automatic resend of failed sms

Is there any way to configure automatic sms resend?
I've found that if the message is not send due to coverage conditions or simply by failure, then it stays that way until you manually resend it.
If windows mobile does not include this, then, is there any app that will help me out with this?
Thanks!

this is my problem too..

It's a great point. I would also love to see a fix for this. Nokia N95 and others work well by rescheduling unsent messages for 5 minutes later.

I've been searching for ages but haven't found a way to do this yet.

Would be really handy if this was possible.

Agreed, I'm used to this on every single phone I've had and was shocked when I discovered a whole folder full of unsent when I got this phone - particularly after insisting to people I had sent the messages!

So we all agree the diamonds signal is crap? lol

i have just got my diamond and not yet been to my place of work with it looks like i am going to get this problem as the signal is already crap
gary

One thing I have found with the diamond is that holding your hand over the ariel (the top rear of the phone) really does make a difference!
Hope this helps you a little

You guys should try and test out some different radios. Check the Radio thread in ROM Development.
I tried them all and .07 is best for me, but that might not be best for you depending on your carrier, etc. Some radios give better reception but might chew your battery more, I guess it's a tradeoff (maybe).
I think once you find the best one for you it will be all good. I think the Diamond reception is fine!! I don't really have any problems with it.

Actually you're quite right, I remember someone giving me that advice before, just too lazy to get round to doing it

I agree it would be nice to have the resend SMS feature, I've had a good look around, and it seems it's only solved with 3rd party products..

Tilt's speakerphone performance?

Has anyone had good results using the Tilt's spearkerphone? I just got mine and everyone says my voice breaks up and theirs sounds like it's emanating from a tin can on the Tilt's speaker. My old simple Nokia 6102i performed better than this on speakerphone so I expected at least the same quality on this phone. But I want to learn if others have the same issue or if I got a defective phone.
Or perhaps a certain volume adjustment is needed?
(???)

If you're not going to search, at least keep your questions in one thread
The speakerphone has been okay for me; not the best thing but it runs fine. It's a little harsh so you can't understand a lot and the microphone isn't very sensitive.

Yeah, sorry for jumping the gun instead of searching first.
Having done a search here for speakerphone I found at least one person with the problem and what he thinks is a fix here.

I was facing the same problem. After upgraded to WM6.1, problem solved. I think it is the speakerphone algorithm problem with the WM6.0. Please check your windows mobile version.

Dumb question, but where do I find that? I opened ABOUT from SETTINGS and found:
Windows Mobile 6 Professional
CE OS 5.2.1662 (Build 18128.0.4.4)
I don't see 6.1 anywhere... so wuddya think?

This means your phone is using WM6.0. Upgrade to WM6.1.

My speakerphone sounds tinny; I have to turn the volume down to about 80% to even understand the caller.
The real problem is that no one can understand ANYTHING I say when using the speakerphone. This is my third Tilt (one just died, one had a screen die.) Kinda defeats the purpose of having a speakerphone!

try garmin's v2 rom! for some reason it has worked wonder with my speakerphone! I was even able to talk in my car with both windows rolled down and the party still was able to hear me with no problems! Never was i able to achieve this with stock or any other rom out there!

What is that and where can I learn more about this.
Also, are you talking about any additional hardware devices such as external speakerphone devices to use with my phone?
Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. At least I know it's not just me. For anyone not using the speakerphone, I guess it's no big deal. But for someone who makes real use of it the Tilt is very disappointing and perhaps impossible or useless to employ.

Wouldn't that void my phone's warranty? (AT&T)

I am from Malaysia. I sent my Kaiser back to HTC Distributor side and they upgraded WM6.1 for me. It works fine for me. The speakerphone now is lough and clear. I am not sure about AT&T, you may call them.

Yeah, WM 6.1 is not yet available for AT&T Tilt users. It has been released from MS to AT&T, though. They are still in pre-release testing and such I guess. Upgrading a non-AT&T release would void the warranty.

1. There are no differences in speed in regards to color.
2. I haven't used the Pure Rom.
3. The sliding mechanism is the best I have ever seen, felt, and used.
4. The Loud Speaker Volume is not loud enough in public places of with the television on. Not suggested for music playback.
No, I have not faced these problems on my X1
Yes, the phone is extremely slow for a Windows Mobile device.
Also, there are more problems that you should be aware of. After a long span of use, the device will show cracks and lose it's paint. Second, the keyboard will lose it's sensitivity within 2 years (phones are suppose to maintain a functional keyboard forever).

Thirded. Ultimately the only major problem I haven't been able to solve either through Sony repair or tweaking is the sluggishness of the phone. I would say that I now have a phone that does nearly everything I want, but it's fairly slow. I also wish the camera and video recording were better, but they are better than what you might expect on a WM phone, I guess.
ps welcome back Orelsi. Where the hell you been???

I second that emotion. Although sometimes excessive I always appreciated the harsh smackdown orelsi would bring to the iPhone trolls that would come here (no offense to rational iPhone owners). It seems they have left us alone now. Perhaps they have gone to Leo forums?

[Q] Laggy in-call sound quality

Hi
Just wanted to know if others experience this too?
when making a phone call, my sound is lagging/blurry/scratching. Sometimes sound like (kind of) a robot.
I live in the city, and signal loss or network change is therefore not an issue.
Just thought it was wierd, but guess it will be fixed with update.
From post #12:
I hoped this was just a software error, but baseband upgrade and custom ROM didn't work. This is how it sounds
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4651820/Stemme 002.amr (starts around 15 sec)

Exact same thing here. Sounds like a loose connection in the speaker. Same city as you, but on 3 instead of TDC. Nothing to do with network, it's either soft-or hardware error in the LG. Let's just hope it's soft

no problem here the sound is perfekt. i have telia

Its a known problem.
I sent the phone back as DOA because of this and few other problems.

Sorry. Forgot to change provide r, I'm on 3 as well...
I hope it's software too. Waiting for better rom from paul before testing...
My camera has stopped working as well of today : s
Started of so well with the phone. But sucks with bugs on stock rom

Thanks for heads up. Looks like it's software error fortunately, so Im more calm now
Found this at Paul's forum.
"Problem solved with the new baseband I think. Haven't noticed any tinny sound effect when in phone - either 2G or 3G connectivity.
It's a shockingly large improvement. Really bad that LG sells the phone with that software because mine was almost unusable in crowds because you had no idea what the other person was saying. Will be keen to jump to newer basebands now if they become available since it's proven it does make a huge difference. At least it's not a reason to NOT buy this phone anymore since it's easily fixable thanks to Paul now "
Problem was solved after update.

Hehe, funny to be quoted here, from a thread I started over at MoDaCo. According to my poll there a lot of 2X users experience bad sound.
Like I wrote at MoDaCo - I haven't noticed any weird sound after the baseband flash, so please upgrade and tell me if you also notice an improvement. I'll update the thread accordingly.
Btw, what baseband are you currently on?

If this is truly a hardware issue, don't delay- send it back. Furthermore, be mindful of the replacement you receive. Here is an example of an "ugly" situation that happened between two owners. Be firm & inspect your replacement thoroughly- if it's not in "like-new" condition or has residual data from a previous owner, argue for a brand new 2X.

I think we got quite good policies in Denmark, so I'll probably just get a new one at first But thanks for the advice. Hopefully the next will show up better.
A friend of mine experienced pixel "errors" on his AND his girlfriends, so the next one better be fully functional... I know that TDC provider in Denmark wanted to postpone the release too, because of malfunctioning devices. This was before they ever sold any, and they haven't got them in stock yet
I hoped this was just a software error, but baseband upgrade and custom ROM didn't work. This is how it sounds
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4651820/Stemme 002.amr (starts around 15 sec)
Now I just have to wait for "three" to send it in, and return a new one... if it happens three times, I'll get my mony back, and perhaps go for the SGS2 and hope it gets Tegra2... a shame, such a nice phone otherwise. Hope they make it work, but I hear a lot of complaints *fingers crossed*
EDIT: Damn, just heard of three occasions of the same problem here in Denmark... hope they can fix it

I'm not experiencing any scratchy sounds like you, not even before I upgraded baseband. So I guess it's not all O2X in Denmark that has the problem.
I bought mine through Callme.

The problem has been there all the time for me. Just saying the update didn't work for me, so I guess it is hardware related in my case. There has just been some discussions about wether it is hardware or software related.
The problem doesn't occure on all devices, but some are unlucky. 2 of my friends, which bought it on the release date, as my self, has experienced the same problem.
Also, on mobildebat.dk (danish forum) people complain about having the same problem. Such a shame.
I turned in my phone now, and has to wait for up to 10 days for LG to come up with a solution now Hope it goes faster. If i went down to the store last wednesday, I would hav gotten a new phone right away, due to 14 days return policy. Now I have to use my Nokia N82, damn it's slow

Hi,
I have had the same problems on my week old phone. Scrathy sound, Buzzing sound that both ends can hear and the other end sounding "tinny" or like a robot.
I also had random reboots.
Sent it in to repairs monday, hopefully it won't come back with "no faults found".
MY local Telia shop, where I bought the phone, hadn't heard about the problem from more than 1-2 people. Danish LG customerservice also hadn't heard about it. (This was a week ago.)
BTW: Is it normal for camera area to get very hot during calls? I had that too. Battery time was ok. 1-1½ day of normal use. Heavy wifi/talk/gps = less than a day.
I made a recording of the buzzing sound (starts at around 20secs in.):
dl.dropbox.com/u/4130839/Out_2011_03_27_14-06-29_%2B4550800950.3gp
This buzzing is sometimes so loud you cant hear what ppl are saying, and they have a hard time hearing you too.

Headset mic way too sensitive

Hi All,
Got the Z1 last week about 9 dates ago as a replacement for a Samsung Galaxy S3. Generally liking it, though struggling to get used to the size of the handset. One major issue, though that I can't easily sort or find an answer to anywhere.
Basically, when I use a wired headset with inline mic for phone calls, the microphone is way too sensitive. It picks up every movement of the headphone cord, every rustle on my clothes, etc. Tried about 5 different headsets, including a dedicated Android one button Sennheiser headset. All the same. None of these proved a problem with
Anyone any ideas on what's causing it or how to fix it? Is there something simple I'm missing? It's making calls a painful experience.
Thanks in anticipation.

Nope. In one case, the headphones/headset goes back as far as an IPhone 4, so about three years ago. This is the first time I've had the issue with any of them.

Tried that. No change. S3 better than this? In this respect only. V pleased to see the back of the S3, as it constantly had firmware issues, caused, no doubt. Random battery life issues (sometimes lasting a day, sometimes a few hours), crashes, screen redraw issues, glitchy music playback. I could go on.

I think with Root you can get work anything even the sensitivity of your microphone. It can be easy like edit build.prop that something more but I am sure the sensitivity can be managed. If I find something I will post.
