Well, this patch will prevent casual looking at your private texts. It does this hiding the message on the Notification and Dashboard (including lock screen).

Poor Mans Twitter Client If you receive messages from Twitter via SMS and frequently use the Messaging app to reply to and/or retweet them, you may be interested in this patch.

It adds 'Retweet', 'Reply', and 'Leave' items to the context menu that shows up when you click on a message. None of these commands send your message right away; this allows you to check and edit the message before sending it.

For this patch to work, your contact *must* be named 'Twitter' (case-insensitive). Should also work with shortcode 40404.

Scrim Chat Balloon I have created this to help the people that don't feel comfortable using command line.

Here's how it works!

1)Create a folder in usb mode called 'scrims' without the quotes
2)Place the chat balloons pics you want in the newly created scrims folder.
3) make sure they are named:
chat-balloon-left.png
chat-balloon-right.png

Enjoy!

Scrim Messaging This patch adds the ability to add a background scrim image to the messaging app. When you install this patch it will first change the messaging app to almost the Palm-Dark scheme (dark gray back ground with black fonts) if you like it you can stop there.

Choose an image, name it messaging-scrim.png and save it in the wallpapers folder (/media/internal/wallpapers/) on your Pre.

SMS Tone per Contact This patch adds a message tone field to all of your contacts. Once this field is set, it will play that tone when any SMS message comes in from that contact. If the contact doesn't have a message tone set, it will go to the global default message tone set in Sounds and Alerts. If there is not a global default set, it will simply play the alert. This patch also adds the ability to set the alert tone and notifications tone from the Sounds & Alerts application.

SMS Tone per Contact v2 This is a reworked version of the original SMS Tone Per Contact patch.

Summary of changes to the original patch:

- Since the unpatched messaging application now allows for selecting a global message tone, removed the redundant code that added this functionality.

- Contacts are now looked up by phone number and then email address, rather than just phone number, in case the sms was sent via email.
- Slight interface cleanup ('Pick a message tone' now in same font and style as 'Pick a ringtone')
- Removed selection of default notification and alert sounds. Following the Unix law, this patch does one thing well.
