Hi there,
Am having serious probs creating mms or receiving anything. New XDA mini s user, contract sim but bought xda as separate purchase. Installed MMS settings as per various forums, still nothing.
I CANT EVEN CREATE ANYTHING!!! The messaging part doesn't offer me the choice....I've tried everything and am ready to throw it in the bin.
:x
What am i doing wrong? Have i got to subscribe to data packets or somthing or tell 02 i have this new handset to get the right info?
PLEASE HHEEELLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPP!
for those who wanted to know my predicament and the answer...when i hard reset xda mini s, i thought the screen had frozen and did soft reset, but if i'd waited 1-2 mins, then the 02 settings appeared and installed.
So patience was the name of the game...Post closed!

Just got a new XDA2 and I'm having a strange problem with text messages. I send a text as a single message ( less than 160 characters ) but at the other end it arrives as three seperate texts. The message appears to be broken up randomly, often broken in mid word. This has happened with messages sent to several different people including one on O2 like me so it seems its not a cross network problem. I've tried changing the phone for a new one and that didint solve it and if I use the same sim card in my old T68i everything is fine... Anyone else experieneced this ?? Any advice very welcome as O2 dont seem to have a clue...

Hi Gavin!
Same problem here , what extras are you running? I have battery pack 2004, MS voice, Games pack 2. then in my inbox 112 sms, sent items 107. also running check notifications. Sound more like an O2 problem :evil: . Anyway let me know if you managed to resolve the problem!
MerryXmas & Happy New Year! :lol:
Kind regards :wink: Jim.
I also had this problem with my MDA II, but only once. Since then, (and even after at least 6 Hard Resets) everything seems to work out fine.
Don't know what causes this problem, but maybe it helps you to know that I had this one in spite of using t-mobile.
MDA II
I dont know if this is related but when I use ' even at less than 160 the messages become split into 2 or more. But when i remove the ' it goes back to the original unsplit form, so I avoid using ' in my sms.
It IS related, as that is the fault. If you do a search on these forums you'll find lots of posts about this...I've posted a few times myself.
You say you bought a new XDA2, I'd be interested in knowing whether this is NEW or new to YOU...in either case does the phone have IntelliPad and IntelliDialer installed? If so, then that would further back up my theory that it's the dictionary that IntelliPad, in particular, uses and causes the old unicode problem.
As advised before on these forums, try going to Inbox > Accounts > Accounts - SMS > "Send SMS messages using UniCode when necessary", and choose No on this option.
See if that helps.
Cheers
Anthony
hey guys
I had this problem for sooo long and really annoyed my girlfriend, lol!
But the solution is: Goto Settings => input => Wod Completion and turn of ' Replace text as you type'. It splits the message beacause as you type a word like "Im" it automaticlly changes it to "I'm" however the apostrophe in the middle is the curly kind n for some reason isnt supported by SMS. So as long as you send txts with striaght instead of curly apostrophes you should be fine. (well it worked for me! )

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 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!

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!

Hi,
I'm using a Sim Free Touch Diamond 2 on T-Mobile UK. Got a strange problem going on at the moment.
When someone sends me an SMS (From any network T-Mobile, Orange, O2 etc). I usually get the MMS with the picture downloaded within a couple of minutes. I can view this on the phone as you would expect. BUT, two days later I will then receive a TXT from T-Mobile saying that someone has send me a MMS, please go to http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/pmcollect - When I go and login the same picture message is waiting for me...?
Anyone else had this problem? Strange thing is that this only appears to have started happening since I returned from a trip to europe.
I've tried T-Mobile customer service - all they can suggest is that this is probably a setting on the handset....
Can anyone help or throw any light on this?
Cheers,
A.
Hi
I am having the same problem.and also experiancing sms coming through late or not at all. however i actualy work for T-Mobile.. and know its not a problem with the D2..it is more likely network issues. but am not aware of any issues..i will speak to technical next time i can and will let you know what they say..i is starting to bug me as well but it is some thing that started for me back in June and i was using my D1 at the time..
Hi there,
I have a similar problem.
When I receive a MMS I only get a sms/text notification saying that I have received a MMS and that I have to go to the t-mobile website. I can't view the mms on my phone.
Is this because I need to install a program to view the MMS?
I am able to send MMS, I just sent a MMS to myself and I received it without a problem, but as a sms/text message, not the MMS itself.
Really annoying!
Hoping to get an answer.
Cheers!
It sound like a problem with your settings...
Go to the t-mobile website :
http://support.t-mobile.co.uk/help-and-support/index?page=home&cat=SOFTWAREDOWNLOADS
and send the settings to the phone once installed do a soft reset.
you should install both MMS and internet settings...
if this still doesnt work then you may have to try setting them up manualy ..
Heres a link to the manual on how to do it and the settings you need:
http://support.t-mobile.co.uk/help-and-support/index?page=selectphone&phone=HA176
if that still doesnt work you will need to call customer service there maybe a problem with the settings on your account. tell them you have done the above steps cos they will want to do them again with you and if you get someone in the phillipines this not a easy task.. they should transfer you to technical support and they will sort it..
any more problems just ask as i have worked for T-Mobile for nearly 4 years..
Thank you!!
It worked!! Thank you very much!
The first option didn't work as I have a dutch number. I did try to send the mms options to my phone via the dutch t-mobile site but they don't have the settings yet for this phone!
I then googled for "t-mobile mms instellingen" (settings) and I found them. Did it manually and now it works like a charm.
For the dutch people interested, here is the site with the settings:
https://www.t-mobile.nl/persoonlijk...lgestelde-vragen.aspx?q=algemene instellingen
Thanks for pointing me in that direction!!
Cheers!
You normally get that text about going to the website to get your MMS when the network thinks your phones not MMS compatible or you don't have MMS messaging live on your acc.
Hi sorry only just getting back..
managed to speak to technical and what they said is they need 5 examples.
date time number and postcode of area you where in.
so they can raise the problem and get your mms profile reset and should then be fine.
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
