New SMS phone number search - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi Everyone!
Apologies for reposting, I tried searching but I couldn't get anything, and I just asked the same question under Dutty's Rom thread. Apologies!
I was wondering, does anyone know how to turn on the feature where in when you are creating a new SMS, you type in the first few letters of the name and it suggests possible matches.
I'm using Dutty's Diamond Rom.
Thanks!

Doesn't this work by default. It has always worked for me and I don't remember specifically setting any options in Messaging to make this work, perhaps the "Smart dialing" options in the phone also automatically apply to SMS???

I think it works like this: u start typing the name and the options(the names that fits what u wrote) pop up only if u push the space bar. Try that.

Try disabling xT9 (if you dont use an xt9 SIP).

Messages name auto complete

Ok, so when I used to start typeing a contacts name in the 'to' field of message, it would give me a list of names or numbers after putting in a few letters or numbers. Now I have to put in a couple letters/numbers and then go to check name. Anyone have any idea how i turned this off.

try this:
u want to send sms to Johny, start typing to the name field "Jo" and then push the space bar on your keyboard, an option of the possible names should pop up at the bottom.

ok, now I feel a bit retarded, don't remember doing that before, but guess it was. Thanks.
Have loaded any new touch keyboards to your device. For me, that feature will stop working after I add any new keyboards. It will come back for a bit after a soft reset, but then it goes away again. Once I remove the offending keyboard, then it works again... I wish I could have both.
I have a similar problem if I use large title bar. When its loaded, the roller wheel on the side no longer controls call volume... Again, wish I had both!

You should't have to enter a space to get the options. It should appear as your typing.
As mentioned above if you installed a keyboard from another device, such as the Touch or Diamond, with T9/XT9 you will lose this auto complete and word suddgestion. There is a disable XT9 cab witch will give you the auto complete and word suddgestion back, but cause the non defult keyboards to enter number only, no letters. it that is the case you have to decide witch is more important to you.
Did you install another keyboard? or did it just stop working as it had?
I will agree that the Installation of Customer SIPs like PCMKeyboard or something else will interfere with this..

yes, but its the workoround if u have installed other sips. I dont hyave this isue and have resco keybord installed, so that one is not causing the issue.

Correct, but I was just replying to him saying:

because he shouldn't feel stupid, because he did't have to do it previously.

TouchPal 3.5 and HTC Diamond = incompatibility !!!

Does anyone else have the following problem ?:
When you go to the SMS tab, and press the small box to start writing new SMS, if you use the original Diamond keyboard, you can just type a few letters of your contact and it will fully appear. If you use TouchPal (I'm using version 3.5), this feature is disabled, you have to type your entire contact name every time, it doesn't recognize the first few letters and try to find a match. This is SO annoying !
Please tell me there is some workaround...
Could it be that the Diamond's original keyboard stores all the contact information in the Keyboard dictionary ?, if this is true, it means no keyboard apart from Diamond's original will allow quick find of contacts in SMS...
no problem with me..
say for eg you wanna call "home"
just press H O and enter and then it will detect home in my contact.
i suspect the problem may be.. touchpal "store" what you pressed in its own list instead of going up to the SMS directly..
Same problem. Would love to see an solution, but I think there is none...
Wizard,
Do you have the Touchpal keyboard ???
its free for personal use available online..
The contacts don't display when you start typing, but if you only type a few letters and then press send a page appears with all contacts that have the letters you've typed in their names. You can then tap the contact you wish to send to.
I don't find it a problem.

Works in Portaint and Landscape on Mine.
I am using IBI.V8.Office ROM at the moment which has "Arcsoft MMS (Alex edition)" cooked in. So it might be a feature of that or there may be a reg key, but I'm not sure.
EDIT: Can you dump HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings and I'll see if there is a difference with mine?

Nope, nothing that jumps out at me, soz. If your using a cooked ROM, try asking the chef if they know.

No, I use the original HTC WM 6.1 ITA..

In the current ROM I Have Arcsoft MMS (_Alex_'s Version) whatever that means. It is from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412449. The Chef has a massive collection of CAB's Might be worth looking for it in there.

Help, Can't change from Full-QWERTY!

Hi!
I got a problem on my diamond that i just can't seem to fix :/.
I cant change from Full-qwerty keyboard :/.
I got this problem today but i havent done anything to get it.
I've tried changing from full-qwerty in the menu on the top-left corner, but it just keeps changing back.
I can't change it while writing sms, can't click on the small arrow down in the middle beside the keyboardbutton.
Nothing works :/
Can anyone please help me? I'm going crazy writing on the qwerty keyboard, takes so much more time!
Thanks!
try this go to start/settings/system/screen/align screen follow instructions then you should be able to access the arrow tab at the side of your keyboard icon and change to whichever format you require hope this helps
Thank you but i didn't help :/
I cant click on that arrow.
And when going to start/settings/input(?)(i have the swedish version so i dont know the english word for it) I change it to normal keyboard or just something else besides qwerty.
But when i return into the menu it says "qwerty" :/ it just keeps changing back :/
sorry dont speak swedish use a translator in google
Hi!
I can change my keyboard here:
start/settings/system/
Sunnysoft InterWrite <- this is the program's name.
sry about my bad eng.
Okey, well google translated it to input so it must have another word in the mobile :/
Well if you go to start/settings and then click on the icon in the middle on the top if you know what i mean? There you can change from qwerty to normal keyboard and so on... can you find it?
Well that just keeps changing back to fullqwerty the whole time :/

If you want to know how to make shortcuts and use command lines, have a look on vijay555's site, he explains it very well. His app (and many others) will not work untill you learn how to do this.
