MMS not working after AKU2 Upgrade on 8125

As a newbie, I shocked myself that the rom upgrade went so smoothly! Push email is working great with 4smartphone, and the 8125 flies!
I installed a few of the original .cabs (smartdial, mms, edge icon) but I cannot get mms to work.
I had no MMS account option until I installed the MMS cab, but since then the account is there and I receive MMS messages no problem...except for 1 thing:
When the messages arrive, they download what appears to be the attachment, but the icon shows as a vertical black box attached to the message, and I cannot open the picture at all. I can redownload no problem...but the picture won't appear.
Also..the phone keeps trying to redownload the picture every couple of minutes.
Any ideas? Is there another cab I need to install?
thanks.
I am 99% sure I have the settings correct, as they were taken from c

problem is you installed Cingular's cabs on a new rom. Which rom are you using anyway? can't post too much information, but as you have, you can always post too little.
I am using the newer Qtek rom on my 8125 and mms works great. it also worked great on the Imate 2.16.9.1 ROM. But I just installed the default titled roms from the Imate and allowed the customization to happen for the Qtek. Then manually configured MMS Server as the MMS account was there after running the new cabs.

I am using the new ROM but I do not use MMS, howver I will note that QTEK's EXT rom has MMS cabs, I would advise doing a hard reset and letting the QTEK EXT Rom run. I couldn't find ANYTHING in the EXT that would be unwanted (*except MMS for me since I dont use it, but I still let it install, meh.) I don't know if I can send MMS with my current plan, I have unlimited internet but no sms plan or mms plan as far as I know... can I send and receive MMS? If so I will test it for you.
Later; Lew

you would get charged for sending them, I think 15 or 25 cents per message... but no need... I am using the Qtek ROM 2.17.7.2 allowed it to run the customization (ie all EXTRom cabs installed) and after I setup the MMS server it worked fine. Send and Receive.

Some people want to be notified that they are on EDGE and if you don't want to make a simple reg edit (change a 0 to a 1) then you can use the Cingular EXT Rom that sets the EDGE icon.

LOL, I thought the cab file had the ICON inside... care to share the registry value it changes? I liek making my own changes. =)
Thanx; Lew

Haaa.. Haa... nope... just this.

well...it seems I got it working.
I downloaded the newest imate released aku2 rom and reflashed the phone with it (after unlocking, etc.) As per everyones instructions, I hit the soft reset when it asked for the carrier so I didn't get any of the customization.
I then installed a few of the cingular cabs (mms, edge icon, smart dialer) and everything worked perfectly...except mms.
I found a thread at howard where someone had the same problem, and I found that I also needed to install 2 other cingular cabs. sms. and something with EON in it. After I did that, MMS worked perfectly.
so...as of now...the phone is flying (even with the few cingular cabs I installed.) no lockups, push email is working great.
keeping my fingers crossed. If I start having some problems, I will take your advice and hard reset. Until then...it is working very very well....mainly because of all the help and tips I got on this forum!

I agree, I'm glad this forum is here.
In fact, speaking of help and tips on this forum.....
dude!!!! I can't believe you didn't post some type of link to those files or atleast threads!!!!! To help others towards a solution!!!!
Somebody sent me a text message and I can't access the download....
Ah well, back to the search function.

FLAW with Underground Rom (MMS)

Hello everyone. If you have installed the arcsoft cab supplied with the underground edition, you will encounter a problem with receiving picture messages correctly. The arcsoft version that is supplied will downsample ALL incoming picture messages to 160x120 and less than 15kb regardless of the original file size. I'm not suggesting this is a problem with underground directly, as i love their version of crossbow. I am suggesting that the rom should come with a more updated version than 3.0 to solve this issue. Xelecins's wm5 custom rom comes with 3.2, and MB's crossbow rom comes with arcsoft 3.5. Does anyone by chance (as I have been searching FOREVER) have the the Arcsoft MMS composer 3.5 cab? The cab file in the xda ftp is corrupt and will not install. Can someone please upload a version 3.2 or higher (if possible the 3.5 cab from MB; but not from the xda ftp). THANKS!

Please stop cross posting every post in multiple forums. The mods have split WM6 to a seperate forum and it doesn't help when people then post in both forums the exact same thing.
Since this is WM6 specific and there is already an exact same post in that forum, Mods should delete this one.

Palm Threading App on keiser

I installed the Palm thread app ripped from WM6 device board and everything works except sending MMS I keep getting out of memory errors. I made sure that the pic is under 300k but as soon as I hit Send I get the message. I'm with cingular/at&t. I have searched regarding this but I noticed that for some people it works fine and other not so its hit or miss. But I wanted to know if anyone else has tried to use this on there kaiser.
Thanks

i tried it and no, you cant send any MMS's (I tried some of the other varients found elsewhere on this forum but none work better). In fact I found that this app had knock on problems all over my TYTN II and slowed down the machine considerably. Since this isnt an app you can just remove I had to do a hard reset.

Thanks for the reply hopefully someone figures out a fix for the slowness and mms not working on the tytn II

No one else has tried Palm threading app on there Keiser yet? and has mms working with AT&T??

I too tried it on my Kaiser and could not get the mms to work no matter what size file I tried, it would give me the memory error. I was able to uninstall it through the add/remove programs though and not have to do a hard reset.

I am experiencing the same. Luckily I don't use MMS very much so if I absolutely need it I can Uninstall Threaded SMS and fetch the incoming MMS then re-install threaded sms. I had same issue with Cingular 8525..Too bad, this is the best threaded sms app out there to me. I can't understand why they haven't built a threaded sms app that comes pre-installed. So basic. Everyone uses SMS. What are they thinking?

any updates on this one yet? I miss my threaded SMS/MMS

**** it doesnt work for me either
****ing BS...please shogun mark, HELP!!!

i wanna stress how important this app is to me.....i was sooo ****ing excited to go from 8525 to kaiser. this actually almost makes me wanna go back.... even though the kaiser is soooooo much sweeter. im beggiing someone to please please work on a fix for this!! please

has anyonetried setting up theconnection settings by hand in the Palm app? I always did myself and it works great

Which version of Palm threading app are you using?? I have tried to setup the correct settings for the ATT mms part and still as soon as I try to send a mms i get the "out of memory error"

if anyone gets it to work they are brilliant...i have the shogunmark version from windows mobile 6

ttttttttttttt

It is a known bug in the app. Just be thankful we have what we have. To better understand, go here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=621

Works for me. The Shogun version thats circulated around doesnt work. You need the full version. Do a search and you might find it. THe problems are the same on most WM6 devices, and not just the Kaiser.
P.S. Some f-in patience might make people actually want to help you. 6 posts, half dropping F bombs doesn't endear you to the community.

Temporary Fix
Well this is what I do to have palm threading and MMS working on my Tilt witch is something I have asked before but haven't gotten an answer but this is my crazy hack or whatever you want to call it.
My theory was well since the MMS portion for Palm threading is out of the question regarding a fix from what I have been reading about. I asked before If after you install palm threading is there away to enable again the default MMS application that came with the phone like that giving you the option to use palm threading for Txt's and sending MMS' to be sent by the default application witch i like better.
I have the files but I dont know where to upload them too but if someone can post them up I will send it to them.
Basically I managed to get me the cab installation of Arcsoft MMS composer ver 4.0.21.28 .. I noticed that tilt has a new version 4.0.3.?? anyways so basically this is what I did..
1) install Palm threading application - reboot device
2) Install Arcsoft MMS application - reboot Device
3) Install EnableMMS.cab - Reboot
4) Re-apply ATT MMS cab configuration so that MMS gets configured
Now when I press on the email key I get the option to compose a MMS and I can receive them fine..
Like i said this is something I just tried for the heck of it and it worked but I dont guaranteed it will work for everyone. I have tried this on the Tytn II and now I just received my Tilt and it works good.
If there was a way to just re-enable the MMS portion I think there wouldnt need to install the slightly older version of arcsoft composer viewer but I havent able to figure it out..
PS. I tried uploading the zip files but it keeps telling upload of file failed..

Can you e-mail me those files, please.

Hi, is someone able to upload these files somewhere?......thanks in advance

ok here they are.. Let me know if they work for you
http://rapidshare.com/files/61245824/MMSsetup.zip

Thanks doug0365, i will have to do a full backup first on my kaiser before i install the files......its missing the threadersms.cab though....but thats ok i found the file in the kaiser forum.......will report back later today of the outcome.....thanks again.

Latest Acrsoft MMS composer

I have version 3.0.0.25 on my HTC Universal, and I saw it mentioned that there is a 4.something version. Is there a newer version I can get a hold of? Or is there a competing version I could get a hold of?
My search began to find a solution to the shrinking of MMS pics on receive.

They're actually up in the 5.0.xx version now. But I don't think that will help. If remember correctly it wasn't the ArcSoft version that was causing the problem with the shrunken images. I believe it had something to do with the PIE User Agent Custom Base on how your device is reported to ATT. I think when I was using a non ATT ROM on my Tilt I had changed my device from the HTC_TyTN_II (Stock TyTN II) to HTC-8900 (AT&T Tilt) and it stopped shrinking my images.

recieving very small mms! PLEASE HELP

Hey there,
I have a touch diamond 2 with official ROM and i live in armenia i use MTS armenia sim card i went to costumer support they said its my phone problem and my phone is scaling the picture down but i dont belive in that.i read the other posts i tested the registry tweak but it didnt work someone please help me.

Yeah the phone has a higher res screen and the picture was sent from a phone with a small screen and sorry camera or screen size. That is why your picture is small. Try saving it and viewing it with the HTC album and Zoom-in. That should work.

no that is not the problem becuz the pictures recieved are max 3kb. so its a thumb.

Glad you asked this question as I have the same problem on o2 in uk. I tried the reg tweak from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359584 but it didn't help.
I'm hoping somebody has been able to solve it and can post.

I just want to add a +1 to this. Im currently using Duttys WM6.5 ROM R5 going to use R6 now, could it be a setting that is wrong?

im using the topaz essential 3.7 rom and this solved my "tiny" mms problems that i had with the other roms. hope this helps!

sounds like post#2 had it right. While you CAN change the max send/receive limit on MMS messages... typically they are 300k by default; usually the receive limit is 600kb. Here is my edited MMS Settings I cook with. I increase my limits up to 600k send and 1Mb receive. SampleMMSC is just the name I used, it could be anything.
You can check this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\MMSCSetting\[b]SampleMMSC[/b]]
"waptype"=dword:00000001
"GatewayPort"=dword:00000050
"MmscURI"="http://mmsc.cingular.com"
"Gateway"="wireless.cingular.com"
"Name"="AT&T MMS"
[b]"WAP1RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000
"WAP2RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000[/b]
"SendDefault"=dword:00096000
"ConnectionVia"="{B2AD7D1D-2C4B-494B-B324-42EEC882B71B}"
[b]"WAP1SendDefaultSize"=dword:00096000
"WAP2SendDefaultSize"=dword:00096000[/b]
"ISP"="SampleMMSC"
Looking at this code, WAP1RecvDefaultSize = FA000 (1024kb or 1mb)
WAP1SendDefaultSize = 96000 (600kb)
But I think the reasoning is that most phones don't have a high resolution. So full screen on my wife's phone is 240x320... plus most phones compress the image down for sending via MMS to usually 120x160... which as you can imagine would look tiny on our 480x800 screens. Just depends on the phone.

my registry entry is correct:
"WAP1RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000
"WAP2RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000
The problem for me is definitely with my carrier - o2.
As my TD2 is not from o2 and they don't actually sell this phone, they don't recognise the user-agent in WspHeader. Because they don't recognise it, they then compress the mms image right down to between 3 and 6k. I can send full size mms and they are received by others fine but anything I receive is compressed. I have sent myself mms - it leaves at around 250k but arrives at 6k.
I have found posts about changing the user-agent and profile in WspHeader to a device that o2 recognises but none of these changes have worked for me.
I'd be interested to see what anyone else on o2 (uk) that can receive mms of 300k, has for their user-agent and profile in the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader\User-Agent]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader\Profile]

Has been driving me nuts for weeks as well However I was sure that when I first got the phone (pre flashing cooked ROMS) that I received MMS @ full size.
So today, in desperation I flashed the official Topaz 6.5 ROM. Sent a test MMS to myself and hey presto it came back full size YAY.
Looking at the registry for Arcsoft/Arcsoft MMS UA/Config there are a hell of a lot more subkeys and values than was in the cooked ROM, so next step is to copy everything down reflash the cooked ROM and add all the subkeys and values. I may be some time LOL

I have exactly the same problem, flashed mine with 'Duttys Topaz WM6.5 Leo R7 WWE' rom, now I recieve tiny MMS pictures. Also on O2 (UK) with non branded phone.
Druboo please can you post what changes you have to make to correct this problem, I know it may take a while to sort but it will help all of here.
Thanks

Can now receive full size MMS on Duttys ROM
First things first, I use CERegEditor as a pc based regedit for my TD2 - So not sure if it will work with other regeditors. However, if Druboo's using it, it must have been free
With the stock 6.5 ROM still on the phone I made a backup of the Registry saved as Stock ROM.
Re-flashed Dutty's ROM and made a backup of it's Registry Saved as Dutty's ROM.
Then did a compare between Stock ROM and Dutty's ROM just for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA which resulted in 12 subkeys and 199 values extra in the Stock Rom. Saved the differences as Differences.
Imported Differences onto Dutty's ROM. Test MMS and hot to trot
Hope it works for you too

Is this cabbed up somewhere? I have no idea how to implement it but I am having this problem.

New Place to Edit
Well my previous fix no longer works on Sense 2.5 ROMS
It appears that the mms servers are now given the phone information from a different location. The good news for us poor belligered O2 UK users is that the Topaz is finally recognised in the Server database.
Point your reg editors to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\MMS\SP
Make UAProfile="http://www.htcmms.com.tw/gen/HTC_Touch_Diamond2_T5353-1.0.xml"
& UserAgent="HTC_Touch_Diamond2_T5353/arcsoft-mmsua-5.2.0.xx" and you should be back in business.
