Palm Threaded App ripped from wm6 rom

and works better
http://rapidshare.com/files/45496605/shogunmark_wm6_threaded.cab

Would I sound like an idiot for asking what this is?

It gives you threaded sms like on the Palm Treos. So basically when you talk to someone it looks like a chat window like AIM or something, good stuff! I am downloading and installing now

that was really fast! I love this app - thanks!

My girlfriend and I installed it and we no longer have the left soft key that says SMS. How do we fix it?

I just installed it and there is one problem:
On my device there are like 1500 Messages and it's importing them in Groups of 10. After each group i have to restart to get the next 10.
Is there any way to import all SMS?

yeah, I had to remap the softkey too. I used SKTools to edit it.

@Shogunmark
Can you let us know what the differences are between this version and your last version of this app?
Any difference between this final and the beta?
Thanks
Marc

too sweet
i will be testing this on my trip tomorrow.
i gotta make more friend that text message, preferable of the female persuasion. =)

does this version still have problem of 'recbar.dll missing' when trying to record a sound?

yes, recbar.dll still missing... i forgot about that... but will work on that issue...
I took out the sms softkey cause it gets on my nerves i always have to remap that thing, i guess i could always make a quick cab to renable it...
the app still looks the same, but some things that have changed....
MMS send was boosted to 600k.
you can now send mp3's via mms.
if you have a message thread open and that person sends you a message it will now alert you.
thats about all that really comes to mind, im sure my testers that had this can come up with more...

nice. thanks you.

Checking it out now.

Great work.

Hopefully this works out good on the mogul.. im crossing my fingers lol. does it look similar to the palm threaded app?

So i'm guessing this is a upgrade. I had a problem with SMS thread when my phone all of a sudden stop receiving text because i guess some went into my old text format somehow and the others i don't know where they went. Any idea if that's been fixed?

it looks exactly the same, they didnt change the look of it, they just fixed some bugs in it...

Looks the same as the previous version. Unfortunately, the annoying 'soft keyboard overlapping the text entry area' problem still exists. I wonder if Palm will ever fix it ...
Thanks Shogunmark.

this is the actual palm threaded app, it replaces the sms inbox on your phone, and works very well... the messages get stored in a different file in their own format...
ON ANOTHER NOTE, A QUICK WARNING
IF YOU HAVE MESSAGES IN YOUR REGULAR SMS INBOX THESE WILL NOT BE CONVERTED OVER INTO THE THREADED APP.. I WOULD EVEN SUGGEST BACKING UP YOUR CURRENT SMS INBOX IN CASE YOU NEED TO REVERT BACK (ALSO SUGGEST DELETING ALL YOUR MESSAGES IN THE OEM SMS INBOX TO HELP ON STORAGE SPACE)

True Threaded Texting in TF3D?

I'm running stock Sprint 6.1. My question is, when I go to the Messages tab, click on the latest message, it shows all of my texts on top and the texts I received last. It's not true threaded sms. Am I missing something, or is clicking on "All Messages" and using the WinMo interface really the easiest way? I think TF3D is much better and more productive all around, except for this. It doesn't seem very thought through.

The Messages Tab does not support threaded messaging. It only supports a chronological order - but it only sorts messages starting with the newest message - from anybody.
When entering the WM interface in "All Messages", that's when threading is supported. By threading, it means when you click on the person, you see your whole "conversation"; not just you see all your messages in a chronological order.
Well, in other words, I don't know of any tweak to enable a chronological order in which the oldest message comes first in Manila. Nor do I know of any tweak to view conversations ("threads") in the Manila interface.
*Bolded: you can see messages you sent? I never got that on my old T-Mo stock ROM!

When I go to the Messages tab, it just shows the last received text. When I click on it, is where I see the "threaded" texts with mine above and received below. They're in chronological order, but separated by sent and received. I was looking to see if they can mix so they are all in chronological order.

Oh, well sorry for the confusion in my post!
I think the only thing the Messages Tab supports is Inbox messages in chronological order with latest first, oldest last.
However, I'll try to look for some fixes that might work for you.

I guess not many people mind it. I hope someone has a fix with them that they can post here because I've been searching, and all I can find are tweaks to change the tab themes and fonts.

You are experiencing some kind of bug. The TouchFlo threading is supposed to work just like the WM default threading. They are also both incredibly slow if you have more than 10 messages.

Interesting. Thanks for your time, sumflipnol.

The only layout I've ever seen on the Manila Messaging Tab (on every ROM I've used), is chronological Inbox messages with the most recent message first. I don't know how to set it to a different layout (outbox, conversation, most recent last) in the Tab.

On the tab it is chronological, but when you click one of the messages (anywhere on the text) you are taking into a manila style conversation view.

It IS a bug. Something jacked up since the new year!
Check the date on all your incoming messages.. mine show year 2016!
All sent messages get the correct date... so this is why they are cut in half (some on top, some on bottom).
WTF HTC?????????
Y210K bug get you?
My latest received message says 1/4/16, my reply, 1/4/10
Interesting enough, if I use windows mobile app, the date/threading works fine, so it is a problem with HTC.

yeah i guess thats why, Manila couldnt match the dates to view the conversation of the SMSes correctly.
and btw, there is a fix for the 2016 thingy, a cab, i saw it somewhere around ehre

UPDATE - Just called HTC... they say they are aware of the issue and they are working to get it resolved asap. Couldn't give me an ETA or how the fix would be distributed.

Looks like you guys are faster then HTC
I did a search for 2016 and saw many other people have posted this problem as well as some fixes.

Oh, sorry. I know about that.
I just have it disabled because I'm using an old version of the "Disable HTC Messaging Client" cab (I hate the Leo messaging, and this cab also disables all HTC Messaging), so that doesn't launch for me anymore!
Sorry about the confusion guys.

I tried the search 'SMS limit' but no solution came up...
Who can help me?

I'm sorry but any more info?
Used the search, only a few roms turned up?

The search function here is helpful, but not always perfect. Here's the app he mentioned, which I also recommend for it's usefulness even beyond what you're needing it for.

HTC DESIRE SMS simple texts ?

I dislike the SMS and Hancent text programmes.
I migrated from a Nokia E71 and prefer the simple SMS format
PLEASE PLEASE help as all I want is an app that will work and give me simple texts with an INBOX DRAFT SENT OUTBOX
can someone please help?

I cant think of any reason you want to do that - non-threaded convos were one of the bigger reasons I got rid of my E71
But to answer your question, I have np idea if such sms replacer app exists :-[

Definitely agree, wen I first saw the threaded verson I thought wtf is this n how do I turn it off!! But within a day of using it, I realised its the best improvement to sms that I've seen in a LONG time. Stick with it and you'll see what I mean.

Thanks for that but I also had an Iphone which I hated.
I am familiar with 'conversations' but whatever anyone else thinks I prefer the old system and find the thread way confusing and annoying!
I want a simple INBOX SENT OUTBOX
I may have a 2 week old Desire for sale if not

lol your not serious about selling your desire just because it has as default the conversation sms style?
look in the market maybe theres something for you, if not then get used to it cuz it really isnt that hard and your probably 1 out of 100+ that doesnt like this style, and to be honest most of the phones these days have it that way anyway so might be a bit tough for you to replace the functionality of a desire with a different phone that has the 'old' sms style
btw. instead of having the simple INBOX SENT OUTBOX u got even simpler all in one. theres no need for outbox anyway

Wow... I can't believe that some people don't like conversation view. It saves so much time compared with flicking between the message I'm writing and the one I'm replying to!

You're not the only one. I also hated conversation view when I got my Hero, but got used to it eventually. I might look at creating an app to solve this problem (simple mind you, like an SMS reader rather than AIO)

I can understand you because when I receive sms from my girlfriend I prefer having an isolated message than a thread thats looks more like a chat ^^ search on the market for sms manager its a freeware

What I find annoying is the small space allocated to my text message as I'm entering it. Why not devote half a screen to it so I can see my whole message as I type it? Sometimes I type a long sentence and the start has scrolled off, so i only notice mistakes after i've sent them.

The more & more I use texts the more & more I am tempted to switch back to my Nokia E71

OK instead of people telling this guy he's crazy for not loving it let's attempt to be more helpful in a practical sense.
What is it in particular you find confusing about a threaded conversation? Give me an example of a use case where having your messages organised in this way is less than suitable. Maybe if we clear up the confusion you'll find it easier.

well if you do go back to the E71 dont ever upgrade your phone because as far as i know all phones are using this new conversation style sms system now even the new nokias so i would try and get used to it if i were you.

Contact list question regarding SMS

I have gone into the contacts and set my sim contacts as inactive, yet when I open the contact list when creating a new SMS, all my SIM contacts are there... this is really really annoying. I can not for the life of me figure out how to disable this.
I've had a G1 for the past 1.5 years, rooted and running custom roms, so I know this has to be a snake in the grass waiting to bite me. Can anyone lend a hand?
Sorry if this is a bit hard to follow, long day
And yes, I have searched.. again, I know this is probably right in front of my face.

same problem here hopefully gets fixed in and update

same crap here another two annoyances from the stock sms app is no led and if text are sent in the same minute they get outta order

I cant stand how you can sync your facebook with only the contacts that are in your address book. But then when you go to text someone is shows everyone from facebook as a option to message. I just want it to show the people in my addess book. is there any way to do this. Have it sync just your contacts with facebook and not have everyone and their mother show up in the who to message list?

go into contacts and press the option menu,then view. disable the t-mobile one contacts too. because t-mobile keeps all ur contacts too...
i had a similar problem, hope this help tho...

it still ends up coming up when you search for the name in the sms app or other apps thats just to clear it from the phone app

This phone handles syncing strange. I cant wait till its rooted so i can put a Cyanogen rom on it. Even when i delete all the tomobile contacts. It finds a way of bringing them back.

This, 1000000000 times this. If I turn off veiwing facebook for mytouch contacts in the address book it still shows 100000 people form facebook in the sms part when i go to send a new message.

Yes... the syncing on this phone is indeed weird and annoying.. it was cool at first seeing everything pool in and popup without entering any info.. then it went awire , so I hit the killswitch on the whole operation. I know this isn't an answer to the problem, but maybe u can do without syncing until the froyo update comes next week (wishful thinking) ? Or do a hard reset and resync everything over slowly

No way I could find to not see all your contacts as is described in post #1. Dowload a full-featured sms app.

Handcent or Chomp. I prefer the former but have not used the latter much. For all new Android users reading this...please use androidtapp.com for reviewing apps. If they have reviewed the app, it is very thorough, including screen shots and an overall rating. This also gives you an idea of what the app can do, especially in comparison to a stock app so you don't have to frumpenuzzle with it yourself.

Just a word on handcent. I can not stand the way it looks. Its a blatent iphone look-a-like
