You need to install Preware first.

I'm posting it here just in case anyone else is dying to have a signature for their text messages, but it's not something that can be submitted for Preware...Installation will have to be done through WOSQI(which is how I ended up doing many of my patches anyway).

USAGE: Prior to installing, open the patch file in a text editor and change [SIGNATURE] to whatever text you would like, but you must leave the quotation marks.

Obviously, the next step is adding something to the preferences to edit and store the signature, but I don't have time right now...If anyone else wants to run with it, please do.

Please see post #74 for most current patch.

2010-03-30: Fix to support messages created in the chatview.
2010-04-04: Added signature customization.
2010-04-12: Added a greeting (which could be used for a delivery confirmation string).



Patch creation is something I do in my spare time for myself and the Precentral community.
If you find value in my work, please take a moment to click the thanks button.
Should you be inclined, a donation link is available in my signature, and a sincere thanks to those who have.

[DragonCivil]

When I try to download it onto my phone from my phone, it says, "This file format is not supported.", and when I download it to my computer and put it on my phone folder, nothing happens do you know what I should do?

[ijm2009]

ok so i am extremely lost on how to get the patch for signature... can someone please walk me through it step by step...

@ 'losties'
Start reading posting "Welcome to the webOS Patches Forum". That could guide you to "Getting Started: Homebrew Apps, Patches, and Themes" and that could guide you to "How to Use Preware for Homebrew Apps, Patches, and Themes"

Once setup it's extremely easy to install patches. I believe this patch is not yet available for webOS 2.1?

its not letting me type in the outgoing signature space no matter how many times i click on the blank area. what do i do?

[bustr85]

i'm getting a garbage text problem, with the following error: "patch unexpectedly ends in the middle of the line" on ny Pre 3...any idea what i'm doing wrong?

[bustr85]

Anybody else would be interested in the original sms sent time to be displayed on the Pre3?
