I had this problem on my 8525 after flashing one of many ROM's and now have it on my Tilt with stock ROM. When sending a new sms or replying to one, the screen defaults below the address part onto the bottom of the text portion of the screen. I know this is a reg hack that is needed, but for the life of me I can not find it in a search. This was a common problem on the 8525's after a certain ROM upgrade if anyone remembers.
you mean where it cuts off the person's info you are replying to?
Yeah its annoying!
Doesn't cut it out, but when you open the window to reply, it defaults to only showing the text area, and uses the bottom part of the screen as the point that it sets to show. Thus, the top part of the text reply window is off the screen.
And yes, it is very annoying. I gotta find the reg hack to fix this!
As I recall it happens when the reg is set to use the right and left nav buttons to page down when using IE, it causes the sms to open at the bottom of the screen and you have to scroll back.
This question was asked by another Kaiser user.....guess you guys have all been busy flashing ROMs
The answer IS a reg hack, and here's a link to the reply I posted - the OP hasn't responded to say whether the problem is now cured, but if it's the same issue I experienced on my Hermes, the above answer will work.
Post back....I'd like to know if it works (I'll be getting my Kaiser next month, so this will be something to add to the "Tips and Tricks" document I'm compiling from everyone else's posts )
Cheers,
Mark.
My reg value is already set to 1 in this file. So, only option, set to 0 and lets see what happens!
Was just skimming through some threads and stumbled upon this. That problem was driving me crazy but i hadn't gotten to the point of searching for a solution yet.
This worked for me on my Hermes.
Thanks ^_^

Are you referring to the hack listed in the response above? Because on the Tytn II this value is already set as stated in that thread.
No this is not the same issue the Hermes had when you set the D pad to scroll in IE that issue was the "text curser" would be all the way at the bottom of a screen no matter what cutting off half of emails and what ever else text was sent to you. there is nothing to fix this issue as of now. BUT when I compose a new SMS it ALWAYS starts at the address line not sure why your don't
Hi all
Im looking for an app that will complement the calendar by allowing to record voice notes instead of text input when the calendar is open on "day" view.
when you hold down a specific time on the calendar, the voice recorder is activated and the Voice Note automatically gets recorded on the calendar date and time you are holding down, and gets added to your reminders/appointments with default settings and no more questions.
It would be a lot better obviously if it was translated to text first, but not necessary.
I was able to find "voice cal", very old and uninstallable on wm6.1 with .cf.net 3.5
and also "speerio voice organizer"... looks like a memory hog and i read it doesn't work right. Its also crowded with a million different things that are not useful.
I just want a simple interface to be able to use with one or two clicks or buttons in order to set up a calendar event while im driving or on the phone etc....
thanks
bump!.................
Hi Spiro,
any luck on finding that app? Cos i've been looking for the same, tho i would prefer that when u push the "record" button, u get multiple choices regarding where to place the voice note, where "calendar" bein one of the first. Then u just had to place it into the day and time you would like it to be. Haven't found one yet, so i've started to write to different application developers suggesting such an app. I'm surprised that they haven't made one ages ago. In meantime, if you should come across one, pls let me know.
cheers
anyone???
Do I really have to take up programming and write my own app?
I was lookin around and saw this
handheld.softpedia.com/get/Business/Calendar/VoiceCalendars-52540.shtml
I think this is different than VoiceCal
The one I gave the link to, seems lke it could work. Only problem is that it doesnt use WM existing calendar.
I tried speerio voice reminder and it was horrible! I dont know what some people are thinking.
All I need is a simple plugin to show itself on the calendars context menu when I "long press" on dayview to say "new voice note" and when I click on it it should have a HUGE red record button and a stop button. When you hit the stop button the calendar would save that as an event with the default alarms on the date it was created
the only problem I see with that is that the heading of the event would not be very informative unless one typed the info, but im willing to live with that. Or maybe MSvoice command could help there with some text to speech engine!!! (im not holding my breath)
Im using an app called "thumpcal" right now but they dont have a "day view" and I have to set the time after I scedulle an event on a specific date, but its better than the built in calendar BECAUSE ITS SIMPLE!!!!!
I dont understand how am i supposed to use a program like "speerio" while im driving when it has 30 f...n buttons the size of a neutron on the screen in a grey on grey display?????????
Does anyone know what I have to learn in order to put a little program together to do what I want it to do?
PS I also found some other interesting programs like "freenotes" that I thought was a good idea but I would like to be able to initiate that from the "day view" on the calendar (right click on a time on the screen and have the choice of a voice note or a pen note) so that I dont have to key- in the time that I want the event to take place
ummmmmm.....the link that I posted does what you want.
1.Make folders by subject name
2.Click on a folder, it then brings up calendar
3.Click on a day of the month
4.There is a BIG RED RECORD BUTTON at bottom of screen
5.Record your note, it is then stored for that specific day
Is this not what you want? Granted it doesn't use your existing calendar but hey, something is better than nothing, right
VoiceCalendars
Update*
I was just lookin around and found this app. I think it might be right up your alley. Very simple/minimal interface. Allows you to record a voice message up to 2 minutes and then you can set a date and time for it to play aloud automatically.
Voice Reminder: Download Cab
Heres the website I found it at
I hope either of these programs can help. I know how frustrating it is not to be able to find that perfect app!

Hey asofiker
thanks for your reply
I have an HTC Kaiser phone
I tried both programs you suggested and had the same problems with both that other users seem to be experiencing
the "voice calendars" displays a "the control grid .....could not be created" error
and the other program from the XDA member gives me the "An error occoured on sub_app_start.
This device does not support display power on/off Continue?" error.
I appreciate your help and if I find anything that works in the future Ill be sure to post here
Thanks again!
Not exactly what you're looking for but an idea: Agenda Fusion with its Notes Organizer and Data Linking features. Also a good agenda with lots of views. http://www.developerone.com/agendafusion/index.htm
Pocket Informant 8 is the best Calendar and Contacts app available and I always install it to my wm devices. It has voice notes recording functionality and then some. Check it out. I have tried all the others at great expense (some provide trials) and this is by far the best one.
Regards,
MAC
I tried agenda fusion in the past and find that it falls in the same category as most of these organizer programs its simply overkill for a one handed hand held device with a 2 inch screen
Ill give pocket informant a try and post back
Thanks
pocket informant no good for this purpose either!

Which version of PI are you using?
Mine is version 8 and it does exactly as you require! It saves a voice note under Storage Card/Voices when you select Notes View>Menu>Recording

Im was having a problem with the interface trying to do too much!
Im looking for large buttons and a simple interface like a variation/add on to "thumcal" or "vito audio notes" etc
thanks
Anyone been able to work a fix for this? WM 6 would underline numbers in received e-mail, calendar etc etc one could dial the numbers directly from within the mail?
The paste function has also been removed from the dialpad
ROM 1.37.421.3
This thread has an interesting solution.
http://forum.smartphoneexperts.com/showthread.php?t=165787&highlight=dial
Surur
this is bugging me bigtime!
im going try change the phone skin to the old wm6 version with advanced config, seeing as the function was there before on older phones then it should work here too.
can someone provide a solution??
The same problem for me.
I realized that when you have the status opened (it opens while you are talking) in the menu you have the paste option... but it is useless.
I also want to paste some numbers in the phone to call them... it is very annoying not to have this option (sometimes I need to copy also some numbers from internet pages... but now it is impossible!!!).
Can someone help?!?
Thnx.
Urosh
Hi Surur,
Good one thx for the link, i think this was a serious oversight from MS, this is the one reason i would chuck the phone.
So far i have enjoyed the phone, i think it works well, but as i said its virtually useless if you cant paste numbers on the dialpad.
This limitation is really annoying me now; and still, a month down the line it's the only unforgivable problem I have with this otherwise fantastic little phone.
I was hoping it was a simple oversight, and would have been fixed by now. Has any of the later ROMs addressed the issue? If not, has anyone came up with a solution, or at least a realistic work around that doesn't involve pen and paper?
for over 3 years i am using a dialer "contact breeze".
the dialer himself is also of value but i am reinstalling it each time only for this tweak. long press anywhere in a meeting or task and it will offer any of the telephone numbers in it. no need of any other spaces, tlf:, etc. just type the number and it will be offered for dialing after a long press. the prog cost a few $. it worth it!
Thanks, sounds like a usable work around, I'll check it out.
Still hoping for a real solution though... Anyone?

Yes. Anyone?
For the uninitiated, here's the deal: I'm having a major issue in trying to store my EMail/Attachments on my storage card...the Tilt seems to keep wanting to create a directory called "Storage Card" on the phone memory itself, and renaming the actual card to "Storage Card2".
Now, before anyone jumps on my case: I've been around for a little bit, and I know enough to have done my homework:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...ard likes to rename itself to "Storage Card2"
This problem is talked about here, but not conclusively...A "fix" was mentioned in a link to some other site's Axim-related thread, but that didn't work for me...and two links mentioned at the end of this wiki are actually bad.
The issue is also discussed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353953&highlight=storage+card2
and here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=372296&highlight=storage+card2
From what I gathered, it appears that the Tilt is so far asleep, that when EMail comes in, the Today-Messaging plug activates before the storage card does...hence the problem.
Now, one brilliant soul figured out, "Aha...remove the Today-Messaging plugin, problem solved." But as another person answered:
So now I need to decide if it is more important to store my mail on my card or have the messaging plugin...?

I don't want to have to use a third party app for this. Can ANYBODY tell me if a workaround was ever found for this problem that would allow the Messaging-Today plugin to work normally? THANKS!
jst an idea..
Far from a proper fix, but could'nt you (someone) maybe write a Mort script to disable the today plugin on boot then re-enable 30 seconds later?
Jst an idea...
I wouldn't be able to do it myself... but it occurs to me that some of the big brains round might be able to do it in there sleep with the right motivation
Mort script? What's that?
Thanks for the suggestion...unfortunately, I don't have a clue as to what a Mortscript is. I'd be very worried about the reliability of something like this, but maybe someone can elaborate on it.
Also, if there is a simple, free plugin that duplicates the standard Messaging plugin (like Cal+ does for the Calendar...it looks very similar, just slightly improved), I'd be open to using that. But I've searched and so far, I haven't found anything like that.
Refining the statement of the problem...
OK, I actually have noticed that the problem primarily occurs when I have to do a soft-reset...if the messaging app is active on the Today screen, it looks like it's "coming to life" before the storage card. I'm actually starting to see this happen with a few other applications that have Today plugins.
[EDIT/ADDED:] I actually found some sort of fix involving the Windows file omapdll (or something like that)...it has something to do with the storage card loading. However, I don't have this file in my device.
Anyone else have any ideas for a fix...Please?

Scratch that last. I've had the messaging plugin (and a few other Today plugins that use the storage card) off the Today screen for the entire evening, and it still creates that fake "Storage Card" directory in phone memory, renaming the actual card "Storage Card2". This doesn't appear to just be limited to Today plugins; it looks like it may be an issue with the Tilt itself...I'm pretty sure I'd put Windows Mobile 6 on my 8525, and I never experienced such behavior. So it looks like even flashing a new ROM (which I'm hesitant to do) may not help.
I'm extremely frustrated...I bought the Tilt because I loved my 8525 and was hoping the Tilt fixed some of its limitations. But right now, I'm wishing I would've just gotten an iPhone.
If someone knows of a fix I've missed, please let me know. Thanks.
Hey fellow forum users,
I recently (read: last tuesday afternoon) got my Diamond. And I am kind of lost.
First of all, my internet doesn't work. Tuesday begin of the evening it did work. But at the end of the evening and today it hasn't worked at all. @ the dutch vodafone site there are specific things you need to fill in which I did. However it still doesn't work. So I will be giving them a call first thing tomorow.
Second of all, my music. When I plug in my Touch Diamond on the computer, I see this map "content" I click on it and I see "music" so I put an album in there, but there is no music on the phone. Does it have to be converted? because I didnt find a converter on any of the cd's I was given. The same thing with my video. I put a movie on it for testing, but can't find that anywhere on my phone either.
Further I have some requests,
- I am looking for a transparant clock (the white part transparant) so you'll see the wallpaper better.
- I am looking for a way to change the bottom bar.
- I am looking for the best way to use my gps receiver (like a program or something).
- A way to simplify my contacts, I find it very annoying to have all this info. I just want to keep their names with e-mail, mobile phone numer and home number.
- A thing like that weather tab, only then with the time. Don't know if it's out but I find that a really funny feature on the iPods. Perhaps with those huge analog clocks showing the time of 6 countries in the world
Thanks in advance,
Dennis
p.s. I'll be using this topic if allowed for some further questions and am looking forward to any advice given.
p.p.s general advice on what to do with it for easier and better use of the device is very very much welcome.
p.p.p.s I have these programs on my phone aswell, as a .rar file still though if that matters (he said not), someone adviced me to put them on:
- Mortonscript
- Diamond TF3D Config Setup
- Automatic Wallpaper changer (no use for this yet but I really liked the background he was talking about that changed to the time it was, so like a sun during the day and a moon during the night).
I am completly lost at the moment. Gonna study the books that were packed with it I guess. Any help is appreciated.
1000 times thanks for anyone who can help.
(and hope this is allowed)
anyone that can help?

Hi Dennis,
I'll try to help where I can. The internet issue you will probably have to sort out with your provider. If it was working and now it isn't it the only thing I can think of is you made some change to the network config. They should be able to get it working again.
As for Music I found the best way to transfer music to the Diamond is through active sync. Plug your phone in to your PC, when prompted on the phone select active sync, then on the PC open up Windows Media player and select sync. Then just drag and drop the music you want on your phone to the sync panel and then click sync. All the music you selected will be transferred to your phone and the album art and everything if it is available will be displayed on the phone.
For the transaprent flip clock and lots more tf3d mods, look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436867
For the bottom bar you have to be more specific, do you want to change the softkeys??
I find the best GPS software is either google maps or microsoft live search, both are free, google them!
For contacts there are many solutions out there, you will have to look on your own, sorry!
I've seen world clock application but most of them are home plugins, again you will have to look around on your own..
As for the rest, you will have to spend some time reading and searching. I don't advise reading the book that came with it as it contains very little useful info.
hit me back if you have anymore questions!!! oh and welcome to the community!!!
With changing the bottombar I mean putting like perhaps the gps on the spot of the photo / video etc.
Thanks btw
Sorry Dennis, as far as i know there is currently no method for changing the tf3d tabs. You can add some but really they already exist just not displayed. You can try SSmapa to replace some of the default functions.
