When I open a new email or text message the message opens halfway down the message so I have to scroll up to the top to see the beginning. I am using XDA Mobile 6 which mfrazzz says he used Arcsoft 4.0 if that helps. Also if I press tab or down to move down from the to address field to the body the cursor does not move to the body but just the page moves down. I would prefer it the opposite way. Faria's 3.3 wm5 rom acted like this.

Sorry if this is an easy fix, but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. When I get a new text message, the soft button on the left comes up as "reply" (the right is menu) is there a way to change this to "view" as sometimes I don't want to reply to a text, but do want to view the whole message.
Also, is there a way to add a shortcut (or change one of the soft buttons on the today screen) to start a new text message?
Thanks
intresting question got the same problem
I would like this too!

You basically should create a new shortcut as a program that has the command to invoke a new SMS. You can then use something like Schap's Advanced Config Tool to assign that shortcut to one of the soft keys. You can also assign it to one of the hardware buttons if you want.
You should also try searching. If you type "new sms shortcut" you will get many links to the solution.
Thanks, but that doesn't solve the main problem, in that when I get a new sms, the notification window comes up, and the left soft button is "reply" and the right is "menu" (which does not have a view option) so to view the message, I have to get rid of the notification, go into messaging, and then open the message. What I'd like to be able to do is when the new sms notification comes up, I'd like the left soft button to be "view" so I can just hit that and go straight to the message.
If the entire message is visible in the notification window it doesn't give you an option to "View", that's when you get "Reply". If you get a really long text message that doesn't completely show in the notification window, the "Reply" button will be a "View" button that will take you into Messaging to view the entire message. I'm not sure how to always have it be the "View" button.
gringolian, if you find something to change the reply to view, then let me know!
I had this problem before updating to 6.1 last week. The problem was fixed but now it is back again. What happens is when I open an email and then "ok" out of that email, when I go to scroll up or down to open another, the D-pad just doesn't seem to work. I have to choose the next email by touching the email on the screen. Anyone else experience this??? It is a real inconvenience!!
hey guys.
i'm usin Dr. G's wm6.1 v1.1 rom.
can anybody tell me how to change something on the main screen.
when i get a new message, if i scroll down to message slider, the new message is displayed. how can i change the right function key to "delete", instead of "compose". so that i dont have to open the new message, and i can just delete it from the message slider.
sometimes instead of "compose", "message" is displayed. but when i press it, i get taken to contacts. weird.
thanks hey.
only help in this sec will be through the registry
search for CHome in the reg and from there you will fined the answer
i did it once before
Hi guys, im using a fuze, it has the HTC Stock Rom on it, the thing that pisses me off about it is the damn text messaging in landscape, this is what happens, i receive a text message, i want to reply, so i put it in landscape mode by sliding the screen so i can type on the keyboard, when i start typing the freakin dialer shows up and it gets in the way, is there any way to fix this. its so annoying
Simple. If you open the SMS from your mate first, so you're in the "instant-messaging-a-like" dialogue screen, THEN open the keyboard, you won't get that problem.
If you open the keyboard whilst you're still at the HOME screen, then you'll get the landscape version of the HOME screen, and typing stuff in there will automatically take you to the dialler.
The thing to remember is that if you're looking at emails, SMSs, the Weather or whatever in the tabs in the HOME screen, the application you're using is the HOME app (Manilla), so opening the keyboard up is just going to get you that landscape version of HOME with all the application tabs. It's only when you actually open up an SMS / Email etc. that you enter the appropriate application, and at that point the keyboard is "owned" by that app and opening the keyboard up will get you the landscape version of that app instead of the landscape version of HOME.
Hope that helps.
haha, well i guess i kind of worded it wrong, what i meant to say was when i get the text message a little box shows with the message, when i hit reply which is in the lower left corner it enters the messaging application once there i put the typing cursor in the text area, when i slide up the screen to use the keyboard it kicks me out of the messaging app and then takes me to the dialer. once i close the dialer then i can continue typing
Turn off the notification box. When you get a new SMS, you get a green indicator against the SMS tab on the HOME screen anyway, so it's not necessary. When you get an SMS, it'll still play a sound and give you an indicator on the top bar. This'll get round your problem.
coming from a tilt and many other windows mobile devices im very used to the way the text messaging works, i really like the pop up notification more than just a green number.
Same Problem with MDA VARIO II
I got this problem with the MDA Vario II and I still get it with the TOUCH PRO
It would be great to fix it.
I'm not sure why this happens this way but just about every time I go to compose a new SMS, as soon as I start to type in the main text field, it puts up the 'select' cursor which is the little blue box that hangs over the 'W' key on the keyboard.
If I need to start typing and the first word starts with a W, I have to wait about 5 seconds for this cursor to disappear so I can then hit the letter. How the hell do I remove this and stop it from happening? I'm not sure what to look for in the settings but as of yet haven't seen anything. I'm on the latest version and it's been happening for the past few revisions.
Oh and I'm using Smart Keyboard Pro if it's possibly a keyboard issue and not the fault of Go SMS Pro itself.
[EDIT] I think the problem is that when I go to compose a new message, the cursor is blinking in the field to type but my keyboard isn't on the screen. When I click the field to get the keyboard to pop up, then it brings up the cursor which you'd normally see if you want to select text and/or past something from the clipboard. I just tested in Dolphin HD and this doesn't happen this way as the keyboard presents itself as soon as I click in the url field.
