I lost the ability to do MMS? - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

So yeah, I gussied-up my M500 with a bigstorage rom from the ftp and it's pretty hot.
Thing is, even after installing pretty much all but the most offensive-looking cabs from the orange ext-rom, I have no MMS functionality.
I've got the access point settings just fine, but in messaging there is no MMS account, nor any way to add one.
Is it a .cab that I'm missing? There /are/ a couple that refuse to install, says they're missing a file somewhere in the Windows directory?

Man, it seems forum search is an ancient art unknown to the people of today.

I did not install Caller ID, but only installed an older version 2.0.0.x from an older extrom.
For version 2.0.x: Remember that Pocket Outlook has to run always in order to receive MMS. So if you use some kind of taskmanager, prevent poutlook.exe from being closed (this can be configured in SPB Plus)
Cheers,
Mundl

OK, so let's try this out!
Also: I totally searched! I guess my search-fu is weak ;_;
[edit] All seems to be working, ish. Though a message someone claims to have sent me last night is in limbo or something? I guess if the phone doesn't know what's what then a MMS sent to it is lost forever?

Flash messenger v1.5 released!

Hello guys,
Know you've been waiting for this and its been a long time as we were busy on working with our new site.
We are proud to release Flash Messenger v1.5 with contacts support. Feel free to comment here or there in our forums.
http://www.PocketPC-Live.com/flash-messenger.html
CartyStudios, Inc.
Flash Messenger v1.5 for POCKET PC
This is a small software for your POCKET PC, that helps you in sending Class0 sms, where the message on delivery, will directly Flash on the recipient’s screen. The message will not get into inbox and hence cannot be saved. However, some devices can save the message.
Whereas in some devices (Recipient’s device) like O2 Atom, Sony Ericson.., the sender’s number is also withheld.
sounds great, but what does the above mean, can i send to any phone or just pocket pc's ...
Not working with WM5 or something is missing. Installed 3 times but no luck
great thing to add contacts working just fine in wm2003 on my magiciam.. the sms can be sent to any sms capable receiver, inly thing is that sms will look a little bit stranger
yeah this does seem a bit pointless considering you wont always know what type of phone the person on the other end will have and how the sms will be recived.
Guys, did you try installing to the default folder? Program files\flash messenger? Still getting the security error?
I've installed it in program files and moved to storage, works really well
is it support Hermes?

Oz Cab

Does anyone have the oz cab that is compatible with WM6? I deleted mine off, but have decided that IM+ and mundu take up too much resources for the little I use them. I have unlimited text messaging with my family plan, so I would like to go ahead and reload oz, but don't want to have to do a hard reset in order to do so.
Any help would be much appreciated. I searched, but couldn't find it.
Thanks.
Attached!
Thank you. Unfortunately, now I can't get the darn thing to work. It keeps saying communication error and to check my settings.

I had the same problem, what you need to do is uninstall it, and install it to your device. If you had it installed to your storage it will continue to give the error. If you install to device it will work just fine. Hope that helps!
If you want it to work you're goin to have to hard reset and let the T-Mo customizations run. Remember Oz IM runs off you're SMS and not a dedicated internet app, so there will be some settings that would have to be tweaked in order to sync it. I don't know if anyone has made it work or even tried to yet, but there are other options out there. There's IM+ and Agile but you'll have to purchase them after trial period, and there's also imov and palringo which are both free, but have their share of problems. All run on internet so it's much better than sms based.
I personally use a combo of palringo and imov. Palringo is better looking and more feature rich than imov but disconnects frequently even when there's service. Also, as of right now, there's a problem with switching between different chats. It doesn't save your conversion once you exit out and there's no workaround at the moment. Imov basically has no features, is very basic in looks, and has ads that take up about one-third of your screen, but it is much more stable. You can leave it running overnight.
Hope this helps
You don't have to do a hard reset and let the Tmo extras run, I am running my wing debranded with the cab re-installed to my device, and it works for me with no problems. Although you can use the other programs papito mentions if you have a data plan. If you just have a text msg plan use the oz cab.
how do i choose to install on the device? it doesnt give me an option. i use 8525 btw
or are you guys talking about miucro sd card cuz i dont have one

thx alot ive been lookin everywhere for this.
Whats Is OZ Pocket PC? Just got my wing and I'm looking to trick it out.
Thanks
Okay, I think I have this OZ communicator figured out somewhat. It seems that there is a registry key that makes a connection to a site that (I would assume) handles the IM/SMS exchange for the OZ IM Client (HKCU\Software\OZ Communications\Configuration\1\Network) which points at http://aol.cwmim.com:1171 I would think that it is the conversion here that creates the text message charge. I would think that t-mobile would have a similar site to put in here that handles conversion for their network. Anyone have a t-mobile phone with OZ, and can pass that out to us?

I have a t-mobile wing with a custom rom on it. I wanted to install Oz because i wanted to have the instant messengers. I do have unlimited text and the basic data plan. When I installed the program, it gave me a communication error and to check the settings but it also sent me a text message...which I didnt understand. How can I get the program to work? I have it installed on the device memory already.

Is it possible to send MMS on the Sprint Touch?

I have been trying to get my Touch to send and receive MMS but I can't get it to work. I have tried every hack and regedit on PPCgeeks but have had no luck. Does anyone here know of a way to get MMS working on the Touch?
Thanks in advance guys.
PS, here is a list of all of the software I have installed on my Touch. Maybe it will help someone know what is causing my problem here:
HTC Streaming Media
HTC Action Screen
PocketCM Keyboard 0.12
Happy Tapping Keyboard
thisguyinoc CubeConfig
OZ Instant Messaging
Weatherpanel
Resco Keyboard Pro
Resco Explorer
Resco Registry Add-in
WM6 Palm Threaded SMS
Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool
HTC Audio Manager
HTC Home Customizer
HTC Home Plugin Kaizer 6 Tab
Hope that helps and I hope someone here can help me.
Using the built in SMS app and also trying Palm threaded SMS, I am not able to send or receive MMS at all unless it has been sent to my yahoo account and automatically downloads the attachments. Anybody have any idea how to bypass this?
I have tried this hack here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=621
But with no luck.
Does noone here care enough about MMS to try to get it working on our Touch's?

I already tried that but with no luck. Thanks for the suggestion though. I have it downloaded 2 times on my computer for 2 different versions, the new one and the old one.
Unfortunately neither of them worked for me. I think for now I can live without MMS but I think this is a valid topic for discussion and something that needs to be remedied more effectively. A custom ROM with ArcSoft MMS 4.2.8.1 would probably do it. I used to have a T-Mobile MDA-AKA-HTC Wizard and I would flash custom ROMs every so often and all of them had working MMS built right into ROM.
I would like to have MMS because my fiance has MMS on her Sprint Upstage and being able to send and receive MMS from her would be nice.
I think it is a project that should be looked at a little more.
did your wizard allow you to send mms from text before?
i use email to phone email to send pics and such from the touch..

Yes my Wizard had Arcsoft composer 4.2.8.1 with MMS and SMS together in one application but separated and it did allow me to send MMS without having to use e-mail at all.
I did manage to get my Touch sending MMS without using e-mail though. I just performed a hard-reset and then installed the MMS quick fix from PPCGeeks and it works now but MMS won't go directly to the phone they're being sent to, they have to download the MMS to their phone through a link in their SMS.
I think that if someone can cook a ROM with ArcSoft Composer 4.2.8.1 the same way it was cooked into the Wizard ROM I was using, we would have no problems with MMS. I just don't have any knowledge of building ROMs and I have tried to learn before but I just can't seem to pick it up.

hey, i know this doesnt sound like the best method to solve your issue... when i first got my touch (sprint) i tried the arcsoft from ppcgeeks and i kept getting an error. wouldnt send. problems connetions or sumthin. i dd a hard rest, went back to original unboxed settings (no apps what so ever) and i installed arcsoft... did a soft reset, still had a problem, waited about an hour, and boom it worked... idk what it did but i installed everything else that i had and it still works perfectly... good luck!

YES your correct i did misunderstand considering in your first post and the rest you didnt say you HAD acro installed.. you said your wizard had it..
anyways.. you hard reset and first installed acrosoft and now it works?
Does the palm threaded app work with the touch well.. ? could you please pm me the palm app.. i don't have the wm5 version.

Yes I hard reset and then reinstalled the arcsoft MMS app from PPCGeeks and then I was able to send MMS. The recipient I sent them to only received a link to the file I sent that she could download from the internet but I was able to send the image to the sprint server for her to download.
Once I had that installed, I then reinstalled Palm Threaded SMS and my MMS still worked fine.

It works reasonably well. There are a few things I would change about it if I knew how. For example: The panel where you see what you are typing is covered by the onscreen keyboard and the the text messages display in a linear fashion with the newest at the bottom, also covered by the onscreen keyboard. Also the installation wipes out the outlook SMS app and the registry is kinda glitchy. It will sometimes not show the notification icon or will not show the counter on the home plugin and sometimes none at all.
If it was up to me and I knew how to modify the code, I would invert the application with the text input panel at the top and newest text messages displaying in a linear fashion from top to bottom. I would also fix the registry so that it is more stable.
Personally, I do not have these skills as I think that it would make a great addition to our Vogues.
You can find a link to the download for the WM6 version under one of my posts in the Vogue Upgrading thread.
For me
Sprint ONLY allows the receiving mms from others VIA a sprint website link...
Its not up to an app, thats just how sprint does it...
Is there any way to get MMS on the Bell Mobility version of the Touch? My plan includes unlimited picture and text messaging and would like to use it with my wife who is using a "regular" phone.
im with bell in canada as well, and have been dying to try out mms, but i just cant seem to get it, i have the unlimited data plan so i dont mind using a "threaded" service, but im kind of a noob at the whole "threaded" thing....but yes, if someone could possibly help me out with installing mms on a bell touch that would b great... i tried a few months ago with arcsoft, and unlocked the registry and added new bell settings, but i dont know why, they just didnt work either because the settings were wrong or something else...any advice/input would be greatly appreciated
i have the arcsoft mms app installed on my touch and it sends the pictures... but no one ever receives them... any ideas?
i had the same thing on my mogul and it worked fine... but now...
pleaseeeeee!
I have a working CAB install of Arcsoft 3.0.26.12C that I pulled from the Alltel Touch. It has been confirmed to work on the Sprint Mogul, and the Sprint Touch. You can find it on my site by clicking here.

MMS on Verizon

Hiya, i currently have an xv6800 on VZW with an unlimited data plan.
I have dcd's 3.2.6 and radio version 3.42.50
Everything is going great, its fast, gps active, except I am currently unable to send or receive picture messages. I cant find any options for this
I have the verizon carrier cab installed
Just curious if i am missing a certain cab file or if someone could enlighten me on this?
Sorry if this has been posed before (I searched and only found sprint related issues)
Thank you very much for your time,
Cody
I was actually wondering this for the longest time, too. Before (I don't remember what rom I had at the time), when I would receive an MMS, I wouldn't be able to download the images or whatever was included, but at least it would inform me. Now it isn't even listed under the messaging accounts (I have titan reloaded 1.1). Is it not possible for Verizon?
Same Here
The only option I have is to send it via email. I have even tried to set the camera setting to MMS size but still I can not find an option to send out a MMS, who know how many incoming MMS's I have missed.
-Regards

I now have Verizon MMS - tested to send and receive, but my SPB Pocket Plus does not show that I have received a message (but I do get a notice and an icon in the top of WinMo 6.1 - and new MMS's only show the persons phone number, not thier name), nor does winmo 6.1 correctly thread MMS like it does for SMS. Don't know if it is buggy or SPB does not like the .cab file?

Help... no 3G access...???

Hi all. Bad news for a first post. I've been reading and reading and researching to get a better understanding, as the most experience I've had with altering phone software is modding a Samsung Blackjack 2 for awhile.
I have the US AT&T HTC Tilt 2 (Rhodium). I will be as specific as possible - I cannot access the internet (no web access, no email access, etc.) I can send and receive sms messages and send and receive phone calls. The strange thing is I can send and receive mms messages (I thought they used 3G?)
Here's the specifics BEFORE I had the problem:
WinMo 6.5, latest framework, no mods of any sort. No problems of any kind.
AFTER:
I installed the HARDspl with the hopes of soon putting a ROM on my phone (I liked what you folks have to offer). I installed Opera Mobile 10, set it as my default, installed cleanRAM, ran it twice. I installed LockDevice. I installed mobilematt's Crystal Clock, and an HDWALL cab. I did the three background regedits to get the HDWALL to work properly by using the Mobile Registry Editor.
I properly soft reset and restarted along the way as prompted. I have no other extra programs that weren't mentioned.
The error message told me it couldn't connect, with the option of checking my settings or dismissing the error. It told me to reset my device specific to my manufacturer... etc.
---------------------
FUNNY ENOUGH, I just restarted the phone to try again... and it worked. The error is not there, and I can access the internet on IE and Opera 10, check my email, etc.
A FLUKE?
Did you just get the phone? When I got mine I had the same problem, I upgraded from a Tilt to a Tilt2 and I had to get a new sims card, my sister also had the same problem when she upgraded to the ATT Fuze from the Pantec matrix, everything worked but no 3g internet connection
