hii all,
i have just bought an o2 xda2 last week, i oftenly recieved double delivery report when i am sending a short message. i think that something error with my cell phone provider. but as i check and recheck, i found out that my xda2 sent the message twice (although i just only click the "sent" button once), and i'm loosing twice credit on it. sigh...
anybody having the same problem as mine? any solution?
and second.. i'm wondering if i can make delivery report activated as default.. ? thx 4 the reply..
Are you using a memory manager like Battery Pack, Pocket Plus etc?
These can be set to close an application, rather then send to the background. What can happen, is that you send an SMS, then close Inbox before it has verified the message send, so next time you open it, it sends again.
If you do use a mem manager, remember to wait a few seconds before closing Inbox, or set the manager to meinimise Inbox rather than close it.
The only foolproof way to request delivery reports is by putting *0# thena space before the text of any message. This does reduce the available message by 4 characters, but is a universal command. (set *0# as a setting in My Text)

Hi,
I like sending SMS-messages... I also like to know when my recipient gets my message.
When I use "Edit" - "Options", I can check "Request SMS text message delivery notification"... Then I receive a notification when my message arrive.
How can I set this always on? With every message I need to re-check this!
Is there any registry-hack I can perform?
Thanks in advance!

EXACTLY MY PROBLEM!
CAN ANYBODY HELP?
Same here, anybody know of a 3rd party app that will solve this?
I do know that MS have FINALLY addressed this in their lastest Smartphone the SPV C500. All models before this one were like the XDA II, no delivery notifications.
Let's hope it get's addressed soon on PPC windows mobile 2003 SE!
SAME PROBLEM but i use extended phone this solves the notification & the redialing problem but the program is discusting
it's not a solution to the problem but it's what I've started doing as a marginally quicker workaround.
see the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12352&highlight=
I had to do the above because ticking the box didn't actually mean I got a delivery notification msg.
hope you find a proper solution sometime

This feature is available in your imate already.
Before sending any SMS, (you are still in the writting mode of the SMS), go to "Edit", then "Otions", and then put "Tick" in the Request SMS text message delivery nofitication.
You got to do this evey time you need a delivery notification of a message.
I know.. but can it always turned on, so that we don't have to tick on that option? just like sonyericsson or nokia(the dillivery report on by its default setting).
I have been using imate for the past one year, and I'm a heavy user of SMS. I do not think this feature is available like other mobiles.
I guess we have to do it every time we send SMS!
this file may help you the make the sms dilivery report ON , I'hv tryied it on Imate PDA2
If you do it from within the messaging App, don't start a message.
Menu - Tools - Options, select "Text Messages" and then tick the box, it will stay checked for all messages. Been using this for ages on my Trinity.
aweright here's another problem ov mine, so Please HELP!
it seems that every Text SMS that i send, my JAM resends it again ONCE or TWICE without my knowledge. My "SENT MESSAGES" folder only shows one SMS being sent, but the other mobile receives my message more than Once. and this has been happening for quite some time now, until one ov my friend asked me why i keep sending him same message again and again.
We are both on the same Network, and its not a NETWORK problem!..
Anybody knows what could be the problem, maybe its the settings that have all been messed up or something.
look this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32664&highlight=sms+send+twice
SPB Pocket Plus may be create this problem...after send SMS don't close mesaging while show info about SMS sending..
Hi guys n gals,
Anyone know if there exists any software that will allow me to c how many SMS i have sent each month?
Cheers in advance,
Immortal
pocketMax PhoneAlarm can do just that. It was meant to control your phone profiles. But comes with a powerful billing tool too. Can calculate your monthly bill and customise the billing including SMS send/receive cost, free minutes, monthly charges, credit limits, peak cost, offpeak cost, etc etc.
thnx for the suggestion, i tried it but didnt like it much, too complex for my liking, i only want a simple solution!
Thnx for the heads up anyway!
DKToday counts your minutes and sms. The other features can be disabled from the options. You can configure it by going to start-settings-system-today-items, click the today plug-in and then tap options. Very small and easy solution. I have attached the current version, but I don't remember if this version has the exe file in it or only the .dll. If the latter is the case, then search this forum for the thread "is there a call minute timer available for" in the Himalaya forum and get an older version from there, than replace the dll with the one in the file I attached.
Cheers Koksie, thats what im looking for.
One question, any idea on how to dismiss a missed call without dialing it again?
Hi ImmortalU, I don't think this is possible. At 0.00 it automatically starts a new day and then your missed call disappears... You can however try to disable the line that shows missed calls. If you go to the options menu op the today plug-in you can choose which lines to show. Possibly disabling one of the lines will remove the missed calls line.
how come it doesnt work on my mini? the sms counter stays at 000
You have to enable sms notification first. DKToday does not count the sms you have sent from POutlook, but counts the incoming sms delivery notifications. Dkot ( the writer) could not find another way to measure sms sending. No problem for me, I like to have a delivery notification anyway.
To do this you have to edit the registry but an easier way is to install the cab I attached and copy the cpl file found in the attached zip file to your /windows folder. With the second file you get a control panel applet in your start-settings-system that enables you to switch sms delivery notification on or off. The first file creates the registry settings that the cpl will work with. You can also manually enable sms delivery notification for each message you send in your messaging account. After creating a new text message, go to menu-options-and tick the box. However, this needs to be done again for each message you send. The two files attached will automatically handle notifications for each message.
great. thanks. my only problem now is if the delivery notification is charged to me by my operator.
Too bad for you! Luckily in Holland these delivery notifications are free. You could contact Dkot for help. good luck!
thanks for the quick replies koksie
you're welcome, I am sorry that you are charged for these notifications. Phone Alarm from PocketMax (I think) or Phone Dashboard can also count minutes and sms, but not freeware and these are large apps with much more functionality than I need. perhaps they fit your needs, you can always try them of course.
thanks for the info. ill try them out.
hi everyone, fyi if you want to clear a missed call you need to erase the entry in the call history, DK uses this list for the call entrys.
help me in getting some way of counting send SMS on smartfone
For a application i need to have access to check the total number of SMS send from the phone so that on next power on i Can check the SMS send and take start some application..

Hello, forgive my newbie ignorance please.
I have a new O2 Hermes, which I have flashed to Cingular:
RUU_HER_Cingular_1.34.502.1_1.16.00.00_wwe_cws_ship
I have attempted the QWERTY-QWERTZ registry fix, but am not yet successful (no big problem).
What is vexing me is that Messaging will not display incoming SMS -- inbox is always empty, but the Start menu says I have Text Messages Unread.
I am also unable to send SMS -- I press 'SEND' and the message sits in the outbox forever -- no error message. I know my SMS gateway is configured correctly, and I can't see anything else to configure except Unicode support.
I also know my account is set up for SMS because I can put my SIM in a conventional handset and it works in and outbound.
My colleague who has the identical Xda with the identical ROM does not have this problem.
Any ideas?
/PhM
is the inbox for the email or the sms or outlook...etc ?
seems simple but I can't find any other reason, there are a couple of inboxes check to see which one you're currently at you can switch through them,
seeing as it says you have unread messages I assume sms is working fine.
Messages clarification
when I click on the 'Text Messages: 8 unread', the device goes to 'Text Messages'
header is 'Inbox' and 'Received'.
the screen is blank exept for the footer 'Text Messages 0 items.
If I click on 'Inbox', I see the different folders 'MMS' (empty), 'Outlook 'Email' (which has the working outlook stuff), and 'Text Messages', which has 'Inbox' empty and 'Outbox' (1) -- the message that refuses to be sent.
It is bizarre behaviour.
I can't send MMS either; composed and 'sent' but stuck in outbox with an envelope+Xsymbol.... (but MMS is more complicated, and not as important to me)
go to messages,
click on menu/tools options,
what accounts do you have there?
you might need to setup a new text message account although it should be there automatically you might need to change the service number.
Hi Phm,
Sound like your SMS center number is not set right - could be wrong but check it here > Start > Settings > Personal > Phone - On the services tab click 'Voice Mail and Text Messages' > Get Settings. The numbers returned should be those as used by your network...
Gav.
Hi Gavin, Hi Darky.
My Messages:toolsptions has accounts:
* Text Messages
MMS
New Account....
text messages only has option 'unicode y/n'.
settingshone:voicemail/text shows:
Text message service centre: +1 (705) 796-9300
Voice Mail: +1 9604) 418-3471
which are correct for Rogers.
for giggles I retype the SMSc entry.
in PHM regedit (not the same PhM ;-) )
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\SMS contains Datagram, Status and TextShared, all empty.
System\State\Messages contains
OtherEmail\Unread (Count:6)
SMS\Unread (count 8, Text 'Text Messages...'
sync (name activesync, unread count 0)
TotalEmail\Unread (count 6)
Vmail line1,2, total (unread count 0)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
comm\cellular\SMS\Protocols\Notification
AppName tmail.exe
and a bunch of other parameters
subtlety: some of the entries point to AppName tmail.exe and others point to \Windows\tmail.exe. (explicit path)
Can I assume there's a path similar to old desktop windows?
HKLM\comm\cellular\SMS\Router and Store are empty.
that's all I see in the registry that might be relevant.
HKLM\Services\SMSReciever looks in order.
Next thing I'll try is reflash the system. But that's a bit like trying to start the car with one foot on the ground.
Hi,
In mine I can see and read SMS, but can't send. Today I found the reason is probably that I got a 32kb SIM' card. My operator is sending me a 64kb. 128kb do also exist.
Not sure this can be linked to your issue though...
SIM size and SMS?
Hi Prerna, interesting idea.
what makes it weird is that I was able to send and receive messages with the 'old' O2 flash. SMS broke when I loaded the Cingular flash I am still using my old Rogers SIM (vintage 2003 or so).
Maybe it's time to upgrade.
/PhM
re-flash helps
Well, I spent an hour, downgraded to the original O2 ROM, then upgraded to the Cingular ROM, and now SMS works again.
I have not yet tried to do the registry tweaks to restore the QWERTZ keyboard.
I wonder if maybe I accidentally broke something when I was poking around in the registry.
For now, SMS is working and that's the main thing

Hello,
I've an issue like this:
I could send and recived SMS but some SMS don't work (the one who tell me I've a message)
and apparently it's a know issue from my provider ...
just happened to me too. i have removed sim. put in other fone sent and received one sms. put it back in to my hermes and it started to work :S
i had such problem too until i uninstall the sunnysoft vcard software. After that sms goes fine.
Text Message: 6 Unread - but no messages
There are 6 unread text messages on my today screen but when I highlight it to view it, there are no messages to be read. I keep getting text messages and the counter just adds up but there are no messages at all.
Anyone have any ideas how to solve this? Your help is highly appreciated, thanks!

Hi
You can try the following application. It removes spurious unread message count from the today screen and resets it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=32766&d=1167695488
However - I am curious, is it the case that genuine messages are being received but that you just can't view them?

I had the same problem when I upgraded to any of the WM6 Roms, some days smses worked and others it would just store the smses in the outbox and if someone sent me a sms my phone display would come on but wouldn't indicate a sms, yet my friend would get a delivery report, so all i did was just downgarde to the latest WM5 Rom and problem solved.
