two quick questions
 

First of all, for slide to unlock, it goes to the slide to unlock page like 5 seconds after unlocking it, and I can't figure out how to make it last longer? I changed the delay thing (the last option on the settings) to like 4000 ms, but it didn't do anything?

secondly, for texting, the texting space letters are so big, and I can't see what i am typing at all, how do a fix this?

i have groove's rom

anyone?

and is there a really good IM client that is free and supports googletalk and AIM?

Re: two quick questions
 

change the delay in s2u2 to 0, that way it starts as soon as the backlight turns off.

the texting... go to start>settings>system>screen>text size and move it to the left

Re: two quick questions
 

For texting, inside the message, if you circle around your scroll wheel, the text will get bigger and smaller.

Re: two quick questions
 

for the s2u2 i changed it to off on the last 2 settings, and the highest, and it still comes up within 5 seconds of me not touching the phone, I would like to have it at least like when the screen goes dim, and not within 5 seconds.

Is there another way to fix this? Or maybe I am changing the wrong setting?

Re: two quick questions
 

ah ok i just changed the backlight setting to 30 seconds which fixed it, and for the texting, what changed the font, but is there anyway to see less of your threaded (while you are typing) and more of what you are writing at that moment, or is that just an htc diamond flaw?

EDIT: ok so I got the text to pop up, its not the nicest version, but its fine i guess. How do you stop the music/ringer from coming on a new text message while I"m on the phone? I have it set to vibrate only in general.

ah that was perfect!! now the only thing I have a question for is when I'm on the phone talking, and I get a text, it makes a ringing thing, but the text does not pop up, I have to hit the "x", then go to the sms. How do I make it so it shows the text when it comes, and then I can do whatever while im talking?

summary:
How do I get rid of the music thing and make the text pop up and viewable when it comes in?

thank you all for your help so far! I reallyyy appreciate it, and I am very very new to windows mobile! :-)
