Re: Step-by-Step in Upgrading to XdA2JoJo.v3.2zt and Compari

heres a little explanation muna bro ha.. para mas clear(o mas maging magulo lols)

by default our text in inbox is set to "automatically change to unicode in case needed" .. and the messaging module in our xda can create a unicode command ..

normally if we make a sms .. it is not unicode yet.. and a normal sms can only sent to a maximum of 160 Characters ..

now if the messages detects that we have a sms command in our message it will automatically change to UNICODE and a unicode needed two bytes per Characters and a 20(or sometimes less) character for header (cant find a less technical bro eh ..).. so what it do a normal 160 character sms will remove and saved 20 character for header and so you will have only 140 characters left .. then since unicode needed two bytes per character it will divide to 2 .. so you will have a 70 characters left ..

now why we need unicode .. here it is ..

1. now the most popular reason why we use unicode is to automatically create a very long messages sent it separate per 160 characters and receive it as one .. now the unicode is not sent on the first messages but on the header of succeding messages so normally when sent a very long messages .. you will notice that it only 307 messages but it said na 3 messages already .. because it eats a 13 char code .. :) .. (hope you still with me)

2. now we also need the unicode to send and receive some special character or special command like Flash SMS or Blink SMS(for old nokia phones) ..

3. the telecom use a unicode to send a mms or gprs configuration thru sms or even in sending a SIM Application (in Sim Tool kit)

now the code that was use to make a command is the Grave Accent (`) on the left side of backslash("/") of your keyboard and the Acute Accent (´) .. in PC keyboard on the right side of Number "1" .. conjoined with "~" for Grave Accent (`) and Alt+0180 for Acute Accent (´)

NOW HERES SOLUTION (Go Directly here if you just want to solve the problem) .. :wink:

you can set the messaging to prevent you for automatically setting it to Unicode(a Solution but not Recommended)

1. Goto messsaging

2. Click Accounts

3. Choose Accounts ..

4. Tap the Accounts Tab

5. Tap the Text Messages

6. then uncheck the "Use Unicode when necessary"

but doing this .. the recipient will receive two messages incase you send a very long messages or sometimes the recipient will receive a 2nd or 3rd message that doesnt contains any character at all ..

or if you accidentally use the Grave Accent (`) on the left side of backslash instead of that character the recipient will receive a a question mark .. "?" .. :)

or

(RECOMMENDED)

you can simply avoid using the Grave Accent (`) [on the left side of Backslash("\") and instead use the one on the right side of the semicolon

or

what really puzzles me .. is why the autocorrect use the Acute Accent (´) than the Apostrophe or the Middle Dot (').. :? ?? and even editing the autocorrect.txt found in your windows directory wont fix the problem

so the best option so far is to turn off the AUTOCORRECT Function of the Input Module(HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

1. Goto Start->settings

2. Tap Personal Tab then Input

3. Tap the Word Completion

4. Then uncheck the "Replace text as you type"
