I need help to install "Conversations Inbox Desktop Widget V1.1.1". when i try to install, it shows some problem (librtcom-eventlogger missing). i used to use old version of Conversations Inbox Desktop Widget in my another n900, but in my new phone i even don't have any option for old version. Someone please help.

That's very needy. also I would like to change the look of it, just to make it match my themes. Anybody know how to do that ? I can't find *.png corresponding to this widget anywhere on the device...

@Artem I know I can mark them as read as I go through each one, but what I am asking for is a way to delete them directly from the Conversations Inbox Desktop Widget instead of having to go into the Conversations app and manually flag a bunch of txt messages that I have already read in your cool widget.

Also, slightly larger buttons would be nice too ;)

For those that want to restore the widget to their desktop, the PR1.2 compatable application is in the Extras-Devel application library Although this isn't fully tested, I am yet to experience any issues/bugs with the updated application.

It still doesn't show up in widgets for PR1.2. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, powered off/on, no go.

THE ONLY SIMPLE THING U SHOUD DO TO HAVE THE WIDGET BACK: I am so happy after lot of unuseful searching finally i found the version 1.1.1 of conversations inbox widget which works after all other upgrading. simply go to this page: http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-devel_free_armel/conversations-inbox-widget/1.1.1/ tap the
( conversasations-inbox-widget-1.1.1_armel.deb) It is almost at the bottom of firt rectangel texts after size and MD5sum, then u will have the upgrade! easy but took 3 days of me as an amature even after mailing & mailing the producer. I wrote this to make amatures like me happy, do not forget smile! haha bravo

Hi, very nice thingie, but can it be that I am not able to add this widget anymore with PR 1.2?

@Willem, @Bill, the indicator of unread messages in the bottom left corner is a button to mark the current message as read. Its sensitive area is bigger than visual, so it should be quite finger friendly. It's not evident, but it's there :-)

I really like the look and usefulness of this widget.

I have a suggestion for a new feature:

In the bottom left corner, you show the number of unread SMS messages, and the time of the current one is displayed in the bottom right.

I get a lot of text messages from my network monitoring server and it would be nice to be able to read them and delete them directly from the desktop widget.

Currently I see them in the widget, then I need to go to the actual list and delete them all manually.

I think that adding another button at the bottom of the widget to delete message would be a great feature.

Also making the "count/read message" and hopefully new "delete message" buttons a little larger would be great too since I rarely use the stylus.

Nice to be able to read my last message, but it would be even better if there was a way to scroll through all new messages. Now I'll have to open the conversations application in order to read my other new messages.

Hello, Artem, the applications is nice, just some comments, you have SMS Icon and then 2(7) and IM 3(6), I wondering if wil be nice to show how many SMS or IM you have it un-read and then the other info. Will be really nice something like that SMS Icon: New 3. Conversations 5. Total 23

And the same for the IM, in that way will be really nice.

Thanks

it will be better if it works like a pop up, it will appear on desktop only if you receive a sms, and when you have read or answered, the window disappear... what do you think ?

@Tom, the widget still shows unread messages (along with sender's avatar and presence :) ), if you belive there is a problem, please, report the bug with the steps to reproduce it. Of course, if the corresponding conversation is open, the widget shows nothing (but than there are no system notifications as well)

Before the recent update, this was useful, as it showed the message body. After the update, it doesn't look like the screen shot at all and just has two meaningless numbers for each of IM and SMS (I think it's "number of conversations I've read but not delated" for the first number, not idea about the second). I strongly suggest it needs reverting.

when i click on any of the messages it goes to the next message until the screen says "no messages" and the new message icon still appears in the top left

ive tried updating this app as i thought that had all been fixed but it cant find any new updates

i like the idea but currently doesnt feel that useful to me?

Ates, it's a known problem that hildon-home may restart in a safe mode (with 3rd party widgets disabled) during widget's installation (https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8895). If it happened, add your widgets back to the desktop via the desktop menu.

I was using it since it's first release. But yesterday after I download the new update, it erased all my desktop widgets including Foreca, Personal Data Plan and Personal Picture Frame. I tried re-downloading but same problem. Now it doesn't show on the screen eventhough I can see it in downloaded folder.

I also wonder what the numbers are, and how to get rid of them (I not interested how many messages I've not deleted). In that respect I don't see how 0.1.0 is an improvement on the previous version. Otherwise very nice tool.

This is definitely a widget that should be included by default with every N900. Simple, does the job, works as expected.

I don't understand the numbers that appear in the widget since the latest version. If it's a kind of counter, I do not understand what it counts. When I delete all my messages, the counter keeps giving the same (incorrect) numbers.

This is a pretty good app. I use it on a daily basis! My comments are the same as others: 1. Ability to open the message from the widgit 2. The blinking blue indicator light should turn off when you dismiss messages from the widgit. Currently, it will only go off if you open Conversations or just never have it on in Settings.

works fine. As crazy as it sounds... there are hours in a row in a day my N900 is asleep. Nice when I wake it (rudely) in one look I see who missed me. Nice.

Please consider a "dismiss all"/"clear" button.

Very useful widget. If we could disable notifications (NOKIA defaults) one would be perfect. So we don't both.

Useful for quick peeks, but would be even better if it had a separate 'mark seen' button and the default action would be open conversation, as suggested before me.

Very useful widget. Some improvements I would love to see:

  • display oldest post first, better to read messages in the order they where sent.
  • display more messages in view at the same time. 1-row summary truncated with "..." and expand when clicked.
  • configurable width/height.

Would be great if you tapped the message and instead of disapearing it opened up the conversation / IM Screen. But over all Good.

I like it but I wish it would wake up the screen when a message comes in. Also would be nice to be able to respond in that window also.
