Palm Threaded SMS on WM6

I don't have an issue with the soft keyboard hiding when I slid out the keyborad. That works just like it should.

The issues are more of the way the Palm Threaded App works.

If you slid out the keyboard (landscape mode) on my 6700 atleast, it hides the last message sent (so when I am typing a reply, I can't see the last message that was sent to me). I have to pull the slider on the side down so I can see the last message (the one I would be replying to).

Also, with the soft keyboard, when you open it up, it does not shrink the threaded app down to provide room to see both the keyboard and the app message screen (where you are typing in the reply/new message).

As stated before, these are probably the way the program is made (since the palm devices do not have soft keyboard or slide out keybords).

I totally understand what your getting.

"If you slid out the keyboard (landscape mode) on my 6700 atleast, it hides the last message sent (so when I am typing a reply, I can't see the last message that was sent to me). I have to pull the slider on the side down so I can see the last message (the one I would be replying to)."

That bugged the hell out of me when I first started using the app. But as time went on its not such a big deal. All the pro's out weighed the con's when it came down to having to scroll down a little to read the last message received.

If there was a fix I would be all over it thought.

There is an easy fix. Just simply read the message before you slide out the keyboard. I mean, instinctively, I would think you'd have to read it before, so you'll know if you even need to respond to it in the first place.

To all those who sent me a PM in the last 2.5 months, they will be replied to by morning. Guess I didnt have email notifications turned on for this forum and just been swamped.

[redz1234]

LoL. Thats funny Takmsdsm. I could imagine how many messages you had.

I am having an issue with this app. I have tried using it twice on this phone. Once when I first got it and then right after a hard reset after upgrading to the newest Official Rom.

My problem is that I don't recieve all my texts. I see that I recieved a new text because my text icon says I have a new one. However when I click my sms soft key there is NO new text.. In addition, The new text notification resets itself to zero.

Where are my new texts? some I can see and some don't comed through.

Very frustrating. I love the app, but not sure about the viability of missing text messages.

dp,
Sounds to me like your soft key is still assigned to the old sms app. You need to re-assign it to the threader's executable, which for me is \windows\messaging.exe.
Good luck.

Is the a size limit on the PalmMsgV001 file. my app reuns great then when the file gets around 4.5M is craps out. Any ideas?

[datapusher]

I don't think so. The softkey goes right to the treaded sms app. The old sms has been replaced with the new threaded app.Last time I uninstalled it everything worked fine. However, it would be great if I was able to use it.
