Hi, i don't know if you already know know this but these are a few tips i've been able to figure out in my MDA Compact. let me know what you think.....
To create a new folder to save sms messages:
Go to SMS Messaging ----> Tools ----> Manage Folders ---> New ( then specify new folder name) The folder is created as a sub folder of the Inbox folder.
If you have contacts who have more than one mobile phone you can save their number under pager, work tel, home tel etc. Now this is pretty obvious BUT what you really want is to be able to identify the network the number is on and this is where the tip comes in. After adding their mobile number you can add the network the number is on by enclosing it in curvy brackets like so "079111 111 1111 (vf)" vf for Vodafone (o2) and so on. It works i tried it the dialer simply selects the number and dials it and ignores the bits in the brackets.
The third and final tip is to backup your text messages. you can create a new folder inside inbox, move your messages into that folder then use Sprite Backup and select to :lol: backup that folder only. later on when you want to restore your messages you can just restore that folder and then update it with the new ones in your inbox and then back it up again.
let me know if you found the tips useful
