Does anybody know of a program around like SMS Delivery Fix (http://www.saman-cz.com/ppc/drfovrw.html) that would show me the name of the person sended the txt message to (getting the info out of your contacts) that works under windows mobile 6 smartphone edition (or how it is called, the one that just got out from HTC for this device). It is really annoying to only see a number instead of the name.
Start--->Accessories--->Sim Manager
Menu-->Select All
Menu-->Save to Contacts
Now, go into Start--->Settings--->Call Options and uncheck show SIM contacts.
Your problem should now be solved
I doesn't show any contacts there, all my contacts are already in my "normal" contacts. But as soon as you get a message saying your txtmessage has been delivered it gives you a cellphone number instead of the name.
When? You mean in your sent folder?

when you have the delivery reports on it you get a message from system administrator " The message you sent to <telephonenumber> has been deliverd"
With the program linked in my first post you can change that, so that it actually looks in your contacts which contact belongs to that number and shows that name. Only problem is that program is for windows mobile ppc, instead of smartphone, so I'm looking for something similar.

Ahh, ok. I never use delivery reports since I personally find them annoying (the other person's phone essentially texts you back to say they got it and usually not automatically)

To this date I can not understand why Microsoft Overlooked this issue and did not fix it!!
Windows mobile can not accept more than one mobile number. I have to accept the fact that I store one person name in contact twice so I will have his two mobile number contacts.
The problem if it is fixed in the Windows mobile contact with a patch, it is still a dilemma in MS outlook!! It would not sync properly
Any trick or solution that can help to store two mobile numbers under one contact name? Is there is any solution to fix this in outlook too?
Best Regards
Another Workaround
Hi hm1b,
I faced the same issue, but used a "better" (in my opinion) workaround: I managed the 2nd mobile number as "Other", "Car" or "Home2".
This allows me to have only 1 contact, and I didn't find any issue (I can still use the number for SMS for example).
Hope it helps.
PS: this question has nothing to do with Blackstone and should have been posted in a general thread
Dear Oumpahpah,
thank you for replying. Will I have a HD phone and did not know where to ask this question. It is a genral question that hope some day to find a fixed answer.
I did use the field of home and work but it did not let me send SMS from there!! when you click on contact it will show only the mobile to send SMS.
another thing some of my friend have Iphoe and keep on upsetting me in regards to this issue. So i thought I might have final soultion with a patch for both [windos mobile and MS outlook]
it might as well be a matter of which field you use for a second mobile number, like, you actually cannot send a sms to a home phone..

In fact you can send an SMS to any number (including home phone):
When typing the SMS if you choose to add a recipient you can choose from all the selected contact numbers.
But in the contact detail if you choose "send SMS" it selects the mobile phone by default.
Let face it, the WM contact app. is really out dated have one mobile phone field and you cannot change the field label. Even a simple Nokia S40 phone can do it.
Got my Touch Pro 2 from MObile Phones Direct (in UK) last week Love it so far. But maybe it's meant to happen but when I send an SMS a copy appears in my Inbox with message prefixed by Me:. Wht's this al about then??
Its called "Threaded SMS" and shows your texts as a conversation.
I like it but I know some people don't.
There are ways to turn it off mentioned all over the boards.
i love it
because you can clearly see the history of the last messages and also it harder to get the wrong person you want to write a msg to ..
And how can i delete one message from thread?
thanks...
You can't, that's the special "Don't cheat on your wife"-option HTC has built in ...
No, kidding. When TF3D enabled click on the sms-icon in the bottom bar.
Click on the latest SMS recieved from the person.
You get a threaded SMS with at the bottom a bar in which you can see emails from that person, call history, etc.
Click Menu > Delete
Select the messages to be deleted
Click done
Yesss.
I didnt think that i can use the delete menu item to delete a message...
So a thought it is delete the entire thread.
Thank you!
Anyone else have problems with text messaging?
Scenario: I receive a text message, the notification pops up on screen. I have my phone handy, so i hit the reply button.
The phone takes me to Windows Mobile text messaging. I send my text message reply. If the same person texts me back, it is not registered as being read.
So i exit the screen back to the TouchFlo 3d menu. I have a new text message (that i have already seen and read)
So i go to the windows mobile text system to read it...again.
NOW, lets say i have a full conversation with someone. 30 messages later, I still have 30 unread messages, every time i open the windows mobile text messanger, it removes ONE new message, not all.
So, i never get to use the TouchFlo 3d messenger, which is half decent, and the WM6.1 text messenger is stupid.
Does anyone know of a setting, or a third party text program that will over ride this crap, or am i just hoping this all works out.
Am i really the only one who has text messaging difficulties?

this is a known issue my friend...
download SafeInBoxExtender... search the main forum...
it will let you "mark all messages as read" ..
it will cure your problem right up..
*nods* i have it already, it doesnt exactly "cure" the problem, UGH!
We shouldnt have to come up with stupid fixes for stuff microsoft should already have fixed.
Is 6.5 slated to fix some of this garbage?
I have another problem
i cant use the TF messaging
allot of times it tells me message not sent
and if not there is no delivery report
i found out the there is a TF delivery report i must check 1st
but its not fixed !!!
when i go out of the message it becoms unchecked !!
So at the end i used the Win messaging with no problems there
but i wish i can just click the incoming message and reply right away
hmm how odd, i don't have either of those issues.
Which version of the TP2 are you guys using?

Hi, my company has just changed our phones from G1's to Omnia 7's. I had a handy app on the G1 that I used to forward my SMS's to my personal phone (save carrying both around with me out of office hours). Is there anything available to do this on the Windows mobile 7 omnia at all ? Many thanks
I know that with NoDo you can press and hold on the text you got and it will give you an option to forward it. I don't remember that being there in 7004.
Sent from my Samsung Focus using Board Express

It was there before NoDo... I know cause I dont have NoDo yet and the forward option is indeed there.
Problem is that the OP probably wants an automated process, instead of having to press all SMS's, and for that I don't think there is an application yet.
Hi guys, many thanks for your replies, as Avandor has suggested, I really need this to be an automated process as the phone will probably be at home, so I need it to push it automatically, if possble.
It's been nearly a year now... has any SMS auto-forwarding app popped up yet?
I'm contemplating getting a WP7 phone but need this feature.
Thanks

Mmm, this is all I find:
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/8427cf9a-070a-4453-8024-56d21d81933e
It just looks like an app that sends pre-written SMSes to specific numbers.
I'm looking for something like this:

It's a security issue / consider Google voice instead

This is not possible in WIndows Phone 7.
Under Windows Mobile 6.5 you could write handlers to intercept text messages as they arrive and do various things, such as send it to an email address using an email account.
But, it would not immiately send. It would go to your outbox and only actually send when you synced.
It's kind of a security issue to allow any application to directly send SMS or make calls without any confirmation. I say kind of because any dev could have called a webservice or done an HTTP post to a site instead. But, imagine a malicious devloper making an app that text messages all of your contacts or random people without your knowledge or confirmation with each send. If they allowed the app you want, they would not be able to stop the malicious app.
You may want to consider Google Voice, since users can SMS the google voice number and it will forward to the numbers or email addresses that you wnat to recieve it on. Then you can reply from any device running a Google Voice app.
Hello,
I'm using my desire HD for quite some time now, but i've never had this problem before. When i'm opening the contacts app (if i can call it that way) and then press on the picture of someone and press call or send text message it uses the wrong number and it never did this wrong before does anyone know how to change this?
Thanks in advance!

The number that it puts do you recognize it? Can it be the number of search of the contact? Or is it a random number?
Have you you checked your contacts list in your google account?
Entering from to PC into gmail account
Do click in the paragraph "contacts" above at the left of the mail page

if you´ve checked your google account &
are you sure about you don´t have various numbers in one contact i don´t know what´s the problem
Check on the gmail website and double check a few of the numbers.....make sure there aren't duplicates from a bad sync (i.e. same numbers appearing under home and mobile for instance)
If it all looks fine, I would wipe and let it re-sync.....
I have worked with contact sync apps in an enterprise environment and always found them to be "a bit dodgy" at best.

mmm... you are perfectly understandable (since the first post) AND I´M GETTING THAT YOU ARE SAYING...but i sent to you 3 possible things that can provoke your problem... if anything works THEN I DO NOT KNOW THAT IT CAN GO BADLY...
Have you tried going on the contact details page, holding down on the number you want to text or call, then choose Set as primary number?
