Patch Messaging New Cards For Each Conversation
The message app can be a pain when you have multiple conversations going on. You have to swipe back and then pick someone else quite often. It gets annoying. This modification makes it so a new card is created whenever you click into a conversation.
Edit /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.messaging/app/controllers/listview-assistant.js We are going to replace the launchChatView function with the following...
launchChatView: function(chatThreadId) { //Need to jump to that stage if it exists var stageController = Mojo.Controller.appController.getStageController("messaging"+chatThreadId); if (stageController) { stageController.activate(); return; } var params = {name: 'messaging' + chatThreadId, lightweight: Mojo.Controller.appInfo.lwStages }; var callback = function(controller) { controller.pushScene('chatview',chatThreadId,{ focusWindow: true }); }; Mojo.Controller.getAppController().createStageWithCallback(params, callback); //doesnt create ifit exists sooo },
Now in /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.messaging/app/controllers/chatview-assistant.js Comment out lines 246 and 247 (WebOS 1.1: Lines 289 & 290). This will make it so if you back gesture in a chat, then it doesn't bring you back to the conversation list or do anything else.
Either reboot or refresh/kill LunaSysMgr.
Concerns
There's some delay in creating the new cards. I'm not sure why though.
Unread message counter in listview doesn't always update when you view a conversation.
