Hey everyone, please help me!
last night i was sending a group sms to 4 people consisting of about 14 messages each. normally nothing goes wrong, but this time the phone just froze. I reset the phone and it seemed to be working fine, but when i tried to open the sms/mms nothing would happen.
After a while i got frustrated and began to continuously tap on the button to open the messaging screen. Finally the phone seemed to be doing something, as the windows processing icon come onscreen and was rotating.
But after a few seconds the phone gave me an error saying,
"Cannot open 'tmail'. A critical component is either missing or cannot start because program memory is unavailable. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Memory, stop programs that did not automatically stop, and try again."
when you follow the instructions and reach 'memory' however, there is no option to stop programs as they have instructed.
i have used sktools to end the process, but now the tmail.exe is neither showing up as a running process or in the CPU usage.
I've tried numerous soft resets as well, and am trying to avoid a hard reset as i stupidly have not backed up my phone in a very long time.
Please help!
Had the same problem after backup restore, couldn't solve it without Hardreset. However you might try and have a look at your registry. If you have nothing left to lose (Right before you make a Hardreset), delte the whole inbox key and see what happens.

Hi All,
Firstly allow me to commend everyone who has helped bring the wm2003se upgrade to the Himilaya device series. As usual i was reluctant to risk my device as it is a true workhorse, but the temptation proved too strong and i went for the upgrade anyway. So far it seems to be working ok except for two things. The first is the voicemail icon that appears in the taskbar at the top of the screen. it is constantly beeping and informing me that i have a voicemail, however when i call my voicemail - nada! no messages. Hang up and get informed of a new message, one that my phone has apparently made up! The second thing is the restore feautre in activesync. After the upgrade i tried to restore a backup on my work pc, i was denied due to "backup is for an older type of device" or summit like that. Once home i tried the same proceedure on my pc there and guess what? it worked first time, only after soft resetting it only restore some items (like my docs folder) but not others like settings, progs etc. Another weird thing is that the contact harwdare button became disabled with an error message saying no mapping found, went to the buttons menu in settings and there was no option to assign the contact action to the contact button? I have since resolved most of these issues except for the voicemail thing that us really annoying me. If anyone can suggest a fix, please please do!
Cheers all

Only recently got my T-Mobile branded Vario direct from them brand new and I've noticed that after I perform a soft reset all my messages, regardless of whether they have been read or not, get wiped.
I've checked Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Outbox and Sent Items folders and they are all empty! I can absolutely assure you that I did not delete any of the messages myself.
Thinking that I might of had some conflict with another piece of sofware I had installed I decided to perform a hard reset and get everything set back to T-Mobile factory defaults. After all the Extended-Rom branding stuff got installed I decided to leave the phone exactly as it was, no tweaking of any settings, no installing any extra apps, no active-syncing, no nothing - a fresh factory reset!
Then, I sent another text message to the Vario. It arrived and after I read it and confirmed that it was indeed in the Text Message Inbox folder I quit out of the message app and perform a soft reset. Guess what happened after it restarted? Yep, the text message has miraculously disappeared
Anybody else seen this happen?
Anyone care to comment? Please reply even if your text msgs DON'T get wiped as I'd like to find out whether it's normal or not.
not got a T-mobile ROM, i'm using the O2 one (and now the updated version) and have never lost text messages from a soft reset (only a hard reset)
Sry i cant help further
just started happening to me and i been using the 2.17 rom.. i noticed this yesterday it deleted like 5 msgs but i got my other ones there so i was like WTFD?
I've just had this on a Universal (Orange M5000) with the latest Orange ROMs.
Prior to this, I suddenly had days and days of delivery notifications come flooding in, although this may have been an issue with either Orange or another network provider.
hi for me its not the txt messages but all new files that is created on the sd card gets deleted an all deleted files reappears after a soft reset
m really bugged
if ne 1 knows whats the problem pls help me
thanks
Loosing SMs messages.
If you have received a SMS message and soft reset before closing POutlook then I have found that you do loose the message.
By closing, I mean really closing it - not just pucsing the X button.
Likewise if you have deleted a message or moved it then the message(s) come back.
It seems to be that POutlook doesn't commit the changes to it's database until you close the app - or switch accounts.

That certainly seems to be the case with me, I was having trouble syncing with activesync, just dying each time I tried so in the end I hit the soft reset, I'm fairly certain that I still had outlook running at that point.
Actually, thinking about it, there were two batches of sms msgs, and I did end task on outlook after the first, so I can maybe understand that the second lot could be lost, but not the first?
Is there any way of validating the system databases?
The problem that I was having, disappearing SMS msgs, seems to have gone away and everything is still intact now even after multiple soft resets.
In case anyone else gets this strange behaviour, I can indeed confirm that POutlook.exe was indeed closed as I had also double checked the running programs list * to ensure no other processes were open that could conflict.
( * Start -> Settings -> System -> Memory ->Running Programs )
bbut also make sure tmail.exe is closed to.. get memmaid ull be suprised at all whats running.. the best thing to do is to use SmartSKey and make that close ur txt message app completelty!
poutlook.exe tmail.exe and sMSNserver.exe/pMSNserver.exe ...if these are open chances are ur sms/mms may be wiped after a soft-reset i make sure to sync my phone to pc and use jeyo outlook companion b4 a soft-reset
I have found that the more messages I have in my in/out boxes for text messages, the more frequently I have to do a soft reset because WM froze. So, I periodically clear my boxes. However, I reciently got a replacement phone because of a bluetooth issue. Now, with the new phone, I cant get the messages to really delete. I have tried "Clear Text Messages," manually deleting the txts then deleting again from the deleted box, and using the "Empty Deleted Items." Each time the texts disapear, but when I do a soft reset, they return. WTF??
The phone is a stock Verizon VX6800 with no custom ROMs/Radios/etc. The only aftermarket software I have installed yet is ThemeMaster to switch my themes.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Anyone know what's going on with this?
Only thing I have to suggest is before you reset the device, make sure your text message app is shut off. Typically you'll lose new texts and such when you don't, works the same for everything deleted. Or just use the power button to shut it off. I heard it turns off everything for you when you do that.

I think this is a lot of poo myself. What does it matter if a message is setting in a file with no activity.
But yes, as mentioned, try shutting down your messaging in the running programs after you delete them. Then reset it.
Hi There.
I am sending out this request for help here and at the forums at PCM.... here is the problem:
I use PCM for all my contact needs: SMS/MMS etc. I do not use email.
My phone was working fine up until this morning when I tried to send an sms. It failed but did not say it failed. I tried again. The message sits in the entry field. Thats it. Than all of the sudden PCM closes down. I try to reopen it. It will start than immediately shuts down. I try this several times. Same. I reset the phone. And try again the same things happens.
So I try other versions of PCM. Same result. I try deleting the cache. Same result. Each time I soft reset my phone I get a message saying that Birdysync can't start ( I use this to sync my phone with Mozilla Thunderbird) So I try Deleting birdy from my phone and soft resetting again. Same thing!! I have a notification that I have an unheard voicemail, so I listen to it. that notification WILL NOT go away. I have no voice messages but the phone will not release the notification. I used the little program "Check notifications" I cleared all dupes and as it clears it will just run continuously until I stop it.
I just used "PIM Back up". I am hoping that this will back up all my sms messages will it?
Oh, also, the phones built in messaging app won't even start.
I have an HTC Wizard with winmo 5. Factory os. No mods except new software. Everything was running fine until this morning I have added no new software, and have made no changes in any way to the phone..
Any ideas before I hard reset this thing...I really hope I don't have to.
Thank you all in advance
Found this
Ok..so I found this thread from a little while back:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=288549
post #7 has a solution. I tried it and it works...THANK God. I was minutes away from a hard reset.
Though I still have the voicemail notification that won't go away. I could still use some help with that.
Thanks
Hi All, and thanks in advance!
My WhatsApp has been messing up pretty badly over the last two days. I randomly (and this is true - no errant reboots, no app crashes, etc.) get the error message "Something went wrong with your chat history" on WhatsApp, which has a Restore option under the dialog box. This is practically useless as the progress bar never successfully completes, but even goes back at times.
This forces me to reinstall WhatsApp, and pray that I don't have to start with a new chat database again. My most recent backup that they detect is from a week ago, which also takes multiple attempts to get back on the app. This plunges me into another time lag, as the app's verification put in progressively increasing wait times every time I reinstall.
Would be happy to provide more info as and when asked for.
