I had to do a hard reset on my wing and need to reset everything. Onlything I'm missing is removal of the 'message sent' notification after sending an SMS.
I have the information from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=360999, but I've been trying for half an hour. could someone walk me through it? I dont remember what I did differently the last few times. I dont have the 'setting' folder so I've tried almost every combination with soft-restarts to no avail.
thanx ahead of time.
try using schap's advanced configuration. it does not only this, but alot of other fun stuff.
search for it.
Simple google search turned up this cab from this site http://www.allshadow.com/?attachment_id=250 that should do it.

Has anyone managed to stop SMS from working? Something I've tweaked or installed is preventing me from sending messages - when I tap the SMS option nothing at all happens. I don't seem to be able to receive them either. With all the fiddling (Kaiser Tweak, GPRS Monitor, SBP etc) who knows what I've done. Just hoping someone else may have stumbled over the same problem before I have to reset everything back to original (It's the only fault).
Thanks
Are you able to compose an SMS at all?
Have you verified that your Text Message Service Center number is not blank?
Please provide more information. Phone, ROM, Carrier, etc...
Thanks for the interest,
I'm using WM6 standard ROM 1.82.707.0.WWE (ie not cooked) on the Tytn2, the service centre number is there and is correct according to the carrier (Telstra Australia).
It used to work fine so I'm assuming that I've tweaked something I should have left alone, or one of these installs has jammed it up - just no idea what!
If I pull up a contact and tap the 'Send Text Message' option nothing at all happens, just sits there looking at me! I don't seem to be able to receive texts either.
Installed are the standard apps plus Google Maps, GPRS Monitor, Kaiser Tweak, Resco File Explorer, TomTom, SPB mobile Shell and Diary, QuickMenu.
I know it's a tricky one to fix from a distance (so many settings, so little patience) but any thoughts would be appreciated.
I had the same problem a few months ago and tried everything. Defaulted my tweaks and adv config etc. Eventually I had to reinstall my rom which is a cooked rom and all came back and have not had any problems since then. Hpefully you do not have to do this. You should try a cooked rom.
Ok I want to take a shot at this.....
Ok Does Telstra have the ability to send SMS to mobiles from their website? If so try sending one to yourself.
Next. Go into Messaging, Menu -> New -> SMS. Type in your mobile and Send.
Oh and Uninstall The SPB product Soft Reset and try again.
Let me know If that works.
Can't find a way to send sms from telstra (easily) so tried from another mobile. The other mobile says it can't send the message. I'm (almost) sure this is my phone rejecting it rather than a network of other phone's fault.
When I tap on Messaging in the menu nothing happens - doesn't take me anywhere at all. Same thing if I tap on 'send text message' option in contacts.
Removed the spb stuff, did a soft reset, still no go.
Keep the thoughts coming though. In the end it would probably be easier and quicker just to hard reset now, but it's the challenge of figuring it out that's interesting isn't it? It's going to be one of those dead simple slap your forehead things I reckon.
Thanks for all the help so far.
Have you tried reinstalling the Arcsoft SMS/MMS client? There are many different versions floating around XDA.
OK it's fixed. Here's what I did:
Discovered that the 'Messaging' menu item in the start menu pointed to a file called tmail.exe
Used file explorer to navigate to tmail and ran it directly
Fell over laughing when it actually ran
From that time on it works via any link, such as the start menu and contacts option to SMS
I have no idea what that's all about but I'm really happy to have it back - although I haven't tested sending and receiving texts yet
Interestingly a very similar thing happened to Mortscript - I have a script that rotates the screen and runs TomTom (not mine, found on xda-dev) and it wouldn't work either after all this fiddling until I ran it directly rather than through any links. Now it works fine too.
If anyone knows /why/ it happened I'd be interested.
Thanks for all the support. Really great knowing there's such a community around.
Alrighty then, spoke too soon. Now it works when the sd card is out, but not when it's in. Same old problem, tap on messaging and nothing. With the card out of the slot, messaging appears. What the heck is this?! Could it be something to do with where messages are stored? I'm also getting this storagecard2 problem each time I take the card in and out which is easy enough to fix but could be contributing I suppose. Any more ideas?
Edit: I repaired the storagecard2 directory issue, cleaned up all the references to storagecard2 in the registry (about 4), unticked the option to use the card to store attachments, and it seems to work. I've also re-synched and re-installed spb mobileshell. Last time it seemed to fail at that last step but this time is still working. Even after a final soft reset. I haven't reinstalled spb diary.
Has me stumped but works again now. Sorry to bore you all with this but someone may have a simple answer and the ordeal might help someone else I hope.
Based on all of these issues, I would definitely suggest re-flashing your current ROM again (not just a hard reset), and do a full format of your SD card outside of the phone. It sounds like you've got some major corruption going on...

Yes delete the storage card directory, if it gets corrupt the unit won't send or receive SMS.
Speaking from experience here
Thanks guys,
I've re-done the storage card and all is still working ok. I'm reluctant to reflash while it's working so I'll wait to see how long it keeps up.
Thanks again.
I installed Vito's SMS-Chat program, after testing it a while I uninstalled it. After the uninstallation I always get an pop-up saying the sms-message has been sent. I didn't get that before, and it's kinda annoying so I want it gone.
I've looked in start->settings->sound and notification, but there are no options for sms-delivered-thingy.
I've also tried Advanced Config, and tried to use the tweak there witch let's you enable/disable sms-sent-notification, but that doesn't change anything (I've applied the tweak, and reset my device, but nothing happened).
I've searched this forum and elsewhere for answers, but couldn't find any, I've emailed Vito but they haven't answered. I've seen that others on these forums have had notification problems, but they have all been about the opposite of my problem (their sms-notification has disappeared and couldn't get it back).
I use the latest standard rom from HTC, 1.93. As I see it, my last option is to do a hard-reset, but I was hoping I could avoid that.
Thanks in advance, and btw, I'm from Norway, so sorry for any grammatical-errors and such.
Use DiamondTweak.. disable sms sent notification..
Thanks for the help, that actually worked!
Somehow I lost Messaging capability. When I click on Messages from the main TouchFLO interface, touchflo itself closes and restarts on the home screen. If I try to access Messaging from the Programs section in the start menu, nothing happens at all. I have not deleted anything from the device nor have I added any other programs other than those listed at the start of the below thread.
Initially I set up the Fuze with these steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459335
I did however change other settings to suit my needs but I don't know what happened. It sucks to have a messaging phone that you can't send messages from.
Please Help!!!
hello, i am not 100% sure, but when u did the hard reset and skip "customization ie. bloatware" messaging "or mms " might not have gotten loaded, in other words, messaging was included in the bloatware... but i am not 100% sure, but thats what it sounds like, if that is the case, you can search for an mms cab. im sure someone has make a cab file for it, i will search and let you know.
EDIT.... dude you posted in the thread were you found these procedures, if you would have been patient and waited another hour you would see that you recieved a responce. go check, please post as you did in the thread were you get instructions from, download or whatever and then wait patiently. reading the response in the other thread, messaging should be installed even though you skipped customization.

I have searched and searched for the last 3 days on XDA and other websites for a solution to this and this is the best I can come up with.
http://freewareppc.com/communication/missedcallreminder.shtml
This program will repeat the notifications for SMS and missed calls. After you hit the "Apply" button the program appears to close but it's not it's sitting in memory but as far as I can tell it doesn't really hurt performance. What I did to solve the fact that you have to run it after every soft reset is I copied the shortcut to the windows/startup folder. When your TILT boots it will auto run and retain the previous settings. You just need to press accept when ever you reset the phone.
This does NOT cause the notification to continuously repeat even after you read the SMS like the registry edit does.
Unlike PhoneAlarm, this program is very small and doesn't slow down the device.
I am NOT the author of this program, just suggesting the program here.
P.S. As you can see by my join date, I am new the the neighborhood. I am by no means an expert, but I hope this helps other people avoid the search/install/soft reset/uninstall/soft reset (REPEAT 10 times)
For those interested, that program was actually started here on XDA. Here is the thread where you should post all questions and requests for the author.

Hi all,
I have the HTC Pure. I got a few text messages at once and my phone slowed waaay down. I deleted the 3 messages that I had, however all but one of them were marked as read.
I called AT&T who in turn called HTC and said that this is a known issue but they have no fix in place and not planned.
So now, my phone always says I have one new text message, and I went and "cleaned" all of my messages; sent, draft, inbox, and deleted.
Does anyone know of a fix or a registry key that I can edit so that I don't have to do a hard reset?
Thanks!
I think it is just a problem from your current ROM .
Like such question , I will suggest you to flash a new ROM or install a new SMS APP.
it is easy to fix the problem after you change ROM
I've been having the same problem, and we are not alone...see thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584623
I know I can cure the problem by re-flasing the ROM, but I was hoping for a less painful solution......plus there is no guarantee the problem won't happen again.
I have had this with emails before. Here is a program which fixed that. I'm not sure if it will work with SMS, but you can try....
Looks like a DB corrupt... The count is in the registry but also in the DB...
If you have a DB browser you can try to find the entry and change it....
Or you may also delete the DB, Windows will recreate a new one for you...

Nope, that's not the solution. And what kind of new SMS APP do you suggest?
Instead, try to hard reset the phone (Settings > System > Clear Storage), but back up the data (phone numbers etc) wih PIM Backup or alike into a microSD storage card.

Thanks for the suggestion. May I ask wha the "DB" is? I am somewhat familiar with the registry and I use Total Commander to edit it if need be.
I think it is in the registry as well; one value I would think. If not, do you think reinstalling the MMS software would work?
there use to be a hot fix for this on htc.com but it was for 6.1
not sure if they still have it up
well i had that problem in the past, it seems i had deleted an unread sms in the "deleted items" folder. After i deleted that one...i didn't have an unread notification...
other than that, i can't think of any solution
Had the same thing. As was suggested do a backup of all your personal data and then hard reset. No ROMS to play with no software to install (except any you already have) clean easy and cheap.

I know this is a problem with WM 6.5 and not Manilla/TouchFlo 3D. I was thinking that maybe if I can find the cab that runs when you do a hard reset if that will reset it and just install the standard stuff on top of what is there already.
On WM 5 it was easy to find that CAB file in the Windows folder but on 6.5 I can't seem to find it...
I've had the same issue a couple of times. I use FixUnreadCount...

I Ran FixUnreadCount, and it worked a treat! Did a soft reset and the counter disapeared.
Thanks again!
I met the problem too, and I reset to the default configration, then restore the contact list and reinstall programmes
hello i got the same pb on my sfr 6.5 today on text message :
to supress it i have tries the fixunreadcount then soft reset but no résult
then i have wrote a mail to my mobile phone mail account ; recive it then read it and tadaaa the unread notification on sms have disaper
Fixed too
Hi, I had this problem once before (last year) and ended up having to do a hard reset.
Got problem again the other day and really wanted to avoid another HR so did some digging. This utility worked a treat.
Ran it, counter still said 1 unread message; turned off and re-started, counter unchanged; happened to receive a call almost immediately so let it go to voicemail, checked voicemail and when I'd finished the notification had gone!
From what the previous post mentioned about sending self an e-mail, I guess it had something to do with the notification system receiving a prompt?
Anyway, sorted and v.happy!
