timestamp on older sms - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I have a HTC touch pro2 and runign on winmo 6.1
My sms messages have the correct timestamp, date but somehow, i cannot see the timestamp for my older smses dated like last week or so ( i think its the latest 25 having timestamp only?). Only the date is visible (i.e dd/mm )
I have seen many discussions on the timestamp error but none on this subject. anyone know if this is a winmo limitation or it can be enabled by some registry?
If this problem cannot be solved, anyone has any recommendations on another sms program that has this added function in addition to the standard winmo sms program ?
Thanks in advance.

WM 6.1 and another ROM

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.

SMS/MMS Threading

Dear All,
I searched for this, but couldn't find any reference to this particular issue. I tried all the latest 6.1 ROMs and it looks like a WM thing.
All ROMs, have this new "FEATURE" which let's you view the SMS as a thread of messages instead of one at a time.
This is great, the only drawback is, that I can no longer move threads or indvidual SMSs to different folders; even the option to manage folders is dimmed (also the move option).
The only work-around that I have found, is to delete the message, go to the trash, and move it from there. However, there is still no way to create a new folder.
Any Ideas/Suggestions/Solutions for this issue ?
I too miss the split SMS/MMS. I wonder if it is possible for our favorite chef to put ArcSoft MMS 4.2.8.1 in his latest ROM and have it work properly?
This would make it possible to run Vito SMS-Chat and receive MMS properly. If Dutty's latest did run so damn good I would revert back for this reason alone.
I remember communicating with a very talented individual named Shogunmark. I'm SURE that this individual could separate the SMS and MMS. I don't think it was via XDA though. Seems I met him through another site.
Check out this thread. Simple registry hack to disable threaded SMS in WM 6.1.
I've done a quick search that didn't really turn up any results, so I wonder if this is even possible. Is there a cab file available that will replace the regular sms with the wm6.1 sms on a wm6 device?

In order to run Threaded SMS on WM6, you need to install a 3rd party program such as PalmSMS.

Threaded SMSs on WM 6.1 Question/Request

Hi there.
I have some questions, and perhaps a request regarding threaded SMSs on WinMo 6.1 (also known as 'conversations'):
I generally like this, except the fact that I don't see the Time Received & Time Sent. I just see the dates.
1) Is it possible to also display the time (next to date)? If not possible by default, is there some reg setting or perhaps program to do this?
2) Is it possible to open the individual messages from the Threaded view? I can't seem to open them.
Thnx

The time is only displayed on a text received on that day, otherwise its just the date (by default) If there is a reg tweak, i will have to look into that
2) Is it possible to open the individual messages from the Threaded view? I can't seem to open them.

You cant open a single text when the thread is open. Some people like the threaded option, some dont, if its not for you turn off the option
Of course there are apps out there like icontact (i think) that also displays texts in threaded way but more freindly and i think it gives the time too.

[Q] Diammond 2 MMS function

Hi All.
After 2 month using my new Diamond 2 (clone) phone I just found that I can't use MMS function in my phone because of no application for this function installed.
I checked out many forums regarding the MMS applications , but didn't found any correct answer or program that I can install for MMS support.
Pls correct me or explain me what can I do....
Diamond 2
WM 6.5 +SPB Mob shell 3.5.1 build 9666
Thank you.
i don't know about spb nor diamond clone, but in manila you can just go to messange, either compose a new message replying message, you can always insert picture/video/audio/attachment. Once you insert, it will automatically goes to MMS mode.
If in titanium, MMS can be access just using the windows default text. ( i think all WinMo 6.5 should have this fundamental text available )
