Hello guys
Does the HTC Mozart have a maximum capacity for conversation size?
I have just started receiving messages from the person I text the most (probably a few hundred texts a month for 9 months) that appear at the top as normal but when entering the conversation it shows the previous message she sent. I also does not add my texts on at the end of the conversation.
The phone has plenty of storage space (nearly 2gb free) so the only other thing (unless the phone is on the blink must be it can only handle conversations of a certain size?
Secondly, hundreds have asked but has anyone found a way of removing and saving texts/conversations off the phone with paying a fortune for developer access. Even removing the core file or making a copy of it through a PC would be handy? then I can delete texts in the knowledge I have the atleast back up in a file I cannot access

Hi guys, I am looking for some way (software ?), that enables the XDA/Qtek to send and receive SMS picture messages (EMS) -not MMS- using only the GSM network and not the internet, and that is, of course, a stand alone function, I mean by this without having to use a Nokia GSM phone or any other GSM phone.
Thanks for your help
All you really need is an app that associates a particular SMS string with a particular picture. You'd then install this app to both devices - sender and reciever.
You'd open you app, pick a picture and hit send. The app would then send an SMS string, say, 'picture1' via SMS to the receiving xda. That unit would have the app running that would pick up the SMS 'picture1' and, having associated that string with the picture you want (presumably picture #1, for the sake of argument) will display that picture.
That's effectively all EMS does on other handsets (not quite, but effectively) - that's why you can't usually see EMS sent between different devices. Different devices from different manufacturers set up the (proprietary) EMS in different ways.
Try the Philips C12 to the Nokia 7650, for example, then you'll see what I mean.
Tekflow - I think you're talking about EMS - ie the SMS extension 2bit picture format made popular by Nokia phones. I quite miss this, as most of my friends have Nokias, and I often used to send EMSs to them with my 9210.
I've looked into this myself a bit for PPC/PE - the situation's not too good:
Sending is relatively easy, just build the SMS in the correct format and send it out, however receiving it is a nightmare.
Unfortunately, Microsoft have made a complete mess of SMS receiving functionality on the PPC/PE OS, only one single application can ever have the SMS handle open for receive at any one time for a given message protocol (and these are not very fine grained basically Text, Notification, WDP, WCMP, Status and Raw).
This application by default is the SMS handling application of the PocketPC/PE. So basically, you can't use it otherwise you loose the default handling.
On Symbian, it's sooo much easier. There's a 'chain' of receivers, so you just register for a particular message, scan it, and if you don't want to process it, you just pass it on to the next application in the handler chain.
It might be possible to completely rebuild the SMS handling application from scratch, get rid of the default handler, and replace it with your own, however there's quite a lot going on under the surface with SMS handling, so this would be extremely difficult.
One thing you could try is getting the messages after they have been received and placed in the inbox using MAPI. I'm not sure if this would work, as IMHO MAPI is a hopeless API too, and propably would bletch at a SMS type that wasn't plain text. It's worth investigating though.
There are two EMS softs for Pocket PC but not for the "Phone Edition".
These softs used AT commands instead of RIL API.
But as with last ROM it is possible to have access to internal modem with AT commands, these softs should work now.

But EzOS (developer of EzWAP 2.5 MMS) proposes MobyKit, a library to develop SMS/EMS/MMS :

Anyone knows if there is a possibility to send and receive picture messages (EMS, not MMS) using XDA II ? All the available software I found are not compatible with Pocket PC Phone Edition.
I'm looking for the same as well.
Worse still, the PPC or WM2003 default SMS software does not even NOTIFY or do anything when it received an EMS message. In fact, it did nothing .. I suspect it ignored anything apart from SMS, it didn't even store ANYTHING from an EMS. Some normal phones at least receive the EMS but display garbage on SMS, on Xda II -- zilch !!! NOTHING. Try it.
Smart GSM
Guys, I think Smart GSM is the solution. Try it and let me know the results.

ems 4 qtek 1010
do this program work for pocket pc phone edition like qtek 1010 (xda)?
did anyone send or receive a EMS successfully ?
Hi I have WM2003SE upgraded from 2002 on my SX56. In the Pocket Outlook application all my e-mails synced from the computer are truncated really really early like all I would be able to read was the greeting (Dear Jimmy) then it would say Message truncated tap edit mark for download to get remaining portion. I think it might be because the ROM Image took up so much memory I'm running out or maybe theres a setting to control the limit of size of the messages. But I have put in an SD card with more than enough space for the messages. Any help would be appreciated.
Anyone?
I'm still having the problem. I mean what if every single one of ur messages just came with the first half and u had to press a button each time then sync it just to get the other half? Wouldn't that annoy you?
Okay everyone
Well I figured out the problem myself. I went into the activesync settings for e-mail (outlook) and there was all the setting right there limit email size and include attachements!
I have no limits on my SMS messages (cause I'm a packrat), yet every time I open the messaging application it asks me if I'd like to set limits on conversations. I select "no limits" every time, but it still pops up every time.
Haven't seen this posted anywhere, so am I the only one?
Are you using the default messaging app? It sounds like caused by a 3rd party app setting or some kind of data restriction that you've put on it.
And you do have unlimited text right? Check your t-mo myaccount app to see if you've put the alert on.
I tried to ask the same thing. Nothing yet.

This is only an issue for extreme SMS packrats....
In the message app settings you can disable the auto deletion of messages that run past the set cap (defaults are 200 for sms, 20 for mms). So, disable deletion and increase the cap.
The SMS setting apparently has a hard cap at 5000. If that isn't enough ...well.....although that not being enough would normally entice me to make semi sarcastic remarks about hobbies, spare time, and the relative power of ones sphincter muscles, there are at least apps that can backup your sms threads for you.
SMSBackup for instance will let you backup SMS threads to your gmail acct. Since you can always access your gmail acct from your phone, this should be as good as packratting every friggin text directly on your phone. If you need to remind someone of what they said to you 7996 messages ago, sheerly for the "told you so factor" this can work. A bit creepy, but this can work!
And this is but one of many apps to back up SMS....
Consider the hard limit a feature, and backup your SMS to get them off your phone. That's my two cents...
Thank you. That's a great approach to this problem. It solves it for me.
Does anyone know how to change the SMS contact limit with AT&T. I created a few groups of friends and family to send a quick message out to. Groups are limited to twenty which would work for some groups just fine but when I send an SMS text out, I get an error message saying your carrier limits sms texts to 10 contacts at one time.
This has got to be a setting somewhere since I was able to do this all day long on my WM6.5 device. I even had a group of nearly 100 and had no trouble. Network is network so my thinking is this is a setting somewhere.
Ideas?
Got a lot of views on this but no one has been able to add anything. Should this get moved to WP General or WP Q & A?
Are you sure it's just with ATT and not an O/S limit? i think it's so you don't spam.
I have got to think that any carrier can tell if someone is spamming versus communicating with a group of people. In my case it was for someone that ended up in the hospital.
Do you have any idea how many calls and separate texts you'd have to send or make if you didn't have somethingng like this set up? Not asking a dumb question but more like an obvious one.
I am one of the few I bet that doesn't have unlimited text's and I would be willing to pay for my overage if that happens for the comfort of texting to a group that needs this communication.
Let's face it, someone can create an app to loop through a distribution list and fire off a text msg and loop to the next contact in the list and fire it again. Not looking for performance but convenience.
At some point I need to stop comparing WP to WM6.5 and just get over it.
I'm replying to an old thread ; hoping this generates a fresh look at an old problem:
I have an unlocked AT&T-branded Samsung GS4 (SGH-i337) operating on the Cricket network. I created a new contacts group "Buddies" consisting of 15 people in my Contacts. However, when I try to send an SMS text to this Buddies group, the stock Messaging app enforces a limit whereby I'm allowed to select and send the SMS to a max of 10 people from my Buddies group. This 10-person limit has been around for several years, so I'm wondering if anyone has found a simple/easy way to remove or adjust this 10-person group sms limit?
Interestingly, I also have an unlocked Verizon-branded GS4 (SCH-i545), and its stock Messaging app allows me to send an SMS to as many as 20 people from an established Group of contacts.
As a partial solution to the 10-person limit on my ATT GS4, is it technically feasible that I could simply copy/extract the Verizon Messaging app, then import and use that Verizon Messaging .apk on my ATT GS4 in order to increase the person limit to 20? Sounds simple, which probably means it's too easy to be true.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Prevail the model number is SPH-M820-BST and I am having some serious problems with my phones ability to copy SMS text messages to my computer or send them to my e-mail. I am having some problems with my land lord and I am trying to get a record of the text messages that she sent me but they are not copying properly, all of the messages copy except for a couple of really long important ones that she sent.
These are the programs that I have tried so far, SMS to text, Super Backup, SMS Backup+ (e-mailed to my gmail), SMS backup & restore. All of these programs have the exact same problem where they copy most of my texts except for a couple of the same really long ones that she sent. One thing I noticed is that for some reason my text messages are usually limited to 200 max per contact but for her its now at 207.
These text messages are really important for me to get my security deposit back and chances are I'm going to have to use them in small claims. I've tried everything to no avail, maybe I should use screen capture software? Or maybe even put my phone into a photo copy machine?
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Does anyone know of any screen capture software I could use?
