Messaging Client version 1.8 Build 2016.xxx is pre-installed in the NhatHoa ROM I'm using, so it think the issue with the service in your new Messaging Client is completely solved.

The other issue is still there, because at the new Messaging Client Settings the "Sending Network" option is set to "Ask me" for SMS and MMS and this option is gray out so it can't be changed.

When I tried to send a SMS, the Messaging Client shows a window to select the "Sending Network" which shows three options: C - No operator, G - No operator, Cancel.

I've been selecting G - No operator and the SMS is send without problems.

By the way, my phone is connected through GSM to my cellular provider, called ICE.

What do you think pyrorob?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
ok, i assume you have a world phone tp2? thats both cdma and gsm? cause thats what the c and the g are for..

now the only line in the reg that i could see that could relate to this issue is here: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\Messaging\Network]

"SMSPreferredNetwork"=dword:00000002

since theres no way for me to test the values and what effect they would have you might want to try changing it to 0 or 1 and seeing what the effects are.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
It worked! I found [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\Messaging\Network] "SMSPreferredNetwork" was set to 0 (dword:00000000), so I first changed to 1 and this set the "Sending Network" to CDMA at SMS Settings, so I changed to 2 and this set the "Sending Network" to GSM at SMS Settings.

I guess it will work the same on MMS, but this service is not available at my cellular provider for my phone, so there's not need to fix it.

Thanks pyrorob!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
By the way. So far, on this new Messaging Client I haven't seen the weird behavior of previous builds, because its memory usage doesn't increase suddenly and for no particular reason and also its CPU usage doesn't increase suddenly and for no particular reason, too.

Actually, CPU usage seems to stay at zero when there's no messaging traffic.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
cool, glad its working good.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] slackersink:
It was a big thing with th_graf's cabs, but it seemed to me like it only affected tmous users. Every picture that was texted was just a tiny preview version, not the full size. From what I've read it wasn't fixed, just kind of not talked about now. I'm a bit cautious since I've had to hard reset a couple times because of it. I think I may have tried your first cab too, but it was a while ago I'm not sure.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
oh, you meant as in "5KB" as in the size of the file.. you had put down 5k which i was confused with cause it seemed like you were talking about something to do with 5000..

ok, well, using this cab, i sent myself a photo i took with the camera on my hd2, while it got sent out at 600KB (which is the size it was originally) it gets received at 72KB, which is because of tmobile. it seems while they have a maximum outgoing cap of 1024kB (i think) they resize the incoming picture for mms to under 75KB, now i have seen on other threads that this only happens to mms, if your were to send out the file to an email address using the messaging client, it would be received at the size it was originally sent at. to me it seems tmo needs to update there systems to resize to a higher size..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] madnish30:
Pyrob, you will be informed if anything regarding your work is reported or under dispute.

Till then feel free to post whatever you need too.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
It just happened that the registry settings form "SMSPreferredNetwork" and "MMSPreferredNetwork" changed automatically back to 0, which seems to mean "Ask me".

I manually changed them back to 2, but after a while they went automatically back again to 0.

What can be happening pyrorob?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
im not sure, im thinking it might be something outside of the messaging client causing that issue..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] brunoisa10:
hi pyrorob

is your cab fixing the problem on Diamond2 (WVGA) SMS when in conversation mode there is many SMS ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
what? i dont know, i dont even know what your talking about.. try it and find out..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] b16b:
hi my friend do you have also :

*disable SMS Sent NotiFIcation?

*Fixed The VIP/Password Managment bug appering under "Options" in Non-Secure mode?

Shutting off voicemail texts

How do I shut off receiving a text every time I get a voicemail??? Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
let me guess... you have tmobile? and you have the visual voice mail service activated? and you know that uses txt messages with the header "129" to transfer data about voice mails.. so either cancel your vvm service or install the vvm app:

Tmobile Visual VoiceMail 1_1_1_0_15_01.cab
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bnm7bnm:
will this work on sense 2.1 or its only for 2.5?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Its only for 2.5
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jfarhat:
Hey Pyrorob,

This is working great, I am using NRG ROM and I did not have to disable the messaging service (I could not find it in the service tab), but everything still installed correctly and is functioning perfectly.

There is only one issue, I am on T-Mobile and I can only send 1024KB MMS file size. When I try to send anything larger than 1MB it will try to send it and then notify me it could not be sent. Is there a way to auto resize ONLY photos/files that are larger then 1MB down to the 1MB limit? with the Windows messaging version that comes on NRG ROM, it does on auto (300KB size limit, even though T-mobile lets you sent to other t-mobile numbers up to 1024KB, AT&T 400 KB, etc...). Please let me know, thank you for all your hard work on this!

How do I shut off receiving a text every time I get a voicemail??? I have Verizon Wireless and no subscription to visual voicemail?? Any other ideas??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tenspeed:
so i installed your hd2 setting cab and i got the robot voice thing and mms was not able to send and receive, so i uninstalled it and everything is fine so far, ill kep u updated. so something might be wrong with the hd2 setting cab
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Nope, nothing wrong with it, all the settings in it are FROM the stock tmo rom, the only thing is that the acdb file is from an earlier rom cause i found the newer one to cause the cpu to overheat and lock the phone..

Im getting tired of trying to fix issues where there shouldnt be any.. look, if you want to use apps that are from the newest devices, then make sure the packages on your device are up to date! and by that i mean, LOAD A CUSTOM ROM/ *BAM* 95% of these issues gone.

oh your on verizon... well after

SEARCHING

i found that its a common issue with verizon and there doesn't seem to be a common consensus on how to fix it. now im looking into the verizon rom for the tp2 to see if theres a visual voice mail app and if there is that or a different solution, ill make you a cab.

yeah on energy roms there is no sms client installed besides the winmo stock one, so you just install the cab and thats it, now to adjust outgoing mms size you need to go to the mms options and adjust the size to 1024 settings/options/menu/mms server/(mms server name)/ "message size limit"
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Heres that verizon visual voicemail cab i mentioned:

pyrorob VZW_VisualVoiceMail_1_1_12_11.cab

If that doesnt work, i guess ill make a verzion oem settings cab which would have the network, mms, location,etc. settings from the oem rom.

Thanks alot for this :)

but for some reason, I dont get those coloured commands at the bottom of my sms D:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Did you happen to look at the first post?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jfarhat:
Thank Pyrorob, that worked great, it now only resizes file over 1MB and leaves files under 1MB size alone. Great work and thanks again for the help!

Anybody can tell me where I can find the MMS server configuration for my provider? At the homepage of my provider I have some sample configuration, but the won't match to the configuration of this client.

I'm customer of o2 germany :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] carhigh:
Love the icons :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
i believe its:

ip address: 195.182.114.52

port:8002 or 8080?

server address: http://10.81.0.7

connect via: (your data connection name)

wap ver: wap 2.0

i think its that, i haven't found a page that said specific settings, its strange cause the use different ports for both.. you might want to switch around the ip and server address's if it still doesnt work.

Has anyone tested Seven Beta to see if the newest htc messaging causes it to crash on startup still. It's been that way since 2015 version and of course Seven has no fix as this isn't part of any official rom they support.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cabello80:
a little help please

Followed directions to the T, with no positive results.

What I do go get is, after install and reboot, the message client doesn't open at all.

Tried with Energy Titanium on HD2 (TMOUS)

ChuckyDroid HD2 (TMOUS)

Elegencia HD2 (TMOUS)

Any suggestions?

EDIT--Tried off/on cabs as well
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] saahiel:
Hey..firstly..great job with the app and the cab...works like a dream! Jus need some help with where the vip/password options have disappeared and how i can change them...can't find them anywhere for the life of me and so secure box is of no use...could u help me out with this please! Thanks buddy!

Hello ;)

I installed the app (pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20173127_00.cab) and performed the instrucions (note that im using EnergyROM on 23XXX WM).

When I go to "All messages" I cannot see any message. However in "Messages" panel it shows 25 recent text messages. Now when I tap in this menu on a msg, client runs but I also cannot see anything.

However, when I got a message after installing the app it is showed both in "All messages" and in thread.

Any suggestion on this topic? Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sqoerk:
U tried a reboot? I had this once also after sending a sms... after a reboot it worked again, so I'm waiting for this problem again.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jerrya:
So, before I jump into this, want to be sure I don't screw anything up. I text alot with family and friends, so want to be sure that this will not remove my ability to text if I screw up the instillation? If it doesn't work after installing, is the fix jsut un-installing and the original client will work?

I am not very savy when it comes to all this technology, but am slowly learning. I am running on older NRGZ Energy Rom (Mar 26, 2010) for my HTC Imagio running WM6.5. My OS is 5.2.23548 with 2.5.20121225 Manilla. I am assuming this is the latest and greatest client for my phone? How do I go about finding out which client I have?

Thanks in advance for dealing with a noob!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gremmmy:
hello

After i installed the HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20173127_00.cab, i checked what version is on the phone and somehow i got the version 2014. SMsing going realy slow with this version. The ROM im using is NRG MAXsence on the topaz.

I added a screenshot ..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
thats not the client.. thats the ez-input on screen keyboard..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gremmmy:
I see.. But how can i check, that i have installed the new messager? Because when im typing a sms right now, the respons of the t9 is very slow
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
well, theres a reason why nrgz left the messaging client out of the slower devices..

and you would open the client goto menu and about.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gremmmy:
Well i used some other ROMS with HTC messaging, and it worked very fast and smooth. The reason why i'm using the NRG ROM, is because of the MAXsence.

I really love the graphics of MAXsence, but i really hate Microsoft messaging. That is reason why i'm trying to install you cab.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jerrya:
Hey Pyrorob, any luck on response to my questions (noobish, I know)? See post 202 above.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tenspeed:
when i look at the about its still 2014 but i have the secure box option does that mean its not fully installed?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gremmmy:
I have the same problem with the NRG rom on my topaz. I just flashed a other sence 2.5 ROM with HTC messasing, and it is fast as ever..

I realy dont know what the cook did with NRG ROM...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
just follow my directions on the first post. with energy roms, since he leaves out the client, all you do is install and soft reset. i would recommend on the other hand, to install this right after a hard reset or fresh rom flash, it shouldnt cause any problems if you dont but, i prefer to avoid issues if i can. i usally install the client right after a rom flash and before i restore my sms's, i never ever have had any issues when i do it this way.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
let me tell you something, apps that are cooked in by the cook, get written to a special section of memory that allows them to be accessed and ran faster. apps that get installed oth, get written to a different section so they can be uninstalled but run and are accessed slower. thats why a cooked in app is always faster.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] travikk:
Yes, I did reboot after the installation and to be secure right now and problem still occurs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
follow my directions on the first post. it sounds like you already had a version of the client installed or downloaded an older one.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jerrya:
Will give it a try without reflashing. I got my phone pretty close to how I want it so don't want to have to go through all the reflashing and reinstalling of all the cabs I have from games to other tweeks.

Thanks for the response, and will give it a go!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jerrya:
Just one other question, in middle of installation now. I used the "Off" program first, and am installing the large 6M file now. However, I only have 12M left on my phone. I really don't want this sucking up half my memory. So I am installing on my memory card (8G). will this actually overwrite what it currently there, so there is actually no space taken?

Edit - forget the question, I see it automatically went to my main memory. But I am down to 4M left, ouch! I am going to install the color cab now, and will see what happens after using the 'On' cab!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] masfaw:
Color icons

@pyrorob

Your color icons are great :), but it looks a little out of place in Energy CHT roms because the Messaging slider icons are black and white. Is there a color icon cab for the Messaging slider icons? If not, do you think you can create one?

Likewise, if anyone knows where I can find color icon cab for the People/Contacts slider icons, please let me know.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
those icons aren't actually part of the htc messaging client, there from a few diffrent software packages, message enhancement, contact picker and a couple others.. If i were to pursue putting together an icon pack for those i would an essence be changing most of the icons on the device and not just the messaging client... maybe, but it would be allot of work and im doing this on my own ya see...

U tried to send a sms BEFORE you first noticed that you can't see any sms? If so, can you check if the sms still remains in your "outgoing folder" (dunno how the right name is in english, and to lazy to look it up).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] travikk:
What I actually did was: I installed new NRG 23XXX ROM for my HTC Topaz, synchronized with GMail then MS MyPhone, then installed the HTC Messaging Client, then noticed the problem, then sent test SMS and recieved one and they appeared in the outgoing/incoming/whatever.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Oh, WOW guess what? guess.... I figured out how to make the oboe dual sim messaging client work with gsm devices! LOL. it was easy once i noticed it.. i just sent and recieved a mms using it on my tp2.... now i just need to hammer out that txt size issue and it'll be all cherry
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sqoerk:
sounds interesting...

hopefully it'll make less problems :)

Looking forward to a new translation :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gremmmy:
Oke, well i didn’t know that. Thanks for you explanation. I don’t think the cook of the NRG ROM, going to input the HTC back again.

I'm going to use the ROM's again with HTC Messenger...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jerrya:
Pyrotob, thanks for putting this out! I installed it, and went ahead and deleted a ton of stuff to get me back to 13M memory so I could have access to my texts (anything less than 7 and I keep getting error messages saying they couldn't be downloaded).

It is much nicer to view, does seem snappier, but the fact that now its a few screen taps quicker makes all the difference, and I do like the threaded view, seems to really be quicker and easier to use!

Thanks again for putting this out there! And for answering my noob questions!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] onesolo:
This is so completely wrong, I'm with a NRGZ rom on my Touch HD and with HTC Messaging and no problems whatsoever...

I admit that the first versions were a bit slower but even then it was perfectly usable...

By the way, any idea when the new 2018 HTC Messaging client will come out??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
im not sure what you meant about it being completely wrong?

and i have a 2018 client cab put together.. theres just the issue that if you make the text size smaller then medium the messages collapse and cant be read... im trying to figure out whats causing that and am having no luck :(

So, any beta testers?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scriller:
can you release that 2018 client please? I don't care much about that text size issue. mine is always on medium anyway. or send me a link in a pm if you don't want to make it public yet. or maybe release it as beta
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
well if you want to try it that bad.. here you go: Pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20181630.cab

let me know of any issues, i think i got them all ironed out..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scriller:
thank you so much! it's feels really really fast! I haven't loaded all much txt messages in as of yet but it's really quick.

The txt size works fine, I can set to smaller or larger than medium.

mms works fine (I'm on tmous) but need to install mms size fix.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sterz85:
can you post the mms settings you're using

edit: holy ****, this is fast, i was running on a hd2 (tmous) 20173127 and this is flying now.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Hey just to point out, even if you have entered your MMS settings, if you dont mark them as "default" they wont work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sam brown:
Installed 2018 on HTC Pure with Energy rom and seems to run just fine so far.

thanks Pyrorob, good job.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
HTC Messaging Client 1_8_20181630 is working perfectly.

I just installed Pyrorob HTC Messaging Client 1_8_20181630 and it seems to be working perfectly. So far, I think it's really speedy. ROM and device details at signature.

By the way, changing message text size (up and down) is working without issues.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stathis95194:
Guys how did you upgrade from 2017 to 2018? What procedure did you follow so that you will not lose any sms?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] prosumerhacks:
Nice work pyrorob!

wonderful... working fine in latest Energy ROM... never had a gr8 experience using HTC Messaging client till date.... so keeping my fingers crossed... hopefully future versions would be much much better... thanks for this one dude.... it really is useful...

keep it coming! Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sam brown:
I think you have to backup sms before uninstall of 2017 if you want to keep them.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
The uninstall procedure is really simple, just follow the instructions on the first post using the off cab, basically, run the off cab, soft reset, uninstall any addons you installed for the client, then uninstall the client, soft reset, then install. thats it.

I just did that to upgrade the client on my hd2 and i didn't need to back up sms's or anything else.. I think what some people fail to recognize is there is a central database file that holds your sms's and mms's, the native winmo sms client reads from it and so does the htc messaging client and thats the reason why pim backup can back up your sms's and mms's, uninstalling or installing the client doesn't touch it.

The only difference is that the htc messaging client seems to add a little line to the end of your messages that reads -cdma (which as i understand it, means it was sent or received from the cdma radio, but since its being used on a gsm device it leaves me a little baffled..) after you uninstall the client open up the winmo sms client and look at your messages you'll see the line there. i could imagine that messages sent from the stock winmo client that doesn't have that line at the end might not be seen in the htc client but i haven't had that happen to me yet.

On a side note all these experiences with the client have left me with an idea that i might be able to get this to work with cdma devices, but being without one, it would be an ordeal to figure it out...
