Hi peeps.
After reading through various posts on this board, I thought I would hard resst my exec and install the cabs manually as suggested to get the features I want without the bloatware.
So far so good, installed everything I wanted and the connections only cab that is availble but, my MMS doesn't seem to work.
There is no MMS account in poutlook and there's noway that I can see of composing new MMS messages.
How does everyone else go on with this because when I've looked through some of the posts, everyone says thier SMS is working OK.
It's probably something stupid... :roll:
Cheers,
Smiff.
See? That's what happens when you don't proof-read your posts - there's loads of spelling mistooks and typos; and then no-one responds.
But seriously, someone else must have seen this as I'm not the only one to do a minimal install. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Smiff.
Answers in this thread for the cab file to install.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32527
I've read that one multiple times but still have no working MMS in this situation...
I THINK
I beleive you have to create new account. It appears to be setting up email just continue through and at some point you can select type and set to mms. Then highlight account click on settings and put in your providers mms setting and bingo...
must say I havent had this problem on the exec but did on xdaiis and that solved it..
hope that helps
stay happy

Hi
Thanks for the tip but unfortunately, it didn't work that way
However, I have managed to get it working now - i did a hard reset again and a clean install and then installed 5 cabs - voicemail one, bt patch, both "shortcut" ones and the uaprof one.
The only thing I did differently this time from all the others is that I switched it off with the power button and on again before soft resetting it - i'm pretty sure that this did the trick
Cheers,
Smiff.

I basically bought a brand new wizard from O2 in Uk, hard reset it, reset when "starting customisation", installed "show ext rom cab" and got rid of all that crap.
got everything working on the pda, software installed, but I CANNOT get MMS to work.
Ive tried cabs off here, inputting manual settings, and I cant get it to work.
Im thnking maybe I need to install something else? Ive got "MMS Configuration..." under the different account menu, which is maybe mms composer? I go to about and it says "mms composer v3.0.7.14" but there is nowhere i can DESIGN an mms???
I had this problem on my old compact when I went bigstorage.
ANYONE HELP
thanks by the way, great site.
why don't you install the I-Mate rom instead - and then just delete the antivirus and skype - so that you have a nice and clean install which works really fast (from experience) - and also works with mms 100%?
surely there is an easier way than reflashing the device with a new rom.
I've got this just as I want it bar the mms.
well it's your business ... however... when you hit the reset button to "get rid of the crap"... you might have prevented some patches from being installed - and sometimes these patches are important for stable functionality.
In any case, I agree that there must be a way to get the MMS working without flashing the ROM, however I just feel that the I-Mate rom without hitting the reset during boot and with all the patches - will probably serve you better.
However, I wish you luck with your current ROM.
Somebody said the only benefit of flashing a k-Jam Rom on was the wifi G. Not so, after you have done the extended ROM thing on the K-JAM Rom, you have about 5mb more space, and none of the T-Mob rubbish like that horrible pink dialer. The Camera appears to be slightly better too.

Don't do a reset when the O2 extended rom kicks in, let in run and choose a "Basic" install at the menu. You get all the O2 conectivity and MMS App but no O2 active or anything. it does install a couple of O2 apps that you can remove later.
Oh, there are a couple of O2 items in the start up you need to remove as well.
Not perfect but probably an easier option if like me you couldn't be doing with the hassle of a full reflash
well, ive got no o2 cabs on the device anymore, only stuff like resco and the likes in its place :lol:
but I made a copy of all the cabs, does anyone know what they are?
And which ones people would recommend to install

Hello
I am in the same situation as you!
Have done a hard reset to get rid of the o2 crap which makes the machine run loads better.
I have everything back to how I want it except the MMS function.
How did you solve your dilema?
Thanks
Me as well, any way to get the MMS accont back?
I had a similar problem of not being able to send MMS, but never have done and found out 6 months later that O2 hadnt set it up on my account !!!
Worth a check

I did a basicinstall and soft reset before all the o2 customisation happened. But the GPRS settins dont seem to be set up. Does anyone know what these are. Tried the o2 site but the XDA mini s isnt listed??
Also I cant seem to send MMS's either, had a look around and found an mms image, when i do send i get the following options :
Text messages (greyed out)
and 3 email accounts.....

been covered before many time so do a qucik search and you'll find loads of threads about this, but basically if you do the soft reset install method you won't have MMS app installed as it's part of the O2 extended rom, your better off ding a basic install and manually removing the O2 stuff from Windows\startup and remove programs

Tried that, also done a search on hereand tried about 5 different lots of settings. None work. Just done a hard reset and resorting to basic setup. Hope it works!
Edit : All working now, just got to get rid of that orrible O2 logo at the top!
Not sure doing it that way wasthe best idea, its now that slow its almost going backwards...Have to keep soft resetiing every 5 mins too, frequently hangs/gets stuck.
OK that sucked so completely rest without customisation again. I have entered all the GPRS settings and the phone connects. When i try and find a webpage though it connects to GPRS then in the status bar shows "Locationg..." but it never finds the page and after a few minutes it says page not found.
Any ideas??
Hello all,
First time post for me, though I do frequent MODACO now and again. I recently performed a hard reset due to a complete failure of my SPV M600. I thought I would take the opportunity to remove the Orange CABS that install follwoing the reset. Fine, the phone is now faster and has much more memory available. Only problem is that obviously one of those cabs activated the Arcsoft MMS composer and added MMS to the list of available messaging (i only have text, outlook and my pop3).
I have had a nose in th Registry and found two possibles one in HKLM/software/microsoft/inbox/mms1 and the other in HKLM/software/arcsoft
but thats as far as I can get because I dont know enough about how a registry works to start adding keys and DWords etc.
My request is... does anyone have a .cab that will tweak the Reg to add the MMS functionality or else a simple step by step guide to make the necessary reg tweaks myself?
I have already made the necessary changes to the connections to setup MMS, think I just need to tweak the Reg?
Anyway, any help greatfully received.
OK how about a cab?
Ok so no response on the Reg tweak, howzabout a .cab file that will do the job? Would appreciate any glimmer of hope someone can fling in my direction?
Hi,
I've got he same problem...and I still have no answer...It occurs the same thing to me when I restored a backup of SMS/Mails with SPB Backup. Since this backup I can't send or receive any MMS, even if ArcSoft MMS is installed on my PPC (included in the rom). If someone could tell us how to do....don't hesitate !
Keep searching...
I created this Cab originally for myself and I have had some requests for it so here it is. If there are any issues please direct them here and I will look into them.
If people are interested I will soon include a cab with the MMS at default 600k, let me know.
Before Installing cab make sure that you delete your old settings first!
Enjoy!
New Cab for VPN users, settings from mangopudding. I don't use these settings, just made the changes from the settings provided.
Grabbed it, thanks!

The new vision stuff isn't on here, the guy that was doing the testing for that for me went on vacation for a month so I haven't been able to finish that off.
I will keep looking into though.
If you have the base settings or anybody else pm me with them, I will get it done sooner that way.
hi lurch how yu doing. i installed the cab and had already manually entered the settings. my problem is recieving ppicture messaging. i can send but not able to recieve any at all. i'm using the softbank x01ht. do u know a solution that could fix this

Have you manually gone in to look at the settings?
If you have let me know what the differences are from what you entered manually, It is possible that the MMS settings didn't completly override the old settings.
ok do forgive for the little naivety that will be displayed...i check in connections and everything is supposedly set up correctly according to the stettings you had written before you made the cab...i also setup the server when i'm gettin ready to send a mms message...just so you know i'm using the new black shadow rom with radio 1.43 is there somewhere else i'm suppose to make changes...when i go to manage existing connections, do i have to setup anything under proxy settings

No leave the proxy settings alone.
Go to messages, SMS/MMS (forgot you had Shadow running), options, click on MMS, and then the servers tab at the bottom, you should only see one thing there highlighted "Rogers MMS"
If you don't let me know. Or if there is 2 different ones there tell me what they are.

Here's a long shot but have you went to send and receive.
Doesn't make any sense?
I had to try myself on the 17745 build, I sent a message to myself and I received no problem.
Is the problem on the other sending end, send one to yourself, make sure that you put in the number like this 9995554444, no prefix and you have to have the area code in there which in my example is "999".
Sorry that I am writing all this out but there are people out there that don't know this and I am making sure that I am being very clear.
Hard reset works to.
I guess you don't want to waste time.
I am at work, but the PC is on, I usually get the messages fast so I will get you through this.
Once you are up and running install the cab file, no need to hard reset, then send yourself a MMS, look at my previous post. tell me if you get it, you will probably get a screen saying that a download is there, click download anyway.

The settings are absolutly identical.
Question did you have any issues before you changed ROM's.

if i'm not mistaken i was able to send it on the wm5 but think the problem occurred when flashed to wm6...i've only been using black roms so far, there was one time when send/recieve was highlighted but i use to get error synchronizing back then asi notice some people did also but now its just not highlighted at all...other than that no problems

Right now all that I can suggest is to try and manually install the MMS, go to the settings and delete the MMS Rogers that is there and make a new one, you shouldn't have to change the connection settings, and see if send and receive will highlight.
I can send files but not receive with bluetooth. I am paired up with my mates phone, he can see me, ive ticked the receive incoming files box, ive tried with and without the 'authentication passkey required' box ticked. I installed something 'obex inbox' but that did squat all. any ideas??
I had the same issue pal, in the "obex inbox settings" make sure that the default download directory points to an ACTUALLY EXISTING directory. If it doesn't then type in an existing path (i.e. "\Storage Card\[a folder of your choosing that actually exists]). Browsing did not work for me, i had to manually insert the path. I guess it is probably a localisation's issue, but after this little trick everything came back to normal and i could send/receive files without any problems. Hope this works for you
Hi mate! This also happened to me after installing an application that i think is not compatible with xperia and i just hard reset my phone to fix it.
Can you explain in details what you did to correct the problem? I would really appreciate it and thanks in advance.
<error in post, removed>
Where can i find the "obex inbox settings"?
Yes i have the same problem. I am not sure if i had installed a programm that isn't compatible with xperia. I hav installed some games and some progs. Can i solve the problem by unistalling the progs or have i also to do a hard reset??
PS: Sorry for my bad englisch.
it won't do you any good as that is what i have done also. let just wait for MacCarron to further explain what he did or if you can't wait just hard reset your phone but be sure to backup of your contacts first.
When im in Setting>Connections>Obex Inbox, I cannot find 'Settings'. The two soft keys at the bottom just display whatever program is running 'benneath' it. When i press on the three dots '...' next to the 'File store path' text box nothing happens. In this text box there is already the path '\Storage Card\FTP' and I have manually created a folder 'FTP' in my storage cards root directory. Did you guys have this same problem?
I still cannot receive bluetooth files!
Why can´t I find this menu "Setting>Connections>Obex Inbox" ??
You need to download it and install it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=140860&d=1230506044
It sounded really odd to us when we tried the Bluetooth, but the magic word is Beam, you need to go to Setting -> Connection ->Beam -> and tick the box "Receive all incoming beams.
No installs or downloads anything else needed for me. I think it's the same for the HTC handset, maybe for all Windows Mobile phones, correct me if I am wrong, would be interesting to find out.
I have ticked the box, but nothing happens. I still can't receive anything.
I also have tried Obex Inbox. I changed the settings, but that doens't help.
Is here somebody that has another idea instead of a hard reset? Probably unistalling all programms that aren't compatibele with Xperia.
Does anyone know how i can find out which programm is compatible and which isn't??
Please help.

as i've told you before uninstalling apps will not make any difference mate because i've tried it before until i came to the point that all that was left was the original apps in my xperia. anyway maybe others can share their experience too including a solution. as for now after the hard reset i am more careful with the apps i'm installing as reading every comments of all users and being sure that it is really compatible with wm 6.1 and xperia

Have you tried "revisiting the box"? It has a habit of unticking itself, it si on mine anyway.
I have been using the OBEX Inbox cab...
I love it!! No problems with on my X1i generic UK ROM!
On the OBEX file transfer problem here is a little insight from a problem I had!!
I installed PocketMax Phone Alarm. And I started to have the exact same Problem!! But I still could active sync too!!
What I found out, it was messing with the the OBEX Service Mask Setting!!
So to allow OBEX File transfers to work correctly.
You must make sure these setting are correct in the registry!!
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Obex\
:IsEnabled- 0x1(1)
:ObexServiceMask- 0x3(3)

Possible Solution! (If your using Phonealarm)
I've had the same problem with not being able to receive bluetooth files on my xperia.
Turns out its PhoneAlarm thats blocking them.
Under Profiles, make sure the setting "Activate IR" is on.
yes, there's no need to install anything just to receive and/or send files over bluetooth.
when you attempt to receive, do you see any pop up message prompting if you want to receive (if you have previously click yes, then it'll be default for subsequent receiving from the same device)
if your device is receiving but you ended up seeing no files in your folder, it could be that your device is running out of storage.
