WM6.1 sending SMS to an email address - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Are there any WM6.1 roms that allow sending SMS to an email address? I know some of the WM6 roms did and some did not. This was a big feature for me any ideas?

Hi,
Call your provider for the number for sms to mail.
solution for T-Mobile Germany:
Send sms on number 8000 with first entry the mail adress.
Code:
example SMS to 8000:
[email protected] hello, this is sms to mail.
wfg
starbase64

Part of the problem is that I have never had to do that before with ATT. With many other ROMs and with regular cell phones on the ATT network you can simply type in the email address and send the message. If this is a limitation of using WM 6.1 it would probably make me go back to a WM 6 ROM that allows it.

With many other ROMs? custom ROMs?
because I always thought SMS-2-Email was carrier setting dependent.

I was able to do it with the ATT ROM that came with the phone originally and then I was only able to do it on certain custom ROMs

It is definitely rom based because it wouldn't work with schaps roms but works fine with K's roms & vp3g's.

I was testing ShaDoW's 6.1 CE rom and I loved his work on that rom - it was awesome! Fast and very stable, ... but I had problems with the MMS on it. So much so, that I just recently switched back to VPG's 3.62.3 rom. It's a little slower, but it has full MMS functionality.
I really liked 6.1 better. I hope someone fixes the MMS problems with it. As I understand it, its not just ShaDow's rom that is having problems, but it's something with most - or all - of the 6.1's.
I'm hoping VPG comes out with his version of the 6.1 rom!

Got it!!

Which is the best cooked WM6 version for an Orange SPV M3100

I have looked at the wiki for cooked WM6 ROMs, however I am confused as to which one is best for an Orange SPV M3100?
Do all of these work on the M3100 as some say XDA?
It seems that the vanilla one has a few problems with missing icons, sd card dropping, remote desktop missing, no video calling etc.. Are there specific patches for these problems or do you have to put a different ROM on there?
Thanks
Mark
I'm running WM6 for Hermes LVSW Edition (2007-03-15) (WM6 Pro Style) on my M3100, and it runs really nicely. You can enable the video call skin easily on it. Only thing that doesn't work properly (and is the same on ALL WM6 roms so far) are voicemail notifications - they come through as test messages. Not a big problem though.
I use the same version as above. The black edition does seem a bit faster but it seems to have problems with the latest version of spb weather. LVSW has no problems with this so i would say its the most stable which is a shame, Black Edition just looks so dam sexy. Voicemail notifications are not a problem for me because I use my device on 3 UK who sent a text for voicemails anyway.
Just remember if you decide to take the plunge to WM6:
Goodlink will only work on WMXL v.20/.21
You must have Activesync 4.5 installed to sync your device
Push email will only work with Exchange 2007
S.K.

I beg to differ on the exchange 2007 bit, my push email is working fine and we use Exchange 2003 SP2 at my work.
I'm running the WMXL on an Orange SPV M3100 and it runs fine! The push mail is working with an Exchange 2003 SP2 server, and it works except for the HTML. If you want HTML and push mail with Exchange, you need Exchange 2007.
Is it possible to apply all changes/differences to the Vanilla version that exist in the LVSW version or do you have to blast the phone away and start again?
Thanks
Black Edition has problems while putting device on sleep
call accept and call disconnect many times keep lit
also I had alarm fire up failure
It's trully a FAST release but I think It eats up battery much more faster
WMXL if the stablest I've used till now
with no major problems ...
PLEASE to all Cookers
REMOVE the nifty Registry editor
The Included Task manager already has THE BEST Registry manager I've ever seen that has the ability to search, Import and export.
It's trully amazing software!
also Please do your best to If possible to optimize ROM
so as at end of customization the free RAM count to be around 29~30MB...
I would go with Black Edition..Very Quick.
Orange SPV M3100 and LVSW WM6 Pro even for me.....really stable and clean rom!....give it a try ;-)
I am currently running the WM6 Black Edition and so far I like this WM6 ROM the most. It really works quickly and is stable for me...this is the most important feature!
My only issues with it are that Spb Pocket Plus cannot be installed and that sometimes TomTom 6 does not see the maps on the storage card. The TomTom issue can be solved by simply removing and inserting the memory card. The Pocket Plus issue is going to continue for a while. However, there is not much you could miss from that with WM6 and all that is included.
The LVSW version from 3/13 was excellent as well. It did not have any of the problems I mentioned and was almost as quick. It uses the old WM5 dialer in the phone though. Both perform the same function but in the Black Edition it just looks better.
So far I am not sure which is BEST, but the LVSW version never gave me a problem. The Black Edition has shown to little issues, as I mentioned, but it is quicker and looks much better.
I don't know why someone said that Voicemail notifications arrive as text messages. On my phone, with all of the ROMs I have used, they arrive as normal with the VoiceMail icon in the top bar.

Best rom for T-Mobile Compact III

Ive seen a lot of new roms, some based on official and some built up themselves.
First, whats the latest on an official WM6 ROM from T-Mob UK?
Second, whats the best rom for a UK Compact III? How does it handle the lack of Wifi. Im mainly intrested to hear from those Compact III users who have switched and if they have noticed any problems or missing features.
Third and finally, is there a download for the original rom? Or can I flash it to the T-mob WM6 rom (if one comes out) if ive flashed to a 3rd party rom?
I had problems with some WM5 roms on my prophet in that the sound was too low or it contained crap. Sometimes things didnt work like when you clicked on a text entry box the keyboard didnt appear.
Thanks

WM6 works really good on my MDA from t mobile.
I'm actually using Bepe WWE rom flashed with USPL, I have already flashed two devices without any problems (exept problems with doing it on vista but it was also solved).
Generally wm6 works faster and is more stable then wm5 but nothing is perfect, i've notticed that some programs have problems to run properly.
Spb Gprs monitor doesn't work at all and spb backup has problems with reading files from windows directory.
wm6 is far better then wm5 and i can recomend it to anyone even if you must used to some issues.
there is no official wm6 rom from t-mobile uk and probably there will not be one, but if i am wrong you can obviously flash your device with it.
mda mms settings

Softbank MMSLite + WM6.1 = sadness FIXED

THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED BY MMSLITE BUILD303
SEE POST 135: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2390456&postcount=135
Problem:
MMSLite does not work on the new WM6.1 ROMs
It installs with no problem, but then in the Messaging screen there is no MMS account.
Looking at the RASBook in the registry, it seems that the hidden connection necessary is being created. Also other registry entries connected to MMSLite seem to be okay.
History:
MMSLite is a program used to access (Japanese provider) Softbank's special push mail system.
Previous versions of MMSLite have automatically created a MMS account and the connection necessary to access this account.
This same problem happened with some WM6 ROMs that had the dual SMS/MMS account cooked-in.
Questions:
Does anyone know how to fix this? (Wouldn't that be nice.)
Who is the creator of MMSLite and how can I contact him/her?
How has the structure of the Messaging application changed in 6.1?
Have other MMS-related applications been affected by changes in 6.1?
The file "cemail.vol" can't be modified may cause MMSLite don't working.
And it cause spb backup fails to restore the messages.
It happens on some of the WM6.1 Roms, but the first one (WM6.1 from the Vietnamese BBS).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=362846
I have tried many method to delete the file but failed.
Need the answers too.
Anybody tested the "Softbank Mail" app on WM6.1?

I gave up on that Softbank Mail app. It was slow and cumbersome. Personally, I would rather not be able to access MMS than use that software.

Agree. Using Softbank Mail is really a pain.
Seems the app "DRAW" everything on the screen instead of using controls.
Maybe that's the reason why it's soooooooooooooo slow.
However, I will give it a try on this weekend.
Good News
I just tried Pays WWE215 Full(+ Askal e-chinaV62 No.5 + Ask IME_31J), MMLite is works fine.
I think softbank mail should work on this rom too.
Sorry I am wrong. This rom uses Big Storage ROM v3.62.
Will try another soon.

Totally agree a soft like (MMLite + EMOJI) would be wonderfull.

Mate, just a note to say it works fine on CRC PHK, the latest version. Like you I had problems on earlier 6.1 roms. The interface is slightly different, but all works. Oh, and MMS/SMS are separate too!

BOMB! So anything based on the PDAViet ROM is cool it seems. I tried Pandora's version 13.5 and have MMSLite running.
Edit: NO BOMB! Spoke too soon.
So roms in this forum used another base rom.
Just tested Pays ROM Full - WM6.1 WWE with Big Storage RC2. MMLite don't work. Softbank mail works fine.

Thnaks alot for the info.
Tried the emoji thing, works great for me.
And tried Pandora Kitchen too.
MMLite works, but the file cemail is still locked by some process.
Can't restore from previous backup by SPB Backup,
I do have the memory that saw my restored messages get threaded by the new WM6.1 messeging app. Must be the original VietBBSRom.
So, some ROMS work, some dont.
is there a list of working ROMS?
and how to figure out what version on WM6.1 was used to cook a rom, to make sure it will work with MMSlite?
Tried another
Tried Hermes_ShadoW_2.0_CE(Build 19521.1.1.0) from Cloudyfa, MMLite dosen't work.
But Spb backup does work.
Waiting for a rom to let those two thing both work.
has anyone tested the new Pay's ROM Light\Full version from Feb 11th?
does it work with MMSlite?
It works! had no problems with it so far. 24 hours. Although, his rom seems to be slightly unstable. I have been getitng lots of random hangs with it. Might be due to MMSlite. But atleast it doesn't disappear from the mail selection menu!
Edit: it doesn't work. 24 hours was the limit. Same old problems. See my post 23 below.

I have observed the same with Pandora Naked 9b1 and have lost emails this way. Not every time, but sometimes when I sent a test mail when MMS had disappeared from the selection screen it never arrived. So be warned, you may miss emails.

Auto completion in WM6.1?

Hi,
I have a T-Mo Dash that I flashed to the Kavana 080408 ROM and everything is working great. However I noticed that when creating or replying to an email if I start typing someone's email address that exists in my contacts it does not bring up the list of possible email addresses. In other words if I type a L, all the email addresses I have that begin with L will list, and as you type more of the email address in the list will be narrowed down. I believe this is referred to as auto completion? I also have a Cingular 3125 that I upgreaded to WM6.1 (erofich) and this phone will do this. Is this feature possible on the Dash?
Thanks,
Steve
The Dash never had this, even with WM5 as far as I know. But it's worth a look into. Do you happen to have a 3125 ROM layin' around somewhere ?
Which ROM for the 3125 do you mean?

Isn't this an official feature of 6.1 standard? maybe it hasn't found its way into this rom yet.
check this out for more info:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/6-1/version-comparison.aspx
Thanks uccellino,
It does look to be a standard feature of 6.1. This is one feature I am really looking forward to and was surprised when it did not work using Kavana's ROM on my Dash. Hopefully there will be a new updated ROM that has this soon. This feature is working great on my 3125 and very nice to have.
Thanks,

SMS messages - chat loooks like

In previsious ROM all was very nice oredered, like a conversation between 2 people in chat, messenger or icq.... i upgrade today to another ROM and i forgot to check what was the name of this "sms interfae/program"
can anyone helop me with it? i want the "chat" look back
Windows Mobile 6.1 has the "threaded" chat style sms your looking for. WM 6.0 does not have it. What rom are you running? I think it can be enabled/disabled in 6.1 also but I have not tried.
If you want to add it via another program search for threaded sms. I just use the one built into wm6.1, and I haven't tried any of the others like the palm threaded.
