Contacts: File as nickname? - General Questions and Answers

Is there any way to add this option to contacts?

No.
At least that was the conclusion I came to. I tried to find an answer to this when I first started using wm5, and again when I switched to 6.1, but no luck so far.

Thank you. I thought so. Just needed another confirmation.
Someone already explained how this could be useful...

Automatic forwarding of SMS to email account?

Hello again... I have another question. I'm looking for some way to automatically forward a copy of sms messages that I get to an email account so I don't have to worry about backing them up.
Is there anyone that knows of a way to do this?
Thanks...
Marc
If no one else can think of a way, I think I know how it could be programmed... but a local solution would be more convenient.
What device/OS are you using?

Nice to hear from you...
I'm on the blueangel (o2 XDAIIs)... wm2003 v1.42
It would be awesome if it was possible... even if it was a registry tweak or something.

Not free, but the best. Perfect integration with Microsoft Outlook. I use it since 6 months and no problems. Excelent.

Thanks for the reply... I have that program as well... It does in fact work pretty good... Seems the first version I had came with a few bugs like not reporting the time correctly when I would copy messages back onto my device and not transferring the body of "sent" sms message.. but I got the newest build and it seems to have sorted those issues out.
I also went on to their forum and they don't seem to be supporting the product any longer... at least that's how it seems from their lack of answers to questions people have had lately... (Since June or July I think)
I would still really like to send a copy to my gmail account for archival purposes... if anything a little macro that automatically creates a copy and puts it in my email inbox which I can send manually later...
I know it's a bit of an unorthodox request... but it sure would be nice to have it backed up in real time and on a server somewhere...
Thank you for the suggestion though... I do appreciate it.

How do you change the default SIP in WM6?

I've spent a good half hour searching for the answer to this and can't find it. Find posts on everything else under the sun, but not this. I want to make the PocketCM Keyboard into my default input panel. I know I've seen it before but I can't for the life of me find it. I tried using Registry Wizard to do it earlier and only ended up completely trashing my phone and making it non-bootable. So that's obviously NOT the answer.
Edit: This program seems to be the answer, SIPChange
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=271008
Search for program called SIPChange.
If You experience problems finding it, give me a message.
Thanks! That was what I needed. I got it now. I went ahead and edited the first post with the fix in case anyone else needs it.

IM Communicator

Hello guys. I am fairly new to this world and to this forum, so please take it easy on me.
I use a HTC P4351 Unlocked. I use it on T-Mobile network.
My First Question: The ROM version I have right now is - 4.24.422.1 WWE
Do I need to update it?? Is there a simple way of doing it??
My Second Question: Before I bought this unlocked device, I had\used T-Mobile Wing. This phone had this one app, made by "OZ Messaging". It was a client for AIM/ICQ/Y. Is there a way of getting a ROM with this app so that I can extract it from there, somehow? Or an app of this sort?? Another little problem with it is: I tried several applications like this. I need to have a connection to the internet. I don't have internet option on my phone. What I do have, is unlimited any kind of messaging. My guess is: it used my SMS gateway, since I don't have mobile net.
So to make this simple:
1. I'm wondering if I need to update my ROM?
2. Can I find a ROM, with it, or THAT separate application for my messaging needs? I would need this app to vibrate when my phone is set to vibrate mode? .
3. **VERY IMPORTANT** I don't have "Mobile Internet" on the device. I never never ever did, but that OZ Messaging client was still able to log on any three of those 3 networks. Whenever I needed to log on, in the log in process, it would to turn on my GPRS connection. I set that connection up myself. I found a way. So right now, whenever I send a Picture Message, it turns it on and sends it. I tested it out. Instead of entering a phone number, I enter my e-mail address, and it works both ways, it sends and if I reply to that message I received from my phone, it receives it back on the device. It used that "connection" for AIM/ICQ/Y before on the Wing also.
*** Basically the app needs to have a SMS gateway! ***
Is there an app that can use that kind of a connection/or is there a way for me to find this one?
Guys, please be as simple as possible. I'm not a "guru" in this field.
Thank You People. I hope I’m posting my question in the right spot, and I hope to get some help on this. Thank You once again.
use the search engine here in the forum "oz communicator" the cab is here in the forums just search for it hope this helps

Hey. Even if I find this *.cab file. I don't just need to find this *.cab file, but also need to figure out how to make this app to turn on the GPRS. That is what it did on my old T-Mobile MDA and on T-Mobile Wing. It used that connection to log in, and to send/receive IMs. (Via my SMS gateway)
So even if I do find this *.cab somewhere again, it won't work. AGAIN - is because I already found it once, and it didn't work, because of GPRS. Thank You
ok well i dont know what to tell you about gprs, thats something you have to find on your own along with the cab file, no one here is going to just hand you answers this forum is mostly for developers and those who want to learn how to cook roms and such, so there you have it and btw you posted in the wrong forum this is about rom dev not wing/herald cabs

[Resolved] [Q] Transfer SMS from SIM to Phone in WM?

I've looked everywhere for the answer, but can't seem to find it.
I am having trouble copying text messages from my SIM-card to my phone memory.
Is there anyone who knows how to solve that issue? I am using an HTC Diamond with WM6.5.
Thanks a lot.
EC
Bump for visibility.
hahahahaha I had tried this for a very long time!
Seriously it too annoying!
In the end all I could do is :
put my sim in a nokia phone
transfer messages to the phone
sent them to diamond via bt!!
Sorry for the lame solution, but there is no other way!
Asus sim manager
Asus sim manager(any version) does it
Sorry dont have .exe n other related files.

Thanks, but the phone hasn't got bluetooth, and I do not have another phone atm. I will look further into this though, thanks.

Great, but I cannot find the sim manager files, only ROMs containing it (dumping them would take a lot of time). Is there any way you could send it to me?
Thanks.
EC
allright, here's quickmade cab of asussimmgr.
idd, there's option to copy sim msgs into device(and from device to card) there, hmm nice.
i am not sure, if it will work for HTC devices(i've added policy to cab that should allow that), but i think it should.
Thanks
Thanks pupakota
hope it helps others

i'd be glad, if it works
Just downloaded and trying it out right now...
And YES, it works! I am very glad you guys helped me out!
Thanks a lot!
You can also use apps below to save the sms located on sim card & import to device.
Have done so on wm2003se wm5 wm6 wm6.1 & wm6.5 custom ROMs
i don't exactly know what you guys here are talking about...
but if its simply about copying a sms from the sim to the phone (as the title suggests) then i don't see how come no one's posted the most obvious solution i've used myself before...
just as background info to those who need to know- i'm running a com5 23569 self-cooked rom on my htc gene (p3400)
and i stumbled upon the solution to this problem you mentioned while going through one of the millions of flashes and restores we chefs go through...
all i did to copy the message onto the phone memory was open the msg to view it and then hit the left soft key to open the menu and the last option on the menu list simply reads 'copy to phone'...i tap on that and voila!! its done...
do let me know if it works coz i don't think it would be this simple and yet left untried by anyone else and requiring external apps to be installed for it to be done...

regardless of fact, if it is working, i wish luck to anybody with many messages..not especially automated process, if you ask me.
for cooks(that flash frequently) matter is entirely different, btw.
ppcpimbackup.

don't usually have to contend with too many messages myself...this only arises when i put my sim into a temp phone while the flashing process completes...and at worst i have 4-5 messages to contend with...
ppcpimbackup is my first pick too but i don't remember trying it out on sim messages...worth a shot though...
WOW plenty of options available! thank you guys.

[Q] LG E900 Camera Menu Language

Hi there to all the XDA Community.
I´ve upgraded my LG to 7720 Mango, i did the language mod and added my native one, so far so good...
Now, a little thing started to show up...
If i put my native language, the Camera menu doesn´t work...
I found a way to solve this problem, i have the correct "language translated" XML to deploy to windows folder on my device but all the file explorers i came up with had failed, some of them dont even show the folders, others just close immediatly once opened and so on...(my phone is MFG jailbreaked)
so, is there another way to solve this on this proper device?
I only get the menu working if i change to English language, of course, but i got what i need now but no way to do it!
Anyone?
Thanks

if you had done a little search you would have quickly found this thread. It explains everything in detail.
Hey there, yeah i knew about that thread but even there it seems unsolved...
And another detail, i couldnt post there, i wasnt allowed to do so, as this is my first time being registered on this forum so a lot of restritions are being imposed.
I understand it, anyway ill keep trying on this one.
Cheers from Portugal. :-D

ah, ok. sorry for scolding you. typing all the registry entries from the camerasettingsmanifest file with the MFG tool would be a pain in the neck. I guess one solution is to roll back, use touch explorer and get this into the registry and then come back to 7720. Or wait until somebody releases a new explorer that works on Mango.
cheers from flat Ohio
Thanks, guess i have to wait for it because going back to no-do again would be a pain.
I had to do it several times before to get my language working properly... im so tired of doing it...
Now that Everything was going ok... Bang... no camera menu...
Facepalm... lol
