which device dou you have, and which rom you had before upgrading to the jasjar rom?

dont soft reset using a stilys. Use a program to allow flush the file bufferssss
yeah, thanks but.
i know that and honestly i still have to try it. BUT:
I just want to know WHY this happens, and WHY other users with the same ROM as mine is DONT have this problem.
And, if i incidentally do a Softreset or maybe take out the battery, i lose my account again! thats not a solution for me.
Anyways thanks for your hint . apreciate that.
can you confirm my thought about the battery? or maybe its REALLY losing the accounts just after a Stylus reset?
It hapened to me time ago.. Some programs, like outlook, dont flush their databases buffers each moment. So, if you create a new account, or delete some mails or sms (this actions modify the database files managed by outlook) and then you reset your pda using the stylus, many buffer may be not empty so you loose that information. When you reset your pda using a program (it uses a API funcion that allow the buffers to be flushed to their files) all the information is saved in disk and you wouldnt hava to loose anything.....
thnx
thats was a clear explanation, thank you.
Any ideas why this happens only on some devices, even if they have the same rom?
I ve repeated the test right now. I have sent a email to my account in gmail(this account is configured in my jasjar). I ve connected using UMTS an and i ve downloaded the mail. then a i ve soft reset using stylus. When the device has booted i have launched pocket outlook and the mail wasnt there. I ve downloaded the mail again and a i ve done soft reset using a program (handy meny). When the system has booted the mail was there. Conclusion: I supose Outlook use the api fuction "CeWriteRecordProps" to update or insert a new record in the outlook database and probably Windows Mobile 2005 uses a buffer policy to reduce the access to these databases. so, if windows hasnt written this records fisically to disk then you can lose some information if you reset using stylus. When you use a program to reset, windows informs to the device drivers that "sleep" is in progress and they have to save the unsaved information so the disk driver has a chance so save all.
I hope Microsoft change this policy soon.....
so you...
...think this happens on all HTC Universals?
I think it happens in all Windows Mobile 2005 devices....
ok, i´ll let you know in the next days...
...then i´ll receive some more universals. and also one of a freind of mine, who told me that he hasn´t got this problem. i don´t know if its true, but we will see...
I don't know.I ve repeteated this test with my jasjar and my himalaya(with magneto) with same results
i can confirm...
...your description to 100% !
with a "soft"-softreset everything is fine.
and i´ve found out why other devices semmed to do NOT have the problem. Those users setted up their account, and had serveral (100+) mails ond their pop-server. Poutlook took a few minutes tu download headers and part of the messages. in this time the "buffer" was "written back" to the mail-db.
So: I think that for now, all the WM5, or at least all UNIVERSALS got this problem. Some user just don´t realize it.
Now that we (well,i) now that it is not a problem of just my device, FOR NOW i think i can live with this solution. btw, i use Pocket Plus 3 as task manager and Softresetter.
thnx dherrero.
Thanx DHerrero
After your tip I used spb pocketplus 3.0 and the softreset works wonderfully!
Thanx for the workaround hope they'll fix it soon because pocketplus makes the system very slow.[/list]
strange....
With Pocketplus my system runs fast as always, no problems at all.
Pocketplus
Probably due too a combination of software then.
I'll work it out if you say its not due too SPB Pocketplus
Thanx
you re wellcome. There are many programs to soft-reset the device "softly" and thye dont brake the system.... For example Hany Menu and much more.. :lol:
I have a blue angel with WM6, it has been.... like..... 4 weeks when i upgraded, and "everything" (this means, the text messages sometime take A LOT to receive and to send)
any way, my BA works just fine, today, i synchronized my BA and Windows Activesync, so, i imported 4 pics to the memory.
I check the pics, and everything works wonderfull, i get out, i drove like... 20 minutes, i check de BA.... AND IT'S LOCKED!!!!
i mean, really locked! i can't unlock it!!!!!
please, help, anyone got and idea?
Btw, i can't figure out how to synchronize activeSync with outlook 07, all is activated, the option in AS, but i can't figure out how to do it in outlook (this is just because if i have to reinstall WM6, i don't lose all my contacts :S)
Please, really, help.
PS.- i do use search like 15 times, and it keeps throwing the same error:
"Your response to the spam question wrong blablablabla"
Thanxs!!!! many many thanxs!!!!!!! (and yes, cold and warm boot, nothing help)
done!
i don't know what was it, but i left my BA all night without the battery, i shove it in in the morning (almost 10 hrs) and it keeps locked up.
I pluged it in to the usb connector, and let it for about 20 mins. The alarms and notifications keep showing up and etc etc. I return, and voala! the unlock buttons works fine :S
Everything it's back to normal.
Thanxs in advance if anyone read the thread! mi BA is alive again.
Cya!
hi there
is there a way to change the standard delivery message "the message you sent to +xxxxxxxxxxxx was delivered" to show the name from the contacts. it only shows the number and its weird. 10x
This is a bug dating back to Windows Mobile 5. There is a cab fix which I have tried (not my work so credit to whoever wrote it) and appears to works fine. After applying do a soft reset. DISCLAIMER Use it at your own risk.
I have uploaded it to Rapidshare - link below

I tried the Win5 fix
it was great on my tytn
but here on the pro2, it runs fine for a while then after several delivery reports the soft keys for delete the delivery report disapears
so the notification on the task bar remains and only a soft reset remove it
any solutions guys?
Just started last night, my TP2 is showing 1 sms notification on TouchFlo3D and on the inbox folder. I have used Clear "Text/Multimedia" a billion times and also checked in another phone to make sure nothing is hiding on the SIM. Does anyone make a suggestion other than doing a master clear/reset phone?
Funny, I just solved this problem today and unfortunately, I had to do a hard reset (still backed up everything with with Sprie Backup thou.)
Well, you do have another option that didn't seem to work for me but it's worth a try, is to Regedit it. The location is HKEY_Current_User\system\state\Messages\sms\Unread and set the Count=0
When I tried, it would work, but as soon as I was to get another message, it jump back up to "2".
Good luck, Hope it works so you don't have to Hard Reset.
I will try, thanks for the tip
or this
find a program called fixedthreadcount and you just have to do a soft reset after running it.

Hello,
I attempted to post earlier but it did not seem to work, so go to this link it should fix your problems:
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/samsung-i700/23911-1-unread-sms-count.html
Simply download the zip file, copy the exe file to your SD card, run it, and do a soft reset. Hope this helps...
Ok, so forget the link, simply download the attached file.
awesome, thanks a million for the prog. i tried the regedit 1st with no permanent fix, but the prog fixed it.
it worked. 2nd time i had this problem, first time i had to do a hard reset. thanks for the program!
Just had the same issue with my phone wouldnt delete a phantom message and the program worked great, thanks ARHMogul, appreciate it bruh
Man, I am just having no luck with this - mine is showing "2" unread - I have deleted all msgs - done a reg edit to "0" and I have done the fixunreadcount with a soft reset. What else can I try ??
@jurgy1, I just ran the attached exe and a soft reset but the unread bubble was still there. Ran the exe again and it disappeared.
@ARHMogul, thanks a ton! I'd hate doing a hard reset for such a small problem yet I'm sure I would've done just that if not for your help.
TY! worked for me......... even after doing a soft reset I "thought" it wasn't going to work, but I also had to click on the icon to get the 1 to go away.
fixunreadcount.exe worked like a champ. Ran the program, soft reset, opened the sms inbox and the (1) count was gone. Returned to the TouchFlo home page and touched the SMS bubble and the offending number vanished. Nice. Many thanks.
Just wanted to say thank you. I've search on xda and ppcgeeks for a bit now and didn't find this post until today. Sometimes the wording really matters when finding threads.
This solved my problem and I thank you. Little things like that bug me and I didn't want to have to hard reset the phone.
Thanks again, I'll be saving this little guy.
Verison TP2 and Resetting the SMS Icon to 0 - Forever
Has anyone tried this on Verizon TP2 and if so, does this program work good enough so when you get the next message, it doesn't re-appear. Mine started when I got a two part message from an T-Mobile customer that spread it over two messages. I read the first one, but the second one had already disappeared so it says 1. I reg hacked the counter back to zero, then the next message (even if it is not multimessage) goes back to 1 of course, but does not reset after reading it. It will go up to 2 and 3 and so on but after reading it, it never goes back to 0 without me going to a PMedit and resetting the counter to 0. The question is, does this fix count stop this from happening in the future, or just solve the problem now. If it just solves the problem now, I can PMedit it each time as easily. If it solves the problem forever, I am eternally greatful. Any thoughts? BTW, this only started happening when I got the multi message and it hasn't gone away since.
Thanks.. Rick
Thank you so much. This worked for me. I didn't want to hard reset. Anyone know what causes this?
Just a reminder - after you run the program and perform the reset you have to OPEN THE INBOX for it to "refresh". I was dismayed to notice it was still there after the reset, but after opening the inbox it cleared right out. I noticed this was a problem before on my original tilt, and am glad to finally have a solution!!

YOU ARE DA MAN!!! I called HTC and the lady told me the only way was to do a hard reset. I told her if i was about to do a hard reset because of their crappy software, then I should at least get a new damn phone out of it....
Thank you so much! Great work!
Excellent piece of software
fixunreadcount.exe works exactly as described in this thread. Thanks very much indeed.
fixunreadcount.zip is the best thing I've found!!! I tried to solve it whole weekend on my Touch Pro 2, but only this app works correctly. Editing registry was useless and other tools too. Thanks a lot for that small useful app
Hi everyone!
First post, have tried to find something similar in old threads/search but had no luck.
This evening, whilst composing text messages, my xda orbit became very sluggish and slow and kept freezing, which only a soft rest would solve. After happening 6 or 7 times, the soft reset now goes no further than the green "windows mobile direct push technology" screen (the one which follows the blue o2 screen).
Active sync on the PC does not detect the phone. Have read about bootloader etc but cant seem to get past the coloured screen or get it to sync with the PC and I dont have an SD card reader.
Have tried removing simcard, SD card, leaving off for a while etc. With my contract sim the green light at the top flashes (indicating a signal?) but phoning the phone gets no reply (although it does ring, doesnt go straight to voicemail) but on my PAYG Sim I dont get the flashing light. Every 2 minutes the phone lights up brighter then dims 20 seconds later (which is what my dimmer was set to time-wise when the phone worked). I have never installed any hardware or software on top of the original defaults other than a sandisk 1gb SD card approx 1 year ago.
Now I know and have read than a hard reset may fix this (before anyone suggests it). However, I have some VERY important data on the phone which I have to retrieve (in the form of a few hundred very important text messages containing data, and a huge contact list, the backup of has been lost). The data in these texts and contact list is paramount to me.
So, is there ANY way to get this data from the phone before hard resetting to get the phone to work? To be honest i'm not bothered about the handset/phone itself working I just desperately want the data?
Any help at all would be very much appreciated (and i'm no techie by the way, just a simpleton lol!).
Thanks in advance, happy to set up some sort of Paypal reward scheme for anyone that can sort this as this data is as close to life or death as it gets without it being life or death lol!
PS: For example, is there a way of taking the phones integrated memory card out (with all the contacts and texts intact) and getting the data from it either onto a PC or into another handset?
PPS: Anyone in the South East of England who wants to earn a few quid and can sort this in person feel free to offer!
UPDATE
Well, today I switched it on and it was still the same, and again the same 5 hours later, then suddenly it perked up and everything worked!! I managed to get it to sync, copied the pim file (which I think is the contacts?) onto my PC and then it froze again. Soft reset and now stuck on green screen.
If the magical happens and it flickers into life one final time, where exactly on an orbit are all text messages stored? If I can copy the folder onto the PC, hard reset, then copy it back I should have them all?
There are a few .vol files - PIM.VOL is the contacts/calendar one, and theres another one for messages, but I cannot remember what it is called unfortunately...
OK, thankyou! There's been some more developments!
If I soft rest the phone around 5 times then leave it on the charger (even if it's fully charged) for around 5 hours the phone jumps into life! However, doing things for any length of time freezes the phone.
Added Pimbackup via activesync and it retrieves all the messages fine, but freezes at the point of eginning to add them to the SD card.
Active sync wont let me into most of the folders on the device (such as the windows folder).
So, I can get on the phone eventually but does anyone have ANY ideas as to how I can backup or transfer text messages etc?
TIA
