absoludely · **8700 compose shortcuts? -** 06-19-2006, 11:00 AM

hi i'm pretty much a noob around here, only had my 8700g for about a week and i've been on here trying to pick up as much as i can. have a few questions though at this point i've not been able to find answers to that i'm hoping someone can help with.

wondering if there are any shortcuts available to be able to compose sms or email messages from the home screen by just pressing one button (like c for compose on the earlier bb models).

thnx in advance for the help.

Hi - search for "QuickCompose" on this forum. RIM removed the Compose icon in OS 4.1 and this is a great addition to replace it.

I replied. Here is what I wrote:

Go into the Phone Log (phone icon) and click the wheel, then go to options. Click into General Options and you will see "Dial from Home Screen" there
