Does anyone know where the sound settings have gone for MSN Messenger on the XDA Exec. They used to be in sounds and notifications on the older OS's.
It isnt available in WM2005. Incredible
Not in the usual place anyway. I have also had a search around the registry but i could not find anything obvious.
Just Incase anyone is interested dmr54 over at Tekguru found the answer on a blog at

Here are the registry keys you’ll need to add to your device:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65E-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000008
@="Messenger: Contact Online"
"Wave"="notify"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65F-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000008
@="Messenger: New Message"
"Wave"="notify"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
After adding these you can go to the Sound and Notifications control panel and customize the notification behavior.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I just created a txt file with the above 2 blocks in it and renamed it to messenger.reg then ran it on the Exec. Now i can set the notifications from the usual place.
Worked fine for me but you attempt at your own risk.

I supposedly did this (its all I've done this morning) but:
a) I can't see the entries in the reg file
b) my data connections no longer work
Dunno how to back out the changes if I can't find them!

Thanks Dingo - works fine for me.
Somehow it wiped the password and username settings for the T Mobile 3G / GPRS connection, as well as the password on my exhange server connection... very strange!
I used this code in a text file renamed to messenger.reg
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65E-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000008

"Wave"="Notify"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
@="Messenger: New Message"
file imports, i see no keys appear in registry
well it took long enough using resco to edit registry, but it works. thank frek, now i have have msn on in the background and not get pestered every 5 seconds.
Contact online & message notification
just import this registry file,message notification and contact online notification will b solved
cheers
thats what i did in the first place, it was just never showing up in the registry. i then tried adding the key and it said it already existed, then is was visible, but empty, so i manually added the rest and it works fine.

Very strange indeed. The 2 entries are added to the ControlPanel\Notifications section of the registry so should not in anyway affect data connection.
It would be wise for other T Mobile users to take note though just incase. Also if you could post success/failure results it would help to determine what the problem may be.
Also i did not note in my post above that after changing the registry switch your phone off and then soft reset for the settings to take effect.

Getting tired of the messages and sounds pocket msn plays everytime a contact shows up online? Here's the deal to resolve this problem:
Go to:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\
(with a program like PHM, Resco)
make a new key:
{A877D65E-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
Add a string value in this key:
Default="Messenger: Contact Online""
add a string value in this key:
"Wave"="notify"
Add two d-word values in this key:
"Options"=dword:00000008
"Duration"=dword:00000000
(both in decimal)
After that you add:
{A877D65F-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}] in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\
Add a string value in this key:
Default="Messenger: New message"
add a string value in this key:
"Wave"="notify"
Add two d-word values in this key:
"Options"=dword:00000008
"Duration"=dword:00000000
(both in decimal)
If you turn off and turn on your phone after this, you'll see two new options in the tab sounds and notifactions in the configuration menu of your WM 5.0 phone.
w0w...you the man...it was getting really annoying!!!....thanks man works great!!!

Hello everyone,
i have a serious problem. Through my company exchange outlook account (OWA) i can send email that at the end will be delivered as sms. I have just to insert into "to" field the following "address": [sms:+44123456789]. Unfortunately i think there is a control on the email address format because it says it can not send sms through the email program (you can try from your diamond). How may I solve it? i found a possible solution, modify
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Settings]
"AllowSMStoSMTPConcatenation"=dword:00000001
"AllowSMStoSMTPAddress"=dword:00000001
but i cound't find a registry editor that saves the settings! i tried phm registry editor, resco registry and other desktop one. I can change the keys but they are not mantain the setting after the reboot. With the desktop registry i received an access denied when i try to save... in which am i wrong?? thanks
search google for "flushing registry ppc" or smth similar. certain parts of registry are locked from modification.

I'd stick with PHMregedit myself....never had any problem with it.
Two more things to add to the above post...
1. Soft-reset or power-off/on your device before doing the change (so there's nothing else - like the SMS program - running). It may be that you're doing the change when the TMAIL.exe program is in memory and it overwrites your changes?
2. Make the registry change and (depending on your device type) hold the power on/off button until it asks you if you want to power off. Doing it this way tends to flush everything - registry included - properly before it shuts down.
Hope that helps,
Mark.
One thing I miss about my old phone is the "sms sent" confirmation I used to get after sending a message. (also with a little animation).
It's really annoying to have to go round the houses to get to the sent folder to see if a message has been sent or not.
I had a whole day with a load of messages unknowingly sat in the outbox thinking they'd been sent which really annoyed me. It was only after I checked at the end of the day I found out they hadn't
Does such a thing exist for the diamond or is it too dependant on windows mobile.
Also still have not found a decent lock program that locks EVERY button (including the power) and stops me answering calls getting my phone out my pocket and the sleeve. Tied s2u2 and touchlockpro but they are still unreliable
What was wrong with "menu - star" like on the nokias. - Worked a treat !!!
Any help would be appreciated

Alright mate.
Can't help with the locking problem, but here's what you need to do to get notification of SMS sent...
Go to the "messages" tab in TouchFlo and click "all messages". Then click "menu", "tools" and "options". Click "* SMS\MMS" and make sure "Request delivery notifications" is checked.
I don't use this myself, but I just tested it and it works for me.
Hope this helps you out.
John.
I use the following tip:
Use any Registry Editor, such as freeware CeRegEditor or PHM Registry Editor, and navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\
If “Settings” branch does not exist, create a New Key with name as Settings. Then highlight Settings, and then create a new String Value key with value name as SMSNoSentMsg, with its value data as 1.

... you're nearly right. You need to set the value to '0' if you wish to receive a notification that the SMS has been sent. If you set it to '1', you will not receive the notification (this is the default).
Nice one thanks guys. Went for the reg edit as didn't fancy getting a text back from operator every time I send one.
Just for the record yes the value of "SMSNoSentMsg" needs to be 0.
Again cheers for your help
Resurrecting this thread
I discovered this one earlier today, so far I'm liking it.
SMS Retry Notification
Enables/Disables a notification when an SMS message failed to be delivered. The phone will display a Popup displaying a summary of the message, to whom it was sent and when, and ask if you would like to try again.
[HKCU\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction\CDMA] change PhoneExt_SmsRetry
0 - Disable (Default)
1 - Enable
My phone is a Sprint CDMA phone (hence the registry address) but hopefully it's not a Sprint setting and other CDMA phones and maybe GSM phones have a similar location.

Sweet. I also like the original setting in this thread. I like to know when my text is sent. I don't use text that ofte, s this is not an inconvenience to me.
I've been digging around and trying numerous examples of the message2reg.exe utility. I've found examples from ThrottleLauncher, BatteryStatus, WAD... they all seem to include the same set of files and mortscripts. It seems like the shortcuts included should cause the message2reg.exe to run and put data into the registry at ...
SMS_text = RegRead("HKLM","Software\ThrottleLauncher\Messaging\SMS","Subject")
I have all the files in \Program Files\Message2Reg\
The mortscript writes then deletes temporary registry entries in noted location above. Then it does....
RunWait("\Program Files\Message2Reg\Message2Reg.exe","SMS Refresh")
This should put the data into registry but nothing ever shows.
Also tried ...
RunWait("\Program Files\Message2Reg\Message2Reg.exe","Text Messages Refresh")
because "Text Messages" is what shows in my Messaging application (not SMS).
Eventually I want to use mortscript to get weather from google via SMS, then use message2reg to parse the SMS.
Any tips?

..why don't u use regwritestring of mortscript instead of message2reg?
Let mortscript itself write the datas into registry.
How does mortscript know what to write into registry? The whole point of message2reg is to read the SMS text "behind the scenes" and put in the registry for programs like mortscript / rlotday / throttlelauncher to access. I haven't used MortScript to switch windows, copy text from window, etc.... That seems really messy and error prone, plus there are a lot of messages to repeat through.
Or can MortScript read directly from the WM messaging program now in a new version or something?
...hm I don't really know what message2reg exactly does. But mortscript is not able to communicate with the wm messaging interface.
How does message2reg know what to write in the registry? Sorry, but as i mentioned before I don't know message2reg.
But have a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479076&page=3
You are not alone :-(
Well, I haven't gotten it working yet... My impression is that it writes numerous entries into the mentioned registry key (entries for subject, sender, date, body) for the most recent message in the Messaging "folder". You tell message2reg which folder to read from as a command line parameter as well as Refresh...
RunWait("\Program Files\Message2Reg\Message2Reg.exe","SMS Refresh")
RunWait("\Program Files\Message2Reg\Message2Reg.exe","Text Messages Refresh")
If you want to see the information for the next oldest message, your execute message2reg again with the "Next" parameter, and then the existing registries entries are over-written with the 2nd SMS message...
RunWait("\Program Files\Message2Reg\Message2Reg.exe","SMS Next")

you're wrong with parameters of message2reg
they are : Next , Previous , Refresh , Reply , Details or Detail (don't remember)
Hi,
I was wondering if Message2Reg was able to get email body and/or message dates.
I successfully configured it to work with SMS and ActiveSync email but I cannot find the informations above. Any advise ?
Thank you !
This is the only info I found on this matter:
Message2Reg. Save to registry the message from the account with the number specified (to HKLM/ThrottleLauncher/Messaging/#AccountName#). Params: "account name [SMS/ActiveSync/...]" "Action [Next/Previous/Refresh/Details/Reply/Exit]". This little app is based on the MAPI api suplied here: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/mobile/PocketPCandSmartphone.aspx. If you want the sourcode of Message2Reg send me a mail and I'll send it in cumpliment of the BSD license.

damn i've really lost my mind trying to get this thing to work, seems like it does not want to wok on my device........somebody please help
i am lost at how your trying to run it.
all it does is write to the registry, you then need something to show the new reg keys.
example WAD can show REG text.
Dears,
How can i know my sent SMS status on my HTC Diamond 2 mobile??
(Sent - Received,...)
is there anyway to know that?
When writing the SMS, go to options- there is the option for a delivery report.
Sorry to hijack this post.
But I have just updated my phone with the official windows mobile 6.5 from the HTC website. For some reason I now can not set the LED to stay on until I have read the message like I used to be able to. The tick box is greyed out. Does anyone know a way around this?
SQueal. there is a regedit to fix this. get a regeditor,if you dont already have one and navigate to HKCU\Controlpanel\Notifications and find entry A877D65B…
change AvailableOptions value to 15.
hello. I have tcm and as I understand, i can edit the registry. Where do i find it? Thanks for your time

Thanks codhunter, is there a registry editor on the phone, or can I access it through a PC one when its hooked up via active sync?
While I am in there, is it also possible to change the text message alert to something I want, I notice that they have removed this on the updates as well which is quite irritating.
