Threaded SMS not working w/ WM 6.1 - General Questions and Answers

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,

iPhone SMS

hey not sure if you've guys have seen what apple have done with their iphone SMS, but i'm in love with that. does anyone know if theres an app that does something similar? i mean right now all my SMS's are just randomly organized by date, would love something where your given a 'instant messenger' kind of approach.
You're a senior member, you should know to search. There is a threaded sms cab here that works - I prefer to use the native Inbox application and will wait until 6.1 cooked which has threaded capabilities.
http://discussion.wmexperts.com/showthread.php?t=139379 has picture, step-by-step guide on how to get it working, I would recommend MOVING poutlook instead of deleting it.

Does this work with the Vox (since it is for PPC)? Did anyone try it?

i tried it, didnt' work for me....
when i started this thread i was hoping to find something that will organise the SMS in this fashion:
http://www.iphon.fr/public/periode2/iphone-sms.jpg
does anyone actually know if there is an app out there that does this?
I have used it with the Vox, it's not very stable and key presses do not match up properly, thus I don't use it.
There is no application that will do what you have posted in your screen shot. Wait until 6.1 is released out and perhaps it can be pulled out of the ROM and retro fitted.
ya thats what i'm hoping for. is the release date for 6.1 still april? or have they announced an earlier date?
There is an application and is called Extreme Text here is the link
"Extreme Text is the premier Threaded SMS Texting application. It allows you to view all of your Texts as separate conversations for each contact you SMS, much like an Instant Message Conversation. It also adds great features including emoticons, following links in the text, User Defined Text Support, Photo Contact Support, and more..."

ya thats what i'm looking for, but 15 bucks is a hefty price for a small app like that. I just read that WM6.1 will incoporate the iphone sms bubble 'chat' layout,just wondering when the release date for an official release is expected
The PPC guys have already began cooking 6.1 rom from a leaked Kaiser upgrade. We just have to wait for a smartphone upgrade and then we should be able to adapt it to the Vox

Group text messages like IMs?

Im trying to find an app that will group my text messages into an IM style layout. Kind of like the iphone. I bounce back and forth alot between my inbox and sent box when im having a conversation with someone, and I wish there was a way it would just group them in one window. Anyone found anything like this?

You can also try palm threaded SMS
Here is the link for the .cab
This way you don't have to upgrade to WM6.1 if you don't want to.
Is there a way to disable this feature in WM 6.1?
I just don't like it, but don't wonna go back to WM 6!
Pocket CM is another alternative.

HTC Touch Pro IM Client problems

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!

have you tryed the sms hotfix from the htc support page? or in advanced network in all settings/connections try setting the sms service to gsm rather than gsm preferred. and also apply the 1.48 rom update also from the htc support site. had the same problem and it was gone afther dooing so.
it seems that is a common problem..i got it too and it's not related to a specific rom or phone carrier because i got the 1.408.401 ITA but i know people with a older ROM with the same issue..
and btw when the sms stop workin' it seems that also windows live (messenger + hotmail) and the weather (only the gps assisted) stop workin'.. at least this happen to me and other people..
same sms problems
my rom was made on 11/09/2009 which meant its version 1.48.707.2
any suggestions of fixing this sms problem? which rom hotfix would best fit?
See the 60+ page thread in the general section ;-) HTC are working on it.
This sounds like what i had. for no apparent reason the phone decided to keep all messages in the outbox (viewable via classic sms display). sending sms messages in different ways somehow unclogged the outbox and all messages were sent.
i did have to bother someone with a test message, unfortunately
sorry i can't be specific. dutch button names wouldn't be much help . the sms tab has a conversation view and a traditional view. switch between those to get the option to see the outbox.
different ways of sending text messages are via the contact display, from the conversation view and just clicking the 'new message' button while in conversation view. somehow these roads to the same function work quite different.

could you tell me where... I saw htc.com but there is just the old one
I have installed Freberrys rom nomess version, which includes htc sense but not htc messaging. It uses the old style off messaging, I dont mind atleast i can send messages without worrying if they have sent. I can confirm with this rom for me the issue has gone.

[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...
http://sn1-p3.myphone.microsoft.com/mkweb/Start.po?mkt=en-GB
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?
Thanks

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
