I really like having threaded sms built into WM6.1. I'm using DCD's 3.0.4 kitchen and it seems that ever since I've been using the standard text messaging program I've been having problems.
1. After a soft reset I lose some of the more recent messages in my inbox.
2. After a soft reset my phone will randomly resend an older message. I've tried to find a pattern as to which gets resent, but there isn't one.
I have tried many things to fix these problems, but nothing seems to work. I'm back to using the Palm threaded sms app, but I really preferred the native threaded sms. Does anyone have solutions to either of these problems or am I the only person with these problems?

Set up Vario II yesterday, all appeared fine, installed all my 'must have' software and was ecstatic.
However, I discovered that despite having 'ticked all the right boxes' in options, a soft reset made all my texts (inbox and sent) vanish.
When I created a new folder in inbox to store read messages, and soft reset, this vanished too.
Does anyone have any ideas? Is this happening to anyone else?
Also, if I hard reset and then install a backup, will this re-install the problem?
Any ideas welcome.

Lost messages
I too have disappearing texts on my Tytn. It appears to be just sms messages that disappear and its very frustrating. Its possible it happens after a soft reset and if I havent opened the unread sms prior to reset - also I know its not for this topic but I have also found that my device freezes if I try and open my text messages whilst syncing with WMP. VERY FRUSTRATING.

Actually I have lots of syncing issues with Tytn. Better post a topic. Anyone know of any decent sync software. Activesync is crap!

how do you soft-reset? if you softreset using the stylus it won't write the txt messages and other settings to the memory. If you softreset using the on/off button it should write the messages to the memory. Hold the on/off button for a few seconds and press yes when the message appears on the screen!
Aha!
All of a sudden my text messages don't disappear, in fact, ever since I installed Wisbar lite task manager, which has a soft reset button in the task manager.
On the Vario, holding down the on/off button only closes the device.
So, in conclusion, I reckon that on this machine (didn't used to happen on my old 2003SE) if you use the stylus to reset, then you lose texts, if you use another method then you don't.
Let's hope that's it.
Hi!
I'm looking for a threaded SMS app for my Niki that:
- Integrates in the messaging interface (so not messasing in contacts)
- Shows the new message arrival on the screen (replacing the default notify)
- Works with Dutch T9
- Without upgrading to a WM6.1 rom
Any suggestions ? I know that the Palm Threaded SMS app does most of the things, except a good notify / count on the homescreen....

I use the lord smiff threaded sms cab - this usses the t-mobile uk settings if you need this you can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1309352- if not you can search for a suitable one,
Vito SMS Chat?
Vito does not support Dutch T9 ... doesnt it ?
Im testing the Vito SMS chat now and I love it, there are a few problems thouh.
1.) Does not work with the slide out keypad
2.) Does not work with the software touch keypad
So I use the software touch keyboard, so its a two handed job all the time.
3.) It moves all the SMS to a different folder.
So vito needs to work on these three things.
and if they can add:
-SMS Predefined groups.
I tried lord smiff threaded sms and it rocks. . But I no programs I know of backup the text messages
the 1.2 version of sms-chat works with the keyboard AND T9
I'm hoping they incorporate MMS into it soon as well
Thanks for bringing this back up.
When you say keyboard, do you mean the slide out touchpad?
Now I remember why I uninstalled it, as of now im testing pocketCM which also has threaded SMS
yeah the hardware keyboard and software touch keyboard both work perfectly well on my sms-chat and im using t9 as well
my sms-chat is version 1.02.
I just uninstalled pocketCM after a few hours, still buggy.
When Vito has the options to view calls and MMS together with SMS then ill get itfor sure, till then, it back to stock aps for me
where can i get the threaded sms cab??? please
read the first page of this thread...the link is on it!

Have you seen Extreme Text from Birdsoft? Check it out here. I use it on my Kaiser and really like it. It doesn't need WM6.1. It has a better looking interface even than @M6.1 Threaded Messaging.
A New Text Message box pops up when a message arrives, but I think it's the standard box. If you ignore it, it goes away - then just open Extreme Text and the message is there. But the message is also in the standard inbox, so you can access it through Arcsoft messaging as well, and you don't have to worry about backing up a separate set of files.
I don't know why it wouldn't work with any language T9 - it doesn't demand any certain keyboard. I just used it with Touch Diamond keyboard, no problem.
Is it just my phone or does anyone else have a problem with the sms threading in 6.1?
Whats the problem? When i flash a new 6.1 rom, and I backup the sms's, the threading doesn't work very well. For example, It will show all of my sent messages first, then show messages from the person afterwards and sometimes not even in correct order.
Pretty much, the sms threading is screwed up after a backup. It will work properly with newly sent/received messages, just not the backed up ones.
It doesn't make any sense though, cause the messages contain the date and time sent/received, so why doesn't wm6.1 thread them properly????
anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?
Thanks!
I have wm6 and installed imsms ( I know its old and not supported anymore- but was hoping for the best) and it worked good for the 1st day. Then it stopped receiving and stopped autostarting. I tried uninstall, reinstall. Nothing, so I tried a couple of other SMS programs also all with the same results, they dont receive or auto start. I can send from all of them fine, but all incoming text messages go to the default wm6 messaging even if I leave the program running
I really want threading as imsms has but am at a loss.
Is there a setting/ registry I can change or something else I am missing that will redirect incoming to the program of my choice ( I would prefer imsms - but something similar would be fine)??
I'm using a 6.5.3 ROM and all is working fine except for the SMS.
SMS only works in Traditional mode.
If I switch to Conversation mode, I can only see the new Sms, the old ones don't show.
Anyone has a Fix for this?
same here lol
