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.

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.
Hi,
I recently switched to an unlocked HTC Hero with 2.73 firmware and i find the device great in many areas. However, i have one problem regarding SMS threading. ALL sent / received sms from one contact are displayed in only one thread It's cool to have the threaded view when the are replies back and forth on a particular topic, but i find it annoying when several days later a new sms from this given contact on a completely different topic gets added to the previous thread from the same contact.
Is this the normal behavior ? Can it be modified to behave like "mail" (i.e one thread for back and forth replies, and start another thread if it's not a reply ? or this is not possible, can i disable the threading altogether ?
Many thanks,
Romain.
Good question. I would also like to know the answer.
hi all,
actually i never want to make a new thread for this, but i've searched for all related post regarding this problem, and i got nothing. Well, the closest solution that i've found is the Zenyee's disable htc messaging interface application, but even that is not working for me.
the problem is the sms messages display in chronological manner, even though of course the threaded messaging option is "ON" by default. This problem only occur if you open the sms by using the manila sms interface (or directly by tap the sms tab), but if you open the sms conversation by using the WM, it looks just fine. I know, maybe it's a porting bug that hasn't been able to be solve (or maybe it isn't).
I just wanna know if anybody has a same problem with me. If yes, what have you done to solve this problem? and one more thing, is there anyway to change the shortcut of the sms tab, so when you tap the sms tab, it takes you to the WM sms display, instead of taking you to the manila sms interface?
i'm using ROMeOS V3.O1 WWE. WM 6.5 . MANILA 2
i'm really thankful and appreciate for all the response to this post.
Does anyone know how to split/archive an sms thread (or perhaps start a new thread for my wife, keeping the old one). I have imported all my sms from my Windows Mobile using Sprite Migrate (cool free beta software).
My wifes thread has 4k sms messages, and takes a few seconds to load, does anyone know if I can split the thread into chucks? It would be cool if they were split by date.
Does anyone know if I could backup all sms using some tool, and modify the file to split the sms, and re import?
I own MyBackupPro, does anyone know if these file are easily manipulated?
Thanks
looks like nobody can help you. afaik these things are stored in sqlite databases, maybe you can look into that. my layman's guess would be that the first problem is to seperate the two threads, maybe you need to create a contact WIFE2 or smthng, and alter the number in the database for a few (thousand) sms.
btw, WTF? i once tried to restore a backup of my sms with ~35 msgs in the largest thread, made the sms app FC... yesterday i had to delete a thread with 32 apps because it always showed me one unread in the summary, but all read in the thread...
Added automatic SMS threading disable to XDA_UC script to help with SMS message order when restoring from PIM backup file.
I read that on the Updates section. I have a very recent Energy rom, though i have a sms order problem. It seems to be grouped by Sent & Received. Please help!!
If that explanation confuses you, I pretty much hope to have the SMS texting to be in chronological order, but ENERGY is glitchy on that point.. other than that, it is great!
Please post your question in the Energy ROm thread.
Thanks
