**POOF** MMS has vanished!! - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

A very strange thing has happened.
I noticed today that all things MMS have disapeared from my phone.
When i go into messaging all it has is TXT messages and Outlook E-Email.
Where did my MMS stuff go you ask... good question.
I know it was there after i flashed my rom, but i dont' konw how long it has been missing for now. I only found out today as someone tried to send me an MMS.
All the cab files I can find seem to only be for inputing the settings, which is kind of useless given that fact that I can't see any MMS stuff.
Have i just overlooked something is there a setting that will just turn my MMS back on.
MMMMMMMM could it be that simple.
Thanks for the help.

Did you NOT try to back up with SKTools?

Same here, no more MMS entries in the messaging app??
I don't use MMS so frequent, so I didn't notice it until I checked now
So, it's not a real problem for me, just wanted to report it.
I'm running a german rom, cooked with the rom kitchen by bepe.
radio rom 1.40.
Raist

I cannot send MMS at all ...with a correct config (addhoc GPRS connection and server profile in arc soft). don't know why...
LVSW 8/4 ..GPRS switch to correct profile icone indicate sending but never finnish...

Same here too. I've received a MMS Notice, but unable to download ( authorisation failure), I've tried to send an MMS to myself but unable to ( staying in the Outbox all the time). I've config the MMS setup according to info based from this forum, Optus cabm and other sites (MTEKK), But still not working ...

MMS OK

I am running BE 2.0 with Optus and MMS is working fine. Did you use Walshieau operator settings cab? It has the Optus settings. You may need to edit the MMS server settings so check them after you have run the cab.

Guys we are getting off topic.
This post is NOT about MMS settings or Send/Receive problems there are stacks of threads that talk about that. Please go and post there.
This topic is about missing the MMS module all togeather.

I do have a full backup of the Phone with SBP but it was done after the MMS module disapeared, so probably no good.
Is there anyone that might be able to shed some light on this problem.
Cheers
That being said

Sorry to be a pain..
Does anyone have any idea how to get back my missing MMS module.
I would like to avoid having to hard reset my device if i could.
Thanks again.

yeah u get that. tings r tuff all round. it happens.
try any one or more of the following
reinstall your cab file.
try to add a new from scratch and input it all from start.
hard reset ur device n rebuild
search for the create link cab file and it might re establish
restore from a previous backup
one of these will definitely fix it. suggest to prevent future occurances
be gentle to ur device
stroke it regularly
give it some gentle words occassionally
dont drop your device
dont get it wet
dont yell at it
buy it flowers occassionally
oooohhhh and yeah use backup software so you can just restore the system and move on without wasting peoples time whinging complaing and moaning over minor infrequent and incidental stuff

Thanks, do you konw where to find the cab file for Vodafone Australia.
I had a look at the provider cabs on the Wiki but it was not there.
Can you tell me where i can get it from.
I can't add a new one because i can't access the MMS settings as it is completely missing.
Other options are a last resort.
Cheers and thanks
Travis

(REQUEST) - Cab with MMS setings

Hello :
Im trying to do a cab file with my Operator configs for mms and gprs !
Can you post yours here that work with WM6 ? I will try to change to Portuguese TMN operator !
LRM
If you do a search on Cingular setting you will get this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296991&highlight=Cingular+WAP+MediaNet+Settings.cab
Also i am interested to this project...
I've looked inside the cab... but it says WAP settings.
I (we) want to backup operator GPRS INTERNET settings & MMS settings.
Are all those regkeys assigned to this settings?
So we have to backup
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Destinations
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers
and its related subkeys after setup the connections?

The above are correct but if you also want MMS settings then you will also need
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1
many thanks...
There's some website. that some member linked to this week. it was htc freak or htc fourms htc, and something with an F and it had a lot of carriers customizations.
Not that that helps...but you know
I'm having an awful time getting my MMS settings to work in WM6. I've followed all the documentation on Cingular's site and I'm 99% sure I have everything correct.
I get a message saying that it needs to disconnect from my current connection to send/receive mms messages and asks if it wants to proceed. This is bad because I must recieve MMS messages no matter what, like I used to be able to in WM5, to get pages from work.
Not to mention, even if I answer Yes, the messages don't seem to come through. It's also random, I can get MMS messages, just not all the time. So the settings seem to be right. =(
if you have any of the original cabs you can extract the XML files out them and make 1 XML and use wince cab manager and import the xml to provision all of the settings, however if you do that make sure you remove the lines that state "WAP PROVISIONG DOC" wince does not like that line.
Is there a repository of Operator GPRS/MMS Settings cabs anywhere on the net?
I think it would be great if xda had one since we all put new roms on our phones like we change socks.
I would like to have ones for T-mobile US and Rogers Canada (you don't even want to know why I have a phone for there).
Thanks

the xml is located inside the cab and from what i have seen its always named "CM_Entries.xml" there is almost always another file inside that you will want to check out to see if there are registry entries being changed its called "Platformxxx.reg"
Here is a screenshot of the shortstring keypad cab to show you what i am talking about.

Yeah, that thing is really annoying.
Try changing your MMS settings. From "Work" to "internet" or such.
See this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1172421#post1172421

Palm SMS Threader

I recently tried the Palm SMS Threader CAB, and it works great on WM6. I'm using JJ's Black 1.2, and it runs flawlessly. If anyone wants thier text messages in thread form, then try it out.
I couldn't get the CAB to attach for some reason. It's under 5 megs. Here's a link for it.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WO8D3YG5
Note: For me all I had to do was drop the CAB to my phone and run it from there. It worked, and still works after soft resetting. However, there are actual steps to copy the files and over-write the Messaging ones in the ROM. The steps can be found in the Hacking and Developing forum if I remember correctly. If ya need help finding the steps I'll post a link from the treo forums. I'm using a Cingular 8525 on WM6, and it works great. -fin
Here are the install steps from another site. Like I said. I'm using an 8525 on JJ's Black 1.2 WM6, and all I needed to do was drag and drop the CAB into my phone. Open it and save it to the Storage Card, soft reset, and I'm all ready to thread!
Here's the install info.:

I have found a bug when i use it in that the soft keyboard covers part of the text space which is a little annoying. Otherwise, its great.
Hmm. I'm not having that problem. What kind of phone do you have? I just checked mine to see if that was also happening, but wasn't. That's weird, but yeah, I agree, this little app makes text messaging a whole lot better to track what you say to somneone and when.
Below are settings and setup that works for me. don't do much mms bit the sms works just fine.
1) run the .cab, Soft Reset.
2) edit the registry to rename HKLM/Software/MS/Inbox/SVC/MMS1 to MMS1OLD, Soft Reset. Otherwise you still see MMS if you click your email hard button a second time.
3) Go into new SMS app, Menu, Options, Advanced:
Msg Center#: +13123149810
Email Center#: 121 <--this lets you send sms's to email addresses
MMS gateway address: wireless.cingular.com
MMS URL: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Network Profile: MEdia Net
4. Delete Start Menu/Programs/Inbox(1) folder.
I totally missed changing the settings. Thanks. I was using my old MMS to send them instead of the one in this app. It's originally setup for Sprint. Thanks again!
thanks for the new settings, helped a lot!

anyone knows the setting for T-mobile USA MMS?
let me answer my own question:
T MOBILE SETTINGS
Message center number +12063130004
Email center number is 500
MMS gateway address is 216.155.165.050:8080
MMS URL is http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
T-Mobile UK Palm settings
In case it helps anyone, here are the UK T-Mobile settings for this app to send/receive MMS:
Message centre number: +447958879879 (should pre-fill when you've got a signal)
Email centre number: blank
MMS gateway address: 149.254.201.135:8080
MMS URL: http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk:8002
Network profile: Default
Then don't forget to amend the MMS1 to MMS1old in the registry (see post above).

Do you mean the notification of when you get a msg? Start>Settings>Sounds and Notifications, drop down to recieve new SMS, and make sure no audio file is selected. Is that what you're lookin for?
I'm having a problem sending an MMS with this app. It keeps saying the same error. Like copuldn't send message due to ActiveSync, or a in coming call interupted it. If I use the old MMS app it works fine. ??
MMS doesn't work through this app from what I read on PPCGEEKS, so I changed a soft key to link it for faster navigation.

Hi, I've been lurking around since I got my 8525 in December. I've flashed just about every flavor on WM6 ROM that has come out. So far, I have not been able to get Palm Threaded SMS to work on the two versions I've tried it on. I've tried it on Black 2.5 and Custel 2.5.
I'm currently running Custel 2.5 and have errors that read "cprog is not a valid program file" and "tmail is not a valid program file". When I have the cprog failure the radio does not work and I have to hard reset to get it work. With the tmail error every thing works normally except the mail/sms functions. I use SPB Backup to save me the agony of the hard resets but really miss the Palm threaded application. I loved it in WM5 and have considered going back just to get it to work.
By the way, I have followed all of the instructions in the Treo Central post referenced above.
Thanks for any help.
Itchy Rash
storage card
is there a way to store sms from the Palm Threaded SMS to the storage card so that when i flash and change the setting back i can keep my texts?? PIMBackup backs up only the regular SMS not this one?? or at least does anyone know where the texts are stored so i can copy them before flashing and put them back?
thanks.

MMS Issues, please help!

I know, I know... search... well it hasnt worked for me. Im always trying out new roms, but I have noticed that more than half of them do not have mms under messages... there is no way to set them up... so I finally realized that I can download arcsoft mms which gives me access to putting in a gateway and port and all that. I am using the correct settings but for some reason it just isnt sending or recieving picture messages, i tinker with what its gonna use to connect with and still no use. I even tried the tmobijoe2999 app to use settings and apparently its not arcsoft friendly. I have a connection set up, internet explorer and opera work great I just wish that there was some sort of cab out there that every time I flash to a new rom, I could just have the mms settings working... any help? Ive gotten it to connect and just stay at 0%, ive had it go to 100% with confirmation but the person didnt recieve the message I am not very regedit friendly but please help me out.
Thanks!
Jake
P.S. Oh, and at the moment, im using CRC's 14.1 rom
Still not enough information
CRC's there is 3 versions, which one did you download?
Where are you located, and what is your device exactly? Carrier settings may not be correct.

Im located in Flagstaff, using a cingulair 8525 with tmobile. and I am using the Normal version of the rom.
it appears ive got the correct settings from the network wizard, it is now sending the message 100%. when I send a mms to myself, it goes through, but I ever recieve it.
i believe you better off asking this sort of questions on his thread. I am sure I seen somewhere the cab/settings for it.
alright, thank you for your help. if anyone out there is cool and they have tmobile and want to make a cab that has all the correct reg settings for data and mms, that would rock my world. Thanks again!!!
Actually, I just flashed my phone 4 times to 4 different roms, and each time after it customized and loaded up i pushed the envelope and all it had was text messages and setup email. I think something may be erased from my registry? and im using the 2.1 bootloader if that helps...

MMS problem

I've checked just about everywhere and can't figure this out. I installed Ricky & Stylez Rose rom V1.7 and ever since i can receive T-mo MMS but can't send. Is there a fix for this? Other than that great rom.
Maybe try running the device configurator through T-Mobile?

how do i do that, sorry not too familiar with my gadget
I'm guessing you haven't done this since you don't know your device, go to Start Menu\Accessories\Connection Setup and choose the region and carrier you need.
MMS doesn't work straight away with any of the WM6.1 ROMs you have to set it up, also jdog has a link in sig with the settings.
yay! thanks!!! you people are awesome i don't know what i'd do without this site.

Thanks but i've tryed device configurator and i get the following : Error in the database. Any ideas. Also tryed t-mo configurator and that's how i finally got mms to receive. Last thing that i tryed was T-mobile USA MMS settings cab. Am i missing something or just stupid?

i always get error syncing
i've tried device config and the htc wiki excalibur 5.99 tzones mms setup and still error syncing
helP~!
you will always get a error while syncing, it never works. But once you have configured to your provider, it should receive and send just fine. Testing it is just a matter of sending one and asking someone to send you one. If you play your cards right, you may be able to get a "naughty" pic out of the deal
I'm experience little annoyance with it too.
I run connection setup and set it t-mobile, and i send my self a text with image I get notice about it but never get the damn picture or just queue there never downloads it.
that happened to me once all i did was under MMS go to tools then options, then go down to account settings, click menu, go to MMSC settings and make sure T-mobile MMS is checked.

yes indeed it does do that but with the right configuration it works well i personally downgraded to 1.4 which is best since it doesn't drop my calls every 45 scs or 1min45 secs or have people call me and reach my voicemail when my phone does't even ring or just doesn't allow me to call like i don't have network. it's just faultless

I cant send MMS, I tried everything.

For some reason I cant send MMS, it keeps telling the receiver the message "One or more of the message contents have been deleted by MMS adaptation. Either the message was too large or the components were unsuitable for your device."
The files iam trying to send are only 20kb. I also did put it on free creation mode. And iam using arcsoftmms v5 found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476947&highlight=CRCs_ArcSoft_MMS_v5
Does anyone know anything else I can do? Should I switch back to the arcsoft that came with the extrom? Hard reset?
i don't have too much experience, when it comes to mms, but if there was a arcsoft version in the extrom coming with the rom, you certainly should use that version, because it was tested and works definitely. to do that, you don't need to hard reset, normally uninstalling the one version and installing the other one should be enough. plus you should also check, that your carrier settings for mms are right, usually the operator would send you the correct settings by extended sms.
Alright will do, I'll post back if it worked or not.
EDIT: Yay! I got it working. After numerous hours of researching and testing. All I had to do was a hard reset, and reinstall... Damn, I guess I screwed up the settings or something.
cant get the mms done
I just couldn's send or receive any mms.. Im wondering y? I already send the settings via the operator. It says i will get the sms to do the required settings.. However i do not get it. Instead, if i used other phone, i will get the settings.. Pls help
first of all, do you have arcsoft mms installed? you can check by looking it up either in the installed programs list, your extrom folder on the pc or simply by opening pocket outlook and look, whether the account picker displays an mms account. if not, search the forum for the program. there are a lot of different version floating around and you probably need to try out, which version fits your om and works for you. then you look for the settings and probably your carrier's settings sms can only work with arcsoft installed in the first place. if even then you don't receive an sms from your carrier, after you ordered it, it is a problem with your carrier and you'd probably have to contact them about it.
