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

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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
Hello I have TD2 with stock rom and I suddenly lost option in Messaging menu (right soft key) to select text. Also copy and paste are missing now.
Is there any registry key to fix that or any other solution?
BTW when I long tap on a text there is Copy Paste, but Select Text is missing.
THANK YOU
Yep same problem here, very annoying!
go with stylus on the text and hold to have the menu"make selection"
This isn't a big issue, I guess, but since I'm OCD this annoys the hell out of me.
I copied and pasted my email address on my Vibrant once, and now every time I long press a text box to change the input method, "Paste" shows up above it. Is there a way I can clear that?
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?

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.

How do you stop the text in a picture being copied when dragging and dropping a screen selection when using the stylus into a text message? All I want is the picture to be dropped into the message box, but it also pastes whatever text is readable within th screen capture so I have to go back and delete all the text.
