Make SMS-Chat Default SMS App?


Recommended Posts

Hi, I've been demoing the VITO SMS-Chat application, which I like very much. The threads are much easier to read than the built-in WinMo application.

But I've found that I only end up in SMS-Chat about 1/2 the time when I'm trying to text someone. If I receive a text and SMS-Chat displays it, then I'm OK and can respond. But if I'm in PhoneBook (or one of the other contact apps) and hit 'send sms message' to a contact, it will usually launch the built-in app.

I also use the Manilla 2D interface if that makes a difference. I have found a way to map the 'All Messages' soft key to SMS-Chat, but it only launches the app. When I click on a message in M2D, or hit the new message icon, it launches the default WinMo app.

- Any way to get this to work? I don't mind hacking the registry if someone tells me where to go.

Thanks. I really prefer this interface over the ugly WinMo built-in, but I'm not willing to spend money on it if it only works when I specifically launch it and start there.

Will this work on titanium as well? Been trying to work SMS-Chat into the CHome panel for a while now to no avail.

are you trying to launch sms-chat to the ms default panel chome or ctext? i don't think it is possible. if i have read it right the way they made the notification and panel you'd be hard pressed to find all the registry/dll/cpr files to make this happen. I'd start searching for a way to make a custom panel and add the notification to it. This seems to have been done, jmltoday plugin sorta does this. goodluck

Hmmm, I put the .exe file in the right place, but I'm unsure about how to import the .reg file. I have PHM Registry Editor, but the 'import' command is grayed out. If I double click the .reg file, PHM opens, but nothing happens (and again, the import link in Tools is grayed out.

So how do you import the file? Is it a lot of settings that need to change (maybe I can just do them manually)?

And concerning the placement of the SMS-Chat program file, it is currently in '/My Storage/Program Files/VITO/SMS-Chat/'. Is this OK? I hope I don't need to uninstall and reinstall in the main Device memory, as that is pretty low right now.

Thanks. I'll let you know if I get it working.
