hi new to forum and just got this phone (in the uk its the 'magic').
my gripe is not being able to send and receive using bluetooth.
i have bought 'bluex' application from the 'market' and can now send items but as yet not receive.
it states that it will only receive if the device is 'rooted'.
what is this?
can we ever receive via bluetooth?
(PS, this may have been already covered so sorry for asking again)
(PPS, i'm not very computer illiterate or up on terminology so easy please)
do u bluetooth?
so it seems that nobody wants to bluetooth?!?
we here in the UK use this function a lot to exchange pic's and text as its free.
so i ask any helpers out there?
(i have sent a email to htc to see if they can help....post up what they say when i get a reply.
From what I understand, the lack of bluetooth functionality is sort of US market adaptation. In the US it is not at all common to send files over bluetooth, and I think it represents a security risk as well. So functionality has been removed. Same with iPhone. I've also heard a different story about lack of SDK. Which one is true, I don't know. I don't use it that much my self, so its less of an issue.
But it is possible to fix. BlueX will help you a long way, but to recieve files I think you need root access to your phone. There's many guides for rooting phones so just do a quick search on this forum and you'll be bluetoothing in no time.

hi, could someone confirm if they are able to receive and read html emails ok on WM5 with a universal? Do you get a blank email body or is it converted to text? I am running a BA with WM5 and seem to have a problem viewing html emails, cant see the body of the email. I checked on my pc and the problem emails all seem to be html. Plain text displays ok. Just wanted to check if they display ok with a final WM5 rom or if its due to the fact that the BA rom is beta. Thanks
HTML mails are still not supportet.
Yes i know they are not supported. But under WM2003SE if there is text in the email it will display the text only, under WM5 the whole body of the enail is blank on my BA. That is what im asking.
Hmmm. I received HTML mail, but it's usually junk so I never really checked to see what it does.
But I have to say, except for the persistant memory, I really like to know what MS improved in Windows Mobile other than break a lot of existing apps :roll:
The email app hasn't changed, the Word and Excel programs don't seem to work any better at reading native documents, Activesync is worse and less featured and the Microsoft bluetooth stack is still no better than it was before (still doesn't support advanced audio). Oh yeah, they added a Powerpoint reader. Oh boy :evil:
I can see the alternative text. I think thats the text part of the multimime message.
Hey Americano.
Try adjusting your manners when one of our european colleagues tries to offer you some assistance. That is what you were hoping for when you posted, was it not, ..assistance? Maybe then someone else will answer your question correctly.
Just a tip from someone who appreciates the time others can give to help when in need.
That last post of mine was not aimed at you DaleReek, but your fellow american brethren with an attitude.

Is this directed at me? Where in my comments am i rude? Please point out where my manners need adjusting. I merely restated my question as the response did not answer my question. If you havent got anything substantial to add why post?
If you would care to look at my previous posts you would see i have helped as well as asked others for help previously without any problems.
And for you information i am british now living in america.
@ everyone else. It seems my question is being misunderstood. Let me rephrase:
I am posting this here because JasJar users have a commercial rom which would be a good benchmark to determine whether my problem is due to the unfinished nature of the BA WM5 rom or a limitation of the email app itself. I KNOW html email viewing is not supported in WM5 nor in WM2003SE. But this is my scenario:
When i was running WM2003SE and i received an html email containing only text i would see the text no problem. When i receive html with images these are stripped away leaving only the text. This is to be expected.
Under WM5 receiving an html email containing only text the email shows a blank email message. There is no text displayed. As others have pointed out you should still see the text. I was merely asking what JasJar owners were experiencing on their devices.
I am fully aware that html email is not supported. I am fully aware that the BA WM5 rom is not final. I was just trying to ascertain where the fault may lie, with the BA rom or with WM5 in general. To all that have tried to answer thanks. At the moment i think i have my answer. Thanks to cchris and MBastian
To Efjay:
Let's end this, as it's not productive and as you rightly state. I'm not exactly posting anything helpful at the moment. But remember; everyones writing style may be deemed ambiguous and is therefore perceived differently. From your justification for your writing style, I accept that I MAY have been mistaken about your attitude and therefore should not have posted my opinion. It just read that way to me. If I have caused you offense...I apologise.
Now we've got that out of the way....let's get back to problems and solutions. Funny that, as I don't have any solutions for your problem at the moment. But I will post any useful info, as i learn it. Best of luck.
I am pasting the question from another forum which interests me as well…

"Hi all,
when sending sms and you set the setting for ask for delivery notice on you get back the delivery notice but it will only show you the number not the Name.
This is very annoying when you are sending sms to many contacts.
Is there a work around that?. I contacted the poor online support of Imate and one "not-so-tactful" support lady said "this is what it suppose to do" and they cut me off even before asking my next question to them.
what a shame i-mate has such a poor online support."
Unfortunately I don't think there is. The delivery report comes back from the networks servers with the persons mobile number only. The contact name for that number is stored locally on your phone handset only. What you need is a program that can scan received delivery reports, pull out the number and match it to your contacts database. Far too long winded.
Such a function would probably only benefit someone sending one sms to multiple contacts, then waiting to see who actually received it, so probably not considered by any software developers.
never the less, it is still a shortcoming of the Windows Mobile software, as all nokia phones old and new (even the ancient 8210), and sony ericsson phones can do this!

i use to use the motorola version on my v3. It was good at spamming, not intentionally ofcourse. After sending 1 sms I left my phone attached to the computer. upon returning to the comp i found that it had sent the sms over and over and over and so forth.
to Doom Tints:
My aim it's not spamming but gain some free credit!!! what's wrong with that? I'm not breaking the law nether the network rules... please read here http://www.three.co.uk/news/h3gnews...llcid=1019745742912&cid=1137675159353&index=1
I got free messages that I never use on my T-Mobile phone. This could also be useful to others in this community too... Don't you think?

Hi all.
I am new to developing on the Android platform, and am trying to familiarise myself with it. It's not like anything I've worked with recently.
I am currently looking at putting together an app, and one of the features I am looking to include is the ability to send messages from one device to another, via the data connection.
I realise this exists using XMPP, and clients such as jabiru and imov. I do not want to reinvent the wheel as such - so am wondering if there any clients out there that I can use to send messages from my app via a known working app.
I have been searching, but am not finding anything that looks suitable. Does anyone know of any apps that might be what i'm looking for?
Cheers.

Check with another phone carier, I have same problem on one carrier it works, on another not. For tests use another phone number, it is not required that SIM card be in WP7 phone. If carier "support" this feature you will get SMS from microsoft, if not you are unlucky.
I guess microsoft (from live.com) use some global SMS carier and some carriers in different countries have not configured their gateways to accept this messages.
Well, one thing I noticed is if I am on WiFi or with data on, I tend to find my phone. Microsoft uses three different methods, I believe, to find your phone. One is using the location caching sent from your phone regularly if you have that on in the setting. The other is sending an SMS to force your phone to send a location, in which case your carrier needs to support global SMS I believe, and lastly, they send an email to do the same thing the SMS intended to do.
So first thing you should do is to check whether both boxes are checked in find my phone in settings. Secondly, be patient, if Microsoft can't locate it right away, they will send you an email when they do find it.
