Hello everybody,
I am very happy to tell you my discovery for the W800:
The fix to have the prompt for incoming sms is just to remove the pin password (the sim password) and after a hard reset,you wont have any problem anylonger! (there is still the bug after the soft reset so you have to remove the battery to have the Gprs signal).
Leave comment please for my solution.
Regards
I Precise how to do that
Go in the Setting, and in Personnal setting,go on Phone setting.
At the security option,remove the Cross to "Pin password is required to use the phone" and then,do a reset (remove the battery, not a soft reset in windows cause after,the sim card wont be recognised).
Now the sms should work ^^
Regards
Thanks
Thanks you, now my w800 works fine.

Still having problems with SMS
I have icool 800 with windows mobile 6.1 and when i try to remove the pin password and hardreset it always bounces back on. It only works if i change the band from 900/1800 to 850/1900, but then it only receives some of the messages, not all of them, and 850/1900 isnt working correctly in where i live. Does anyone know any solution to this problem?

Hi,
I just upgraded the official rom WM6 released by Dopod,
I have some problem with Text SMS function
1. Previously with WM5 in SMS screen -> TO:, at this areas is you type some alphabet is will show the contact that simply match the character.
I.e. Type "A", andy, anna etc... However, this not happen in WM6 -_-"
How can i get this fuction back
2. Everytime i press send button on, is will pop up the error msg:
"cannot recognize one or more recipients or the address is not valid. would you like to send the message anyway?" (Yes/No)
If press yes the sms is sent..
This is very annoying.. -_-"
Thanks in advance.. Any body knows how to slove this issues, please help..
Solution
Any body knows the solution?
Thanks
i've been getting the same thing too but for the wizard. let me know if you have a solution.
I've got the same problem, but after a soft reset it is resolved and the orginal funcionality is back.
Let's see the problem will return or not...
Anyone have an suggestions for getting the Caller Id for Contacts Only option to work?
I'm using att&t on my 8525 and their support group is sending a new phone because they say it should work but they don't have a clue.
You set it by going to Settings > Phone > Services > Caller Id then retrieve the network settings. They are Everyone, No One or Contacts Only. Everyone and No One works but Contacts Only is same as no one.
The tech's phone he said it worked. Mine no way.
The option is there and should work with WM6 3.61.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, I have searched to no avail.
Thanks

Just a thought, but are your contacts only on sim? It may be that that feature only works for contacts stored in the phone memory. I haven't checked this feature myself, but thought I'd give a suggestion to try to troubleshoot.
My contacts are in memory...
at&t sent me a replacement phone with WM5 on it and it works on that phone. I'm not sure when in the WM6 life cycle it stopped working. I'm goint to load the plain official version of WM6 and see if it works. I also might post to vp3G's tread and see what he knows. How that we know it is not a network or hardware issure maybe someone can help me track it down.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
i have mine stored on phone and using vp3 3.61 and it shows only to my contacts
Hmm, Guess it is time to upgrade the new phone to WM6.
I'm using vp3G's WM6 v3.61 and when I enable "Contacts only" it has the same effect as if it set to "No One"...
After a year is there a fix for this?
Thank you.
Hi all, I am not familiar to forums and I ask for help because searches are fruitless.
The story is: I cannot send/receive SMS. It appear to be set correctly with telephone provider but when I open send message it takes me to Messaging which appears to be MMS (see accounts, tools configuration). Anyway I click send then it tries to establish a GPRS connection which fail because my modem is not set up? I do not have and do not want IP provider contract. I rely on wifi as much as possible but not everywhere.
The problem is: I would like to send and receive phone message only every so often.
The question is: is it possible? Is there any difference that I do not understand? Did I loose some software features?
The features are: MDA III originally from Germany, now upgraded to English with ROM 1.42.00 WWE from 09/05/05, Radio ver 1.13.00, Protocol 1337.42, ExtROM 1.42.119 WWE
I would appreciate your help because I am really embarrassed, in the lost...
Thanks
It shouldn't redirect you to MMS messaging, as this has nothing to do with SMSes.
1. Try to open messaging, select Menu->Go To->Text messages (or similar, this is from messaging on WM5). If you now press New, it should start writing normal SMS.
2. If this won;t help, you must have installed something, that took over SMS messaging and now lead to this problem. I propose backup&Hard reset and try again.
All the configuration you need is stored on you SIM card and you don't need to configure anything - in all WM5 roms SMS works always out of the box.
Report effects.
i just recieved my X1 today ^^

Does your phone plan allow you to send SMS?
no i can't send sms. same error message :s
ok now i've search through the properties i found the thing that makes the sms sending to fail.
start menu
-> properties : connexions table
-> advanced network : sms service table
-> sms on field
-> select prefered GSM
and now i can send sms.
before i select "prefered GSM", "GPRS" was selected
so this thread can be marque as resolved
thx for paying attention to my problem.
P.S: not quite intuitive... :s

same problem here i am a contractor and get most jobs via txt need help asap where are our senior members
Hmm... I'm not sure. I've not encountered this before. Which ROM and lockscreens are you using?
HTC Tilt2 (AT&T) Official ROM Update newest from htc site
To display the preview you have to do two things:
1. Wake Up on new SMS
Use a registry editor and change "HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIN\RIL" "DisableSMSWakeUpEvent" from "1" to "0"
2. Go to Start Menu > Settings > Personal > Sounds and then go over to the Notifications tab. Chose "Messaging: New text message" from the drop down menu. Then check the boxes that say "Play sound" and "Display message on Screen."
That should do it.
thanks soft reseting now
no go on the fix the screen lights up but no notifacation until the phone is unlocked
If you're using the stock or HTC lockscreen, then that's how it's supposed to be. If you want the message to pop up on the display à la iOS, then try a different lock screen like S2U2. There is a setting in there to make the message display on the lockscreen and either view (reply) or dismiss it.
still didnt do the trick phone has to be unlocked to get mms sms notify
about to give up and hard reset out the window

Right, that's how the stock lock screens are designed. That's why I suggested to install S2U2. It does what you're asking for.
i have had this phone for over a year it always notified me when a new sms came through whenn the phone was looked did i mention it notifies me off email but not sms
Hey,
Ye those things dont work.
I did a hard reset, and now it works propperly again, and my phone is way faster.
To bad this was my sollution.

Well, if nlueray112 got it working after a hard reset, then my guess is that something you've installed or tweaked has disabled or broken the feature. If you aren't comfortable doing a hard reset, then simply try S2U2 as I suggested. It does what you are looking for within the app, without calling WM for a pass off.
