Hi guys,
I have a problem, that from time to time my WM phone (Hermes) freezes and then I have to do a reset with the stylus and all the unread SMS that I´ve received in the meantime are gone..
Is there a way to prevent this, please? (e.g. a program that would automatically mark all incoming SMS as read so that the WindowsMobile system will actually store them even in case of a reset?)
Thanks for any help!
Pteropus.
nobody knows a solution..?
please..
please, help meee.. isn´t there a way to stop the unread sms-s from getting lost after restart..??
No idea.
I tried and mine works normally. I sent myself an SMS. I didn't open or read it when it arrived. I just left it unread in the inbox. I performed a soft reset using the stylus. When the device rebooted the SMS was still in the inbox showing as unread.
yeah but when the phone freezes it will delete.
it happens on my wing and on my old excalibur.
exactly
thanks for your replies..
so what can be done? i am thinking of a soft that would either keep the unread sms in its own memory on the memory card or a soft that would save it right away as read.. it is such a bummer, it´s a feature of Windows Mobile but I am wondering why this doesn´t bother anyone else...
Yes believe me this is a major pain in the a#@*! Has happened to me quite a few times and even made me miss an important appointment once...
I take it that this is simply a "feature" of the system but it could be down to a rogue program somewhere. Not for me to say anything of course but some of the third party programs available do seem to make my machine freeze more than most. Remove them and it works ok for long periods.
Funny that...
same here
that is the same source of madness for me.. last week I got an SMS from a horny girlfriend but the phone froze, sms is gone and she says that she will not say what was in it, beacuse she is ashamed how open it was and wants to play a dame now.. aaaargh....

Hi all,
I've got a problem with Messaging. I can receive text messages (SMS), but when I click on NEW or REPLY buttons in Messaging, nothing happens. No error messages, no crashes, no windows appearing and disappearing, nothing!
It used to work perfectly, so I seem to have done something wrong, but I don't know what.
I have a Himalaya with WM5. It happened to one of my friends with a Magician with WM2003 so it's not machine or ROM dependent. Hard reset works but I want to solve it without having to resort to that. Any ideas please?
Hello,
I'm quite new to the windows mobile phones, got an LG KS20 some days ago, and I'm liking it a lot. There's just that sms program that I really dislike.. So I googled a bit and found SMS-chat, so I downloaded the trial and installed it coorectly on my device,
Receiving Sms's works perfectly , and it synchronized my old ones immediatly, and I liked it right from the start, but when I tried to send an sms, the message simply stayed in my 'outbox' and it wouldn't send.. Even when I tried to send an sms with the normal sms-app, it didn't work anymore, and when I de-installed the program , it wouldn't even work before I rebooted my phone..
Anyone an idea? Couldn't find anyone with the same problem on google, but maybe those are my poor google-skills.. anyway I hope someone can help..
just throwing it in the air.... try smileysms instead of vitosms... which is ... much better (at least in my eyes)... try uninstalling Vito-SMS and install it again to your storage card. heard it helped someone once.
Hello,
Yesterday I was in the SMS screen (not the TF3D one) and I might have accidentally pressed something that deleted all SMS from my girlfriend!
Other contacts are fine, and sent messages are still there.
The strange thing is that the first 25 still appear on the TF3D tab. Is there anything I can try in order to recover them?
I do have a backup but it's a few weeks old...
Thanks.
u could try to check the deleted folder and restore them all..
they are probably still there
this used to happen alot to me. hasnt lately
if you un thread them you can see them but for whatever reason they dont show up in threaded
oh i thought he accidently deleted them.. but yeah when its in threaded mode when it reaches a certain amount of sms it will "hide" the older ones but they are still there when you unthread them..

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You were right! I unthreaded the messages and the old ones are still there, phew!
Thanks a lot, now I'm relieved.
Loner2DEnd, thanks for your suggestion as well, I had checked the deleted folder but it was empty, which got me even more worried.
Anyway, thanks again, you were really helpful!
Well.. I seemed to have somehow solved my SMS bug accidentally. I was suffering from it from day 1 when I restored my 2000+ messages. I gave up on trying to tweak it, and decided to concentrate on moving my picture MMSes over from my Diamond.
(along the way I concluded none of the backup softwares can really work with picture MMSes.. but that's another story.)
I'll state upfront I don't really know what I did that fixed the problem, but I'm very sure the problem of SMS stuck in the outbox is fixed, I seem to get all my SMSes and only my msg threads with more than 300 msgs take a while (3s - 5s?) to load.
The interface loads EVERY single msg. Doesn't anyone at HTC use MSN?
Here's what I did when I gave up with the MMSes. Something along the way solved the problem. Or maybe I got lucky.
1) deleted the messages that were previously MMSes in both inbox and sent box.
Every single one.
Didn't study much, but I realised through testing, my restored MMSes were causing some problems. In traditional mode, I could not reply to a single restored MMS, but a single restored SMS was fine. In conversation mode, conversations with restored MMSes had a lag, while those with only SMS didn't. The sent/received fields also seem screwed up somehow.
Furthermore, none of the softwares I tried using to restore couldn't bring my picture MMSes back to life. (sentimental value, else I'll just save the images)
That's why I decided to just kill all of them for now. I used Jeyo Mobile to delete those "former-MMSes" from my HD2.
2) Exited Sense by removing it from Today
BTW, this was fresh from a Hard Reset, so there's nothing else in the system.
3) Using Jeyo Mobile, deleted the (previously unseen) folder Conversations from the sms inbox
Don't know why, I keep seeing it reappear. Seems to cause problems when it's not properly indexed. the UI seems to duplicate the latest msg from each contact into it, and that'll be the start of the threads.
3) Clear the deleted items folder using Jeyo
Including manually deleting the Conversations folder that was stuck in it.
4) Back up the SMSes
I had no email, nothing in draft as the UI doesn't index them properly. Only left stuff in Inbox and Sent. I used Jeyo Mobile Companion 2.1. Feel free to try others.
5) Hard Reset
6) Restore the SMSes
Here's where it's hazy again. I might have tried alot of combis, as the UI doesn't index the msgs properly for conversations all the time. Idea was to restore and let the UI index it properly. Here's the possible permutations:
a) I might have exited Sense.
b) I might have left the HTC msging interface in traditional
c) I might have left the HTC msging interface in conversation
Chances are, it's in conversation.
I restored the msgs using Jeyo. (it's stored in a XML file, so other text based backups may work too)
-------------------------------------
I only realised that the problem is fixed a few days later, as I realised that the next few days, I got my SMS reports instantly, and I never had a SMS stuck. My newly received and sent MMSes worked perfectly too.
I'm trying not to touch that msging part of my phone now that it is working perfectly....
Just found out that HD2 I bought (at the same time) for my GF is suffering the sent/huge lag issue though. Maybe I'll try to pin point a fix using her phone. She shld have less than 50 messages, though I did back up and restore some mmses for her previously.
However as I'm about to go on a 19day tour/holiday, so I thought I'll just share my experience and maybe some experts can figure out what's wrong.
Just for your info, I'm using 1.48.707.2 (71294) WWE.
I always have a 1 indication on my messages even though there is no new message. it goes away when i delete all messages but it returns + the true number of new messages when as they come in. it also shows up in the windows messaging as 1 new in inbox even though there is not. I have soft reset and cannot find a way to erase the damn thing. Anyone else have this issue or know how to help?
Just go to the mail tab click on one of the mail then click the menu option the click on the Inbox. From the Inbox it has several acct. just go thought them and form the mail you haven't read or delete.
it seems to be a winmo issue, i have gone into the registry and deleted the count and it returns, I have no unread anything anywhere and dont even have any messages at all but it always says "Inbox (1)" no matter what...
then try this cab put that in the window reg.
what does it do?
it replaces the internal massages to zero. I got this zip file few weeks ago when I having same issue.
u sure u sent me the correct file, thats not a cab nor is there a cab in the zip file, its a dll...
in any case the .dll does nothing for my problem...
