Emoticions in SMS - Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development

I did a search and couldn't find any info about this.
Is their any way to have emoticons in sms texts show up as more than the way they're spelled. I mean as a small picture or something instead of just seeing the letters/symbols that make it.

just use a program called "smiley SMS". I don't have a link but google and you will find.

Big thanks, I just installed it and works great!

HTC Homeplug MMS Icon

Hi all. Does anyone know how (or if it is even possible) to change what application runs when you click the MMS messages icon on the "House" tab of the HTC Homeplug? (Not talking about the App Launcher tab) Maybe through Reg Edit? I never use MMS messages so it would be cool if I could make the icon run some other application. As usual, tried searching through Google.
Thank you

I've installed the Palm threaded messager thats here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308881&highlight=palm+messaging That puts e-mails in the first icon and SMS in the second icon.
Any way to customize it more so that I can have something other than e-mail in the first icon and SMS in the second one?

Nice theme - what is it? Is it a proper theme or a collection of individual hacks?

I like this. But do you need to let VITO SMS-CHAT running in the background for this new sms popup to be displayed? Is there a way to make this the default Windows Mobile SMS App?

The threaded sms reader that comes with PocketCM Contact is the best looking that i've seen (once you install the Dark Diamond II - 0.3 skin). And it's free!

I use this app, and you don't need to open it for the notification to come up. Just install it and turn off your normal SMS alerts, and it's your default. It's a really, really great program for threaded SMS. It even lets you export all chats into a word file. I just wish they'd come up with some better skins.

Thanks! The TF3D theme is from Lagunadub which is a proper theme. The task bar and bottom bar are Wisbar Advance 3 and I'm using a compilation of a couple different skinners work for that look. I can't take credit for any of it other than customizing it to my likings.

Agreed. What I originally started looking for was a program that had a nicer notification than that of the stock windows notification. I really liked how Vito SMS Chat looked and I've been very happy with it!
now aint this sad, i'd use vito smschat for all features NOW except well.. the threaded sms

I've installed SMS-Chat on a LG Incite and it freezes when trying to use, but if my phone is connected to the computer it works fine. Also, how do you turn off normal SMS alerts. Please help.
For me, the default TF3D threaded sms is just fine.... Can't be bothered to pay for a sms application ffs...!!!

This is in most of the ROMs from here.

However, it does not install on NRG's rom Maxmanila 23554? but I think that the idea is good and it needs some tweaking (other graphic files perhaps) to get it installed on other roms.

Go to your call log and press menu > view by.
I know it can get messy sometimes with text messages showing up in the log.
For some strange reason you can't filter it do all calls though.
I tried looking for a better app than stock phone, couldn't find one that hasn't irritating bugs/features... it would be really great if grouping was applied in call log...
There is an alternate dialer called easy dial pro from ISOL which looks like it can do the job, but it force closes on my phone when I start it. Give that a try.

GO SMS Issue

Anyone else's GO SMS not showing the sender's name for text messages, just the #? No issues until ICS.
To add to that ive got a gosms notification in my top bar to say ive got a new message. I can see the first few words of the message but when i click on it i cant see the text (i just get the text box to reply) and it doesnt exist in the stock sms app either.
I have this problem as well, also custom themes do not work at all. I've abandoned gosms for handcent for now at least. It's too bad the ICS theme for gosms looks so great too!
i have this aswell, i thought it was just me. Hopefully it will be updated soon.
Yeah - I had the same problem. I've switched to stock Messaging app and SMS Popup out of necessity, but now that I know Handcent works I might try that.
Newbie question, but what advantages do 3rd party SMS apps over the stock app.

Different themes, pop-up notifications with the ability to reply, just far more control in general.

Think iPhone vs. Android in terms of the amount of control one has.

The big feature is SMS pop up - it's super nice. SMS pop up doesn't remove the text from the notification bar, but it does mark it read, which is annoying. Handcent works alright.

Hi,
Same issue here (French, 4.0.1).
Also sometimes having unkown failure trying to send mail, after closing Go contacts...
An update may come soon...

GO SMS
Developer is working on update for GO SMS to be compatible with ICS - I have found Chomp to work the best in the mean time
GO SMS for ICS released this morning! Fixed...kind of.
Some of the messages have been linked to the contact, but not all. Can't see the pattern either. Again, only occurs within the app. Quick Reply is fine.
Edit: Just did a clear data. Will see what happens.
Edit: Just received a few SMS. Some are finding the name, some arent'. No pattern that I can see.

[Q] Any good way to send ALL my contact info through sms?

Is there any good app out there for sending my business card info, or just sending my contact info to someone rather than having to type it all out. I am on the go alot and I plug peoples numbers in and would love to be able to just shoot them over my selected contact info through like SMS. But doesn't seem to be anything out there to do that. I found one app, but only info it will send is Name - Number - Email. I want something that will send all the info in the contact info of my phone, including my website etc... The app I found which is very limited and I don't like is called "Share Contacts Via SMS"
Thanks
bump it up
I use Handcent for many features including this one. You can attach a contact as a vCard or plain text, and you get a checkbox next to each item to include (numbers, emails, addresses, photo). Can't believe this isn't in the stock app!
If you do this a lot and the problem is just re-typing it, you can create and save a template with this info. In the stock SMS app, go to Menu->Settings->Templates. The icon in the upper right will let you create and save a template. Then when you are in the conversation/new message screen, Menu->Insert Template, pick the one you made.
But I would also recommend checking out handcent. I don't use this feature but it's a great app that packs a lot of good stuff.

This is in the stock Messaging app? If so, I don't see anything regarding templates.
Yeah, I don't see this template option in the stock messaging app. And I don't want to use handcent. Any other suggestions

Oh? I have a themed version of the stock app installed, though I stopped using it a while ago myself in favor of handcent. Perhaps the capability was added in by the person who themed it. I know his version of the dialer adds t9 dialing, but there's no note of added functionality on the mms link.
If you like or just don't mind the theme, the one I have is here.
