click on "add recipient" and select them all one-by-one, though that's a pain in the ass. I've found the autocomplete for multiple recipients to be pretty fast. Do you not find that to be the case?

I was chatting to a few people on palringo's MoDaCo group and one user suggested Jeyo Mobile Companion 2.0 Demo. It does exactly what i wanted to do on the phone but on windows XP!
I only really needed it as a one off but i would recommend it as a solutions especially if your going to use it reguarly
Thanks for your comments and suggestions though, your all good people!

you can try this software SMS Assistant from QimSoft
http://www.qimsoft.com/
After install, it will add one Menu item "Add Recipients" at the bottom of Menu
Click it then it allow you to multi select contact

yeah I use group sms as well you can find it in the development thread. didn't realize it was included in the 6.1 rom as well.

Don't worry mate there is an ultimate solution for GRoup SMS... Although i already answer this query in this forum before but anyway...
You definitely need a RJV SMS SCHEDULER OR SHUBAROO'S GROUP SMS 1.4.4 ...
just goto www.freewarepocketpc.net and search it there

SMS viewer

The Treo750 viewing SMS messages can be done only in the classic manner that date, grouped by sender. What can be convenient because in this way can we know at any moment what messagge i received from a person rather than another without having to scroll through the entire list of messages in that folder.
There is software that makes this thing to install on a kaiser???
Thanks in advance
nobody have a solution to my question???
Gosh!!! What an idea!!!
This is amazing, how can it be ? No it cant be . u got to be kidding

A few questions about my new Wing

Hi everyone... I am trying to find out a few things about my new phone. I am brand new to Windows Mobile, coming from a blackberry, and have done much searching on here, but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for.
I have found tons of posts on how to disable threaded texts. Not sure why anyone would want to do this, (I'm still used to my blackberry, and I love the threaded texts)... so I am wondering how I get that, because mine must be already disabled. Mine only shows the messages that were sent to me. I did get a program from a guy I work with called Xtreme text, which is ok, but kind of slow.
Also, I would like to know if I can disable or at least change the sound that my phone makes when I send a sms. I went into sounds and turned off notifications, and that turned it off, but it also turned off the sound for when I receive a text.
I saw that there are different operating systems I guess they are, and some of them maybe would give me the things I'm looking for, but a lot of them say that the transcriber has been disabled, and that is the whole reason I had to lose the Blackberry, because we are using a new program at work and I need to be able to have my phone signed with the stylus.
I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks!
Welcome to xda-devs! consider this your "get questions anwered without just being to sold to search" pass.
Threaded texts are not natively supported in WM6. You must flash a WM6.1 rom for natively supported threaded texts. Flashing roms is really fun and kind of addicting (at least imho). There are currently 2 methods for flashing roms- USPL and Hard-SPL. Your phone is protected from rom changing with a "CID-Lock" that is built into the SPL of your phone. The USPL uses a temporary SPL to disable the lock where as Hard-SPL flashes a totally new SPL that has no CID-lock.
Romwise, we do not yet have an abundance of cooks. We have two main cooks, itje and ttran. They make the "Touch-it" and "Open Touch" roms, respectively.
Now about the transcriber. The transcriber takes the text that you write and translates it into text. I am not sure what program you could use to actually sign documents.
Welcome to xda-devs!
Thanks fzzy! Ok, so in your opinion, what would be the easier way for a newb to do this, and what would be the flash that I wanted to use? I am totally new to all of this and will need step by step instructions on how to do all of it without turning my phone into a paperweight.
Any suggestions and help will be awesome! The main things I want are the threaded texting, and to be able to scroll through my contacts with my finger like the iphone I guess. Also, I would really like for the phone not to make that bell noise when I send an sms. The thing with the transcriber i believe is built into the program that we will be using, but the ability for the phone to accept the movement of the stylus needs to be active still.
Thank You!

Very important.....
And if you hard-spl... you can test any rom you want....
Yeppers. As fzzyrn said, you don't need the transcriber since all that does is translate what you write into words. If you do want it, though, you can built a ROM using my kitchen that includes it.

Boo hoo, no body loves me. I'm gonna built one ROM with every configuration possible with my kitchen and release it so that people will start talking about my Clean series ROMs. hehehe
Hmm I still don't really understand what any of that means. Maybe I will just have to learn to like this phone the way it is.
It does say though, under "programs you need" that you need active sync if you have XP. What if you are using Vista?
I am going to keep reading posts to find out as much as I can, but this is all pretty confusing to me so far...

My suggestion:
1. USE your device about a few weeks. You never tune a car before you tested it.
2. Meanwhile READ, READ, READ and you will understand WinMobile etc.... and Activesync and WMDC on Vista
3. NOW start searching apps you want to try....
4. And now think about falshing a tuned up Operating system....
But please take time for 1-3!!!!!!!

Would it maybe be easier for me to just try the palm threaded sms program, since that's really the biggest thing I want? Also, does anyone know how to turn off that stupid annoying sound that comes up and says message sent? That thing is really annoying me!
Thanks!

you got to reg edit it(use a reg editor like PHM Reg edit0
then go to HKLM(hey_local_machine)\software\microsoft\inbox\settings
SMSNoSentMsg = 1
you might have to create the value...

Ok, sorry but I'm really new to this... is this reg editor something I run on the phone, or on the computer while the phone is connected to it?
Thanks
youhave to install PHM reg edit to your phone or use this on your desktop computer(attached):
ok, so I started the regeditor and connected my phone, and went into HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Inbox but then there is no settings folder, only "Ldapinfo", "sendDriver", and "Svc". Any suggestions on where to go from there?
Thank you!
here i created a cab file for you.
just copy it to your wing then click it and it will fix this sent message thing
hmm I copied it and clicked it, and it opened a bunch of text in IE, but it didn't stop the message sent notification. Not sure if I did something wrong or what...
lordy lordy. how'd i forget ivan? haha.
we should also add albert now what with his carbon rom, eh?
oh by the way, you need to click it from your device, not form your computer. trix is for kids (get it?). oh and you should get some "cab via activesync" software so you don't hafe to repeatedly copy and open.
so it didnt install at all?
i tried it on my wing and showed this:

Reply email only to all

Hi,
does anybody know how to change the softkey in the mail menue. My Problem is that when i receive outlook pushmail emails and i open a email that i want to answer i have only the option reply to all. In my old device i had the key reply or answer (it´s german ROM).
any ideas? because actually i have to go to menue and then reply. that works but the direct softkey Reply (not to all) would be better.
I have bepe's ROM v0.52 (German) and have noticed it too.
I think this is a translation error. Instead of "Antworten" it says "Allen Antworten".
that's no translation error, it's also in the standard wwe
roms.
i've noticed this since i have my diamond, but i don't
want to bother anyone here with that, because i think
that htc will fix this in a future release.
perhaps a regkey exists in which we could fix this for
ourself, i will investigate that!
for now, there is a simple solution: go to "menue>reply>reply"
and you would have the standard reply...
regards,
markus
Hello all,
I'd like to re-open this discussion, as this 'feature' is really quite a pain.

I hear ya, but this is what this forum is for; I don't think people will mind.
Has anyone come across a way of modifying this soft key to once again serve as a "reply" only finction instead of "reply all"?
Any insight would be much appreciated!
Regards,
I came across this "bug" also, but I solved it by entering my own email address in the advanced options of my email account. When you don't do that and you hit the reply all button, you will reply to the original sender, but also to yourself.
This is how to do it:
1. Open active sync
2. Click MENU
3. Select: OPTIONS
You now see the items to synch with your exchange server.
4. Select EMAIL
At the bottom you have 2 buttons, DELETE and CONFIGURE (or something else in your own language)
5. Click CONFIGURE
You are now in the Syncoptions for e-mail screen
6. Click the Advanced button
In the Advanced email options screen, at the bottom you can fill in your email address.
7. Fill in your email address and finish all the upcomming screens.
When you now hit the Reply All button, you only reply to the original sender and not to yourself anymore. Furthermore there is no way to change it to reply instead of Reply All.

Absolutely! What a dumb feature. Here is your fix my friends and, yes, that's why we're all here.
Using any Registry editor (like CeRegedit) here's the key.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\OutlookEnhancement
Change the OutlookEnhancement dll value data to "" (double quote) and then soft reset.
Hope this makes sense to you but it works as I've been doing it after every hard reset for months and months!
Cheers
Brilliant!!!!!
Thanks very much for the fix, WMguy; it worked like a charm! On a side note, I find it a bit odd that they'd consider this an 'enhancement'
Thanks also to MRE-net for the suggestion. I in fact already had my email address assigned to the account, and didn't actually experience the problem of emails returning to my own account; it just bothered me that the "reply all" button was still present when it didn't make any sense, and I knew there HAD to be a proper solution. Turns out there was!
Thanks again to everyone for the suggestions. That's why I love this forum!
Keep up the good work!
Regards,

Direct dialing from a reminder or calendar?

Hi Guys
Hope you can help.
I load appointments in Outlook and Sync
The appointment contains the persons name and phone number.
I would like to make a call directly from the reminder or calendar.
Using the telephone number as a hypertext link would be great.
I am normally busy driving to the client so I cant copy and paste or write the number down. Copy and paste does not work when switching to phone mode, does not allow you to paste?
Would greatly appreciate a solution!
(using Touch Diamond)
Have a look at Pocket Informant 8. When you set the appointment you have an option in the righthand soft menu to insert contact link. This then allows you to have the appointment open and access contact info directly from the appointment. Hope this is what you are after.
make a search before u post. look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407216
Thanks tempest2112, Pocket informant looks like something that may solve the problem, very useful!
Apologies KukurikU, I did look at the link you provided but don’t have a clue what they are talking about. My knowledge goes as far as copy and paste and installing a program
You need to upgrade to a 1.93 based ROM which has paste function in the dialer... (this one did my head in for ages until I flashed 1.93).
Still need to copy then paste though, so you'll just have to pull over for a second... hang on a mo, you should be doing that anyway!

try the app i am recommending there. i am sure it will fulfill yr wish....i am using it for 3 years and it does exactly what you are asking for. just keep yr stylus on a meeting (for example) and if there is any telephone number in the reminder or in the note the app will inquire if you want to dial it. no copy/paste!!!

Hi KukuriKU,
I have installed contactbreeze, but the PIM extension is not appearing in OUtlook (i am checking teh notes section). I am using the SwiftBL 6.5 version of ROM.
Are you using contactbreeze with the Diamond, and did you do anything special to make it work?
Thanks!
Part 1
nothing special.
first options/tweaks/apply dial menu extension.
second, go to the appointment/task that already contain a telephone number and by "long press" you'll get the option "dial number".
i think the set of pics should be enough. for more pics see next post.
if you still have questions, contact me
Part 2-3 more Pics
Her is the end of my explanations:
ContactBreeze Works now!!

Thanks for the excellent clarification provided KukurikU! I was trying to select the number in teh notes section and then trying a long press.... this just used to bring out teh cut/copy menu item. I didnt know I had to perform the long key press in the main screen... anyway many thanks for your help - issue sorted now.
BTW ContactBreeze does solve the issue of the missing dial from PIM feature in WM6.
The only extra thing I would wish is if it could handle pauses and auto-pin entry using DTMF. For example in many of my appointments I have a conf call number and then when I dial that I need to enter a pass code (maybe 4 or 6 digits).
What I usually do is provide something like +44800345678pp321458# to dial and there is no need to enter information manually. If contactBreeze had this feature then that would have made this the ultimate soluion!!

Change View of Contacts - AAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!

Hi Guys
Im loving my XDA Ignito (removed o2 Rom, now just like a HTC Diamond)
The contacts are displayed "surname, first name" this is soooo frustrating !! Please please could somebody help me convert my contacts to "first name, surname" I have roughly 220 numbers.
Thanks
Adam
Change the "File As" field in each contact. You might be able to do this in Outlook too.
umm... why is this such a problem?!?
are people too stupid to remember a surname?
my friend, when you only have 10 friends, as you must with responses like that, it probably isn't.
On the other hand when you have several Samantha's and such on the phone it can be.
So I would still appreciate some help please.
Cheers
fair enough, but i find it easier to go by surname (and i have many Chris' for example, and it is easier just to go to the one person with that one surname than scroll thru loads of Chris' to find the one with the right surname?!!?!?!?!
i think you will find that ur answer does not make sense.
and on this n00bish argument, there are fricking hundreds of threads about this, so sorry if i'm starting to get pissed off with the question.
Just use the smart dial feature, i have exactly the same problem as you, but i cannot/will not sit there and edit, in my case 286 contacts because microsoft is stupid.
i mean really, if they can file them the wrong way round, surely there is an option to file them correctly, i have been saying this since WM5!!!
NOTHING WILL GET DONE, and i dont think it will
Sorry, guess with frickin hundreds of threads on this there must be frickin hundreds of other people who aren't quite as clever at remembering surnames as you.
Thanks for the help.
Am I talking to myself? Edit the contact and change the File As. All my contacts are firstname lastname.
indeed.
there is no answer to this, most people with technology are used to it.
only Nokia 3310 still have first name first.
why dont u just type the name in one line?
Ruffage, I did try this but unfortunately "file as" only give me one option, i.e. "Smith;John/1"
mugglesquop - Have you nothing better to do than waste my time & yours by writing useless sh*t... F*ck off
usless sh*t??
i told you there is no way of changing them all (AFAIK, and i have read a lot of threads on this)
i also told you a way of storing contacts in the way that you want for future use.
useless?
There must be a way of doing this!!
Also if I do what you said for the future, then I would have half my contacts "firstname, surname" & half "surname, first name" how confusing would that be??

Hmm your contacts are messed up then. I get the choice of both ways to display. Perhaps the name is in one field only in Outlook? Can't check here as I'm not at home atm.
When i go to the properties of the contact, there is only a "Name Field" not a First & Last name field.... hmm ?

It displays like that by default, but there should be a drop down arrow at the right hand side of the Name field and, if you tap that, it'll pop up a further box which shows how the name is actually formatted with the fields Title, First, Middle, Last, Nickname and Suffix.
I changed all my contacts such that only the First name field was populated and had their entire name in there (i.e. "First: John Smith") and that means they all come out as you want with their first name displayed before their last name. That doesn't really help you too much though because you'd have to manually reformat all your contacts which is annoying I know.
Medulla, thanks for that!
I suppose I will just have to spend an hour doing it...
use smartdial or use contact search! why would you want to scroll through a 200 people contactlist?

to show off that he has sooo many contacts apparently
i have to use the recent call list far too many people otherwise
This isnt just me showing off how many people i have in my phonebook (as you say) its obvisouly a common problem otherwise there wouldnt be so many posts about it.
Anyway, it was my old phone what f*cked it up, instead of "first" or "last" name it only put it under "name", so spent an hour or so editing them... now spot on. Also under stand the "file as" now too.
Thanks for all your help (or not for some people)
Cheers
Adam
