** EDIT **
Aplogies for not crediting ncruz as the one who edited the original files and got this working in the first place!
As per his instructions, and to make everything a bit easier for everyone, I have updated the Himalaya cab file with his updated files
** EDIT **
Thanks to TofClock for the making the cab file! I've just taken his instructions and made them a little easier to follow, I hope he doesnt mind
The Arcsoft mms composer has been extracted from the Universal rom and a cab file was cerated to work with WM 5.0 Blueangel devices.
However this cab won't install on Himalaya devices.
This is because of the following two files
ArcMMS.dll cause the install stop wis message : bla bla bla not digitally signed bla bla bla
RcDll.dll cause the install stop and prompt to install in another place , and again , and again .
TofClock has created his own cab file (which I have now updated to ncruz newest versions) with all other files and reg settings ...
Attached to this post is are two RAR files containing a cab file and 2 dll files.
To install, follow these instructions :
1. Download Himalaya_WM5_MMS.part1.rar and Himalaya_WM5_MMS.part2.rar from this post.
2. Decompress the rar file on your PC using winrar or something similar
3. Soft reset your Himlaya
4. Copy RcDll.dll and ArcMMS.dll to your Windows directory on your Himalaya
5. Copy the cab file to your Himalaya and install it.
6. Soft-reset your device again
7. After this , go the messaging application. click on Inbox you should see a new account there called MMS.
If not click on Menu>Tools>New Account
Create a dummy email account (it doesn't matter what info you fill in, just make it up) but at the Account information select MMS as the account type and click next.
Then finish going through the account creation, again for the server information making anything up.
8. Once that is completed clock on Menu>MMS Configuration then click the servers tab.
9. From here fill in your operators server settings (remember to set it as default!) and enjoy MMS on WM5.0!!
Again thanks sooo much for everyone's hard work in getting this working, especially ncruz for the initial work and the BA cab and TofClock for making the Himalaya cab file.
Great, just another thing, thoose files aren't from universal.
First, thoose files are from MY POST, i've reshacked thoose files for qvga devices, so it really pisses me off when people take credits for things they don't to.
Second, at least use my latest rcdll.dll see my post at BA forum.
The one that's in THAT cab has some huge icons. and i have hacked it a little bit more.
Third, i've already resolved the problem of having to create the account by hand.
So, if you really want to do the thing right, get the cab at my post, open wincecab editor, remove rcdll.dll and arcmms.dll, install the cab, then copy the files you've just removed and copy them to \windows.
PS: you can check the original files from universal and see that they aren't the same.
everythin is done as explained before, and no mms account appears
please help me
THankssss
Working with WM2k5_1.60c.00WWE_XDA2_HIMALAYA
thanks mjames_84 for update the cab
GREAT THANKS to ncruz for your good job , without it , i never should made this cab
paketecuento -
Have you tried this previously using ncruz manual installation?
I had trouble with that method and once I tried it even after I used the cab file it wouldn't work I had to hard reset my device and do it again.
If you did try the manual install first then you may have to do the same, it certainly worked for me anyway.
As his cab file worked great once I had removed the two dll files and had done a hard reset.
Of course if you havn't tried the manual installation previously then it could be anything you might need to give more info on what ROM version you're using, software you have installed etc...
working 100%, once updated to 1.60c....
It's strange. On my device every time I try to install the cab file I get an error message while installing. I follow the instuctions as described...
Has anybody dealt with it?
Same problem here
Get a error when I start installing. Says that I should try a different location. I"ve tried my SD and PPC. Nothing works.
Download here
It's worked with my WM5V.1.60c!!!
But i use .dll files from mjames_84 and use .cab file from TofClock. I can send and recieve my MMS!!!
Thank you
I too tried mjames files and had problems.
However I also left mjames .dll files there deleted his cab file and used TofClocks' cab file and I now have working MMS.
Thanks all!
the dll in archive with my cab are same of mjames dll and ncruz dll , i've updated the rar
Hello, thank you for the great work!
But i have a problem, no way to getting it to send messages through Vodafone italy, i had already a Vodafone MMS connection setted up by my QTEK SD Configuration wizard (dloaded from dangaard site) which worked with WM 2003 but i have no way of getting it to work in WM 2005, i keep getting the error message that my mms has not been sent. Anyone can help me please?
Thank you very much
By the way, since i almost haven't any programming skill i have Eng/Ita translation skill ^_^, so if u are interested in translating the WM2005 ROM to ITA let me know, i can help ^_^

Can't replace wince.nls
I have a Win Mobile Phone Edition 5, very first one in U.S.
I tried to load chinese so that I can read chinese. I copy over font file and am able to see Chinese in Word, providing that I select options.
However I got issues with IE, because I there is no option for me to change the encoding.
I learned that I need to change wince.nls file. And I downloaded your file. Now I got an issue "Access Denied" message when I try to override original wince.nls. Looks like it was in ROM.
Any idea?
Thanks
you should use another file explorer other than the system's one, and then you can overwrite it
the tool is in the attachment(it's in chinese language), it's a green software
The attribute is grayed out.
Thanks for your prompt response and the program.
maybe i did not use it right, some how the menu of the program is mess up. see the attached.
I have Resco Explorer 2005, which also show wince.nls is in rom. Every time I change the other attributes, it changes back when I re-open property page.
While I have a pocket PC 2003 Dell x3. The wince.nls is not rom file.
Can I override rom file?
It is about mid night here in U.S. I will check back first thing in the morning, just in case you do not get response from me right away.
Again, thanks for your help.
on wm2003 it was possible to "override" files in ROM.
Now it is not.
You have to wait until we'll be able to decompress the ROM and inject your wince.nls into ROM.
buzz
ok, i've downloaded your chinese.rar to test-it ...
i've replaced the wince.nls with this procedure
in \windows\ , i've renamed wince.nls to wince5.nls
got an error message "Can't delete wince.nls" , but it's renamed
Copy the new wince.nls to \windows\
Copy fonts to \windows\fonts\
import reg file ... modified
soft-reset
...
Anything appears ...
i'm not able to choose chinese in regional settings
In the registry , after soft-resest , nls automaticly set to "0409"
if i set to 0804 and soft-reset , poof .... 0409
I think there is another problem
OK, I will wait.
One another thing I noticed: through ActiveSync, I can create a folder in windows, (well, as you expect). But I can't copy the wince.nls file to even the newly created folder, not just windows folder. On my PC, the message saying... no space or no permission, etc. I do have like 3-4mb left in main storage and install other program.
Just for your infomation.
it is easily possible to copy wince.nls to your \Windows folder. Just create a cab for it.
But it is not taken into system... That;s the problem here...
Will look at it further...

I'm success to copy it in my himalaya. I had tried several method, one of them is o.k. but not sure is this one or not.
1) copy the wince.nls to somewhere in your SD Card.
2) Boot your Himalaya into Safe Mode.
3) Then copy the wince.nls to your Himalaya's \windows\
4) Soft Reset.
Do you mean that you can choose the Chinese region now?

only 1.60b could be chineselization
I had tried to replace wince.nls in WM2K5_160C_WWE in various ways mentioned in xda-dev forum. none of them could be finished this job.
so i had to refresh my rom to 1.60b, everything is OK now. I can override the wince.nls, import *.reg, set regional to PRChina and so on.

Hi all!
I know this issue has been discussed more often than necessary, for sure. Unfortunately the only messages in this forum that i have found are too old, to help me right. :-(
I am looking for a freeware tool to export my sms and mms from the Pocket Outlook into a textfile.
I don't want to sync it, only export it.
The software should run under WM5!
Does anyone know any suitable tool?
Freeware nada, but Kai has a tool to export SMS into spreadsheet. No restore however. Dopod has a free tool to export AND restore SMS under WM5 (see attached).

Dopod SMS Backup (translated from Chinese, rename .zip to .cab, install from machine only)
PS: Willkommen im Forum!
Hey thanks a lot. That seems to be ok. Now I only need to build an import script for my database.
Danke auch für's "Willkommen"
You can use Jeyo software, they have 2 applications available:
- a standalone version
- an outlook plug-in
I tried to the outlook plug-in, but don't like it so much because the sms that I get can't be stored on a IMAP folder after it.
I should have a look at the standalone version when I have some free time.
For information, I have WM5 it works fine with it.
SMSbackup by Dopod
SMSbackup is a great tool. Only problem is that it looks like sms in folders created under root "text messages" (example : archive/perso, archive/admin, ...)
Apparently, only inbox and sent items are saved.
Anyone got a solution to backup all the folders?

Check to make sure that in the option that you have all folders selected!
does anyone know how to get this to work with WM6??? it says it is not made for this.
hi all,
Am new to this and apologise for this silly question.
I just did a backup and the file is something like this 2007-1-24-22-21-9-0.sms.
So does it mean I will have to do a full restore to see all these backup sms on my dopod ?
Not sure how this works. Appreciate any advice
TIA!

Where exactly is this option to select sub folders???
When I opn the program, there is only a MENU option associated with the LEFT softkey.
When I click on that... all I can see is
1) ABOUT
2) ACTION --- Backup, Restore and Delete
3) EXIT
When I click on Backup under the Actions menu, there are only 2 check boxes
1) STORAGE CARD
2) STORAGE (Not selectable for the Wizard)
That's... there are no other options. The soft keys at this point have OK and CANCEL respectively. Where do you see the option to backup sub-folders??
M question also!

I've used once... and I think it didn't got the sub-folder... and I didn't saw any option to select or to ask for the backup of the sub-folders.
BUMP... How do you backup Sub Folders with this?
I found it works well, I dont have sub folders. But it dosent do the MMS. Is there a product that will back up all of the messaging?
Just having problems with my MDA Vario and wondered about backing up my text messages however the .zip file which is avail to download appears to be corrupt! Anyone have another version of the file they could post?

Why don't you lot try PIM Backup v1.5
It backs up sms, mms & more (contacts ect), the output files are xml
Heres a link to the thread (the download is on this page)

Hey Lucas,
Thanks for sharing the great software.
really appreciate if someone could guide me through.
Here are the steps i took to install the SMSBackupEN101.zip but it was unsuccessful.
1) Download and convert SMSBackupEN101.zip to SMSBackupEN101.cab on my PC.
2) Connect Phone to PC through active sync 4.5.
3) Move SMSBackupEN101.cab to Storage card by the following path:
My Computer >> Mobile Device >> My Windows Mobile based Device >> Storage Card
4) Use FILE MANAGER in my phone to open SMSBackupEN101.cab
I got this error message>> "Installation of SMSBackupEN101.cab was Unsuccessful The installation is not intended for this device"

In this thread we are looking at getting SMS notification of VM on an Orange M3100 working for WM6. It is mentioned that SMS notification is working for Orange M5000s running WM6 and so we are lookng to "steal" a copy of SMS_providers.dll from one.
Can anyone help by attaching it to the thread? Thanks in advance.
From Helmi's origional source
Getting SMS_Providers.dll Onto The Device
Hi, I've recently upgraded my SPV M3100 to WM6 using the HTC official rom, I've manage to get everything working but the Voicemail notifications which I believe the sms_providers.dll fixes.
Please could someone let me know how to get this file into my \windows directory. Whenever I try it I just get the following error:
Cannot Copy 'sms_provider': Access is denied.
Be certain that the there is enough from storage memory (there is), that the destination is not write-protected and tha the file is not currently in use.
What I'm Doing:
1. Placed the sms_providers.dll onto my storage card.
2. Run 'File Explorer' on the device.
3. Performed a 'Cut' on the sms_providers.dll (on storage card).
4. Navigated to \windows & performed a paste.
5. Clicked Yes to overwrite the current file.
6. Error as described above
Well it means that sms_providers.dll already exists in your \windows directory, and it is currently read only/write protected. You might want to try another File Manager program like Total Commander or Resco Explorer to work around it. But if it is part of the ROM, then there is no way you can over write it. You will have to include sms_providers.dll in your WM6 ROM via kitchen then reflash again.
Many thanks DaVince, Total Commander did its magic and moved the sms_providers.dll without winging, rebooted the phone and wallaaa, workin.
Here's a link for Total Commander if anyone else needs it.
Many thanks
Nice to hear you got your problems fixed.
As we know, by default when you install CAB it will get deleted after installation.
Some of cooked ROMs will disable this feature, so CAB will stay after installation. Which is OK for many people.
Here is my question. When I install new program using PC (through ActiveSync) it seems that ActiveSync will transfer CAB file (which is inside .exe) and then - install it as usual. So ... where will be those CAB files located and will they be deleted after installation if delete-cab-after-install feature is disabled ?
During TRANSFER ActiveSync does not ask .... "Do you want your CAB to be transferred to SD card or main memory", right ? It only asks during INSTALLATION of the CAB.
I make lots of installations using ActiveSync and would like to know if I'm not filling my valuable disk space (on phone itself) with junk CAB files.

Thats why I prefer to extract the cab out of the C:\Programs\Activesync and copy them to SDcard. Pro: you have all needed programs on SDcard and do not have to install throu activesync.
