I would like to find a way to disable/uninstall the Palm SMS/MMS messaging app and use the Windows Mobile messaging app instead.
I used a HTC Trinity running AX3L WM6 (before I dropped it and broke the screen ) and I would really like all the messaging (E-mail, Pushmail, MMS and SMS) on the Treo I use now to be all in the same place instead of 1 app for SMS/MMS and another app for E-mail.
Been looking all over Google, these forums and TreoCentral.com and found several posts asking this question, but the only replies were something like "Why would you even want that, the Palm app is so cool" ... well...
I do want it! So I hope someone can help me find a solution
Kind Regards,
J.
Hi there - is it possible to implement a WM 6.1 version over an existing ROM version ?
or in other words - I`m using Quentin`s qmobile 1.2 but wanna have the wm 6.1 on the kaiser ...
Thanks
Myrin
This has been asked before. It's a definite no. Features, only thing different is sms threading, which you can add palm threaded sms to your rom. Some other minor options, but nothing too big.
The SMS from 6.1 is by far much better than Palm Threaded SMS
Thomassster I `m not quite shure if understand what you are saying - Do I have to wait for Quentins version of WM 6.1 ?
Ignore the first response - I guess he didnt understand the question.
If you have hardspl'd your device, then you can flash any rom you like.
But if going to a 6.1 rom, you will need to also flash a 6.1 compatible radio rom as well.

MS Threaded SMS:
-You can't see the time of messages older then 1 day anymore.
-You can't see which delivery report is for which message (if you send 3 messages to 1 number and the second wouldn't be delivered, you couldn't check that.)
-You can't disable the threaded sms function.
Palm Threaded SMS:
-If you want to see older messages in a thread, the app opens the whole conversation and with a several thousends of messages it kind of gets stuck.
-The sms file which contains the messages gets HUGE. With 5000msg the file is 20MB. (the main reasion I wan't to dump this app)
The MS app is more stable and faster, but it just isn't finished yet. You can't call it much better then the Palm threaded sms, cause it misses core functions.

MS threaded:
-Slower then Palm dunno why you think MS is faster
-Ugly font.. cant resize unless you have email configured
+pictures are full screen
+audio only clips (voicemails)
-log style
+today plugin works pretty well
-no pictures of contacts for new txt
Palm threaded:
+Faster then MS by far.
-MMS wont work on newer htc devices.. basically anything after the tytn-orginal(att 8525)
+better face icons
+better logging
+picture of contact when getting new txt
-log size
-today plugin sometimes funky
-------
bottom like palm has better features but until someone can make threaded sms+mms work in it ill have to stick to the MS threaded
unwired4 - so I can`t just hardspld, flash a new radio rom and then take Quentins Rom ???
Is that possible ?
Or must the ROM be a "WM 6.1 ROM" ?
Thanks

I would use Palm's but I just can't stand not having MMS not working. A couple of weeks ago I was able to get the MMS fixed but it only works with the older ArcSoft MMS. I can give you steps and the package that you need to get it work. If I can find it again.

NO! You can not flash 2 roms... Your rom holds 1 rom
Wait for Quentins WM6.1 rom or flash someone elses WM6.1 rom.

When your log file is small, Palm is faster yes. But if you have a huge logfile with thousends of messages, MS is way faster for sure, it just doesn't get slower, while Palm's app is getting slower with each byte.
I'm not a techie, by any means. I have the HTC Tilt (8900, I think?). They keep advertising the "threaded SMS" messaging with Windows Mobile 6.1...but mine won't do it? I have the most current/recent ROM version (I did check my phone for that), but all my txt messages look like emails. How do I fix this? I want my messages threaded, but don't know how to get it. Thanks for any help!

It can be possible
Search for Advanced confing and install it, you´ll have much more options than just switching to threaded mode
Hope it helped,
Hello xda community and thank you for your help in advance!
I have a Sprint HTC Touch Pro, running WM 6.1, stock rom. Couple of questions:
1. i've been hunting for an instant messenging client that would pop up a notification icon (like blackberry messenger does on the berry) when there's a new IM; reveal the time of the msg when you roll cursor over msg in the msging pane (again like bbm), and preferably, also include the msg in your inbox until you open it (again like bbm... see a pattern here? haha.) any thoughts, please? i've tried the stock program with wm, as well as palringo, and fring. none of them do these. and i keep missing IMs. sigh.
2. i uninstalled palringo because it didn't do what i needed. however, even though the files and icons seem to have gone, when i power up the phone i get a msg that palringo.exe cannot be found. and it sl-o-o-o-ows the startup. is that just because of a registry key? could you please guide me on the best way to fix? thanks!
Hi guys, I had a HTC S710 running windows mobile 6.1 - that you guys hacked (New phone comming soon - S710 broke:-() and I wondered if you could make a few things clear for me?:
Firstly, I set up my hotmail and a few other email accounts, and ever since when I went the reply in threaded text I got two error messages, one of which saying "This account is encrypted. Please try again on a different account..." (Something like that - definatly to do with emailing but its been along time I can't remember exactly!), and the only way I could text is too read it then go back to contacts and send from there! Is this a common problem/has anyone else had this? Is there a fix?
Secondly, my new phone will be running windows mobile 6.5 and I just wondered if the same thing will happen on that. If it will is there a fix on WM6.5?
Now, I like threaded messaging but if there is absolutly no other fix, I dont mind living with out it!
Thanls
