Well I tried PocketCM, and then uninstalled it. Now when I press the mail button or try to send a test message from a contact, nothing happens!
Does anyone know how to restore the native text messaging?

i would do a hard reset..it will clean it..i had trouble with palm threaded app on mine and i just hard reseted it..because even if i fix it some other way,everytime i send a text i will feel like what if that text is not delivered..i like the certain solution..hard reset will bring everything to factory installed version
Wow I really don't want to hard reset and loose all the software I've installed.
If no one can provide a way to reset just the text messaging I guess I will have to.
I figured other software has messed up text messaging before so there must be some registry entries or some way to fix this without re-installing the whole device.

Try to contact the developer.
Or ask for help in their forum:
http://www.pocketcm.com/
All better now. I was able to launch the Text Messaging app from a text notification dialog box and it re-asserted itself. Mail button works now. Strange.

I just rebooted, and now my text messages are gone! There's no "text messages" tab under messaging, and if I select a number and hit "send text message" nothing happens. Now there's an "IPM.root" folder in outlook express instead. Everything else seems fine. Any ideas?
What other software do you have installed out of curiousity?
I had a similar issue except that i didn't lose my text messaging, i lost ALL messaging. As in, I hit the button, clicked the icon, nothing happened. I ended up installing Pocket Informant as my default PIM and for messaging I installed Flexmail 2007. They are not free, but I like them a lot. One of the things I like about Flexmail is the pop/imap only works if the program is running. So if I'm sitting at my computer at work I can close Flexmail and not get redundant emails. Text messaging works as normal.
I never figured out why my messaging disappeared and found no explaination from anyone here. I've tried different ROM's, different software.

Do you have the option "store mail attachments on memory card" ticked?
If so, that's the problem.
It happened to me few times while using two memory cards, all you have to do is delete the folder with mail attachments on the card, uncheck the box, soft reset and check the box again( if you want), problem solved.
I did a hard reset last week and decided to give the standard messaging a shot. So far so good, and now that you mention it, I don't have the "Store attachments on memory card" option checked. It's been almost a week and I haven't lost my messaging.
Thanks for the heads up. Now it just pisses me off that I spend $45 on flexmail and pocketinformant when i really didn't need to.
So if it will happen again try to take out the memory card, soft reset, and put it back AFTER IT STARTED - that also worked
I really don't see a need for third party messaging application, the original is good enough.
The only thing that annoys me is unablity to copy-paste text between Messaging and any other programs, for example writing an email in Pocket Word then copying it and pasting to blank email to send it as a text, not word doc. :evil:
Does not work for hermes 200

I tried what you recommended but I still do not have text messaging as an option under my message selections. I only have outlook email, MMS, IMAP4 and yahoo. Somehow I have managed to loose the text message selection folder. Do you know of anything else that I can do? Thanks
Is there any way to get Palm's threaded messaging to work on the Tilt?
I tried the cab from the Hermes forum, which sorta worked, but it removed "Text Messages" from the main Messaging app. On the home screen, there were two lines that both said "No new text messages", one would bring me to the main Messaging app and one would bring me to the threaded view.
Also, I could not use the dpad to flick between the three. I could only choose "Email" or "MMS".
I was able to uninstall with no issue, but I would really like to see this work.

It does work. The other messaging is for the EMAIL. You should of just left it on and tried to get a txt message.
You got a quick link to the one on Hermes? I had a Palm 750 and kind of liked that feature. Would like to try it on the Tilt.
Found it....

I did leave it on and sent several text messages to myself to enable the threading.
The "Text Messages" option disappeared from "Messaging". They were no longer linked. Messaging ONLY showed MMS, Outlook Email and New E-Mail Account. I would have to leave Messaging to get to the home screen and pick the other text message option.
Once I uninstalled it, "Text Messages" was back in place under Messaging.
If you don't believe me, I can get a few screenshots to show you...
I've installed (on Tilt w/Kaiser ROM) from link above without any problems. Works like a charm!

i had the same result. i rely on the HTC Touch quicklink to get me to the text messaging now. its still better than clicking twice to get where i need to go but you're right it removes it from the messaging page. the hard button also takes me directly to my outlook email box which i dont use either which is unfortunate. like i said i rely on the Touch interface to get me to the txt msging.
fortunately i dont need any of that other crap - just txt messaging.

Sure it works... but does it remove "Text Messages" from the Messaging app like quazimoto have described?

yes thats how it works!!!! you dont need to have that option there. it makes its own text messaging program. Why do you need it to be there on messaging thats what I dont understand ?
because the other messaging buttons take you there by default -so when the other buttons take you there you're at a dead end.
thats why
So change the buttons in setting --- buttons
I like it.... BUT, I keep getting the "Out of Memory" error when I try to send a pic. I don't know if it happened to others, but my MMS feature along WITH my messaging feature went away when I installed the program. Does anyone know if a fix for this? I NEED the MMS feature to work.

Hi, is there any way to change the left soft key in the messaging app from 'Delete' to 'New', like in WM5? I keep deleting messages by mistake.
Many thanks.

Go to Tools / Options / Message and tick in "Warn when deleting messages in the message list".
Also, make sure you rea all my articles - I think I've also mentioned this in the Mailer Bible.
Thanks for the reply.
However, your solution doesn't remap the soft key. Maybe I wasn't clear. I want to change the soft key from 'Delete' to 'New', as in WM5.
Thanks.

I don't know of any hack to do the trick. (The switch was a deliberate and, IMHO, very nice change between WM5 and WM6. I really welcome it as I need to use deletion to get rid of spam than create new mail or SMS.)
BTW, if you do tick in the checkbox, you won't be able to delete anything by mistake as you'll be shown a Yes/No dialog every time you (accidentally) press the left softkey.
but i was very used to the old way. and i don't delete mails on my device, since they get lost after a while anyway, so it should have been an option instead of getting forced to.
Yeah, i'd also like to do this, i pretty much never delete things, and wouldn't mind having to go into a menu to do it, but obviously i create new messages all the time. I'd also like it to technically be a "new SMS" button, since i rarely send picture messages, but since SMS and MMS are combined in WM6, it would have to specify...

Also wanting this, but all i can find on google & xda-dev is the same answers, you can easily map a today softkey to create a new message/e-mail/pop e-mail or even give you a "new" drop-down list. But changing the one in messaging.....cant fine any answers
I've settled for this:

try to search this forum, I think I read about this some time ago. Unfortunately I cant remember where was it.
I tried to soft reset, clean all sms/mms box but not success... only highlighted that I have 1 unread meesage...
U have to clear it out from the registry.
I had this same problem for a very long time.
I had it so bad that even after clearing it manuall from the registry I would still get a new sms after receiving an sms.
Do a search with my user name and unread sms and you will find the address of the registry change needed.
It is nice this registry change but it not helps after SW restart / restart by Power Button.
Any other idea?
FIXED !!!
Find utils to fix this issue. So run on device and SW restart...
Has any one experienced a problem with Touch Flow 3D when the number of new messages displayed by the green number on the messages tab is stuck and won't clear even when all messages have been read in the mail application?
Any ideas of how to clear/reset the Touch Flow 3D so it no longer shows new messages indicator?
To date I have tried several hard reboots, deleted out all recent messages from when this problem began, however it still wont clear.

At your email click on inbox, so your in the Microsoft list view then click on the top left inbox drop down. You will now see the tree of all the email boxes. If you expand the Outlook email you should find that the unread email is the one automatically created in that inbox.

The problem is with the Messages tab, not the Email tab which links to outlook. The Messages tab loads up to ArcSoft Messages application to handle SMS messages. When I go into the inbox of this application there are 0 (zero) new messages.
Go through every msg and wait 5 seconds
Hey did you ever fix this? I have the same issue and it's driving me nuts!
Same here. Nothing above worked. Any other suggestions????
+1 same problem here except on a touch pro, any solutions?
its not removable unless you flash the ROM again
flashing the rom again fixed this issue for me
Inbox clearer
Hey guys I just ran across this thread and have a program to solve your problem. Ive had it around for a while and I do not recall who wrote it but just run the .exe and it should solve your problems. If anyone knows who wrote it feel free to mention.
Thank you for sharing.
I had the same problem. now, it not just 1 sms, but 2 sms.
I try all the solution, except flushing the ROM. can someone teach me how to do that? and what is the risk?
thank you
