Just got the HTC touch pro 6850 from US cellular last week (had a HTC 6800 before). This new phone is great and I like the Touchflo3D screen, but I want to have the alert messages on the bottom of the screen like the 'classic' screen has (they would stay on the softkeys on the bottom until you dealt with them). The ones where I have to dismiss them before it goes away. Is there a 3rd party app that will do this? I've loaded Diamond TF3D Config, Diamond Tweak and Fabliv Action Screen 9 and none of these seem to have an open to get the alerts back.
Also is there an issue with this phone missing calls? I seem to get a lot of voicemails but the phone never rang.
Thanks for you help
i am afraid that in touchflo3d you wont get sms alerts on screen. For a that you can install s2u2 latest edition . it has a wonderful display of sms on screen even of miss calls and reminders. If you havent insatalled S2U2 u r missing something great with Windows Mobile.

Thanks! This is definately a keeper.
Maybe I'm missing this but it only seems to let me see the previews of the tasks and calander reminders when the screen is locked. If i click on the e-mail or SMS reminder icon it doesn't open a preview window. Is there a way to turn on previews for them?

You can edit the skin that you are using and take out the green / red buttons so the screen has no option to answer the call.
great thanks for the skinning option
Just noticed photocontacts takes 4% CPU power. And the SMS feature doesnt seem to work. But i wans thoose highres caller pictures...
I am using the HTC S730 and the Default HTC Home Plugin and like to know if there's a plugin out there that can display/show the whole sms/text message or at least part of it in Home Screen when it arrives? Thanks.
Update your phone to WM6.1, that shows a part of the text message without leaving the homescreen.
or you may try to install Manila2D (ported from ppc with all its issues and problems)
but in the messaging tab you could read the full sms text body (sliding from the newer to the older, with the limit of the last 99 sms received)
imho m2d for smartphnes is really fancy and stylish but with a lot of bugs
Thanks
Thanks all for the reply. But I found what I was looking for. It called SMS Bubbles. And it works great.
very good!
you are right SMSBubbles make the incoming sms view like on the ppc (with a popup on the bottom of the display with the text message)
Are anybody else experiencing a bug in the profiles, when you choose Vibrate calls vibrate, but text messages only vibrate when the phone is not in sleep mode. As soon as the screen turns off the only indicator is the green flashing light..
And another thing, under Advanced => Notifications there is a checkbox called "Display message on screen" under the event of New Text Message, what does this do?? I can't see any difference when I check it or leave it unchecked?
Thanks
It does look like there is an issue with notification for messages both text and email, I'm sure someone is working on a cab file as I write...
If you go to the Today settings and turn off TouchFlow 3D you will see if you have enabled the message for reciving text messages.
Tried this out today on mine and it worked fine. Vibrate profile active, in sleep mode, text recieved and the phone vibrated three times.
The second thing you mention about a txt msg means when you recieve a text it displays a note on the screen briefly saying who its from and a snippet of the message instead of just the icon at the top of the screen. I find it quite handy. You can do this for emails to.

Hmm strange can't get it working on mine..

When I have TouchFlo3D enabled I can't att elements to the today screen. In the setting for the Today screen there are a bunch of things/elements that you can add but they only work when TouchFlo3D is deisabled in the Today screen settings? Is that a bug or can't you customize the Today screen when using TouchFlo3D?
Hey all.
I just got a G1. I love it, its such a big step from a Touch.
But one thing I really need on it is for the screen to light up when I get a notification, more specifically an SMS. The vibration on the G1 isn't too great, so I leave it on my desk. And I hate having an audible sound to play (I'm picky, I know). When I got an SMS on my Touch the screen would illuminate, any way to emulate this on Android??
Hi, you could try downloading 'SMS Popup' from the market. In the notifications settings there should be an option to turn the screen on when a message is recieved. New texts will appear in their own window, but when you dismiss them they will still appear in the notifications tray.
Looks like that will do the job, thankyou!
Or handcent if you want more features/skins etc.
My Kaiser has a Shifu3 WM6.5 ROM.
In this ROM, with TouchFlo Today, the reminders pop up with a white window showing the appropriate text.
Either pressing Snooze or Delete, the reminder application closes itself by calling Today screen.
Even if I was working on other application (i.e. Facebook) at the moment of the reminder.
This is a problem, as I want to use a different Today (SP Home Shell). But if SPHomeShell is enabled, the reminder application calls, when closing, anyway TouchFlo today, that is disabled, so the phone stucks with a totally white today.
So i simply ask:
1) does it exist a way (registry?) to set TouchFlo reminder to close itself calling the "default Today" (or, better, by simply closing itself not calling any different application) instead of TouchFlo Today?
2) This reminder tool only shows "Snooze" or "Delete". The problem is that Snooze has a fixed time (I suppose 5'). Standard WM reminder has a snooze menu, that is much more useful. I'd like very much to find the way of using default WM reminder instead of this one....
Thanks
