I am facing a nightmare with promotional Flash SMS, my carrier allows them to pass in, without my consent, and they claim it is all legal! I am trying to get someone to develop the right app, and if not, show me directions of where to start, the app is simple, it needs to scan the textual content of the incoming FLASH SMS (USSD code), and if a certain text appears (customizable), it should press the "cancel" button
Those Flash SMS are different from "balanace USSD" in the fact that they don't just have an "OK" button, but two buttons: "Send" and "Cancel"
And if -God forbid- you mistakingly click Send, you have to go through a long process to deactivate the flush of spam messages you get. You have no idea how "surprising" those messages can be! It's a noble request, please help! :'(

Ok, so I just realized that it's very troublesome to compose a new SMS, have to go to the inbox, press right soft key, press left joystick, press down joystick to select SMS and then start composing
So I got an idea to configure the Messaging button on Tornado Noble to point to the compose SMS straight away. I did some google, and found the attribute to the tmail.exe application.
So I tried to create a shortcut named Long_AP2.lnk, in it contain this line
19#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "" -body ""
I saved it and transferred it to my phone, but it don't seem to work, feeling that my attribute might be wrong, I saved it as Short_AP2 and put into my phone, it works and by pressing the SMS button, it opens SMS composer straight away.
So the question is, why can't I get it to work on Long_AP2? Or the file name is supposed to be something else?
I also want to ask, what i that number 19 at the beginning of the line, hardware keys?
I think that the LONG_AP1.lnk activates when you hold the button for a few seconds.
Lol, I know that for sure,
I want to make long hold to activate compose sms, but short press to inbox
Anyone can help me? This is for our own good
keybddr.dll didn't support Long_AP2.
These aren't attributes. Attributes are what tell us whether or not file is hidden, read only etc...
These are parameters or switches.
I don't understand why you need to use a parameter to make tmail.exe open with a blank text message. Unless mine is broken, that's what it does by default. (In fact, I think mine is screwed up... wtf?)
Have you considered using mortscript?
andot:
If keybddr.dll doesn't support long_ap how is the media player supposed to use this for FFW in music/video?
I think it's supposed to support it.
I mixed up, it should be arguments
At default, it opens the inbox, not the blank text message
Long_AP2
With "AE Button Plus" you can map simple, double, triple and long click to one key.
This is a very usefull utility !
you need to modify the registry keys to use AEB Plus with the multimedia keys.

Hmm, I don't like to install additional cab to do simple stuff, perhaps find out what registry changes it does, and incorporate into a cab which installs the button, ill chk it out later

I fixed it. Don't know how it broke, but it works as you describe.
Is there no way to make a text version of a mailto: shortcut?
Good that you fixed it, but hope we can have 2 purpose with a button
short hold for inbox, long hold for sms
as you know, with Wm6, composing sms is even more troublesome compared to wm5
Is there a setting or software out there that gives a warning when a blank SMS is being sent?
My phone often lags when loading Arcsoft and sometimes I don't know whether or not I hit the "Text" option so I hit it again anyway only to realize the Button Press event gets stored in the buffer resulting in a blank sms being sent once it loads up.
anyone figure out how to prevent acidental blank sms?
unfortunately not at this time.... that is hard coded into the software.

it would be very useful!!
However you can use Pocket CM, which is a very good finger friendly contact manager with its own sms function. it requires a 250 ms "send" press, not only jast tapping, to avoid the accidental sms send!
I know, it isn't the solution but, maybe, can help you!!

Sorry if this is an easy fix, but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. When I get a new text message, the soft button on the left comes up as "reply" (the right is menu) is there a way to change this to "view" as sometimes I don't want to reply to a text, but do want to view the whole message.
Also, is there a way to add a shortcut (or change one of the soft buttons on the today screen) to start a new text message?
Thanks
intresting question got the same problem
I would like this too!

You basically should create a new shortcut as a program that has the command to invoke a new SMS. You can then use something like Schap's Advanced Config Tool to assign that shortcut to one of the soft keys. You can also assign it to one of the hardware buttons if you want.
You should also try searching. If you type "new sms shortcut" you will get many links to the solution.
Thanks, but that doesn't solve the main problem, in that when I get a new sms, the notification window comes up, and the left soft button is "reply" and the right is "menu" (which does not have a view option) so to view the message, I have to get rid of the notification, go into messaging, and then open the message. What I'd like to be able to do is when the new sms notification comes up, I'd like the left soft button to be "view" so I can just hit that and go straight to the message.
If the entire message is visible in the notification window it doesn't give you an option to "View", that's when you get "Reply". If you get a really long text message that doesn't completely show in the notification window, the "Reply" button will be a "View" button that will take you into Messaging to view the entire message. I'm not sure how to always have it be the "View" button.
gringolian, if you find something to change the reply to view, then let me know!
Hi friends
i noticed, each time if i want to send a message, i've to go to message-> selecting the account->and then new.
And what abt recently used numbers.. Each time have to select from contacts
I love this phone.. but why this phone lacks these basic stuffs
You can also start typing the number or the name (i.e 5->6->4->6 for John) on the home screen and switch left or right to SMS (txt) and then press the click on it, it will open the messaging app and you can start texting that person! Just a little tip
Otherwise look for AEButton which can assign a function to every hardware key!
Also, when you are in the messaging app and the "to" field is highlighted, just start typing the name, just like I told you above and a popup will open with all the possible names!

Thank you very much bro.........will try it now itslf
I am running a Verizon Galaxy Nexus on Jelly Bean and my question is simple. Is it possible either through apps or rooting, to have a button on the "ongoing call" screen that appears if the number is caller id blocked or is not in any of my contacts; that creates a new contact? Example 1: Someone calls and their number is already in my contact list. The new contact button on the dialer is grayed out or just does not appear. Example 2: Someone calls and their number is not in my contact list. The new contact button on the dialer is not grayed out. When i press it, the new contact screen pops up with their number already filled in. After typing in all their relevant information while still on speakerphone, you can press save and be returned to the ongoing call screen. Example 3: Someone calls with a blocked caller id. The new contact button on the dialer is not grayed out. When i press it, the new contact screen pops up without their number already filled in. After typing in all their relevant information while still on speakerphone, you can press save and be returned to the ongoing call screen.
thanks
