I just loaded the cingular cab as well which iw as sure i already had the cab installed. anyway how can i get that loaded or working. and yes i have searched around and cant find the answer.
TIA
never mind. forgot i didnt install any of the crap on the rom upgrade. and had to install it from the rom2 files.
basicly i installed default_mp_mmsautodisco and default_mp_shortcut_mms
hey, you might be messing the ExtROM on your device that is supposed to include the MMS composer. go to start settings system and device info to read the ROM and ExtROM versions. if the ExtROM doesn't show then you nead to hard reset the device and if it doesn't show re install the upgrade.

I have posted this over at MoDaCo but i thought i would give it a go here as well. :wink:
I stupidly installed MS Global Contact Access (GCA) for PPC on my K-JAM to see if it would work (which it did) but it has caused other problems so i had to uninstall it. This is probably due to MS still not releasing a WM5 compatible version of GCA.
Now, when i open the messaging app and select "MMS Configuration" from the menu instead of the MMS Configuration screen it opens a New Meeting request.
Would anyone know how i can get my MMS config back without a hard reset? Is the setup for MMS in one of the cabs in the extended ROM or is it built into the main System ROM
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Chris
You can download a cab file from club imate for mms, sms settings.
If you know how to access your Ext ROM, you can have a look there and 'guess' the CAB that is resposible for the MMS settings. It should fix the problem.
Mayby its a dumb question, but where's my MMS Inbox?
I've got the new Imate ROM and installed a few T-Mobile NL CABS, al the connection settings are there, even the MMS settings (I checked them with the settings on the T-Mobile site), but I can't send or receive MMS messages. I only see the SMS and Outlook inbox, no MMS Inbox.
I also had that problem, and could only rectify it by hard reset and allow the extended rom to re-install.
i tried installing the cabs manually, tried downloading previous fixes, all to no avail.
you may also find that you cannot create a pop account for simple email, mine always failed on step 4.
alas, i cannot tell you anything else but to hard reset and allow the full rom to install.... sorry.
What extended ROM do you have?
latest released version from imate.
i used the original, then the beta sneaked release, then the current.
the original caused hiccups, but there was a patch, but the patch didnt work on the most recent released version.
Rom 1.30.76
ExtRom 1.30.164
Radio 1.09
Tnx, i'll give it a shot...
Hi
I think I have a possible solution. Take a look at the attached file. It was in the o2 Active CAB file, and apart from setting up the connections, etc, it also enables MMS in outlook.
If someone can make sense of this, please help.

Did you install the Ext ROM?
Well, I had the same problem with my T-mobile phone which I used for O2. I did not install the Ext ROM of my unit and there isn't any option for MMS. I solve it by digging into the Ext Rom and find one of the CAB (guess by its name) to install. And.. it works. I think you have to set some of the MMS settings which you can get from the web for your servic eprovider.
Yes, but I installed it using hte o2 Corporate mode. It adds the MMS account only when using Basic version. But the problem with that is you get loads of o2 active crap....
Thanks
Hey guys I've just hard reset my mini.I soft reset at the point of it needing to restart so I didn't load all the o2 stuff.
only thing now is I have no mms account I can switch to on my list anymore. the mms configeration menu is still there though. can anyone lean me some advice )
Just load the cab from the Extended ROM which has MMS in its name.
sorry to be dim I've searched but can seem to find it, could you give me a path location to follow please ) Cheers
On the wiki for Wizard http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Wizard
there are instructions on how to unhide your Extended ROM.
Do this, then you will have a \Extended Rom directory. There should be a cab file in there O2???????MMS??????.cab just click on this to run it
the link for it on that site doesnt work mate
...ok.
I just got a TyTN. On my HTC Universal, there was a MMS console or something...forget what they call it...
But it was flawless and there isn't one on the TyTN from what I can see...
Can someone help me out? It MIGHT be my general non-familiarity of the device so I don't see it...but I don't see any programs or settings that even come close to referencing it...
Thanks...
If I understand the questions correctly
From messaging.
Menu
Tools
Options
Select MMS
You have to install the Shortcut-MMS.cab from ExtendedROM.
I for one, didn't install it, cause the whole messanging application (SMS and E-Mail) starts much faster without MMS installed.
At the moment I'm searching for a proper replacement for MMS that's not that lazy.
Missing MMS Menu on HTC TyTn
Hi,
I have the same problem on my HTC TyTn. In fact, MMS menu is missing. I've read the answer but I don't know where I could find shortcut-mms.cab.
Could you help me, please.
Jee
unhide the extendedrom as described in the extrom unlocker thread. then you should find a file *shortcut*mms*.cab in the dir /ExtendedROM
Hi,
Thanx for answering. I've tried what it explained, but nothing happen. My phone coming from SFR (vodaphone). Maybe there is something else to do.
Regards
ROM Version 1.23.163.3
ROM Date: 06/18/06
Radio Version: 1.16.00.00
Protocole: 32.53.7018.01W
Me, too, and I think I've got it figured out..
I have most of this problem solved but need one additional piece of info (at bottom); maybe someone can fill that in for me.
I got a new 8525 from Cingular.com the day they came out. The letter 'A' stuck so I had to exchange it for a new one. The first 8525 I had showed the MMS directory just fine but the second one they gave me did not. I'm not aware of any differences in the way I set them up or how this could be, but MMS has been missing from my second 8525 since I first fired it up. Cingular support was no help.
Here's what you need to do to fix it:
(1) You need to unhide the Extended ROM. Info on doing that can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=283750
Note that in my situation my phone was already SIM unlocked, and I found that I did not have to CID unlock my device in order to fix this problem. Information on what the difference is between SIM unlock and CID unlock can be found here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SimUnlock
(2) Now, when you open File Explorer, you'll see a new folder listed called "Extended ROM." Open that folder and you'll see a list of .cab files that can install various things for you.
Run the MMS installation .cab file called "MT_Shortcut-MMS-Hermes" to install the MMS function that somehow got missed in the initial setup. I found that I was not able to install this program to Extended ROM, and I did not try to install it to the storage card, but it installed in my Device memory just fine.
Open up Messaging, and you should now see the MMS folder, unless you soft reset, in which case you have to re-install. In my case, no configuration of the MMS function was needed, and MMS works just fine.
QUESTION: Whenever I soft reset my phone, I lose the MMS function again and have to re-install from the .cab. How do I make MMS a permanent feature of my phone?
I hope this helps folks get at least as far as I've managed and maybe someone else can help finish answering this problem. Thanks in advance.
OK...
Let's say a stupid asshole erased his ext-ROM and is now missing the whole Shortcut-MMS.cab .
Is it possible to flash back only the ext-ROM ?
Can someone send the .cab to the asshole (meaning ME!) ??
Thanks
