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.
-Sayajin
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.
-Sayajin
Ok,
Here's a (fixed) OEM for the ArcSoft MMS 4.2.81 for VERIZON users only. Others can take the OEM and edit the .rgu for their own needs though.....
Verizon users will need to EDIT the .rgu to ADD their cell number to the following KEY ( "X-VzW-MDN"="XXXXXXXXXX" ) Replace the X's with your 10 digit cell #..... then save it..... Place it in your kitchen and cook away.....
Enjoy...

id like to say how well this works. my hat is off the azclown for sticking through it with me and figuring it out.
thanks so much buddy.
Sorry If I am coming out with a dumb question..... but what does this new software offer? or Fix? Can some one inform me of it?
yeah.. I just downloaded it.. but how do I edit the RGU file?
I extracted the file and looked in the folder and i can only find 1 RGU file.. (166779e0-ca01-4aea-bb21-d72b93a86e0a.rgu)
how do I edit it..???
is there a special tool i need to use?
thanks.. please reply ASAP.. im waiting for your answer...
You know this has been available from PPCGeeks for quite awhile right? Not that I don't appreciate your work, I just hate to see someone work hard when it has all ready been done.
hi.. can you post the link for the working version on ppcgeeks ...
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=165811&postcount=70
I went through that OEM this morning and found several discrepencies in the rgu. Not sure those differences will do anything, but as of right now, mine works very well for Verizon. Thanks for the link....
b16daddy - open the RGU using notepad.... It is only a text file....

It works perfectly for me on all of the ROMs I have created.
Would you mind explaining what you mean by discrepancies?
I tried both versions of the OEM (This thread and PPCgeeks). I can receive MMS with both ... but cannot send using my xv6800. I changed my number .. but always see "error synchronizing" at the bottom.

on my phone the mdn number and my cell number are different. do i put the mdn number or my cell number in the rgu?
i re downloaded the files and only made update to the string. Maybe I touched something I shouldnt have. I will let you know if I can send MMS.
Well ... i got a confirmation that the pic was sent. Even though when I hit the Send/Receive button the it still says error synchronizing ...
i noticed a bug i think...
if i close messaging using HTC X-Button too many times, it starts to not recieve MMS. I am still researching but it looks like a bug.

no sir. after a few days it started "error syncornizing" and not receiveing. so i went back to the older version but today i am going to recook the ROM and see how it behaves for me. so odd, my friend...
nope. error synronizing. i am going to redownload your cab and try it again
The only time I get that error is when I hit the Send/receive button and I have no outgoing message to send....
i am recooking now. give me a few minutes to report back
I have MMS working on DCD's newest 3.1.2 ROM with the 3.39 Radio as well.
1. I installed the 3.39 Radio using the stock Sprint 3.39 Test ROM.
2. I installed DCD's 3.1.2 ROM using the kitchen with the Arcsoft OEM from DCD's 3.0.4 Kitchen cooked in.
3. I installed the Verizon Customization CAB
4. I added the string X-VzW-MDN with a value of my ten digit phone number to HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader in the registry.
5. I changes the MMS setttings to:
Server settings that need to change:
Gateway: "blank"
port: 80
Server address: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
Sending Size limit: 300k
Now my MMS works fine.
Hope this helps people since for some reason everyone sort of skirts around this topic.
did u try MMS video? just seeing if yours is working ok. mine was working then it wasnt then it was...
There is a thread SPECIFICALLY for mms on 3.1.x. It was started to stop the crazy amount of posts in the kitchen thread and to thwart against tons of new threads like this. Please, from now on post in that thread to discuss ANYTHING to do with MMS on 3.1.x

You guys do know that there are other people out there on other carriers trying to get MMS working too? That's the reason for the dedicated MMS 3.1.x thread.
Also, you do realize that if you use the verizon carrier cab that I posted, with the MMS settings, and not the new one, that you don't have to go in and change anything in the server settings.
gcincotta maybe I found you. I have falshed my xv6800 w/ dcd 3.1.2 with the 3.39 radio and I installed the verizon cab. Everything is werking fine after the over the air prog. But the OS does not have the personal settings tab, there is no voice command, and there is no slide sounds settings. Can you please advise??? please...

MMS settings are different for each carrier. That's why it doesn't make sense to do your "collective MMS" thread.
Say i have verizon, i need to sort through tons of unrelated crap to find an answer. This thread is short, concise, and it works.
Please stop complaining.... If you have a CAB which does this for us. Than please post it.

This is not complaining, this is common sense. MMS settings are indeed different for each carrier, but if you actually read my posts you'd find that you do NOT have to touch your settings WHATSOEVER as long as you use the carrier cab WITH MMS settings. I do have a cab that does this for you, and if you took a minute to fill out a search box you'd find it ALONG with my instructions on how to make it work. All you have to do is enter your MDN key, which can be done using UC AUTOMATICALLY. As far as I'm concerned, this thread is pointless and clutter, as EVERYTHING stated in it has either already been said, or is moot.
If you search my posts you'll find that I help a LOT of people, and I love doing it, but when ignorance like this is thrown into the mix, it makes it a lot less rewarding.
Halkeye, shoot me a pm and we'll get your situation squared away asap. No reason to continue this thread, especially with off topic stuff.

Well i just did a search "Verizon MMS" it came back with this thread and your other thread and a bunch of useless threads (no i didn't look at every one, if it doesn't have a clear title no one will look at it) none of which have this CAB file your talking about. Regardless These instructions are great for people who have already run the DCD Verizon customizations and don't want to re-flash and then run your customizations. I still think this thread is relevant and again if you have this CAB i think it would still be useful to post it.
I will be posting complete instructions in the other thread along with the cab file.
i dont get it, what the difference between mms and sms...i can already send photo or video as txt message attachments, and the receiver gets them just fine...whats the advantage of sending an mms message?

im sorry for the troubles you had before, im trying to incorporate something in my next version to prevent vz troubles like you had.

What happens for you? For me at this point it just puts me back to the SMS\MMS Inbox and nothing else. Am I doing it wrong or is this a known issue?
Thanks!
What version of Arcsoft did you install?? I am currently debugging the registry for the change right now..... Hold tight, when a fix is found it will be posted and then a new cab will be made....
Arcsoft MMS 5.0.31.19 I believe, is there a way to confirm?
*edit*
Yep... remove programs says : dcd VZW Arcsoft MMS 5.0.31.19
FIXED it Scorp.... See my MMS post.... BTW - Get GC's newer version.... WITH the fix integrated here....

Got it, thanks. Uninstalled, checked reg, and am reinstalling now...
If i can get a full reg dump. only the reg from HKLM..
there are missing entries in the rom I have and it will be easier for me to go though a full .reg dump then all of the rgus in a rom dump.
Hard Reset might help u?

Basicly all you need is a reg editor for windows mobile, which can be found here http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/ if you don't already have one.
connect your phone to your computer using active sync.
open ce reg editor and connect to your phone.
the reg keys will be displayed in the left pane.

then zip the file and upload here thankyou for your help.

but obviously features like GPS and other hardware features that arnt on the OMAP850 will not work. But like i said, we have your rom on our device so put yours and mine next to eachother your just going to see a diffrent case

Question. for you guys. does the htc favorites homescreen plugin update automaticly or are they preset ?

As far as I'm concerned the HTC Favorites plugin is a live display of the IE favorites. But I am not entirely certain about that since I don't have a S740.

I don't use it and have it disabled on my (altered) sliding panels home screen, but I have just tried it and it seems to update automatically.
It has a bug, however. When I bookmarked new site, it was added to the panel, but panel page with that site lacked headline "Internet explorer", IE icon and right soft key functionality.
