pocket outlook shows messages scrolled - General Topics

Hi,
This is my first post, so I'm a bit uncertain as to where it belongs...
I have a Trinity, but the problem is more Windows Mobile related, I guess.
When I open a message in pocket outlook (any message, IMAP mail or SMS), the message openes, but scrolled to the "second page" (even when the SMS is only 3 lines long)...
I can scroll up, and see the whole message; but it's annoying.
Does anyone know how I can solve this?

It is to do with the settings of Internet Explorer when the navigation is set to scroll line by line instead of jumping between links.
Installing jasjamming's Pimp My Black tweaker (search this form for it) and disabling this D-pad behaviour fixes it.

Hmm... actually this doesn't solve the problem, it is still "scrolled", but only till the second hyperlink (being the from-line, which is almost at the top).

quick questions using Messaging in WM2003 on XDAiis

Hi There,
more questions I'm afraid
1. Is there any way to remove the 'outlook e-mail' (activesync) off completely on the XDA - i don't use activesync to sync mail at all - I use POP3 and it really annoys me that when I press the messaging button, I have to switch to a different mail / SMS account
2. For some reason, if i include an apostrophe (') in my text message, the message length instantly shortens to 70 from 160 - does anyone else's do this - how can I stop it. Update - tried turning UNICODE off which solved the shorter messages, but now 's come out as ?s
3. Whenever I send a multi-message sms (usually by accident because of the above) my recipient just recieves a single blank SMS - any ideas?
Cheers Guys!

I have the same problems as you (1 and 2, but not 3)
1) I don't think you can remove the ActiveSync Outlook E-mail or change the default messaging. I tried this a had to do a hard reset!!!
2) Not sure about the apostrophe (') thing, I think it must be something to do with the fact that because it used the auto text it takes up more spaces in the text message. You can delete it but it does take longer. I just use the typing prompt which shows you possible words for your current selection and this avoids the auto apostrophe.

Hi
I have setup the email button on my XDA IIs to launch pocket outlook with my pop account as the default. See my post at the end of this thread:

Hi Nigel
Thanks for the Advice - I tried changing this to "Text Messages" and just "Text" but this doesn't want to work - any ideas?
Thanks
OK, close the messaging app (completely) from settings --> system --> memory --> Running Programs.
Then goto Settings --> Personal --> Buttons, and change button 4 from messaging to some other program. Tap OK, use the messaging button to start that other program, quit said program, go back into Buttons, and change button 4 back to messaging. Try to launch messaging.
It much cache the old info somehow.

Nice one, that worked a treat!
I'll remember that one from now on!
Thanks,
Dom
annoyingly, not working for me yet
@XDADOM - what did you write for the account/service name?

The apostophe problem is a bug that HTC are working on...I've got an XDA2 with 2003SE and I have the same issue!

Outlook mobile

I have a really annoying issue. Every time I open an email or text on my HTC Kaiser, it opens it half way down the message.
I can not get it to open at the top of the message so I can see the header and first line.
any Ideas?
Turn off smooth scrolling in PocketIE.
You must have turned it on through one of the tweak programs.
Tweaks2k2 or SKTools can do it.
this behavior started happening for me too. it would seem to have been at the time I installed "Kaiser Tweak". but the application doesn't let you control smooth scrolling in PIE?
rob_pinnington - what worked for you?
edit - ok nevermind in Kaiser Tweak it's 'D pad navigation' that did it.
weird.

Buggy messaging scroll

Hi all,
since few days I've a strange behavior from pocket outlook when reading messages.
When I access any message, it gets displayed from the second page like if having pressed down on the scrollweel. To properly see first part of the message, I've to press "up" (or scroll up).
The same when accessing SMS messages...
To be noted that if displaying a message having scrolled it to the top, changing screen orientation (portrait/landscape) I get the message automatically scrolled down like if having pressed once the down button...
Before, display was correct getting message displayed from the beginning (with the sender + subject).
I tried to recall what I may have installed corrupting something (in the registry?), but I do not find anything that could have caused this behavior.
Any help?
Thanks.
Found, it is a tweak on KaiserTweak
The post with the solution...
When using PocketIE/D-Pad Scroll Navigation email could start half way the email.
Please see below (from Dutty's ROM thread) : maybe is is wise to disable the tweak or remove the Adviced notification

I finally figured out the fix:
Load up KaiserTweak and Disable PocketIE/D-Pad Scroll Navigation.
I had enabled this earlier because it sounded cool, but apparently Outlook has issues with it.

I agree it should be removed from KaiserTweak, or at least not marked as suggested

Text messages opening

Hello,
I have Tytn II, WM6.
When I go to inbox and open a message the phone opens it at the end (scrolled down to the bottom).
Is there any setting that I might have altered on my phone, because all up to now messages that I have recieved and read were opened at the beginning of thex, not the end.
Thanks.
Solved
the problem was in D-pad scrolling.

HTC HD2 niggles

I wondered if anyone has some advice for me? I am quite a novice with this device (or any device):
1. I cannot download a working Flash player. Any suggestions?
2. When I try to reply to SMS messages in a thread, often pressing on the 'Tap to compose text' box simply doesn't work. If I press the last incoming message and get the menu 'Forward/Deleted Message/Copy to SIM/Move to SIM/View Message Datails' 1-2 times, it then sometimes works.
3. If I am using the internet (Opera) and I access a Google Map, it comes up as a narrow strip of the map (about one inch of the left hand side, but the whole length of the map). Do I have to use the Google Maps app (I do have this).
4. My e-mail is a hotmail (Windows Live) account. I prefer to view this as per the full PC page. Sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. Whatever, I always get an error message and am told XML parsing has failed (syntax error) and am given the option of reparsing document as HTML - this is the point where it either works or doesn't.
5. In IE, I cannot enlarge and reduce pages using finger and thumb. Is that normal? I can do it in Opera.
Thanks
