HELP - Not receiving Text Messages - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi,
I have sent myself several text messages from my providers website ( vodafone NZ).
They do not come thru to my device ( WM5, Jas Jar : see below ).
I have reinstalled the ROM, and re loaded back up data via Sprite backup software. Still not working.
Any ideas where to start to investigate this issue ?
Thanks

When did it start?
Does the same happen with other people sending you messages?
Can you send messages to others?
Exact steps taken and observations of any errors that appear, if any?
Does it happen if you do a hard reset but then DON'T use Spite to restore data? Ie start from a fresh install.

check the sent items in the vodafone website, I have had problems with the vodafone.co.nz webbased system as well, the sent items folder will tell you if they have actually been sent, its been buggy for quite some time now

Back to normal now, I did a hard reset and functions turned back on with Test messages, then I installed my back up without the email load. I reloaded all email setup manually again !

I-Mate Jam Stops to receive SMS !!!

I need help my JAM stops to receive sms . I have try with 2 different rom versions (ma_cdlsku1_wwe_10300_143_10100_ship)& (ma_cdlsku12_wwe_10300_163_10100_ship) but the Hard Reset is the only solution.
The bad news are the recover (before & after the hard reset) not fix the problem .
Any help to recover my system or fix the [email protected] problem..
I have try all the backup software exept the new spb clone.
Thanks in advance …
Make sure that - if you're using Spb Pocket Plus - you add the SMS program to Exceptions under the Close button menu.

i dont have install it !!
mine does it too while in a game it comes up with the timer windows thing in the sqaure box till the txt is received so its not really a problem
The problem is Sprite Backup and that you have an old version at least older than 3.1.3! Older versions of Sprite Backup cause that problem after a restore! Try the latest versiom 3.1.4
nowt to do with that its just how the phone works as i dont even use prite backup :roll:
I had the same problem.
Finally I found out that the reason was ActiveSync.
To be sure try hard reset and then choose backup everything but sms folder (or even e-mail folder). And to get rid of that problem in ActiveSync settings mark not to syncronize e-mail (or something like that).

MMS inbox ?

hi guys, can any of you help me and let me know how to get MMS INBOX back? I have upgraded to the newest Chinese Dopod ROM, I have installed the O2 MMS cab that I usually use on the English ROMs to show the MMS inbox back, but it installs but it still does not show up on the Chinese ROM.
Is there any reg hack I can do to make the MMS inbox appear again?
Or is there any other cab files out there I can try to make it show up?
Restoring the mail database after a ROM upgrade causes the error you described. When I restored my SMS/email with SPB Bakcup after I upgearded to AKU2 I found that my MMS inbox was missing.
I tried to find a way of fixing it, but honestly? nothing works. So I made a full backup, backed my sms with Jeyo. Restored everything BUT the SMS from spb backup, and used Jeyo to restore them.
I haven't restored my mail database with the backup as I do not keep messgaes anyway, so that is not my problem. As I said the cab file works perfect with the English ROM, just this Chinese ROM I cannot get the MMS inbox back.
PLEASE ANYONE?
I am willing to do it manually via registry if someone lets me know how
Have you tried launching the camera application, taking a picture and use option Send | Send by MMS?
This "unhid" my mms folder (hidden by latest O2 rom on my Exec) - no idea how or why :wink:
nope doesn't do it for me but thanks for trying anyway
try this
try this file
tried that, didn't change things but thanks for trying to help anyway. I think the main problem is the Chinese ROM system files are located in different folders to that of the English ROM therefore these cab files don't work. I think the only way is to do it manually, but I do not know the registry settings to do this unfortunately

HELP - SMS Bug/Problem

Hi there.
First, I don't know if this is the right place to open this thread, so if it isn't I apologise...
I'm having a slight problem in my wizard... a few days ago, I accidentaly erased some sms's I wans't supposed to, so I went to the Deleted Items folder, and copied the sms I wanted to save... in the meantime I recieved 3 more sms's...
I go to my inbox, and I can't see those... but I keep with the "warning" I have 3 new sms's, or SMS/MMS: 3 Unread, if you prefer...
after that I recieved lot's more sms's and they all appear like SMS/MMS: 4(or 5 or 6 it depends)...
I allready tried to reset the wizard, but it didn't work... is there anything I can do, besides hard-reseting or installing a new ROM ?
I use the ROM WM6.1 CLEAN & FAST from JvdSpank.
Thanks
Ok, problem solved.
I did a backup with PIMbackup, erased all sms's and then restored them... it worked...
sorry for any inconvenience.
thanks

[Help] Rom 1.66 and sms :(

I, i already searched a lot for my problem, and I do not know where exactly post my problem, so I'll post it here in hope for a litle help
Here it goes: I have update my wwe Leo to 1.66 rom a few days ago, and because I have tons of paches installed that I downloaded here ( by the way, thanks alot for your explendid work ) , I used SPB Backup to restore all the stuff.
When I finished to flash the phone, everything was fine, but after re-load the backup, the sms list has become a mess. When I open the sms list, the characters are HUGE, and I can't even read the text. I have put the character size to the minimum, and it does almost anything.... :'(
Is there a problem with the backup, or should I hard-reset the phone and install all the programs manually?
Thanks...

Yes, that´s the way.
What I would do is to hard reset your phone then restore th SPB Backup file as follows:
- Go to Customized Restore and click on it
- Then select PIM, Emails and My Documents
- DO NOT tick the System Data option
Restore as normal, soft reset you phone and see. Any problems, come back.
WB
Thanks a lot, I'll do it like that
It will be a mess to re-install all the programs, but it will be worth

Problem restoring SMS with PIMBackup on Alex-V ROM (WM6.5 23529)

Hi,
I just flashed my Orbit 2 with the W6.5 ROM from Alex-V. Followed the howto from
fktsndr (Thread ID: 384084). Then I restored my SMS via PIMBackup. I just chose SMS to restore. However I got weird results. The SMS have wrong date stamps, cut text, wrong mapping of SMS body text to sender. When I go to my SMS folder it seems that their is an ongoing process which adds messages. After a while the system hangs. If I reset after 10 mins. I just see the O2 Splash screen and system hangs, so I have to do a hard reset.
I' ve got around 1500 SMS. Restoring contacts and call history works fine.
I tried wm6.5 German com5 23529 alex-V (flip clock)_10.02_input 2.1.rar and wm6.5 German com5 23529 alex-V 10.02 input 2.1 lite.rar
Hope somebody can help me. Thanks in advance!
Best regards
Andreas

Why you make a new thread for that problem...for things like this...my rom thread is the right place for this...!!!!
but anythere...i don´t have problems with this...but can you try install pim backup new...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705
Hope it help....
edit: have you flashed like this...the way you flash is very important
If you have problems after flash my rom....restart....flash Orginal rom + hard reset if you see the calibration screen after that flash my rom also with a hard reset....after a complete boot a soft reset
edit 2: in your previous rom have you threaded sms or normal ...??
edit 3: try a other backup file...and is it the same with a other file..??
Thank you for the quick answer!
I'll repeat the flashing and I will carefully follow your instructions. Hope this helps. Actually since you have the same device. I come from W6.1 (original O2 branded) where I had threaded SMS. When I try other backup files or even I use the same file again I got different results. All are weird.

mmhh..strange...so please try a reflash with the flash instructions....it´s very very important to flash this way...i have also problems if i flash any rom and make it not like the explained way...
but if the problem after flash is the same...try to reinstall pimbackup...and let me know...
edit: have tried again and restore a pim backup file...and it´s ok...no problems...
So I followed your instruction, but same result. The step where I am not sure is after I did the the hard reset after installing the original rom. You wrote I should then flash your rom. Does it matter whether I boot with original rom, connect with ActiveSync and then flash according to the instructions of the Flash Tool or shall I go into boot loader and then flash?
It all sounds strange for me. Because according to my experience with other computer stuff it either works or it doesn't. Strange behaviour like restoring half the sms on a weird way and at same time Windows, Internet, and all the tools, I tested, operating (slow) but reliable doesn't sound like a flash problem as more as an incompatibility of PIM Backup with W6.5. May be the bug occurs only with a certain number of SMS.
Problem nailed down: I figured out that I cannot restore my SMS even on the original ROM so it seems to be more a problem with a corrupted archive.
Fortunately I have a fallback with a dumped ROM respectively a Sprite Backup. Cross fingers that that works. ****y PIM Backup.

In my case PIMbackup is not trully wm6.5 compliant. I think it has a high peak of resources consumption so sometimes is simply gets the ppc frozen, At least in my case, the same backup file gets loaded or freezes the ppc, depending on how many things load at the same time, etc. Most of the times after a soft reset everything is there so it is not a big issue in my case.
Have you tried MyPhone? I do not use any more neither PIMBackup nor ActiveSync since I tried MyPhone ... (I resisted since windows software tends to turn my skin red!)

i use both...myphone is nice and all but you need connection...ive tested pimbackup to the max and have yet found any issue...currently it restores more than 300 contacs, more than 4000 sms, plus emails, logs, history...it seems lockedup but its working...it uses alot the cpu so it may seem locked but its still working...great software...but as always use whatever works...
cheers
I have found out, that for some reasons PIM Backup is not working correctly all the time. During Backup it throws sometimes some messages, that it cannot access certain files. After that it ends normally but I cannot find the backup file anywhere.
In the end I managed somehow to restore my SMS. However I did this using Megan ROM. Therefore I restored the original system, did the backup again as plain text (not binary), had contacts and SMS in anextra file. Flashed the new ROM and restored everything. Now I am too annoyed of all the flashing, so that I won't test it with Alex's ROM again.

I tried a hell lot of ways , but finally adb pull worked for me
In Recovery mode with data mounted use the pull command
adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db
Try it as the last option if nothing works
