XDAIIs - SMS draft missing - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Whenever I compose and not able to send the SMS and click the OK button it disapear, in normal condition it shoul be saved in the Draft folder.
Although it is visible in the counter when I open the draf folder there is nothing in it.
I already perform a soft reset and try to boot in safe mode to check if there is a conflict with the application installed at my phone but nothing works.
I have tried to explore the folder windows/messaging to check if the Draft SMS is physically saved in the device and I think it is there (by checking the date and time of the file is created).
I need some advise on how can I solve this problem withou performing a hard reset, because rigth now I'm just manually deleting files at windows/messaging to save storage space.
I know harset will definetlt solve this but I dont want to perform a hard reset since I dont have a PC to configure my XDA back ang installed my favorite applications

You might need to hard reset...to solve this problem...

Avoiding Hard reset
I know Hard reset will definetly resolve my problem but will introduce more because I dont have a PC to doit as for now. I'm just currently renting one a internet cafe

wow is going to be dificult if you don't have computer..

Withou a Computer
Yah, I know it is difficult, although rigth now my hand are itchi to hard reset my phone I'm trying hard not to because I will not be able to use my favorite apps ang games. If I just have an admin priveledge with this PC that I am using I will not have any second thought to performe a hard reset.
That is why I posted my problem here, for my hope there there is somebody that could help me.
In addition I have Resco explorer install witha registry editor plugin, so incase i need to check or edit any file or registry I can.

You can try backup with Sprite Backup or Spb Backup. Hard Reset then restore everything except e-mail/messaging.

Can you stop PPC from listing recent programs on start menu?

Any ideas? Reg Hack?
I already have a program to manually do it, but you have do a soft reset afterwards. I would prefer not to have them all together.
Thanks!
The list is stored at
HKCU\Software\Microsft\Shell\TaskSwitch
You can manually delete them from here, but soft reset required.
DOn't know how to turn it off though.
Thanks. I am currently playing around with the current PDA2K rom, so I'll delete the key itself and see if it throws any errors. If it blows up, I'll just do a hard reset.
Thanks again!
just curious
so did u have to hard reset , or just deleting the reg key worked
The damm thing is self reparing. If you delete the contents and then launch a program, it fixes itself. Same thing if you delete the key itself...if you open up a new porgram, it recreates the key and all of the contents.
Need to find out what does it and figure out how to stop. You would think that having this option to turn off recent docs has been in Windows for so long that you could have the right to say no on the PPC.

Imate JAM- upgrade- pointer stuck after restoring.

I've got an Imate JAM,
which is the samller version of the pda2k with 128mb of memory,
i had some software problems and the local supplier said its a known problem in this software verson. so they took it to upgrade it.
after upgrading, the telephone worked, however,(here is the problem)
i tried to restore my old data: contacts, emails, txt msgs, ...etc.
after restoring the pointer (touch screen) didnt work! i tried every thing that came into my mind ... restarting, soft reset , ... and nothing worked.
the only solotion was to do a hard reset. the device worked perfectly after doing the hard reset but i dont have my data !
i took it back to the agent who simply said: we're sorry you are not the first one... but you cannot restore your old data after upgrading!!! :evil: !!
- a friend advised to post the issue into this website (CUZ THEY'RE REALLY GOOD) :wink: he said!.. i really wish i could find a solution to my problem.. i need to restor my old data .
thanx.
best regards,
Bisho :roll:
I have exactly same problem!
I think the problem lies here:
You can only make FULL backups and that SUCKS, it backups WAY to much.. also a lot of windows dll's and putting those back ****s it all up I think..
We need a soft that can modify the backup.stg to extract the contacts/sms etc seperatly from the backup file and then import it to phone.. or maybe easier to import to outlook and then synchronize your phone..
For everybody who want to upgrade; synchronize your agenda + contacts with outlook.. then you have a good and valid backup!!
If you can import your contacts, then your screen won't react (only if you press REALLY hard) but you can synchronize and then do hard reset, and then after that synchronize again...
In my case I could not even get my contacts back.. it gave an error overwriting files :S

Question about "Permanent Save" feature

Hi there,
Could anyone assist? I am trying to make a cab of personal settings to reset my registry settings to after a hard reset, but am having trouble with Permanent Save. I have contacts, appointments and tasks stored in the permanent area, and after I do a hard reset I can go into Permanent Save on the control panel, tick the boxes and all my contacts reappear and all is well.
However, if I take a snapshot of the registry before activating the tickboxes, and then afterwards and apply the differences, it overrights the existing data with nothing. The keys I have tried are
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\AdvancedCPL]
"CalendarPassCheck"=dword:00000001
"ContctPassCheck"=dword:00000001
"EnabledStateCalendar"=dword:00000001
"EnabledStateContact"=dword:00000001
"EnabledStateTask"=dword:00000001
"TASKPassCheck"=dword:00000001
It does work in ticking the boxes, but not in doing a restore - well only a restore to no data. Do I have to make some changes to any files as well?
Thanks!
Q.
Hello Q I'm in exactly the same boat, if you look at the \storage\persavebackup folder from you PC you'll see a bunch of files the saved info will look like TaskRecord.txt etc and yup they get overwriten with files of 0 value when I run my script and do a soft reset or add in new values.
I've tried copying files back into the persavebackup folder to see if they are then picked up but no joy - its very odd must be missing something.
I thought the entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Pim\schedID might be something to do with it as an entry is put in here when there is data saved with perm save but didnt seem to make any difference when I changed this.
if I get anywhere I'll post back.
Why would you want to use the permanent save anyway?
I mean, hey, xBackUp is there, innit?

Messaging program stopped working on WM5

I can not open the messaging program in windows directly or by using the button. Windows does nothing whenever I try. I communicate alot with text messages and email so this is a big problem for me. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Have you recently done a backup with SPB etc. I did this recently and lost all access to my PIMs Had to delete my pim.vol. Bad news.
V
No I haven't done any backups lately and I don't know what a PIM is. Do i have to re-instsall windows and where can I get a copy of the os? THanks/
-Ross
GaR. PIM is personal information manager (I think!). If it really is screwed, sync your phone to your computer, backup anything necessary, and hard reset.
hard reset - this will reset everything to factory installation settings, hopefully correcting all problems but wiping everything. So backup anything important. Then run an app that should be on your phone, called ClearStorage. This will wipe it out.
There is another method using hardware keys, but I don't know what phone model you have.

Kaiser doesnt start , dont want to hard reset it :(

I have rebooted my Kaiser this morning and it took a while, and than came a message that it cant boot...
The Software i installed before the last reboot was s2p and before that i installed and deinstalled vito sms chat...
Is there a way to fix it without the need of hard reset or can i download files via the bootloader?
thanx SciLor
there may be, but if you're still waiting, it would be quicker to hard reset.
try to get used to it if you haven't already. It only takes me a few minutes now to setup after a hard reset, I keep as much as possible on a memory card, never sync with my PC, use mortscript to auto setup my programs and settings, and keep a copy of all folders on the memory card to copy accross.
I hard reseted it and used the last backup had (18March) ^^
i copy nearly everthing on my card but after the backuo WM5torage doesnt work.... even after reinstalling if i connect it it show the volume but when i click on it it says there is nothing
