I have been using this program for about 3 days now and I must say that it is pretty good. You really have to follow the setup to get it right. I did not select to do the transcribe feature but I am thinking about it now that I like the Visual Voice mail side of the program.
My only downside now is the program is not giving me a notification that I have new emails. They say it is supposed to work......but! The way I overcame this is that on the setup screen, I have notification set to send me a email to let me know. This is a work around but still a great app.
Anyone else using this..........if so let me know what you think and how it is working for you.
CallWave does this too...
...and it is free.
i saw this on boygenius.com. but i also read that the .cab file is only for the smartphone and not for pocket pc.

I use callwave as well...it's so awesome! I LOVE IT!
Been trying to sign up for callwave but it doesn't recognize my phone number format and I'm in Canada.
How should it be written?
as for simulscribe, yes make sure u follow instructions or it wont work
I tried callwave.....it seems pretty good, but there is not a program for the PPC that will allow you to see each voicemail that you have. It does send to your email. If you have push email turned on, it is ok. SimulScribe still seems to be a little further in with its PPC Visual Voice Mail. Maybe someone will come out with something better quick!

You mention you were having problems with email notifications. Does this work with your email, or is it a standalone app (there's not too much info on the simulsays website). Also, the website mentions it's compatible with a few Blackberry devices and Windows Mobile Smartphones (not Pocket PC's). You didn't have any problems installing it?
It is a .cab file that you download. After you do setup on their site and download the cab file, it will update itself with a new .cab. The second .cab is for PPC not smartphone. I have no trouble with anything but it's internal notification. As a side note you can setup a notification via email and this works great. I just hate having to apply this fix! Anyone out there without this problem.
What does transcribed do?

You can get your voicemails transcribed and sent to you via email or text message. You have to pay for this feature.
Tomcat - have you noticed any extra battery drain using this app? I'm wondering if it works sort of like push email, where it's constantly checking if you have new voicemail, or if it only works when you actually get a new voicemail.
I'm removing this. My phone doesn't alert me when I have a voice message. I have to go to the program to check. Also the voice mail volume is really really low.
This looked quite cool, but it seems to require a monthly fee for the service (which is fine, but I wouldn't use it enough to make it worthwhile).
However, I am wondering something now....
I have a wizard and it was said that a wizard is not capable of accessing the audio for the phone, but I see that you can "record" calls on a Hermes. I'd guess this is limited to you recording your side, but if you could record/monitor the incoming signal and I have free voicemail, would it be possible to transcribe messages on the phone when the program is activated by an incoming voicemail notification?
Ahhh pipe dreams...
PT Barnum was right
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.
what MMS service do you guys use on your t-mobile wing? I dont know what i have on my phone but everything works fine (i can send and recieve them) except when i go to open them i dont see pics, videos dont works, and i get no sound. Pic files act like they are playing a 5 second sound clip. its really weird. anyways if anyone has a tip on a new one to use, that doesnt turn my SMS into a email like set up (i had used one before that did this and it was very annoying so i unistaled it which gave me this problem) i would appreciate it.

If you can send and recieve MMS' then it is very possible that the problem is with who is sending you the MMS'. I have someone i work with and every time they send me a text it comes through as an MMS even tho it is a simple text without pics or sound. It may just be the person sending it to you.
my wife used to be able to send me pics before on another rom but now her pics are the same as everyone else
Try reflashing. *shrugg*
My fiancee had a problem with her cell phone doing something SOMEWHAT similar, and it took changing her phone number (purging their systems of all the configuration data) to get it working again.
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 have unlimited texting, but was told that smartphones on Verizon don't use MMS, instead they use data somehow.

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.
I need a program so send SMS through my Rhodium with my laptop. I've googled the **** out of it, but I can't find anything that works with WinMo. its all Symbian :/
Anybody know of anything?
Thankss!!!!
my mobiler allows you to view and control the phone on your laptop screen with the keyboard and mouse....???
anything simpler, and maybe free?
you can send text messages through www.t-mobile.com but youll only be able to recieve through your phone. other option is google voice. you can see all your sent and received plus you can spam certain numbers + a whole lot more only thing is that you have to get a new phone number but that can be linked to your cell phone.
other option is totally seperate from your phone. gmail allows you to send and receive text messages through their chat box. you just have to turn on the options through the setting.
last option that i know of is aim.... just add the phone number as a buddy and you can send and receive text messages.
