Does HTC have a program that does continues texting that show the complete conversation between two parties?
Not sure if HTC makes one but there are numerous programs that makes your text look like an instant messaging conversation. Google SMS threading. Theres a ton of progs.
Hello, I'm a newbie here. I have a ATT Tilt. I love the phone. However I hate the threaded messages. Whenever I receive a new text, the message contents are displayed on the screen. Some of my messages are private, and if some is using my phone or I am showing someone something, they can read my message. Is there anyway to remove this?
Please help
Thanks
threaded? - that's not threaded, threaded sms is where multiple sms messages are grouped together. What you are talking about is just a notification. Go into sound settings and turn off the "display message on screen" for New SMS messages
Thanks!
... so how exactly does threaded sms work
DELETED - double post
I guess the easiest comparison would be "gmail". Have you ever seen how gmail displays email messages? It basically threads all related messages together. Since text messages don't really keep a history of the current conversation, threaded text messages allow the user to see the history of the conversation all threaded together. Take a look a gmail account and it will make total sense. The Palm devices that run WM had a thread sms application but regular WM devices lilke the Tilt don't have it by default.
I was just thinking of that. So its similar to Gmail conversations... Is it based on Ajax technology as well?......Is it auto enabled, or do I have to enable it?
I downloaded a sms threaded text cab for my att tilt- my problem is that i can't send or receive MMS messages anymore. i've been looking for days to find a way around this because i love the threaded text, but i NEED my MMS capabilities. can you point me in the right direction or do i just need to abandon my threaded txt and revert back to the original to get my MMS back?
You could always upgrade to WM 6.1. It has threaded SMS built in.
this is true, but what about my mms...and now my mms wont work because i reverted to the original text format. its just saying that it is unable to send the picture message.
Im guessing you tried using Vito SMS chat. It was a nice app for threading your sms and loked nice too. But it takes over your messages folders. If it wasnt SMS chat you used then im guessing whatever program you installed did the same thing. I hated this cuz like you said, you then cant send or receive MMS. I looked for a long time to get around this. So now I am using Birdsoft's Xtreme Text which does not affect your message folders in any way. It simply just looks at your inbox and then just groups your messages by contacts so it looks like threaded sms. Then your phone handles MMS just like normal. So when you want to send or check sms just launch the Xtreme Text app. Then if you want to send or view MMS you just open your stock message folder.
So if your MMS is all messed up right now, I would do a hard reset to put everything back to normal, then reinstall all your favorite apps, then just install Xtreme Text to get that threaded sms feel you want.
Hey i was curious if there is any software that can be used for the kaiser. i used to have a treo which was nice because i could see the whole text messages. anything that would show a time stamp and previoyus comment

It's called threaded SMS and if you have WM6.1, you should have it. If not, there are several program out there that could do it for you.
I use this program since I only have WM6. http://www.birdsoft.biz/extremetext.htm
Its a stand alone app that basically just references your regular message inbox and then groups all your sms by contact name to give a threaded feel. It shows time stamps, contact pictures if they are assigned one, and even allows for hyperlinks to be clicked on if one is sent in your sms. What I really like about this app is that it does NOT whatsoever mess with your sms inbox settings or your mms settings or anything like some other threading apps. If you dont like it, no problem, just uninstall and nothing has changed from before.
Only thing is, that if you do recieve a MMS then the picture wont show, you will have to then launch your normal message inbox to view it.
Heres how it looks. Sorry if I went a little overboard but I looked so hard and tried almost every SMS threader out there and I like this one the best. I dont know about you, but I like to know how something really works before I buy/install it.

seems like it's buggy? i mean, go to your sent SMS folder. i have disabled threaded sms. Sort it as "From" and still the sms are not sorted according to From? whereas for Inbox, it is fine. it's the same for 6.1 and 6.5, any ideas?
i'm trying to sort by From and deleted all SMS that is not from a single contact.
