i got wm6 black and once i open SMS up..
the soft key on the left handside is "delete" i wanted to chante to "new"
can someone tell me how to do that please?
thanks.
This is asked for in another thread as well, but not answered I'm afraid. Seems like it's hardcoded in tmail.exe, so there's no way to change it like a normal softkey or in the registry or something.
The delete button is bugging me as well...
I have been searching for this in the registry but i can't find it. I want to change this softkey to new as it used to be in WM5, as it easier to press the softkey then go through the menus while in the car.
If any of the gurus out there can help out on this one..........................
There is a work around with this, if you use the softkey changer and apply one of your soft keys in the today screen to New SMS it will take you directly to a new SMS message. I don't you will find the solution that you are looking for without alot of trial and error. This might help in the mean time.
As Video calling has been disabled in the new WM6 Roms i have used the Video calling button on the Uni as the 'new' key which does get me around but its still so annoying where i am so used to pressing this button when looking at other messages to create new messages and now when i press it it asks if i want to delete the txt.

Yes., it's annoying. But what is really amazing is the utter twat that came up with this change and the equally dumb twats that said "Good idea! Let's do it". Really.
hey mike thanks for posting that little shortcut.

Your Welome!
I agree that it's frustrating that they changed the key to delete. I personally delete very few messages, and if I do I delete a whole batch of them in one go, the new button is one which I use MUCH more than delete.
Anyway, I was wondering if you might be able to help me with another issue which I'm having. When I open a message (email or text) it jumps down to the bottom of the page. Has anyone else experienced this, or is it just me?

My guess is that this was a customer-driven change requested by some of the huger Windows Mobile customers.
I'm not sure what is your background, but I am a "corporate type" and I receive about 100-200 messages per day in my Activesync inbox. I usually reply to messages rather than writing new ones.
I use the Delete key MUCH more frequently than the New key so this is a welcome change for me. Most messages are FYIs or system notification messages, or long threads (and I can read just the last message in the thread and then toss all earlier messages).
Have you changed the size of your scroll bars? if so change them back to default (13) i think.

Here's another preformatted shortcut. I found the one attached by Mike in post #6 just opened my Inbox. It was easily modified using the link he provided, but for the lazy ones among us! This one opens a new (blank) SMS, tested on my Exec running Jwrightmcps Crossbow ROM Update 2.02.02 WWE.
Unzip the file, and copy it to wherever you want on your device.

This only start the messaging application and go into the SMS view.
It doesn't start a new SMS ; at least not with my Schap's ROM with SMS/MMS combined.
EDIT: Works with the new .lnk file ; Thanks !
Thank you Mike the link to the Modaco site was the solution I was looking for. I created that sms.lnk shortcut and then assigned it as a softbutton on my today screen, now with one click I have a blank SMS ready for sending. Works like a charm.

You got more than 15 friends???? LOL
I think that's just for favourites, i.e. most commonly used contacts - all people is unlimited. If you add more than 15 people to a 'quick access favourites' list, it kind of stops being quick access and defeats the objective.
Just my thoughts, but I guess the option to add more could never be a bad thing!

Hi,
I am looking to find a simple utility that would send a pre-defined Birthday / Anniversary sms to my contact based on the dates already available in Windows Mobile Contact information.
I have tried searching on this forum and on the net but to no luck. Does anyone know of any such software. The closest I could get was RJ SMS Scheduler but it requires us to feed in a schedule. I wish to find something that can look up the contact list and pick dates itself.
Thanks,
Umesh

Message taken! you could say I am lazy, unintentionally though, mostly due to lack of time. Intentionally, I would like not to miss a single event of the 400+ contacts I have on my phone list.
Can only imagine how glad they would be to hear from me on their special days and how happy I would be to know that I would never miss any good wishes for any of my good friends.

I checked this software but it is quite similar to so many others available on net. It requires us to set up a schedule to send the sms to particular contacts.
Instead I am suggesting the app could pick dates itself from the Window Mobile's Contact List and send sms from templates, we create and save in there. This way we do not have to add birthdates / anniversaries to Contact List and then set up another scheduled sms through a third party application for our purpose.
I hope I have managed to explain what I am looking for.
Thanks,
Umesh.
Ah, I see what you're asking for now. I don't know of anything that can do that, but it would be a good idea!
Any thoughts from anyone else to share knowledge of such an application ?
Thanks.
Not that easy
I'm looking for such application since a long time, but no luck. The application should also consider the following requirements:
MUST HAVE:
- choose the correct phone number, cuz the text messages should be sent only if a mobile number is available for the specific contact;
NICE TO HAVE:
- built the text message with a variable string where automatically should put the name of the contact;
- should have the possiblity of exclude some contacts from the auto-SMS in order to avoid sending the pre-configured SMS to your girlfriend for example
Will see if someone can manage it in the future.
P.S.: I have more that 400 birthday to remember
Ciao!

Thanks Mohit for putting this together. I've set it on my system 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.
Thanks,
Umesh.

Hi Umesh,
Thanks,
well no need to keep it running as i am using notification que to run it at the designated time. like an alarm. so u can just exit after setting up every thing from options->save n exit
and about updating new contact u just need to open the app and click options-> "add contacts bday", it will automatically fetch the new one and update it. also it will remember the last message u had set up.
One feature that I missed, coming from HTC phones, to Samsung, was the ability to block callers in Contacts.
You must be rooted. Navigate to /system/csc, and select feature.xml.
Scroll to the "Contacts" section, and change this line from this:
<CscFeature_Contact_DisableMenuAddToRejectList>true</CscFeature_Contact_DisableMenuAddToRejectList>
to this:
<CscFeature_Contact_DisableMenuAddToRejectList>false</CscFeature_Contact_DisableMenuAddToRejectList>
Save, exit,
Make sure permissions are set to: rw-r--r--,
and reboot.
In Contacts, select a contact, press menu. "Add to reject list" should now be an option.
has anyone played with blocking mode. (menu.settings.blocking mode)a bit more of a pita to set up but has pretty neat additional features.

GREAT FIND. Seriously, I also came from HTC and was blown away to find that this very simple feature of send to voice mail wasn't available. I followed your method only to find out that Josh already changed it in the ROM. I never thought to check for the option cause you were the first to mention the fix that I have heard yet to date. So thanks for looking out and finding this. If you know of any other features that can be modified with this method par post them up. I will shoot you some thanks when my counter re-sets for the day.
Thanks for the feedback. Im slowly going through all of the disabled settings, as I find time. I'm still new at this, so the process is kind of slow. But, yeah, I agree, some of the things I took for granted with HTC, are completely missing, or disabled with the Note.

I haven't used blocking mode yet, but my wife uses it all the time, and swears by it.

Sure it was Sprint and not Samsung? Maybe Samsung did it in order to shine light on their Block Mode?
Cause My Evo was obviously a Sprint phone and had this option so did my Palm Pre

Good point. The reason I blamed Sprint, is because the setting was disabled in CSC. I just assumed that stood for 'Carrier Specific Customization'. When the first version of the LK8 leak first dropped, the rom contained other carriers csc folders. I think I remembered the option enabled through other carriers, but I may be remembering wrong.
OP, are you the guy who I just thanked for teaching me how to disable shutter sound? If so, you are on fire man!
If not, then THANK YOU for being the 2nd really smart guy who helped me today! This worked perfectly!
I hit your thanks button too, both threads (if both are yours)
EDIT: I just noticed that since I replied to both threads, that put them next to each other. Mystery solved. You are the same.
Thanks AGAIN

Hello, I seem to have uncovered a new feature where I get an email every time I am quoted in a thread. I cannot find a setting in control panel to stop these emails. I have never experienced this feature on other boards or forums.

In your control panel options under the quick links tab at top of the page. There will be an option on the left side called "mention system". Within that there should be a setting to disable emails for quotes. I think clicking on the link below should take you to your settings

The "Control Panel" link is in the top right of the forums, next to where your username is, where it says how many new private messages you have, etc. It's on the forum website, not sure about the app or mobile site.
oh it's down on the bottom. I did not see that. Thank you
