Hi
I am trying to re-install my MDA Vario II, cherry picking only the cabs that give me something useful. Everything works OK apart from MMS. Put simply, the MMS folder will not stick around after a soft reset.
If I let t-mobile install all its [email protected] after a hard reset, MMS works fine and stays put after a soft reset. If I cherry pick only what I want, it does not work.
My question is which cabs are required in order to support MMS (both the cabs that are installed from the windows folder and also those in the extended rom). I have actually run through and manually installed each cab in order as per what the preconfig and config files do... MMS still dissapears after a soft reset!!! It really is very very odd (and frustrating).
I would search for this as it sounds like an issue that someone else may have had. Unfortunately, the search function does not work correctly (told me 15 times that I entered the image verification text incorrectly, when it was actually entered correctly 15 times).
The lack of a quick search function that does not seek to wind up the user makes this site less useful than it used to be!

Hi,
I'm quite sure I've downloaded cab file from XDA forum that removes O2 icon in W2003SE Sin Merged ROM.
I spent last 2 days searching in the forum and nothing.
Can anyone help me and give the URL to that file?
Thanks a lot.

Hope This Helps

Hi all
Like others, I don'l like the O2 icon or the startup screen, but I can live with that.
You can delete/move the connetion.exe file in the \Windows\Startup folder to avoid the O2 icon
Hi,
I know. But if is possible I would like to remove it.
If I move/delete the .exe file, the connections warnings and notifications will work the same?
Thanks

O2 Icon
The file in the Windows/startup folder is only a link (conections.lnk) with te program in a subfolder. I have removed it and all the noemal notifications work fine, the only thing the O2 icon did was change colour when connected and brought up the multiple notifaction icon.

DO a hard reset. Then at the screen that says personal or corporate user then do a soft reset. Waa Laa! No more garbage active O2 or icon in the start menu bar.
Mike i know if you hard reset then at the connection set up if you do corporate then enter 0506 it will not install any o2 crap, but it also will not install the connections GPRS etc etc, OK we have CAB files to fix this. But if as you said soft reset instead entering code, dose this set any connections. I am in the UK and Use o2 but just dont wont the active crap, but do wont everything else
Thanks
John
Hi,
Catanash is right.
Remove the link from startup folder and O2 will vanish.
And when you have notifications from sms or call, the icon will show up.
I use wisbar, so I see another icon, not O2.
Thanks Catanash.

Has anyone gotten MMS working on Alltel yet? I read through GC's Verizon-only thread, but there weren't any updates for other carriers.
search for LennySh_Alltel_Arcsoft_3.0.26.12c....pm me if needed
I have tried every version of MMS fixes out there and nothing has worked yet. I have tried a half dozen arcsoft cabs, a few lenny cabs and GC cabs and changed the settings on all of them to whatever is listed to work and nothing works. I guess I'll try to return to the OEM Alltel rom.
I've tried many different ways as well.
When connected using usb/cradle, it sends and receives w/ ease. Otherwise, it would receive 50% of the time, and send mms <10% of the time.
edit: also, the <10% time that it works is when it says "msg failed retry now or later", I restart, then 1st thing I do is send/receive in the inbox, then it works. not really efficient way to use mms.
Yes, returning will work
I had the same problem for so long. With every rom and version of arcsoft it would take sometimes days to reiceve mms. What has worked for me is flashing the latest oem alltel rom with radio 3.37.20 (which is included.) Install OLipro 2.4 and flash dcd 3.2.5. Run the alltel customs. My titan works better now on every aspect then it ever did. I hope I never have to hard reset because I love the way everything is running now. For the month and some odd days I've been running it I get gps locks in less than 5 seconds all the time and maybe had to soft reset 3 times.
I have read and read and browsed and downloaded and typed and entered and so on!!!!! But none of the solutions or cabs seems to work for Erofich's Standard 6.1 1.1.7 version. I am on the Cingular/AT&T network. Does anyone have the fix? I can send MMS but cannot download.
Have the same problem but can download picture not audio files

i have the settings if you want them. the cab files wouldnt work for me either. just pm me or just ask in the forum.
settings
they are also on the att website.
Yes, the settings on the ATT website WORK, but not completely. The MMS header will download, but you can't view any pictures. This must be a ROM issue - I've tried everything I can think of!
Finally resolved
This is one of those occasions where you are not sure what fixed it in the array of changes, but it worked, so don't argue with results.
I went in and cleared out all the settings that came by default with the 6.1 ROM. (Proxy, GPRS, MMS, etc.)
I then input by hand the settings on the AT&T website at:
http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=cingular&thread.id=84238
Thank you Firewulf for the kind offer. I am curious to see what your settings are though.
I get alerts, I am able to send and receive all MMS messages as well as txt msg and Exchange Outlook email. No ERROR SYNCHRONIZING anymore!
Strange... my internet works (as well as all my internet enabled apps), texting works fine, but MMS is still a no-go! I don't get "error synchronizing" anymore... it just tries to send and always fails 5 minutes later! I have checked and re-checked the settings - I am running the latest WM 6.1 Standard ROM from this forum.
Hey all, i originally posted this problem in January, still no fix.
Wondering if any of the new folks to the forum have any suggestions.
I am using an unlocked TG01 from Orange (UK) on Rogers in Canada (GMT -5), using the official 6.5 ROM. CE OS 5.2.21840 (Build 21840.5.0.60)
My SMS messages recieved are logged 5 hours behind current time. My SMS messages sent are logged at the current time. My suspicion is that it has to do with the origin of the phone, from the UK.
I have searched xda forums and modaco forums, microsoft, and google.
I have total commander, and have modified the registry in a few was, as described below:
I have added the TrustTimeZoneField field dword (in HKLM\System\Phone Settings\OEM ... or whatever it was.)
I have modifed HKLM\Time Zones to include Eastern Standard Time with the proper TZI file.
I have tried to set the timezone to another setting (like GMT -3) reset the phone, and then change it back, and it doesn't not work.
I have download a cab file that was supposed to fix it too.
I am looking for any other ideas, please, and thanks.
Rogers Canada Connections Settings
I followed rogers settings I found on from another site , but although I managed to get the sms working, MMS is still ignoring me. I also cannot connect to the internet/skype using 3G, only wifi, which is quite annoying.
Anyhow, give this a try and see where you get. I found that the Toshiba framework doesn't allow you to add all of these settings, so that might be part of the problem. Anyone have a .cab that might allow for a more comprehensive wifi/3G settings input?

Did you ever get your mms working?? I got mine going with this http://www.stephenwagner.com/?p=33
I recently reinstalled faria crossbow on my g4 wizard (T-mobile MDA unlocked to AT&T) and went from radio 2.25.11 to 3.02, because I was having the common missed calls problem. I always used faria crossbow in the past (for 2 years now) without any problems to speak of.
I noticed this morning that when I go to check my voicemail I can't press any keys in-call to delete or repeat my messages. I can hear the tones as the buttons are pushed, but they do nothing to my voicemails. This also applies to any other calls which use touchtone features, like calling the bank or my insurance company and needing to press '0' for operator. It seems there is no communication between the phone and the network once a call is established.
I tried searching for this issue on google, but its a hard issue to condense into a search term ("touchtone mda problem", for example). So I'm starting a thread because I've had this problem with an 8525 I bought a couple years ago, and after several months of frustration I ended up selling the phone and going back to the 8125/MDA.
Please help me out!
[FONT="]In my experience, changing the keypad tone from long tones to short tones works for me.[/FONT]

[FONT="]Maybe you can try and see if that helps you, or the reverse of that.[/FONT]

[FONT="]Go to Start, Settings, Personal tab, select Phone and change the Keypad: tone.[/FONT]
seems like it should be something simple like that, but no dice. you say you had the same problem and that fixed it?
I had issues with my banks automated system until I switched to short tones then everything worked.
Since this didn’t work for you there must be some other issue.
You could backup your phones info and try a hard reset.
