I have noticed a problem with my Blueangel, when writing a text message it tell me in the bottom left corner that it will be two messages, even when the counter is less than the 160 character limit.. I didn't think anything of it, and presumed it was just a bug in the counter, but I've now recieved my bill from O2, and the phone has indeed been sending 2 messages!
Anyone know a solution to this?
I'm using Rom 1.40 with Radio 1.10

Yup
Yup mine did/does it too. No idea why. It happens when you leave a ' (and other characters too but i forget which one's) character out of a word. So for example if you typed "youre" it would replce it with "you're" but the added ' reduces the max characters to 70.
I think it is something to do with the encoding microsoft is using for the character set. Obviously the autocorrect is using a character with longer encoding than it should be. (I'm studying character encoding for an exam as we speak! )
Anyway you can stop it doing it by going to Start -> Settings -> Input -> Word Completion and un-chcking the box "Replace text as you type".

Actually guys,
This happens because of some character foreign character codes e.g. sometimes when doing an 'o' i get a 'oe' (but squashed together) ... those will cause the message to shorter. The same is also for using ` instead of '
Everytime I've encountered this I've just retyped it ... in actual fact, I'm using block recognizer because I'm an ex-Palm user and am now more familar with that so I rarely have these problems now.
.......
Vicer, I think you've got it bang on there!

Thanks Vicer, that seems to have done the trick!
its much better to turn off autocorrect found in your input module than turn off the Unicode in sms ..

the bug is already been fix in WM5.0 but not in WM2003SE
Sorry to go off topic but since it's to do with different character sets, then I thought of asking my question here.
Does anybody know how to tweak pocket word (maybe registry) so that it can read a different character set i.e. Hebrew character set?
Hey all,
I'm having a problem where when I am typing out a text message, it autocorrects certian words by adding a apostrophe between it. For example, when I type dont and then press space it autocorrects it to don't and from 160 character limit goes to 70 characters immediately (which means I have a limited amount of words allowed in the text message due to this). :x SO then I have to go between the word and delete the apostrophe between the words. :evil:
Has anyone encountered this problem? and/or Is there a work around to solve this problem :?:
Thanks in advance,
Sunny
You gotta turn the unicode off.....
Go to text msgs.
Then Tools
Then Options
Then the Accounts Tab
Then select Text msgs
Then un-tick 'Use Unicode where necessary'
Good luck
Thanks HPJ,
I'll give that a try, ok done!! & working brilliantly!!!! If anyone else has this problem do the above^^^^^! :wink:
Thanks again,
Sunny
no probs.....
took me ages before someone showed me how to do that.....the amount of money I wasted on texts......!

try the upgrading forum - this ones for 2003se versions
I upgraded my Asus P535 to WM6 Chinese simplified today. Since I am on business in Germany quite often, I also need to be able to enter German short messages. On WM5, I used Phatware's Calligrapher when typing in short messages and never had a problem...all the German special characters showed up just fine.
On WM6, when typing any of the German characters (i.e. äöüß), all I get is a blank space. When saving the short message to drafts, the characters will show up though...
Any ideas how I could get äüöß to show up again while I am composing a SMS?
Thanks for your help guys!
Problem solved. Found a font pack over at asuspda.net that did the trick.
Hi!
I have this very annoying problem. Sometimes when I compose a new message, and I'm about to type in the name of the recipient, the letters and list just disappears after about 3 letters, and "deselects" the recipient window, so I have to touch it again to activate the keyboard.
Often when I write with the keyboard, my phone appears to kinda "forget" that I just typed in a letter when I follow up with the next letter to fast. This doesn't happen as long as I keep pressing the letter before typing the next one.
Anyone experience similar problems? Would've been awesome if there was some kind of fix to this...
Thanks in advance!
