Threaded SMS: Missing time stamps - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi,
I've been noting that old messages (those not sent/ received today) in threaded view do not display the time at which they were sent, only the date. While it's a minor annoyance I'd really like it to display the time in addition to the date.
Is there a fix/ tweak for this?
I've seen this mentioned with respect to Heralds upgraded to winmo 6.1, but the threads offered no solution.

Any help would be appreciated.
Ps: on the first page of the last link there is a registry fix to increase the input space for new messages when typing in threaded view... I just tested that, and it works great... for those interested.
Edit: I suppose this might have been more applicable in the general section, but I'll leave that to a fortunate moderator to decide

Annoying SMS Problem!

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

no sms in Inbox on incoming sms. please help

Hello everyone and thanks for the great forum.
sorry if I'm repeating someone elses question but the search proved fruitless.
My Kaiser receives an sms but gives no notification of it nor does it show in Inbox until after exactly 60min. (got this far now after sending myself one).
Then it will notify me according to my notification settings and the arrival time shown is 60 minutes earlier (sometimes less).
I know that I have received one because it comes out of standby and the clock shows that it is working on something. It just cannot get at it which can be really annoying.
I have lots of stuff on the Kaiser and do not want to hard reset yet. Surely the sms should at least show in the inbox?
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Spec:
Kaiser originally locked on Orange UK now on o2 Germany.
HTC WM6.1 3.02.405.0 WWE
Radio 1.58.26.20
Software:
ilauncher, spb stuff, Kaisertweak, Pocket informant, Theft alert, Resco stuff, couple of SatNavs, Net CF 3.5, ip-dashboard, lots lots more
phoneweaver and other notification progs that took hours and hours to set up with profiles.
Mortbuttons with piles of shortcuts and menus.
UPDATE 11.12.2008
Changed the ROM and Radio to the following:
Hard SPL 3.56
ROM from BBR HTC 2.0 based on HTC 3.34.00.00
Radio 1.70.19.09
Anyone have any ideas as to what I could try next?
Thanks a bundle
bumping this thread up.
Hmm, theft alert.. doesn't that one mess with SMS? Most of these progs have features to silently activate them via SMS, and in order to do that it means they must intercept the messages before the system grabs them, evaluating them and forwarding them to the system if they are not trigger messages. The program could screw up and not forward the messages to the system correctly.
I'd try uninstalling that one, and if it doesn't help I'd go on with all others that would somehow be related to messaging.
THANK YOU KILRAH !
That sorted it. I honestly don't know why I didn't try that myself but sometimes it takes someone ike yourself to suggest it and I didn¨t suspect UTA at all. As soon as I uninstalled Ultimate theft alert and did a soft reset it started working.
A clear sign was the error message I got when I received the first sms after the soft reset:
"utamon.exe
InvalidProgramException"
and lots more...
Another soft reset and everything was fine. Should maybe have done a registry search to delete the rest but as long as everything is working I'll leave it.
Thanks again for your suggestion. It helped an awful lot !!
Glad to hear it works!

text messaging issues... maybe

I've had my Kaiser (tilt blah) for about 3 months now, and most of my issues I've solved off this forum through .cab downloads, or just becoming unretarted, but I have some questions about the default text program that I havent been able to answer myself... Everytime you send a message, you get a "message sent" notification that interrupts pretty much everything you're doing after your message. Is there a way to turn it off? Maybe just have a sound confirming it was sent? The other thing is sometimes when I text, the text input box at the bottom of the screen doesn't scroll with the words, making it impossible to see what you're typing or if you made any mistakes. Is it my phone? Or has someone created a patch so fix such things? (both). And that guy that said WM for this phone sucks it a waste of life. This is the best OS for a phone. Just may ned some encouragement from time to time, but It doesnt suck.

Touch Pro issue - Email format when replying in Hotmail

Hi all,
I have a very annoying quirk with the way the Touch Pro sends a reply to an email. When you type an email and space down to start a new paragraph on a new line it looks fine when you type it but when you send it it pulls all the spaces out of the email making the entire thing one big paragraph. My Jasjam does not do this and I am wondering if anyone has a solution.
The strange thing is that it only does it on replies. If i start a fresh email it will actually send it maintaining the same structure I typed it in. Its the same thing regardless of whether i use the original shipped or cooked 6.1 or 6.5 roms.
Anyones help or ideas would be most welcome. Thanks.
Has nobody noticed this issue? or is it not so annoying?
It happens on all of your devices I would expect as I have seen a couple of devices do it. Its possibly a reg tweak somewhere that could fix it.
I have this problem too and it is annoying, but if you click on Edit sender's message while composing it'll send the whole message in plain text, including your line breaks. You'll lose any HTML formatting in the original message.
Many thanks for the tip. I just tried it and it worked fine. It would be good if MS or HTC or someone really clever here could find a system fix for it.
Thanks again for your help.
No problem. I've no idea why it does that, I had to mess around with it for a while and accidently found that workaround. My Hermes and Kaiser didn't have this problem.

SMS Help!

Manilla is showing that I have 1 unread sms, when I check there is not. I click "all messages" to get to the WM inbox but there are no unread messages in there.
I have tried to go to tools and "clear SMS/MMS", this wipes all messages, and when I look in the inbox it's empty, but when i click on the "inbox"tab to show the whole sms tree I see inbox with a blue "1" in brackets. I have also tried a sof reset, with no effect.
Any of you guys come accross this before?
BTW this has only started since I recieved an SMS while TomTom was running, and I had to ignore it.
Cheers for any help you can offer
Perhaps the mail still is on the server. Try to delete the mail configuration and then configure it again.
no luck
I tried to do that, but was unable to delete the "SMS" account. I also tried inserting a SIM card from a different opperator, but this did no good either.
Hey all,
i've got the same problem since yesterday... posted it already in the topic where aqll post their problems with new WM6.5
hope someone has a solution!
I've got an official WM6.5 HTC german ROM
I'm having the same problem mate (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=579772) but now manila home screen is showing i have 2 new messages when in fact i have none. I had a good scoot in the registry but there's nowt there to reset MS's inbox (as far as i could see but then again i'm not a reg buff).
I've read elsewhere that this "new message" is a known issue in WinMo 6.5..
Hoppe there's a fix for it soon...or someone here can help us out
Cheers
Mo
thanks!
Thanks for the info guys.

Yes, I had it on 6.1. Only started last week, but I installed 6.5 last night so I have managed to cure it, albeit in a rather extreme way.

I don't think I want to re-flash 6.5.....but that 1 message symbol is realy starting to bug me!!
For those who fixunreadcount did not work for "ghost" messages.
Try using Ceregeditor it is simple to find, works very well... I used it for my HTC pure. If you have a problem unlocking your phone, there a few threads on forums i read on how to do it. If your phones already unlocked.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sms\Unread
Double-click on COUNT and change the number to 0 (zero). You should see the change immediately on your phone -- you don't have to do a save. If it works then save.
Worked for me instantly! Thanks to rdphoto on ppcgeeks.com, any questions on anything ill try and help, hope it works
