Is somebody able to create a shortcut (.lnk) or a registry tweak which opens directly a new blank MMS on WM6 ?
That was not very diffictult on WM5 but I don't find the solution on WM6.
Have a look here...
http://blogs.msdn.com/mikehall/archive/2005/08/22/454922.aspx
if you edit the following file and rename it, you might get a reult.
I cant edit this on my PC at work though.
This works with WM5, but unfortunately with WM6, if rename the target from SMS to MMS, it opens only this :
It works for me with SMS on WM6
Make sure you have the option unchecked to automatically open your Accounts list.
Other than that, it should work fine
It doesn't.
The option is unchecked.
That's the limit of my knowledge on this subject
Hope somebody else can help
In my case, I change the Softkeys...
Create the following keys and Strings in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113
112 is the left key and 113 is the right.
Set Default to what you want the key to read (ie. SMS)
Default = SMS
Open = tmail.exe
Now for each key create a new string named Open and set the target path.
Turn off the phone, wait 20 sec. soft reset
Tanks for help.
I can create a shortcut for all programms, that is not a problem. Create a shortcut for SMS is not a problem. But a f...ing lnk for a new MMS is impossible.
I think that on WM6 MMS is a mail plug-in, not an application.
Any other idea ?
I wouldn't worry about it too much, apparently in the newest version of arcsoft MMS they seperated sms and mms again, so the old link should work again. Now I just have to find that thread again to see if someone put a cab file for it yet.
Great news ! Thanks Xeno1
Sorry to raise your hopes only to dash them again. Apparently, so far at least, the only way to get this to work is to install it by cab to a ROM that was cooked without MMS. If you install it over the top of an already installed version or cook it in to the ROM MMS quits working all together. I'll let you know though if anyone figures out how to fix it.
OK, thanks for the news.

+1/bump! Really interested in this shortcut.
In Windows Mobile 6.1 the sms was now threaded.
Which is good but i have some question
how to display the received time in the sms.cos for now it only show date.
thx
I have the same question.... Maybe show something like 2/13/08 5:32 PM next to each message in the thread would be excellent
I would also like to know how to delete an specific message from a thread. I tried click/hold, but only displays select all. There's no delete option for just one message.. only the complete thread.
Same thing here.. Can't delete specific sms.. the only thing that i can do is to delete the entire thread of sms.. =(

While viewing the thread, use your D-pad (arrows) to select the desired message to delete, it will turn blue, then you can delete/forward/etc.. to that SMS, this is also the ONLY way you can forward a message.
what about searching all your texts? you used to be able to type in anything and search for any text with that word in it. it was so helpful and i dont think u can do it anymore any one know?
thanks for the information, kasush!
i have another question. when in inbox, the choices at the bottom are "delete" and "menu". would it be possible to replace "delete" with "new"?
Is there any way of removing the "threaded SMS" altogether
(i.e. go back to the traditional viewing options??
i did this on the universal but im sure it will work on all devices
Remove Threaded SMS & Return To Traditional SMS
Open a registry editor and navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\
add a folder "OEM" (without the quote marks)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM\
add a dword value "SMSInboxThreadingDisabled" (without the quote marks)
and set it to 1
ta-da! you now have traditional SMS
using Mode sms for disabling threaded msg is much easy go here

SMS Folders
I'm unable to create SMS folders in WM 6.1. Option is disabled. It was very easy with Windows Mobile 6
Can´t ENABLE threaded view
I just got an Acer DX900 with WM6.1 pro and I noticed the sms inbox is shown in the old non-threaded view.
I´d like to use the threaded view I had before in my previous HTC phone.
I´ve checked and the registry key (SMSInboxThreadingDisabled) is not present so I don´t understand why the messages are not shown in threaded view.
Any ideas???
how to change number of SMS (is thread view) displaying on one site (default 12) to other number?
SMS for configuring MMS
Hi all,
my provider (t-mobile germany) have a service to automaticly configure internet and mms on windows handys.
he sends a sms, which I have to "install". This worked on my old windows versions. but in the new one, with threaded sms, the question to install the configuration, don't apear.
Do anyone know, how to install this configuration sms?
greetings from germany.
Harry
The easiest way to change your sms from threaded to the original (classic) individual messages is to go your system settings (start menu, settings, system tab). There should be an icon for text messaging, in there you can switch between classic and threaded.

Nice Job dude!!
Apparently this has been answered before but I'm sorry I can't find the answer -- I HAVE searched....
I love my Tytn 2 but what has always annoyed me is the number of clicks to get to a new SMS screen:
start -> messaging -> sms/mms -> menu -> new -> sms
I have to make sure i dont accidentally press MMS -- I never use MMS and I dont know anyone who does! Never seems to work between different phone types anyway.
I'd like to hack the registry to get rid of all MMS options if possible.
Also any shortcuts to get straight to the "new SMS" window ?
Thanks
Dave
Actually, your second question has already been answered in your other tread (but nice to see you posting in the right place)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=823570 Just note that there shouldn't be a space between "-" and "body".
After renaming this file from .txt to .lnk just transfer it over to your phone and run it. Or even better, first transfer it to your phone as text file, and then rename it to "New SMS.lnk
Running this shortcut will get you to the new SMS window. For easier access you can bind it to one of the softkeys to this shortcut (you can use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279544 ) or copy it to "/windows/start menu".
You can also create shortcuts with filled recepient filed this way, and even with filled body. For example, if you often message someone with phone number 1234567, you can use this in the link file:
"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "1234567" -body ""
putting something between quotation marks after -body will insert this text into the massage.

Yeah sorry about posting in wrong area..seems to have got someones back up.
Have tried this - followed instructions to the letter... the .lnk file appears as a folder. Clicking on it does nothing (have tried renaming both before and after transferrirng it). I dont have a /windows/start menu folder as far as i can see (cant even see a windows folder via synccenter or explorer) - HTC Tytn 2, WM6.1 on Vodafone UK
Anyways, I think the other suggestion of going via contacts is easier.
I still want to know if poss to remove MMS options by tweaking the registry though. These options seem to have been added to WM6 -- didnt have same options in Wm5. I have been using WM for years so should know my way round by now!
Thanks for your help.
Just go into your setting and choose to go to the sms account and not the account picker.

Hey all,
I'm looking for the same answer. I'm running DCD 3.3.4 and cannot get threaded SMS to work, though Vito Chat works well. Vito will intercept any incoming SMS, but I want to use it with my HTC Home and cannot figure it out.
Thanks in advance, F
mortscript can help you with this.. if you want to change the default messaging app.
i suggest you search in the MortScript Examples thread..

You must have a registry editor!
go to:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSINBOX
in the string "1" write

If when you push the sms button, nothing happend, the problem is that you write wrong the path to sms chat; check if it work with or without te " and if you have sms chat installed in an other directory.
Partially working
Hi. I'm also using Spb Shell 3, and it is starting Vito SMS very well. It's just a matter of making sure that the app path is ok. As a suggestion, what I use to do is in the PC with Windows Explorer I navigate all the way to the executable, and the copy the path from the explorer and paste it on the registry (directly on the phone via MyMobiler, or on the PC using CERegEditor). So, on the main screen, when I press the SMS button it goes directly to SMS-Chat.
What is not working is, when I go to the Contacts panel and press the "Send SMS" button, it goes to the app, but not directly composing a message, so I have to browse and select the contact. Is it possible to start composing directly from the contact panel?
Thanks in advance.

This may or may not work for the Contacts panel, but try modifying the registry key and append open:%s outside of the quotes.
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSINBOX
1 -> "\Program Files\Vito\SMS-Chat\SMSChat.exe" open:%s
Seemed to work for me in MS2 Contacts. The unfortunate side-effect of doing this though, is when you select the SMS icon on the Now screen, it goes to the compose window (and addresses it to some unknown string like "Service...").
i changed this registry entry
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSINBOX
1 -> "\Program Files\Vito\SMS-Chat\SMSChat.exe"
from the now screen it opens sms-chat(good)
from the contacts it opens sms-chat(good)
from the map messages in spb3 when i select messages it selects sms-chat(good)
from the map messages in spb3 when i select compose new message it selects THE ORIGINAL WM program NOT GOOD.
were is that second entry located in the registry?
it seems 2 entries are used, one for messages and one for compose new message
I have encountered the same "loading screen" problem when restoring sms from the old builds to the current new hero builds using Backup for Root Users. This is what I did to solve it:
the logcat reveals this missing table field "index_on_sim", thus using a sqlite editor, I compared the old mmssms.db and the new mmssms.db files. The missing field in under the sms table so all one need is to ADD the new field "index_on_sim" with type INTEGER. Upon careful observation, this field is used with value "-1" for incoming sms, not for outgoing ones.
Thus, I used the following sql commands:
1. to check for the correct index_on_sim rows with non-empty service_center info
=> SELECT sms.index_on_sim FROM sms WHERE service_center IS NOT NULL
2. to modify the above index_on_sim rows with '-1'
=> UPDATE sms SET index_on_sim = '-1' WHERE service_center IS NOT NULL
okay once done, verify that the rows are updated correctly and save the db.
push the edited mmssms.db to the Backup for Root Users folder or directly into /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases.
That's it! Your old sms will appear in the new hero build.
Attached is the sqlite program. ( To be used in linux/ubuntu )
Anyone knows how to automate the above process with a script??
nice. i'll have to try this. thanks!
edit:
It worked great! Thanks again!
edit2:
Not sure why but I can't mark any of my new recieved text messages as read and the text messages that I sent have an icon to the right of it (notification? information? something).
I'm having the same problem also after editing the mmssms.db file
This is what worked for me i got it from a post on another forum here is a link to the original post: http://android.modaco.com/content-p...-2-versions-based-on-the-new-update/page/800/
Code:
adb shell
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db
ALTER TABLE sms ADD COLUMN index_on_sim INTEGER DEFAULT -1;
(Press Control-D)
exit
