So for the 3 boxes that show missed calls, texts, mms, etc, can I change one of them to show voicemails? I know WM5 could do that (as my last phone showed voicemails), but can the interface HTC uses support this? I could really care less about MMS items, but voicemail, that would be handy...
Thanks for any replies...
Where are the "3 boxes"? In HTC Home?

Ok, since updating to the new flash and radio. the only things i see different is when i click on the Verizon Wireless icon it does nothing and when i click on unread messages it shows sms/mms, outlook E-mail and setup e-mail. i am fine with it just saying txt, sms and mms. how can i do this please?
my question about the txt messaging. before when you clicked on no unread messages it would show txt messaging, sms and mms. now i don't see txt messaging. how do i txt now?
and when i slide the keypad open or closed it doesn't make the sound. so i went to a site and was going to add a sound in but when it tells you to go into the registry i don't see the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\SlidingSound
i don't see the "slidingsound" location either.
Lastley when my wife send me picture msgs i don't get them. only getting txt messages?
thanks
sounds like you have several things going on here, and you need to do alot of reading in the Titan Upgrading forum to get your answers
1) your ROM might not have MMS
2) your MMS might not be configured correctly
3) you may need to reinstall your carrier cab
4) you may need the newest Archsoft MMS cab
in threaded SMS, all your messaging, whether it is text or picture, will be in the same message dialog. picture messages will show up in the threaded SMS as just a little picture icon, which you can click on to view the picture.
if your wife sends you a (nude) picture and NOTHING happens on your phone, you have no MMS at all (currently). if your wife sends you a (sexy) picture and you receive some kind of error, you have MMS but it is not configured correctly, and you need to change your MDN key to your 10 digit phone number. if your wife sends you a (dirty) picture and you receive it in your threaded SMS, forward it to ME!
Hi,
I couldnt find another topic about this so i made 1.
In my touchflo3d i can only see 25 texts and when i go to windows mobile texts i can only see 1 for each day up to 15 texts in my inbox and i cant find my other texts i received. i can see all the texts i have send.
Anyone know where i can see these.
And does anyone has a program to put a password on my texts.
thanks in advance chris.
Did you ever find a solution to this? Or at least a way of copying old messages to a folder perhaps?
Cheers for any help

Its a simple program to lock certain areas, like SMS, Email, etc. There are also a number of solutions that automatically move incoming SMS to a secure location, so your SMS stay accessible, but not the ones you want to hide...
still no solution to show more than:
-25 sms
-99 mails
-14 stocks
-14 favourite contacts
I have been using youmail.com for a while before I got the google phone but now with the G1 I dont get the voicemail indicator from my service provider. Does anyone have any insight into how to set up the G1 properly or another service that has similar functions?
And I tried PhoneFusion and didnt like it because of the double notifications.
Youmail works on the G1 just like it does on other tmo phones. You get a text message notification when you get a voicemail. The provider's voicemail indicator doesn't show up because the call was never sent to the the provider's voicemail system.
Just make sure you set up your voicemail number as well as call forwarding numbers for youmail, configure youmail on its website, and you're good to go. Also, you might want to add "YouMail" to your contacts, both by its dial-in number and by the four digits or so the text notification comes from, so that your notifications are like you want them.
And yes, PhoneFusion was way too annoying for me as well. I would much rather have individualized voicemail greetings for my contacts, as well as "ditchmail" greetings for the telemarketers. Been using it since it was introduced.
It was all setup and working on my Hermes and it would show the voicemail indicator but on the Dream I only get the text and no indicator. Little annoyances like that always make me go for the default option.
Interesting that it worked on the Hermes. Maybe it's a difference in ATT? I've been using Callwave for a couple years and switched to Youmail when I got the G1, always on T-Mobile and never got the voice mail indicator...which makes sense considering your "network" VM box never gets anything in it. In fact at one point my call forwarding got reset and I was tipped off by the sudden reappearance of the VM indicator!
I used YouMail on my Excalibur (Dash) with WM6.1 and, like the previous poster, only got the standard VM notification when something messed up with the forwarding numbers.
It would be cool if an Android webapp were made that checked YouMail on their site. Then PhoneFusion would definitely be out of the running.
Ya, I am not sure how it worked before but I think it was youmail that would send your phone the voicemail notification. It was basically a straight replacement for the provider service but I was able to have different voicemail messages for each caller.
Youmail works very well on the G1. If I miss a call, I get a notice. If they leave a VM I get a SMS (if they don't leave a message I *could* get a SMS but I choose not too).
Custom answers, ditching telemarketers and getting my VM via email is TOTALLY worth it.
I am to the point where I couldn't stand it if I didn't have Youmail (or some other competant equivalent).

I'm on the total-internet plan instead of the official G1 plan so I don't have text messages bundled. That means it costs me money each time youmail notifies me of a voicemail. I can have it notify me via email, but then the voicemail is lost within the tons of emails I normally get.
Solution: t-mobile email triggers.
Email triggers is a service that t-mobile provided a long long time ago to certain phones like the SDA and MDA. Basically, you login to t-mobile.com and configure the service to periodically check an external mailbox, like gmail, for new emails and then will send an SMS to you. The trick is that you're not suppose to view this SMS as a t-mobile application on your phone is suppose to look for this SMS and when one comes in, it will be triggered to pull down new emails from the mailbox that the SMS indicates. The key is that you're not charged for this trigger SMS.
So in short:
1. Configure youmail to send the voicemail alert to a gmail mailbox
2. Configure t-mobile email triggers to check that gmail mailbox and either alert you for all emails (if the mailbox is dedicated to youmail) or only alert you when certain text is detected (like "YouMail"). You need to tell t-mobile.com that your device is a SDA before you do this.
Now, I will get a free text message alert from youmail. I don't use sms so the text alert will really standout apart from my email alerts.
On another related topic, you can configure the "1" key on the phone to dial youmail, but that reverts back to the t-mobile number on its own. Now I just use a shortcut to youmail's number.

I am on the total internet plan also but I do get text messages for free... weird. I better check my account!! The rest of your comments are spot on and a great alternative method for notification.
I didn't check the speeddial voicemail (#1) for awhile since I usually dial from the SMS...It did reset it to TMo... interesting. I'll have to watch that more closely.

friend of mine just got a pure. she is having issues with text messaging. it has the touch flo 3d interface and if you send a text from your favorite people (that has their picture and threaded sms) it works and sends just fine. if you go into all messages and send through the old winmo interface, it acts like it sends, but it never sends anything and no confirmation noise that it was sent. incoming texts never make a noise or pop up, she has to just check her phone periodically. i turned off touch flo and tried sending a text through the windows default ui and nothing would send. does she have a bad phone, or am i just doing this wrong? it shouldnt be that hard to send a text.
I have noticed this here and there too. Thought I was going insane. I could be missing something simple but I dont think so. Even after a send / recieve they just sit there.
Noticed this on the stock ATT rom and on some cooked ones too.
Hello.
I have problem receiving mms. I have my APN for internet and mms set up according to my provider settings I got from them. I was able to send mms, so I guess my mms APN works. But I can not receive mms.
When my friend sent me mms, I got my phone vibrating. There was no sound although I have it set to sound. I get sound for sms. I went to messaging app, but there was no evidence of mms. We tried that again, I could even see something like "Unknown: MMS received" (or something along those lines) but the notification did not stay in notification bar and the message was again nowhere to be found in messaging app. I also tried ChompSMS and HandecentSMS. No change. While testing, we send maybe 10 mms, and one of them actually made it to my messaging inbox and I was able to view it. Others just vibrated couple of times (I guess network was trying to deliver them again when failed before).
I am on G1, T-Mobile Slovakia and CyanogenMod4
Anyone knows solution please?
Thanks.
p.s. I also tested making sure my 3g data is on and working.
Just for the future reference. It was HandcentSMS doing this. After uninstall, stock app works just fine.
