I was wondering if anyone has used the new arcsoft MMS in the new ROM. Was it supposed to be an update? improvements?

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?

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 just installed the shogun threaded hopefulkly its better than the cody threaded, but i had one question is there any way to make the calander button on the today screen to make it the smsm button like the cody threaded? "
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.
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?
Does anybody know how to turn off SMS threated mode (conversation) and make it normal like in outlook (just classic view - sorting according to date)? I had android 1.5, than tried 2.2 and 2.1 but i didnt found any option for this. Thanks for help...
Moved to Q&A as not development
Why would you want to go back to the old way? It was clearly worse. One of the greatest change I had from upgrading to a Hero was the conversation mode - just incredible. Why would you want to go back to a situation where you can't see the message you're replying to?
On topic - have you tried Handcent SMS and checked the options? That app is amazing.

thats because its sorted according to date like in Outlook. icould never use outlook with conversation mode in my work becouse it seems to me very chaotic. You only see name and number of sms, so you have to click on contact. Dont know why developers dont give us at least possibility to turn it off. i think its just a matter of small tweak or st....
The individual threads are still sorted by date though. So you still know the latest texts over the older ones, i.e. higher the contacts name the newer the text. You don't have to even look at the older texts as they're hidden in the conversation lists but available if necessary.
As I said Handcent is the most likely program to have this feature.
It's unlikely to be a "small" tweak as it requires splitting your conversations into Inbox & Outbox as well as then having multiple messages for each contact. This is a complete overhaul of the way in which it currently sorts, sends and receives messages.

Something weird that I've gotten when sending MMS through GOSMS is it sends a link and never an image, which is a problem for my buddies who have dumbphones. Any fix?
Link looks like this and it's embeded and shows up as the image on my smartphone, but not to other peoples dumbphones without 3G.
http://gosms.en.3g.cn/D?f=W448BG8FI08fI_ViaGoSMS
Are there any settings to turn this off and actually send the person the MMS and not some lame link?

yep I do this and it uploads it to a gosms server and sends that link instead of the actual file.
OHH
nevermind. There's a separate little tab called GOMMS which is apparently different from regular MMS.
problem solved, thanks.
thats what I meant, No problem
I contacted ChompSMS support about the sending of MMS messages to iPhone users. They never received them although the program said it was sent.
David from support sent me a beta trial version to try. It worked. The other fix is to switch to the stock messaging app to send MMS messages but that kinda sux.
Just install this apk over the existing version. You will not lose existing texts. It worked for me. Let me know if it does NOT work for you.
I ran into the same problem with a friend of mine. He has an iPhone. tried sending mms with Chomp and he never received him.
I will give the fix a try.
One question. I paid to remove adds, will anything be messed up by installing this in regards to the license?
No. Mine is still ad free.

Why does using the stock Messaging app suck (which works fine for both sms and mms) as opposed to going through all that bs trying to get a 3rd party app to work??
I used handcent for years when the stock MMS/SMS apps really did suck, but the stock Rezound app works perfectly 100% of the time (no matter what kind of phone its sending to) and looks awesome if you theme it correctly.
Chomp SMS offers more bells and whistles. Blacklisting, custom backgrounds, etc.
