I did not have a client installed beforehand. i installed it after a fresh new flash of nrgz aug 22 rom after performing task 29. Its strange that im getting so many issues with all the htc messenging clients even nrgz. I have tried disabling xda uc. removing backed up registry entries. Hard reset countless times and tested other things. What happens is.. after someone sends me a sms and i reply in the htc messenger.. sense restarts itself. i wish i had the aug 18 rom saved on my computer. This new rom is driving me crazy.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zelendel:
I noticed that when I converted the cab to an ext that it changed it to manila people and gave me like 3 blank option when I hit menu in the sms tab. Any ideas??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
If you want to get back to a previous Energy ROM you can visit BeeGee ROM Mirror. I didn't see the August 18th build, but I just did a quick search. Here is the info from the Energy ROM thread:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scriller:
thank you so much, giving it a cook now...:D

EDIT:

-1) there isn't an "x"/close button...but over all it does work well, I can't seem to detect any speed gains though.

+2) the ablum button works too, on the one that came with the kitchen, the album button didn't work for me at all....

+3) sometimes after watching a video in the album that came with the kitchen scrolling would be a bit messed up where I'd have to swipe a couple of times on each item before it would move to the next, now that seems to be fixed in this album :D

-4)the letter weight in the buttons (menu and album) seems a bit too much
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
oh,damn. i just noticed i put the reg for manila people in the cab instead of messaging... whoops. heres the new cab:View attachment 386803
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zelendel:
I was just looking over the reg myself lol. Thanks again

UPDATE

Converted it to an ext and guess what still got 3 empty spots in the bottom of the menu, but it doesnt happen when I use the cab install
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
So... have i got a little surprise here.. I was working with O.a.T. on getting mms working on sprint with teh htc messaging client aaannnnnddd...... I did it. View attachment 386833 (im told im the first to figure it out)

after comparing registry entries between the stock sprint tp2 rom, the sprint picture messaging client and the htc messaging client, I figured out that the push router id (like a header id) that identifies what the message being pushed to the device is, is diffrent for sprint mms then standard mms.

standard mms: application/vnd.wap.mms-message;

sprint mms: ;x-wap-application:mms.ua

by redirecting that router id to the htc client, mms starts working! coupled with the correct client settings for cdma and agent and user id's the pictures that were received were the same size that were sent (it was set for 300k or below thou)

Soooooo... Feedback?

edit: arghh seems like it might have been premature.. while i did get the device to receive, it seems its still having an issue sending..... but i have some ideas..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zelendel:
Ok As I dont always like asking for help instead of finding out myself it seems that the options are in the manila_pages.xml I should be able to fix this by over writting with the old one or removing those entries yes?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] O.a.T.:
Pyrorob is the man! The sms/mms htc messaging client by pyrorob and the 2.5.2018 ported to vga by programatix all in one day! What could be better?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
yep, i just figured that out.. it's cause of the manila_pages.xml these three lines:

<DialogItem Name="GroupSending" Title="[[IDS_MESSAGING_GROUPSENDING]]"/>

<DialogItem Name="SMSSearching" Title="[[IDS_MESSAGING_SMSSEARCH]]"/>

<DialogItem Name="Mark All Read" Title="[[IDS_MESSAGING_MARKALLREAD]]"/>

group and search could be removed, its too bad mark all read isnt working... you could just replace the xml with one from a older package and it would fix it..

yeah it only did that when you cooked it cause the manila_pages.xml was supposed to go into \Windows\ManilaXml and i overlooked that..

i think you would have to cook in the newer mode9.dll to get those to work..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] soosoolhastam:
I love you man! ive been searching for a place to download old roms this entire day. I dont know what i was doing wrong.

edit: its unfortunate that site you mentioned only archives topaz roms. I have a HD2.. : (
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scriller:
I don't use cdma, but congrats!!!! I hope everyone who uses ur cab or settings gives credit where it's due. major help to the community. all sprint users should donate to you right this instant!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Hold on a bit, im uploading the 8/18 rom to 4shared for you.

here: Energy.Leo.23678.Sense2.5.Cookie.Aug.18.7z
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
yeah.. that would be nice :rolleyes:

ive kinda given up on the idea of making a buck from my work.. would be nice too since im out of work and and anything would be helpfull :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TKruzze:
This is probably self-explanatory, but I thought I'd ask to be certain. Am I correct in assuming that this .cab should be installed AFTER the main installer and its purpose is to configure your TMOUS phone for the T-Mobile network? Or, is this instead used to make MMS the default client?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
install after and its it just enters the settings to download mms using the htc client on tmobile
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AmzingSpiderman:
I just have a quick question. I just installed the cab for the 2018 build. And it runs just fine, up until I leave the messaging client, and it restarts all of Sense. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

I'm running the GTX Energy ROM updated August 22nd on a TMOUS HD2.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] brunoisa10:
really strange that you've not undestood my question , I explain the problem (well know by every SMS user till 6.5 )

when sms is in mode : Conversation

when I have more than 20 SMS with somebody : the display is lagging (30 second to be able to answer , 45 when 35 SMS and so on)

My asking was just about this point

is your cab available for french roms (040c language) ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
ah, ok now i understand you question.

as angeldeath pointed out awhile ago, this key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging\Harvey]

"MaxMessagesForOnePage"=dword:500

controls how many messages are shown at a time in the reading pane.

as you can see it states that its set to show 500 at a time there, you could lower it down to say, 100 or maybe 50 and that should speed the display time.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] caliban2:
that key only works in traditional mode.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
oh.. ok. well, then ya got me.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kevintmr:
Do these cabs work for sprint tp2? I installed fdsoft Task Manager and verified no messaging services were listed. I then installed latest HTC messaging cab from first post. I soft reset, then from Task Manager tried to start the messaging service with a "file not found" error????
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DatDereX1:
do you have to change mms settings with AT&T?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
soft reset again and go back to the task manager, scroll to the right and under status does it say started? oh, and your running a sense 2.5 rom yeah?

no, i dont believe so, auto connection setup should set the mms server settings appropriately, but you can also go to mms settings and check..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kevintmr:
No. After installation and a softreset the messaging service is stopped. I press and hold it to get its menu and choose to start it. Thats where I always get the error. Wondering if the app is GSM only and not CDMA??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cdub2499:
Thanks for the new update. I have one question. On the previous versions of the HTC messaging client, when in conversation mode, some sms were being sent to the wrong person even though it shows it went to the correct person. This is a known issue with the software and am curious if this version is the same. it usually seems to trigger when i have more than 500 or so sms in several different conversations.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
NEWS!

oh, i ddint realize you were on cdma.. ok, i think the error is due to the cabs being configured for gsm.

tell me what network your on and i might be able to provide a cab that sets it for cdma and the network you use.

im, not sure.. ive never even had anywhere close to 100 messages on my phone much less 500! so im not going to be able to test that. the only thing i can suggest is to try it, since htc doesnt release change logs with the software theres no way to know unless you look, eh?

AND BIG NEWS!

I figured out the trick to remove vip and password options from the main settings screen! the trick was staring me in the face the entire time!

I just had to delete the damn menu items, except it didnt dawn on me when i was looking at the menus to check if they had sub menus!, duuuhhh :)

im updating the main link for the newest one in a it as soon as im done testing!

Oh and check this, im playing around with skinning the client, hehe.

i already got a background image to load in settings and have been able to adjust text and background colors, but thats only due to the fact that those are controlled by xml files, the main screen seems to be entirely controlled by a dll so it may be more tricky..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cdub2499:
ok, it will see how it goes. I almost got into trouble with it sending messages to the wrong people if you know what I mean lol.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
well you could always send text messages to your self.. that way if you dont get them then youll knnow its not sending them to the right address.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Alright, i updated the main link for the latest client it now has the password and vip option removed from the settings menu i also went thru it and tided up some spelling and pronunciation in some of the text fields plus i noticed i overlooked a few menu items and those have been fixed.

And for those who dont want to re-download and install, heres a simple update file:

Messeging client 20173127 update 1.cab
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Meishe91:
This is going to sound incredibly "noob-ish" but I have looked and looked and haven't been able to find a definitive answer really. What exactly is this? Like I understand, I think anyways, that this is a HTC Messenger Client that was moddified by you, pyrorob, to fix some of the issues with it (if I'm not mistaken). But what exactly does it change and all? I am deeply sorry if some of this is wrong and even more sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, I just haven't been able to find it. Thanks for any info :)

This was actually talked about here and it seems that so far the only fix people can find is to store your contacts on your phone directly and not on a SIM card. That at least worked for me.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kevintmr:
I use Sprint
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
So for those peeps in france, i present to you: pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20173127_00_040C_FRENCH.cab

spent the past hour knocking it out and here you go!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Ok, well I have ben digging around the net looking for an answer to that and i think i have one, theres some steps involved besides just installing a cab or two so here goes:

first install the messaging client

after thats all done install this: pyrorob Sprint CDMA Messaging client settings TEST.cab

im 95% sure this will work with no problems.

Next, open up the htc messenger and go to (in the bottom right) Menu/Settings/Options/ (then bottom right again) Menu/MMS Server You should see sprint there, select it and go to where it says the server address, scroll all the way to the right of the address and right after the point where you see

"MDN=" put your 10 digit phone number after the =. Then make sure the Connect via: part is set for your data connection and exit back to the screen where it says sprint, then while "sprint" is selected, at the bottom right press menu and touch "set as default". press back, done and you should be done.

I dont have a cdma device to test so let me know how it goes!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hotty1177:
Not trusted

Hi Pyro,

i tried to install it in my HTC elfin after installing it softreset and when i open the sms client it says Not Trusted any idea?

thanks,
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
This is the latest sms/mms interface for sense 2.5 that htc has put out. each version has gotten better and better. i didnt bother putting any pics up cause most people that are looking for this know what it is

Heres a google image search:HTC Messaging client

The first four pictures are of it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
um, thats qvga yeah? i dont think it supports it. not to mention you pretty much should only install this on cooked roms that have the latest sense 2.5...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twobeaglesjtj:
Great Work!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
Well, sorry for that. I did a search for Leo's ROM mirror but it seems there isn't. On the thread of Energy ROM for Leo I only found some people has uploaded a couple of the old versions to sharing sites.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] samarain:
Last version of energy rom when people instal the Pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20181630.cab the sense always restart after send a message and try to return to home screen :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Maringer:
New EnergyROMs dated 24th August have just been uploaded.

From the thread, here's the changelog:

August 24th, 2010

* Finished and posted French ROMs

* Disabled automatic memory management (closing of open apps) for the Rhodium(s) and Imagio

* HTC GPS Tool updated

* Digital Compass updated (for the HD2)

* Fixed Twitter tab issues

* Fixed HTC messaging client issues (for people that install it via .cab)

* Fixed double and bold fonts for tab titles in Standard ROMs

I'd imagine that the line I have bolded might sort out the problems? No time to try it out myself at present!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] indagroove:
I was also able to receive but not send MMS.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
yeah.. i have an idea about that, that ill get to test tonight.. wasnt the issue previously that people could send and not receive? if thats so i just have to combine the two fixes..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mwalt2:
No, the issue has always been it will say it sends...but in actuality it doesn't do anything. Many false reports of it 'working' because it says it is sent. People don't follow through to see if a person actually receives it though.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] samarain:
thanks i will go try the new 1 to see :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
ahh. well.. seems like its a little tricker then i had hoped. so fully working on the receiving end but not so on the sending... sigh.

Oh, and i just tried the 8/24 energy rom and im getting that black screen on the messaging tab... hmph seems like its something in sense thats doing that.

also, heres a new client to test: pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20183325_00.cab
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zelendel:
Cool Installing now
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twobeaglesjtj:
Has anyone tried the settings I posted in post #363???? I can send and receive and yes when I send an mms, they do receive it...I just tested it again......Give it a try and let me know...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zelendel:
Will merge these posts in a sec to not clutter up the thread, working wonderfully, mms sent in seconds man it was fast as He**
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xavier11:
Tried twobeaglesjt settings for Verizon MMS and still only able to send and not receive. The section under edit connections where you add username and password actually makes it to where nothing can access my data connection.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stathis95194:
Just upgraded from:

pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20182814_00.cab

to:

pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20183325_00.cab

Upgrading went smoothly. Color Icon Pack is working great.

This new cab feels smoother on scrolling. I will continue testing and post my finding.

btw MMS is working just fine if i re-run the connections wizard.

Thanks pyrorob
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisrj28:
Im also getting the black screen using Energyrom, it happens with theGraf release of HTC messaging too. Wonder what the deal is.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
I was getting that on the 8/24 and was hoping it would go away on the 8/25, but instead after installing the htc client the whole messaging tab under a contacts details dissapears! which basically made messaging impossible!:confused:

I did solve it thou, after putting in this key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\XHammer\Manila_Message]

"Force"="manila_messaging.dll"

(i believe it was that one, i did put in a couple of others, bu that one seems the most likely)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisrj28:
Ok, so Im gonna flash 8/25 when I get home, do I need to create that reg key after installing the messaging (I usually have it run under XDA_UC) Did the black screen issue go away with 8/25 aftwerwards?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
well, install the client and see what happens with the tab.. if its gone try that key. and yes after that its working perfectly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twobeaglesjtj:
I did forget to mention that I also installed the Imnuts Threaded Verizon Arcsoft mms 5.2.12.62 cab...it can be located here...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7127816...Install that first then change your settings from post #363.........hope that helps.........
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisrj28:
Would you mind posting that reg entry for me, I can edit the reg but not too savvy on creating new entries.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xavier11:
Well installing that does allow me to download mms message. only problem is they dont show up in the conversation mode. I can see them in traditional mode but i am unable to open them. I searched the phone for the file name and cant find it anywhere on the phone either. I am not sure if there is a registry setting i need to change to automatically save the mms or not.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
View attachment 388311 just remove the .txt part

Appear to work fine on Taels latest rom

Much appreciated :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Just to let everyone know, i updated the HTC Messaging Client 1_8_20183325 and the energy rom taskbar icons.

the client had a couple of registry errors that i missed and i updated the energy rom icons to be fully compatible with the new versions (the new ones had a few extra icons that i was missing) and to fix some transparency errors.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] samand2005:
thanks alot.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scriller:
what are the reg changes geared towards? are they just general or was about manila? I just want to know if they apply to me and if I should recook the new one in. I don't use manila so I wanted to know. thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
well, i was missing a reg that directed a notification to the messagingnotification.dll,a notification reg key was missing in the notifications cpl and i had the wrong notification graphics assigned to 2 reg entrys, there all new or different keys then previous versions thats why i missed them, these are them: (you can just add them to your app.reg at the bottom)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] onesolo:
So pyrorob, NRG has put the HTCMessage_1_11_281_0 on his lastest rom, can you possible put it here??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DavidinCT:
This looks cool, I gota try it but, is the current build good for daily use or does it have lots of issues ?

Just need something dependable but, not crasy about the current app for text/picture msgs...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Look it up, HTC message is NOT the htc messaging client. Its an internal NON-user usable app that handles messages between apps. nothing to do with the client or sms, mms, texting, emails, phone calls or anything that you would use.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Um, well I and lots of others use the current build that i have up with no problems.. i wouldn't take it out of beta unless i was sure it works fine..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
Pyrorob latest Messaging Client is working great with Standard Energy ROM 23127 (August 28th). No special installation required.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Thanks for the info, good to hear.
