sms doesn't automatically add "To:"

It used to be when I started typing a name in the "To:" section of a new SMS message, it would bring up a list of name that matched what I was typing (similar to the Smart Dialer for the Phone). How do I get my SMS to do this? am I missing a setting, or an add-on?

Re: sms doesn't automatically add "To:"

You def. need to give more info as I'm not sure what you're asking for exactly...

Are you saying Pocket Outlook (the default WM Email and SMS app) is unable to show you the autocompletion list or some third party app is giving you this trouble?

yes, pocket Outlook does not have the auto-complete feature it used to when typing a name in the "to" section.

Re: sms doesn't automatically add "To:"

I know what you are talking about. When you are using the default SMS in 6.1 and you are typing a persons name in the To: line is will pull the names from the address book and match the name in an auto-complete style. It is a nice feature as I used it all the time but IDK how you managed to loose it. Sorry.

Exactly! I have WM6.1, maybe it's a setting?

Re: sms doesn't automatically add "To:"

I think I found the solution, however, I don't have this setting in my registry.

To disable suggestions, change the value to 0..

Re: sms doesn't automatically add "To:"

Well you can always add the reg key (DWORD) but I also have 6.1 and use the default SMS app.

It does say "edit/create the following DWORD"

Re: sms doesn't automatically add "To:"

Okay, I created a new key "RecipientAutoComplete" and added a new DWord "MaxSuggestions" with a value of "4", and enabled word completion, but it only gives me 1 suggestion at the very bottom of the screen - and only after I press the space key (I changed the setting for word completion for 1 letter, and it still only suggests after a space).

Any suggesions?

Re: sms doesn't automatically add "To:"

I have the same issue but only when using the hard key qwerty, when I use the SIP qwerty I get the suggested contacts pop up to pick from.
