This mod will expand the truncated status messages in the messenger under Buddy List. Works in 1.2, but forgot to check line numbers, so search based on context.

Step 2: Unlock file system mount -o remount,rw /

Step 3: Open /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.messaging/stylesheets/messaging.css vi /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.messaging/stylesheets/messaging.css

Step 4: Go to line 167
 * 167

Should be .buddy-list .palm-row { height: 60px; }

Step 5: Replace height: 60px;

with

height: auto;

Step 6: Open /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.messaging/app/views/listview/buddyList-row.html vi /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.messaging/app/views/listview/buddyList-row.html

Step 7: Go to line 11
 * 11

should be
 * 1) {-customMessage}

Step 8: Replace
 * 1) {-customMessage}

with


 * 1) {-customMessage}

= Issues= Not quite sure why but sometimes in the buddies view the group names are shifted over to the right. Had this issue on both 1.1 and 1.2. See image below for example:
