Its an debugg function made by MTK, and included on the sms text app code.
Just replace your stock sms text app, by another one.
Easy

[IDEA] Reply button for SMS!

Hey everyone.
Does the "feature" where the sms one pressed is selected after all the other sms's are loaded, suddenly interrupting the writing, ever bother you guys?
I wonder if it's possible, as per the image below, "move out" the reply button from the menu list as a shortcut.
My programming skills lack here but I'd gladly make a reply icon if any of you geniuses would be able to do this.

no its going to the message thread and you have to press on that box where you can type text before you can start with ur reply.. wich costs a tremendous ammount of time. *sarcastic mode*
I dont get the idea of fix behidn this?? Isnt that just moving the reply shortcut, it would still open the same messaging window loading all the messages still...?

Hum, so it's depend on your ROM.
On mine [Artemis], this goes in reply's mode [I'm in conversation's mode].

Remember you have to take the version of your language ROM. [the .dll of that topic is for ENG version].
Very good idea I think I don't want in that hole conversation mode. It is slow and it takes time.

I don't really follow what you're talking about.
I am using the latest Messaging.
Let me try to explain again.
When one presses the actual message, the conversation mode comes up and the sms's start loading. As soon as all the sms's finish loading, the message you had pressed becomes highlighted.
If you are writing meanwhile the messages are loading, as soon as the messages finish loading you won't see what you're writing anymore.
I've tried Artemis v14 and it was the same there.
I don't think there is a ROM that doesn't have this "feature", but if there is, please enlighten me.
If it's still unclear I could try to make a video, but I am sure that the latest HTC Messaging does not solve this, since I am using the latest one.
This is why I want the reply button out there. When pressing the reply button, no sms will be highlighted and you can write your text easily.
It is not a matter of being lazy, as I saw someone else mention earlier, but if you encounter this I don't know, maybe 20-30 times a day I ensure you it will get to your nerves!
Let me repeat myself, the thing bugging me is not that it doesn't go directly to the reply box, but that when the text you just pressed becomes highlighted, you don't see what you write anymore!
I have a similar problem.
When replying to a SMS, the messaging client loades all SMS you have in your contact box [and lagged the client] and when it finished, the keyboard comes over the typing SMS. So you can't see what you were writing.
But I merely remember a ROM |WinMo 6.5] where the messages are in the same mail client, just like on WinMo 6.1 [where mail and SMS where in the same messaging client].

Yes the NRG rom is like that for example. But I don't like the look if it. I'd rather have this solution that I'm trying to make happen!

[APP] NameBuzz - A new concept for Caller ID, and SMS ID.

Hey Guys,
Was hoping for a bit of constructive feedback. Wrote an app called NameBuzz:
A new concept in incoming Caller ID and SMS ID technology. Silently know who's calling, without your phone leaving your pocket!
- Vibrate pattern based on syllables in contact name
- Create custom vibrate patterns per contact
- Speak contact name out loud
- Vibrate on call end
- Press volume key to disable during call
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The idea is that with only 5 or so people calling you regularly, their syllables should be enough for you to differentiate between people. And if not, you can always create a custom vibrate pattern for that contact!
As an extra, it also allows you to set up speaking caller ID - for the situations where you don't need your phone to be silent!
You can install with the following link:
NameBuzz Install
It's only tested in English for the time being, and on a Nexus One and Desire Z (HTC Vision).
If anyone gives it a go, feel free to let me know what you think!
Cheers,
Daz.

Thanks, and here is an appbrain link (good for remote install):

Although, Cyrket does always seem more up to date.
Nice app! If only the voice was more enjoyable not so roboty if possible. The buzzing will take some time to learn, especially if you have friends with similar names..
AIM mobile IM = buzzing out of control!

I think it should be fairly intuitive, as you can work out the number of syllables, and then the name. I would use the testing function a little to familiarise yourself.
AIM mobile IM = buzzing out of control!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This shouldn't buzz out of control, it will be the pattern of:
Buzz-Pause-Buzz-Buzz-Pause-Buzz - and then repeat.
AIM-space- Mob -ile -space-IM
So AIM = 1 syllable
Mobile = 2 syllables
IM = 1 syllable.
And I put little breaks in to break up words. Does that make sense?
could always use morse code for the vibrate patterns
I think I will try this.
Idea is truly nice. How about Froyo Support!

Hi,
Yeh, the problem with morse code is that it would take forever to spell out a name entirely. Plus, someone has already done this. Look for "MorseRing".

Awesome, thanks! However, I guess you should warn people I've only tested this in english, and I coded the text-to-syllable engine to only really work with english letters. Hence, I'm not really sure how it will perform in german! Special accented characters that should be treated as syllable indicators probably won't get picked up...
Let me know if you give it a go, would be interested to know if it's really bad, or just not perfect!

Thanks for the offer, unfortunately, it's a little more tricky than that. I use certain knowledge about english to turn words into a number of syllables. Hence, it's not really a translation as such. I will have a think... if I can make into a translatable list, I will be sure to let you know!!

Going back to the topic, anyone have any thoughts/improvements?
Would love to know if anyone is getting to grips with it... Maybe I'll give you guys a few days to get used to the idea...!
Going on holiday for two weeks, so if you guys can come up with any feature requests, I'll implement them when I get back...
Hope you like it, and any ratings/feedback is much appreciated!

Is it just me or is this App no longer available in the Market? I've tried numerous barcodes and looked under Tools but only get told the app cannot be found.
Is there an actual install file available I can download so I can install this manually? I had it on my phone but my phone died and took the program with it.

I think I found the problem with this app not showing up in the Market for me. My phone was missing an update and once I performed it, NameBuzz showed up and installed without a glitch.
Great app. Makes phone calls a little easier to screen.
NameBuzz 1.2 now available:
- Works in collaboration with in-built ringer state. If your phone is in silent, it won't vibrate/speak, if in vibrate mode, it will vibrate but not speak, etc...
- Disabled during Call Waiting - simply provides call waiting tone rather than vibrating.
- Add custom speech text (ie. Incoming Call from Joe Bloggs)
- Added ability to set silent ringtone.

CM 10.1 Epinter Olympus Text Issue

I can receive texts no problem, but when I go to type a new text (and this may be a keyboard issue) it allows me to type one or two letters, before the keyboard just goes away off the screen and I have to wait a few seconds and then click back into the textbox in order to continue typing.
This issue is occurring for me on the MB860. Has anyone else experienced this or know of a workaround?
That sometimes happens, maybe it's just an android bug, I'd suggest you get Hacker's keyboard it is very good and never crashes.
Hope this helps
If the problem still persists get another texting app.

Now I am running into one other small problem (and this I am sure is user error).
When I click on the phone and look at my contacts I am showing the same contact multiple times. But if I click on the 'contacts' icon, it shows accurate contacts/numbers etc.
What setting changes this?

Long pressing does nothing. Let me try to use the proper terminology here...my "Dialer" is showing incorrect contact info but my "Contact" app is showing the correct contact info.
Should I try to get another Dialer...is that possible?

I think you can have two dialers at once. If not just remove the old one. Try installing it first cause without a dialer your os may malfunction.

I actually decided to get to the root of this problem and I took a look at my google contacts since I was loading the contacts from google. Somehow all my contacts were duplicated (some triplicated) in google contacts. I updated google contacts and now they are only pulling in once.
Now I still can't figure out how to modify a contact in the Dialer that ships with CM10.1 epinter tho.
Also -- Is there a way to keep your phone brightness @ max when it is charging? I can't seem to get that setting right either.
Try this maybe: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightness&hl=en

[Q] Contacts not syncing properly

Hi Guys !
I am new here so please spare me if this is a noob question.
I just got my Oneplus One and I love it !
However, my contacts wont sync properly .. so.. if i save a number 04xxxx but when the call or text comes in and the network by default shows it as + 61 ( country code) 4xxx then they show as different contact and don't come up in caller ID or are saved as another text thread for incoming messages.
Any one knows how to fix this ?
thanks in advance .
