Whoa. Where do I start?

Yes. The first box in the third tab. It should be checked.

Yes, you did something wrong. You are trying to set up MMSLite using registry keys for other programs. Do the following:

Uninstall MMSLite

Uninstall MMS Composer (you do not need this software at all)

Softreset

Delete all registry entries containing Arcsoft

Softreset

Create a new connection with the following information:

Name: MMS

Modem: Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)

Access point name: mailwebservice.vodafone.ne.jp

User name: vodafonelive

Password: qceffknarlurqgbl​

Install MMSLite (Build 301 for WM6.0, build 303 for 6.1)

Set up MMSLite options with the following information:

First tab: put a check next to MMS (this option allows you to choose the connection you use). Make no other changes to this first tab

Second tab: First two boxes should be http://mms, then 80. In the second two boxes input vfkkmmsproxy.vodafone.ne.jp, then 8080. Below the lowest box are three buttons. Press the furthest left button. A new window will pop up. In the top box input V904SH. In the bottom input Vodafone/1.0/V904SH/SHJ001 Browser/VF-NetFront/3.3 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1

Third tab: Check the first box.

Click ok. You should be able to send and receive. Send an email to yourself to be sure.​

MMSLite does not need MMS Composer or MMSResender. Uninstall these and/or delete them from your system.

Shouldn't matter.

As nothing has been added to this thread for a while, I assume it's confirmed now that WM 6.1 does work with MMSLite. I am asking because I am getting a Blackstone and want use it with Softbank subscription.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Yep. It has proven solid on both my Hermes and Athena on multiple ROMs. I will change the thread title to reflect this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chainbolt:
It does not work for me. I tried it twice. I can receive messages, but I cannot send. :( What might be the problem?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Well, if you want to trade me your Blackstone for my old Hermes or Athena... I'm sure it works with them. :p

Seriously though, two things to check are

1) make sure you are trying to send to a email address (something with an @) It does not send or reply to phone numbers.

2) double check your settings and connection configuration. They are complicated and easy to mess up.

By the way, what happens when you try to send? Is there an error? How about connecting to SB data connection? Any problems with that?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chainbolt:
I could pinpoint the problem:

In "connections", I have one connection called "Internet". Within that I have one called "MMS" created for MMSLite, and another called "SoftBank" created with the cab you kindly provided. The problem is that when I check "SoftBank" I get a GPRS connection for the browser and I can receive MMS messages, but I cannot send MMS messages. When I check the "MMS" connection, I can send and receive MMS messages, but I get no connection for the browser.

:confused:

By the way thank you very much for your help.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
So... I guess the Blackstone for Hermes trade is off then? :D Glad it worked out.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chainbolt:
:D

Actually not. I know where the problem is, but I don't know how to solve it. I still don't know how to set up the MMS connection so that it does not conflict with the OpenSoftbank connection.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GregTHEnewGUY:
Need assistance

I just got the X05HT and i do not know any Japanese... except for a little Hiragana... anyways I downloaded SelMUI version 2.2 (same as CE-Star) which turns my UI into english... it's great but I can no longer use Softbank SMS or S!Mail, get into my settings...or some applications...unless i switch back to japanese which has to soft reset everytime I switch. I really need SMS and SMail... i can deal with the rest.... what can i do is there a tweak anywere or am i Stuck...PLEASE HELP!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Wow, talk about some niche software... I don't know exactly how that SelMUI works, but I find it hard to trust anything which disables SMS - as it is part of the ROM. I can understand the program not being able to translate the Softbank proprietary SMS/MMS software, but you should still be able to SMS from the regular messaging program.

Anyway, MMSLite is in Japanese, so it isn't going to be a good answer for you if you don't read Japanese. Two avenues you might explore:

1) The quick fix would be to search your Programs and Windows folders for the .exe file for the Softbank proprietary mail program. It should still be there, but it is questionable whether it will work or not as SelMUI may have broken it.

2) A similar fix would be to install MMSLite, go through the directions for getting it running contained in this thread. But frankly, you won't see much added functionality.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chainbolt:
I am still not sure, I did this in the right way, as I can still not send anything, only receive.

Is this under "manage existing connections", and then set up a new nextwork, or is it a new "modem connection" under the existing "Internet" connection?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Sorry, I didn't see your previous post.

I always "Add a new modem connection" under the Internet section of the main Connections menu: i.e. Start>Settings>Connections>Connections then "Add a new modem connection".

Make sure you name this something memorable (mine is MMS) and make sure you have MMSLite set to use this connection in the MMSLite options.

Also, this probably doesn't have any connection, but I also always go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks>Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:Internet>Edit then I choose the Softbank connection rather than the MMS connection or Auto pick.

I can see and recieve SMS through touch 3D but i can't access the folder or send out.... anything does this help any.... when i change the english UI it does say cprog.exe isn't working. is there anyway to get it to work when i change it to english?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
So the SMS account is there, somewhere... Don't you have a Messaging program in your Programs folder? If not, try going into the Windows folder using File Explorer and tapping tmail.exe. That should open your Messaging program, then by tapping right or left you should be able to access the SMS account.

cprog.exe is your dialer, and you probably want that to work. But no, I don't know how to get that to work. My advice is to post your problem in the Questions and Answers section and then PM me a link to it. That way you will get more eyes looking at your problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GregTHEnewGUY:
When i tapped tmail.exe i was sent to my outlook... I was already able to connect to that one but the email i can't get into is the S!mail and SMS folders.....? what program accesses contact info?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Heard the scoop?

I have been hearing rumblingsabout a new version of Arcsoft that is able to handle S!Mail which is included in the X04ht and X05HT (Diamond and Diamond Pro) OEM ROMs.

I have also heard that someone (Dutty maybe?) cooked a ROM with an Arcsoft which was able to handle S!Mail, but I can't find that info again for the life of me.

I thought anyone following this thread might want to jump in and/or help out on this thread (same as the first link).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] supermouse72:
Correction in password (¿maybe?)

Hi. I was trying to configure MMSLite according to your instruction and was always getting "Error Synchronizing". Then I went yo check your thread about flat-rate and tried to use the password indicated there (actually in the links you suggest there) and it worked.

Then I have build the connection like this:

Name: MMS

Modem: Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)

Access point name: open.softbank.ne.jp

User name: opensoftbank

Password: ****************​

Maybe the password you suggested is not for this connection.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Well, I am still getting my S!Mail through the old connection so I think it still works. I have a feeling I would have heard about it before if it didn't work.

Still, the flatrate connection works as well, so I'm glad that worked out for you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] supermouse72:
First, let me say that I'm very thankful for all the information you shared about this. Helped a lot.

Then, I think that maybe the problem was just on the writing of that post. Checking previous posts, I realized that, on that post only, you specified the info for the flat-rate connection, but with the password of the old connection. I think that things got a little mixed up. But anyway, I also think that both connections should work.

Thanks again.

so what is the password? i have an ATT tilt, sim unlocked. i installed the mmslite 303. trying to use the mms on softbank network. im pretty sure i have everything correct. but still get some message when trying to send an mms message. my phone doesnt support the Japanese, so it is pretty interesting. the last tab in the mms options is all blocks for me, it has a bunch of boxes i can check but not sure what they are. so im sure ive messed something up, but just messing with things trying to figure it out.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
I think older versions of MMSLite required Japanese fonts to be installed. I don't know about this version though, anyone else?

To check your settings.

This link has pictures. It is in Japanese, but you don't really need to understand what is written there. Just look a the pictures and make your settings match those. The password isn't written on that site, it is qceffknarlurqgbl .

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Sebaschan:
hi guys,

Im living in Japan at the moment and struggle to get my german x04ht working with s!mail. I got a prepaid sim card (only stay here for half a year) but trying to use MMS lite brought me no luck.

I tried various settings of the proxy and connection settings, and also tripple checked the MMSlite settings.

All I get when sending an MMS is a notice that it couldnt be send and will be resend in 2 min if not directly. It seems as if I cant connect to the softbank network.

Im pretty sure I didn't misconfigure anything, so I'm wondering if it may be due to my german rom or the prepaid card (no internet package). I was also thinking about installing a Japanese rom, but since this would be the first time installing a new rom, I'm a bit afraid of that.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
I've never had a prepaid sim card from softbank, but I am pretty sure you need the basic 315 yen internet package to get s!mail.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonidekohlanta:
Hello everyone, long time no see.

I bought a prepaid phone when my girlfriend came to japan, and with the original phone and the original card, you can send message (sms or mms), but cannot access internet. And you don't have to (cannot) pay the 315yen basic package.

So I think MMSLite's magic thing is to create a new connection to internet, but as prepaid card cannot use internet, I think it is not possible to use MMSLite method.

I never tested the Prepaid card in my X01HT (blame on me), but I think you're limited to sms in this case.

Hope it helped.

Larsuck:

thanks for posting the info - I installed MMSLite1.1.303 on my Sony Xperia WM 6.1 and now I can receive S!Mail

Sending, however, is still impossible.

I think my experience is very similar to what Sebaschan is describing.

I dont understand Japanese, but i wonder if my phone is missing that link:

Vodafone/1.0/V904SH/SHJ001 Browser/VF-NetFront/3.3 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1

is that a file or something that is supposed to be on my phone for sending to work?

when i click "send", the phone definitely tries to connect, a few seconds pass, then a message in Japanese comes up, with 3 options "Ok", "No", "Cancel".

Clicking OK makes the message to re-appear after a few minutes, "No" or "Cancel" basically cancel sending the message.

Is there a way to send S!Mail from a non-Softbank phone like my Xperia?

Also, i have to say, I did not edit my registry, as some posts here sugesst. Maybe that is the reason? What are those registry edits for anyway?

Thanks!

I've never bothered to get MMS working on my Tytn II on Softbank before, but today I tried and have ended up with not being able to get it to work correctly.

I can receive the first few kb of an MMS, then I get prompted to "Get the rest of this message". I click that, it changes to "Message will be downloaded the next time you connect and download email", it connects, briefly flashes "Loading message" then switches back to "Get the rest of this message" with no download done.

Sending emails to addresses prompts me with the "メッセージの送信に失敗しました" asking me to retry or cancel.

I have a 6.1 ROM.

I have MMSLite 1.1 Build 303

I followed all the settings on this page, including creating a new network for the MMS modem connection, and getting the modem connection password of qceffknarlurqgbl.

http://blogs.shintak.info/articles/MMSLite11.aspx

(reading Japanese helps)

user agent name: V904SH

User Agent: Vodafone/1.0/V904SH/SHJ001 Browser/VF-NetFront/3.3 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1

I even tried the gateway as sbmmsproxy.softbank.ne.jp but received the same result.

Originally I typed all the settings out but after many retries my current settings are all copied and pasted from text. I can actually reach google connecting to both the Softbank flat-rate connection and the VFJP MMS connection... this means that the modem connection username and password are correct, right?

Any ideas anyone?

Edit:

Well I fixed it, either by changing my network adaptor to "This Adaptor connects to: The Internet" away from "Work" (I have no idea how it ended up that way - I didn't do it) or by going though all my adaptors and changing all the address information to DHCP. I'm pretty sure it was the former. Anyway it works now.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Jed D`Lagged:
Actually, it turns out that whenever I have static information in my Wireless network adapter, it uses that information whenever it tries to connect to send an MMS. If I DHCP all that info, it works as normal. If I immediately reinsert those static values, I can still send MMS until I reboot my phone, in which case it returns to using those details when connecting for an MMS. I have a Tytn II WM 6.1. Can anyone else confirm this for me?

Prepaid USIM MMS?

Just seeing if anyone else has gotten farther than I have using a Softbank _PREPAID_ USIM (which took no less than 4 stores before the people working there even ADMITTED that they sell them). Its a 'white' prepaid USIM card. You can buy them. Its a super hassle, though (or was for me). But that's only the start!

Voice of course works fine. As does SMS. As anyone who lives in Japan knows this is basically useless as everyone uses MMS.

I keep trying all these passwords and gateway combos .. I can see the phone connects to the data service but have never, ever, gotten Internet or MMS to work. I've spend easily 6+ hours trying combos so far: reg hacks, user/passwords/gateways/etc. (Yes, I've activated mail via the 1400 menu for 300 yen/month).

Obviously I think the issue is that the access point/gateway/proxy/server stuff is different for the prepaid SIMs vs. the post pay cards, and it seems like nobody has really 'gotten' into those yet.

Anyone? Please? I swear, I'm so pissed that this is such a big freaking deal. I feel like its just 2 sets of authentication server/user/passwords that I need, and it'll all work... but of course Softbank won't give it to me ... And that is stupid because I am paying to use it! I keep hoping there is some magic combo that is already out there, and I just haven't hit it yet.

Anyway ...

I've got a Touch Pro (unlocked/OEM), which, because its unlocked, wasn't cheap. Its also a nice phone, and functionally way better than almost any Nintendo-DS-like mobile they have her IMHO. I'm in Japan for 2-3 months so I want to use my phone as renting a phone is a total rip off. I'm considering having my friend get a contract USIM now (which is absurd) and just paying it off, even though I'll be gone for 85% of its term. It would be cheaper than renting a phone (having done that already for a few months), and I'd still get to use my phone, presuming the post pay SIM works.

Anyone got any ideas or alternatives? I just want MMS and cripes maybe Internet? Is that really too much to ask ...

Probably :P

Softbank Prepaid USIM -- VOICE AND MMS WORKING

SUGOI!!!!!!!!!!!

As you can see from the subject I got MMS at least working on the prepaid Softbank USIM!!!

Big thanks to BeeGee who gave me hope when I had all but given up.

My two issues were: I had a typo in my MMSLite header (Vodaphone vs Vodafone). You'd think working as a sysadmin I would have caught that.

I've reconfigured my phone a zillion times, so I think that might have only been a mistake in my last attempt. I have the APN password memorized to give you an idea on how many times I've done this.

BeeGee also detailed this procedure to me:

Open the settings on your phone.

Goto Connections Tab

Goto Advanced Networking.

Goto GPRS tab.

Click on it, select PAP authentification, click ok.

To be sure that the settings are active, softreset your phone.

I had to flip to CHAP, reset and then back to PAP and reset.

I have no idea if this was the actual issue originally or the typo, too many variables.

But overall I want to be clear: IT IS ENTIRELY possible to get at least Voice, SMS and most importantly MMS with a Softbank prepaid USIM card. The prepaid gateway info is slightly different from the flat or unlimited data plans.

I realize I'm probably mostly talking to myself, but I'm posting this in the hopes that someone else sees/googles this and doesn't give up in the Face of Softbanks shenanigans.

Tomorrow I go into the Softbank store to have them put my USIM into one of their demo phones so I can use the Y!Mobile site to change my email address -and also to make them s**t themselves when I show them I have MMS working despite their doom-saying. I am looking forward to that.

I'm also now determined to get data/Internet working as well and will post here when/if I do.
