Hi guys,
I've just been given a Windows mobile 6 based PDA for work, which is replacing my old Nokia, but I can't for the life of me find a way to create an SMS template.
On the Nokia, I could create the template, and then call that up each time I needed it (saving me from having to type (sometimes) quite complex commands).
can anybody please tell me how to do this on windows Mobile?

Cheers for that, but I have actually found a way to do it.
Create a new message,
click on the message area,
Menu > My text > Edit my Text Messages
and that allows you to create a template message.
It's not perfect, but it seems to work.

Does anybody know a way of creating a shortcut to messages and navigating directly to Text Messages. By default it takes you to the last account you were active in.

Do you want to start a new message, or just open the SMS inbox?
V
Start a new message.
Thanks
I've got an app. will post it later, hopefully tonight. Still at work.

This should work if you put the link in something like Pocket Plus.
Unfortunately as WM2003SE upwards you can't specify whether it is SMS or Inbox or MMS etc, so you will need to make sure the correct account is already selected before using the links.
To edit it, open Notepad and drag the file into the window, then change the name in the To section.

Guys, I've posted programs to quick dial and SMS from shortcuts

Tell me how it goes!

PS Anton.Valleyman - these work on the same idea, but have a nice message box on no command line!
Thanks Vijay, the cab responds with not a valid ce cab file. I am trying to install in on a XDAIIs with the latest Rom.
Thanks

Aye, though if you've got Pocket Plus you can create shortcuts to the .lnk and it does the same thing as your prog, but only with the inbuilt icons.
I've got about 15 of them as a separate tab of P+.

Ahh "-transport"....what a wonderfully logical name for it...
Bloody programmers, some give the rest of us a bad name!

pearler - I'm not sure if anyone else had a problem with the cabs, but I've linked directly the executables as well. You'll need a way to make shortcuts though - gsfinder is my weapon of choice.
Ant: yeah, "transport". Who'd a thunk it? [Programmers' joke :roll:]

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!!
Is this possible? I'm new to Windows Mobile and I can't find any way of sending the same SMS message to more than one contact. I've done a search on the forum but haven't been able to find a solution frrom those old threads.
Any new and easy solutions you guys know of? Thanks!
Anyone?
I have a new number with my new WinMo phone and need to let all of my contacts know, of which there are around 100.
I like the following, GroupSMS. There are others as well.
Thanks for that.
The problem with I'm having using that app is that I can't sync my HTC Touch HD with Outlook, it just says "Outlook has not been configured". So I have no way of copying the contact from my phone to Outlook and hence am unable to create any groups in Outlook to sync back to my phone.
Help?
Hmm, Ok, I don't use Outlook so don't know how to help with that. May want to bring up those issues within the GroupSMS thread itself, see if others can help.
In WM6.1 the standard messaging client allows for SMS to a lot of people. Simply press the TO: button to add additional people. The format goes like this on mine when auto inserted from the contact list:
Xda Developers <8085551211>; Thresher <8083332222>; etc
When I am typing out multipl contacts in SMS i simply type the name, then hit enter, I then type another name, choose it and go from there.
It sounds like that is what you were asking but you got a lot of varied results. Perhaps groupsms is easier to use or something but I do not know. You only need what wm6.1 has to do multiple sms sending.
Is your Outlook (not Express) in fact setup and operational from your desktop?
i just start a new sms
click [to] text
add a contact click [to]
add another and so forth
I can't understand how it's not an easy thing for MS to implement, if I have a group set up called 'work', in the To: box, I put 'work' and it text's to everyone in the work group? Surely that wouldn't have been hard to implement?
Hy guys! hasty said, I need a way to determine what email message is currently opened in Pocket Outlook.
Here's what I've done so far:
1. Created a Managed Service (there's a library available online for this)
2. The Service is listening for when the user opens Pocket outlook (Messaging).
I can detect that an email message has been opened, no problem. But the thing is that i cannot find out which one
Does anybody know of a way to find out which message was opened in Pocket Outlook?
Any suggestions, or if you have any ideas i would greatly appreciate it!
Regards,
Gabic
Alright, just so you know, I've found a somewhat different approach to my problem.
Instead of listening all the time for a user to open up an email message, I instead place a new item in the context menu that is displayed for an email. I've found one good example for this in the Sample Code provided with the Windows Mobile 6 SDK (right under my nose), so just in case you need it, here's the location (name is self explanatory too)
\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Samples\Common\CPP\Win32\InboxMenuExtensibility.
It's not managed code, but it will do the trick
Cheers everyone,

Hey everyone,
I've wondering this for a long time and couldn't find a solution to my problem. I have samsung i780 and have upgraded it to windows mobile 6.1. It comes with the SMS displayed as a chat conversation, which is neat. I want to backup all these conversations, as they are.
When I try most SMS backup software,(like iMobile SMS backup or Godswmobile SMS transfer) they backup all the messages, but they don't save it in a conversation way. They split them into sent or received smses, and its really hard to make sense of things and its tiresome.
Is there any software that can save the entire conversation as they are displayed in wm6.1? (i.e sent-received-sent-received etc)
Or at least someone can think of in this way:
In the conversation window, I can select all, and then copy the messages to Microsoft word or Note. The problem is, it shows very few messages at a time(as the screen is small, so only like 7 or 8 are displayed at a time), and I have to keep clicking on 'Older' to go to the very first sms, which is like a 1000 click before. And its tiresome to copy/paste it in the word, and if one small error, you are pushed back to the very recent sms chat.
Cant I just access the main html/xml file on the mobile where all of this is stored? Anyone knows how to retrieve the file where all your SMS chat/conversation is saved?
Thanks
Okay, I found the software.
Jeyo Software is the one. God, I wish I had known such a software existed before. Its just beautiful.
One more thing, any idea how to restore contacts that were saved as .xml?
Thankx
