Address-autocompletion in WM6

Hi Folks!
Has anyone managed to get the To-Field autocomplete functionality in WM6 back to how it worked under WM5? Under WM5 it checked the name I typed into the To-Field against the Addressbook in "realtime" - under WM6 I now have to go into the Menu and select "Check Names".
Ciao,

I don't find anything negative in "Geek" and I would define myself as such but since I definitely did not mean to offend anyone and since It's sure that at least one person did take it that way I've changed my posting.

Lol, ok ok
My autocomplete seems to work fine on WM6. I start typing the name and i get a list automatically pop up so i can just click it. I get this for SMS and email. MMS unfortunately i still have to click to and then add names manually but then i had to do that with WM5 anyway.
Didn't really get offended, just having one of those days mate, sorry

That's strange - for me it does not. Have you installed an extended ROM? Because I haven't and thats the only difference I can think of.

No problem mate! But still I will not call anyone Geek anymore since it's apparently not for everyone as positive as for me.

Nope, only cabs i've installed from an ext rom are the ones that get video calling working.
Pretty sure that it was working before then though......
With WMXL v.20 coming soon (no doubt you'll be upgrading) you may want to try a hard reset or perhaps a reflash to see if your problem persists.

Missed calls Today plugin for WM6

Hi,
I noticed somewere - can't recall where - that there is a "missed calls" notifier for the Today screen, looks like the New mails notifier.
Does anyone know where I can get it from?
TIA
Zohar

Phone alarm I guess, no ?

No, I mean a real Today plugin. It shows as follows:
Missed calls: N
Where N represents a number of missed calls.

this may not be what you are looking for but o2 plus has a today plugin that will show the last call whether missed or dialed... it has a ton of good plugins in it.. if you want it just do a general search for o2 plus

Many thanks. I will give it a try tomorrow. My JasJam is being tested overnight with Exchange 2007 for seeing the new features supported with WM6

I use DKToday - It dhows your network and signal strength, the days missed calls, days talk time, months talk time and months txts sent as well as having a little icon that turns bluetooth on and off.
Takes up double the room of the new messages today plugin and shows more than you're after, but maybe worth a look if the other info is of interest.

I've been using your CAB for a couple of days now, and I didn't even thank you...
so, thank you, o2plus is gr8!
found out they have even more apps, like messaging plus(treaded messaging that does not replace the original messaging!)
but they are very hard to get "patched"
anyway, TNX!

I can CONFIRM this works with WM6 on Dopod 838 Pro
Thanks.
This seems to be an earlier version of O2 Plus, the one a recall on the O2 Atom had options of modifying the font size and so on in the setup.
Is there a later release ?
Does anyone know how I can remove the bottom 2 lines on WM6 today screen - which is "Calendar and Contacts" and above this "Battery status and Comm Manager"
Cheers

You know how to upgrade to WM6 and install CABs but you don't know how to remove plugins from the today screen ?!? What is this world coming to.. ay ay ay....

To remove plug-ins don't you just go to "Start>Settings>today" then choose the "Items" tab and unselect the plug-in you want removed from the today screen.
If you want to remove the whole plug-in and it's program, just uninstall the program from the "remove programs" application. (under the "System" tab in settings)

Thanks for the reply again but I looked everywhere but couldn't find it...I guess it is a registry edit again !!

did you find the registry edit? can you post solution... I'm also looking for ways to see more emails

Try HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Inbox/RichTextFontSize -- I believe the default is 10.

I have an s630 and I have Accessibility under settings. The first option is font size. Odd that your Dopod isn't the same.

yeah the dopods do not have it...
when you change it under accessibilty, do you know which registry entry it changes? is it the one noted on this thread?

that's exactly what he meant
works too

Resetting "Predictive Text"??

hi, Does anyone know how to reset the predictive text? I have words that i've mis-spelled and they are getting annoying...
Cheers,

*bump*
anyone?

I know for a fact that it can be done, but I can't remember for the life of me how.
I think it is done via one of the menus available whilst composing an SMS.

Goto keyboard settings and there it is

For WM5 there is a very good solution (does not work for WM6 though).
It's freeware, get it here: http://dmitriy.geels.googlepages.com/dictionaryeditor
Good luck.

Hi, this was suggested in a post earlier

^ Just trying to help.

yeh cheers.
The program 'DictionaryEditor' only seems to save settings if you delete the main dictionary, and then do a soft reset. I was amazed at the number of drunken words!

Hi this is the first time here, I've just bought a Touch Dual, can I know how to change the dictionary setting, there're a lot of words that poses no meaning is there a way to remove them?
Thanks guys

Is all good, always try whole names or phrases when searching, too short won't work. OZ Messenger is what you needed to type.

I can't say if it's better or not, I just use it because I use sms not an internet plan.

Anyone wanna give me some help on how to write for chome?
Maybe I'll be able to start offering more to the community? 0_0
