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!!!!!!!

Together, we can be "The Forgotten."
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:

haha yeah i know its just i made that cab for him nd it "didnt work" but i think Fzzyrn helped him
This .cab will create a short vibrate everytime you press a number when dialing a number.
***this is the updated version. Will only work on 6.1***
please report any problems.
I have noticed a quicker response time, i might be crazy to.
**for people with problems getting the error, install the second one**
Confirmed working on....

HYPERDRAGONIIIPRO--SLIGHT DELAY BUT GOOD
ATT 6.0--WORKS DECENT
ATT 6.1--SUCKS ASS BUT WORKS

Not a problem, ever since my wife got the motorola z9 it has tactile response (vib when button pressed) i thought it would be great for the tilt. I always miss a number using the dialer.
Perhaps the updated video drivers will provider a better response time on the touch screen...
*sigh* hope HTC actually follows through, otherwise I may lean a bit more toward another manufacturer next time (I like playing games during lunch breaks, and when i take the train -- most game's i've found, even basic ones that run on my T-Mobile Wing (HTC Herald), fail on the tilt :-(

HA HA HA. Wow looks like someone else had the same idea about 3 years ago. Boy did i waste my time. But i guess to answer your question .zip vs .cab other than ripping it apart to inspect how it was written, and it was posted in the Magician forum. Oh well i guess i wasted my time, but on the other hand i hope people found it useful.
Argh, for me, nothing work, no vibrate, no sound.

Hey this cab works great for me. Is there anything that will produce the same type of feedback for the soft keyboard? Or would that depend on the sip?

Any news on this at all?
One of the great things about the Nokia and PC Suite wass the ability to read and write text messages form my pc when hooked up via bluetooth.
Is this possible with android/Magic?
I guess not then....
I know the Magic has its own keyboard but it is still much easier to type on a real one. It also has the benefit of making me look busy at work
I have written a app that let's you telnet to the android device over wifi to send sms. It's pretty basic and has no other features but sending a SMS to the number you specify with the message you want.
Leave your mail if you want me to send it to you.
Cheers

Thanks mockillo, yes please, I've PM'ed you. By the looks of the response I'm thinking you should get this on the Market!
Never got anything through. Just wondering if anyone else has seen anything like this? A bluetooth (if it can work!) version would be really great.
Sorry for the delay guys, there's a gamebreaking bug in it now, which I cant figure out. And my son is taking up too much time now. I'll send it to you all as soon as I've figured it out.
Cheers,
mockillo
Pardon the delay. Here it is. A really simple way of sending SMS from your PC via your phone.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=O8E6X51V
Just telnet to the IP listed in the app on port 7777, and send:
sendsms¤¤phonenumber¤¤message
It logs to logcat if something doesnt work right.
Cheers,
Mockillo
if u do a little resarch on google (or on Droid Explorer)
you will find this

That certainly looks a better alternative

That's exactly what I was looking for! Brilliant, thanks.
Well as the title says I am in desperate need of help. Now I have just gotten the Touch Diamond and I am not happy with they way things look. I liked the phone by looking at all the Youtube videos and decided this was my next phone. Well little that I knew every video was either a different carrier style phone or has been modded. Now I am looking to do the same thing, but I am looking for someone who is experienced in this field to give me some one on one support. Now I am not a complete noob when it comes to computers but when it comes to the phone yes I am have never messed with modding a phone. This is my first PDA phone. So if someone can either send me a PM or just reply here that would be great. My main goal is to get the most out of my phone. Thanks in advance and hope to hear from you guys soon. Thanks

There is a ton of info on this site and on ppcgeeks.com so the best thing to do is read,read,read. Then you can learn what you like and decide what you want to do. Good Luck!!
Thanks. I have been to numerous sites and they all say what the stuff can do but there is no Tutorial on how to add stuff and config it. Thats where I am running into problems. I would like to change my TF3D screen off this purple color. I was able to finally get my weather to work in my area instead of major cities. Now I just want to mess with the look of the phone. I have the Diamond TF3D Config installed but all the themes I want to install on the phone wont come up in the Path folder. Thats another area I could not find a Tutorial on. If I had one of those or at least a video of how to do it that would be great.

flash a energy rom, they are great out of the box and they have a custom look to them. just follow the on screen instructions and you cant go wrong. just make sure you flash hardspl first.
Ok, Thanks. Now I know I have seen some out there that wont work for my phone. Can you tell me which one will work. I have a Verizon Diamond and I dont want to brick it.

I don't think there is a HardSPL/Unlocker for the Verizon version.
You may only be able to tweak your shipped rom.
Ok, well I am not having a problem I would like to get solved. Once I get this solved I am all set. Also do I have to unlock my phone to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5? Here is a Link to my problems with the weather.
A challenge !!!!
Does anyone know of an app which is a 1-click call divert app. I was using one called 'EasyForward' but this no longer works, and has been withdrawn from the market.... can anyone help... PLEASE !! this is an everyday use app.....
Thanks
Ian
PS: The app enables the phone to direct all incoming calls to a user defined number....
what no one ???? no one knows of a way to do this ????
Well, I could code one, but it will take some time. Meanwhile, if you're using Sense, you can set send calls directly to voice mail through the People app. Just edit your contact and check the "Send call directly to voice mail" option.
Could you code one ?? I would gladly PayPal you a few quid for your troubles, this would be of such use to me,, Basically I have 2 mobiles, one I use for work, and one for home. I want to be able just to click divert or cancel when i go to work, or come home, as I dont want to have to tell everyone 2 numbers. Also my HERO is too good a phone to risk getting damaged at work,,,,,,
Hey Ian, I'm a little busy but it's not that hard to code, just that I'm not too sure if it'd work on a 2.1 phone. I'm still a novice at Android coding, so give me a couple of days since I still have a Android assignment to complete for school. Meanwhile, since you're on sense, just go to Settings > Call settings > Call forwarding > Always forward. Give me a couple more days and I'll get you your app.
Thanks mate, but the pic is a bit out of date. I am using (and will continue to use) EzHero 1.0 / 2.1 -update 1 as it is, for me, the bees knees and does everything I want. fast, smooth and stable. If you could create one to work on this, I would be forever in your debt....
Cant wait....... YOU LIFE SAVER !!!
Ian
Alright no problem, I know a universal way already. I shall start working on it now, a couple of hours should suffice.
You could always go onto the market and get "Easy call forwarding" free...
Once set up with number you want to divert to, it is one touch only enable and disable.
Use it all the time when switching between phones.
Cheers Phil-w
i would, but the developer has removed all support saying it was not getting support, so I can not install it on my phone now I have reflashed... I was using that for months and it was great,, thats my problem, now I can not install it...

Didn't you have a nandroid ? Otherwise you could get the apk from the nandroid ?
i know, and you are right, but earlier today i wiped the sd card... i do it every now and then,,, so no, i dont...
Hey Ian, I've completed the prototype, I'll be publishing it to the Market in a short while. I'm still trying to make it save the number you want so you won't have to re-enter it again. I'm trying to recode what Easy Call Forwarding had from scratch, so give me some time before it's as good.
mate, thats great.. what have you called it so I know what to look for ?
Hey Ian, sorry for the late reply. It's called Quick Forward.
downloading now mate,, will send you a PM.
cancell is not working mate....
Do you have a custom prefix? Because I implemented the standard prefix.

i dont understand what you mean mate ??? i simply put in the mobile number to divert to,, 078........
Alright Ian, let's talk on IM, it's faster. PMed you my MSN.
You could always create couple of contacts in your contacts list.
1 for divert cancel containing ##21#
1 for divert containing **21*07966666666# (put your mobile in here !)
Then just use +, shortcut, Person, then select the person i.e Divert or divert cancel.. (or what ever you have saved them as) and place on one of the panels home or where ever you fancy.
Works great on the UK Orange network..
