Tin Man Needs A New Carrier, Go To The "OZ"

Yeah, my theory was correct, it's Rogers network, plus Rogers don't have a agreement with microsoft to deliver Windows Live in the wm6 ROM, but I'm happy that you can still connect to Windows Live via wifi......! Go see the wizard in the "OZ", take the same route, Yellow Brick Road direct path and tell him you want a new carrier, take care guy! (Lol):D

Have you seen this thread?
[HTC Excalibur] xr1d:
yes i seen the thread before. but it still does not provide me with information i need. i want the actual oz messenger program not a plug in of it for the home screen.. thanks for the help though but thats not quite what i was looking for.. for any1 who might be able to help, i did manage to find the oz messenger cab file for cingulars blackjack. i did install it in the dash but for some reason i couldnot connect to it. it kept saying check the settings and try again. maybe its b/c it is configured to the at&t network? well i dunno what it might be but if anyone can help me get this cab to work on the dash, it will be greatly appreciated. o btw im running rogers s621 rom on my tmobile dash with the $6.99 tzones proxy. (might that be the reason y it wont connect?) but i do remember when i got my dash oz messenger did connect via the tzones proxy.. but hey wat do i know.. im just a noob trying to make my fone more enjoyable.. thanks in advance

Updates?

I am still having trouble running this software on my AT&T Tilt. It worked well for a few days but then it lost track of my messages. The friends still showed up but none of the conversations. Then it stopped receiving messages altogether except for the periodic garbled message from a long number. Any plans to release another update?

Thanks!

Extract oz messenger from original Tmobile dash wm6 rom

Hi guys, i wanted to know how to extract the ozmessenger cab file from the stock tmobile rom. Im trying to use the fast htc rom but it doesnt have the oz messenger app. I can use aim on the stock tmobile dash oz messenger. I just need to specifically get that cab file so i can install it in the htc rom or another rom. I need either an app that can extract the cab file or be pointed to a place where i can just download it. Thanks alot guys..BTW, this site ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Oh I am not sure you can do that because that was made especially for the Tmobile Rom...
[HTC Excalibur] merwin:
Smartphones do not contain cabs for the installed apps, it's all just included in the firmware pre-installed. You'd have to go through the registry and find all of the keys related to it, then find all of the files related to it, and either make a cab yourself or copy the registry customizations and files to the phone
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Well, I think that it is just a program that is ment to run with the Tmobile Rom only, not the HTC or the Rogers Rom...
[HTC Excalibur] nav1:
You can run it on any ROM. The program is intended to be used on T-Mo US net, but you can use it on any ROM if you can extract it.
[HTC Excalibur] caramelzappa:
This topic comes up almost every day. It's amazing no one has bothered to extract it yet.
[HTC Excalibur] IMSMS:
Happy New Year XDA members - I hope this new year will bring much joy and good health to everyone!

First things first - I was on long vacation - but my gmail did not set the auto vacation - so I guess everyone just thought I died or something.

The last builds on the IMSMS home site was the last stable revision. I am contemplating on continuing with this project since Microsoft is releasing Windows Mobile 6.1 due this february (or within the month). There are supposedly new "fixed" features - and of course, development api improved. The update will include a new SMS threading application - from the pictures seen, I will tell you it sucks. It's very generic and does not offer anything aside from just getting your messages threaded.

I am putting IMSMS on hold until WM6.1 is released - I don't know the # of users for IMSMS - but I do know there are many.

For new users, sprint mogul users, and others - please review the website's FAQ and HELP guide section - all the answers are there - I've received numerous emails asking the same questions: "how to fix mogul keyboard issue", etc. It's all in the FAQ/Help guides.

As for technical revisions, I will try to push out 1.1 with group send features soon. I am just getting back into the groove so it may be a bit longer.

I want to thank you all for the support - hope your holiday was grand and keep using your Windows Mobile devices - and also please email Microsoft WIndows Mobile team (look on the windows mobile website) and complain about how crappy the UI is. That's all I have to say - I'll be back later...

Quicksand/WB - I got your emails - thanks for your emails - hope your vacation was grand as well :)

[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
Thanks for everything IMSMS! I use the program on the daily and love it!
[HTC Excalibur] jxs714:
i think i found a solution

Hey, i believe if you download the oz messenger for at&t/cingular, install it on any rom, then get a registry program to rechange the network registry to tmobile's: http:\wirelessvillage.t-mobile.com:80 i believe it is. it should connect you to aim/yahoo/windows live if you have the 5.99 tmobileweb.
[HTC Excalibur] xr1d:

[HTC Excalibur] fiveohhh:
I just got everything installed and its working well, but I was in the settings and turned on notify other applications, and now it doesn't shut off:P It always notifies the default txtmsg system. is there someting I missing in turning this off? I downloaded the newest imsms from your site and using the hew HTC rom. I also have to put a + in front of my numbers for it to make it to the sender. the about says I have version 1.0b734, and it looks like the feature not to have this happen was added awhile ago. Any suggestions?

THanks
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
Uninstall and make sure you delete the IMSMS directory where the Data.dat file resides, then reinstall.
[HTC Excalibur] fiveohhh:
Thanks! That solved the default txt program problem, haven't been able to see if that helps solve the "+" in front of the number yet. I'll test taht tomorrow with some coworkers.
[HTC Excalibur] LuisMayito:
This is great cuz i ran out of my period time and the great thing of not having msn contacts in the phone.

I once erased these contacts from my phone's contacts list and when loging in msn i realized i had no msn contacs jejejeje, i was like DAMNNNNN
[HTC Excalibur] tndave:
Frustrating!!!

I love how IMSMS looks and works, but I'm having an issue that's annoying the crap out of me! I can send and receive text messages, but the only way I can see them in the chat log windo is if I go into the settings and select "refresh chat log". Then everything shows up. If I go to another contact, I have to do the same. If I go back to the first contact, I have to refresh it again or the screen will remain blank. Quite often I'll get a text from someone and I'll have to play a long game of going to and refreshing each contact individually to see who sent it and what it said!!

I've tried everything I can see and find in the settings but nothing works. I have the latest version, since I downloaded it today. My phone is an HTC Touch wunning WM6, not even a week old.

I've uninstalled and re-installed it countless times.

Anyone have any suggestions? As of right now it's uninstalled and unless I can get it working right I'm gonna have to leave it like that unfortunately. I really hope I can get it working because it looks like such a great product and everyone seems to say great things about it. Besides, the standard sms on the Touch leaves a lot to be desired!!
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
I am getting the same problem you have, also mine sometimes catches on both IMSMS and on the original phones SMS program which is annoying because it shows up on both. Is there any way to fix this or any recommendations.
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
There is a setting under preferences that allows the other sms notify other applications. uncheck it. Also check the tutorials on the website for the software.
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
Use cenotepad and navigate to \Windows\Start Menu\Messaging.lnk Edit it to show 32#"\Program Files\IMSMS\IMSMS.exe"

msinbox is the file the original program calls. I've seen that file in the registry but don't know how to map it to a different program.

I've asked about remapping the envelope button several times but never got any response.
[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
I like that, but that's still not what I'm referring to. The little bit on the homescreen that has all 3 messaging services and a number next to them. That shortcut on what would be the DESKTOP still leads to MSINBOX I believe.
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
I'm sorry i misunderstood. I've never seen that before. Do you mind posting a screenshot? I'm curious now.
[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
I use a different homescreen than the defaults, but I'm almost positive the same kind of thing is on the T-Mobile and Windows homescreens.
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
I looked at both home screens you mentioned and i dont see that. All I get is Text/Multimedia (0). I looked in the XML file, you can try to change the CLSID that is used for messaging to the one that's used for IMSMS.
[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
2 things. How do I do that and where is this CLSID listed?
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
You can open the xml file in notepad and scroll down to the sms section and replace the clsid with one from IMSMS (if it has one). The CLSIDs are found in HKEY_Classes_Root\CLSID it's a 32 character hexadecimal string. Some programs have CLSIDs associated with them. Get with DSO to find out if there's one for IMSMS.
[HTC Excalibur] tndave:
I already unchecked the setting in the preferences and spent a couple of hours reading tutorials....

Guess I'll just have to pass on this unless I hear some good news!
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
I don't know what to tell ya. You're one of a few that's having issues.

SMS Instant Messenger

I just upgraded to the new HTC Rom, and OZ Messenger is not included.

I NEED an IM program that uses SMS instead of Data.

Is there a way to get my old T-Mobile OZ Messenger back (extract it from the old T-Mobile ROM or something?) ?

Or, is there a way to get the PocketPC version of OZ Messenger to work on my Smartphone?

Or, is there another IM program that will work on my Dash that uses SMS?

Or, am I just screwed?

Please help..

thanks!!

Vibrate only

How can I make IMSMS vibrate when I receive a message and do nothing when sending a message? The closest I have come to this is switching to "Vibrate Only" (option 6 in the Menu), but then the phone vibrates when sending too. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Scott
[HTC Excalibur] Svoms:
I'm in the same boat
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
I asked the same question and DSO said something about APIs and things of that nature. In other words, it either vibrates both ways or it doesn't vibrate at all. SMS Chats vibrate feature works whenyou get an incoming message and doesn't vibrate when you send a message out.
[HTC Excalibur] traveldude:
Anyone have or know where I can find the tmo oz cab?
[HTC Excalibur] teh_lorax:
Okay, I'm totally at a loss here. I'm one of the TMobile Dash upgraders from WM5 to WM6 and IMSMS doesn't work for me and there is obviously a total disconnect as to what needs to get done. Not to complain, but the dev's faq page here has conflicting information in it. I don't think he understands the difference between a key and a value.

Can someone repost the exact fix that worked for them? I tried whats on the FAQ page and I tried what was listed in the first post here. Neither worked.

Edit: For those having this issue, don't pay attention to anything written on the other site or in the OPs post. Delete everything under the selected key. Or that's the only thing that worked for me anyway...

[HTC Excalibur] traveldude:
Few days later...bumping up to the top...any help on this?
[HTC Excalibur] jxs714:
This SOLUTION SHOULD work

Its gonna be a process but in my belief it SHOULD work...

1. Make sure you have the tmobile rom installed

2. Get a registry editor and look at all of the oz messenger registry settings. Write down all the info needed like the folder names and key settings.

3. Copy all of oz messenger files from application data, program files or where ever you see the folders involving oz messenger. All i know is you dont really need the oz messenger files in the windows folder. I dont remember where the exact location of the oz messnger folders are but you should find them amongst all the other folders besides the windows folder.

4. copy the folders to your pc

5. Now use another rom of choice like htc, rogers, or whatever else your using

6. Copy the folders of oz messenger in the exact locations on your new rom just like they were placed in the tmobile one.

7. Make a oz messenger shortcut where you like or just run it once. It should run.

8. Try to connect it with a username, you should get an communication error.

9. Go to the registry editor and there now should be a registry for oz communications after you run it first.

10.Registry edit and create the missing info that you should of have copied down somewhere on paper from step 2

11. Everything SHOULD work from there. X-D

I didnt fully test this though.

I thought about this because ive checked the registry myself before on the tmobile rom and saw the info, i then copied oz messenger files to my new rom. When i tried to run oz it gave me communication error so. I then went to registry on the new rom and i saw some info that was missing comparing to the tmobile rom's. From there i gave up cause i didnt care, lolz. I just used Palringo instead because its faster X-D.

I would have done it for you guys and put it in a zip folder with a tutorial but i have my phone setup with alot of important data and really dont want to restart my phone from scratch again.

Tell me if it works! If it did then thumbs up soldier! lolz
[HTC Excalibur] grim1234:
Here is the registry info for OZ Communications using T-Mobile Rogers, .cab taken from Cingular site... This is useless, but I appears we could easily edit TData with the right fields...

http://www.breaksoft.com/Blog/Utilities/2005/1/Mobile_Registry_Editor.aspx

I would greatly appreciate it if someone with the T-Mobile ROM and working OZ Instant Messenger and could use that ^ registry editor and export [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\OZ Communications]

I'll make us all a .reg file and get this thing working again, for all of us using the T-Zones proxy.

Disabling Contact Ringtones

Anyone else have a problem with disabling contact ringtones? Every time I uncheck the box, the program will tell me to save/restart, and when I do, the box is checked again.

The only way to keep it disabled is to not restart the program, and manually uncheck it each time I launch the program. Meanwhile, other settings don't seem to revert like this. I have a feeling I'm missing something.

I'm running on a upgraded WM6 Dash.

Does Rogers ROM include OZ Messenger?

Hi all, I've searched the forum (maybe not thorough enough), but can anyone verify if the Rogers ROM includes OZ Messenger?

Was checking to see if smartphone version was posted yet.

The reason I am looking for OZ is on t-mobile it uses SMS so I am constantly connected.

Unless I am wrong, good chance, most of the other programs out there use data connection, which is dropped on the dash when making a phone call, so with OZ I am always connected.
[HTC Excalibur] Shining Light:
:eek:

The only people that would use this program is the one that is paying for unlimited txt or else its gonna cost them.

There has to be a prog out there that uses data and doesn't disconnect when making/receiving a call.
[HTC Excalibur] .PoNeH:
I have unlimited texting and I still wouldn't use this program. For some reason, it creates a new group in my with the same SNs and it doesn't include all the contacts.
