if you r using android go to>message setting>push settings>uncheck receive push msgs
You can change you message setting option.. but i think it is very easy...
i don't seem to be able to get a straight answer to this wap push thing in the net. basically if i disable wap push, does it also disable other thing like sms and messages? i like to stop my telco or others sending me junk messages, but obviously do not want to disable sms and messages. are they related?
what operating system you on on your hd2 .
have you tried getting your provider to block/stop the junk.
oh, sorry, mister b. i found this thread through searching. i don't have a hd2 but a motorola defy running miui rom. it has a setting to allow/disallow push wap and i was wondering if i should disallow it. just trying to understand what this push wap setting does.
edit: in the message advance settings page, under the "allow wap push" line it says "allow receiving and notifying wap push messages (si/sl). my question is if i uncheck this setting would i be missing any genuine messages that might have come from my customers, friends and families?
Should not effect basic sms or mms sending/recieving but I expect turning it off will not eliminate all the junk messages & if that is the case your best bet is call Telco customer services & get them flag you for no junk/spam messaging.
You may try to change it in message settings.
thanks

I was wondering if there were any other mms hacks that work on the mogul other than the widely known one at ppcgeeks, cause it only works when it wants to and I would like to try a different one.
Lately there have been server issues where it just doesn't want to send any picturemails... heh, seems like Sprint is try to crack down on it
yea, and that sucks cause I tend to send alot of pics to other peoples cell phones that dont have email on their phones, or dont know how to use it.
well I figured something out!, I turned off my data conection and turned on my wifi(thanks to my wireless antenna) and triend sending again and it went off without a hitch! Damn Sprint!
Hmm, I don't even have MMS in my Mogul Inbox apps, only Text Message, Outlook, and my email account. How do you guys send MMS then?
IN my Cingular 8525, I have MMS in the Inbox apps.

I found a workaround/fix that has it working.
Change you DNS from Sprint's to Open DNS.
see : http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6...et-access.html
Then it should work every time.
here use this thread, it works.
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6700-xv6700/82107-wanna-speed-up-your-internet-access-3.html
mms works fine for me, had to softboot twice but always had to softboot twice with wisebar on my 6700, out of curiosity why would sprint want to prevent you from sending picmail when you are paying for power vision? "seems like Sprint is try to crack down on it"

Not sure if it's just me, but with that program you have to already know the person's number to enter it in? Is there a way to pull up the address book and select a number?

What about Alltel's ROM... they offer picture/video mail on their 6800s... can anyone extract the cabs out of it??
I don't know about anyone else, but the MMS app seemed to really slow down my phone... sometimes the messaging application would freeze up entirely when it was installed!
So, I found that at least for Sprint users, you can send an email to <phone number>@pm.sprint.com, and it will show up as an MMS message on that user's phone!
This is a much more robust way to send pic mms, and my phone is much happier now without the MMS app.

they are not cabs to extract, it is not installed from the extended_rom but instead part of the ROM.
if someone else knows what files and regs are needed i could extract them and build a cab. i had considered trying to track them down and/or pulling out files/regs used in the mms cab from ppcgeeks. i could try this but i have a feeling the mms builtin to alltels has stuff all over that would be hard to track down.
it is arcsoft mms though just looks like a diff version. installing the ppcgeeks arcsoft mms cab on alltel does not produce working mms and this is part of my feeling that this version is layed out quite differently.

This is the exact same thing I experienced with the mms cab from arcsoft. My phone was sluggish and whenever I tried to go into my text message shortcut it would take up to a minute to load up.
I'll go without for now too, until we can find a way around this.
This is the OLD WAY
I use the old MMS Cab file from Verizon 6700. It's very simple to make it work. First install the Cab , then the cab text menu. after the soft reset, just go into the Arcsoft files registry and change the Enableserveredit ot 1 , default is 0. Once that is done, go to the MMS config and change to sprintpcs and the address also to sprintpcs. then thats it. This is just a brieft description if anyone wants to try it.
If anyone want me to attached the file and go step by step, just post the reply here and i'll get to it. Reason is because i don't know if everyone knows about it or not, so i won't waste time posting the files.
You will have an MMS in Messaging, YOU can send it from there, but when you received MMS pix/video it is received in the Text Message account. Basically this MMS account enable you to send MMS pix/video and receiveds then in your Text Messaging account. When receiving MMS, it will send you a link to the pix/video directly. I know on the Alltel, it takes you to the sprint messaging website and you have to log in to see pix/video. The setup above as i described, takes you directly to the pix/video and do not need to log in.
FYI:....send MMS using phone numbers not e-mail addy
Right now after doing the resolution hack, my MMS won't send out, giving me an error that says my image size of 16k or whatever is over the 0k limit? I can change my resolution to the lowest setting and it's still giving me the same error.
I just switched to the even more plus plan, and now can no longer send MMS messages or e-mails. I can receive them though, and I do have Internet access too. I can also send SMS messages too. It's just MMS and e-mail I can not send. The MMS messages send status go from 0% to 99% and then I get an generic error.
I tried several ROMS from the standard shipping ROM to a 6.5/Sense 2.5, and none worked. I upgraded my radio too and that did not help.
I called T-mobile, but so far they have been little help. The said they keep seeing errors and clearing them, but still no luck.

Thank you, thank out!
The T-Mobile settings always start as epc.tmobile.com. That doesn't seems to work and changing them to wap.voicestream.com as you said fixes it.
My real problem was that I was not (under settings...connections)...
...going to advanced (tab at bottom)
...then select networks button (box)
...and then switch to T-Mobile MMS on the drop down menu.
I was just changing T-mobile Data only and missed the drop down box and MMS.
I also may not have restarted, but it is working now!
I am now off to try the other suggestion so that I do not have teeny tiny thumbnails in my MMS messages.
Hi,

Hello
Yes I had the problem @ 1st could send sms and mms but not receive either back
I did the swap to GSM under sms settings this seems to have fixed mine
mines a sim free from Handtec using a 2 + years old sim o2 card
hi, where is the setting you talk about? I can't seem to find it.
thanks
Hello
Comm manager > phone settings > menu > advanced network > sms service
then set to GSM only
good luck .... I not receive any old messages tho ...so will only work for new I think
It took bout 30mins for 1st mms to come in ..now there instant ish
Just checked mine, it's set to "GSM preferred".
As far as I'm aware have only been sent one picture message so far but that came through fine. Don't believe I've missed any text messages either.
I'm currently forced to use WiFi instead of data to access the internet. Since I'm now leaving WiFi on all the time, I can no longer send SMS messages. And I'm not sure I'm receiving them. Is that normal? Is there some sort of setting I need to change? Or is this the old SMS bug from the past?
Thanks.

Pretty sure you have to have data access to send SMS, as it's phone number based, so phone service is required.
there shouldn't be a problem sending and receiving txts when wifi is on.I surf over wifi all day long with no phone issues.

The strange thing is that NOW I'm receiving and able to send with wi-fi on.
Guess I'll have to turn on "Request delivery report" for now and hope I receive my messages.
It's odd that after 3 months, I've suddenly experienced the dreaded SMS bug.
BTW, can anyone tell me how to access the out box to see if the unsent messages are there?
-Bob-
on the messaging tab,
all messages - menu - settings - traditional mode. makes it easier to switch between in and out box etc.
the outbox usually keeps the messages those could not be sent ... if there 're any of it so ur suppose is ture..and i think there is a number u can define to send a message...not sure about hd2 but xperia x1 my phone automatically get the config...

I agree.
SMS was never designed to be instantaneous, and networks will argue this case.
Wait a few days beforehand, then ask your network provider if they do not appear, it may be a 'stuck' SMS in the network's system causing issues.
I've known a text message to take 363 days to arrive...

The messages that I sent at 8:00 this morning, that were not received, suddenly flooded into the recipient's phones at 11:00. Since they weren't sitting on my phone, as far as I could tell, I guess T-Mobile was hanging on to them. Odd. That's never happened before.

Does anyone know how to prevent phone from receiving text messages? Is there any software that can do that. I don't use text messaging and hate to be charge a fee for receiving text messages.
Thank all in advance,

Give cc a call. those filter softwares reject the sms but your service provider still charge you.
you need to have your carrier block them.
you should be able to do it online (if with tmous), as a free addon service.
is there an app that does this for u
then when i swap back to winmo, i receive them?
im trying to centralize my SMS into my winmo ^_^
any other suggestion?

There is no other solution. Anything sitting on your phone is not going to save you from being charged for it, as you get charged when the message hits the network, not when it hits your phone.

The only thing I can think of is by using Airplane Mode. But you won't get calls, bluetooth wouldn't work, wifi wouldn't work, etc.. I don't think there is any way to single out text messages.
What about going into network settings, and erasing the entry for the MMSC server?

This would prevent your device from getting them...but because the text is still going through T-Mobiles server side, you would still see a charge on your bill for the message
