How to forward SMS in new WM6.1 threaded SMS?

How to forward SMS in new WM6.1 threaded SMS? Hope somebody will come out with an easy solution for that.
Thanks.

yeah im not a fan of the new threaded sms some one said that you can select it with the dpad and then bring up a menu... i could never do it. plus you cant search your sms any more?!?

Just go into the conversation that contains the SMS you want to Forward, select (highlite ) the SMS you want to forward, press "menu" then select "Forward...
works

I've tried that before. It won't work.

before opening the message in the inbox folder, press and hold the message until the menu pops up. "forward" is one of the options there.

or tap menu>reply>forward

What he said. You have to highlight a particular part of the actual thread BEFORE you can see the forward. (He doesn't mean highlight the message in your inbox.)

Thanks.... sorry for being so stupid. At last for the first time I can forward my SMS without having to to do "copy & paste" way.

i got it just tap the contact name and gesture throught the msg the text and name get highlited (light blue) and then press right soft key click forward.

But tapping the name will bring out the contact's detail menu. You will need to close the contact details to see the highlighted blue message. Anyway to prevent it from opening the contact details?
Sorry, I found it. You actually need to drag and highlight the sender's name and message..

This used to anger me to no end, as I forward a lot for work. I would try the highlighting and everything but still get the greyed out forward option.
The simplest option is to just open the message and simply press the up key once and it highlights the last message received in blue. You can then forward it. No need to highlight any text or name.

SMS forwarding in HTC diamond
YES it works.... on my HTC diamond....
open the SMS press the "up" key once, go to the menu and
"forward option is "un-grayed"
I have been trying for a solution since long... but this one worked....
thanks XDA

Stupid Text Messaging Problem

Hi guys, im using a fuze, it has the HTC Stock Rom on it, the thing that pisses me off about it is the damn text messaging in landscape, this is what happens, i receive a text message, i want to reply, so i put it in landscape mode by sliding the screen so i can type on the keyboard, when i start typing the freakin dialer shows up and it gets in the way, is there any way to fix this. its so annoying

Simple. If you open the SMS from your mate first, so you're in the "instant-messaging-a-like" dialogue screen, THEN open the keyboard, you won't get that problem.
If you open the keyboard whilst you're still at the HOME screen, then you'll get the landscape version of the HOME screen, and typing stuff in there will automatically take you to the dialler.
The thing to remember is that if you're looking at emails, SMSs, the Weather or whatever in the tabs in the HOME screen, the application you're using is the HOME app (Manilla), so opening the keyboard up is just going to get you that landscape version of HOME with all the application tabs. It's only when you actually open up an SMS / Email etc. that you enter the appropriate application, and at that point the keyboard is "owned" by that app and opening the keyboard up will get you the landscape version of that app instead of the landscape version of HOME.
Hope that helps.

haha, well i guess i kind of worded it wrong, what i meant to say was when i get the text message a little box shows with the message, when i hit reply which is in the lower left corner it enters the messaging application once there i put the typing cursor in the text area, when i slide up the screen to use the keyboard it kicks me out of the messaging app and then takes me to the dialer. once i close the dialer then i can continue typing

Turn off the notification box. When you get a new SMS, you get a green indicator against the SMS tab on the HOME screen anyway, so it's not necessary. When you get an SMS, it'll still play a sound and give you an indicator on the top bar. This'll get round your problem.

coming from a tilt and many other windows mobile devices im very used to the way the text messaging works, i really like the pop up notification more than just a green number.

Same Problem with MDA VARIO II
I got this problem with the MDA Vario II and I still get it with the TOUCH PRO
It would be great to fix it.

Text message problem using Keyboard, kicks me out of Texting!

1. Scroll using touchflo to Messaging
2. select a message and choose MENU > REPLY from touch 3d screen.
3. Slide out keyboard and start typing
4. PROBLEM: it kicks me out of the text message and opens up into 'telus quick find' and continues typing what I started to type. (It boots me out of the text messaging application).
Anyone know why this is?
It shows my blinking cursor in the text messaging field.... just before it boots me out of the texting application.

Mine does this sometimes too, haven't found a cause and/or solution.
Another problem is that if I close the keyboard as soon as I press the send button, sometimes TF3D crashes.
I don't worry too much though, they only happen occasionally.

I have a similiar problem and I need to click the blinking cursor in the text field to "lock" it there. It went away after a hard-reset. Still do not understand why...

i think i can help
i had a similar problem today, my problem was it switched to landscape, in 1 second opens my dialpad then i have to close that and continue typing.
what solved my problem was installing a file called "RemoveSkcerts.cab" or something similar, sorry but i dont have it with me on my touch pro, hope this helps u out

When you hit reply, do you wait fully until the whole messaging screen pops up or do you do press reply, and immediately open up keyboard?
I used to have this problem until I realized that you should let the whole messaging screen come up.

keyboard closes
when I reply to e-mail or even SMS, when I hit the space bar (both in physical keyboard & SIP), the application CLOSES ! ! this just started happening.

Exact issue i have

Yep, mine's been doing the same for a couple of days now... Stock T-Mobile ROM UK... Only had it a month, so haven't researched enough to change anything much.
I hit reply for the text, slide out the keyboard. I start typing and about 3 words into the reply it closes the SMS window and goes back to the main screen. It's fairly annoying as bugs go.
I hope this helps you work it out.

Hi!
Post number 5 is correct.
When you hit reply, do you wait fully until the whole messaging screen pops up or do you do press reply, and immediately open up keyboard and start typing? This the cause.
I used to have this problem until I realized that you should let the whole messaging screen come up.
So let the messaging screen come up completely.
Hope this help.

tried this....i still have the same issue......tp inadvertently kicks out to either home screen, or in most cases the phone dialpad screen !!!!
i tried soft reset and then reply, then things are fine......mebbe this happns because the dialpad application does not really close properly???? although i don't really see it running in the background or anythin......the dialpad cannot run in the background......but this dos'nt explain why occasionally it kicks out to the home screen???

gmail glitch or am i dumb?

When I get a gmail notification, I pull down the bar and click it. After I read the email I press 'home'. The problem is that the notification is still there. If I click on it again it'll take me to the email again and when i press home it will disappear that time. Or when originally pressing the notification I can read the email and press 'back' to get back to my inbox and then the notification will disappear. Or I can just drag the bar and press clear.
Is this how of works for everybody? I'm almost positive that with my g1 and mytouch i would drag the notification and press on it and it'd disappear. The notification would appear, i would press it, and it would politely disappear The current way is kind of a hassle since i'm so used to it being simpler and smoother on my 2 other android phones.
Maybe there is a setting that i missed?
Thanks for any information

Must be a glitch, it happens to me too. It also happens in Google Voice. After you read the message you can press back then home to clear the notification for now.

Same here (Ten Char)

same here. I got used to always hitting the back button to erase the notification before i hit the home button.

It's a bug in 2.1. The notification goes away after about a minute. I submitted an issue in the bug tracker earlier today about this.

Cool thanks for the update

Maybe is the way you do it. After reading the mail if you press Home, the program doesn't realize you've read it. But if you press Back, instead, the notification goes out immediately. This behaviour is the same for the G1 and the MyTouch as well.

Attach button on text message

How do I swap the attach button and send button on the text message screen?
Some roms (skyics) have it swapped, and it actually stops me from flashing other roms when I see the attach button on top.
I type in landscape mode and it drives me nuts having to swipe just to get to the send button.
Is it a simple fix?
-thekaptn

There is no simple fix for moving changing. Collors or buttons or menus.
Perhaps try a different sms app. From the market. Or decompile it with apktool. And start diggin in

Thanks silver. I like the stock app...I might get around to just digging in and messing around with it.
