How to start a new SMS on Button Press? - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
on my Tytn i configured the left Softkey to "New SMS".
There was a programm in the Windows Folder called tnsms.exe which directly opened the SMS Editor.
Now i wanted to do the same on my X1 but the tnsms.exe app does not exist there. So i tried to copy it over from my tytn. The result is, if i map the softkey to this app, it opens up dialog which asks me on which account i'd like to send a new Message (SMS/MMS/Outlook/...).
Then i have to choose SMS and afterwards it opens the SMS Editor.
Does anyone know a way to get directly to the SMS Editor?
Best Regards
LordK

I am interested in an answer to this as well.
I was thinking I would do it with AE Button Plus but then I realised I dont know where the exe file is located I need to run to get directly into writing a new SMS.

KeySwop would allow this, but it doesn't work on my X1 (hitting "browse" doesn't do anything)

I came accross an application to do this in the Kaiser forum - to start a program or go direct to an action. search on "left soft key"
Next to that there was another application called (I think) quick menu, which was cooked into many ROMS on the kaiser forum. Sure the cab exists somewhere, where the left softkey would give a quick list of common actions - e.g. new message, terminate data connection, flight mode, etc. Also on the kaiser forum.
Otherwise SPB menu can re-assign the left soft key..if ur willing to pay for it that is

just use search : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=241099
you can create your own shortcut for left softkey going to
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112] (left soft key entry)
and point Open parameter to:
tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to ""
notice that if you use manilaHD softkeys are mapped in
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\HTC\MANILA\LSKPath] and LSK Text for text label

New SMS shortcut
Place the "New SMS.lnk" file in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs.
Then assign "New SMS" to the proper soft key.
The acual shortcut is:
10#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "" -body ""
edit: see post above it has the same information

Thanks everyone.
That was exactly what i was looking for

can i do this, even if i use the SPB panel as my main panel?

That's so GREAT!!!!!

turn off "message sent" notifiaction

hi there,
is it possible to turn off this annoying notification? Instead of clicking dismiss each time?
and the other question, can you suggest the best way to edit the registry of the device?thx
ps.i just bought tilt for myself, previously i used an 8125
There's a sticky thread with KaiserTweak. Download it, it has MANY tweaks like the one you're talking about. It will fix a lot of annoyances.
yes, it's possible.
use kaiser tweaks or schaps advanced config programs.
1. using a Registry Editor (I use Resco File Explorer), navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox
2. Next, click on Inbox (make sure the Inbox is highlighted) and select Edit, New Key
3. Name the New Key as "Settings"
4. Click on "Settings" (make sure the Settings is highlighted) and select Edit, New String Value
5. On "Value name:", key in SMSNoSentMsg and in "Value data", key in 1
6. Soft reset your device and test it with one SMS
Cheers

For what it's worth, my AT&T Tilt already had that string value in it, and I changed the value data from 0 to 1 and it works great. Thanks!

Softkey Changer

Hi everyone!
I installed some days ago the "SOFTEY CHANGER.CAB" for my Kaiser to re assign both bottom softkeys (NEW SMS and COMM MNGR), the problem is that NEW SMS doesn't work.
After pressing the softkey i get the following message:
(translated from Spanish)
"Could not open `tnsmsĀ“. It could not be signed with a trust certificate or couldn't find dome of it's components. If the problem persists try reinstalling the file."
Any help would be much appreciated since I lose more time finding and clicking the New sms option than what it takes to write one!.
THANXS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have same problem.
Try typing this into the program and see if it works.... this is the line that I use to open it up
"tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to ""
it must be exactly this way..... the quotes must be there and after "tmail.exe" there is a space, after -service there is a space, after "SMS" there is a space and after -to there is a space....
Try this cab

Action Screen in Dutty's ROM and Pocket Informant 8 [SOLVED]

Hi,
Is there a way to edit the action screen app so when you click 'new appointment', 'new task', 'new note' etc it opens in Pocket Informant 8 rather than the default apps??
I'm assuming it would require registry changes, so any pointers as to which entries to change would be much appreciated.
Also, for those not using Pocket Informant, you should check it out. It is much more powerful and much more useful than the default calendar, notes and tasks apps.
Solution: I've managed to solve the problem. Here is a solution for all those interested.
Use a reg editor to navigate to HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen
In there you will find a folder for each shortcut on the Action Screen menu (titled APP_0 - APP_6).
To fix the New Appointment shortcut, select the APP_3 folder. Scroll down and find the entry titled 'path' and change the value data to......
If Pocket informant was installed on your storage card: \Storage Card\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\Pocketinformant.exe
If Pocket informant was installed on your device: \Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\Pocketinformant.exe
Save the entry and then select the APP_4 folder to fix the tasks shortcut. Find the 'path' entry and once again change the value data to the same entry as you used for the Appointment shortcut.
Repeat for the APP_6 folder if you want to fix for Contacts.
I have not worked out how to redirect the notes shortcut, other than having it open the notes program (i.e. it will open the notes section, but not automatically create a new note) but to be honest, this doesn't bother me. If you want it to open the notes in Pocket Informant, open the APP_5 file and change the path once again. Then open the param entry and modify the data to -custom 44555.
I'm sure it is possible to have it open a new note, but I didn't put the effort into discovering the required parameter (because as I said, it doesn't bother me).
SOFT RESET your device and the links will now properly work
is it possible to edit the quit time in the action screen, IE: when you press 'action' and you dont press anything it'll automatically close on its own, is it possible to edit this time to a longer period of inactivity?

I used ssmapa to remap the browser soft button. If i choose iexplore (from windows directory) it works but if i try to remap to another browser instaled by me (Netfront or Vodafone browsers) i always got error messages
I don't find any explanation to this
is there another way to do this? SSMaPa dosnt seem to work with the new juicy rom
i have replaced the calander and audiomanager to Thumbcal and S2P, this works when you press the calander button on home or slide to the music tab. did this by by changing the .exe name nding on what you want to replace and copying the folder to windowsusing total commander. just unpack the cab files or copy from program files

how to create call log shortcut?

I want assign call log to send key long press, but I couldn't figure out how to create the shortcut.
I searched older threads on this, and saw that some recommend VJPhoneShortcuts, other do that with mortscript to mimic key presses but I do not want that.
I am interseted in any of these two:
1. manipulate cprog.exe with a command (which I could not find in any thread)
2. write a micro app using the Phone API / PhoneShowCallLog function (recommended on MSDN forums) but I do not know how to do it
Any help any one? 10xxx
Try this little apps
OR This:
1. Create a shortcut key to \Windows\LaunchMSItem.exe w/ "CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS" parameters ( I think you have it w/ yr HTC home). You can do it easily w/ Resco Explorer or the hard way below:
a.Create a text file and name its as "CallHistory.lnk"
b. 49#"\Windows\LaunchMSItem.exe" CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS as it content
c. put it into yr phone (e.g. /Windows)
2. Then the registry as follow
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112
"Open"="\Windows\CallHistory.lnk"
"Default"="History"
big thanks
oh man, this works perfectly... big thanks!!!
I use phonex for dial and contacts, but unfortunatelly it doesn'T support dual sim phone. WM call log support it, but if I start call history phonex appear and I can't check that number dialed sim1 or sim2. How can I run WM call log instead of phonex?
I solved this problem
