Text Problem!! This really sucks - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Ok so when I get a text or email on my TF3D and I open the email or text. Then I hit reply/open the qwerty and the box comes. then I start to type and it goes into my phone!! I x the phone out and im back to main display with qwerty open. So then I have to go back in messages select message and reply.
Anyone else????? This is frustrating when you are trying to type a quick message.

Yes i have encountered this problem, not just with texting. Try pairing with bluetooth in landscape...i bet the passcode prompt does that same thing?

If issues like this dont get fixed I will dump this in the garbage drawer, sad but windows really needs to get stupid stuff like this figured out. I never have these issues with RIM and other devices.

Perhaps try a cooked ROM such as fireROM?? if you leave the ROM as it was when you bought it then you havent played the game!

This is my first windows phone that has had the hardware I like so I havent really done all the cooked and hacks etc..
Can you link me to this I would love to keep this phone.
Thanks!

I think I have read somewhere that you should give it a sec or 2 before you actually start typing the qwerty.
This way you will have the same window infront of you.
Regarding BT, that really sucks but still a one time thing if it's a headset and you do not pair devices every day...
But all in all, I think we shouldn't be worried.
This is just S/W ****ty bugs that will be fixed when we have our great chefs cook their 3rd or 4th ROM release we will have satisfying results.
I just hope this forum gets the attention that was on Kaiser, then we will all enjoy
I remember Kaiser's WM6 ROMs had a similar bug,
Comm Manager kept popping every now and then infront of you and was fixed in time...
We have to keep in mind that this is the start and we will have to be keen on all threads posted around.
I just hope we get all the help from the greatest devs at Diamond forum as it won't be alot different.
Differences in time will be known to chefs and as they cook a Diamond ROM they can add some stuff and release it to Raph as well.
Way ahead of myself aren't I
Alot to look forward to, which is the fun of WinMo IMO
Cheers

the other way of doing it is to wait until the reply screen is actually shown before you open the keyboard.
If i hit reply in TF3d and then immediately open the keyboard before the compose screen has appeared, then yes, it does exactly as you describe.
if i hit reply, and then open the keyboard AFTER the compose screen has appeared, no such problem.
you need to let the messaging app open before you open the keyboard, otherwise the opening of the keyboard triggers tf3D, not the messaging.
Minor bug, and one that will no doubt be fixed soon enough by the devs here.

Dial any contact from the Today screen

I just discovered a cool WM6 feature:
"One excellent new feature in Windows Mobile 6 Professional is the ability to begin dialing contacts from the Today Screen. If you just start typing someone's name, the Today Screen will switch to the phone dialer and offer contact suggestions that begin with the letters you just started typing."

wow, that's really useful. thanks.
Well, this only works if your device has a hard keyboard. since the software based keyboards are not accessible from the Today Screen.

Hmmm. . . I kinda' figured that was a "given", since it was posted in the Wizard forums, and the Wizard has a hardware keyboard. But then, I've been wrong before. . .

Great tip. Thanks. I always hate pulling out the stylus.

Execute sound when the universal is flipped

is this possible? just a thought... saw one of the posts where you can change the sound when you slide a keyboard using other pdas so i thought maybe this is also possible with our universals?
hehe! no need to reply to this post though... only if you know how..

Nop doesn't work. Universals don't have that registry
Check out SlideSound at http://tiermann.co.nr
There's also a thread on it at ppcgeeks. It works with QVGA and VGA now.
It's not dependant on the screen driver or anything, so any wm5/6 device that can rotate it's screen should trigger it.
wow that software works, it crashes sometimes but it works anyway. is there any program that executes a sound when the uni is turned on or when you open it ?
thanks man... just what i was looking for...

It crashes for you? Any error messages, like even a .net error or anything? So far it's only been tested on HTC Apache (6700) with .net Compact Framework 2.0 and 3.5, and I believe someone is running it successfully on the Mogul too. If you could post any errors I can see if I can take care of them.

it crashes sometimes, i dont have the error message infront of me now.. nothing major, it rarely crashes, not like all the time kind of thing so no worries..
Always puzzled me this. Why would you want everyone around you to know you've just opened or flipped your phone?
just for fun, not for people to see me,
or shall the answer is "I need toys"?
He He. Just like my Samsung, with it's musical box tones on the keypad too. Not the thing to forget when you're trying to send a quick text under the table at a boring business meeting though!

Java driving me bonkers!!!

Hi there,
I'm quite new to this site and also just recently got hold of the HTC S710. This is really a kick ass little phone. Like a kid who got a new toy i started installing application, one of them Mxit (www.mxit.co.za/wap).
The 1st thing i realized was that i could not use the backspace key, (the 1 with the blue arrow on it) to erase mistyped text, I had to go to the Menu, Scroll up until I got "back" and the letter got erased, i had to do this for every single letter.
Then I installed Dr. Gonzo's Windows Mobile 6.1 v1.1 Rom. It just got worse, the Mxit application got shrinked somehow and didn't display full screen. but i had my backspace button working But still, its quite annoying not being able to have it in full screen like on my Nokia N80 which i had.
Then I installed Dr. Gonzo's New_Guava ROM v.1.0 OS: 5.2.1623.18129.0.4.5, and it runs like a dream, right about until I installed Mxit again and the application got shown in full screen but it cut off my last 3 contacts including the functionality of an inline editor (shows a bar at the bottom on the live chat screen to enter text) but I can not see this bar because its somehow getting hidden behind my Start Menu.
I read a few posts, and came to the conclusion that its got something to do with my JAVA. Right, i download at least 10 different versions, each and everyone doing exactly what i mentioned above.
If anyone can please help me get this sorted out I would be forever grateful. Sorry for the long post, but I had to describe whats going on.
I'm awaiting replies from anyone who can help me
Thanx...
I understand what you are saying.
This is a problem with the Jbed version for Vox.
I was hoping that some other Java version(other than esmertec) might resolve this. But I have no time to try that now.
Have to finish my exams first.
If you can find the IBM J9 or old Tao Intent versions, do try that.

Hi there,
Does your inline edit work, can you see the bar where your suppose to type your text in and is your Mxit fullscreen is it being cut of at the bottom. Oh and do you use the blue arrow key, does it delete text, cos mine just closes the application completely!!
What JAVA version are you running...!?
Thanx, i'm busy testing some other versions right now, so far not so good. Will keep you posted as well.
Okay.....so has anyone got to test Mxit on the Vox...?! I just received my phone back after being sent away for repairs, took about a month!!!!
But now it s back
Anyway, this morning I flashed the VoxRomNEO_v0.8 onto my phone and WOW this is truely an amazing Rom!!!
Okay, back to this thread, I installed Mxit again, hoping that by now I can have it running fullscreen and hopefully be able to see my last 3 or 4 contacts at the bottom but no luck. It is still the same, I'm tired of reading thru Midlet Bibles and all that jazz.......is there anyone out there who could possibly test this and give me some feedback.....please...!!!
Hey everyone,
Okay so this morning I flashed the WM 6.1 (96 dpi) version for the Vox, and guess what, Mxit works, I can see my contacts at the bottom and my inline edit works like a charm. The only problem I got is when I pushed the Blue Back Arrow button (which i normally use to backspace with) it closes the application.
So now my question, did it work because the ROM runs in 96 dpi, or is it the Java version on the phone which is Jeodek Build ID: 20070425.1.1....?
I'm could not get the version downloaded anywhere, but i did find some with heap size fixes......crossing my fingers that it works!!!
Will keep you guys posted....
Hello again,
Okay, so I got my Mxit to work, fullscreen, being able to see all my contacts including the damn inline edit bar at the bottom....
Now I have 1 problem, can anyone tell me how to change the key mapping of the "Blue Arrow Key" on the front display of the VOX.
What happens is, i use it as a way to backspace and delete text. But everytime i press it, it ask me if i want to close the Java application....
Can anyone tell me how to fix this please....?!

Messaging on the Touch Pro 2

Hey, sorry if someone already made a thread on this, I wasn't sure what to search for to find out, but here it is:
On the TP2, and I'm sure everyone with this phone has noticed it, while viewing txts in conversation mode, if you leave the conversation open and recieved X amount of messages from that person, when you close out, it will still say you have X number of unread messages, and you have to open and close your conversation X number of times before it shows as no unread messages.
I'm hoping HTC makes a fix for this soon because it is really annoying, but I wanted to see if any of you very capable guys here can make a simple cab fix for it.
I've noticed similar problems and I think it's a bug in the TF3D interface unfortunately.
Holy cow, that was my biggest gripe. I just stopped going into the WM messaging and I use the tf3d instead (click on the first msg from the messaging tab) and stay in there. It works right.
I almost always use the TF3d interface and I still have go occasionally go back in and enter the message again to get the indicator to go away, even after I've responded!
Agreed I hate it. I am not using the HTC interface (went with SPB) but if I get messages and chat in the SMS window it will not mark them as read. I HATE IT!
I haven't tried using the TF3d to see if it works better. I always used the default WM home screen cause I like it better. But either way, yeah hoping they will fix it lol It did it on my TP also, but only after I installed the latest update. With it being on that and on this one, I almost wonder if it wasn't a glitch and maybe it is intentional idk
I have also noticed it too. My old touch pro did the same thing. I have noticed on the touch pro two it changes between two different styles of text messaging screens, it really messes me up because the send button ends up in different spots.
when you're on the sms thread and you're talking to person just use your arrow keys to go up towards the one you haven't read. it'll show a closed envelope to the left of the message and as you press up and pass them the envelope opens up. no need to open and close.
Yes from the SMS inbox that's fine, but from the TF3D interface which is easier to get to than the SMS inbox if you're running TF3D then sometimes you need to read it again.
I was hoping they fixed this in 6.5 but NOPE of course not. WHY THE HELL ARE THERE TWO MESSAGING PROGRAMS!?!?!

Exactly my question. I just disabled TF3D and use WM default I like it better. Plus you free up some resources.

You disabled ALL TF3D or just the SMS in TF3d?
I used SBP Mobile Shell as a replacement for a bit, but i had some problems with it too....Are there any other shells out there worth looking at that might correct some messaging issues?
On a somewhat related note, has anyone else noticed that some people you get text messages will be an hour behind? Like you recieve the txt at 5:30pm and it shows as 4:30pm? My TP did this also. I don't know if there is a setting or something...
dont know if yall figured this out but the second post in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585101&highlight=mark+read has all your answers. I installed the program and works like a charm. i now have the "mark all as read" option FINALLY!!!!!!! that little orange baloon with the little number was driving me absolutley nutts.
So i have a USCellular TouchPro2 fresh out of the box....
Somehow its stuck showing 1 unread message in the SMS inbox...i have tried deleting every text from the system...installing the InboxExtender and using the mark all read option..the rogue (1) still appears....anything else i can try ??
Thanks
UPDATE --
US Cellular says its a know bug that they are working to resolve....no ETA for the patch of course.....

Hey, on this topic, how do I make it so my default sms is the windows version instead of the HTC one that?
Anyone have a cab for that or can help me for the 6.5 update VZ tp2?

+1 I wanna know this too except for the TMOUS version. I kinda hate the TF sms. Also has anyone noticed thatg when you type in a recipients name, it brings up ALL their numbers? My Tilt used to only show me mobile numbers for the recipient (which makes sense since land lines and faxes dont typically receive texts DDUUUHHH!!!) but i have on occasion sent a text to a friends home phone or fax!!
+2 I also would like to know if i can make WM my default SMS.

SMS Bug?- long time before i can type (only with swype)

i am using swype 3.9 (version 2 caused bugs with my camera but didnt have this bug)
i click on a message and go to reply, i am swyping all over the place but nothing appears about 10 seconds later i can type, i have the htc patch for sms and i have no lag at all if i used standard keyboard its only swype
any one got any solution?
I have same problem - more like 5 or 6 seconds for me. I have just learned to live with it as I like Swype so much I could not do without it. I would like to know if there is a fix for this (I am not a techie so really would not know what the conflict could be).
I am running Artemis Rom ver 6. (This is soooo good)!!!
Are you using conversation mode? Usually its caused by have multiple messages from one person and the phone is trying to load them all. Wanting a fix for this too. Switched back to traditional; mode for now..
Me too, same problem. Can anybody help?
you can actually start writing. everything I'm typing in the "unresponsive" time, is filled in correctly after a couple of seconds.
I would suggest it's due to the version of Swype you have installed and by the sounds of it, you have the T-Mobile one. I had the same slow response from it, reverting back to the old Omnia version corrected the issue.
However there is a modded version of the T-Mobile one available now (you'll have to search for it, as I believe it will get removed if I post it). Which is working fine and it doesn't require the devices model name to be changed in order to work correctly.
i have the same problem, but i do not have swype...
SO!
does anyone know where i can find swype?
Same for me

Got exactly the same problem, the more sms i have in a conversation .. the more i have to wait... near 15seconds for a 250 sms conversation... only in Swype, original keyboard do not have this behavior....
xavierdemon : Are tou sure ..? Cause i've tested the version without the devicexxx.txt file (don't remember the filename) .. and it crashed my phone. Do you have this swype and no problem to open big conversations ..?

Try this, it will trick the phone to load all messeges at ones, it's a little workaround until they fix the bug ...
When u enter the sms application to reply an sms press the menu once and then close it, now they should be all loaded....
I don't have any delay with Swype, but I did experience the same thing when I used the one extracted from T-mobile, it was very annoying indeed so that's why I installed a different version.
Honusnap what Rom are you using?
Same problem, but with SPB keyboard, I don't have swype.
So I suppose the conversation mode for SMS is responsible
Hi, I have the same problem, I think I got it when I uppgraded to v.1.43
Hans
same for me
Is this happening when you have a lot of messages in HTC Messaging?
There is a fix for that on the HTC Site (latest SMS update from end of january), also new ROMs don't have this problem anymore.
Ive had this with every keyboard i've used.
I learnt to live with it.
but it agree, its a pain in the ass.
And it only ever does it on sms'.

this is really bugging me also.
the htc fix fixes it for what seems every other keyboard
I use swype, I have this problem but didn't notice this till after loading 2.13 rom.
no new roms dont fix this problem its been around forever. best thing to do is get a non htc messaging rom or just disable it with the tweak
