new sms command

[Guest viskas]

hallo everybody!

I quick question: in wm6 the path to a new sms is even longer than before, because you have to choose menu, messages, menu, new.

while in previous wm5, it was one step shorter, beacause you had the "new" key as left key. now there's "delete".

anyone knows any software or home plugin to send a new sms in one click?!?

[Guest creamhackered]

Really? Damn that's annoying...Paul might know as he has played around with the vox

Hold down '0' in the inbox to get a list of shortcuts... can't remember if there is one off the top of my head ;)

1. Go to your inbox and select "menu", "tools" and "options"

2. select "other"

3. uncheck "display account picker when opening Messaging"

Another WM6 improvement! ;)

Would be nice to change the Delete button in New tho...

Maybe some registry editing?

thank you, you make it shorter, but you still have to use several clicks to write a message.

on the most stupid samsung, rather than nokia, you a have a "single click" shortcut...

:-(

paul, thank you!

no shortcut in the list to "new". I wonder if any of the engineers who wrote the software ever used the phone...

they should hire a couple of teenagers to run usability tests!

If you open notepad on your PC and the paste the following line:

23#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS"

and then save it as "SMS.lnk" and copy it to your phone under \windows\start menu

you'll have the "old" SMS shortcut directly to your SMS inbox.

I know some users tweaked this line to go directly into a new sms, so if someone knows that specific line, it could work.

[Guest viskas]

thank you Rskillz, this tweak works, and as you said I get to the sms inbox.

anyone know how to launch a new sms instead?

thank you very much for patience and support!

Try this line in a shortcut:

20#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "" -body ""

[Guest viskas]

great! it works!

now... (last request, I swear...)

do you know how to bring this link to the first spot, so I find it immediately when I click "start"?!?

[Guest viskas]

ooops!

I found it! it's not difficoult to use the search option...

[Guest Terrapin]

Best way I've found to send an sms (without installing this patch) seems to be to do a normal contact search for who you want to send it to (as if you were going to call them) - then hit MENU and choose the send sms option. It'll open a new sms with the person you want to send it to already in the TO: field.

hi i didn't understand where to put the string... 20#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "" -body ""

Non ho nemmeno bene capito se serve per inviare direttamente un sms dall'home screen oppure no..io vorrei che sull'home screen al posto di contatti ci fosse "nuovo sms"..

Bye

I am sorry, I think that this is only good to create a shortcut to new sms.

I finish my message using italian.

apri un nuovo documento con notepad.

quindi lo chiudi salvandolo come: newsms.lnk (L N K)

a quel punto metti quel file dentro la directory indicata sopra.

spegni e riaccendi e comparirà il comando "new sms" dentro start.

ma ancora nessuno ha trovato il modo di sostituire contatti con il comando per il nuovo sms.

Hey bud.... No matter what I do this simply opens up the message centre to where I last was. I've even gone to the task list and closed all apps.

Any other clues?

[Guest xeno1]

Copy and paste this in to your link and it will open a new blank txt msg. -

New, blank message: 99#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "SMS" -to "" -body ""

i just use the kontakt list and choose send message, just as well to look up who its gonna send to at the beginning as any other time, mostly i just use the reply option. i kinda like the delete button, makes things easier at least for me.
