Okay. So here is the one issue that I have been having with this particular Rom.
I can receive MMS messages just fine, but I cant send them. When I hit send and receive it says error synchronizing. The crazy thing is that in the progress icon for sending MMS it goes to 100%, however it never leaves my outbox and the other person never gets it.
I changed the settings under server to the correct ones:
Server settings that need to change:
Gateway: "blank"
port: 80
Server address: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
Sending Size limit: 350k or 400k
Any ideas? This is the only problem I have had so far! btw, like I said in my title, im on VZW. Btw, I know about the Arcsoft Sprint MMS hack, however if possible I would like to use the version on Arcsoft that came with the DCD rom as it has a lot of features the old sprint hack does not. Thx.

if you are on verizon you dont use the sprint hack, you dont need a hack at all. make sure you did not make any changes before you set up your MMS. i know several people that did some things and thought it was the arcsoft but it was something else they had changed. from scratch, only change the registry (did you make these changes?), the server and the connection. then it should work, almost guaranteed. this is in multiple posts so just search and you will find tons of them.
Sounds like my problem may be that I didint make those registry changes you were referring to. Other than that, the only thing I did was put the correct server in.
What registry modifications do I need to make in order for it to work on VZW?
btw, I wanted to add that I searched and found some threads on this issue and the correct settings for T-Mobile, but i diddnt see one for VZW.
Thanks a lot.

MMS reg
SSJSayajin,
Follow my directions here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364043&page=30
Use the reg file and edit it......
Thanks a lot man your a Savior! One issue however, I am open the file and modify it with no problem, however I cant import it!
I am using Total Commander as my file explorer and PHM Regedit as my registry editor. When I click the file a "do you want to import this" does not come up. It actually opens up PHM Regedit, however the option to import the file is greyed out.
Any Ideas? This is my last issue! Thx.
*edit*
So I found out the problem, PHM does not allow you to import reg entries. So how do I open up the default reg editor so I can import this? Thx guys.
-Sayajin
I have a problem with the MMS registery hack you posted, I downloaded it, removed .txt, edited my phone number, transfered it to my phone but in file explorer or total commander when I click on it, it gives me a error " there is no application associated with "Verizon MMS settings for Arcosoft 4281" run the application first, then open this file from within the application" I am running DCD 2.2.6 rom,any help? thanks
Well I figured out one issue, as far as importing the reg file, use DotFred's Task Manager. It has a built in reg editor that works perfectly.
But my stuff still doesnt work properly! I imported the reg entry and I know it worked becuase it added more items to my phone, however I have the same problem of being unable to send mms. Does the exact same thing as before with the error of unable to syncronize.
Any ideas? Thx.
-Sayajin
i am testing this now. did a hard reset, imported it and i'll test it out.
that didnt work. I am juust going back to 3.2
i could send but not recieve
1st - Are you guys on Verizon?
2nd - Did you read the entire thread that I linked too.... It has other items you will need to do..... That thread resolved most if not all issues relating to using MMS with Verizon. Now when I put a new ROM on my phone, I have added the registry entries in MY file to the OEMizer and that adds it automatically to the ROM, so I get MMS right away with my new ROM..... Like I am on DCD's 2.3.1 right now, and I have MMS just fine.... Please go back and read that other thread entirely.... It will help guys.....

that thread is lots of pages long.. is there a way we can get a summary?
Not to be an ass, but thats how you learn... read... I've been lurking around here for about 1 3/4 months, and really have done nothing but read as much as possible.... so really it's up to you to summarize it for yourself. I'd have to re-read it again to be able to summarize it, and I don't have the time to do that research again..... sorry....

lol, youre not being an ass. thats what i would say.
what i meant was, there's more to it than just importing the reg file right?
so, i imported the reg file and it had a random character in the gateway field, so i removed that and i can send fine, but i still cant receive. I'll look through that thread more and see whats going on here.
Are you using Arcsoft MMs ver 4.2.81 right?
EDIT: When you download my reg file, it comes with a .txt extension. When you save it, does it's icon change? If not, then it's not being saved as a registry file....

Yea, its version 4.2.81. Also Yes, the registry icon changes once you remove the .txt extension. The file imports just fine, it just doesnt resolve the issue. Also yes, its on Verizon.
While I realize that reading that 60+ page thread will help, unfortunately I would rather not spend 2 hours reading the thread for a solution that someone may know off hand. Now of course if thats not possible I will have to read it, but I was hoping someone would know of a fix?
What else needs to be done in order to be able to send and receive MMS messages in addition to the registry hack that was pointed out?
-Sayajin
yeah, its verizon and i have that version of arcsoft. whast odd is that it was working fine on 2.2.6, on 2.3.1 it isnt. i even used oemizer to setup the registry entries and still... i can send but not recieve.
i am completely stumped
Okay, So I broke down and read about 30 pages of the thread to look for MMS issues. This is what I have found in a summary.
1. Install the Reg file in this post.
2. Delete every other server listed under MMS servers
3. Delete the random character that shows up under Gateway in server settings.
4. Go into the registry and where it says Default as the value for anything, change it to Verizon Wireless.
5. Soft Reset
Thats about everything I got from the post after reading 30+ pages. Still have the same issue....
-Sayajin
FWIW - This is about the only thing I can think of that might help.... Go into your registry and delete the config key under ArcSoft MMS UA.... Then import this reg file, its straight from my 6800 this morning, and I can confirm it works just fine for me..... I zipped it so there is no need to change the extension..... I send and received MMS from myself and from a friends phone he let me use.... I just tested this out.... I also tested my config by changing the sending size and when I upped it, I couldn't send anymore..... So trying to send larger files may mess up your ability to send MMS..... Hopefully this helps..... If the import doesn't solve the issue, then hard reset, imput the reg and test again......
I'm trying to help as much as I can.....
Thx a lot for the assistance man!
One issue, when trying to import the new file it says "error the selected file is not a registry script unable to import" any ideas on that one?
Thx.

Hi Everyone,
I'm pretty good at searching for my answers & 95% of the time i find them. but i cant seem to locate the answer to this question.
I can send or forward a text to 1 person at a time with no problem. but i cant forward or send the same text message to multiple people. when i do, only the first person receives the text & no one else... i am running dcd 3.2.5... i have also encountered this before with the other dcd roms...
does anyone have a solution to this?... PLEASE!!!!
You have to put a semi colon in manually before you add each name....
Name ; Name ; Name etc.....
Wouldn't it help you and the forum best to actually elaborate upon your issue in the title? Just a bland question is actually a lottery for trolling of hits on the thread. ...just my two cents..

I do know that the latest rom does not include the latest Arcsoft MMS software. I'm not sure if it effects anything. You definitely have to put the semicolons in between the names. If that fails and you want MMS... download and install the following.... Arcsoft MMS 5.0.31.25

I have the same issue and has nothing to do with semi colons. It auto populates them when you select another contact. Only the first person gets the sms. I posted this in the DcD thread tonight. I came across it this evening when I was trying to send multiple contact sms's tonight. Bummer, but I am sure there is a fix.
Mikee
So your saying with the latest Arcsoft from GC14 that you cannot send to more than 1 person???
You've installed something that is messing with the SMS.
Now in portrait mode I have no issues with selecting up to 16 people per SMS, and 10 in MMS. In landscape, I have to add the semi-colon after each name manually..... I am on 3.2.5 with the 3.42.50 radio.......

This works... now is there antway to have the semicolons entered automatically when sending a text to multiple people?
Well I founf a fix! quite simple. Go to start settings and input. select word completion and check all three boxes and now the semi colons auto populate. I forgot dcd disables this by default.
cheers,

try group sms
Hi all,
I'm sorry for probably a completely noob question, but it's been bugging me and I cannot find a solution.
Whenever I send an SMS I have a load of things to do afterwards and this is annoying.
First comes the confirmation of sending. I need to go to the notifications bar, go to the notification itself and close it. And then comes the delivery report. I need to go to the Inbox and read it. If I don't want my inbox to be filled with meaningless delivery report messages I need to manually delete it each time. Fortunately by this time the notification disappears from the bar so I don't need to delete it manually.
And all this of course with activating my phone's ring/vibration.
This is not how it's supposed to be done? So is(are) there a way(s) around it?
1. First of all the most annoying is that a delivery report is saved as a regular message. I've tried searching around with nothing found except that its a WM way of doing this and there's no way to change it. And then I found this dinosaur thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=387307 which is sadly discontinued. Does anyone know if anything has been done on this topic? An app? Or perhaps a rom with such change?
2. Second thing - is there a way of disabling the notification in the bar of a message being sent?
It all should be just an icon beside a message showing the status - failed to send/successfully send/received with perhaps a easily deleted popup for the delivery report.

Set the value to 1
This will stop SMS notifications
Thanks for this at least

Found that previously, but haven't got that entry on my registry ...
Would the CAB posted above solve it regardless of the missing key?
Thanks,
Pozi.
Not sure why you don't have that key. You can use total commander to add it if the cab file I attached doesn't add it for you. If it doesn't add it, installing the cab doesn't change a thing, so you have nothing to lose.
Dear Expert!
Pls help me!
I have HD2 from Korea
I only can write 80byte messeage
Currently I am using this phone at overseas...
So 80byte messeage would be written means too short and even this would be as one messeage even if i text in overseas...it would be so waste money....
Pls help me to extend the byte for me to write as other smart phone over 80byte?
I am pretty sure there may be the way to modify in registry
I am looking forward to having your answer....
Thanks and B~ well~
Hi, i'm using the Synergy ROM and love it. The only thing i don't like is the default screen that comes up when the phone rings (in this case it's a big VirusROM logo). I would like to change this to either the stock screen, or perhaps one from another ROM.
From what I can tell, I need to find the PHONE.APK file from the ROM I want and then add it to the phone. What I cannot find is instructions on how to successfully replace the file that is already on the phone. Based on some threads I've read, I assume a simple drag and drop won't work.
Or, maybe there is an easier way? I use GO Contacts as my dialer, the only thing i'm really looking to change is the large picture that shows up for any contact who does not have a pic associated (none of my contacts have pics, so it comes up for every call for me).
Any advice/suggestions appreciated. If I missed this information in an obvious place, I apologize.
Use Ninjamorph (on your phone) or apk tools on your computer to replace /system/app/Phone.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/picture_unknown.png with whatever you want.
Thanks! Is there a certain file size or resolution that the file needs to be?

Yes. If there's a theme that has an image already made for it that you would rather have, you can just replace with it since it would already be sized appropriately. Otherwise, there should be several themeing guides that walk you through how to extract the apk, create the replacement images, replace them, and recompress. Just look for some good themeing guides. I don't have any links handy but they shouldn't be difficult to find.
Got it, thanks so much for your quick and thorough assistance
