Hello,
maybe somebody could help me and tell how to change the way, how contacts are displayed, when trying to write sms.
It is driving me nuts, because I hate that WM 6.5 is showing only one contact at lower end of sms and not like it used to do in WM 5 - contact list.
See attached picture to understand what I mean.
I would be very grateful if somebody could tell me how to get old style of contacts to show up... as I said - it is driving me nuts!
P.S. Now I am using TAEL ROM, but I have tried several others and all except one were the same.

Hey guys, I used to hang out here when I had my old HTC Wizard (Cingular 8125) and I remember this place being very helpful and knowledgeable. So I've come back in hopes of fixing a couple small "flaws" on my new Samsung Epix.
1. Is it possible to change the default input for the recipient when composing a new text? When I open a new text window, the default input for the recipient's name is in numbers.. but I would like it to be letters so I can just spell out the name instead of write in the phone number.
2. Can the "Reply" softkey in the Inbox of messages be changed to "Delete" like it is in the Outlook E-mail profile? I like to keep my inbox relatively empty and having reply on that soft key is kinda useless.. delete would be a lot more handy, and it's the way the Outlook profile is already setup.
Thank you all for your help
Found a solution for problem 1

Now if I can figure out the other two, that would be sweet!
Hi all,
Is there any fix to the HTC messaging?
All my contacts numbers are in the form +xxx (xx) xxx-xxxx.
when i try to send sms it keep telling me invalid recipient, i found out that its only accept the connected numbers +xxxxxxxxxxxxx , well, I'll not change the format i use.
so is there any way to fix that in it or shall I'll look for a 3rd party application?
Thx in advance.

HI! I had the same problem.
In German it wrote "Ungültig(e) Teilnehmer"
I use Outlook 2007 and I like the Phonenumbers as stored correctly by Outlook.
I used to store it this way +xx (xxx) xxx xx xx even on my Mobile so that it is in the correct order in Outlook2007
Now this doesn´t work any more by sending SMS.
So I searched for the reason... if I deleted the caracters ( and ) like chris it was possible to send the SMS ---But, i don´t like to change the Numbers that way because in Outlook2007 it´s wrong. And of course much time waste.
So I tested a while last night and now I solved it this way:
Check this out:
if you delete the space here +xx (xxx) xxx_xx_xx to +xx (xxx) xxxxxxx it will work!!!
it seems to be only too much caracters. ()are not the problem. So Outlook2007-format still works too.
I hope this works in your Mobile too. Let me know!
Have fun!
I have the same problem. I find that if I create the new SMS to the same contact from the contact's record instead of from the Sense UI Messaging tab, it sends fine.
So the problem for me is only with new messages created from the messaging tab, which is a bit ridiculous.
I've tried searching but I can't find an answer to this for the HD2.
Is there a way of limiting the number of messages displayed in an SMS conversation's history? I'm having to wait a good 10 seconds for all the past texts of some contacts to load before I can start to type, which is obviously extremely annoying. Limiting the amount it displays to 20 or so would be absolutely fine.
Anyone have any ideas?
This is a good idea, at the moment I am trying to keep on top of my messages by deleting older ones. I find it very strange that there is such a huge delay when there are loads of messages in a conversation. Whats the 1ghz processor doing? Having a tea break?
Oh ? I thought I was the only one who suffured of the loading speed in the SMS history.
On my last and beloved Cruise, the history was splitting in a few pages.
Someone know how to make it the same way ?
A solution for this would be nice!
Yes ! Perhaps we should try to post it in general XDA forum ?
Would like this also, now I'm using the old message view again (not threaded) because the other one is way to slow
I need this too...
Please, find a way to split threaded sms like in old TF3D!!!!
I hope HTC knows about this problem and will release a fix! Just write HTC about it...the more the merrier!
correct! Please report it to HTC so that they will fix this.
For the moment you can use this "workaround":
Open the inbox for this contact and try immadiately to hit the "send" button and answer the question "...really want to send an empty message.." witn "no"....that's it.
the keyboard is directly available and you can answer
i wonder if its possibly something to do with the small thumbnail images on every message thats slowing it down????? maybe removing these may make a difference, anybody know how to do that though?? lol
I've tried it and that has no effect on the speed

booo! lol i`v reduced the text size to smallest and that seems to have helped a bit, i havent got many messages right now i`l know soon if it really makes an impact when i dont delete my messages.
forget that comment above dont think it makes a blind bit of difference lol

Just click
All Messages > Menu > Settings > Traditional Mode
The traditional mode separate the sent messages and the received messages.
But if one has lot of messages from the same contact, this will still be slow.
Solution
My solution for this problem is that once a day a sync with windows my phone and archive the old messages there or save old messages with jeyo mobile companion, thus leaving in the phone a minimum amount of messages. until HTC solves the problem this works for me
I'm archiving old messages on MS MyPhone too for the time being. An acceptable workaround for me for the time being.

I searched all through the new tael rom thread and was unable to find a solution to my problem.
I love the look of sense 2.5 but I am having two issues with text messaging.
One, If I am on the text messaging tab and create a new message It doesn't auto fill the recipient name and doesn't seem to grab any info from my contact list. If I select add receipient it takes me to a blank search people field with none of my contacts listed. The only way I can send a text message is to go phone>contacts>send msg or reply to one that is sent to me.
Two, when I am in landscape mode trying to reply to an sms the send button is off the screen. This I can live with as I know not everything has been ported over the VGA but the first complaint is really an issue.
Thanks in advance.

1. Texting is weird and a pain. This is due to the new, stupid, built in htc messaging app Jataayu made for HTC. Unfortunately it's a necessary evil with Manila 2.5. Either use the 'disable' cab found in this thread to disable it and use the built in WinMo pocket outlook to SMS (ink in post #1) or use Pyrorob's Contact Picker and Shared Resource CABs.

htc touch pro
can anyone tell me how to configure my mobile so that my contact name appear when receiving text message from my contact.for htc touch pro can we upgrade the windows or change it to android and if we can increase the camera pixels
thanks for all waiting for reply
Since now I have been very happy with WM and especially HTC. But now I discovered, my contact not showing correct on incoming Messages or calls.
What I mean in detail is, that my Numbers are saved to the Phone only by using a Number like: +49179123456.
My Problem is, that now my incoming Messages from saved contacts do not show the Name, because in this case the message is obviously sent by 0170123456. The only way, for now, is to save contacts twice. I already searched the forum and found similar Threads, but none of them could help.
It`s not a huge problem but a little annoying and i would be very thankful if somebody could point me in the right direction.
Greetings from a great Fan of XDA!!
