Small question, but is there a way to revert the old 'New' message button we used to have in WM5 back to WM6?
WM6 introduced a 'Delete' button in the Text Messages screen, since MS is convinced people use the delete more often then the new message function.
I hardly delete messages, so really would love to see my 'New' message button returned somehow.

PM me your email address and I will send it to you.
What I do to "solve" this problem
I simply changed one of the two softkeys on the today screen to "New SMS". Now I can start writting sms without even having to open up the messaging application.
You can do this under Start | Settings | System | Soft Key
Hope this helps some of you
Where can i find the file for placing the "new sms" on my left softkey for htc soft keys?
Tnx in advance

Go to start>settings>system then soft key, then you see the screen for left or right soft key, scroll up and down on the left key list and choose new sms, this should do it.

I like the program, the only problem is it can only do SMS and MMS. There is no E-mail way of doing this. I tried changing the e-mail setting to my
Mobile.exchange.mail2web.com
and it went through, but never got delivered to my friend. Is there any way to get this to work since i don't really feel like using 2 different program to send out messages?
If not then i guess I'll just set my messaging to only goto Outlook and then use the Today screen plugin for the Palm SMS to use for my text messages.

I tried the cab (tnx a lot) and it works, it did link the left soft key with "new sms" but if i tap it, i get this message: "the file tnsms.exe cannot be opened.Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its componenet cannot be found.if the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring hte file"
Why?
Whats wrong?
If i look manually for the tnsms.exe file in the position the cab said it is i cant find it...

Have you used HtweakC which is in the list of programmes? If not open it and click on tweaks>security and tick the box that allows non-certified applications, then try to again.
It was already checked and it doesnt work, but i solved everything using newmenu for wm5..btw, tnx a lot for the help, this forum is great!!!
hey
Is it possible to do so when you click all contract in contacts in TF3D then it open funcontact, and not the normal contact list.
and the same in sms when you click the sms then it open sms chat, and not the normal one.?

It is possible only for the contacts (at least for now).

SSMapa does what you need. For the sms' it's not possible yet because if you replace the tmail.exe then when you click on messages you will be able to have vito sms chat, but the same thing will happen if you click on seeing your emails.

Try a search for SSMaPa...this will do the trick...
I have replaced many of my default applications using this
EDIT:
Seems somebody just posted it parallely
tanks, but what .exe in it is the one for contacts?
After going through this forum i decided to build this app.
this app is still a beta(plz test)
This basically allows a user to set up time when the device will wake up and check if there are any bdays(after 2 hrs) and if there is then it will send a user configurable message to that contact.
This app also allows the user to add all his contacts bday from contact list to the calendar as an appointment.
NOTE: This app will send messages to only those contacts who have been added thru this app.
Steps to use it:
1. Go to options and add contact Bdays.
2. Set a generic BDay wish message.
3. Set the scheduler default is 00:00Hrs
4. Options-> save and exit.
How It works:
1> Select all the Bday from the contacts in outlook contacts and add those in the calendar as an appointment.
2> User configures a birthday message to be sent thru the SMS to the BDay BOY/GIRL.
3> Select a scedule time at which the app will run and check if there are any bdays to be wished. (threshold time is 2hrs). This is done by creating a notification to save memory and battery.
4> After checking for any bdays the app will reschedule it self for the next day at the same time.
5> If there are bday in calendar it will send a SMS to that contact with ur wish message.
SocialSync
XDA member binary64 has developed a tool to import the facebook details to your outlook contacts,
so now you can get bdays for your contacts configured through facebook...
SocialSync
Requirement:
.net3.5
Please test and let me know if there are any problems.
To check for logs please find the log file in the install location/BDaySMS/log.msg (It contains success messages, Contact name to whom it has sent the message and error messages.)
NEW UPDATE
If you have installed the previous version(before v.3) please copy clean.zip and run it before you install the updated version. Clean.exe will clean the bday appointments created by the BDaySMS app from the calendar. It will not effect your other appointments.
Fixed some crashes and bugs.
Gives another option in menu to clean bdays appointments created by this app.
It creates bday appointments under the category "SMSBIRTHDAYS" earlier it was "BIRTHDAYS"
Before v.3 There was a crash every time a bday sms was sent. This has been fixed. PLZ take the new cab.
UPDATES FOR v0.3
1. User can now set a custom message with option to add name.
2. Clear Schedule now works, removes the schedule from device.
Using name:
NOTE: To add name of the person click add name button, this will insert a string in the message that will be replaced with the Contacts Nick Name or first name (if user has no nick name then it will take first name), So for your contacts please make sure that you have a correct Nick name or a First Name.
UPDATE FOR v0.4
1. BUG FIX: If there are more than one bdays on the same day and a custom name message has been configured, the application sends the same name to all the contacts. This issue has been fixed in v0.4 Thanks to Luigi_follina
2. Calendar event now has the status free.
UPDATE FOR v0.5
Added progress bar at the bottom to show the progress while adding contacts bday to calendar.
UPDATE FOR v0.6
1. Fixed an issue were it would send the message to the old number if the number was changed for a contact.(Thanks to Luigi for pointing out)
2. Clean the entries from menu option then add again.
Update for V 1.0
1. Appointments will be added as a fullday event.
2. The birthday messages sent will be saved in sent items of your sms.
v 1.1
1. Fixed condition where sendsms.exe keeps running in the background.
After installing clean the contacts bday first using the menu option in the app and then add again.
SUPPORT LATE NIGHTS- DONATE!
Will test this on Leo

Hey, I have installed this app but, you missed to tell everyone that one should install .Net 3.5 to run this app. Well, I did and so far it makes sense.
Also, it makes sense to develop an app for filtering calls too...

I was looking for this application since a long time! Cannot wait to test it!!
First bug
It is not a blocking bug, but something that can be enached.
I saw that the program looks among my Outlook contact and makes a match with the Outlook calendar events, which is fantastic.
But for the contacts that have also a "Middle Name", for some reasons, the program creates a new calendar event and basically does not consider the already present events.
I dont know is I wrote correctly the bug; I hope so.
Many Thanks!
Ciao!

This is an awsome application but I was wondering if something could be intigrated into facebook to allow people to send a message to friends on there who list thier numbers and birthdays... NOW that would sell a million ;-) Like Moonpig.com but for Mobiles lol... also maybe choose a preset picture message too... just a few things to get ya teeth sunk into this xmas

Yes i was expecting that, as it looks for the first and the last name only...
i think it should satisfy almost all names, so i overlooked that.
and one more thing even if it overlooks the already added events it might not trigger sms for those as they were not added thru this application.
so u might have to delete the already present (birthday)events which were not created using this and then run add contacts from this app again

Mohit, thanks for giving shape to the idea. I've set it on my phone though had some issues with display on Touch HD but was able to use the controls and set it up. Couple of questions that I had in mind -
1. Does it have to be left running at all times or can I at least shove it off my running task list.
2. Every time I add a new contact and his / her birthday do I have to update this software too to add the new contact to it's list.
But otherwise it seems to be a nice piece of work. If you can spare some time for refinement do let me know.
Thanks,
Umesh.
Can you tell me if it works on your contacts or your calander?
Sorry didn't read the first post.. found the awser in there.
Hi,
I just transfered ALL my text messages (3642 text messages) from my Kaiser to my TP2 with PIMBackup. I restored everything successful and wanted to see if everything has been transfered correctly.
Now I have the problem, that the Messaging-App takes DECADES to load the messages (about 1800 text messages in my inbox). Seriously it takes about 5 minutes, until the "windows-busy-icon" disappears. The Message app included in the slider, which only shows the newest 25 messages, takes "only" about 5 seconds, which is fine.
I have to admit, 1800 text messages is a lot, but my Kaiser had no problems at all with that amount of messages. As soon as I opened my Inbox on the Kaiser, I was able to open the messages right away.
On the TP2 on the other hand, I have to wait 5 minutes, until all the messages are loaded, before I can open a text messages.
My Inbox I have set to "Classic Mode" not the "Conversation Mode" (which I think needs even more resources).
For me, this is a BIG issue, because I text a lot - text message and Email - THATS why I bought the TP2 and not the HD2, because I appreciate the hardware keyboard. But having a Messaging App that needs 5 minutes to load makes me wanna go back to my Kaiser.
Does anyone know a solution???
Thanks,
Don

Don't store 1000 messages on your phone?
Also, dont close messaging through the task manager. If you leave it open it should open right away since everything will be cached.

When you're looking at your inbox, click the "menu" softbutton on the bottom right, then choose "tools", then "manage folders". Once there, you can create new folders or manage existing ones

Well, the reason I have this phone is, that I'm using it for business,... and for business it is essential to safe and store your messages and have em available at any time. I mean, this ridiculously expensive device should be able to manage this matter properly, just like crappy $50 phones or previous models of the TP2 (like the Kaiser).

Sorry, that looks like the HTC e-mail interface you're looking at there, you'll need to get to the underlying WM e-mail interface to do the steps I mentioned. There may be a way to turn just the HTC e-mail off (I don't know), but you can just go into settings and switch off sense altogether for a minute, then pull up e-mail and you should then have the options there.

I think that option is available when you are viewing your messages via WM messaging client. You can get there a coupe routes. Navigate to your text tab in Sense, click all message soft key. Also under start menu there is a text message option (two message bubbles) which will take you to WM messaging.
You could also store your messages in the cloud (Microsoft MyPhone or other) and download them when you need (I know its bothersome, but it would also be a solution to storing 1000s of messages at all times).
I'm going to try downloading the 3000 messages from my old WM phone and see how my phone reacts.
Hey Sirphunkee and Burtonsnow8,
thanks for the advices again, but no success so far, unfortunately.
I switched off Sense and opened the WM Messaging Client, and could see the E-Mail accounts, but as soon as I access it, it jumps back to HTC Messaging Client. Same for the text messaging.
When in WM Messaging Client, there menu only offers "Options" and "Delete". The Options didnt offer and folder management.
I also tried to access the WM Messaging Client by "file explorer", but same story, it always jumps to the HTC Messaging Client.
Is it maybe possible to do this by registry editing? Or somehow through Total Commander?
Really appreciating your help here guys!
There are a couple apps for disabling htc messaging, not sure which will work for you:

UPDATE:
Ok, seems like this is a problem of either Ark's ROM I'm using, OR the HTC Messaging Client. I just saw, that Ark just released a version of his ROM without the HTC Messaging client. Gonna test that one, next week.
@ burtonsno8: Thanks for the links, but Ark just released another ROM without HTC Messaging Client, seems like this would work with a fix. However, it would be interesting to know about your experience after flashing your 3k Messages on your TP2.

I see a lot of people having similar issues w/ HTC messaging, so Ark's new release should definitely be helpful.
I'll be testing out my msgs later tonight, because this also seems to be an issue of many users.
Just an update on this one.
ARK's ROM without HTC Messaging client helps, but is unfortunately no solution.
For some reason, when I import my text messages via PIM Backup on my TP2, the text messages are saved in the "Program" part and not in the "Storage" part of the Memory,... so after importing 3.600 messages, I have 2.1 MB of program memory left, hence, my device works in slow-mo.
This is weird, because this is different on my Kaiser, where text messages are saved in the storage part of the memory.
Is there a registry hack, which determines, where text messages are saved?
I have exactly the same issue.
Got around 1600 SMS which was fine with the original
Windows Messaging(TP2 - first original ROM) ,
but takes really long with HTC Messaging (TP2- newest original ROM).
Contacted HTC support only to have them advise me
to backup my messages with Windows MyPhone.
I'd really like to know if there's a registry hack to disable
the HTC Messaging, back to Windows Messaging
without any performance issue.
As i have no idea how to do this, would really appreciate
if anyone could let us know how.

Give this cab a try...I used a couple of different ones that did that same thing (disable HTC SMS app), this is the only one I can still turn up in my archives
Hi
Try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=664915
It helped me. It doesn't switch to WM sms client, it still uses HTC client, but it works now. Unfortunately, sollution from sirphunkee's post didn't work for me, and still that one has bugs.
Well, NONE of this will help, as long as the TP2 saves messages in the PROGRAM memory.
Like I wrote in my last update, after importing 3,600 messages I have 2.1 MB left in my PROGRAM memmory, while the the STORAGE memory is almost empty (120 MB left).
This was different on my other HTC devices,.. why does the TP2 save messages in the PROGRAM memory, that doest even make sense !?
So I'm using Josh's ROM and I'm having similar issues. This is what I posted in that thread with no replies...
"Anyone experiencing text message delays and freezes with this ROM? I have disabled Sense and installed SPB Mobile Shell. Threaded SMS and Exchange email from work. Very few apps. For some reason though, after I have a bunch of apps open, text messages won't open anymore or won't come in. Or they do and I cant open them. Sometimes I'm able to open the email (separate icon) and slide over to the texts, other times I can't. Using memclean to end all is a hit or miss as well. I find that I have to soft reset frequently, sometimes 3-4 times a day. At times, when I'm having a text conversation with someone, it will freeze up as well. I want to continue using this ROM because it's quite stable for everything else but this... Ideas anyone?
But, I've also noticed that these problems don't exist if I switch to the Sense 3D view.
Is this a WM6.5 issue or are there other forces at play beyond our knowledge?

SMS Cloud Backup reads your SMS account (no MMS available yet) and sends a backup of all your SMS Conversation (threaded) to an email account of your choice. The body of the email is filled with your conversation (one email per conversation). You can also choose to send a backup of your SMS account an an attachment in a separate email for future restores (Restore option will be available in the next release). You can also choose to clear out your SMS account folders (Inbox, Sent, and Deleted). You may install this application on your Storage Card if you so desire.
Suggestions for use:
You can set up a filter to filter all emails from Cloud SMS Backup so they all will be stored in one location. See output screenshot.
Requirements:
.NET CF 3.5

Did you buy any chance run the application twice (without exiting first)? That's what caused the error for me. I'll try and narrow down the problems (should be as simple as clearing resources and checking for null values) and re-up a new version.
Thanks for testing it out.

got the error the first time after install. so did a soft reset and tried again but same error.
is the error anything to do with active sync? want to add gmail imap but dont want to mess my email settings as already have google sync working for contacts, calender and mail.
when u re-up, will surely check again. it will be nice having messages backed up on gmail. easy to use/access than microsoft my phone.
thanks for taking the effort.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I have gmail set up on my phone and it's been working flawlessly so far. I'll cut a few debug versions and PM to you sometime today.

Please let me know of any issues, features, etc.
I plan on adding a restore feature in the next release. I added a screenshot in the first post to show what the output looks like.

Hey man...I like the idea. One question though. I turned the "Send backup file as attachment" setting to "ON", but when I sync'd with my email it wasn't one attachment. It sent 127 separate emails with the text in the e-mail, instead of an attachment. Is some sort of .txt file supposed to be created or am I not understanding the "send backup file as attachment" correctly? Thanks!

looks like NullReferenceException, some value did not fill in the array i guess.
Should be easily fixable.
Great application.
You can make similar thing for contacts also which are created in Outlook when no other sync is set.
Basically all features of Microsoft MyPhone, but instead this will be sent to emails with attachement.

You will get a separate email for each conversation you have (1 per person). You will also get another email with JUST an attachment of ALL of your messages. Consider this attachment an image of your SMS account at the time you backed up.
Since you got 127 emails, this means you were talking to 126 different people (wow!) and 1 of the emails contains an attachment with the .bin file which is your image

There are already so many apps that backup contacts as text. If there is a demand for it, i dont mind creating one (should be easy enough). I wrote this because there really isn't any GOOD THREADED SMS backup apps. My phone doesn't let you export, PIM backup isn't threaded.
Thanks for the support! I'll try and fix the few bugs already found in the next couple days.
Worked Great on my Touch Pro 2, thanks.

Gotcha. I'll look out for the .bin e-mail in there somethere. The only thing I noticed about the high number of e-mails is that I havent had that many threaded convos. I noticed that I got 4 or 5 separate emails for a convo with one person. Each e-mail would start with the same txt, but then end at varying places, then another e-mail would be recreated starting at the same spot. I wonder if it's not working properly b/c I'm on WinMo 6.1 [w/ .net 3.5 installed]. (I've been outta the flashing loop for a while and re-flashed back to the stock ROM b/c I needed some stability in the builds) Any good recs on a more recent Verizon Touch Pro rom? [i know it's "ancient"].

That is VERY odd behavior. I have a 6.5.x ROM on Sprint. Its the only device I have so I'm not sure about 6.1. The behavior SHOULD be the same I would assume. Once I figure out the Null Ref problem, I'll look more into this.
