I've been using Sprite Archie on my previous phone (Touch Pro) and it worked fine, but on my HD2, it doesn't archive incoming text messages.
Sprite Archie can automatically forward sent and received text messages to e-mail. I use it to archive all my text messages in my Gmail-account.
On my HD2, sent messages are processed correctly, but received messages are not. Archie should forward them immediately as they come in, but doesn't seem to detect them. It's able to read them, though, as it can manually export them in a single list file. But I prefer the immediate, one-sms-one-e-mail method.
Does anyone have any idea as to what might be different on the HD2 that prevents Archie from detecting incoming text messages?
I would ask Sprite Software about this but they don't support Archie anymore...
Edit: I did ask them and they were very nice, but said they couldn't help since they no longer support this software.
Bump!!
No answers? :-(
Once more: Sprite Archie is a wonderful piece of software, I used it on my Touch Pro and it worked perfectly. It forwards each text message you send or receive to e-mail. I used it to archive everything in my Gmail account.
Can anyone help me fix it on the HD2? It doesn't seem to pick up incoming text messages anymore... I have a rare copy of the program that I can share here I suppose, if anyone's interested, since Sprite doesn't sell or support it anymore so I guess they won't mind.
Or... is anyone willing to try and create an entirely new tool that does the same thing? I would definitely pay for that.
Guess not, would be damn useful

Has anyone found a way of saving sms messages to their pc? for both viewing or creating? I have 100s in my inbox and would like to keep them, but not sure how to do it.
Any info would be gratefully appreciated

There are some programs that apparently do this, such as SMSExport, though I've never got these to work.
The only way I've found to do it - though as the II has more memory I've not done anything with them in months now - is to use a db program such as dbExplorer to export them to a csv file. There are other posts that detail how you find the particular table the messages are in, there isn't one folder that applies across all devices.

Try Jeyo Mobile Companion. Through your pc, you can view all your past sms, all incoming sms, and reply to them. You could back up all or some of your sms, and restore them later (if you want). You could choose to make the backups in text format.
And not only that ...
You can view your call history and make backup of those.
You can make screen caps of your ppc screen.
Hope this helps.
Try this one
:lol:
Jeyo's Mobile Companion is fantastic, exactly what I've been looking for since the first XDA came out.
Finally resetting your device (which I think is a good idea once every 6 months or so) doesn't mean you have to lose all your text messages.
Cheers

Yes, I agree it is fantastic .... But it doesn't yet allow you to save SMS subfolders
This app will be for all wm devices.
This is an ongoing project that is in need of some of you guys expertise. The rom of the treo 750v has been dumped and is in need of hacker and developers. The treo 750v has features that NO OTHER wm device does. Like the threaded sms messaging, which is sms in a chat style form.
http://www.palm.com/sg/products/smar...messaging.html is a little more about how it works and what it does.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279758 is a thread in the xda-treo forum, but I feel need to be here due to the fact that it will be for all wm devices and is in need of developers and hackers.
Attached is the rom dump.
Thanks, Cody
in many countries you pay pr. sms much more then you'd pay to send text over grps so for most ppl msn, skype or other IM clients would do the same thing only much cheaper
I am really not sure what the hype is about. Haven't used SMS in a long time a with 100MB data package, I have to agree with Rudegar even the built in MSN messenger is better.
Any way I thought you should know that what you posted is not a ROM dump and cannot be used to extract the app.
Interesting you say that. If you have kids sms messaging is almost a requirement. It is extremely popular with the younger generation. I find myself using it more and more. I have friends that send over 3k sms messages in a month. A threaded sms app sure makes it a much better experience.
The rom dump thread was moved by someone over to the treo section for those wondering where it went. The dump is on the ftp server.

I played with the rom dump yesterday. The messaging app does load, just seems to be missing some resources and/or registry entries that I'm not prepared to import right now (test machines all being used already).
It also appears to be fixed at 240x240, although that can probably be fixed later.
The rest of the rom - doesn't contain many intersting .exes, but I know hannip is interested in a number of the other devices and drivers installed. They don't appear to be device specific (c.f. many eten files are).
In the UK, data contracts are very expensive, and you get loads of SMS bundled in your contracts, so SMS makes sense. I don't IM from my phones. But both have their uses.
But I still can't see the fascination with threaded SMS. It'd be quite straight forward to program even if the treo app can't be sucked out.

PS Whoever dumped the roms to begin with, many thanks!
However, we may need to get an overview of the databases on the device as well, in case there are any custom databases. The speed dial plugin that has thus far been elusive relies on a call db. Either a device backup (using sprite etc) or a database dump would be useful to check. Just a guess, might lead to nothing.
Thanks vijay for all of your assistance! Good to hear that the sms app loads. I've been trying to get the a2dp dll's to work on my treo 700wx and 700w devices just to get my feet wet. Having some issues getting the dll's to load, but with your help I might figure this out yet.
The excitement for the 750 sms app over the other threaded sms apps out there is the clean integration with the os and today screen. I've tried other sms threader apps and they are buggy, don't grab messages when the pda is suspended, and leave copies of sms messages in poutlook. The one from triangle powers is a .net app and loads extremely slow because of it. It is expected that the palm written app will solve all of these problems. Plus it handles mms pictues, audio etc.
i dont say i dont use sms i just say i use sms as sms's as in short message service msg's
not as chat because i dont see the point of using it as chat
of cause if you dont pay pr. each sms
and want to chat with somebody who dont have msn it's usefull i guess
but another issue is the delay if that person is on a different network then you heard that compeating phone companys are not always too snappy to route to eachother

Well, I'm someone who wants the SMS chat program badly.
Understand, it's not so much that you use like an IM program, you don't.
This is just a method by which to organize your SMS conversations e.g. say you and your friend over the day send back and forth to each other 20 messages, all releated to the same thing. Now throw in 15 more random SMS from other peopel in the same day. Your inbox would be a mismash of 20 something messages (assuming you don't delete every single one, maybe there is important info you need).
This program would "group" your SMS into a single "chat style thread", like and IM history would. You can then just delete the entire thread at once when you are done with it. It's also nice to keep that previous information handy, especially if your discussing plans, information, phone numbers etc. You just scroll up to find it again.
If you're a heavy texter, this is a great way to organize your back-and-forth conversations. It's not an IM replacment, so don't think of it as that.
In my case I use it as a compliment to AIM. I have AIM forwarding all of my IM's to my cell phone when I am away. That way my friends and family can msgs me anytime anywhere. My phone/pda can remain in suspend mode conserving the battery and I still get my IM's. I can reply to them just like an IM session. No need for the AIM client on my phone.
The best thing about using sms over an IM client is that you can communicate with anyone that has a cell phone. You don't have to tell someone to register with an IM server to send them messages. It works in suspend mode. With a nice sms chat app the only advantage an IM client has over it is the messages are more instantaneous. But for phone use that is acceptable imo.
Of course this all assumes you don't have to pay on a per sms basis.
Hi! theloanranger said he extracted the 750v threaded app already. It's at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1035112&posted=1#post1035112
Can somebody try it and post the screenshots please? I'm so looking forward to using it with my Pocket Loox T830 (not arrived yet)
Screenshots/Need some help!
Screenshots are found here:
http://discussion.treocentral.com/showpost.php?p=1106882&postcount=15
NOTE: Some of us are having issues. We CANNOT send an SMS to an email address. We get an error message:
"Could not send message. The message center number or the email center number is invalid. Please contact the wireless operator."
Now, in the SMS app, if you go to Menu --> Options --> Advanced tab
Network Configuration/Manual/Edit...
You'll see spots for "message center number" and "email center number" and both are blank. When you put in a number (such as found here: http://www.smsfre.com/SMS-Mesaging-Centers.htm ) they do not stick after hitting "OK".
Any help/ideas?
Hello people,
I wish to send a text message (SMS) to all of my contacts. My contact list is about 2000, so I guess I will need a software in order to send a message to all of them, because if I am not mistaken if using the MS software for msgs, will crash the phone as will try to load all msgs to memory.
Any of you who knows how to solve my problem, or knows a software? Please....
Thank you in advance.

Another forum member - t0flus - posted an application called "Group SMS" which may do what you're after....I'm presuming you could send the message group by group (if your contacts are in groups?).
The program can be found by searching for "Group SMS" or by clicking >HERE<.
I've not tried t0flus' program myself, but I'm certain that throwing 2000 contacts at the standard MS SMS program will kill it!!
Hope that helps!
Mark.
That is exactly what I was doing using my Nokia 7610, but I thought I would be able to find a software that would "do the grouping" automatically for me.
Thank you anyhow.
You see, I just think that a software can send for example 10 - 10 text messages, until all of it is sent and then display a message say sent to all or something like that.
Maybe try getting a PC program like Jeyo Mobile Commander and using that to send the SMS? It drags a list of contacts and messages over via ActiveSync and you can use the app to send SMSes, backup/restore your SMS inbox, backup/restore your contacts etc... I've sent SMSes from it before when I've been too lazy to pick my phone up
Here's another Group SMS app that allows you to choose one or more Contact Groups to send a text message. Works in a different way to the other app mentioned here and one or the other might suit your application better.

Great! Thank you people... I will try, and I hope that one of those will help me do it by the press of one buttons, because you have no idea how difficult and annoying it is to have to split your contacts to hundreds and send them that way.
While there are a plethora of sms backup programs out there, I've yet to find one that will allow me to add text messages onto my phone. I have a number of sms backups that I'd like to put on my phone, but since some are in text files, others are in bitpim format from an LG phone, and some have had the timestamp completely screwed up in the backup process thanks to Jeyo, I'd like a way to enter them manually. Anyone know of a way to do this? I asked dotfred of PIMBackup, but he said he has no plans to include such a feature anytime soon. Anyone interested in making such a program?
Can someone post links of where i can get 8525 SMS downloads
bumpppppppppppp
bumppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
Your question is confusing, are you wanting the sms program? Every rom I have tried so far has sms included. Maybe give a little more info on what your wanting and someone could point you in the right direction.
Confusing boog321 is an understatement ,more like a totally weird request, are you on about picture messages and being able to receive them or just receiving standard txt messages.
Or are you on about transferring your sms messages to your PC from your Wizard? If so use PPCPim Backup or use Jeyo Mobile Extender which will allow you to transfer the sms's to a folder in outlook.
As boog321 stated please clarify what it is exactly that you wish to do.
