Does anyone know of some application that would make it so when you get an SMS from a contact it will display a picture associated with the contact on the screen as a sort of notification?
I had this function on my old SE k800 and I always thought it looked so pretty when receiving text messages. It had support for both regular jpgs and animated gifs. Also on my N95 there was an application who did that fullscreen (although it was quite buggy).
So there's nothing at all that can do this?
If you using the WM6.5....SMS in the Titanium panel will show the message with a contact picture...
SmileySMS does the job!

Hi guys,
I have a question about the text messages (SMS). When you receive an SMS, it will show you the date when the SMS was received but it DOES NOT show you what time the SMS was received. Is there ANY way to turn this on?
So besides the date, I also want to know on what time I receive my SMS messages.

It shows me the date AND the time on mine, I don't know why it doesn't on your device.
Where does it show the time then? All I see is:
- Name
- Text itself
- Date
- Size of message in Kb
Perhaps my version on WM6 is a bit messed up. You prolly have to Official WM6?
On the list view the time is not displayed, but when you open the individual messages it is.
(Official WM6 ROM)
noticed the side bar? it has extra space going up, when you push the dpad upward it shows the details. maybe they thought it would save some space, because no everybody wants to see the full detail. But I agree with you, its nice to see the date and time, so just scroll upward and you'll see it.

Hi there,i'm looking for a solution about an sms bug i have noticed on my P3600(udk 3.0 ITA WM6 FE)
When i receive an sms and i go to my sms list i see that the system orders them according the time/date of the sender and not the time/date of my p3600.
That means that if i receive an sms now from my girlfriend who lives in Australia(8hours time difference from Italy where i live)and then i receive other sms from my contacts from Italy, the list shows first the "australian" sms and then the "italian" ones!
Is there any solution to fix this bug or it's just that my P3600 gives priority to my girlfriend's sms???
Another issue: does somebody knows who to see the photo of the contact when you receive a sms?
In palm os there is a new app called picturesms but I don't know an app with this functionality for wm.

If the person who sends you a sms is in your contact list and if you have assigned a photo to that contact, when you open that sms, you should see his photo. It works automatically on my device, no more app needed.

When your using outlook, you assign pictures for every contact, when you sync it to your pocketpc it automatically shows the pictures, no extra software needed, saves a lot of space. of course you need to open the sms in order for you to see the picture, same goes with email etc.
but if you really want a 3rd party software try googling photo contacts.
Hi,
I'm looking for a rom which is stable and works seemlessly and quickly with the following features
Ability to make and receive phone calls using both the touch screen and the hard keys
Ability to use internet without connection keep on dropping.
Ability to have lock with a pin
Weather
Ability to send MMS and SMS with threaded messages showing - with a high message limit before slowing down e.g. 5k messages
Ability to have multiple email accounts each with 30 day history whereby email checking doesn't take over a minute when there are no new messages.
Ability to have led indicator only showing for text messages and voicemails and missed calls but not to show when a new email arrives
Ability to have multiple applications open at once
Weather and mylocation which works and doesn't mess up your calendar times
Can someone recommend a rom that can do the above without issues?
Thanks a lot,
Chris
Ummm........ Iphone
At least you aren't demanding.
Check through the ROMs for yourself...both here and HTCPedia.

Presumably you think AthineOS does all this. I'll give it a search.
I can view conversation threads with people in my Contact list, but what if I want to review an SMS message I've sent to someone who isn't in my Contacts? Or if I've forgotten who I sent a message to? There doesn't seem to be a 'Sent Messages' folder to browse?
See the "Text Messaging" icon in your tray (near the bottom), if I click on mine it shows all my texts.

Sorry, don't know what you mean. What app are you using?
I have no tray and no text messaging icon.
I am just using the native 'Text Messaging' App - It only shows INCOMING SMS messages.

In my native text messaging app, incoming texts are displayed in yellow bubbles, but outgoing ones are in grey bubbles in the same chat window. If the contact is not in my contacts list, then just the number appears instead of the name.
Hope that helps.

Yes, If I select an INCOMING text, then the conversation thread opens and I see the grey and yellow bubbles you have described, but that only works if I can find an INCOMING text from that particular contact.
When I open the Text Messaging App, I can only see a list of RECEIVED messages (no SENT MESSAGES), so I can't select a SENT MESSAGE. There is no option to view SENT messages.
Or put it another way, I can't see SENT messages to anyone who hasn't replied.
Try sending a new text message to a non-contact (someone who has never sent you a message). Then search for the message you have just sent? You can't find it.
Go to your apps drawer and click on "Messaging" app. From there select "Text Messages". This will open all the conversations you have had. I have several in there from people who are not in my contacts due to craigslist sales and wrong number texts.
Edit: Nevermind, I think I misunderstood you. I don't know any numbers to text that are not in my contacts that haven't already texted me so I can't check what you are saying.

Yes I can.
Top entry in the list of conversations in the text messaging app.
Also, for other contacts, I see a snippet of the most recent message in the conversation, not the most recent received message - so if I was the last person to say something, it shows the start of the message I sent.
No idea what's wrong with your handset to be honest...

OK you are right, sorry for the confusion.
It's just that there is no distinction between RECEIVED messages and SENT messages in this view (They are the same colour, font, background).
I guess I am used to my WM6 device where I had seperate folders (views) for Inbox and Sent.
What I'm asking is - is there any way I can view ALL and ONLY my SENT text messages? without seeing RECEIVED?

Not with the stock messaging app.
Maybe if you were to use a third-party app like Handcent but that's really just a guess on my part as I've never used it myself...
from market - go sms pro . free right now , it has inbox, sent, outbox and all that
I'm using haxsync right now and it works great when seeing them in the mms threads. However, when i'm making a phone call the pictures are way too fuzzy. Is there any way of just disabling the contact pictures for when you make a phone call and have the stock grey background?
Ive searched hundreds of posts but all the answers are the same. If you are annoyed by getting multi picture or pictures with words from iPhone users coming through as a slideshow or video, the simply install Handcent SMS and the problem magically goes away. We'll I've had Handcent for years and I still have the same problem. I've got it installed and it's set as the default as far as I can tell, I still get slideshows from my iPhone friends when the send multi picture mms messages. Can someone please tell me exactly how to make Handcent show these as single pictures where I can zoom in?
Affects me as well

This is also a problem for me. It's affected all of my Android devices.
It seems that when I receive an MMS from any other user (not just iPhone users) it will be displayed as a slide show instead of an image if the message was sent along with text. This happens even if the attachment is only one image.
It is also triggered if the sender's message has two or more images (even if no text).
I can't begin to describe how annoying this is. From internet searches this has been an issue since at least 2010.
