Hi
My SIM-Card will not hold more than 30 messages, and I'd like to use the "copy to phone" function to store them locally on my Himalaya and free up space for incoming messages on the SIM.
Doing so, my Inbox properly shows the copied messages (with appropriate symbols, whether they still are on the SIM-Card or already stored on the Hima).
Unfortunately, after a soft-reset, these locally stored messages are gone - that is: even after changing the SIM-Card (and the need of shortly removing the battery), I will loose every message that is NOT stored on a SIM-Card.
I am a bit confused, since c_shekars ROM is said to be soft- and hard-reset persistant, and all other installed software is still working properly after a soft-reset. Why then would all the messages be gone from the inbox?
Please advise, how to solve the problem...
BTW: I am using c_shekars WM2006 AKU7.0 RAMDisk-40MB Pagepool size-24MB for Himalaya
changing the sim always deletes sms etc form the fone... i dont know why but I think its a built in feature of the fone... and its like that on most fones ive seen. A security/privacy feature i think.
If u want to chenge sims regularly try using/scheduling pimbackup for smss and the sort.
Hello
thanks for that insight - but what about soft reset? Do you think, that is a security setting as well or would that be something to be able to corrected, that local SMS are deleted upon a reboot?
Additionaly, let me ask one thing about pimbackup: I have seen, that I can create a schedule, so that I do at least have a daily or even hourly backup of SMS's. Is that backup executed also when:
a.) the Hima is switched off, but the phone still on
b.) the Hima is switched off, AND the phone is switched off?
Thanks for the answers, in advance!

Hey there guys. I have this problem: when I hard reset my qtek, so when it is "brand new", after I do the internet gprs and mms settings, both work perfectly. After I install my programs, the problems begin: I can only SEND mms and not recieve. Only the screen lights up, nothing else. The gprs also starts "kidding": it keeps trying to connect , and after a while it stops and says smth like "cannot connect for unknown reason, bla bla". Only if I soft reset the device t
e gprs will work, but NOT the mms (still cant recieve). I have installed some games and some apps: implus (messenger), netfront, pocket plus, gprs monitor, animated today, zenphonetools (profiles manager) and thats about it. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA of what could cause this problems? And maybe a solution?! THANK YOU!!!
i have the exact same problem with mms receiving. i hope someone out there can provide the answer.
i have the same problem too... someone out there pls help~!
I have a problem witch is similar to this problem:
when someone send an mms, i just receive an sms witch ask me to see it on the net
i wonder is there any Pull technology to actually "pull" those mms i cannot receive....?
Same problem!
are we asking anything wrong?
some one out there pls help us...!
please help!! clustered, can u help?
Once I tried to reinstall MMS app - helped but not for a long time
Run: \Windows\LoadVDisk.exe
Then go and tap: \Extended_ROM\CAB-MMS20020-Alpine-ENU-21DEC04.CAB
Then You may have to update Your MMS setting (not sure);
If some files can not be overwritten- rename them and retry installer (You may delete them after successful install and soft-reset).
Good luck!
P.S. I would like to find the real reason of this problem!
MMS problem
I have exactly the same problem as "leoking3". Manny users think that MMS is anyway useless and too expensive (me too), but this problem is bigger than it seems.
After I send a MMS the connection does not disconnect completely (on todayscreen connectionsymbol still active but ther is no active connection anymore (you can check this in the connectionmanager). I guess the problem is the inbuilt connection manager who has problems to switch between the MMS-modem connection and the GPRS-modem connection. Pressing the red button for 3 sec. and the connection icon switch back.
But sometimes silently the radio part hang up too. This is not visible for the user because on the display everything seems OK (GPRS icon + Networksignal icon show good connection) . You only realice when you want to dial out, or somewone tries to phone you or if you want to connect to the internet (then you get the errormassage: unable to connect, check connectionsettings).
This happens not only during sending or receiving MMS, but also sometimes when you change your location and book in to a new network cell.
I first thought that its a radioproblem, so I updated to 1.04, but still not working well. The problem is that this is not happening all the time and you can not realice when your phone silently stucks.
Maybe this happens to much more ALPINE users than we guess. But maybe they do not realice the problem. Because when somebody tells them that they where not reachable by mobilephone, they may think that this was because of bad network signal when they are on the road.
My symtomes:
GPRS connection, Send/receive SMS + Email and sending MMS - always possible (except somtemes when radio part unvisibly hang up)
But MMS receiving - ony the first time possible after doing a hardreset. When I disconnect the networkconnection or wait for a while the display lights up for 1 sec. immediatly after I sent myself a test MMS but nothing else happens. But I found out that the radio part is tying to receive something (invisible), because I can hear through the loudspeakers of my Desktop- PC the typical noise when a phone connects to a GPRS network during the reciving process. The MMS never arrives in the postbox. I asked my servicprovider to check. They said that their server realiced the MMS transfer and got a feedback that the massage was sent/received correctly.
I think it is not a question about wrong settings. On my Hermes these settings work well. On the Alpine it works, but only once. Also my servicprovider confirmed that. (Allthough I tryed manny different settings too).
Its also not a problem of other external programms.
I tested (not only once) with a complete clean system (Hardreset and not installing any cab´s in the ext. rom except the MMS-cab and no external programms) without afford.
Made Hardreset, and let the system install the complete ext. rom automaticaly, did not install any other software and tested for two days too. Same result.
Tryed with 3 different SIM cards - same result
Removed STK (Simtoolkit programm) from autostart / Softreset - same result
I updated radio to vers. 1.04 - same result
I did not try to change the ROM jet, but i am afraid that this has no sense because other users have the same problem with different ROM´s too.
I´m so curious about the reason, Is it a hardwarebroblem?
Pleeeeees Heeeelp !!!!!!!
P.S.: To fred92150: Your problem seems to be a different one. When servicprovider sent you a sms means that the sms was not able to submit the MMS. Maybe you use wrong Port (usualy use 9201)

I've got all these symptoms
I've got all these symptoms too...
exactly the same!
only can receive mms for once after hard reset!
and the phone silently stucks many times...
i'm sure many alpine users actualy facing the same problem just tat they don't realise it...
pls help! pls help!
anyone facing the same problem???
if u have the solution pls tell us!!
pls help us!!
i already found a solution for the problem...
temporary working for me currently! (i hope it will last!)
i flashed the ROM provide by pug, (THANKS TO PUG)...
i change a bit of the registry and it's now working ok for me!
for the GPRS connections, i added the disconnect and timer for the GPRS Flag.
for the MMS problem i modified the registry:
HKLM\Security\Policies\policies
and change the DWORD value of the 0000100d from "64" to "4095" dec.
i found this registry is actually something to do with PUSH WAP features...
it now working find on my PH10C, i'm able to receive and retrieve MMS and GRPS connection are able to connect and disconnect and then reconnect for many times!(before this it will only allow to connect GPRS for once, i have to soft-reset to reconnect GPRS)
i hope it will help u guys out !
Hi
i am experiencing the similar behaviour, i recieve the notification of the MMS, but when i click to dowload it says cannot download from the server. is this the same thing or do i have a different problem ??
does anyone know how to test the GPRS apn to mayb log the activity incoming to the phone when recieving and MMS?
How can we identify why an MMS is not recieved.
regards
reo
i think u're not the same problem...
try to get the right settings for your GPRS and your MMS...
as long as u can connect to the internet by using GPRS, then ur GPRS settings is ok..
Guys, please go to settings, system, memory, running programs and stop ActiveSync. Bingo! your GPRS connection is working again. Remember of always stop ActiveSync before trying to connect with GPRS.
When ActiveSync is runnig the device assumes that it is the main connection mode at that moment and blocks GPRS.
>connection conflict switching from mms to emails and viceversa
i'm not really sure it's the same problem....
>connection conflict switching from mms to emails and viceversa
(modified from previous version)
Dear All,
emails work fine when i use emails only, and mms work fine if i use only mms,
but each time i send mms and then an email (OR VICEVERSA) and i go back to the first type of message, the software still refers to the last connection and the messages obviously are not sent. So i can use one type of message then the other type, but when i want to use the first message, the connection would use the second message type connection and then i can't sent any: the only solution i have each time is to quick-reset the unit and do all the settings for all the connections from zero (either using the quick auto-configuration file supplied by the distributor or doing the settings manually).
it has always been like that (bought new in jan 2006). according to the distributor everything should work properly as the unit is "perfectly compatible-compliant", so i took it to their service center and few months later they gave it back saying everything is fine... but the problem is still there and the service center has seen the problem is still the same but there's nothing they would do! i can't understand... would you please help me?
please help!
thank you
Im not sure if this was answered already, but I couldnt find anything.
I noticed that ALL my received messages, show timestamps in GMT timezone. Someone sends me an SMS at 7pm my time (EST), it will show up as 3pm. The messages that I send, show up normally.
Maybe it is good to give some more information on you ROM for example
Did you look at regional settings in the settings menu too? (probably you did, but one might never know )
My ROM is the one that shipped with the phone. Regional settings are set to my time zone.
anyone know how to fix it?
ive got the same problem with my tytn II. solved by hard resetting...
hope it works also for you...(if you dont want to lose yours data make a backup first, but sms...)
also noticed this problem...i've hard reset my device once after this and flashed at least 3 different roms on my diamond but the issue is still prevalent...
maybe related to the fact that all my sms' are continued from convos backed up by PIM

yes! it's a compatibility issue of pim backup...in my tytn II, backuping all sms, if i change rom the incoming sms time is wrong...
not tested on diamond cause here i use a new phone number...

Hi everyone..
I am a somewhat profiecient Tilt user.. had a few windows mobile phones before.. and had my tilt over a year.. I never had any problems with the WM 6.0 rom so I never upgraded it.... But now I ahve a problem... Today my GPS wasn;t locking on so I reset the phone, and as usualy it fixed the problem.. but now my messaging (and email) won;t work...
I have the HTC Home Installed (been installed a long time) and I use the buttons on the clock screen on it to access my MMS and Email... I went to send a txt and it did nothing.. I thought hte phone was froze.. but other stuff works.. I tried email next.. same problem... It also says the MSVC has encountered a problem and that is not working either.. it all happened at the same time....
The real problem is I have my phone EXACTLY how I wanted it.. with this tweek and that tweek... This program and that program.. this setting & that setting... sigh... I have an odd provider (Einstein PCS) so I had to set up all custom MMS, Email, Internet, and other setting that took a long time to get them all just "right"... I thought the SD card may have went, but other software that I know is on the SD card runs fine (including tomtom)... Any suggestions from anyone before I do hard reset? Please.. I don;t want to have to redo everything...
Retrace your steps
Hi
I have found that when something stops working after installing new software, if I uninstall any software, in the reverse order it was installed, this usually restores functionality. Uninstalling one piece of software at a time and running trials in between uninstallations usually helps to identify the culprit. If you haven't actually installed new software to co-inside with the failure then this advice is no good for you.
For future reference I would recommend using Sprite Backup (I think that the latest version is 6.5 and can be found on their website). With this software you can make a back up of your existing configuration prior to installing any new software. Then, if anything goes wrong you can just hard reset and run the backup file (stored as an .exe file) from the storage card and you'll get back to exactly where you were before the install.
Hope all that helps.
Cheers
andrew-in-woking
Thanks for the advice but I did nto install anything.... I will get that sprite backup though for future use... thank you.... What I did find this morning is this...
http://www.htcwiki.com/thread/107262...&maxResults=20
It seems many other people have had MOST of the same problem... When I followed the directions and deleted the inbox om my SD card, it fixed everything... even the Microsoft Voice command.. no idea how they are related, but it must be.... The only problem is that now after doing all this research on new ROMs, I found one I want to try... now I gotta decide if I want to go through all that work if I don;t have to... I think I will do the sprite backup.. download a default at&T 6.0 rom if I can find one.. then TRY The new rom.. if I hate it.. install the default rom and resotre my settings.. Thansk for you help though

Do you have your Einstein settings. I haven't been able to get my Fuze to connect reliably. I'd certainly appreciate it. Thanks!
Hello,
I had some freezes on bootloader.
Searching a solution on this forum, I updated my Kaiser 130 with a 3.29hard2 patched HSPL. I installed the PDACorner v8 rom, set my all stuff and made a backup with SPB Backup 2.
Since this time, every day, my Kaiser lose the contacts, the programs and calendar. The settings still remain. It happens while my ppc is USB connected to my PC, some hours after a sucessfull synchronization.
After each "crash", I restore the full system and settings with SPB backup.
Today, I thought the problem was on my Activesync 4.5. So, I removed it, reboot my PC and install Activesync again. I removed the activesync's settings on my PPC and launched a new partnership with synchronization.
But my PPCfinally "crashed" some hours after.
I hope you can really help me.
I tried HSPL 3.29hard2 and 3.34 ; radio 1.71 and 1.70 ; PDAcorner V8 rom and some others ; without success.
Greetings.
Restoring full setting might be a problem! What OS was your backup and what OS are you restoring it to?
I forgot to mention that.
Of course, I only used my backup on the same OS it was made.
Clearly, I didn't use the SPB backup's possibility to restore my settings on an updated or different rom.
The crazy thing is that the first synchronization is succesful and that my PPC seems to run normally until it crashes.
After each crash, I need to hard reset my Kaiser to reboot normally again (with all items in programs, Start, etc.)
I don't remember if I tried to set my all stuff manually instead of restoring with SPB. In fact, I'm just doing this try since this afternoon and all seems OK at the moment.
some bad news
I was trying my Kaiser's stability since yesterday afternoon, after a hard reset and without a SPB backup.
This morning I was thinking the problem was due to the restore of SPB.
But my PPC just crashes. So I have to search a new explanation.
Thanks for your help
strange... i have the same problem.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
i'm not alone !!!!!!!!
sorry... and welcome to my club !
Actually I have the following roms on the Kaiser :
- SPL 3.34
- radio 1.71.09.01
- PDA Corner V8 (win 6.1)
and Activesync 4.5 on the PC.
My ppc crashed so frequently during the last days that Activesync is totally lost with the two partnerships it can manage. I tried to completely uninstall this soft two days ago, but without success... for the Kaiser's stability, I mean.
I have to mention that I only attempted to create partnerships with the same PC, my work's one. Tomorrow I will connect the ppc only for synchronization instead of the usual all the day's connection.
Are your crash's conditions similar with mine ?
similar issues
i have had similar issues, I never worked out what was causing it exactly... it happens if i sync with active sync and even worse i have lost my whole sd card once (it's ok i backup, phew). I assumed i had caused the problem by using advanced config to move some of the basic file storage and caching to the sd card. in the end i have switched to Google sync for my contacts and calender and use Bluetooth to transfer files between pc and ppc. I had initially also thought it had something to do with sprite back up, so i had stopped using it. wondering if you have moved cache and default file locations too? cos maybe active sync has an issue with this (maybe a delay writing to the sd card?) jst speculating really. since i switched to google sync i dont have a use for active sync at all....
wondering if you have moved cache and default file locations too

No, I didn't.
I usually only change minor settings (regional settings, owner informations, ringtone, etc.) after a flash or a hard reset.
I made backup to speed up my ppc's customization, especially since crashes happened more and more frequently (ppc was under non patched HSPL 3.56).
I really think that two problems are chaining in my case. The first was my Kaiser's instability, due to the couple HSPL & TPCElite rom, which caused a great shake in my partnerships. The second is due to Activesync, I think, but I don't have any evidence at this time.
So, I just made two synchronizations today.
I have disconnected my Kaiser after each one.
And the ppc didn't crash again.
Hey guys,
Just moved this over to kaiser general, Wanted to keep the rom dev section a bit cleaner since this isn't really related to rom development.
Peace,

Joshkoss :
Sorry, I firstly thought my problem was a rom's one.
Finally, it appears that my crashes became from my PC's connection even I don't know why.
So, you are right !
This post shall not stay in rom section anymore.
I have two email accounts set up on my phone (WM pro 6.1) which have been working fine for months now. My phone is also never off, as soon as I get the warning for low battery, I fully charge it. Now today as usual, I've decided to check my emails using my send/receive option, but now whilst checking for changes, it shows I have xx new messages, but when finished the new email pops up for a second then disappears & none are there to be seen (it's empty). This happens with both accounts, but I'm still able to send emails ok (I've checked my emails with my computer & new emails are there as well as the email sent from my phone). I've checked/re-entered my email settings, done a soft reset, turned on & off the phone with no change to the email situation. Can anyone help? Thanks
I know that I've had problems opening up the program altogether. I save my items to the storage card. By deleting the "inbox-------" folder on the storage card, it started working again. I wasn't having the problem you describe, but it might help fix it.
