To: e-mail auto completion on WM6. - Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other

Hey,
with my old Wizzard and WM5, when I used to just write someones name in the To: field, it would go through my address book and find that persons e-mail address.
Now on my HTC Vox with WM6 it will not do that, I have to go into the menue and look at my directory.
Is there any way I can turn that option on, so I wont have to go through 2 menues before?
Thanks,
WA

no ideas?
No one have any idea to change the settings for this?
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone that celebrates it.

start typing and then press right softkey+2

Could you please clarify where the right softkey is? I have the HTC S710 and am using the keyboard.

The right softkey is the key that when you press on homescreen you will get to the Contacts. And when you press the left softkey, you will get to the start menu.

hah thanks, I feel stupid now .
Too bad it does not look into the directory automatically though, as it did with WM5. Is there a way to turn it on?

no

Mail Button softkey

Hi
has anyone been able to change the left soft key butotn from mail to somthign else... like say "New SMS" or New Message?
And how does one stop the data connection without having to use the stylys, On my imate jam i could just hold the red phone down key.
thanks
maybe wm new menu works on treo that changed the keys on my exec
You can not disable the E-mail button on the left. You use the Softkey applet file wich adds a second option. So if you set it to Messaging you will have two options: E-mail and Messaging.
Strange why they don't let us change this. I believe that it must be possible but some Guru has to look at it Seems like they are all in the HTC Wizard-a-like sections
I hope this is what you are looking for.

Like I said, you can change it, but you always keep the E-mail option on the left softkey. So this is the solution I was already using. But thanks anyway

E650 phone

hi friends of the net,
help pleeeease.
when i go into go into calendar i get numbers come up and not letters when the key pad is closed, if i open phone to type on key padi can get the letters, if any numbers have been entered already the numbers do not delete and i have to press the home key and then go back to it again before it lets me write anything, this also happens in internet explorer! after this has happened if i try to access contacts via home page or via menus it does not let me access them.
also my i bar/cursor vanishis sometimes when i am in text messaging.
tried factory reset and it still happens, also had a new phome sent out and the new one does the same!!!! assume its software fault on many phones.
Can you vox owners try these out...
This is regarding my friends phone, member - Wezog. Ive taken a look at the phone and im just wondering if any of you guys out there have these problems?
1 - Make sure your phone is closed (qwerty keyboard is hidden away), using the right soft key or by going into the start menu select the calendar application.
Once in here start typing an appointment, do you find that you have numbers appearing instead of letters?
Its as tho you cannot type any appointments using the keypad, but you have to open up the e650 and use the qwerty keyboard to enter information.
Do you HTC owners get the same problem or is it just the Orange e650 owners, or is it just my friend being unlucky? (being his 2nd phone to do exactly the same thing - hes let orange know about this but apparently has to decide what he wants to do)
2 - Once youve tried the Calendar above, exit out of it and then try and select CONTACTS as tho you were going to call someone either by using the left soft key or by actually going into Contacts in the start menu.
Do you find that Contacts dont display and nothing comes up? My mate has to then soft reset his phone to get things back to normal again.
Thanks in advance for your help, its very appreciated.
Cheers

Frankly - actions like creating an appointment is why I chose a phone with a QWERTY keyboard after all
But for the sake of your test I tried to create an appointment on my closed Vox and it worked.
Pressing a pad key repeatedly scrolls through its lowercase letters + the number, starting with the first letter. The *-key switches between lowercase and uppercase.
Contacts open and work normally after closing the Calendar.
I have an unbranded HTC S710 with the original ROM.
The behaviour you describe is definitely weird. And it happens also after a "Clear Storage" / Hard Reset ?

Letter Recogniser

Hi,
For the last two days on my Polaris, whenever the letter recogniser appears, it comes right to the bottom of the screen so there is nowhere to press to get rid of it, has anyone else had this and how is it fixed?
Ta
**Bump** No one??
It's a problem with PocketCM, which is being discussed on their forums at the moment. ( http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?15,8688 )
A workaround is to change the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip\DragStyle -> 1
This makes the SIP draggable. Otherwise, a reboot will return the SIP to the right place until the next time you write an SMS in PocketCM...
Thanks very much for your help! Didn't realise it was PocketCM messing things up

how to disable Left "EMail" softkey

hello,
is anything new about the changing the left softkey meaning? i dont want to klik unnecessary thanks for answers,
kuba
You can't exactly delete it off, but...
I also am a happy owner of a Treo 750.
In my experience with this phone, you can't exactly remove the E-mail link off all together, but you can 'add' a function to that left soft key.
All you need is a reg edit program, and....
Go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2
For Default data change the text of the left soft key. For example I changed mine to Messaging.
Change Open Data to the exact location of a program link.
For example if you want to change it to the messaging program you would change it to "\Windows\tmail.exe" Note that the quotes must be included.
When you have everything set with the name and file location....exit and soft-reboot your phone. Now, when you click the left soft key, it should come up with the program link that you wanted with the email link next to it.
It's still there, but at least you can use it for something else as well.
Hope that this is useful to you and good luck...=)
