3 windows 6.1 problems - HTC Excalibur

I like the 6.1 upgrade but I continue to have problems.
1. I cant text anyone. I get "The following errors occurred while sending and receiving messages: Your text message cannot be sent"
2. I cannot connect to Oz/Yahoo messenger anymore. Even re-installed and still wont connect
3. When I type via Opera Mini or Yahoo messenger (when it was working), I used to get an auto text feature that remembered everything I ever wrote so I didnt have to finish typing. Thats gone too
Im considering re-installing 6.1 to get those features back. They all used to work but have suddenly stopped

same here, i no longer have aim / oz messenger which i loved! i figured out the keymap issue with the @ symbol.
as far as oz messenger goes im getting a text msg while trying to sign on which says successful, but it ends up saying communication error. when i had wm6 i never got that text message, even if i didnt connect, why?? anyone get this working or figured out yet?

check out parlingo.com it blows away that oz crap !!

Yes but does parlingo.com use the SMS service not the internet for texting?

i just downloaded, it doesnt seem to. But its awesomeeee!

Oh yah it doesnt use the SMS service, you need internet for this which sucks...

WLM sign in problem

I have recently upgraded to WM6 but now when i sign in to Windows Live Messenger it never shows online contacts and does nt show me as online to others even though i can recieve messages as i have got a friend to try it, the message came through.
has anyone else experienced this and if so, have you found a solution?

SMS app eats some texts

Does anyone else get this?
Sometimes, when I compose a text and press Send in the default TouchFlo app, nothing happens.
Other times, it turns out it has sent, but the message doesn't show in my Sent Items, nor does it appear on the TouchFlo app's thread.
Sometimes it works fine, the message appears in Sent and I've got a proper threaded view of the conversation.
Is there any fix to make it more consistent, or failing that, can I remove it and go back to the default WM 6.1 threaded SMS view?
sometimes when i send a message through touchflo i think it gone then i go into the windows messaging part and i get the message tellimg it couldnt be send
Yeah, I get that too. But if you forward it to the same number, it goes fine. Very weird.
I'm hoping this new ROM fixes it, but can't test it yet.
Nice to know it's not just me, anyway.

Windows Mobile 6.1 and OZ Messenger

Noticed the OZ Messenger was go so I downloaded it and it works, problem is that it doesn't connect and gives me the connection error and to check my settings. I can send and receive SMS and MMS texts.
I went through this last time I went from WM5 to WM6 but can figure out how I got it going and not sure if it even works with WM6.1
I do have Unlimited text plan just in case it gets brought up.
I do have to say that it works perfectly for me(WM6.1)...
I haven't found any issues yet..
Oh yeah. the OZ version is 4.1.3
I did the T-Mo MMS GPRS setting as been described but not sure if I am missing anything else?
SMS service? GSm, GPRS or preffered on both?
any input?

[REQ] SMS Auto-retry (low signal/no signal)

The way Windows Mobile handles sending SMS when in low or no signal areas is very annoying. If it fails to send the message it stores it in the drafts with a link to try resending it in the conversation view. You can tap the retry link but if it fails again it will store it in drafts AGAIN and now you have multiple retry links. When it succeedes it doesn't even remove the failed ones.
If someone could change it so that it will keep auto-retrying and wait until signal is back to send it, it would be great.
If that is too hard, is it possible to make it just show only 1 retry link in the conversation view and then auto-remove it once it successfully sends? I hate having to go to drafts and delete multiple messages.
Dear petard,
it seems as if nobody is intersted in developping such an useful hack in order to remove one of the most annyoing bug our PDA are provided with.
I'd like my PDA to look like a Nokia phone sometimes, even though I wouldn't need to..... but I wonder why such an advanced device as a PDA phone can't have a similar feature. It's really weird, I didn't expect Microsoft not to solve the problem
Agreed, this is highly annoying...
Worse yet is that if an SMS fails to be sent from HTC's TF3D SMS app, it actually appears in the stock WM SMS app's conversation view without a resend link, so you don't even know that it hasn't actually been sent.
this is so annoying and has drove me crazy since i got my phone back in april. i dont understand why all my older cell phones did this but my SMARTphone does not. i am constantly needingt this feature
Not sure what phone you are using, however with my HD2 if you use custom message client made by Death Angle then he has a built in auto retry sending message. It is quite a nice message client.

SMS delay/not retrieving :(

Hey guys,
Picked up a desire yesterday and its great, though I'm having some issues with sms. I notice I don't receive any texts until I send a text first, then I'll receive 2 or 3 texts, timestamped in the past, up to an hour ago!
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.
edit: unrooted on o2
i get a similar problem, i know i should have received a text message but it doeant show up for hours.
unrooted on tmobile uk
Most likely when your phone is connected over GPRS the text don't come through till you disconnect, used to happen on my N95.
So if my phone is operating in GPRS mode, until it decides it doesn't need the internet anymore and disconnects, it won't retrieve texts... right. So any workarounds or fixes for this?
Prety much, after I use GPRS I just made a call and during or after the call my text came in.
Been getting this all day, are people really just dealing with this or is it only a few people that have this issue?
I am having another problem... on T-mobile, my phone won't download MMS messages. It will just say Download error, General Network Failure... After it expired (3days) , I was sent a link to the T-mobile website, where I am able to see it for 14 days.
Another problem that I am having, the phone is struggling sending long text messages... 4 or 5 normal lenght messages 500-600 characters... I am using the Text App provided with the phone.
I have a problem that I dont think is an actual problem I think its just how the phone works, and tbh its a bit rubbish.
If you dont have signal when you hit send (im my office at work I only get signal on a little square of the desk) the phone says "message not sent". Sometime when it gets signal it will send the message, but if it doesnt get signal quick enough it seems to just give up sending.... a bit lame really....
I'm going to post a message up with the T-mobile UK MMS settings so people in future can find it on search. Have a look in 5 mins.
JAmes.
I've got the same issue with my HTC Desire.
My operator is a Belgium one, namely Mobistar.
I've got the impression that when i open the sms box, i start seeing the messages. Don't know if it's the communication that goes wrong, or the 'throughput' in the phone (screen, alerting...).
After installing (and using of course) chompSMS, this problem is gone... yipppie...
