Bug with unread messages? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I am experiencing that TouchFlo is showing the (SMS) inbox-tab with a green '1', to show that there is one new message.
However, I have read all of them. I think this is a bug. Same thing happens with email. Does anyone else experience this as well?
It's the Dutch version (0413?) by the way.

Yes, I also have this issue. If I recieve say 3 text messages from one person and then read that particular thread, it will only mark the most recent one as read. I have to click the other messages individually to "read" them. It's quite frustrating!

Okay, I'm already happy that I'm not the only one now let's hope HTC also notices this and creates an update which fixes it.

Same here! Also with SPB mobile shell 3.01 installed... no updates. Deleting the reg-key HKCU\System\State\Messages did solve my problem temporarely (key is made up again after reboot) but this is a BUG!
Personally I think it is not the "right" metohd used by HTC to update the counters in that registry key...

WM6 - GMail: cannot send replied email - was fine in WM5

Hi all,
I have LVSW WM6 and I can create NEW email and send it using Pocket Outlook. However, if I want to send an email via "reply", I kept on getting a message that says:
The message could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage and that you account information is correct. Then try sending again.
I have good 3G coverage and can browse the Internet via PIE or Netfront. I have enabled POP in my GMail account.
Is there a particular POP setting that I must configure in WM6 for sending replied email via GMail?
Kinda funny, i had no problem until a couple days ago, with my gmail accounts, to send messages. Not exactly same problem, but the message is the same. My WM6 is Black 2.5.

Couple days ago? Did you made any changes to the device before this happened?
I wonder if this is caused by GMail and have nothing to do with WM6...

I had the same problem, and the solution i found is the following:
When you press the reply button you find: "Edit the sender's message" underlined.
click on it and the original sender's message will open fully
Now you can write your reply and send it well
Thanks a lot pasil.pt it seems to be the solution!!!
I had very same issue. Using gmail on Treo800/winmo 6.1, I get a message that refuses to send. Once stuck in outbox, nothing will send unless I remove it. Every time this happened I saved the offensive msg and now I have 7 of them. When I retry send any, each one fails. These are the facts for my case:
1) It happens on some messages.
2) Happens when replying or forwarding.
3) If I delete the content, the msg sends fine. At least, I can rule out problems with msg properties and header.
One thing I noticed when comparing native PO to FlexMail, is FM defaults to indenting the original msg using '>' character. PO does not. Since FM can send all these 7 msgs fine, I thought this should be good start to investigate.
So I grabbed one of the bad msgs and I indented it manually line by line and to my surprise, It sent successfully. I repeated this with each of the 7 msgs and all sent just fine.
PO does not have a UI control to toggle the 'indentbody' and 'indent character' features, but I did see there are some registry keys related. However, I could not get these keys to work.
HKCU/sofware/microsoft/inbox/settings
--> AddLeading
--> IndentBody
--> LeadChar
I can not get my changes to stick and not sure how to enter a 'dword' value for the above.
Can someone please help me find out...
- steps in changing above values and make them effective
- how to enable body indenting, make e.g. '>' the leading char using dword values.
I could not find a tweak tool to do this as well.
Any assistance will be highly appreciated.
Same issue. Very frustrating. After reading last, i tried deleting the original text (below but not including the header) and the message sent fine.

Threaded SMS app that works properly?

I have tried the Palm ripped threader for wm6 which I love because of its integration in and just appealing user interface but it seems to have some severe problems. Sometimes after closing the program after sending a message the CommManager or other programs will also pop up behind the palm app and I will have to close them too. The worst part though is that it almost always sends duplicate previous messages. Currently I am using PocketCM for my contacts and sms messaging but it has drawbacks like trying to send a message to someone that isnt a contact.
So yeah, I would really like to find a text message threading app like the palm one but that doesnt send duplicate messages over and over again, any suggestions or am I SOL?
My vote - stick with Palm Messaging
I've been using the WM6 "Palm" messaging since I first converted to WM6 (and the previous version on WM5 too) and it's always worked flawlessly.
The duplicate messages problem is a known one with ANY of the text messaging systems on the phone. It occurs when the application is closed shortly after a message is sent, the phone thinks it didn't go so sends it again. To fix it, either add the palm messaging as an exception to your X-button task manager, or (as I do) simply press the OK button on the phone to minimise it rather than close it. That should also avoid your CommManager popping up too.
Never used PocketCM, so don't know if/how that might be interfering with it though.
Good luck.

This is not a Freeware, but it works very well, and uses the Messaging Inbox. There is an update due out in about to weeks where he is planning to implement a lot of the request made in the forum. Below is the link to the authors website.

I found what you were talking about, it is the same application but a different [newer?] version. I have been using it about half the day so far and no reports yet of duplicate messages. I think you answered my question!!!

ghost text message

there are no undread texts in my sms list but my hermes still tells me that theres one unread text message, and the htc home plugin also shows as one unread text message, even when ive emptied my inbox it still says one unread, im using tnt 19199, does anyone else have this problem?
My friend also had this problem and I think it's not ROM specific problem because we were using same ROM! I really don't know how he solved that problem but when I found out I will let you know!
Quickest way out would be to backup your PPC files then hard reset the device.
Restore your data files and see if this cures the problem.
Cheers
WB
ive done that twice, i also backed up my text messages, it works fine after i hard reset it but when i restore my text messages it comes back again!
viktorx im waiting for your solution
I had the same problem. There's a little app called FixUnreadCount.exe that you can use. Not sure how to post it here but I could email it to you if you PM me your email addy.
You guys should really learn how to use the advanced functions of Google... A quick search turned up this post in this forum...

FixUnreadCount does not fix problem
I am having this problem on my unread mail messages. I completely empty all mail folders and I still always show 1 unread message. Short of doing a hard reset, any idea what may fix this?

Text Messaging Problems

Anyone else have problems with text messaging?
Scenario: I receive a text message, the notification pops up on screen. I have my phone handy, so i hit the reply button.
The phone takes me to Windows Mobile text messaging. I send my text message reply. If the same person texts me back, it is not registered as being read.
So i exit the screen back to the TouchFlo 3d menu. I have a new text message (that i have already seen and read)
So i go to the windows mobile text system to read it...again.
NOW, lets say i have a full conversation with someone. 30 messages later, I still have 30 unread messages, every time i open the windows mobile text messanger, it removes ONE new message, not all.
So, i never get to use the TouchFlo 3d messenger, which is half decent, and the WM6.1 text messenger is stupid.
Does anyone know of a setting, or a third party text program that will over ride this crap, or am i just hoping this all works out.
Am i really the only one who has text messaging difficulties?

this is a known issue my friend...
download SafeInBoxExtender... search the main forum...
it will let you "mark all messages as read" ..

*nods* i have it already, it doesnt exactly "cure" the problem, UGH!
We shouldnt have to come up with stupid fixes for stuff microsoft should already have fixed.
Is 6.5 slated to fix some of this garbage?
I have another problem
i cant use the TF messaging
allot of times it tells me message not sent
and if not there is no delivery report
i found out the there is a TF delivery report i must check 1st
but its not fixed !!!
when i go out of the message it becoms unchecked !!
So at the end i used the Win messaging with no problems there

There's a fix for that floating around the forums here, use the search function to look for "FixUnreadCount"
Thought that was for text messages only? This also does not show any messages to be there. I read that the fix mentioned was to erase a bogus 1 count.

It actually works for text and e-mail...but I misunderstood your post, I thought you were saying it's telling you that you have a new message when you don't. I'm not sure what you meant by "it started alerting with no new messages"
Just to clarify, It gives an alert every time it checks mail with or without a new message in the inbox. I do appreciate your response to this.
I will try the fix and let you know
did not work
