No, there isn't a fix for the date if you're using Palm's threaded SMS. If you switch to allow Windows Mobile to handle the threaded SMS it will appear correctly.

Another problem I've had with my phone for a while now and am not sure of the cause is that the highlight bar on the today screen will disappear when waking up and i hear the clicking noise when pressing the down arrow but none of the field are being highlighted, i would be forced to use the touch screen if i want to enter a program on the today screen menu and then when going back to the today screen it would reappear. i have spb mobile shell, spb plus and contacts pro installed but not sure if they are related to the problem. dannzeman you seem very knowledgeable on the 800w and i'm hoping you might have crossed this problem on the forums before. is it a bug with the treo itself and i'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem as well, thanks in advance!

Just to answer my own question earlier for anyone else having trouble with the date appearing incorrect in there sms timestamps, i created tweeked an entry that will resolve this problem and will allow you to maintain the date over time on the taskbar as well keep the timestamps in there correct format. Using the same registry location and procedure mentioned earlier in this post HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides Create a String value Name = SSDte but instead use Value = M/dd/y ' ' two spaces between the y and The last ' ' to push the date to the right to allow the "OK" not disturb or clash w/ the date. I'm not sure if this will conflict with any other programs for the 800w but i hope this will help anyone else like myself which had the same problem and to dannzeman keep up the good work helping the wm community.

Heya, love the tweaks. Was wondering though if there is any way to increase the volume of the ringer when you receive a SMS message. The normal call incoming ringer is loud enough, but I notice, with my phone at least, the sound for texts is significantly lower.

You're welcome. I'm not sure if there is or not. I haven't been keeping up with all the development for the 800w lately but one good solution is to use TreoAlerts and set it up to repeat the sound notification and the vibration. You can set the periods for anywhere from every second to minutes between intervals. Of course, if you leave phone unattended for any length of time and you get a SMS it could kill your battery.

Ah that is a shame, the low volume is going to be a deal breaker for me then. I had just gotten over the battery issue too but problems just seem to come up as one is solved. Back to my 700wx til something without all these un-addressed issues comes out.
