MMS subject field character limit increase?

Hello all,
I hoping some of you Windows Mobile 6.1 gurus can help me resolve a pesky issue that I have with MMS messages. I'm hoping there is a regedit or some other fix for this issue.
First of all, I'm running Kavana's 6.1 ROM and loving it. So big thanks to Kavana and all other contributors to this ROM.
The problem: When sending an MMS (picture) message, I am being limited to 40 characters maximum in the subject field. Why is this a problem? My #1 use of MMS messages is to send photos to TwitPic. It's a service that allows you to post pictures online from your phone, which also show up in your Twitter stream. A lot of the time, 40 characters just isn't enough to give a full description of the picture that I am posting (which is scraped from the subject field).
Does anyone know how to increase this 40 character limit in the MMS subject field? If so, please share! Any advice, tips, suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated! THANK YOU!

Use the READ feature, it works wonders too.
I am well aware of how to increase the MMS message size limit. This has no effect on the maximum character limitation of the SUBJECT field inside MMS messages. It is still stuck at 40 characters max, even though I can send MMS messages up to 300K in size.

oooooooohhhhh got shut down for a thread trying to tell someone to search lol..
Just accidentally googled to this - very old - thread ... but beeing very clever - the reason is in MMS design itself - phone is notified about incoming MMS by special binary push SMS, which tells the phone to download the MMS from MMSC. This binary SMS contains the subject just to inform the receiver about MMS details before downoading MMS itself. 40 chars is the limitation of this binary SMS ...

Looking for a way to make incoming sms popup on screen at arrival

Hi guys,
I had an app on my blackstone some time ago that made an incoming sms messages popup at the bottom of the screen in a small window without me having to start the message app. I did a hard reset my phone today and are desperate to get this app back. I have searched this forum but I can't find the app anymore. Could someone please help me.
Thanks!
start->settings->sound & notifications->notifications->Event (select Messaging: New text message)->tick "Display message on screen"->click OK
Thanks a lot! Thats exactly what I was looking for.

no problem! i won't deduct any points for NOT knowing some pretty basic stuff (like displaying SMS on screen).!!! just kidding!! have a great day/evening!
don't know if it's ROM related or not, but when I was using Diamond, I could reply or delete sms that popped out. But now, I can only hide them. What's up with this?

txt (sms) messages not sorted properly?

Hey guys,
I've got an annoying problem with my touch pro 2. For some reason, text messages in the sent folder are not sorted properly. For example, if i choose to sort them by "from" option (which is supposed to sort messages by contacts' names), all messages get jumbled up and i see several texts from contact X, then a few texts from contact Y, then again a few messages from contact X, then Y, and so on.
I also noticed that when i search for a keyword in my sent folder by typing that word, it doesn't find all the matches, but it only finds some of them.
One more thing is that i tried this with the sent folder of a new touch pro (Fuze), and i got the same problems! So i guess its not a problem with my device....but anyhow i am using the latest official HTC rom.
I just wanted to mention once more that this is a problem with the sent folder only, inbox folder works flawlessly.
I really appreciate it if you guys can perform the same steps and see if you have similar issues...or if you might know or can think of a possible solution for this sorting problem, i appreciate it for sharing it with me
PS: I've posted a similar thread in the Fuze section as well (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728299).
has anybody tried sorting messages by "From" to see if it works?.....
Hmm, haven't tried it (not that easy on the new HTC messaging client), but in the Sent Items folder, the From field would be your own name... for all messages. It probably uses time/date as a second sorting criterion.

thx for replying but what do you mean by this?
basically all i wanna do is to create a backup file for messages of individual contacts....so i have to sort them somehow and put specific messages (from each contact) together in one folder...
so do you know of a prog that does this for me so that i dont have to do it manually?
thx alot dude

[Q] Too many possible recipients for SMS/MMS: how to limit ?

Dear all,
After several readings and searches in this forum, it seems I was not able to find the answer to this probably very simple (pure newbie's) question...
The "similar threads" found just with the title I wrote are not pertinent here.
I first apologize for my very bad Engish... I hope it will not prevent you to undertand the meaning of my question.
Here is my configuration: LG G3 D855, 32Go, Android 5.0, software version V20h-EUR-XX
I come from an excellet Galaxy S4 under kitkat 4.4.2 (unfortunately, strange repetitive crashes led me to change and let the S4 to Samsung guarantee).
Here is the problem:
when I want to send a SMS/MMS to one of my contacts, I do not need to see the FAX number, the email, the inhouse phone... I just have to get the mobile phone number
Even if I defined the default phone number for my contacts, the soft always propose me these dummy (useless) propositions for SMS/MMS.
The consequence is that in my favorite list of contacts, there are just 6 contacts. I expected to get 6 possible phone numbers (this was the cas with my S4).
Unfortunately, I get 13 possible contacts (including FAX, email, home phone, etc...).
With such way of working, total of 63 contatcs are transformet in 173 possible "dummy contacts" and this is very difficult/slow to find out the only one right one
If you have an idea to help me to solve this "small" problem, I would be very indebted to you
And of course, all my appologies if I missed the answer somewhere....
The stock sms app is pretty bad. Try textra, 8sms or evolvesms.
Thanks a lot se1988
I will try to see iwith your diffrerent suggestions. Once more, thank you for your attention
