Is there any way to get Palm's threaded messaging to work on the Tilt?
I tried the cab from the Hermes forum, which sorta worked, but it removed "Text Messages" from the main Messaging app. On the home screen, there were two lines that both said "No new text messages", one would bring me to the main Messaging app and one would bring me to the threaded view.
Also, I could not use the dpad to flick between the three. I could only choose "Email" or "MMS".
I was able to uninstall with no issue, but I would really like to see this work.

It does work. The other messaging is for the EMAIL. You should of just left it on and tried to get a txt message.
You got a quick link to the one on Hermes? I had a Palm 750 and kind of liked that feature. Would like to try it on the Tilt.
Found it....

I did leave it on and sent several text messages to myself to enable the threading.
The "Text Messages" option disappeared from "Messaging". They were no longer linked. Messaging ONLY showed MMS, Outlook Email and New E-Mail Account. I would have to leave Messaging to get to the home screen and pick the other text message option.
Once I uninstalled it, "Text Messages" was back in place under Messaging.
If you don't believe me, I can get a few screenshots to show you...
I've installed (on Tilt w/Kaiser ROM) from link above without any problems. Works like a charm!

i had the same result. i rely on the HTC Touch quicklink to get me to the text messaging now. its still better than clicking twice to get where i need to go but you're right it removes it from the messaging page. the hard button also takes me directly to my outlook email box which i dont use either which is unfortunate. like i said i rely on the Touch interface to get me to the txt msging.
fortunately i dont need any of that other crap - just txt messaging.

Sure it works... but does it remove "Text Messages" from the Messaging app like quazimoto have described?

yes thats how it works!!!! you dont need to have that option there. it makes its own text messaging program. Why do you need it to be there on messaging thats what I dont understand ?
because the other messaging buttons take you there by default -so when the other buttons take you there you're at a dead end.
thats why
So change the buttons in setting --- buttons
I like it.... BUT, I keep getting the "Out of Memory" error when I try to send a pic. I don't know if it happened to others, but my MMS feature along WITH my messaging feature went away when I installed the program. Does anyone know if a fix for this? I NEED the MMS feature to work.

messaging (1) try that !
some one pls confirm if SMS forwarding is working on WWE middle east ROM......
Yes, it's working.
If you are using threaded view for the SMS -
scroll to the message you want to forward, then highlight the contact who SENT the message to you.
Click on menu... The Forward option would be available.
If you are NOT using the threaded view for the SMS
Open the message. On the top of the screen you would have the contact who sent the message to you. place the stylus over it and hold it there for a bit. A pop menu appears with the Forward Option.
ahaa thanx lot,
so the trick is on threaded view have to select. nice
Happy to help

Its very irritating. everytime you click on the Contact, it goes into contact mode. You have to click on the contact, go into the contact, exit contact before the msg will allow you to forward.
Is tehre a shorter method? I don't feel like clicking so many times everytime i want to forward a message.
Ok... how do i save a particular sms?
is there anyway to do it?

SAVE? well, you could always move it to another folder.
Yes you can make folders
Goofy, I have disabled threading for the text messages, and that makes forwarding easier..
just placing the stylus on the contact name (appearing at the top of the message) and holding it there for a few seconds - pop up menu - and then forward.
I don't think it's THAT difficult
Besides - having the text messages in a thread/conversation form - I just found it cluttered.
took me a while to find the message I was looking for, because I had to open a few conversations before I could find it.
Well partly my fault, couldn't recall who sent it to me. but then again, in the non-threaded view, it's easier because I can see the first few lines of the text..
I find scrolling easier, than opening a conversation and then scrolling and then closing and opening another one and doing the same - just because the message I was looking for was not in that conversation
When you view emails in manilla (the header in the envelope) the email count does not change, you have to open them in the inbox before they are marked as read, which i suppose is the correct way it should work.
But would it be possible to have the email count change just afer viewing them in manilla?
I get many emails (junk and other nonsense) that i can happy flick through in manilla and know i do not need to read them.
At the moment i have to open and every mail even if i have no interest in its contents?
..
I just delete them straight away from manilla if they are junk

That is great, especially because there is no option in Manila to delete them without opening it or the inbox.
How do you do that?
I dont think this is possible. The touchflo 3D display of email is only really meant to serve as a quick preview. You know.. you get a mail and want to see if its that important one you have been waiting for, so you can get the gist of it via touchflo 3D rather than thrawling through your entire inbox.

i think your right, Its a shame they could not have made manilla email more interactive like the SMS viewer

Yes I agree. Seems like they forgot to add the option to Delete or Marked as Read in the e-mail menu of Manilla. This is really and I MEAN REALLY annoying because I too can see if it's junk or if it's something i need to look at later through Manilla. I don't need the "unread msg count" consistently there in Manilla if I already looked at it in Manilla.
Please can someone fix this without having to burn a different ROM???
Thanks to all.
Hi!
I'm quite desperate. I'd like to start SMS on my Kaiser with one or two clicks. So please recommend me how to make my SMS box the default message box (I'm not using MMS, who does anyway... I mean SMS are so much more popular) and/or direct "Compose a new SMS" or so. I also use HTC Home. Ideally I'd like to add a button in HTC Home which would directly open a new SMS (not MMS).
And yes, I did use Google "site:forum.xda-developers.com Kaiser SMS" + various combinations of words "default", "folder", "quick", "fast", "button", "MMS"...
I also tried several registry and other things tweakers.
Thanks
Btw, if you could recommend an application for quick taking notes, something like primitive drawing or so... PhatPad maybe?
um htc home (with the big clock) has it with one click..
I don't really understand your request, but this might be what your after? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2287306&postcount=6
EDIT:
Also,
When viewing your SMS's do: Menu, Tools, Options and Untick "Display account picker when opening Messaging".

Try installing HTC action screen. It will map the left softkey to be able to create new mms/sms/email/apointment/contact, all with one click of the button. That might be what you're looking for.
Hi,
I am also quite desperate for this. I will try to explain what is that we are after.
When composing a new SMS message we need to follow the following steps.
1. Go to Messaging Application
2. Select SMS \ MMS
3. Click on Menu
4. Click on New
5. Now we need to select SMS from the list that shows MMS / SMS / Voicemail.
Now here is the problem, we would like to have SMS as the first option if possible (It helps save the click I need to do, if I am using the D-Pad), Alternatively, a direct link to just start composing a new SMS message directly without going through multiple menus.
Thanks
Manik
Hi,
I missed the link of my previous post (#3). Sorry. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2287306&postcount=6
The link was to a CAB to create a "New SMS" link on the left or Right soft key.

wow, from the main screen I tap 4 times with my finger and I'm good to go. That really isn't that much work.

Well, I click on the the envelope icon (1), then I have to click on "Menu" (2), "Go To" (3), "Text meddages" (4), "Menu" (5), "New" (6). This makes SIX clicks.
for me,
Envelope, menu, new, and sms..
Done.
After clicking the envelope, if it opens to email press the 5 way to the right and it will bring up SMS.

Is there a way to delete all SMS Messages from phone? Because they just keep clogging up by contact and you can only delete messages from one contact or X number of recipients but not ALL SMS from the touch of a button.
All SMS's at once? No.
All from one contact? Yes. In conversations, press and hold the recipients name, delete. All SMS's from that contact are gone
Or should it be easier than that?
No i mean all SMS from phone like WM6.5, Select All Messages > Delete

No there's no way of doing it exactly like WM 6.5
<hint, hint>
But I personally tend to think WP 7 is way easier.

Yep I think it could be way easier than that - a prime example being the way you can delete emails on WP7 by select checking boxes. When I'm doing a bit of housekeeping on my phone and decide to purge all my SMS messages, I shouldn't have to 'press, hold, delete' for every single conversation. This is the first phone I've ever owned where there wasn't a Delete All / Purge All option for the SMS inbox so I don't think it's really that unreasonable.
For the record however, I loooove almost everything else about WP7 and this is a minor irritation. Can't wait for mango.
