Backing up MMS in Arcsoft 5.0.31.16 - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

Anyone know of a way to backup the MMS pics in Arcsoft 5.... This version is totally threaded for both SMS and MMS.... It's way cool, but I hate to lose the messages everytime I re-flash a new ROM..... If I knew where the messages were being stored maybe I could backup the folders with PIMbackup....

MMS database after upgrade to SE

Before the upgrade to SE I was still using MMS that wasn't integrated into outlook. Having upgraded to SE, all new MMS I receive are visible in my MMS inbox, but none that I have received in the past. They are in the correct directory.
Am I right in assuming then that they are not listed in the MMS inbox data file?
Is there any solution to this problem - I have some quite important MMS on my phone that are currently accessible only using resco Explorer - and this invovles finding an MMS without being able to see the subject - I have about 150 mms to choose from.
Thanks in advance!

Threaded MMS with SMS

Are there any programs that allow for threaded MMS within the SMS threads? It would be so much nicer if I didn't have to jump in and out of the different texting and picture messaging accounts.
Also, is there any reason why the sendto field in the MMS is so terrible for autocomplete? SMS is fine; if I start to type a name, it shows my options. But in MMS I have to type in the whole number.
Please help, I hate having to write things down.

arcsoft 5 does this, and is included in dcd's 3.0.4 kitchen unless he changed things. i am still trying to get it included in the ppckitchen.org kitchen, so it should be there shortly
Anyone have a cab that I can try or is this something that I need to have cooked into the rom?
edit: I found it.. will upload later
But why can't I see my old pics?

Arcsoft MMS v5, v4, v3.5.1.24C

Ok, I have an AT&T 8525 on AT&T network in the U.S. I've flashed my phone with about 20 different ROMs. I've tried Arcsoft MMS Composer v4 and Arcsoft MMS Composer v5, but I have not had any kind of consistency receiving MMS messages like I do with my factory WM6 and Arcsoft MMS Composer 3.5.1.24C.
Does anyone have the CAB file for Arcsoft MMS Composer 3.5.1.24C and has anyone tried using that version with a cooked WM6.1 ROM on AT&T and actually had it work consistently?
Arcsoft MMS 4 and 5 on cooked ROMs only receive MMS messages about 20%-50% of the time.
Yes, I've searched... and searched... and searched... figured I'd just ask, get flamed, and maybe get an answer.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.
can you see my SIGNATURE????
Click and join to a new forum... bla bla bla click there
and enter to the software section it is a thread with many versions of Arcsoft MMS composer enjoy it....
OH! register there please for download files.
Thanks...
I joined and looked at the post for Arcsoft MMS, but that didn't really answer my question or give me a CAB for MMS Composer 3.5...
I guess I just want to know that I'm actually getting what people are sending me and that's the only reason I'm back to my factory ROM. I've sent myself test MMS messages on numerous ROMs with both Arcsoft MMS Composer 4.2.8.1 and MMS Composer 5..(whatever) and have never had 100% of my MMS messages received... only with the factory ROM and MMS Composer 3.5.1.24C have I had reliable success.
Thanks anyway.
you can do something...

Is my theory... Since i came to hermes i didnt manage to get it... but... you can unhide the extended ROM just find how with the original rom... then go to the extended rom maybe with luck it must be a cab for it... if not... it must be hard coocked inside
Give the Palm threaded SMS app a try if you don't mind combined SMS/MMS. I've tried all the ones you mentioned and still go back to this as like the way it handles MMS. You can even type a few characters of the name and have it give you the options (which the normal MMS doesn't do)
Is it reliable and consistent?
I really don't mind the combined SMS/MMS, I just want to make sure It's consistent. Do you happen to have the CAB for the Palm threaded SMS?
My main goal is consistent MMS receipt and threaded text messaging (that's why I want to go back to WM6.1). Is there any way for me to actually get both?
Why are you in Stock ROM?
Maybe this is your trouble... threaded SMS cant be performed on wm6 Stock ROMs neither soooo upgrade to another rom 6.1 and use the arcsoft mms composer 5.31 i think or the new one and please be sure your carriers dont have issues at this time.. then your setting please verify it very good and then try more than one version if not i dont know why you have troubles.

You're right, I know that threaded SMS won't work in WM6 ROMs so that's why I said I want to go back to WM6.1. However, MMS is not reliable on any ROM I have tried EXCEPT the factory WM6 ROM. I want both, reliable MMS (like my Arcsoft MMS Composer 3.5.1.24C on my stock ROM) AND threaded SMS like all of the WM6.1 ROMs I've tried (PDACorner V25, V27, CRC, and about 2 dozen other ones).
No luck?
So I'm guessing that no one else has had any luck with getting all MMS to come in through any other ROM / Arcsoft combination on AT&T in the U.S. except for the stock WM6 ROM?
Im in the search for the same Arcsoft MMS Composer 3.5.1.24C
can eny body extrac the cab file I try is not on the extended rom
Bump
Did you ever get that cab of the old arcsoft??
I'm having difficulties getting v5 to work with darkwinter or manilla2 and when I get v4 to work, it's limited to 300k per message, I believe I should be able to get 600.
Any advice?

Can I save my messages to...

my sd card instead off it automatically saving it to the handset memory and taking forever before I can send a text if there are a lot messages threaded together?
nope. you can either delete all your messages to help with the freezing, though it'll come back when you get a lot more messages, or disable HTC Messaging & go back to the older/better WM messaging.
A few people have been saying that the leaked 3.14 ROM doesn't lag/freeze with texts so you may want to look in to that.

I can confirm this statement. The 3.14 ROM has a lot of the original bugs fixed (including slow loading when you have a lot of messages) but still if you have 300+ messages from someone it can start to get a little lag. If you don't want any at all I would recommend switching back to Windows Mobile messaging.
edit: If you use Microsoft My Phone it will back up all your messages and you can archive them online. This will allow you to delete them from your phone to solve the lagging problem without losing them permanently. If you would rather have a hard copy on your phone I'd suggest Resco Backup, it is a fabulous program. Link to both backup solutions below.

Resco Backup
Jeyo Mobile Companion is also a great way to backup messages. It backs them up to MS Outlook
Cheers guys, will start backing up my messages.
You can give a try to PimBackup to save your messages, too.

[Q] MMS sending again after restoring from backup

Has anyone experienced MMS messages being sent again after flashing a rom and restoring messages from backup?
Friends and family told me that I started to send them old MMS's yesterday (fortunately again to the same recipient) and my T-M account says i've already sent 13 of mms (maybe all of I have stored in my phone, i don't use mms a lot).
Please confirm my theory: it's a problem with incompatible MMS storage restored to another ROM with differend kind of message metadata, so the new ROM believed that all MMS are only to be sent. (App used MyBackup Root, migrating from Cronos to SalsaSense with AltMsg)
Please share your similar experiences.
