Hi
I already searched through the forums and also through the WM registry but I can't find a way of changing the the messaging shortcut that appears on htc home above the tabs. Is this a hard coded setting? I receive my sms through vito sms but the fact that I can't open it directly from HTC (besides app launcher) bugs me a little.
Any help appreciated

Find a Soft Key Manager app and link SMS-Chat to it. It's the only way around it I've ever used. At least there will be a button on your home screen at all times.

Is anyone using Extreme Text for its SMS threading application?
I installed it on my Tilt which also has the HTC Home plugin. I am wondering how to change the HTC Home plugin messaging shortcut to launch Extreme text rather than launching the built-in messasing app. I could not find this option on Kaiser Tweaks and don't want to start messing with the registry settings without guidance.
I have also tried using HTC Home customizer, but it does not have this option available.
Thanks,

Anyone out there with some clues/suggestions?
It's a bit more complicated than registry tweaks. How do you feel about hexediting?
Not comfortable as I would hate to brick my phone. What does it entail?
Need some help or advise on a missing feature on 6.1 standard smart dialer that existed on 6.0.
On 6.0 once you search for a contact using the smart dialer if you press down the on the d-pad it will not dial the contact but will open up the contact so you can email or txt pretty quickly. That was way faster than opening up contacts and searching for someone. If you wanted to call just had to press the SEND button.
But on 6.1 when you press the d-pad down it simply dials and the only way to txt is to touch and hold on the search result and even then it will only allow you to text but not email.
I was wondering whether there's a reg hack to get this feature enabled on the new 6.1 smart dialer.
just d-pad down to the contact and d-pad right until u see txt
Thanks for the quick reply but D-Pad left or right will only cycle through the numbers nothing else
hmm are u sure...i'm not doubting just tryin to help
but for me lets say i have a mobile and home number for a contact i just highlight it and on the right it shows m for mobile..i d-pad right to h for home and again to txt if i wanna text the contact
I know you are and thank you
I am quite confused now because I had the same feature (D-Pad right to text and hold down to open contact) on 6.0 are you also using 6.1 and the same dialer build?
i'm using winmo 6.1 i'm trying to find out what build i'm using
Same problem here. With WM6.0 you only have to press the d-pad to open the contact. Once you opened, i got the chance to send sms, send e-mail or make a call. With WM6.1 this ist missing! I think this is probably only a value i have to change in the registry, but where?
If you use the original WM6.1 dialer instead of the Touch dialer it will do exactly what you are looking for.
For some reason when I press the down on my d-pad with the Touch dialer it opens up the last call list, and does not scroll through the contacts list.
I see your in CA so video dial is not really a possibility anyways. If you have KaiserTweak or Shap's Advance Config, set your dialer skin to the WM6.1 dialer instead and see if this fixes your problem.
I flashed the original HTC WM6.1 Rom, and yes, the original WM6.1 Dialer works how i want. But this doesn't look really great, does it?
I am now using DxC dialer with smart dial patch and is working great. Only thing missing is the smart dial in landscape mode. This one is way faster but still miss the HTC dialer :-(
It is only a little vaue in the registry, can't nobody help?
Nobody out there who can solve this problem ?
Perhaps somebody can upload the smart dialer exe file from the oroginal WM6.0 Rom? I would be glad, thx !!
Can please, somebody with WM6.0, look up in his registry an tell me the value's for Smart Dialer ? So i can compare the two version with each other. THX
Push,
something new?
I was wondering if someone could help out here. I finally put HTC home on my Tilt and love it, but... I do a lot of SMS messaging, and I cant seem to find a shortcut/optioon from the home screen straight to composing a new SMS like there is in the At&T HTC plugin. Its a pain in the ass to have to go to messaging, then select new, sms.
Thanks...
there are apps that enable this kind of things.
i would recommend "HTC action screen". it has lots of "new" options (sms, task, appointment,...). you can find cab for this here on forums. after you install this you should assign this app to some hardware button for quick and easy access.
Thanks man. I was kinda hoping to find a way to map it to the PTT button or one of the HTC home tabs...I really didnt want to run an app just to do that but I will give it a look.
Thanks again!
There are plenty of programs that let you change soft key settings, search around. Also a bunch of threads that explain how to set up a shortcut to the new SMS screen, which you can then set to a soft key.
HTC Action Screen is just simple app which pops up dialog with "new" options. if you don't select anything it will auto close in few seconds.
another thing is that if you send messages to people in your contact list, it is much easier to use some contact manager to do that than "new sms" option. i use Finger Friendly Friends, but this is not free. with FFF i'm able to find desired contact and make some action (send mail, sms, mms, call home, mobile...) in few seconds without using stylus.
but if you really need only "new sms" option, kmorris89 is right, just remap one of softkeys to do that. you will find info on softkey remaping here on xda.
Hello all,
I have checked high and low for a solution to remap the sms link on htc home so that when it is selected it does not take me to the default windows threaded sms, but to VTIO SMS CHAT. I prefer the vito version and its very annoying that other programs do not link to vito automatically such as phone alarm etc...I am not looking to remap the hardkeys, i already have a program for that.
Any suggestions are appreciated. thx
Hi,
I'm running run these 2 excellent Diamond skins HTC Diamond Theme for SPB MS2.1 & PocketCM Diamond Theme
Does anyone know if there is a way of remapping SPB Mobile Shell Home SMS tab key so it opens PocketCM instead of Outlook SMS?
I expect it'll be a regedit change but I'm not too sure where to start or what/which entry to would need changing. I've had a look around but couldn't see any posts (maybe I'm blind).
I opened this thread Remap the Home SMS tab to PocketCM but dont havent had to much luck so far
I'm running
SPB MS v2.1
PocketCM v0.25c
Can anyone help please???
No ideas from anyone
I have the same problem
Has anyone figured this out? I would like to remap to SMS Chat and Fun Contacts instead of the default that it is now.
