Clear mail notification automatically on preview of TF3D? - Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps

When I read a text message in TF3D preview, it automatically clears the notification. Is there a work around to also do this with the mail preview? Most of my emails are short but after reading the preview, I still have to go into the messaging inbox, select each message and then OK back out to TF3D.

Go into Inbox, then Menu/Select Messages/Several. Select the unread ones, hold the stylus on one and select Mark as Read.

Use this - it works on mine. Disable Touch Flo on your Start/Settings/Today/Items, then use Total Commander and move/replace the manila file in your Windows folder, then re-start Touch Flo and this should cure this bug.

Can you please explain what this actually does and what version of sense it's for? I would very much like to be able to mark an email as read without having to actually pull up the email. Either a menu option during preview, a new button or just the fact that it was previewed would work for me.
BTW (to the original poster), I use S2U2 and it allows you to preview emails while locked and mark them as read.

This doesn't mark an email as read without having to actually pull up the email. What it does is exactly what WMGuy wanted. It clears the envelope in the taskbar without having to open the email in WM. This manila file works with touch flo 2.0. I'm not sure if it will work with 2.1, 2.5 or 2.6. The only thing I can suggest is that you back up the manila file from your Windows folder first and then try....
With regard to your request to be able to mark an email as read, you are lucky you get a preview in the first place - if you use Blackberry to get your emails, you don't get a preview! It gives you the sender and subject but just says "click to open message"!!!! So I'm sorry, but I can't help with your question kravguy. I would actually like something for this too. With the option to delete it as well.
You could try this too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379265

I have searched on manila 2.5 and this file doesn't exist in windows folder so maybe this is only for manila 2.1.

I don't know about 2.1 as I have 2.0. Perhaps it doesn't exist but should do???

You mean place the file there even if it doesn't exist and see what's happen???
I can try that
EDIT: doesn't do anything!! So for manila 2.5 we must find other way to clear notification in tab mail on preview.
I really want a solution for this because in most cases the preview is enough for me so why enter the inbox to mark as read??

Well I've been in a flashing marathon for a few days. I'll gladly go back to 2.0 for this reason alone. 2.5 is nice but kinda busy and slow for me anyway.
So just to clarify mitsi, when you get an email, you slide to the email tab, read the preview and then the notification clears automatically from the envelope (after applying the file)?
Thanks

Yes, that's right. If you're going to flash a 2.0 rom instead, why not just try this manila to see if it works on your 2.5 first? I'd be interested to know. I prefer 2.0 to 2.1/2.5 anyway because I want at least 4 appointments showing on my today screen even if they are up to a month in advance....

Didn't somebody already try and it didn't work?
BTW, what ROM are you using?

You're right, Zimaia edited his post and I didn't notice it.
I'm using the HTC Stock Rom 1.39.405.2 (47382) with Manila 2.0.37889.1. It works fine for me.

I'm kinda surprised that this isn't a bigger issue or that HTC didn't think to add a little more functionality in the email preview tab. 2 (what seems to be easy) functions (delete and mark as read)... there's a reply (to all which is another frustrating thing to me) but nothing else? My main problem is this, I get some emails in, and want to delete some and keep some. Well, since I cant do that from the preview, I have to go to the inbox. Problem with that though is that I have no way of scrolling through them to delete here and there (maybe I'm missing something here). I can pop up the menu and click on the option to select multiple messages, but that's not really what I want. I want to do something like, select the fourth message in the list (without opening it), delete it, then select the 6th, etc. I can't seem to get the zoombar to work.

If I'm understanding you correctly, to delete the 4th message in the list without opening it, just tap and hold on the message and a context menu will pop up with delete as an option.

Well I tried it with 2.1 and it was a no go also. So I can verify that 2.1 and 2.5 don't work. I even found the exact file I was supposed to be replacing so I was excited. But all it did was shrink down the size of the preview folder. Message notification stays.
Hopefully a solution will come to this someday soon.

I tried s2u2. I have all Lock System Notfications on. When I preview the message on the lock screen: A) I can't seem to figure out how to mark them as read without going into messaging and B) I can't figure out how to browse through all of the previews (ie if I have more than 1 new email).
What am I doing wrong?

When the preview comes up, tap and hold on the message till it goes away. It should mark it as read (if you have that turned on in the settings) and then the next preview should come up.

Messaging goes straight to mms account

I'm sure I'm missing something stupid but I can find the answer. When I open messaging from the start menu it goes to the mms account which I don't use. I want it to go to the outlook account instead. It also does this from the htc home plugin if I click the left most message button. The text message (center button) does exactly what it's supposed to. I'm using the TNT 1437 touch rom. Any help would be great. Thanks
Sorry to bump but I still haven't found a solution to this.
Hi, you can always add text messaging to the front of your screen or even use the shortcut on the front but as for the problem your having, i have the same one, but i just work around it
same issue and I too would really like to change the default setting of that htc home link ....
Thanks to Urthwhyte for answering this for me in another thread. I don't know if you can go directly to an account via a registry change, but to at least get the bloody messaging to go to the chooser from HTC Home (because it should otherwise already go there if you have that option selected in Messaging options) - add another e-mail account. It doesn't have to be a valid one. I added my Gmail account and now the Chooser opens for me every time.

Are there ways to enlarge the sms typing area?

I found the typing area (the space below the message body) becoming too small after exchanging a few messages. Wonder if there are ways to enlarge the typing space to allow seeing 3-4 lines (now I can only see 2 lines). Thanks.
This seems to be a problem only when using the threaded SMS feature. I you turn that off, you get the full screen. The other problem with the threaded SMS feature is that it take away the character count which also drives me a bit crazy. Anyone know how to fix either of these two issues while retaining the threading feature?

It doesn't take away character count. It's right there on the top bar, next to the start button...
Drop this in /windows and overwrite. Might need total commander. I cant find the post but basically you edit the thread_sms html file in windows, i have this one saved in both my wife and my phones pre-edited.
note: you need to have show hidden filed turned on to see it on your pc.
you can use the freeware "TOTAL COMMANDER" and edit the file thread_sms.html. You can do a search to easily find it...i think it's in the windows directory.
look for this part:
<inbox:content id="COMPOSESUBECT" width="98%" height=35 spell...
and play around with the number in height (in this case 35). I think I tried 70 and got 3 lines for my text replies. Just change the numbers and see what works for you.
*you need to soft reset after editing the file.
Thanks, venelar & koppee1 for your help! It works.

Hey thanks a lot. I had been looking for it at the bottom of the screen where it appears when a new message is created. You have solved a big issue for me! I can kind of live with the small typing area but the word count thing drove me crazy -- I am a wordy guy.
i have installed wisbar advanced with the original theme. After that i havent the character count which has been in top. Is there any way how to get the character count back in threaded sms, or how to get it to the postion where is in the normal SMS sending... anyone hlep?
Hi, I installed the above thread_sms.html file from venelar (copied using resco explorer and soft reset) but now my threaded sms is broken, if I select a thread and click reply then nothing happens other than a slight screen 'flash'! Have disabled threaded sms in advance config and ordinary messaging is fine. Would like to get threaded back but like an idiot did not make a copy of the original file. Don't really want to hard reset and start all my settings again. Can anybody upload an original touch pro thread_sms.html file to help me out or suggest what I have done wrong?

it worked 4 me without the soft reset!
THNX much better now! now I can actually see what I typed...
After some experimentation:
Height of 35 = One-line SMS typing area
Height of 45 = Two-line SMS typing area
Height of 70 = Three-line SMS typing area
P.S. As per Pensador, a soft-reset was not required.

Changing this seems to only increase the SMS text area for the screen in Portrait. When I use the keyboard (i.e. screen in Landscape). Anyone know how to increase the SMS texting area for both orientations?

This is an awesome fix. This should be placed in the wiki.

Help with MMS notifications

When I recieve a new MMS message from someone in my contact list that I have assigned a picture to, the standard WM6 notification that shows the sender, and their photo comes in at the very bottom of the screen and it is half cut-off.
Hopefully this makes sense.
Is there any way I can fix this?
Thanks

Can anyone send me in the right direction (besides the search ) for this one?

I have a kaiser with a stock ROM.
I'm sure this has to do with PCM, and S2V. When you use either of these apps to assign contact photo's the higher resolution is also shown on the notification bubble/window when you recieve an MMS message.
But instead of some sort of "auto adjust", the notification window comes in on the same place on the today screen, but the window is half cut off.

Yeah, I know what's causing it, but I want to know how to *fix* it without having to possibly reassign all of my contact pic's with the WM6 contact manager.
Is there something in the registry that can adjust where the notification shows up on the screen??
what i meant was... that you'd probably need to either use it as is or talk to one of the developers to see how to fit the pics differently... or it would throw itself back to different res.

The only way I can get into full screen is to open the keyboard. Of course that's not totally practical having to have my keyboard open all the time for full screen. Have you tried something like Gyrator 2 to maybe see if when Gyrator puts it into landscape, the fullscreen activates?
I have a Touch Pro 2 BTW.

The keyboard will do the remote control tasks for you. I believe the keystrokes are the same as for the keyboard on the Desktop version:
The Numbers type numbers
G is Guide
Up and Down Arrows change channels.
X is exit, etc. I don't know where to get a full list.
Also, I set Slingplayer to Auto-Rotate using G-Config. The Window Class name is SlingClient. This gets me to full screen without opening the keyboard.
That's about the only way I can make it so I can use it.
If anybody wants the files in the program's folder I can send them. Just PM me.

Hmm, strange. I added Slingplayer to the Whitelist for autorotate, using G-Config and it's not rotating. I reboot and looked at the registry and can see it there(SlingClient), but Slingplayer just won't rotate unless I open the keyboard.

CHT Notifications - assigning another action

Hi everyone,
I use CHT 1.8.5.
I put on my screen 3 notification icons (CHT feature) - miss.calls, sms, e-mail.
I use manila but on my slider there is no sms card or e-mail card.
When sms,calls,e-mail comes, notification shows number. When I tap on miss.calls notification button, it works and it opens.
But when I tap on the other buttons nothing happens - notifications show there is an e-mail, sms, but tapping on them doesnt open my e-mail account or sms-client.
Can it be "fixed"?

Should work. Switch to CHT 2.0 - much more to play with, loads still to come and SMS/Email notifications definitely working there (plus slick new SMS and email widgets too...)
Hi,
thx, I know CHT 2.0 has much more features. But as far as i know it's no stable, has some buges etc, it's beta. so i must wait.
but I now in 1.8.5 it should work this properly but it doesnt maybe because i have disabled e-mail sms manila card disabled. i dont like them
so does anybody know the trick to do it? something in the registry?
its still beta, so i would wait for alpha release..
dont know a solution for your problem..mine works pretty well (same version)..ask in cht thread.
DN41
Do you have e-mail and sms CARDS on your SLIDER turn on?
My CHT works great, but i dont know why pushing these notification buttons works onlu with missed calls, and doesnt with email and sms.
yeah its turned on..
ah i see, yours or turned off?
DN41
I dont see why you wouldnt at least try 2.0 and see if you get any bugs.....
ive been using it for a while now and havent had any "major" bugs....
had some quicklinks move around a few times but not since the first alpha...
When you consider the amount of people saying its unstable compared to the amount of people using it........... looks like a pretty solid beta to me...
I wouldnt expect to see the final version for a while because the beta is performing well........
back to your problem.......
I dont think it will work if you turn off the tabs/cards....
have you tried turning them on and testing your notification icon......
conantroutman, when cards (email, sms) are turn on, it works well.
so i think tapping on this icon cant take my to the email,sms, because it works only with cards. if there are no email,sms cards on, it's "dead".
