WM6 T-Mobile US Beta Build 17224.0.1.0 Calling Home? - HTC Excalibur

After every restart, I receive the following text message:
<sisr:RZufTBoOhCcgkA5IVA=:1:1:0>http://70.103.79.209/;+447624806186;XXXXXXXXXXX;F9tKNrMDROAD+YTw1/MEnPqRqbKkjkQ
The XXXXXXXXXXX is my phone number. The tangled bits of alpha after the sisr: tag and my phone number change every time.
I’ve tried to break apart this cryptic SMS message into parts to better understand it.
First was the <sisr: variable >tag, I’ve never seen this before. I googled and was able to find the following documents.

Internet backbone provider with long haul capabilities. Hmm…
Next was the country code +44 (UK). I called the number. “Your international call cannot be completed BEEP BEEP BEEP”. Dead end. No such number. No luck there trying to identify.
Conclusion? I don’t know. I’ve never seen this nomenclature before in xml or html.
Comments?

I get this same freaking msg with every reboot and changes each time to a diff msg. Not sure we shud call that company.

I accidently went to http://70.103.79.208/ by accident. (typo) and came up with some site about "SNAPin Software"
(possibly http://www.snapin.com/)
New feature in wm6? The address book sync thing?

I got the same message once, while playing around with the Excalibur i deinstalled the pre-installed software, and now i do not get any more messages.

Which pre-installed software
Tag,
Which software did you uninstall to make the default boot SMS message go away?
Tchuss,
jromney

Can not say, which software, because i deinstalled ALL preinstalled SW.

I didn't uninstall anything and I stopped receiving the txt's after 10 or so reboots.
Hope that helps.

\Program Files\SNAPin, i tried to delete this folder, two files could not be deleted, sihome.exe and siwatcher.exe, so i renamed them and deleted them after reboot.
There also exists a registry entry, HKLM\Software\SnapIn\SMS\Inercepts\<sisr

I tried to delete the SyncManager software link out of the \windows\startup folder and that didn't help.
After I deleted the Voice Command.lnk out of the StartUp, I only got 1 text message.
AND WHY DOES MY HOMESCREEN KEEP SETTING TO THE T-MOBILE BLUE?!?!?
GRRRRRR...
All of these happen after the device boots up. Something is running to initialize everything back to default.

Rename T-MobileBlue.home.xml to T-MobileBlue2.home.xml and your favourite Home screen to T-MobileBlue.home.xml ;-)

Have you got any kind of Silent SMS traffic coming to your phone ?
I have the T-Mobile mail manager sending silent SMS triggers to my phone, and I noticed that the SMS's it sends out (identified with 701) were not being processed silently - but were showing up in my inbox.
I have reverted back to the stock build too.

are you using the msn messanger program? i noticed that when i sent our received emails using the windows live account that test messages were being sent so i will sign out of that program

I just checked and I have 17 sms messages sent since installing yesterday. I haven't used any mail or IM program or anything that would rely on SMS.
I am NOT pleased

Hello,
do you have a taskmanager (e.g from binarys) installed ? Which processes (not programms) are running on your phone ?
Thanks, Newchurch

These processes are running

Ok, so I reloaded WM6, and have a dead SIM in, so it won't text/sms. Loaded Binary's Task Manager, and the following "prpcesses" are running:
NK.exe
filesys.exe
device.exe
fexplore.exe
telshell.exe
gwes.exe
My5MsgCente..
connmgr.ege

cprog.exe
repplog.exe
SPTaskMgrEN..
siWatcher.exe
siHome.exe

My5Service.exe

voicecmd.exe
Which one is the guilty party?

Palm Threaded APP and WM6

has anyone gotten this to work? I havent tried a flat cab install to the device, but i did try to integrate it into a rom and was getting incompatibilities with the tmail.exe program... Im not even sure if the palm threaded app will even work with WM6 due to the structure of the mail app...

I have used it on every flavor. Using the Black Edition right now with the app installed on the storage card.
ok thanks.. i must have been missing something when trying to integrate it... i will look further!
The key is installing first I believe. I haven't had any issues when it is the first app installed.
it very well could be... building it into the rom does work for the most part, it just throws weird errors here and there.. i will look deeper now that i know it works..
I've gotten it working. Installed on device. Takes up some space but after manually setting it up with Cingular numbers it works fine. Have't really used MMS but I never used them before. SMS is working great.
sms receipts
Does it do SMS receipts under WM6? It would not under WM5.

Palm App - sends repeat msgs?
Has anybody had the problem of after you've sent someone a txt msg, the application seems to send it again 2 or 3 times at different times.
Ie. person gets the msg ok once I've sent it. If i restart my phone/soft reset or sometimes just re-launching the app, it will resend mgs that have been previously sent again. --> to which i get sms back saying 'you've sent this 3 times' from my friends.
I don't know much about changing or modifying settings so i've only installed the application as is and havn't altered anything. not interested in using MMS on it (rather use the old app), but don't want it to keep sending txts - its costing a fortune.
Any ideas?

It comes from closing the application too early before its done sending the message completely. I added it to my excluded apps in HTC Task manager so its always running in the background. No problems since.

No problems at all on WM6. I am using VP3G's ROM.
Was the problem of sending a picture message over 300k ever fixed? I had to remove it off my phone because I couldn't send my 330k picture messages which is the standard picture size when took with the phone.

Official TMO WM6 Problems

Just thought I would start a thread for problems/annoyances people have noticed with the upgrade to WM6 (RUU_Excalibur_TMO_US_1.22.531.4_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Ship.exe)
Here is a start for me:
- The memory leak problem is just as bad as the beta I installed over a month ago.
- The homescreen reverts back to the TMobile Default Blue on a soft reset (you must rename to fix)
- The registry hack to disable the beep when you initiate a call doesn't seem to work (didn't work for me in the beta either)
Not sure what you mean by 'memory leak', but I found deleting the Voice Command shortcut from the startup folder frees up a lot of memory. Personally, I find the number 1 feature of Voice Command to be frustration, so I don't need it loading at bootup.

Try renaming the tmobile default blue homescreen xml to something else, or delete it outright. Im pretty sure thats the homescreen that defaults back when you restart the phone. I would like to state for the record that I have octrotalk installed, and have customized my homescreen with octrotalk. It essentially creates a new homescreen with all the plugins from the current and adds octrotalk to the new one, setting it. When I restart my phone it always comes up as my octrotalk screen, regardless of how the restart was done (battery removal, smarttoolkit restart, whatever.) Additionally I don't have any memory leak issues. I run quite a few apps at a time, word, excel, IE, octrotalk, outlook, a few games in and out, occasionally zatelnet, and the filemanager. I also generally close all apps Im not using anymore, but when I close all the apps I opened to run, I usually recapture around 12megs free ram. When I start up from fresh boot, Im at just under 15 megs. Atfter closing apps in the default wm5 tmobile rom, I would usually end up with 9-10 free megs.
Unless someone else can confirm that the official rom does this same stuff, I feel like you may not have upgraded your rom.
I'm having problems with mail since upgrading to WM6. I can only reveive my .mac mail, I can't send out. I've tried everything to fix it, changed the ports on the smtp setup on the Dash and still can't send out mail. This is so frustrating! I didn't have this problem in the WM6 Beta or WM5.
I'm getting absolutely no email on my wife's dash after this new ROM. I try to set up the email and at first I get a warning about Roaming (I'm not). And then it just refuses to connect to download her emails from our POP3 account.
It' so strange these email problems we're having. I am not having any problems with gmail, or aol for sending and receiving, only my .mac mail (I can only receive, not send email). I rely on this as it's my main email client. I never had any problems before the "official upgrade".
Are you all using the T-Zones plan with the jury-rigged proxy settings? That might explain it. They're moving towards T-Zones being available via the WAP browser and widdling away at other features being accessable without paying for different service levels...
im just so glad there is a forum for the dash/excalibur here instead of mixing it with the MDA like HowardForums.
Over there there is about 2million "official" threads thare are never official to begin with. lol
If I use T-Zones button and go through the wap browser and go to my email I can send and receive fine within the t-zones wap browser. The problem is with the messaging app itself that won't let me send out email with my .mac account. Even if I have the phone turned off and am using WiFi I still get "the message cannot be sent" errors.
What else can I remove from the running programs to free up memory?
I don't use the voice command either. I would like to use the live messenger but it takes up so much memory.
I wish I could just take memory off my memory card and use it as phone memory.. Or even have a option like pocket pcs do and use the program memory as system memory...
Grrr I hate havin a laggy phone, reminds me of XP on a 266mhz computer..

I use PowerControl+OMAP from http://mobile.surrealnetworks.com/DashApps.htm to overclock my phone. It overclocks the processor to 240mhz when its in use and throttles it down to 180mhz when its in standby.
There is another issue with Windows Media Player and streaming Video (e.g Orb, Videos from Windows Media Mobile, etc) where the screen rotates 90 degrees when you zoom the video to full screen.

What you describe is how T-Zones work -- if you pay more, you can do mail within the messaging app. If you pay $5.99, you can do mail via the WAP browser. Which service plan do you have?

It should have nothing to do with me having the T-Zones $5.99 plan I can send and receive with aol, and gmail with the plan, only receive with .mac, I can't even send out mail using WiFi. I was on the phone with T-Mobile today and they tried troubleshooting. They said that for some reason the smtp is getting blocked with my .mac account, they think I should call Apple. I even asked if it had anything to do with me being on the T-Zones plan, and the rep said no, it should work through WiFi since I'm not using T-Mobile's network.

The "Problem with the homescreen reverting back" is not a WM6 problem, it's a My Faves (My 5) feature. Basically, every time you turn your phone on, the My5 service detects whether you have MyFaves and changes your homescreen to the proper setting. The settings for this are saved in the registry.
The location is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\My5\Homescreen
There are two values, On and Off. Just change those to your homescreen, or try removing them altogether (haven't tried that yet).
You could also try removing the My5MsgCenter.lnk from the startup folder, but I don't know if that's the one that reads from that registry key
ha, for some reason chaznet takes every opportunity to bash the 5.99 tzones plan. i have it now with wm6, i can go to every website, i can check my hotmail by going to www.hotmail.com, and the internet seems even faster than with wm5. so it still works, and it doest seem like its going away anytime soon

xpress mail and WM6 baked ROMS ... FIXED

I am using VP3g's ROM and am having some xpress mail trouble. I like xpress mail as it provides better functionality than a basic pop setup. I am having three issues.
1: I couldnt find the xpress mail that came with the phone. I searched cingular's site and found what I think to be the correct version. Dont remember the exact title of the file, but it said "WM5" in it. Does anybody have the cab for xpress mail that cam e with the un-official "official" release of WM6?
2: When I try to connect, i get this error: Error S7122: Cannot connect to the server. Please check your connection and try again" ... my connection is fine. nothing else has trouble. The passwords are fine too. When i first set up xpress mail, it pulls all of my messages down no problem... but never works again.
3: When i try to send a message, it will stick in the outbox. But... the person I sent the message to will get copy after copy after copy after copy ... until i remove it from my outbox.
It's a pretty frustrating problem. I'd like to use xpress mail (even though I know the push features are crummy at best) but can't seem to get it right. My issues may be resolved with a simple cab from the lates release from HTC/ATT. If anyone has that and wants to upload it, i will be glad to try it : )
thanks for any help,
Jason
UPDATE (WORKING):
I signed up for SEVEN's beta program. I was able to download a cab for what appears to be the new xpressmail client. This cab was marked intended for the 8125.. but, it works and it works VERY well. Even better than the old one with the REAL official ROM. Cab is attached to this post. hope it helps someone.
J~
I'm using Xpress Mail with the Black Shadow IV WM6 ROM, without any issues. Works well as a matter of fact. I didn't have to do anything "special" to get it to work. Just installed the client on my PC and the 8525 per normal install instructions.
got the issue fixed.
J~
thank you i like xpress mail
Nice lead, I hadn't heard about 7 and it's perfect for what I need. Thanks!
-Jason
gr8hifi, what did you use for the "connector id" on the user name, password, connector id screen (unless it's personal and not some universal setting)? I assume you got that when you signed up for the beta program?
I've run the reg hack to disable the roaming warning but xpressmail won't delete messages out of my pc's outlook on wm6...they'll delete on the phone but that delete won't get sent back to my pc's outlook. If I flash back to the signed rom off HTC's site that the 8525 came with (so running wm5) it works great and the delete replicates within seconds. I've tried this on quite a few wm6 roms but no joy.
Does your beta version replicate the deletes back to your pc?
thanks!
oh if you still need the xpressmail.cab that you get from the "Get XpressMail" PIE link I'll ftp it up to the upload site
thanks for the program!
has anyone with a comcast email account successfully get SEVEN to push and send email out?
i had to configure my comcast email account through the POP configuration, and then had to manually configure the incoming/outgoing settings. once i did that, it successfully connected to SEVEN. i have no problem sending emails, however, i cannot recieve incoming emails. anyone have any thoughts?
thanks!
I'm using this with my gmail account. For my user name and pwd, i just put in my gmail information. It syncs the mail from my gmail to my phones inbox. If I delete from the phone's inbox, it will delete from my gmail account. I do not have it connected to my desktop email. The only thing I do is, at night, i open my desktop. Then, all of the messages that I left on the phone are downloaded to my desktop. I can then delete them from my phone and they will be deleted from the gmail servers. This is the setup that I am using.
I wish I could be of more help.

Is There A Real Fix For Disappearing Email Accounts?

POP Email accounts and elements of Network setting disappear once in a while.
It happens with all the new ROMs. I've done the mUn thing, where one opens a connection, stops it and restarts. But the accounts still disappear, sometimes after weeks of use, sometimes after just a few days.
There is an app to resurrect the missing email account, but after you still have to input servers and address. Just very annoying while traveling.
What is the damned problem and is there a permanent solution?
I have changed the file registry type (File based registry) from "Hive" to "File" using tweaks2k2 and it seems ok, someone else needs to cross check it
please explain
I also would avoid this repetitive problem , could you please how to try , step by step , in simple words ?
thanks
Thanks, taiseer999! I just changed to File, keeping my fingers crossed. BTW, how long have you used it after the change without loss of settings?
tower5, you need tweaks2k2 (it has 3 changes trial and go to System Tricks/Collection 5. Check File Based Registry (WM5).
Hopefully this works (it sounds like it should.)
P.S. Perhaps. if this really works, the ROM chefs can integrate it into the ROMs. Is there any disadvantage to using File rather than Hive?
I´ve been following all the steps that mun_rus wrote down and after the last upgrade I didn´t do it right away so I lost my e-mail accounts quite a few times and when I try to set the same account up with the same name and settings the pda pops up a message saying that there´s another account with the same name and I don´t know where and I don´t see it.

It doesn't work, unfortunately:-(
Checked mail last night, a little later went to check again, and the email account had disappeared.
This is just crazy....
What is the reason this is happening? To ALL the new ROMs?
Why MS don't Fix this Big Problem?

POP Email accounts and elements of Network setting disappear once in a while.
It happens with all the new ROMs. I've done the mUn thing, where one opens a connection, stops it and restarts. But the accounts still disappear, sometimes after weeks of use, sometimes after just a few days.
There is an app to resurrect the missing email account, but after you still have to input servers and address. Just very annoying while traveling.
What is the damned problem and is there a permanent solution?

yes, mailrepair.exe do recover the mail account.
but the main problems is not only about mail account, it is a datebase lost or cert lost.
even u recover the mail account and setup all the password again to make the wm system continue working, it became unstable anyway.
once account lost, best way out is hard-reset.
in daily use, avoid to reset the handset as much as possible.

It's a security feature of wm6, bugged of course.
Disabling file system cache can help (I've never lost email account until now) but you still have to take care to close PO before a soft reset.
Ciao
been using RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.18_6275_1.46.30.11_108_Ship for a good while and the e-mail accounts don't even think of disappearing...so there you go...
I have also used Dobod-wwe in my HTC since it was released and never had issues with mail accounts. Also tried pdaviet and Bepe but original dobod was most stable for my HTC.
Still......Issue

just started using ax3l's lite rom, wi-fi settings and mail accounts seemed to stay there no problem untill I installed network wizard. After that everything disappears after every reset. Could that be the cause....?
just when I got most of my apps neatly reinstalled and all....has to be done all over again...at times like these I really have to fight the temptation to throw the thing against the wall...Thankfully I got an N95 as well which never loses settings so back into the pocket the P3600 goes, hail the N95
will update on that settings /mail accs business when I get the nerve to reinstall everything again
Yay, got my accounts back! Thanks!
I'm not going to pretend to know what I'm talking about, but I can tell you that in the past, it was mentioned that it had something to do with the Old and New Kernels. The Old one (WM5) was fine, while the new one (WM6) is not. At least that's what I THINK I remember.
Anways, for whatever reason, my ROMs don't have this problem. Here are a couple that I know avoid it:
[KITCHEN+ROMS][WWE][Jun.28.2010] WM6.5.1 23504 - WM6.5.5 23569 M2D Blue Re-Visit
[KITCHENS+ROMS][WWE][ITA][Nov.04.2009] WM6.5 23504 - Sorry NOT FOR P3600i! OFFLINE
[KITCHENS+ROMS] [WWE] [10.27.2009] WM6.5 23081 - Sorry NOT FOR P3600i!
I have used the same Kernel in Most all of my Kitchens, so maybe that is it...

Can't read text messages on Dash 6.1 - Only Header

I searched all the forums about this issue but all I can find is things dealing with setting up text messaging. I have no network problems with data, text, or voice I just used the HTC network wizard.
Whenever I get a text message I can see the the beginning of the text in the selection screen but when I click on it the message is blank? So I can't read the whole text. I searched this Forum but couldn't find any people with similar problems. It seems to send them fine I just can't read the whole message for some strange reason. I have been clearing my memory and then flashing my Tmob Dash for the last three Kavana releases, they all exhibit this behavior. Any help appreciated with my problem.
What Rom are you using?

Kavana 080408. The texts that I get show up on the main screen with a little bit of the text but when I click on them they don't show anything. I tried pressing all the buttons I can but it doesn't seem to do anything.
See is UNthreading them helps.
Uhm, just a silly guess here, but next time you're on the blank screen, click menu (right softkey) > 5 (Folders) > change to inbox, at least if it's not on inbox already. My friend changed his to sent and couldn't figure out why he couldn't see new ones either hehe
I looked everywhere in the messaging app and also the regular phone settings I don't see anything for unthreading. Also MMS can be viewed and sent normally. Just whenever I try to send or read a recieved text I have problems. When I try to send a text it doesn't let me type anything in at all. Not recipient and not the body of the text.
No I have already gone to all the folders. The inbox folder is where I can see the messages. You can read the begining of them, and who it is from but when you select one it doesn't show anything.
I had the same issue before, the problem disappeared after I uninstalled CE-Star (Chinese-reading problem).. do you have it installed?

Check in Accessibility Folder for unthreading.
DON'T Turn off the Damn active x
I finally fixed this problem.
I had a problem with WM 6.1 will only showing the headers and not allowing you to read the contents of : Text messages, Emails, MMS. This errors would also not allow you to write emails or text messages.
I thought Kavana's ROM had some big error with it but no one else was complaining. I downloaded Ricky's rom but same problem. So this weeked I fooled around with my phone believing it was some program I was installing. Even though I only install Google Maps, TCPMP, YGo, and Windows Live. I would install something then restart. I tried installing them one by one then it seemed to work but still after a time was becoming broken. I thought it had something to do with synching corrupted contact data. So I didn't synch but after a while it still came back.
This morning I finally realized that if you turn off active x it breaks the email and text which I assume both use IE active x The bad setting is.....
Main Settings Menu->IE Settings->Advanced Options -> NEVER TURN OFF ACTIVE X CONTROLS.
I think if Kavana, my personal hero, rolls another ROM you should take out this option.

I am glad to hear that you fixed and resolved your problem, and haha I hope that Kavana makes another Rom, he is awesome. But then again I got to thank Ricky for this rom to I love it.
hello i am having the exact same problem i checked all advice given i.e. make sure it is on inbox folder, check ie active x is enabled, and no change.
any advice
also when u do see the message headers like yianaki but when you select the message and then press a soft key it says"message cannot be signed and/or encrypted"
You need an encryption key for your email and you don't have it on your dash email, maybe. Just a guess. Is there documentation as to what you need to set up your email. What steps did you need to take to get your email on your home computer.
i actually have kavana 6.1 version 080408 so i just used the connection setup for US tmobile. and it was working previous to this problem. i did a hard reset now and its back to normal for now
SWEEEET!
Thanks "Y" you saved my life, I had the same problem. Keep Active x controllers checkmarked "On".
change IE option.
I had the same problem only can view the header of a msg, but can
t see the content. Here is what I did to solve it: go to IE\tools\option\general\encoding\change to Unicode
Cant Open Text Message.
Hi, I'm from Jamaica, I bought my HTC S621 from Digicel Jamaica [here]. I followed the instructions and installed WM6.1 80408 Kavana and it was totally amazing, I did it on Saturday and it worked great, everything was working GREAT. On Sunday I realized I was unable to open my text messages for viewing. When I click Text Message, the colour wheel shows and it starts to open then it closes. I did all the suggested this in this thread but nothing works, any more suggestions please, I really need to send text messages to my work crew and this is a major hindrance. I dont know how to soft or hard reset and would like to try that first, any other suggestion would be great. Thanks.
PLEASE dont laugh or throw tomatoes, I fixed it. In my attempt to load a Yahoo messenger app I installed an SMS application that was causing the issue. Problem solved, sorry to be a bother.

Just wanted to voice my agreement with Yianaki about "Never turn off Active X controls". The whole issue lies in the fact that the text messaging app is basically an Active X control. But I wanted to add the reminder that you need to make sure that the "Text Messages" app gets closed then reopened after you make the change, or it will not appear to work. (Use the task manager/celetask to close it)
I had the exact same problems with text messages: I could send an MMS, receive an SMS, but not send an SMS. When a text message came in, it showed up in the list as expected, but an attempt to view it resulted in a blank area with no useful menu options. I also couldn't send text (SMS) messages out because the create-new-SMS screen was blank and non-functional. It has nothing to do with the threaded vs unthreaded Accessibility settings for the phone, nor do you need to worry about configuring your WAP settings (GPRS and MMSC Settings); the "Connection Setup" app takes care of everything for T-Mobile perfectly. It's all an Active X issue.
PS: This is all on Ricky's v24 "Vanilla" ROM of WinMo 6.1 running on a T-Mobile Dash.
