I've upgraded to the new AT&T ROM for the 8525. Yea, I know, I don't know how to upgrade any others; I'm too damn new to this.
Anyway, prior to the upgrade, with all the settings, I was able to send/receive email from Gmail. Now, I can only receive. When it tries to send, it says something like Ensure you have Data Coverage or a Plan or something like that. Yes, I have unlimited data and settings should be set. I would take screen captures, but I don't know how. Any ideas or solutions on why I can get but not send?
Thanks
best guess. search froum for "AT&T cab". possibly new rom upgrade didnt include all settings. download, copy to ppc. and clickity click.

Phone: MDA
Provider: T-Moble
OS: 2.21
Has anyone else noticed that with the T-Mobile MDA, unsent messages (due to lack of signal) go to DRAFTS (which must be manually sent later) instead of being held in OUTBOX for when I have signal?
I actually upgraded my ROM thinking that would resolve the issue but it does not. Perhaps there is a registry tweak I need.
Any help/ideas would be most appreciated.
yeah, i have to agree its bloody stupid. what idiot thought that would be a good idea ffs.
a reg hack would be great.
Phone: MDA
OS: 2.21
Provider: T-Mobile
I am curious now how many other people have this problem, particularly Wizard users. If this is something specific to T-Mobile I might try another provider's rom to eliminate the problem.
Is this sms or outlook msgs (or both). I know that sms goes to drafts (not fixed in any WM version I know) but outlook email should go to outbox. I'm using the cingular wizard.[/quote]
Its SMS messages. So this is a function of Windows Mobile? Gawd what a stupid feature!
i must agree i wish they would go to outbox i hate having to go back to drafts and resend half the time i forget about them
It is a stupid idea, but surely something that could be fixed by a kindly app ?
I don't know about anyone else, but I've never had a phone that automatically sends when there is signal. It always saves to drafts and I have to send it later.
mine sends auto if there is signal.. but if its over 6txt msg long it sends to drafts cuz there is a timeout on it.. if we can figure out how to change the time-out or attempts made maybe we can come up with some sort of hack that will make it keep tryin until it goes thru!
My nokia 3650 always used to try to resend any unsent messages at a specific interval. I think you could even input how many times to try to re send.
i have it too, and the same thing was true when i was on wm2003se
it would be so much bettre if it auto sent once a signal picked up

Any bog-standard SonyEricsson or Nokia will do this. It's such as simple thing you'd assume MS would get it right, on what is after all version 5 of their phone OS.

I had a SE T610 and a S700i and both of them would just say "Sending Failed" and save the message in drafts, which do not auto-send.
Every time i get a multimedia messages it always says something about memory and not being able to obtain it.... how can i change this so i can see the attachments and pictures on my WM5 device????

Um, no disrespect intrended, but how on God's green earth are we supposed to have any clue since you provided absolutely no information about your phone, ROM, service provider, applications installed, whether you can send MMS, etc etc etc.?
Give more, get more. Get it?

i'm on cingular i havn't tried sending and I get the mms but the pictures wont download
I'm assuming this is a stock Cingular ROM them (as you still haven't mentioned that). So IPL/SPL read 2.25 when you reset your phone and its starting up? If thats the case, then you may do better calling Cingular and asking them directly as they can step you through things right over the phone.
If you want us to help, then you have to tell us more as we can't see your device or guess at what is happening. Why won't the pictures download? Do you get an error, or some message? What does the phone do? What exactly do you see and what are you tapping and what happens?
This happened to me after i upgraded my rom to ANY WM6 rom.
I could not get any MMS messages to work in or out.
I had to revert back to Tmobiles stock wm5 rom cause i need my MMS messaging.
Custom ROMs (for the most part) do not setup GPRS or MMS. Have you run the GPRS and MMS cabs to setup this function for Cingular? Here are the two I run after I upgrade. As Dr. P has said, store these on your SD card so that you always have them with you. This can save you, if you have to do a hard reset and you aren't around your computer.
I was wondering if there were any other mms hacks that work on the mogul other than the widely known one at ppcgeeks, cause it only works when it wants to and I would like to try a different one.
Lately there have been server issues where it just doesn't want to send any picturemails... heh, seems like Sprint is try to crack down on it
yea, and that sucks cause I tend to send alot of pics to other peoples cell phones that dont have email on their phones, or dont know how to use it.
well I figured something out!, I turned off my data conection and turned on my wifi(thanks to my wireless antenna) and triend sending again and it went off without a hitch! Damn Sprint!
Hmm, I don't even have MMS in my Mogul Inbox apps, only Text Message, Outlook, and my email account. How do you guys send MMS then?
IN my Cingular 8525, I have MMS in the Inbox apps.

I found a workaround/fix that has it working.
Change you DNS from Sprint's to Open DNS.
see : http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6...et-access.html
Then it should work every time.
here use this thread, it works.

mms works fine for me, had to softboot twice but always had to softboot twice with wisebar on my 6700, out of curiosity why would sprint want to prevent you from sending picmail when you are paying for power vision? "seems like Sprint is try to crack down on it"

Not sure if it's just me, but with that program you have to already know the person's number to enter it in? Is there a way to pull up the address book and select a number?

Wow...can't believe that I missed that!!! Thanks a bunch!
What about Alltel's ROM... they offer picture/video mail on their 6800s... can anyone extract the cabs out of it??
I don't know about anyone else, but the MMS app seemed to really slow down my phone... sometimes the messaging application would freeze up entirely when it was installed!
So, I found that at least for Sprint users, you can send an email to <phone number>@pm.sprint.com, and it will show up as an MMS message on that user's phone!
This is a much more robust way to send pic mms, and my phone is much happier now without the MMS app.

they are not cabs to extract, it is not installed from the extended_rom but instead part of the ROM.
if someone else knows what files and regs are needed i could extract them and build a cab. i had considered trying to track them down and/or pulling out files/regs used in the mms cab from ppcgeeks. i could try this but i have a feeling the mms builtin to alltels has stuff all over that would be hard to track down.
it is arcsoft mms though just looks like a diff version. installing the ppcgeeks arcsoft mms cab on alltel does not produce working mms and this is part of my feeling that this version is layed out quite differently.

This is the exact same thing I experienced with the mms cab from arcsoft. My phone was sluggish and whenever I tried to go into my text message shortcut it would take up to a minute to load up.
I'll go without for now too, until we can find a way around this.
This is the OLD WAY
I use the old MMS Cab file from Verizon 6700. It's very simple to make it work. First install the Cab , then the cab text menu. after the soft reset, just go into the Arcsoft files registry and change the Enableserveredit ot 1 , default is 0. Once that is done, go to the MMS config and change to sprintpcs and the address also to sprintpcs. then thats it. This is just a brieft description if anyone wants to try it.
If anyone want me to attached the file and go step by step, just post the reply here and i'll get to it. Reason is because i don't know if everyone knows about it or not, so i won't waste time posting the files.
You will have an MMS in Messaging, YOU can send it from there, but when you received MMS pix/video it is received in the Text Message account. Basically this MMS account enable you to send MMS pix/video and receiveds then in your Text Messaging account. When receiving MMS, it will send you a link to the pix/video directly. I know on the Alltel, it takes you to the sprint messaging website and you have to log in to see pix/video. The setup above as i described, takes you directly to the pix/video and do not need to log in.
FYI:....send MMS using phone numbers not e-mail addy
Right now after doing the resolution hack, my MMS won't send out, giving me an error that says my image size of 16k or whatever is over the 0k limit? I can change my resolution to the lowest setting and it's still giving me the same error.
For the 2 years that I have owned my O2 Xda mini (operating on WM2003SE and using Wisbar Advance 2 overlay), I have not been able to get the SMS to work -- no voice mail, no text messaging. I have contacted my carrier, AT&T (formerly Cingular), and since they don't sell the phone, they are really not interested in solving the problem and suggest that it's the phone. HTC, though, blames the problem on the carrier. I have tried a different SIM card in my phone, but no change.
When I go into the phone options, select Tools/Options/Services and then Voice Mail and SMS, and then press Get Settings..., a message tells me "Reading settings from the network" and a telephone number comes up for "SMS service center," but nothing for "Voice Mail." If I manually enter the number supplied by AT&T and click OK, I get a message: "Sending new settings to the network," then a Network error message: "Unable to save your changes to the network. Try changing settings later, or disconnect data connection and try again." It gives me the option to "Retry"; but if I do, I get the same thing.
I can check Voice Mail by dialing my own mobile number, but I do not receive any notifications -- that a message is waiting, that I missed a call, etc. And as for text messaging, I've never tried it because I'm not sure how to do it. In my profession, I really need Voice Mail notification so that I don't miss important messages. Text messaging would be nice as well. I don't want to toss the phone and invest in another because I suspect this is a solvable problem. I just don't know what the solution is.
Sorry to be so ignorant. Any help the community can provide would be much appreciated (since no one else seems interested). Thanks.
Buck
The problem is neither the handset not the carrier. Rather its Wisbar Advance 2 most probably. However, I can suggest you that you should try disabling (read uninstalling!) Wisbar and then try. If it doesn't work, you should then make a quick note of all the apps that take data for SMS and Voicemails. Disable all of them and try. It will work!
I had a problem with Wisbar Advance 2 until I upgraded it to 3. So hope that the above works the way it did for me.
Thanks.
Thanks, nirmit, I'll give it a try. I really like the Wisbar interface. It sounds like Wisbar Advance 3 will work, right? I'll keep you posted.

im sure that there might be a thread for this already ..... but ive been lazy and i havent asked sprint about it ... but is the touch capable of mobile to mobile picture messaging .. everytime i wanna send a pic the selctions i get are only able to send to email... i cant select to send to a contact... is it jus cuz i cant figure it out or is the touch incapable of mobile to mobile pix messaging
mms is not yet available on sprint. in the future, you can use the search button located on the top right of this page.
there is, but since you're lazy about it maybe you should try kngtut79's advice and try searching.
you can use dashwire. I am on Bell CDMA in Canada and it allows you to send a sms to your contacts as a link to the picture which is the closest I have come to so far. Hope that helps www.dashwire.com

Verizon MMS requires data usage to send or recieve pictures and video. I am specifically looking for a program to send and recieve MMS messages without using data. The program linked above, called sMMS, does it without using data.

This will not work for you then, it still uses data, and you need the Sprint Picture Messaging, which is of course not available for VZW users.
Verizon charges you for a MMS like it's a SMS. If not it's $0.20/msg, the package for, I believe, 250 SMS is $5/mo.

I`ve been trying for a couple weeks now to get MMS working on my Touch. I got a thread going but no luck in fixing it. I came across this today though http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35616. I called Alltel after I changed the setting, but the MMS network happened to be down at the time, so I don`t know if the setting work since nobody could send any at the time. The representative talked to the advance service tech and googled it as well, but neither could figure it out. I`m gonna call back tonight ( they said the network should be up by then) on a different phone to see if they can diagnose it. It kinda sounds like a problem with flashing roms. I know it worked for me before I started flashing, but it also happens even when you flash to an official alltel rom with a locked phone as in the case with my brother`s touch. When I upgraded his radio his stopped working. Perhaps its a network problem, hell I read that Sprint took it away from there users.
