Hi there, recently got this brilliant device
anyway I accidently start sending a V-Card via sms (a contact), and did not cancel, simply quit the app. now whenever I open the messaging app there is a Draft conversation, that i cannot delete.. (other threads I long press and then I can delete.. allready checked..) anyway would like to know how I can get rid of that sticky thing
thanks in advance!
EDIT: apperantly, under the settings there is a "draft" box, there you can manage and delete drafts

Hi, is there any way to change the left soft key in the messaging app from 'Delete' to 'New', like in WM5? I keep deleting messages by mistake.
Many thanks.

Go to Tools / Options / Message and tick in "Warn when deleting messages in the message list".
Also, make sure you rea all my articles - I think I've also mentioned this in the Mailer Bible.
Thanks for the reply.
However, your solution doesn't remap the soft key. Maybe I wasn't clear. I want to change the soft key from 'Delete' to 'New', as in WM5.
Thanks.

I don't know of any hack to do the trick. (The switch was a deliberate and, IMHO, very nice change between WM5 and WM6. I really welcome it as I need to use deletion to get rid of spam than create new mail or SMS.)
BTW, if you do tick in the checkbox, you won't be able to delete anything by mistake as you'll be shown a Yes/No dialog every time you (accidentally) press the left softkey.
but i was very used to the old way. and i don't delete mails on my device, since they get lost after a while anyway, so it should have been an option instead of getting forced to.
Yeah, i'd also like to do this, i pretty much never delete things, and wouldn't mind having to go into a menu to do it, but obviously i create new messages all the time. I'd also like it to technically be a "new SMS" button, since i rarely send picture messages, but since SMS and MMS are combined in WM6, it would have to specify...

Also wanting this, but all i can find on google & xda-dev is the same answers, you can easily map a today softkey to create a new message/e-mail/pop e-mail or even give you a "new" drop-down list. But changing the one in messaging.....cant fine any answers
I've settled for this:

Hey all,
so i have two very strange issues...
1. Bluetooth OBEX - I can send FROM the phone to any device (That supports it) but I cannot send anything TO the phone from any device. Typically i will get a generic "Device does not support OBEX" error message
-- I have tried sending paired, and not paired
-- I have verified that filesharing is on, and all of my bluetooth options are enabled
2. SMS's not in order - When I installed my current rom (see my sig) And used PIM restore to put my SMS's back, they are not in the order that the conversation happened. If you look @ each day. the messages appear their's first for the day, then mine... its kinda weird.
-- In some instances I dont even see the messages that were sent to me. When I tried making PIMBackup to restore the messages again it said they were already there. I have received some new SMS"s that I dont want to wipe out if I can avoid it but i've never seen this before and it makes no sense
Another thing.. where do I edit the size of text on context menu's ? (asside from the start menu which was using LargeStartMenu)

Hi there,
1.Not all devices are bluetooth 2.0 compliant and I have the same problem sending from older devices.
2. SMS's order can be set in main screen. Select Received on top right
3.Text size can be changed under Start>Settings>System>Screen
There is a tab for font size at the bottom with a slide bar. I have set mine to 2nd last notch from right.
Hope this helps.

Hey MAC, thanks for the reply
for the bluetooth item, this is from my brand new dell laptop or even another att tilt. Even my friends 8125 that was working on some other roms i have problems with now.
the SMS issue is not on the inbox screen its on the actual message history screen. So if I click on an item in my inbox it brings up the coversation thread. In there it shows all of my friends messages first then the ones I sent in reply so instead of .... them... me .. .them.. me. its them... them.. them.. me .. me.. me ... its kind of weird
I had already checked the text size on the screen page. It was set to normal, but the menu's are still huge (see screenshot)

I see re the bluetooth issue. Nt sure as my laptop sends and receives fine from my TyTN II.
If you are using threaded sms then I can't help as I have normal one.
I see you are also using WK Task which comes with the Kaiser. I have removed that and opted for Quickmenu. It is MUCH better, smaller and gives you cascading menus like in Windows XP/Vista. It is also freeware. (File attached). Just place all the files in the zip archive to a folder anywhere on your device, create shortcut if you want, but I suggest you place a shortcut in the startup folder.

Yah I've been working on the BT issue since yesterday with no luck
I am using threaded SMS which is why its annoying me that the messages are not appearing in order...
I use WK task in tandem with QuickMenu... I love quick menu, but I still cant figure out how to fix the font sizes... its every context menu not just the tray apps... even my resco context menu is huge and i have to scroll it to do stuff its kind of irritating
Thanks for the suggestions tho, I hope someone has a solution for me, I really like this rom and dont want to change it
Ok So I just discovered that I am completely retarded and forgot to check the "Accept all incoming beams" option in the beam control panel applet... now, how do I go about fixing my SMS messaging issue and chaning the fonts for the menus? They are HUGE!
Thanks in advance!

Any suggestions on these other two issues? My threaded messaging not being threaded in the right order is really starting to irritate me I can use SK tools to see that all the messages appear in the database but they dont show in messaging correctly

Yup when I restore my Messages its not in order. I truly believe its because of how PIM restores the Messages. All Received First Then all Sent. So to the Device it IS in order. I've posted this thought in the PIM Backup thread. I don't think they've got it figured out yet. Sorry.

Actually I just finished fixing the PIM Backup issue too.. its kind of a known issue with 6.1 If you restore everything but your messaging DB. Clear your messaging DB in the messaging app. Terminate the messaging app process then run PIM restore... run the messaging app and let it rebuild the threads it seems to work.. Also make sure that you set your regional date settings to what your normally set it to BEFORE you run PIM backup... some people believe that this may also be the issue.... so process is...
1. Flash
2. Restore all of your data using PIM backup EXCEPT messages
3. Open messaging and clear your SMS boxes
4. Terminate the messaging application
5. Do your PIM Restore
6. Open mesaging
Worked for me!
1 more issue to go and thats the large menu font size!
here is the thread (and post) I found it on : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1903404&highlight=Create+threads.#post1903404

Yup that only works 40% of the time for me.
Hi there,
I have tried searching to solve this problem but so far have had no luck. When I send a new message to someone on clicking the send button, it sends then the message then goes back to the reading pane. When I actually reply to a message and push send, the message sends but then the reply box comes up again as if it wants me to reply again! This is stupid and I wish that once i sent a reply it would also close. Would be even nicer if it went back to the home tab but just closing automatically would be nice.
Thanks
This is regular behaviour.
So there is no registry setting that can trick it into thinking a reply is a new message instead so it does close? I really don't get some of the choices made in windows mobile abd even more so why the user is not given more options.
Thanks
thread_sms
I have just been looking at the thread_sms.htm and compose_sms.htm
Is there anyway to figure out what difference between the thread view and the compose view causes the messaging window to close.
I really don't get why it doesn't go away of its own accord.
I'm also assuming no one has figured out how to make the sms send once you get back into reception.

That would be very useful
Indeed
Unfortunately your response is about the most anybody has said on the topic
Is there any way to have messaging closes after I hit send on a message. I hate having to close messaging every time I send at text.
Also would like to know is there any way to get the phone to close quicker when you hang up.

Don't know about closing the SMS app automatically, but you can send new messages or reply to received messages without opening the messaging app altogether, so you don't have to worry about closing the app when your done.
While in the TF3D Messaging TAB, simply hit the icon on the right edge of the screen a half inch from the top, looks like a message bubble with a pen.
To reply to a message, simply have the message displayed on the screen and press the Menu option, bottom right, and select reply. When you hit send, your automatically back to the TF3D TAB.
I find I only have to open the messaging app itself once in a great while.

well i don't have TF3D on my phone but i created short cuts for my most common texted people and when i press the short cut it automatically pops up with the person info filled out so i type what i want and hit send then it closes automatically
what I would like to know is if there is a way to keep it from telling me I have unread messages while I'm using thread mode. I'll be having a conversation with someone and it says I have 10 unread messages because I didn't click the title of each individual one because it is in a single thread.

I would like to know the answer to this as well, as it is quite annoying!
I think that in Eten was app send sms or SMSSender which allow you create new sms and after send didn't open messaging window. maybe someone have cab here.
For SMS, just press "OK" (h/w keyboard) or Home instead of the "X" - I've changed the X behaviour to only close the app if I press AND hold the X.
For hanging up calls more quickly, there's a registry tweak that changes the number of milliseconds... I think this is where it was described:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-354596.html
I think it could be done via Mortscript.... please post in DEV forum if you find a solution as this could be used by all
I have a constant on SMS "bubble" on the Home screen SMS Icon showing 1 SMS when there isnt one, the slider has no issues and works as advertised. Any Ideas on how to get that to go away. Thanks.

Soft reset.
how do u guys turn off the sound when sending sms? whenever after my sms is sent, there will be a pop out window stating 'sms sent' and there will be a sound. how do i switch off tt function?
Search!
There are loads of references to disabling the SMS Sent notification on the forum - you can do it in registry or by using something like TD2 Tools.
Personally, I'm trying to get the notification BACK, as occasionally I miss the fact that an SMS hasn't gone!
Cant find any help
I was searching the whole forum for a while and I could not find anything on how to remove the sound when an SMS is sent, I reset my phone and I remember getting the sound to go away just by doing something on the phone and not downloading anything but I cant remember how I did it
Can anyone help by telling me step by step instructions on how to get rid of the sms sent sound notification (Alarm2)
