Is there any 3rd pparty sms app? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Good morning ladies and gents..I ofcource did my search before i post but only found mass reciever sms apps..I would like to know if there is or it is possible to make another sms app...HTC one is horrific..probably the greatest drawback of this phone ( still so much in love <3 )..any insights will be massively appreciated..thank you.

use the cab to disable htc messaging to use stock windows one no freezes then

im using the stock windows sms app too, but its a bit boring.. well it works very well, and i like it, its just getting a bit boring after my 2 years of using windows mobile :/
searched for other sms apps too, found something like vito sms, or smiley sms.. but they are just cheap :/
if someone has found something better, post it plz >.<!

I saw something about "Slide 2 Send". I dunno what happened to that app. It looked nice.

have you tried sms chat
at least looks better than htc's

Im using a newer messaging client, for me anyway the lag appears to have gone. its only evident when i use swype. If i use touchpal, slideit or other keyboards it types straight away. Followed another member instructions and it worked great, thks clarkdevlin.
- To install it make sure the messaging client isnt already running so soft reset easiest way to make sure.
- disable HTC sense (start/settings/today)
- install the cab file
- option to install cloudy cab (turns off sms sent notifications)
- soft reset
- enable HTC sense
Like i said, working great for me with no lags (touchwood lol)

Try PocketCM that has sms threading included.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320544
Thats right, PocketCM SMS looks like IM.
Anyone tried both PocketCM and this one? Which ones better?
well the txt is built into the pocketcm app, which makes it suck. It's a great tool, but there is no quick way to text. You have to manually open up the contact, select sms, then wait for it to load up. If you close pocketcm, and receive a message, it doesnt open in pocket cm unless u manually open it.
I had a problem with the palm threader, where my gf kept getting double text from me. I just uninstalled it and it removed itself and went back to normal arcsoft mms manager thing.
well i'm using palm app for 7 months and i think its far better than pocketcm (in this stage..)
palm app is quick and you NEVER lose any sms on reset. backup is simply - just copy one fil from windows to storage card...
pocketcm currently dont mark messages as "read" so you must read them twice.. and doesnt take sms itself so if you receive sms you back to outlook..
did any one see palm threaded od wm6 update of treo? any changes?

i also have been using palm threader for...at least 5 months...i had your problem one time to...from my experince i found (at least for me) that this problem was caused by programs like the htc x button..that i would send a sms it would get sent and like always i would close the app...well the app not knowing if it was sent or no bc it got closed would send it again....the way i easlly solved this was by using the new version of htc x button and making the palm threader an exclusive app. this would make it where it would never close, from this it ran faster and i never had that issue again
double post...
well maybe someone will try this? http://www.mykesoft.com/textr/details.php (im currently trying to try ) and this looks like be better than palms app but ive got problems that may be caused by my config. i'll try to do hardreset later..

I have tried textr and have found that the functionality is great but the program has a large memory footprint and takes a while to load. It also does not take the place of the default sms application from what I understand but then again, I am also using sms threader and not the default sms app.
Here is a direct download for the the texr application with all required files for the program to work properly and MY PERSONAL registration key that I am sharing with the community because the trial period expires as soon as it is installed, not 21 days later like it says on their official site.
If anyone can find a way to decrease the memory footprint and also make it the default sms app and load more quickly, please let me know because I like the program, I'm just a speed freak and the app just runs too slowly...

as the original guy to post this thread..
i have to say even tho the PocketCM looks very nice.. it more of a pain to actually use it for txting and that whenever u get a new txt it wont show up. u have to close the program down and start it up to see ur txt.
and i am currently using palm sms threader and i love it's awesome.. so easy to txt. one slight problem that i am having with it is that i cant recieve or send picture messages but i can still open up the old messages program for that. it could be just me tho..
and this textr.. even tho i havent used it looks very similar to palm sms threader but a little newer. but the memory thing.. isnt for me. if that's the case..
for now im sticking to palm sms threader.. very easy to use program..
yeap i know now why you all say that (oh my english is even worser when i'm tired)
after try - loading time of textr and the memory... i think nobody can say this is better than palm app.. however looks very nice and im disipointed

your problem is universal...no has ever been able to use the MMS feature of the Palm Threader. when i cook my own roms or use thoughs of the chefs i use the new version of Arcsoft sms which has the sms and mms separate...so after u install that and the palm threader u have 2 separate program one for sms and one for sms works awesome.....sorry i do not have the cab for arcsoft mms...tho i do have the OEM if want it.
the reason i put palm threader into my own rom instead of just installing the cab is if find it makes the program ALOT faster...with the cab version the program would seem to slow down after a while...cheers to all

Manila 2D and Easy Contact

Hi there,
I'm using Manila 2D and Easy Contact. Before, I was using iContact, and if I clicked on "All People" in the M2D-Tab, there comes up iContact. But with Easy Contact, there comes the normal Outlook-Contacts of WM... Any idea?
Thx,
MCXSC
Well, this isn't really an answer to your question (I think this is just a good time to throw it out there), but it would be nice if there was a way to set default programs, like on a PC.
Then problems like this might be non-existent.

Actually you can, using programs like SKTools, or I believe Schap's Advanced Configuration.
Try checking your settings in easy contact as i now use easy contact and it launches from all people and from contacts in my dialler it has fully replaced the old wm contacts

Messaging on the Touch Pro 2

Hey, sorry if someone already made a thread on this, I wasn't sure what to search for to find out, but here it is:
On the TP2, and I'm sure everyone with this phone has noticed it, while viewing txts in conversation mode, if you leave the conversation open and recieved X amount of messages from that person, when you close out, it will still say you have X number of unread messages, and you have to open and close your conversation X number of times before it shows as no unread messages.
I'm hoping HTC makes a fix for this soon because it is really annoying, but I wanted to see if any of you very capable guys here can make a simple cab fix for it.
I've noticed similar problems and I think it's a bug in the TF3D interface unfortunately.
Holy cow, that was my biggest gripe. I just stopped going into the WM messaging and I use the tf3d instead (click on the first msg from the messaging tab) and stay in there. It works right.
I almost always use the TF3d interface and I still have go occasionally go back in and enter the message again to get the indicator to go away, even after I've responded!
Agreed I hate it. I am not using the HTC interface (went with SPB) but if I get messages and chat in the SMS window it will not mark them as read. I HATE IT!
I haven't tried using the TF3d to see if it works better. I always used the default WM home screen cause I like it better. But either way, yeah hoping they will fix it lol It did it on my TP also, but only after I installed the latest update. With it being on that and on this one, I almost wonder if it wasn't a glitch and maybe it is intentional idk
I have also noticed it too. My old touch pro did the same thing. I have noticed on the touch pro two it changes between two different styles of text messaging screens, it really messes me up because the send button ends up in different spots.
when you're on the sms thread and you're talking to person just use your arrow keys to go up towards the one you haven't read. it'll show a closed envelope to the left of the message and as you press up and pass them the envelope opens up. no need to open and close.
Yes from the SMS inbox that's fine, but from the TF3D interface which is easier to get to than the SMS inbox if you're running TF3D then sometimes you need to read it again.
I was hoping they fixed this in 6.5 but NOPE of course not. WHY THE HELL ARE THERE TWO MESSAGING PROGRAMS!?!?!

Exactly my question. I just disabled TF3D and use WM default I like it better. Plus you free up some resources.

You disabled ALL TF3D or just the SMS in TF3d?
I used SBP Mobile Shell as a replacement for a bit, but i had some problems with it too....Are there any other shells out there worth looking at that might correct some messaging issues?
On a somewhat related note, has anyone else noticed that some people you get text messages will be an hour behind? Like you recieve the txt at 5:30pm and it shows as 4:30pm? My TP did this also. I don't know if there is a setting or something...
dont know if yall figured this out but the second post in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585101&highlight=mark+read has all your answers. I installed the program and works like a charm. i now have the "mark all as read" option FINALLY!!!!!!! that little orange baloon with the little number was driving me absolutley nutts.
So i have a USCellular TouchPro2 fresh out of the box....
Somehow its stuck showing 1 unread message in the SMS inbox...i have tried deleting every text from the system...installing the InboxExtender and using the mark all read option..the rogue (1) still appears....anything else i can try ??
Thanks
UPDATE --
US Cellular says its a know bug that they are working to resolve....no ETA for the patch of course.....

Hey, on this topic, how do I make it so my default sms is the windows version instead of the HTC one that?
Anyone have a cab for that or can help me for the 6.5 update VZ tp2?

+1 I wanna know this too except for the TMOUS version. I kinda hate the TF sms. Also has anyone noticed thatg when you type in a recipients name, it brings up ALL their numbers? My Tilt used to only show me mobile numbers for the recipient (which makes sense since land lines and faxes dont typically receive texts DDUUUHHH!!!) but i have on occasion sent a text to a friends home phone or fax!!
+2 I also would like to know if i can make WM my default SMS.

Facebook Chat on HD2

This one goes to all the windows phone newcomers who are looking for a way to use facebook chat on their new HTC LEO / HD2, which lacks from both native winmo facebook app, and HTC Sense facebook integration.
The software name is FIM (Facebook Instant Messenger) and beside the fb chat it integrates many of the core facebook features like status feed, notifications, photo post, and pretty much everything else via Facebook's mobile site.
Most important is that the software is finger friendly and I'm using it myself on HD2, so later I will post a video of the software on HD2 for those who still consider buying this awesome device.
You can find the rest of the details here
You can also download it directly on your device by navigating to http://get.mosko.mobi
will give it a go
Good job

excellent app, congrats
fantastic app! best facebook app ive used on the HD2 yet! thank you!!!
does not work on 3G -1
How much is this likely to kill the battery if it was left running in the background?
I'm fairly sure it was Palringo that gave me my battery issues when I first got the HD2.
While we're talking about Facebook app on HD2, how come i can't see my thumbs of my uploaded pictures? Is this a setting somewhere or just a bug?
Thank you very much, been looking for exactly this.......
I am trying to dl this, but it looks like the website is down?
same here, seems broken? anyone got the cab?
great ap though it does drain the battery got a percentage icon running and you can see it counting down
Site seems to be working again!
Hi, excellent app! love it. BUT......
...95% of the time when I open fim and try to sign in it fails to connect and pops up with the message "Failed using the internet connection. Try to restart your data connection". This is on my HD2 which I've only had for a few days and it's also my first winmo so I'm a complete noob. It doesnt matter how many times I turn on/off wifi it makes no difference and I get the same error both on my wifi at home and at work so I'm a bit baffled - especially as it does occasionally work first try.
If anyone can point me in the direction of where I'm going wrong I will be eternally grateful lol.
Cheers,
Matt
Thanks a lot for this, it's a damn shame the official Facebook app totally sucks compared to the iPhone version which allows for so much more. It's small things like this that make the whole device user experience suck. It's not HTC's fault.

Hi all, +1 for the same problem. but i'm not a complete noob and not in wifi.
edit: I may have found the solution "Incorrect Email/Password Combination": but you are positively sure you entered everything correctly? well, if you have special characters in your email or password replace them. only numbers, English letters and of course @ at the email allowed, also keep in mind that facebook passwords are case sensitive."

SMS Bug?- long time before i can type (only with swype)

i am using swype 3.9 (version 2 caused bugs with my camera but didnt have this bug)
i click on a message and go to reply, i am swyping all over the place but nothing appears about 10 seconds later i can type, i have the htc patch for sms and i have no lag at all if i used standard keyboard its only swype
any one got any solution?
I have same problem - more like 5 or 6 seconds for me. I have just learned to live with it as I like Swype so much I could not do without it. I would like to know if there is a fix for this (I am not a techie so really would not know what the conflict could be).
I am running Artemis Rom ver 6. (This is soooo good)!!!
Are you using conversation mode? Usually its caused by have multiple messages from one person and the phone is trying to load them all. Wanting a fix for this too. Switched back to traditional; mode for now..
Me too, same problem. Can anybody help?
you can actually start writing. everything I'm typing in the "unresponsive" time, is filled in correctly after a couple of seconds.
I would suggest it's due to the version of Swype you have installed and by the sounds of it, you have the T-Mobile one. I had the same slow response from it, reverting back to the old Omnia version corrected the issue.
However there is a modded version of the T-Mobile one available now (you'll have to search for it, as I believe it will get removed if I post it). Which is working fine and it doesn't require the devices model name to be changed in order to work correctly.
i have the same problem, but i do not have swype...
SO!
does anyone know where i can find swype?
Same for me

Got exactly the same problem, the more sms i have in a conversation .. the more i have to wait... near 15seconds for a 250 sms conversation... only in Swype, original keyboard do not have this behavior....
xavierdemon : Are tou sure ..? Cause i've tested the version without the devicexxx.txt file (don't remember the filename) .. and it crashed my phone. Do you have this swype and no problem to open big conversations ..?

Try this, it will trick the phone to load all messeges at ones, it's a little workaround until they fix the bug ...
When u enter the sms application to reply an sms press the menu once and then close it, now they should be all loaded....
I don't have any delay with Swype, but I did experience the same thing when I used the one extracted from T-mobile, it was very annoying indeed so that's why I installed a different version.
Honusnap what Rom are you using?
Same problem, but with SPB keyboard, I don't have swype.
So I suppose the conversation mode for SMS is responsible
Hi, I have the same problem, I think I got it when I uppgraded to v.1.43
Hans
same for me
Is this happening when you have a lot of messages in HTC Messaging?
There is a fix for that on the HTC Site (latest SMS update from end of january), also new ROMs don't have this problem anymore.
Ive had this with every keyboard i've used.
I learnt to live with it.
but it agree, its a pain in the ass.
And it only ever does it on sms'.

this is really bugging me also.
the htc fix fixes it for what seems every other keyboard
I use swype, I have this problem but didn't notice this till after loading 2.13 rom.
no new roms dont fix this problem its been around forever. best thing to do is get a non htc messaging rom or just disable it with the tweak
