I am ok with the threaded SMS included in dcd's unofficial roms but I have read that many people prefer the Treo SMS application or some other... what are the best SMS applications available for the Mogul, free or paid for?

Although you won't find a CAB file on here for the Treo threaded SMS application (it was ripped from a Treo 750), you can find it by searching google for it. There are other threaded SMS programs that are available though that you can get a CAB for, such as this one:
PocketCM Contacts & Keyboard
Def can't deal with PocketCM is pissed me off..
Check the 6800 section of the wmexperts.com forums.

Sweet thanks. I installed that cab
One thing I'm concerned about is keeping my old SMSs. I loaded one threaded SMS program and it used a different database to store SMS, so I couldn't see my old ones. However, they were still there and once I uninstalled it I could see them again. Does anyone know if any of these use the same database as the default app?
I would like to get P-SMS running in 6.1... I loved it... The one over at WMExperts.com is pretty good though.
Edit:
Nevermind... just got it going...
which one out of the two in the zip file is recommended? I don't want to reassign my email button, but where is there an sms button?
okay, i installed hte sms softkey application, however, wehn I try to send a msg i get the "you're not provisioned to send multimedia messages, message not sent".
any ideas
sending double text
I have Cody threaded sms and people are telling me that I'm sending a message 2-4 times. Does anybody else have this problem?
I uninstalled, soft reset, and reinstalled. But I don't think that fixed the problem

I believe you may be able to use a cab I have... I would attach but doesnt seem to be working right now. PM me and I can email it or sumin....Cab us called Softkey Changer... works great. Props to whoever made it.
Is the shogun threaded better??

Its still doubling but i think its because when i uninstalled the cody threaded sms there waqs still some files left in my phone. Because when installed the shogun all my old sms from cody was there.

Ok so I install the latest Sprint rom on my Mogul. It works perfectly. I dont use HTC today plugs so I have no memory leaks. After 11 hours I still have 20mb of memory left. The phone runs stable. No freezes. I use Spb mods for all my other needs and sirius radio, tcmp, flash bundle, opera mini for all my apps and needs. I run Slingbox and Orb to connect to my home PC media. I have zero problems with the phone so far.
The reason for my post is I was wondering what the benifit to using 6.1 would be. I dont have memory problems. All of the menues work the way I need them ect.. As far as I can tell 6.1 boasts better memory management? I realy cant find any claims to fame on the MS sites for it.
Any info is a big help ty much!
If you use SMS a lot, the new threaded SMS client is MUCH better in 6.1
Question about the threaded SMS. If I backup my sms and load it back in after loading DCD's rom, will it still be there with the new SMS program? Basically, I want to keep my SMSs just like I keep my emails. Does the SMS program use the same database to store them? Will I be able to view the old ones in threaded style? Also, does it distiguish between conversations or does it just thread all the sms between you and said individual?
Also, here's one thing I found talking about 6.1 advantages.
http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/Hands-on-with-Windows-Mobile-6.1-Professional-article-a_2477.html
The only negative I've found is that WM 6.1's PIE seems to take quite a bit longer to "render" webpages.

After reading those ppl's comments, I clearly realize that most people are oblivious of the capabilities of WM phones. Also, the 2nd guy says he wishes he could get WM 6.1 on his XV6800. I want to tell him that he can, but that would make me more of a dork.
hahah!! i thought the same thing about that guy and his 6800! hahahaha

Yes, if you use PIM Backup to backup your SMS, when restored with WM6.1, it will restore it as threaded. It distinguishes the conversations. It will restore email like normal.

It does not distinguish the conversations in the way that Poke_N_PDA asked. Every interaction between me and my brother, for example, gets put into the same thread. We might not send messages for a week, but then once we do, it creates the messages in the same thread as our previous messages. You end up having a single thread for each contact you correspond with by text message.

I don't think I have a problem with that. It would be nice to be able to divide it yourself and start new conversations, but I can live without it.
Also, can you still view and look through messages individually like you could in 6.0? It would be really nice if they just set it up as a view option to where you could select different styles.

It's not going to be the same. There was the threaded SMS cab, but it's not the same b/c it is a separate program. In WM 6.1, when you press the messaging button, you see your emails and text messages together. If you install a cab, it will be a separate program.

Does anyone know how to remove MMS? I never use it and It's better when SMS account is separate.. Any workarounds for this? Either to remove MMS or to separate it from SMS account?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Carty..
This is an important issue
I agree, I never use MMS. It's anoying to have to choose whether I want sms or mms, whenever I click on 'send text message'
Anybody have the awnser to this one?

me too (would like to discontinue mms)
You can't remove MMS, or SMS, or split the mailboxes, as that is how the program is coded.
To get separate SMS and MMS boxes would need a different version of Inbox in the ROM.

What SMS /Text Message programs do you guys use?
So far I have tried Sms-Chat.I like the interface just just feel it needs more.
Default one that comes with DCD/WM61 works good enough for me... Threaded and everything. Running the Arcsoft CAB in the other thread for VZW and I get picture messages again.
Life is Sweet.
i use cody's threaded sms its a good program tat does wat i need it to do and it is seamlessly integrated with regular sms so no additional programs to run. it keeps me happy
I use pocketcm for contacts and sms
Built-in
WM6.1's built in sms is fine for me.
SMS Chat. loves it
I use the one with WM 6.1... works perfectly for me, threaded and everything...
Before that I used PocketCM... one of the best free apps that I have found for WM devices... easy to use, customizable, themable, and free!!!
Palringo is a nice application as well.

The new version on the VZW release is 5.0.70.24. I can receive MMS ok but SMS over 160 characters are cut off. I still receive part of the SMS along with the "Preceding msg modified, Media ojects were removed" error message.
I had my wife send the long text and she receive the following error message "Message Delivered to 7########5 as plain text Destination does not support enhanced messaging service"
It does not allow the addition of new servers or the viewing of the Verizon Wireless server settings.

This is a problem with Verizon's servers.. and not the arcsoft product.
GC14 has apparently dealt with Verizon extensively on this issue.. He talks about it in this thread (among others)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396951
That said... The new version "shouldn’t" cause any problems, and may actually offer something?? Maybe better memory usage, or bug fixes? But I dont really know.
I've been screwing with this version ever since I was given the update a while ago. There are a few issues with it I'm trying to work out, but when I'm done, it should provide an update for Alltel users as well.

I've been using it for about a week now...the main difference I noticed was with the picture messages, in version 5.0.31.25 the MMS are imbedded in the threaded SMS, and if you didnt save the content of the MMS and u received 6 or 7 new texts from the same person the message would be lost among ur other messages and u would have to click "view older messages" to get to them...
In version 5.0.70.24 each picture message is a seperate message, seperate even from the SMS messages from the same person...
but I haven't noticed anything more then that yet...
Is it possible to get this newer build as a .cab? Would it just drop in replace the existing arcsoft .cab GC14 made?
joelstad said:
I regularly use version 5.0.31.25 and I never have issues. I send text messages everyday and many of them are longer than 160 characters but sending and receiving has been working fine for me. I sms Google (http://www.google.com/intl/en_us/mobile/default/sms/index.html) and many times there are multiple responses/search results and Arcsoft just breaks them up in to separate messages. When I view the messages, they are all together though, threaded view or whatever it's called.
I do deal with the whole lost messages issue if the phone is reset while Arcsoft is open still but as long as I close the program, it's fine.
Am I rambling about stuff that you guys aren't talking about?

You can send 160 + char texts... it's receiving that is an issue.. aparently it's only certain messaging servers as well.. I get a lot of automated texts from my server server monitoring systems.. most are over 160 Char, and most are cut off ( i only need the first few lines anyway).. but about 10% of them come through as part 1 and part 2 (broken up properly).... Guess it just depends on what servers do the delivering??
This has been the issue on every version I've tried...
Where did u guys get the new arcsoft MMS? I mean is there a cab out there or is it still being tweaked?
