Well I am using Direct Push with my Tilt and and I have it set up in my "inbox" there are many subfolders for indivdual employees or what not. But it seems to only alert me that I have new mail only in the main "Inbox" folder.
For example I have within the inbox folder a folder called "Backups" so that way every night the server emails me and lets me know if it completed succesfully. Each morning when the server sends out the report it gets moved right away to the backups folder within the inbox. The problem is my phone doesnt let me know that I have (1) unread message on my today screen. Is there a mod or a setting that I am missing, it seems weird that it wouldnt notify me.
You need to search. This has been discussed many, many times. The answer is no, it can't be fixed. If you want the notifications, don't move emails out of the inbox.

Well actually I figured out how to make it work. I have tried a lot of different Today plugins and the only one I found that actually lets you choose what folders are displayed and updated is SPB Diary. So actually you can do it, just thought I'd let everyone know

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:

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
Hi
I have quite a lot of folders in my Exchange mailbox that hang off the Inbox. I also have server side rules that move incoming mail into the relevant folder when it arrives, however the "new mail" notification in the Home screen only shows new mail in the inbox, rather than new mail in another folder. Can this be configured anywhere?
Apologies if this has been covered before - I did try searching but to no avail.
Cheers
Phil
Yes, I need this too. Anyone?
Thinking about the Exchange rules, is there not a way you could add a condition to the server-side rule so that it only sorts the emails into their correct subfolders AFTER they're marked as read? That's the only workaround I can think of for now (and having only used a Kaiser for about 25 minutes, I don't have much of a point of reference).
I hadn't thought of that, but having just had a quick play with the Rules wizard in Outlook it doesn't look like you can control it to that degree. It's a shame because that would work. If anyone can correct me that I would be only to happy to try it out. Failing that, does anyone else know if it is possible to change the Pocket Outlook behaviour so that new mail in sub-folders triggers the New Mail... info?
Cheers
Phil
Does anyone have any other ideas?
In the menu, select 'tools>manage folders...'. You'll be able to select the folders you want to synchronize.

No, there will be no notification if a new mail in other folder then inbox arrives. Tried that
Anyone else?

Go to PocketMax.net and submit this as a feature request to the author of PhoneAlarm - I asked him for the same thing and he's willing to pursue it if there's enough interest.
PhoneAlarm's custom e-mail notifications make up for a LOT of the missing DirectPush functionality, IMO - and this would be a huge help in that area!

Thanks for the suggestion, but this doesn't have any affect on the new mail notification. Ta though.

Ok I searched and didn't find anything so I'm posting here. Ok I purchased the program from iwindowsmobile.com called SMS chat. I like the program but for some reason it messed up my SMS messages. I would send some and they wouldn't send and also had problems receiving some. I uninstalled program and problems went away. I liked the program alot because of a clean interface but one thing I hated was that I would get weblinks sent to me from friends and the program did not allow me to copy the link or click on the link. I find that very annoying since people at work always send me links to different sites. Has anyone figured out a hack to get this working?
I am also going to add that I tried contacting the company, didn't work. I also tried to go into their FAQ section and there is no section. It keeps me at the same page. You would think copy and paste be something basic they'd include in the program.
Yeah..I use this app too. Those sms with links have to open through normal text messaging in the smschat folder, open normally and the link can be activated. Long way...emmm
i am also having issues with vito sms chat. im not sure if it is hardware or software related. it is only allowing me to send messages to one contact. whichever contact i select to message first, that is the only contact i can message. any others that i try to message after, it tells me "your text message cannot be sent" but when using the winMo sms, i have no issues. any ideas?
Hey guys the official Vito chat forumn for vito sms is found here: http://www.technologyatplay.com/main/forums/forum-view.asp?fid=165
Some or all your issues have been addressed at this link. I can definitely attest to the problem with opening links has been addressed. As you may be aware they're already on version 1.3 which has fixed quite a few issues. If your problem has not been addressed drop a line at the above address and within a day or two VitoI will answer your questions or at least address them
Hey all,
so i have two very strange issues...
1. Bluetooth OBEX - I can send FROM the phone to any device (That supports it) but I cannot send anything TO the phone from any device. Typically i will get a generic "Device does not support OBEX" error message
-- I have tried sending paired, and not paired
-- I have verified that filesharing is on, and all of my bluetooth options are enabled
2. SMS's not in order - When I installed my current rom (see my sig) And used PIM restore to put my SMS's back, they are not in the order that the conversation happened. If you look @ each day. the messages appear their's first for the day, then mine... its kinda weird.
-- In some instances I dont even see the messages that were sent to me. When I tried making PIMBackup to restore the messages again it said they were already there. I have received some new SMS"s that I dont want to wipe out if I can avoid it but i've never seen this before and it makes no sense
Another thing.. where do I edit the size of text on context menu's ? (asside from the start menu which was using LargeStartMenu)

Hi there,
1.Not all devices are bluetooth 2.0 compliant and I have the same problem sending from older devices.
2. SMS's order can be set in main screen. Select Received on top right
3.Text size can be changed under Start>Settings>System>Screen
There is a tab for font size at the bottom with a slide bar. I have set mine to 2nd last notch from right.
Hope this helps.

Hey MAC, thanks for the reply
for the bluetooth item, this is from my brand new dell laptop or even another att tilt. Even my friends 8125 that was working on some other roms i have problems with now.
the SMS issue is not on the inbox screen its on the actual message history screen. So if I click on an item in my inbox it brings up the coversation thread. In there it shows all of my friends messages first then the ones I sent in reply so instead of .... them... me .. .them.. me. its them... them.. them.. me .. me.. me ... its kind of weird
I had already checked the text size on the screen page. It was set to normal, but the menu's are still huge (see screenshot)

I see re the bluetooth issue. Nt sure as my laptop sends and receives fine from my TyTN II.
If you are using threaded sms then I can't help as I have normal one.
I see you are also using WK Task which comes with the Kaiser. I have removed that and opted for Quickmenu. It is MUCH better, smaller and gives you cascading menus like in Windows XP/Vista. It is also freeware. (File attached). Just place all the files in the zip archive to a folder anywhere on your device, create shortcut if you want, but I suggest you place a shortcut in the startup folder.

Yah I've been working on the BT issue since yesterday with no luck
I am using threaded SMS which is why its annoying me that the messages are not appearing in order...
I use WK task in tandem with QuickMenu... I love quick menu, but I still cant figure out how to fix the font sizes... its every context menu not just the tray apps... even my resco context menu is huge and i have to scroll it to do stuff its kind of irritating
Thanks for the suggestions tho, I hope someone has a solution for me, I really like this rom and dont want to change it
Ok So I just discovered that I am completely retarded and forgot to check the "Accept all incoming beams" option in the beam control panel applet... now, how do I go about fixing my SMS messaging issue and chaning the fonts for the menus? They are HUGE!
Thanks in advance!

Any suggestions on these other two issues? My threaded messaging not being threaded in the right order is really starting to irritate me I can use SK tools to see that all the messages appear in the database but they dont show in messaging correctly

Yup when I restore my Messages its not in order. I truly believe its because of how PIM restores the Messages. All Received First Then all Sent. So to the Device it IS in order. I've posted this thought in the PIM Backup thread. I don't think they've got it figured out yet. Sorry.

Actually I just finished fixing the PIM Backup issue too.. its kind of a known issue with 6.1 If you restore everything but your messaging DB. Clear your messaging DB in the messaging app. Terminate the messaging app process then run PIM restore... run the messaging app and let it rebuild the threads it seems to work.. Also make sure that you set your regional date settings to what your normally set it to BEFORE you run PIM backup... some people believe that this may also be the issue.... so process is...
1. Flash
2. Restore all of your data using PIM backup EXCEPT messages
3. Open messaging and clear your SMS boxes
4. Terminate the messaging application
5. Do your PIM Restore
6. Open mesaging
Worked for me!
1 more issue to go and thats the large menu font size!

Yup that only works 40% of the time for me.
I just upgraded by AT&T Galaxy S5 to G900AUCU2ANG3 earlier today and I noticed a new bug in the email client.
When you put a checkmark next to an email and then click the trash can icon to delete it, or choose to delete an email while reading it, you can't open another email from the email list until the "1 deleted." notification on the bottom of the screen goes away. You can press on another email as much as you want, but the app will only actually open the email once the notification has disappeared.
This is a new bug, it wasn't always like this. Unfortunately, it slows down my flow as I keep having to wait for that notification disappears to continue reading emails.
Does anyone know how we can inform Samsung of this bug?
Oddly enough, this may be intentional rather than a bug. Prior to this update, the only way for me to reliably delete an email was to swipe to the left on the message in the message list. Now that I have updated, all the different ways to delete a message work. It seems that the phone is communicating with your email server to delete the message(s) and nothing else can be done until that is complete. This is just my theory.

Hmm, interesting theory.
However, the phone should be capable of doing two things at once: allowing me to read another email while it's busy deleting another one.
