Re: Unlocked Xda2i on Vodafone, problems with Text messages..
Hi All - I wonder if anybody can help please? I have a very strange
problem with my O2 XDA2i, which is unlocked & being used on UK Vodafone.
I flipped back to using it again earlier today [from my trusty PL720],
& noticed that I hadn't received my usual overnight texts/ SMS. On
looking further, I couldn't send any texts either..
I can still however, make & receive calls.
Selecting O2 Active|Messaging|Texts displays 'Inbox' but offers only
2 options - MMS, & Outlook email. No 'Text messages'.
On trying a hard reset, & trying the above again, I see 3 items available
in Inbox, & can send/receive texts.
I am currently working through my backups to see how long I've had this
problem [I don't always use the device with the SIM in].
Anyone, any advice!?
Thanks!
Hey all,
I recently upgraded my Kaiser from WM6 to 6.1 using the official upgrade tool Vodafone UK supplied me, and all went without a hitch, so much so that I think I'm gonna try out Hyperdragon III while I'm on the "doing funky things to my phone" bandwagon. I have noticed one problem though, and I figure it'll probably be a problem when I reflash too so I'm trying to solve it now.
When I imported all my contacts and SMS messages (which I backed up using sprite), I though it was all fine. I opened my SMS inbox and watched as it built the threaded list, etc, and everything was good until I received a new message. The sender was in my contacts list, and had previous messages in the threaded view, and as intended, the new message added to their "thread". But as soon as it did, the thread had their number instead of the contact name as the title.
I did some experimenting, and this happens everytime I get a message from someone who previously had a named entry in the inbox, but if I get a message from a newly created contact, it works fine.
If I go into a thread from someone who hasn't sent me a post-upgrade sms yet, their name is displayed properly, but when I click on it (which should bring up a screen displaying their details), I get a message saying the number isn't in my contacts and would I like to add it.
Sorry if this has been answered before, I had a look and couldn't see anything.
Any ideas?
same problem too
Hi!
Are there any software for windows mobile 6 to show date and time when the text message was originally sent?
Example:
Somebody sents me a text message at night time when my mobile is off. At the morning I open the mobile (turn GSM radio on) and then I will receive the text message. If that message was send in same day, then I will see also the exact time when the message was sent. But if the message was send previous day, then I only see the send date (no exact time). So is there any sms software that would show time and date always?
Or are there some registry settings to be tweaked?
Also is there any software to record (and show) the time when the message was actually received?
My mobile is HTC TyTn (Windows mobile 6 professional, ROM version 3.54.255.4).
Or registry setting?
I would also like to see the time as well as the date I sent or received sms.
At present only the last 24 hours messages reflect the actual time of the sms and beyond that only the date shows.
I've tried the solution in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2627480 (message #6) (even though it's for the Kaiser) and it didn't work on my Hermes, which was to be expected.
Does anyone know of a similar registry fix for the Hermes?
Hi there, anybody got any idea how to able the date and time of each sms conversation. current wm sms thread does not show date and time for days old messages.
Hi
I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread to report bugs in the TP 2 official ROM so that we may collectively be able to find solutions, and if not, at least bring to attention of HTC to fix in newer builds of their ROMs.
So I request you all to put down bugs you have discovered as also fixes in this thread. I will try my best to collate all into the first post....
Here are the ones I have discovered so far:
ALARM BUG
I set the alarm one day and turned it off the next. But it continues to ring every day at the same time even though the alarm settings show it as off.
EXCESS RAM USAGE
With TF3d 2, messaging, notes and contacts running, the TP 2 shows RAM usage at 81%. Wonder whats taking up so much memory.
DIALER BUG
At times when I am calling, the call status screen does not appear and it continues to show the dialer screen even after the call button has been pressed for a contact.
I am having an issue with downloading emails on my TP2.
Using exactly the same settings as I had on my kaiser (which still works), when I try to send and receive I get "Error synchronising" Cannot connect with current connection settings.
I have ensured my email account is set up identically, and the connection settings to T-Mobile are identical. Anyone else had this issue?
Bluetooth:
When using bluetooth (activesync and headset profile) the pda crashes sometimes. If the screen is on it won't shut down and no interaction with the phone is possible. When it's off it stays off. Funny thing is that the pda keeps working. Phone is runnig when I am called etc.

To answer my own question, this :-
[email protected]; said:
its something to do with their web proxy and only happens when you are connected to certain "bits" of tmobile.
To fix it, go to settings->all settings ->connections->connections->setup my proxy server-> and UNCHECK this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet.

i have a problem with the alert tones. my tp2 either don't play or plays very softly the first second of any alert, reminder, or ringtones. anyone with the same problem?
I'm finding that when I send texts 1 out of every 3 doesn't get sent.
I get an 'Text cannot be sent' message. It's not my Sim card cause it was fine when I had it in the X1.

So does mine, so perhaps it's a touch flow bug rather than a phone fault.
these have nothing to do with htc touch pro2 itself dude!
it's about the rom you installed in it,so pls return to your technician to get a good rom!
it's like you have super good pc,but the windows xp you installed is crap,then your pc will always get this problem and that......
FYI: rom means: OS(wm 6.5 for example)+Radio(GSM etc)+Extrom(touchflo 3d etc)
SMS Status Report Bug
Hi,
I have a German (O2) htc touch pro 2 with the current original O2 ROM (WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.21048 (Build 21048.1.6.3), ROM: 1.19.207.1 (51489) GER)
My problem is that the phone will not receive or display the SMS status report sent by the provider when the recipient receives the sms.
When writing an SMS, I ensure that under message Options, there is a tick next to: "Request message delivery notification".
I wrote an SMS message to my own number on the TP2 and sent it off. The message promptly arrives, yet no status report from the provider arrives. I have tried this several times to various numbers.
The same SIM card in my XDA Orbit always displays a delivery notification from O2 when the recipient receives an sms. It is not a network problem.
As I have a multicard (more than one SIM card on the same number), I have been able to narrow down the problem as follows.
Messages sent from the phone do generate a status report. I set SMS delivery to my Orbit, and then sent an sms to my own number from the TP2. Both the message and the delivery report arrived on the Orbit.
When I set the network to send SMS messages to my TP2, and then send a message from my orbit, the message itself was delivered to the TP2, but not the status report!
This establishes that the German O2 network is OK, the TP2 can correctly send an SMS and request a Status report from the network. It can also receive normal SMS messages, but not the status report. No sign of it receiving anything, appears to ignore such status reports entirely.
Does anyone have a fix for this, short of flashing a different ROM on it.
I know that a new official WM 6.5 ROM is due to be released for the TP2 (but not so far). I am hoping someone here was a quick fix (missing registry entry, etc.) which can be applied to the current system as I write a lot of text messages and it is useful to know when they have arrived.

request delivery notification
i upgraded to the original WM6.5.. when replying to a text message through the new TouchFlo's threaded message look (not the one you get when going in from 'all messages' but the one you get when "clicking" on the message itfelf from the messages tab.), you can go to [Menu] - [Message Option] and there you have the option [reuest delivery notification].
i tick that and say done, send the message and i DO get the delivery notification. however when going back to this same message screen to reply to another message, that option will be unticked again.. i have to tick that option for EVERY single message that i reply to.. as i said sending a message from anywhere else has its own option and is saved correctly and always works..
i googled as much as i could but couldnt find anyone with the same problem :/
