Description: Were you a Treo 650 user? Miss the old threaded "Chat Style" of the text messages? Well, you don't have to be sad any longer! With the SMS Threader application, you can now send and receive your text messages just like you used to! The program will even automatically open even if it's not running! All threads are automatically backed up as HTML files, for easy viewing on any machine!
PS - If the program does not function correctly after installation, your device may need a soft reset.
Thanks, i'will give it a try.
looks good, fonts is a bit small on the message text and can't see a way of making it larger
I have had a couple of crashes when trying to select the message thread with my stylus (which did not open it) and by then using the action button.
I have been after this app for ages so thanks for the post

great to see SMSs like IMs, its the application I never knew I needed.
Only prob is the character counter doesn't seem to count the characters, staying at "0/160" even when a message is typed.
Also, annoyingly when in a convo the "X"/"OK" button is not present, forcing you to click Options >> Close to exit the convo. Though there seems to be options to "close after response" etc so this might not be so annoying
PocketCM also does a similar thing and in my opinion has a great interface. A must have application IMHO (http://www.pocketcm.com/)
True, the way this is done in Pocketcm is really good. I used it for a while but the rest of the program isn't what i expected from a good contact manager.
I have been using shogunmark_wm6_threaded and it has been perfect so far.
How do these compare to IMSMS, which I find works very nicely -

palm threaded app working perfectly on kaiser? did u manage to make mms feature to work? which rom are you using? would be great to get this all working
After a nights use of the OP app I found it to be a little annoying, for the following reasons:
1. Constant notification alerts in the top bar, even when I have read the thread. This means your constantly "dismissing" an alert, just to see if the thread has been updated with a new SMS
2. The alerts didn't popup over my full screen app (TomTom) which was annoying as I had to minimise TomTom just to check if I had a SMS or not. Default notifications popup over full screen apps AFAIK.
3. All new message go into the thread, but not into the Default Messaging list, so attempts to bypass it are impossible.
Think I will try some of the other threaded SMS apps listed here.
Am I the only one only looking for a little program that automatically threads all my EXISTING SMS's?? Everybody talks about these SMS Threaders that only thread SMS's sent within that program.
CMContacts is better; it looks at my existing SMS database but I do not need another contacts app (FingerFriendlyFriends is THE BEST contact manager for my purposes...) on my Kaiser!
The best solution would be a sort of a threader-plugin on the existing messaging-application, but as far as I know that does not exist...
Just my 2cts!
Does it transfer the sms's already in your inbox to the threaded program? Or does it not? Does it replace your inbox as the Palm Messaging app, or does it only add a new app? Thx
I cant find "CMContacts" anywhere
Do you have a link to this "CMContacts" software?

the version i downloaded automatically sets your defeault SMS to the palm one, and it replaces my old inbox with the new palm one. Basically i installed it and it became my default SMS application automatically. Only downside to palm threaded app is that you cant use on-screen key boards very effectively, they all cover up the txt input box in a convo. message. Except when you write a new message.
and to Eddythepeddy: i believe it will thread all of your existing SMS...hmm could be wrong about this tho, for me it only threaded my sent messages

PocketCM will also thread your pre-existing SMS.

Sorry, I meant PocketCM (if I remember correctly it was called CMcontacts in the file-system when installed).... But as you can see, some other guys are liking this little free app as well!

Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes, everything works perfectly including mms.
The only negative to it is that the txt will not thread until you reply. For examlpe, if you get in 4 sms from Jane but never replied, it will show up as 4 different sms. Once you reply, they will all fall into a single chat (threaded sms) and will stay like that. You ONLY have to reply once to get all future (and past) sms's to thread.

anything special you did to get mms to work correctly? I (and most people here) get a memory error when trying to send mms.
You can get all sms to thread regardless under options. There should be a setting to thread all messages.
please help me guys with your wizardry.
yesterday i reset my phone because it was freezing again and when it booted back up, i had no text messages there or emails. also i can't send/receive any more because the option is greyed out. any ideas on how i can get my text messages back and restore functionality of my email?
is there any software to do this?
i have backed up with sprite backup and pim message backup but this is after i lost the sms's and emails. has the vario lost those files or stored them away as backup/archive? would anyone know if i can access my database files to see these sms text messages? what are the filenames for sms messages? i am not worried about emails i just want to get to my sms messages.
thank you
varioIII-lover
my cemail.vol is about 6mb in size. i backed it up and looked into it with wordpad. in there are all my text messages i lost! but new ones have come in on the phone so where are they being stored?
what program can i use to view cemail.vol properly to see dates that the texts came in?
also, what files can i take off this phone by hand to restore when i hard reset? i want to take off the quick type database for the quick writing of words, i don't want to have to do that again! any tips?
getting desparate now! :'(
thanks.
does anyone know where the sent items are stored if not on cemail.vol ?
wow, no reply.
bump, any geniuses around?
come on have a go!
Hi
Is there an app that allows you to send and recieve txtx from the G1 through the PC ?. I have a nokia and use pc suit to send and recieve txt through pc at work. Just wanted to know if you can do something the same on G1/Android ?
Google Voice. Get an invite, setup a new number, and send text messages through "voice.google.com" with that new number.
just use an email address?? I send/recieve texts from the wifey all the time from exchange. although it would be awesome if there was a program to redirect all incoming texts to an email address so if someone were trying to get ahold of me, i'd know now and not 8 to 16 hours later. (prisons don't allow cell phones.)

I thought about posting this earlier.... there's a huge downfall to it: getting people to actually text that new number.

I could see the difficulty in that lol.
Although, what I did was go to "contacts.google.com" and create a group of all the people I text on a regular basis. Downloaded "Contacts GroupU" from the market, then re-sync'd my contacts. Opened up Contacts GroupU, long pressed the group name and selected "Send SMS." Finally, notified them of the new number.
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.
Hello XDA.. Fairly simple. I'm getting unwanted calls at 6am from a whole batch of numbers. I tried for a while the built in Do Not Disturb, but it's catching personal calls too (which may not be in my contacts).
I want this operation to run only between *0600 and 0900*. Reject call, send canned SMS requesting the caller to contact me via SMS "Please send SMS if its important" instead.
Tasker can do this? Thank you kindly ilu
