XDA2 Upgrade to WM2003SE - Voicemail Icon lying to me! - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hi All,
Firstly allow me to commend everyone who has helped bring the wm2003se upgrade to the Himilaya device series. As usual i was reluctant to risk my device as it is a true workhorse, but the temptation proved too strong and i went for the upgrade anyway. So far it seems to be working ok except for two things. The first is the voicemail icon that appears in the taskbar at the top of the screen. it is constantly beeping and informing me that i have a voicemail, however when i call my voicemail - nada! no messages. Hang up and get informed of a new message, one that my phone has apparently made up! The second thing is the restore feautre in activesync. After the upgrade i tried to restore a backup on my work pc, i was denied due to "backup is for an older type of device" or summit like that. Once home i tried the same proceedure on my pc there and guess what? it worked first time, only after soft resetting it only restore some items (like my docs folder) but not others like settings, progs etc. Another weird thing is that the contact harwdare button became disabled with an error message saying no mapping found, went to the buttons menu in settings and there was no option to assign the contact action to the contact button? I have since resolved most of these issues except for the voicemail thing that us really annoying me. If anyone can suggest a fix, please please do!
Cheers all

SMS Icon still there (after the sending confirmation)

Hi guys,
I have a confirmation after a SMS is sent. Telling me "the sms is sent"
and an enveloppe will show at the top of the XDA2 (the same enveloppe you got when you received an Email)
But the enveloppe Icon won't go?? Unless I do a reset???
If I get an SMS and I read the SMS, then the Icon will go away.
But in this case since this is just a confirmation, and there is no SMS to read. I can't get the icon to leave??
can someone help?
thank you
This happens to me as well from time to time...I think it has to do with if you come out of the Inbox applet a little too soon, or sometimes if you don't click on the envelope icon once it appears.
One of those annoying little things but I don't think it does any harm to your messages or anything. A soft reset always clears it for me.
Anthony
same here with ruu172104wwe on O2 XDAII, does happen 3-4 times a week, soft reset will wash the taskbar..
same here
Exactly as Anton says (same on XDAI). If you send an SMS message and exit the INBOX too quickly, the "sent" envelope gets stuck.
It's a bug! :roll:
never happent to me but i have heard that people with pocket plus who have not removed the option where it really do close applications insted of just minimizing them having this problem
Thank you
thank you
I was thinking I'm the only one.
Have a nice week-end

My problem is even worst! Sometimes, when I send an sms the small box-icon remains there and if I tap on it,..the beneficiary gets another sms once again!!
I have Spb Poket Plus & Spb Full Screen keyboard installed. Maybe it's due to those software!
iv been getting this with my m1000
and wadda ya kno.... iv got pocket plus running with the "close" option bit....
well if you got pocket plus
and do use the REAL close option
cant you just wait untill the sms is sent before
you close outlook
imho then the real close option is a bit of a problem
because ms never ment programs to be closed that way / at all
Hi there,...I contacted Sbp software and explain the problem,... I disabilited the "really close option" and the problem never appears. ... I close applications manually.
That's all folks
i dont really see it as sbp's problem but more as outlooks problem
if their request to send get messed up because of the sender being killed it's not really sbp's problem it's the way outlook is
of cause one may think it odd that sbp make their closing the default option
For Rudegar
Of course you are right! it's not sbp's problem. I immediately supposed it's an outlook problem. I really hope future versions of outlook would consider this fact. But the important for me was to stop SMS problems. Disallowing "close all" option solved it. And for me (and I think other people having this problem) it's more than acceptable.
sms icon
You need to add tmail.exe to the programs the Plus 2.0 marks as exceptions.
you need to open your inbox,then open Options of Plus 2.0 and add in the exceptions the last program opened(in this case the sms program which you opened...tmail.exe)
that should do it
It seems to be working fine!! many thanks jokz23!!
thank you very much
It seemed working fine,...
After my previous post, I added tmail.exe as exception,... The application didn't close. Good, I sent an sms. the icon didn't froze,...but my girlfriend got -3- sms
I think we only have to renounce "really close" function.

smsengine error - no incoming texts!

Hi there,
Can anyone help me with an odd sms problem?
After installing some programs to try and back up my text messages from my xda exec, which were unsuccessful, I've since uninstalled them and now discovered I'm not recieiving any incoming text messages... only the network voicemail 901 messages ever get through, but whenever a text message comes in I get a dialogue appear saying
"smsengine.exe
The file 'smsengine' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file."
when "ok" is clicked, the dialogue closes, then when the pocket outlook is opened I get a small dialogue box saying
"SendMyMessage
SendMessage failed.
TimeOut!"
Obviously I can't ever see what the message was, it just never gets displayed in Pocket Outlook (presumably due to the error above )
Any Ideas what I can do? is smsengine.exe a standard WM5 program, if so, can somebody find it on their machine, copy and email it to me, and tell me where to save it to?
Or do I need to muck about in the registry?
I can't reset my phone to factory defaults because I have some really, really really important text messages relating to my employment which was why I started this mucking about trying to back up the messages in the first place... so I'm really stuck now, and I'd really appreciate if someone could offer some advice on what the best approach would be.
hi,
I've heard of smsengine.exe afaik its not a standard wm5 file i'd say whatever programs you installed to backup are the cause of your problems.
I'd reinstall the programs and remove 1 at a time to see which is the cause
What programs did you install?
solved - thanks - any other sms backups that might work?
Thanks Deadmetal
Strangely I'd already tried uninstalling, with no luck, but tried reinstalling, then removing, and eventually the problem seems to have fixed itself using this proceedure. very odd!
The program I installed was smsOrganizer by zedsoft
http://www.zedsoft.net/
Which doesnt seem to work on the Exec for some reason, even though it says its WM2005 (which I presume is WM5 - if I'm wrong with this assumption it might explain why it messed it up <grin>)
Can anyone recommend a good (free) tool to backup sms messages under WM5 that I can use?
Thanks for the help
Derek
Ah! smsorganiser! Yeah I thought the software you had been using was that. I've had several problems using it but it does look a decent piece of software if the bugs ever get ironed out!
the problem keeps on!

Help - SMS account gone!

Hi!
My device stopped working last night (would not power on or react to anything, including an attempted soft reset). Removing the battery brought it back to life, but resulted in a hard-reset.
I just restored it from a recent backup, as I did a few times before. Only when I tried sending an SMS I get a message telling me there is no entry for the contact (even though it looked up the number just fine). Then the SMS account was gone, I only have the ActiveSync one and one other (that used to be the SMS account labeled only 'Inbox').
I did a quick Google search and fount out the complete HKLM/software/Microsoft/Inbox/SVC/Sms key is missing. Can somebody please Export the full key and post it somewhere (I'm on T-Mobile in Austria, if that matters, but other from the SMS service number, I guess things should work fine with any key).
Thanks a lot and hope I can fix things that way, I don't want to dpend another 90 minutes on copying the backup to the device.
Thanks,
Darkguy

[MMS/SMS] messed up - solved

I don't know if anyone else has encountered this problem, but it seems to me my SMS/MMS manager is messed up. I had a SMS conversation with 2 contacts and they received all my messages at once, 3 times.. I also received several errors at once "message could not be delivered, stored as concept" (needed to press 10 times OK). I received a MMS but couldn't download it (mms worked perfect with my previous phone). I sent 3 MMS's, but only the first one was received. When I try to open "sent items" my manager "blocks" (and does weird things when I keep scrolling down), but I can go back to the other folders. Is it normal that every message I sent is stored in Outbox?
Another q, how can I display "time" in my topbar? I know it was possible with my P3600, but since HTC Home it's a bit difficult to find this (non-existing) option.
Thanks.
I don't have this problem with my Snap - I have an unlocked HTC-branded device (not obtained from a network provider), OS details as per my signature. You?
To get the clock to show in the Windows Mobile Standard icon bar you need ClockOnTop.exe - there's no facility to put the time and date there otherwise (as you could with Windows Mobile Professional).
See here.
Thanks, I got the clock installed now.
I also have an unbranded HTC device. ROM: 1.19.404.1, Radio: 3.45.25.30A.
So you can access "sent items" without a problem? And your outgoing messages, are they stored in "Outbox" or "Sent items"?
I did something wrong during the first setup of my device:
When asked for my internet connection, I pressed "cancel" since my internet provider wasn't listed. Therefore the setup of my device wasn't completed and that's why my message system was driving mad. Probably also the result of receiving a few messages before completion.
I performed a hard reset, chose a random provider and everything's working fine now!
SOLVED!

Allright mate
You got it solved!
Thread can be closed
Well I had the same problem and it was really screwed up, my settings were listed and applied. That night it sent my messages time after time to all the contacts I sent messages to previously. I thought there would be something wrong in the network but my operator ensured me the messages originated from my device at a +- 10 minute pace.
I contacted HTC support in the Netherlands, I was told to do a hard reset and it was fixed. I recommend hard resetting all new Snap devices upon first use to eliminate this problem. I also received a message from a fellow new-Snap-owner who had the same problem, so watch out with this as it will tear up your phone bill!
My Snap is unlocked HTC branded and everything else seems perfectly fine!
Thanks for the clockontop tip btw!
ozone unlocked

Help - Absolute newbie and done 'something'!

I've had my HTC about 3 weeks and it's the first smartphone I've had so my question may be a bit stupid to you experts
I'm on pay monthly )2 if that makes a difference?
I've had problems with text messages randomly getting stuck in outbox and not being sent.
I've searched on the internet and found HTC have issued a fix LEO08007-07 so I downloaded it from the HTC site and have installed it.
It appears the TODAY app with all the weather , pictures, music shortcuts has now disappeared and I'm getting a blank front screen. The settings menu has changed and I cant access the HTC Message app at all
What have I done wrong and how can I get it back.
Sorry - just found Today shortcut (moved to a different part of screen but it's not working
I also forgot to add ROM 1.43 something
Sorry if it's straightforward. Cheers guys
If you've not done too many customisations I'd suggest a hard reset. To do this, turn the unit off, hold down both vol up and vol down and turn it back on and follow the screen instructions. I'd recommend doing this with both SD card and SIM card removed to be on the safe side
Thanks for that help. It's got me back to the start
Is there anything else 'easy' I can do to stop the texts getting stuck in my outbox?
Is there anything els you'd recommend for a newbie to do.
The ROM is 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE
I hope you guys don't mind helping. As it's my first win mob I want to try and make the most of it but I'm not really tech minded
Its look like you have a bad settings for O2 (data,messages,..)
Go to Start\O2 and click Get Settings.
It should help. If no try this(only for SMS and Voice Mail )
Start\Settings\Personal\Phone\Services choose Voice Mail and Text Messages than press Get Settings.
It should show you these numbers if not fill it
Text massages service center: +447802000332
Voice Mail: 901
Press OK
All done
Hope it help
Thats great thanks.
Hope thats solved my problems
