WM6.1 Threaded Text messages: See more of the message your writing
by jammie on Jan.31, 2009, under mobile, wm6.1
Ever since i upgraded to WM6.1 i have always found the threaded text messages a problem when writing a message to someone. Its extremely useful if your trying to reply to a message but i always thought that it did not show enough lines of the text i’m personally writing.
When i had my HTC Vox (or Orange SPV E650 as orange themselves would like to call it) this was no so much of a problem. I could type so quickly on the keyboard I had no need to keep reading back through the text i had previously. Now with my HTC Touch Diamond texting takes a lot longer so its nice to see the last sentance or two that i have written.
Thanks to this thread i have now successfully changed the size of the field that is provided.
Details are as follows:
- Go to the windows directory on your phone
- Find file threaded_sms.htm
- Find line: <Inbox:content id=”COMPOSESUBJECT” width=”98%” height=35
- Change the height=35 to whatever you like.
- Save and soft reset your phone.
I have changed mine so it looks like <Inbox:content id=”COMPOSESUBJECT” width=”98%” height=50. This gives me 3 lines of the text im writing rather than two.
