Threaded Texting - Display Length? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

I really like the threaded messaging, but I don't have unlimited messages and I miss the "message length" of the old system. You know, the #/160 at the bottom.
Is there a way to display this with threaded texting? Anyone else consider this?
Yes, I know that there are other apps that do threaded texting on WM, and probably with more options like message length, but I've tried a couple and they seemed somewhat buggy or unreliable.
Thanks for any info or comments...

When you start typing, the number appears instead of "Text messages" beside the start icon

WOW.
Been using 6.1 for at least a couple months and never noticed it. Maybe because I have Wisbar and it's a little obscured.
So yeah, I feel pretty stupid now!
But thanks a lot!

Hey... when you're in threaded SMS mode and you do a reply, is there anyway to display the number of characters you're using in the replied thread?
The new MS Threaded SMS certainly displays the number of characters when doing a new SMS but doesn't seem to display when replying....

It should appear in the title bar in a reply.

SMS Problems, Touch Flo 3d SMS Problems.

Hello All,
I'm on the first 24hrs with my new HTC Touch Pro 2. Liking it so far!
Through using advanced config I've finally gotten rid of the
sms sent notification which was going to make me return the device it was
that annoying however:
Whenever I send an SMS in a threaded conversation it shows up in bold.
If I back out to all threads it shows "1 Unread" which is the one I sent (wtf).
So at times if I send three sms's to someone, it will show "3 unread" and touch
flo 3d will show 3 unread. I physically have to go in and out of the conversation
with the specific person 3 times, in order to clear it out. @#$(&@#($!!! is it just me? How do I fix this?
edit: it seems like if i send an sms I have to spend a few seconds in the conversation for it to register before I back out, and then it doesn't show
1 unread. But still. How is it unread if I thought it up and sent it?
Lastly, because of the way I cannot see threads in touch flo 3d in regards to
SMS i just completely avoid it and hit "all messages" and sms that way (anyone else hate flicking through a huge sms inbox?)
please help,
bluecoat
TF3d does have a threaded view; just click on the SMS and it brings up the conversation

? If you are conversing with MANY people, TF3d is buns. Do you know anything about my question?
hmmmm... strange, I thought it stays 'bold' until its actually sent.
Check your outbox, is the message still there when its bold?

Text/sms counter issue

I have the read others thread about the touchflo counter being off but my problem a a bit different. Along with that issue the touchflo counter,the counter within the text app itself is not resetting. In the past with my wing if I replied to someone the new text notifcation goes away but not with my tmobile tp2. Instead it registers their messages & my replies as unread. If I exit out of the app & go back to our "conversation" it doesnt take to the newest one from me/them but to the older part of the convo.
Edit: Only work possible work around seems to be going unthreaded or a text app such as etreme text. I havent found any real aternative text app. Ive tried different version of the arcsoft txt cabs but same results which leads to to believe its a winmo issue.
go to the conversation that shows unread messages & then scroll through all the texts with the arrows on the keyboard. look for the bolded messages, they are the unread ones. once you select them with the arrow keys they'll register as read.
i hate this issue too. if you have the damn threaded message open & are replying the the messages, it should just mark them as read.
god I hate this so much!!! I keep all my texts... often they contain information I need. But like this its pretty inconvenient. There's got to be some kind of reg mod to fix this thing...

Text messages

when im reading a text message in touchflo, i tap the message and it takes me to another touchflo messaging thing tht takes forever to load. i liked how my old TP took me to the windows threaded messaging and it loaded much quicker. any way i can do this?
i usually just click all messages and click on the message i want to reply to.
I got my TP2 yesterday... i noticed a huge lag in responding to text messages once i added all my TP text messaging history/data to my new TP2...
It takes like 15 seconds to load all the message history when i tap a text message in touchflo in order to reply.... on my touchpro i just taped a textg message and 4-5 second later im in threaded messaging ready to reply. This was way better... maybe someone can figure it out with a reg edit or something

Threaded texts in thouch flow?

Maybe I am just stupid but I cant find a way to put the text msgs in the thouch flow software in threaded mode. It seems kind of retarted that it would not come defaulted this way but who knows.
I have a sprint TP2 running wm6.1 stock rom if this makes a difference.
No one has this problem, does touch flo even do threaded texts?
Anyone?
If I am not mistaken, I believe I have the same ridiculous problem. Is what you are trying to say is when you click on your SMS from TouchFlo, it goes into HTC's messing program, correct? From there, all the messages you received are on top while the messages you sent are on the bottom? If that is your problem, those are all your old messages you transferred from the old phone.
Any new messages you get, will be threaded from onwards. If that is your problem is well, I am also trying hard to find a solution to fix that.
kind of
I want it set up so on the messaging tab it just shows the name and then when you click on the name it shows the conversation.
How its setup now its like WM 5 and not the threaded style in WM 6 and 6.1. Actually 6 was the same way i think....I cant remember.
Anyway if you cant do this now they better put it in the new touch flo for 6.5 or i am going to be pissed its not hard to do the programming for it.
Anyone?
you cant tell me no one else wants threaded mode in touch flo?
If any one has there sprint or any TP2 for that matter in threaded text mode pls let me know.
Can someone atleast respond with a yes or no you can or cannot do this?
I have threaded messages in Touch Flo on my Tilt2.
Can you turn it off? or did it come defaulted that way?
For me it's only threaded once I click the message. It's not actually threaded on the Touch FLO today screen plugin, would love if it was though

Yea thats what I am saying if you want to go to the next coversation you need to go thought the whole current conversaton just to get to the next one. After you click on a text it then opens the threaded msg.
The main screen only shows the last 25 messages you got, in order. Pressing the message then takes you to the threaded conversation with that person.
How would it even work another other way? How would you see different conversations?
if you click on a contact in touchflo you can go to the messaging tab and it will ptu you into the last conversation you had with that person via text. the messaging tab is more so for quick viewing of the most recent messages.
yea there is no way to change it?
Can any one provide a sold answer here?
Can this be done I dont want to see the latest msg in touch flo I was to see the names in a list. The person I got a msg from last should be the name at the top.

anyone is having some lag in the sms app?

I have over 1800 text messages on my phone. So I don't know for sure. But I do know the stock HTC messaging app lags quite some when trying to scroll back up to read older messages. This is for the long threads with over 600 messages. But also for small threads with just 10 messages. I tried installing Handcent SMS which scrolls smoothly through all of it, but I'm not a fan of the look.

Well, um, it may have something to do with the fact that you have 1800 messages.
Tip
Open the Messaging application
Press "Menu" key
Tap "Settings"
Toggle on "Delete old messages"
Set the "Text message limit" to a conservative number. I think 100 should be good enough for most people. (Not sure what's the big deal with holding on to thousands of SMS history...)
