unable to open email attachments - HD2 General

hi, just got my phone, i am having trouble with a few things but I have found most fixes.
One thing I cannot understand is that my emails are getting automatically deleted.
I forgot mmy USB cable today at work and wanted to get a CAB to my phone but when i recieve the message and download the attachment it refuses to open or save as, then the message just disapears from my inbox. I have tried sending the CAB, renaming the CAB as.txt and RARing it up, no joy.
Any ideas?

Error Message when trying to send attachments w/ PPC2003

I finally managed to send and receive e-mails using my ISP's POP3 account. All fine with plain text. The moment I try to attach ANY file with any size I get the following error message:
Message attachment cannot be added. Check to make sure the correct storage card is in the device. If your device stores attachments on a storage card, you must insert a storage card to add any files to messages"
Aside of this being a very enlighting message, the files I`ve been tryimg to add as attachments were residing on my main memory in the my documents folder!!!
Any clues???
Michael
is it set to store attachments on the sdcard ?
if it is then i suspect that it require a sdcard even if the files you add are not from the sdcard
because attachments of the outbox will prob still be stores on the sdcard
Yeah, I have a SDCard. But I get the message when trying to send attachments from the SD Card or from the Mai Memory. I haven't unchecked the "store on sd card" option. Will do that and try again!
Thanks
Hi everyone!
Anybody has a guess as to how send attachments with the I-mate?
Hy all.
I have the same problem.
The first time the message appeared was after upgrading to 1.72 rom.
Now I have changed to 2003se but still I cannot send mails with attachments (even if I try to store them in my sd).
Any help, please?
Impossible to send e-mail Attachments over a GPRS Connection
Hi Folks
After a long abscense and several hick-ups I finally managed to get ROM1.72 up and running. Almost turned my I-mate to paper weight! BUT.. Still can't send any e-mail with attachments. Does anybody have a clue?
Cheers!

Hi everyone,
I had the same problem and after a bit of experimentation, and getting really annoyed :x I managed to fix the problem on my device - as I really couldn't be bothered doing a hard reset.
Open up Pocket dbExplorer and delete the pmailAttachs database
I'd suggest you take a copy of the pmailAttachs database first - so you can restore it if this method doesn't work for you
MCEITLIN, you're saying that after a hard reset (assumed since you changed ROM versions) it still didn't work? If so are you performing any kind of restore, for files or anything?
Hope this helps.....
btw....depending on your settings I'd suggest disabling the 'store attachments on storage card' option first - just incase this is also a factor.
Error sending e-mail attachments
I found the file PmailAttachs but I have no means to either copy it, cut it or erase it. Do I need a special tool for that?
Neither exploroe nor Pocket explorer or Sprite's Pocket Monitor aloow me to reach the file!
Cheers

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Pocket dbExplorer allows you to delete databases - as well as editing them. Remember to take a backup of the database just in case

Thanx for this tip! It worked like a charm on my Qtek 9090!
Thanks, that solution also fixed the problem for me with M1000. Now can send attachments using pop3 gmail account.
Good bit of detective work there, Webspider. I was about to give up on this one.
Glad this has helped people
I suppose now the only problem is making sure that you don't charge up a huge GPRS bill....lol
I know I use about 3 or 4MB a day...so glad my data is FREE
Cheers WebSpider - You're a star!
I have this problem but cannot find the file - could someone please tell me where to look?
Hi there,
although i deleted the file, i still have sending-attachments problem (on Qtek 2020i with wm2003). Any ideas?
so be it - manemoi

Problem sending photos with Album

I recently upgraded my Imate Jam to rom version 1.12 from 1.06. I used to be able to send emails with video or photos using the album program. Now when I try sending photos/videos via messaging using album, it seems to freeze or nothing happens. I did the Big Storage hack, so do I need to install one of those cab files to make this start working?
probably a good idea. I believe the MMS software is installed from the Extended ROM, because it certainly isn't part of the 2003se messaging app as standard.
One of them will need to be installed.....On my t-mobile branded magician, it was called...
"CAB-Acrosoft-MMS-2.5.0.28-ENU-MagicianAKU2.6-13May06.CAB"
should be something similar in your Extended ROM which will then allow you to send them.
Of course, it could be something else entirely!!! :?
Thanks!
Cool! I have that same cab file, so I may just do that! I even tried going into the messaging program and tried to add an attachment, which didn't work either. I got an error message about inserting a correct storage card, but my video was located in the main memory.
Not working!
Well, I installed the MMS Arcsoft cab file from the extended rom. It added the ability to send through MMS in Messaging, but it still cannot send photos/videos by clicking on the "send via email" selection in Album. I can't even add an attachment using Messaging. I get an error message stating that I need to insert the correct storage card. Can anyone tell me what I should do? I did not have this problem when I was using the Rom version 1.06 for my Imate Jam. I was able to just add an attachment or send videos via the Album program. In 1.12.10 rom, it is not working!
Does anyone have any solution? I saw one post where someone said they deleted their pmail attachment directory in the registry, and it worked for them; but I tried it and it didn't change the problem. I can't figure out how to add attachments to my emails.
Try to install all cabs from extended rom one by one and check for results every instalation.
I installed all the cab files but it still did not let me add attachments via messaging or album. However, I did a hard reset and tried attachments - it worked perfectly. I am not sure what caused the problem, but I hope it isn't the BT patch. I plan on doing a restore w/ Sprite Backup and hope it still works.

error sending and receiving picture messages

i hard spl'd my phone and now i am unable to send or receive picture messages under mms.....it asks me to download but is unable to download or send after countless tries.....anybody have this problem or know a fix?
It is usually the Arcsoft software. I use this copy of Arcsoft I renamed it so I can not verify the source and give them credit so my apologies to them but they were from these forums.
i installed the attachment...but now under my messages i only have text message and no mms...how do i get those?
did you reboot the device?
If all the options are missing you might need to install 2 cabs in succession to get all the files to make it completely operable.
Please reboot and post you results.
i installed it twice and rebooted and i still only have text messages and add new e-mail account no mms
Ok try this pack I put together for ya.
http://rapidshare.com/files/196871710/MMS_Fix.zip.html
Read the "README" please.
Please also follow up here if this works or not.
still no luck...even if i send a picture messages withing my text message screen a message appears saying unable to send message
Did you run the network wizard?
yes i did and rebooted....is it because i dont have the rom justme?
No it should not be that.
What ROM you using?
Is your MMS interface complete? Do you have MMS options?
on the last attachment...is the gateway and server adress the same for every phone? i think that is my problem
the rom is canonyang hard spl wm6...and i tried the server thing and it still doesnt work....this is really pissin me off...do you know of a hard spl version that does have a working mms feature....
You only HardSPL once. After that you install roms. This is my understanding how it works and has worked for me this way.
mms plz help
can sum plz plz help my i tryed everything and i dont have the mms opp at all on my phone
