MSN messenger live problem

i got this on ma tmobile mda , just upgraded and used the xda mobile , bbut thats not the point , u kno that when the messenger starts for the 1st time its syncs ya contacts , i did that , everthing was fine , then some thing happened and i deleted all the contacts ma phone had which is not the real problem
now i sign back in messenger only to see that i have no contacts in msn any more i have no idea wahts going on
has anybody else encounted this or had an issue like this and how can i recover all 600 msn contacts ?
*um mods if this the wrong place to post this plz move *

Yea, I've had this problem aswell.. try the Jaguar rom, it has a great Live Messenger feature, it works great for me!

hi.. happened to me ans sorry to tell you there's nothing u can do :S
the only way is to add them 1 by 1 from the messenger: tools options privacy allow list has the list of pple that were in ur contact list... u can c their email and re add them :s happened to me and glad to add back only important contacts others still can c me and talk to me.. in case i want someone else back i re add hem when he speaks to me or by looking into the allow list...
good luck.. tell me if it helps c you

Last name, first name in contacts.

Hi in here.
Im quite tired of that the phonebook shows my contacts with last name first an first nam last.
You can change that manually if you choose your contact and presses edit contact. Then scroll down to more, and then your are in the original wm settings. Here can you edit to first name will be shoved first.
Aint there a fix there does that automaticly to my contacts.
Im tired of doing it manually to each contact.

Hi,
If I'm right, I think you need to organise your contacts within M$ Outlook in a way that they are stored First Name first.
If this is how you synchronise your contacts then what you want to look for within Outlook , on each of your contact details, is the 'file as' option and select your preference.
I'm not sure if there is a universal way of changing this for all contacts, I only tried doing it one by one.
I hope this helps

Emailing and Texting doesn't like each other in threaded text on WM6.1

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

[Q] Is it possible to import sms messages to WP7?

as above
i have some important messages in my touch pro that i would absolutely loathe to lose, and i'm going to buy a WP7 device as my contract expires this month.
can some kind soul with a working device tell me if this is possible, or is there any article that mentions it?
Thanks

I think the myphone service should do it...

oh...yeah right
i clean forgot about it since i use spb backup more
thanks for reminding me

From what I have seen and tried I can find no method to restore the SMS from an older 6.5 device to a WP7.
Were you able to find a solution?

Nope-- there are even solutions to import WM 6.5 SMSes to Android, but nothing for WP7- it's far too locked down.

thanks for the confirmation, as I have tried a million things and I even looked at the SMS store and it looks too locked down to even write a app to do it.
Has anyone had success at sync'ing SMS from Exchange? I have got it set up but the messages dont appear to sync to the phone....have I missed something?

Nope, WP7 doesn't support Exchange SMS sync (or SMS sync with anything for that matter).
Ironically this was one of the features added to WM6.5 with Exchange Server 2010, yet its successor (if you can call it that) lacks it.
Might get added in a few years' time, once other more basic deficiencies are addressed.

weird that this phone addresses the joe-average user, and I dont deny it, but not having a restore/backup function is poor and a ovesight....

Hi
Do I understand it correctly that using http://sn1-p3.myphone.microsoft.com/...t.po?mkt=en-GB to upload sms through WM6.5 then download to WP7 is not possible ie does not work?

That's correct, one of the best things Microsoft created for WM6 doesn't work with WP7.

If you copy your important SMSes to the SIM card beforehand they will automagically appear on your WP7 handset.

Thought of doing that but couldn't see how to do it on wm6.5 [I have another wm6.5 phone I could copy to sim if it was possible]

wow, surprised to see my thread bumped up
my sms messages run up to the many thousands
not very possible eh?
but then, i guess a suggestion would be to prune them and keep the important ones

Sync Data from HD2 to HD7 Help.

Hi All,
I'm newbie here... hope you guys willing to help me.
Recently I just upgrade my phone from HTC HD2 to HD7, unfortunately I cannot sync / move all my data such as CONTACTS, SMS, EMAIL, WORD, ZNOTE, etc to my new HD7.
Could you guys kindly help, what software do I have to use or any easy way to move my Contacts & SMS.
These to items are most important.
I'm totally lost...
Please help...
Thank You.

easiest way I found to transfer contacts is to use soocial.com. they have a winmo application that will upload all your contacts that you can sync with your live account that your phone will then download.
Or if you have gmail, you can use active sync on your hd2 to upload your contacts to gmail, then hd7 supports contact sync with gmail.
There is no sms syncing available.
For word documents, easiest way is to email them to yourself and open them on your phone, long press the document and save it.

Well. What is your email provider?
The easiest way of sync Contacts and Calendar is actually having Hotmail account.
And use ActiveSync to put this to Hotmail from HD2,
and set on HD7 Hotmail account which will bring it to phone.
As for office docs I'm afraid the only way is Hotmail SkyDrive or just email this to yourself.
I also want Zune to sync all this content!

Hi Titeloo,
I'm afriad there is no current solution that i know of that would allow you to export/import sms from WM6.5 to WP7, If you really cannot stand to lose them then i would sync them with MS My Phone. This will allow you to store them online and view them whenever you like, however this solution still will not allow you to get them onto the WP7.
I wouldnt let this stop you from using your new handset though, i also have an HD7 after having moved from an Xperia X1 (WM6.5 device) and i can tell you that it is a completely different experience. I have not seen a single bug or crash on the handset since xmas and most importanatly i never have to restart it
Hope this helps,
Creamy

It baffles me that someone would refuse to use WP7 because they can't read their old SMS messages. That makes absolutely 0 sense to me.

I want to keep my sms and i need to export the hold and to back up the news too... because they are remenber... maybe i'm too much sentimental
But for me it's a pleasur to have some messages always with me in my phone
I can't imagine loose all my sms and contact if loose my phone or if i change the rom...

Yes I understand not wanting to lose some messages, but I can't believe you'd rather stay away from an entire OS than lose a couple "sentimental" text messages.
And why would you lose your contact list?

Export your messages to PC and then send them in text as email

I say that because with my phone the contact and sms was save every day automatic so if loose it or if i've a probleme with it all it's save on live
Some other applications do that but miscrosoft block them on WP7 I don't know why, i can't understand ...

Wp7 also saves/backs up contacts to your live account

Hello people!
I've just upgraded my HTC HD2 to WP7 and I backed up contacts and texts to My Phone.
Now I can't get those contacts to new OS.
Microsoft says that those will be automatically transferred to SkyDrive in August but I can't wait till then.
I can access both MyPhone and SkyDrive on Internet but I don't know how to sync these two programs!!!!
Is Microsoft so stupid and hates its own users or what???????
I have all my contacts backed up and I can't transfer them to my phone???
Awful !!
Please help,anyhow.
Those contacts are very important to me and I can't manually write 800 of them
