I was able to get it to work, the only problem is the fonts are kinda small. I'm trying to figure out a way to see if I can make them any bigger.
Here's a link and some screen shots.

quick one, where do you get this famous threaded sms app?
i'm sure the font issue is a registry tweak
I have the app from my Treo 700wx. You can get this app on the web, TreoCentral is a good place to start.
the other problem with the app is that you can't get back to your inbox without closing the app out first. I have set task manager to a speed dial so I press "2" to close the app then I get back in my inbox and can navigate between inbox,outbox, drafts etc. Otherwise the app works very well.
I couldnt get it to uninstall. I tried doing it through "remove programs" but no luck. Oh well it had already been like a week since I formatted
Hey there,
I got the CAB file - how do I install it?
Install it the same way you do any .cab file. I usually put it in my programs folder on my Dash using Activesync, then navigate to that folder on my Dash and open the .cab.
Thanks! I installed it. Any idea on the hacks / changes I need to make to get it working? When I run the program, i'm good to go. however, there's no way to go "back". When I press the "<-" button on my Dash, it exits the program.
So if I'm in a threaded chat with someone, I can't get back to the view where i choose which converesation to enter. Anyone know of a good guide to get it working?
Thanks so much!
That's the problem, it wasn;t designed for a smartphone, it was for ppc phones. The way I get around this is I set task manager to my speed dial #2 and I have to end the app. Then I can get back into the inbox. It's a bit annoying, but I still find it better than our other options right now. It was never intended to run on a non-touch screen device, it actually surprised me when I got it running.
I got it running back in December, and was happy it still worked with WM6.
This is when I got it running on WM5:

Notifications?
Did anybody ever get the font to a readable size, or get it to make a notification sound? I searched to no avail...
no... still squinting read the damn texts... i have the files if anyone needs them! just pm me!
btw... did anyone find out a registry hack to map the back button to going back to the main menu of palm sms threader? so annoying to go to task manager... close it and then open it again! any idea how to uninstall it and go back to regular wm6 sms? hard reset?! eek
Hi,
Where can I download this application.
I used to use TXTman with WM5 and it was ok. But its not working well with WM6.
pm me please.

any luck with this?
Has anyone had any luck running TxTMan on WM6 or any threaded SMS program for that matter? I just installed it, but it won't read my SMS messages through TxTMan when the program is open.
no luck with this app it sounds interesting..
give THIS a shot

Exactly... install Kavana's ROM and stop worrying about it ! lol
Hi All.
Long Time Browser, First Time Poster! (On These Forums )
First Of All I Would Just Like To Say That These Forums Have Been My Place Of Obsession For The Last Week Or So And Thanks To All The Members Who Make This Place What It Is.... The Best HTC Universal Forums On The Web (IMO)
Now Thats Out Of The Way, Down To Business.
Im Looking For The Fastest Latest Rom To Use On My XDA Exec (Preferably Not A Network Branded One)
Also I Currently Have The Helmi AKU3.5 1.3.1 Rom On My XDA And Whenever I Restore My Backup Made With SPB Backup To My Device Everything Works Apart From My Contacts.
Everytime I Try To Access My Contacts The Window Just Pops Up And Then Dissapears. The Contacts Window Works Before I Restore But Not After.
The Same Thing Happens When I Restore My Contacts With PimBackup.
Any Help Would Be Greatly Appreciated.
Thanks In Advance
OllieD
Ok Ive Solved My Contacts Problem.
PimBackup Works Fine. The Problem Was With Restoring My Old Pim.Vol File With My Old Pim.Vol Contacts Dont Work And Pim Backup Says It Cannot Access Contacts Through Outlook.
I Just Removed The Pim.Vol after Restoring My Backup Soft Reset My Device And A Clean Pim.Vol Was Created By The System, I Then Ran PimBackup And Restored And It All Works.
Lets Just Hope I Dont Have Any Other Bugs Lurking Around.
Question About Fastest Rom Still Stands, Is Helmi AKU 3.5 1.3.1 The Latest Fastest Most Compatible Rom ?
How long does it take you to type when you're capitalizing the first letter of every word??!?

Hehe, I was thinking that...
And welcome to the forums Ollie, you may want to try out a WM6 ROM, sample the new features available (you can always return to a WM5 ROM afterward, Helmi 3.5 is probably one of the best. Although there are Vanilla (bloat removed) ROMs that may be faster).
If You Type In All Capitols It's Formatted Like This Automatically,
So It Actually Should Take Less Time Then Typing Normally.
Typing In "Propper Case" Is An Old Habbit Im Tryin To Kick.
Doesnt Take Me Any More Time To Type Like This Than In Lower Case.
My Pinky Heads For The Shift Key On Autopilot Lol
I Heard The WM6 Roms Are Full Of Bugs ?
Im Also Lookin For The Most Stable Rom,
I Know PDA's Are Prone To Crashes Anyways But Id Like To Keep Them To Their Absolute Minimum.

I use the new PDAVIET ROM, no crashes whatsoever. The main reason to avoid WM6 is the lack of videocall, but does anyone actually use that?
If Thats The Case. What Version Of PDAVIET Am I Looking For ?

Thank You markymanxxx
Will Give It A Blast.
BTW Ive Found Now That My Pictures & Video Isnt Working.
Anyone Know If Theirs A Database For That As It Acts The Same Way My Contacts Was Acting, Jus Says Pictures & Video On The Top Bar And Then Dissapears.
Yes, I've finally gotten around to looking into this whole cab making malarkey and while this is an existing one customised to fit my needs, it's a good learning curve
It's the palm threaded SMS app and it just plain rocks - really
So anyway, I've tested this on WM6 (Black 4) and it really works. Everything is already set up in this for using with T-Mobile and MMS works too! It integrates nicely with the HTC homescreen and includes a custom alert tone (hope you like it! )
Just to make sure the install goes OK, please use the task manager to stop the messaging \ poutlook \ tmail processes before you run the cab as I believe this could cause problems.
You will lose your existing SMS and MMS messages in the standard messaging app so if you want to keep them, use PIMBackup first
It's a fantastic app and I recommend giving it ago and if you're on T-Mob, I've just made it a little easier for you
Cheers,
Smiffy.

EDIT 1: Fixed MMS settings

If you ever vist bristol I may be tempted to reward you. thanks.. a handy cab.

Thanks

Good point! Nice work on the cab Lord but some reassurance would be fantastic
Service provider?
Have installed it and its quality. I can't send mms though. In the settings its set to cingular. I've got the tmob settings bar the centre number any ideas?
screen shot
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/10/18/treo-750v-threaded-sms-mms-app-hacked-for-all/
looks like that
I'm looking at it now - I did test it on mine first but I think it probably kept the registry settings when I uninstalled it and re-installed it.
As for uninstalling...on my T-Mobile UK MDA Vario II, it uninstalled perfectly and everything reverted to the standard messaging app...BUT, as with anything like this, please don't just take the poster's word for it - use PIMBackup and and back it all up first!! It will most likely work OK, but...sh*t happens ;-)
Smiffy.
Thanks man. Your word is always good enough
OK, there were 2 places in the registry where the MMS settings were stored and I only changed 1 but it's sorted now (tested 3 times ;-)
And no, my word isn't good enough ;-) Back it up!! :-D
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Fixed and fantastic
Think this will quite possibly be the first cab i'll install after future flashes. Intelligent fuctionality.
Cheers Lordsmiff nice work
Forgot to say that when i uninstalled first version my old sms and mms were still there. When i reinstalled the new ones reappeared. Like lordsmiff says back up just in case but it didnt completely remove messages only temporarily when using the app.
You're right, it doesn't remove the old messages, it just uses a different message store but, at the risk of repeating myself ;-) back it up anyway
Which reminds me - if you want to reflash your device and then get all your threaded SMS messages back, you need to backup a file in the Windows folder called "PalmMsgV001" and also a folder in Windows called "MMS"
The file has all the text messages and stuff in and the folder has all the images etc from MMS messages in (I found that out the hard way )
Copy those two to your storage card and then back after a reflash to have everything back in threads
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Moved to rapidshare at mod's request
Anyone have any ideas where better to put it as I know some people (myself included) can't get them during working hours...damn those proxys
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Is it possible to install this threaded sms cab then alter the network settings by installing one of the available operator cabs or does the setting need to be entered manually?
Thanks.
i havent looked at lordsmiff's version... but if its anything like the ones i posted there is a possible issue of mms not working if you enter the settings manually... but his could be different...
There's not much chance of it being too different - it's based on your cab
If you want me to mod it for your provider, I can do that for you
Just PM me the connection details and I'll see what I can do
Cheers,
Smiffy.
i had another thought if you wanted to run with the idea.. i go back to work today so my time is going to be limited again.
The original version where based on the sprint connections, when i extracted all the files from the cingular treo rom and dumped the registry i compared them, i noticed all the reg settings were pretty much the same except for 2 lines and of course all the provider settings. But im thinking that if we left out the hard coded provider settings and allow the user to enter them manually that this may stop the "sometimes" apparent connection issues with MMS. So basically have a generic threaded cab with no provider settings hard coded at all... and if someone wanted to feel ambitious enough they could make cabs with just the hard coded reg settings for different providers (not the whole app)..
Hi!
Sounds great! Can it also be used for a other provider ? If yes; how do I know my settings ?
Does it show a alerts and integrates it good in the HTC Home Screen ?

I really love this app and would like to go back to it. MMS has always worked for me when using shogunmarks version but I think its limited to 300k.
Since your offering lord would you make one for AT&T?
I linked the settings I would have just posted them here but didn't want to miss something so I linked the main page for you.

One thing everyone should know when using this app is if you use any kind of app that closes programs like HTC Task Manager for example you need to add the Palm Threaded app to the exclusive list so it does NOT close when pressing x.
What happens a lot of times is most people write their txt msg and just click the x but with the threaded you have to wait until the msg is actually sent.
So the app should be running most of the time..
Hi,
What about the new sms notify; does it show an alerts and integrates it good in the HTC Home Screen ?

I dont think there is a way to split it. it's just like that in newer rom versions.
Maybe you want to try Palm threadded application, its pretty cool...
The palm threaded app is wicked nice. I was always disgusted how my 8525 handled messages.

here u go. just don't use the automatic settings if u don't have at&t.
I've read the thread, but I still don't understand what this does. I've never had a Palm, or anything other than PPC's. I use an 8525.
I would love to see the text messaging improved. What does this do?
I really learn a lot from this forum.
Thanks,
Mona

This is the Palm Threaded Messenger. Chat style SMS and MMS.
It was taken from the Palm 700WX (I think), which is a WM5 Palm Treo on Sprint.
I am using it now on my 8525, running Black Majik and Radio 1.47.
Hope This Helps,
Jim
how do i uninstall this palm treaded sms?
I couldn't remove the Palm Threader. I had to manually delete the files. I installed the Shogun version (which is conisderably smaller) and seems to work just fine. The Palm one is 4Mb. The Shogun cab is less than 1Mb. And it removes without issue.
ive uninstalled the The Shogun cab. but its still there. how can i remove it?

Difference...
What is the difference between shogun_cingy_Threaded.cab and the palm app besides the size?
I tried to remove the palm app but it appears to still be there.
Where are the files for the palm app?
Call me old fashion but is there a way of using the old SMS app on the first original rom, im not too keen on the new style.

You would need to install the attached CAB file if you want to revert to the original Windows Mobile SMS screen instead of the Manila SMS screen. That is what you are referring to right?
cheers mate
