Hi
I'm new to this forum and not that technically savvy so apologies if this is a daft post.
I have a problem with my (UK) T-Mobile MDA Vario in that the MMS menu item is missing from the Start -> Messaging -> Menu -> Switch Accounts menu (I'm told it should be there).
I've followed the T-Mobile instructions for setting up the MMS server configuration and that all looks fine but I just don't see the MMS menu item to enable me to send a picture message.
Details when I start up the phone are as follows:
IPL 2.21
SPL 2.21
GSM 02.19.11
OS 2.21.2.6
Can anyone tell me how I can get the menu item onto my phone?
Many thanks
mms
why did you not look into the message folder?
it should be there
Thanks for the reply.
The only folders I see under the Start -> Messaging -> Inbox dropdown are:
Outlook E-mail
Text Messages
Is that the Message folder you mean?
Thanks

Official T-Mo Rom?
Some official T-Mo roms disable MMS settings editing. I believe T-Mo 2.26 rom does this.
Missing MMS folder
Hi
I had the same problem with my Cingular 8125. After many discussions with Cingular support and no success, I stumbled upon this cab. file, copied and opened the file to my device. I now have the MMS folders.
Have attached the ZIP file for Extended_ROM2.
Below is the cab file that worked for me.
MP-Shorcut-MMS1-Java5xx-CyberonVoice-CV-051220.CAB
I know how U feel. I am also new to these smart phones and only yesterday have I been able to configure MMS, Email and Internet.

Yes this is the folder where MMS would be along with Text and Outlook. Sounds like MMS was accidentally deleted as a new email account was being entered. You may have to hard re-set your device to get it back' or hit NEW at the bottom left, and enter MMS as the new account.

Does your camera have MMS option?
fixed! (well pretty much)
Hi All
Many thanks for your responses!
I tried installing your CAB file Rod and it seems to work a treat - the MMS menus and folder are there now and I can send and receive picture messages - result! When I restarted I lost them again though but I can live with that, I'll just install the CAB after each restart.
hotdog53, yes the camera had the option of sending via MMS but when I chose that absolutely nothing happened. Seems to be alright after the CAB install though.
Thanks again for your help!!

Hi Claire
Great to hear U has some measure of success. I can't remember offhand exactly which folder I installed the cab in, not sure if that would make a difference. Maybe U could try it in different folders. I have restarted my phone numerous times since and have had no problem. Maybe someone else could help out.I am now offshore India and had to leave my phone onshore, so no access to it for a few days.
Good luck

Help!! After upgrading my i-Mate to 1.52.00WWE - I thought successfully I am having several problems. I hope they are interrelated and only a settings issue....
(I only have GPRS on O2, but also have a Vodaphone Sim)
SMS
o Sending SMS with O2 - I get a pop up box saying 'Message undeliverable. Make sure the SMS address was entered correctly'
o Sending SMS with Vodaphone - I get a pop up saying 'Your SMS message cannot be sent'
Email
o Sending email from O2 over GPRS - I get a message back saying 'Your message 'subject' was not sent and has been moved to the drafts folder. The following recipients are invalid: <email address>'
o But I can send no problems while in the cradle
MMS
o Will not even start
I have set the GPRS Connection up several times, but I don't think this is the problem as Internet Explorer works. I have also soft reset several times.
I have no idea where to look next. Help ??!!

OK - Ignore the SMS bit
I worked out the SMS bit - It was my Location Settings and the Address book entry trying to use the number +44 0 7802 xxx.
I've still got problems with Email and MMS.
OK - Ignore the Mail Bit
Sorry ,
The Mail turned out to be the 'Outgoing e-mail server requires authentication' flag.
I'm still VERY VERY Stuck on MMS though. It just will not start!!
MMS startup - My Documents ??
OK, So I got really fed up and couldn't sleep until I had licked this one!
After doing a Hard Reset all worked until I synced with 'Files'. Then after the first Soft Reset MMS stoped working again!!
The work around I have used is to take a copy of the 'My Documents' area on the PC, remove the Partnership AND files from the PC, then sync (including files). I then copied back only the files I wanted to retain into the 'My Documents' folder on the PC.
I answered my own questions eventually - but how annoying, and I still can't work out exactly which file/s were causing the problem.
Hope this helps someone else if you are in the same situation, and you can get it back without a Hard Reset.
Ian
Problems solved
It appears that even if you ask for GPRS with a new account, MMS is not enabled unless you specifically ask for it.
Now its enabled with the supplier, it all works now.
Great forum btw!
I 'upgraded' my firmware from the default Qtek 9100 firmware to the KJAM 1.1.9.3 firmware... I unlocked my extended rom and deleted all of the carrier presets as well as the skype and anti-virus. For some reason I don't see an MMS account in my Messaging app. I see the MMS Configuration menu (everything has been hand configured). I also see the "Send Via MMS" menu in File Explorer, but selecting leads to a short pause and then nothing.
I currently have the following installed from my extended ROM:
Autorun.exe
Default_cdl_wwe_version.cab
Default_ie_view.sa.cab
Default_Imate_PPC_SA_V5./.../.cab
Default_SmartDialing_en/.../.cab
Install_Tsk.exe
Setup.exe
(the names of some were too long to see, but they are all standard to the 1.1.9.3 WWE K-Jam ROM posted on our FTP server.)
Any thoughts on what I might have missed, or what I can do to get MMS working again?
Thanks,
Steve
I have the same problem, just hard-reset my vario after unlocking the extended rom and removing most of the T-Mobile stuff. I have MMS configurations but no MMS account, and when I try to add a new messaging account it wants to set up e-mail.
I installed the cab that is supposed to set up MMS: CAB-Customization-TMUK-Wizard-01-04-03Oct05.CAB, according to this:http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_message/24674452#24674452
and performed a soft reset, but still no MMS account.
Any ideas?
Please use this file to recover it......!!!:lol: :lol:
CAB-Shortcut-MMS1-JAVA5XX-VOICE-O2-31Oct05
I gave that file a shot, unfortunately no change, either before or after a soft reset :-/
That cab seemed to just reconfigure the MMS settings for T-Mobile.
The MMS configuration menu was always visible though, and there was nothing wrong with the settings, problem was that there's no MMS account visible in the messaging program.
I asked a friend to send me an MMS, this made my text messages inbox come up, but not showing a message, and when I tried to close the window it would go back to the today screen momentarily and then bring the inbox back up again.
Can anyone help?
In a sick sad way, I'm glad that JPo has the same problem, at least I know I'm not the only one :shock:
I have exactly same problem on o2 xda exec after applying latest rom upgrade
no mms inbox/account.
mms is configurable under menu>mms configuration, but theres no inbox present.
i tried to send myself an mms message from another mobile phone, all that happens is text message inbox screen pops up, i close it, then a second later it pops back up again, this screnn cannot be closed anymore unless you soft reset
has anyone solved this?
why did the mms inbox dissapear?
fixed it
go to xda developers FTP
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/
then navigate to
/Universal/Extended ROMs/Vodafone_UK_new_ver/
download this file and run it on your device
"msd_cab-shortcut-voda-19aug05.cab"
Your MMS inbox is now Fixed! :wink:
but there are a few additions under start>programs
Namely: ClearVue PDF, MIDlet Manager & Voice Speed Dial. You can delete these with a 3rd party explorer like Resco Explorer.
If you want MMS settings for Vodaphone UK then download this one
"msd_cab-customization-vodaukcontract-universal-01-06-18oct05xml.cab"
Does anyone know how to setup connections for sending and receiving MMS? I just get notifications and warnings it cant send or receive, obviously my connection settings are not correct, can anyone share their Vodafone UK settings (Fool Proof Instructions Please) :roll:
Thanks a Million!!!
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
With your instructions I got my MMS folder for the first time since I have my 9100.
Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!1
Hello !
I have a question for a friend of mine.
He has got Qtek 9000 with the new Rom 1.30.89 Ita
With the previous Rom 1.13.75 his 9000 automatically disconnect after sending an MMS
Now with the new Rom he must manually disconnect it
Then he tried another Rom but for I-mate and with this Rom the automatic disconnection works
So he doesn't know why with some Roms automatic disconnection works and with others doesn't works
Does anyone know the way to automatically disconnect after sending MMS ?
Thanks :wink:
I have this problem to, hope we can discover a fix for this, also on the subject of MMS, when you compose the MMS message, when you click in the "To" field why do we not get a "add from contacts" selection, its tedious having to go into contacts and copy a phone number and then paste it into the MMS "To" field???

If i click on "To" i can choose the contact in the Contacts window, why you must copy/paste ?
I hope to fix the autodisconnect function because my friend is going crazy :lol:
Diggia, thnk you so very much, I can't believe I was clicking in the text box NEXT (Doh!!) to the "To" command, you have made me very happy!
I have the same problem. I am using the latest I-mate WWE and it does NOT disconnect.

@SHRED
I really don't know why with some roms the autodisconnect works and with others doesn't works
Could be any registry settings to modify ?
:wink:
i have this issue aswell. for me as i use push email it is very annoying as i have to have gprs settings for MMS and different settings for internet/ Push Email.
I think it is good news that earlier ROMs did not do this because they will be able to fix it in a new ROM revision...
the QTEK extnded rom includes this file: MP_MMSAutoDisconnect_060106.CAB
i didn't run it, and didn't check how my mms behaves so i can't tell you what it does.
anyway, here it is.
The problem of not disconnecting after sending / Receiving MMS is listed on the I-Mate Jasjar page amongst the "Known Issues". However it looks as if this was a feature by design in the latest Jasjar ROM because alongside this being mentioned as a known issue they say that it does not disconnect so that it is ready to send or receive the next MMS
Regards
i have this problem too! Someone has a solution (Germany Qtek ROM)
anyone found a solution for this problem?
i cannot download the cab attached above! any other location to download plz?
My messaging application (on Dopod 838Pro) appears to have gone missing. If I click on the icon, press the softkey, try to send a photo via email/mms etc, I get no action.
Does anyone know of a way to restore it without a hard reset?
Thanks
Missing Mail
Did a soft reset not do anything either?
Check the files are there to suppor the shortcut and debug.
look for poutlook under the /My device/Windows.
bit of a bummer that one mate.
its tmail.exe in the windows directory for messaging, isn't it?
Mine is there, but it tries to start an email. Now that email has been switched off / disabled it doesn't do anything.
Is there anything from the network provider that can be sent to kick start this all??
For instructions as to how to Reset SMS / MMS folders, look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1083243#post1083243
For the MMS program, the ArcSoft MMS program has been posted on various threads on this site. Once you have followed the instructions in the above link, then reinstall only the MMS program. For example, for the MMS program that works for the Blue Angel, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1084299#post1084299. There have been newer versions of this program posted that work on WM5. Check the FTP site.
Hello all.
I just got my 8525 from Cingular yesterday. I love it. installed a bunch of programs already.

thanks in advance.

Try these keywords in google:
THREADED, SMS
It's hard but it should do the trick
Threaded SMS
This is a common complaint for 8525 users.
You have three choices: 2 legal and one not.
1 and 2: apps called TXTMan and "SMS Threader". Neither integrate well with the phone, most people remove soon after installing.
Option 3: install the app which Palm wrote for the Treo 700W, which has been hacked for use on any WM5 phone. Requires some tweaking, and you're on your own in terms of FINDING the app (Palm is apparently pretty aggressive about getting it taken down from most forums).
Here's how I got mine working on my 8525, here in Austin TX:
1) run the .cab, Soft Reset.
2) edit the registry to rename HKLM/Software/MS/Inbox/SVC/MMS1 to MMS1OLD, Soft Reset. Otherwise you still see MMS if you click your email hard button a second time.
3) Go into new SMS app, Menu, Options, Advanced:
Msg Center#: +12099042020
Email Center#: 121 <--this lets you send sms's to email addresses
MMS gateway address: 66.209.11.32
MMS URL: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Network Profile: MEdia Net
4. Delete Start Menu/Programs/Inbox(1) folder.
That's it - works GREAT. Hope this helps!
