I have a problem with the messaging client.

I "minimize" the messaging client (with back-button and not the X) and later I take (receive) a call. After the (every) call the messaging client is opened. That nerves me.

Is there a solution that the messaging client is working invisible in the background and not opening after every receiving call?

THX so far.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Like i had said previously, that wasnt an error in the translation of the htc messaging client.. its whoever did the manila messaging packages translation.. basically its missing the ids language descriptor in manilamessaging.xml..

You see, there 2 different messaging tabs in manila messaging, one for the stock and one for when you have the htc client installed, you get those extra options when the client is installed, the client doesnt add them, there already there but not shown until the messaging tab for the client is activated.. jeez.. i know what im talking about here..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AlaneCzeQ:
installed 2019.2421 on MIRI v22 ROM and it is best messaging app I have used so far. It is a lot faster and as soon as I am in convo I can start typing at my full speed with about 300 messages.

Needs work to be compatible with energy standard 23138 sept 23

I've installed 2 versions of this client tonight (20191825 and 20183727). I followed the instructions to the letter and both clients seemed to install fine but i had some problems.

First off, the newest build would not display any messages in the manila messaging tab. All i got was 25 pages of seperator lines. The newest version displayed the first message and not a lot else.

Secondly, when i tired to remove either to attempt a reinstall, it just plain broke the sense messaging tab and the winmo messaging client requiring a hard reset to fix it.

Finally, All the messages that it was supposed to display in the messaging tab but couldn't became corrupted. Now, i would blame a bad backup but i do 1 with pim backup and 1 with MS My Phone every night and MS My Phone was showing them all fine on the website.

I'm quiet disapointed by this as i think i am one of the few that actually likes the HTC messaging client. I'm quiet sure the issues are fixable. So is there ay chance you can have a look at this, pyrorob

[help required] Total fail of installation and recovery

Hi there!

I hope, there is someone who can help me...

First the facts:

I have an Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 with this ROM: [ROM][Multi-lang][19 langs] Shady313 Make Your Own Series [23134 Release 1][29/08/10] Lang=German

I installed pyrorob's Messaging Client according to the "How To" when there is the HTC Messaging Client preinstalled (first run OFF cab / second Soft Reset / third install Client (pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20192421_01.cab) / fourth Soft Reset)*

And now the problem:

After the Soft Reset the Messaging Client didn't work (clicking on icon or directly the exe starts "computing animation" (4 colourspots cricling) but it fails to start (no error notification). I've already looked into the services with "FdcSoft_TaskMgrv3.3_WM6.5" and it says, that the Mail Service is startet automaticaly but it is stopped. If i try to activate this service again through the Task Manager it says "The system cannot find the file specified." But "MessagingService.dll" is defenitely in the Windows folder (i even tried different dll's from different Messaging Client releases).

I also installed [APP][Home] HTC Messaging Client [11th September] 0.7/12018.3727 but no luck so far.

Solution:

Deinstallation/Reinstallation won't work - i tired it severel times...

I have no other idea than to flash the ROM again (since i overwrote some ROM files during recovery-attempts of the Messaing Client) to have a "clean environment" egain.

Or are there any other suggestions?

Thank you in advance...

*)After a few attempts/fails I even took the "pyrorob Messaging Client ON.cab" as fifth step (no luck) even though it is not mentioned in the install how to
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
did you install the language files for german? if not it will not load..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Well, i can tell you for a fact 2 things.. one, i always am running the latest energy rom and since im one of nrgz's beta testers sometimes before anyone else is.. and two, i always install the latest messaging client i have with all my addons.. and i never, ever , ever have any issues, now i can tell you something else, people have in the past reported issues syncing there sms's back up when using ms myphone and there seems to be an issues restoring sms's that were sent/received before having the client installed (rarely, but it happens).

now i dont really keep any sms's on my device ( i delete them or dont bother backing them up during a reflash) but i have backed them up and restored them in the past using pim backup and never had an issue (besides attachments but thats pim's fault)

i really dont know whats wrong in your case, it seems to be an issue with the clients when you restore a whole bunch of messages at once..

now consider this... using a theorem like occams razor, when i have a huge proportionate amount of people telling me the client works great and then a couple people telling me it doesnt work, where would a surmise the issue lies? with the client?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] derHass:
Yes (i forgot to write it into my post).

I installed "sqoerk german muis(407) for HTCMessaging Clinet 1_8_20182814.cab" and also "pyrorob german files 2.cab" after that.

But i'll try it one more time if i'm at home...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sqoerk:
New german language files for newst version and actual beta available. Have fun with it :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] giRaM:
nice THX.

do I need this one too?

"pyrorob german files 2.cab"
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sqoerk:
No, just extract the newest files to your windows folder and replace older ones.

pyrorob... would be nice to clean up the language part of your first post also :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
um, actually yes, you do still need those.... those are not the mui's they are the notifications..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sqoerk:
yes...I thought about moving those 3 files (not the patchfile you made) to the button and link to the new version ;)

Actually I never installed the patch you made there, hopefolly I didn't missed something in my life :eek:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sqoerk:
and now I get the whole thing about the german part ...sorry pyrorob.... :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
no problem, but hey, to make things easier, how would you like it if i showed you how to sign the files so they can be installed thru a cab? i have to do them each time i put them into a cab and its kinda the most tedious thing to me.. if you just uploaded them already signed, it would certainly make it easier for me to cab them up..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] derHass:
still no luck...

Hi!

Still no luck with getting Messaging Client working again.

Here is what i did:

01. run "off cab"

02. soft reset

03. run "pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20191825_00.cab"

04. NO soft reset

05. run "pyrorob german files 2.cab"

06. NO soft reset

07. copied over the 4 files of "german muis(407) for HTCMessaging Client 1_8_20191825.zip" (overwrote existing files, also ROM files)

08. soft reset

09. run "on cab"

10. soft reset

The "Message Service ( MSG0: )" [MessagingService.dll] can not be startet through the task manager.

Is there a mistake in the order of my actions? What can i do to avoid flashing/hard resetting again?

Thanks...

[edit]

am i right, that the "off cab" changes the DWORD "Flags" in "HKLM\Services\MSG" from value 4 to 0 and the "on cab" does the opposite?

So does "Flags" have to have the value "0" to start and "4" for not starting?

[/edit]
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
well, the messaging client cab sets the flags to 0 and yes, 0 is off and 4 is run at startup but the thing is, the messaging service doesnt need to be running to launch the client, its only job is to receive sms and mms, with the service off you wont receive sms but can still run teh client..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] derHass:
Hello pyrorob,

thank you for trying to help, but since i need my phone working asap i already hard-resettet it. Now installing the neede software.

I wish i could use your Message Client but i'm a bit scared now to try again.

Thanky you and keep up the good work!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] M3PH:
As i just posted in the energy rom thread the problem seems to have been related to a reg file i created that was supposed to update the phone identity. What it actually did was cause the phone to create several ghost text messages that could not be deleted. Very strange behaviour there. My apologies for accusing your client of causing the problem.

I probably will give it a go on the next flash but with all the various flashing problems that i've had with the current 23138 build (some my fault and some not) i'm just happy that it's working as is.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] soosoolhastam:
hey pyrorob, i just installed pyrorob HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20192421_01.cab and have been using for a few days. No issues what so ever!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] c0de_junkie:
so i have received a lot of pm's over the last few days, that i would like to address now(i hope im not hijacking the thread, i just wanted to share what i did to get telus mms to work!!) I have only gotten mms's to send not receive, the only way that i have been able to receive is by going into my telusmobility.com account and set it up to forward any mms's to my email account that I have setup on my phone.

i have modded pyrorob's latest HTC messaging cab 2019.2421 Beta with all the CDMA settings that are required for mms and sms to work on telus's CDMA network. I have also posted a regedit that will add the rest of the CDMA settings you will need. again these files will only help you if you are on a Telus CDMA phone

your best bet for using these files is to start freshly with a new flash or a hard reset, although it should work if u already have the messaging client installed, just turn off sense, and install the cab over top of any previous version, if you haven't installed the client yet and this is the first time then follow the same steps by turning off sense and then installing my cab first, after you have successfully installed my cab then you can import my regedit and then do a soft reset, and all should be good,

that is everything that i did to get mms working.

also i have noticed that these newer high versions will only work with a valid sim card in the back of the phone, just be sure to put the phone back into CDMA only on the phone setting page.

Hi pyrorob

Cab you release me the latest EXT. I wish to cook with Manila Core 2019.

Thank you
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sqoerk:
I'm always willing to learn new things :) You can PM me the instructions, and I'll give it a try :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
nah, its no issue, i welcome any work towards this..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MrTweety:
Hi pyrorob, thanks for all your stuff !!!

I enjoy having htc meient back on energy rom,

But........

I installed many times on a energy rom (french 01 october release),

i tried the 2017 french

the 2018 + french mui

the 2019 + french mui cab

In every attempt i have 2 menutions that are not transcribed : IDS_MSGCLIEN CALLVOICE and IDSSGCLIENT_ADDRECIPIENT

What s wrong ?

I took care of checking in servicesether messengingclient wasn't on.........

I wet an checked in windows folder that the 3 mui files were deleted before each install....and i even have the issue with the 2017 version in wich you have embedtue mui's.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jornbjorn:
love the client! just wondered if it is possible to make the font smaller? it is a little bigger than usuall...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dragonkaiser:
French Mui files

here are the MUI for the latest HTC Messaging client coming from my packages. I cant make a cab for it so if someone is willing to do it ... (looks like pyrobob MUI files are installed in programFiles\pyrobob\pyrobob HTC messanger FRECH MUI)

Ou sinon tu peux chercher dans ton phone ou il a installé les fichiers, suivre sa procédure pour arrêter le Messaging client et remplacer ses fichiers.

Et voilà ...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
oy, ill guess ill type this out for the eighth time...

the translation issue is not in the messaging client

there are 2 different manila messaging tabs with 2 feature sets and the one that loads depends on if you install the messaging client (or to be precise if you have the classic messaging tab loading or not).

The sms interface that you see is not in the messaging client, thats all sense/manila.

what you need is a proper translated version of the _manila file thats for french (for example english is: 7325b213_manila)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
here: View attachment 411992

But, like i said already.. these will not fix the issue.. any time you see anything that starts with IDS_xxxxx_xxxx its sense/manila where the issue lies...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dr_Ownage:
I am experiencing a few bugs. I have tried to reinstall the client a few times and have even flashed to roms.

First of all the bugs i am experiencing are:

Every now and then words will get replaced with a single fullstop eg. "What are. Doing today?"

occasionally extreamly large spaces are added into a txt message. eg. "Hello how are you today?"

I am running TouchPal for my virtual keyboard on a HD2 running NRG's latest rom.

Any help is much appreciated.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hotty1177:
THANKS

thanks for the fast reply pyro now i know.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kevintmr:
Well, that prolly explains it lol. Im running shipped 6.1 with 2.1 TF3D. I did try the sprint test for the hell of it, but it was a no go. Someone on 2.5 manila will have better luck hopefully. Thanks for the help though bro
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
Hi pyrorob!

I haven't seen more people reporting the issue with the "Sending Network" setting, that cause that I can't change that setting from the Messaging Client and that automatically it change back from 2 or 1 to 0 if I modify the SMSPreferredNetwork and MMSPreferredNetwork key values directly at the Registry.

Do you think there's any chance that your latest CAB fix this problem I'm having?

Of course I can try it and see what happens, but I just want to know what to expect.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cdub2499:
ALl my contacts were on the phone, never on the sim card and i still have those issues from time to time. So far I am up to 500 and no mistaken sent texts so Im keeping my fingers crossed. I will say that this new HTC messaging client is working better than the last one though
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] caliban2:
long shot, but if the latest update doesn't fix this, try:

1.) make sure that messaging isn't running before applying reg-keys ("back"-button doesn't really exit, check via taskmanager)

2.) with co0kie's home tab, there were rare cases where reg-changes weren't applied after a softreset, but were after power off / power on. (nobody knows why, but it's been rom-dependant) maybe it's the same with your rom?

good luck. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Meishe91:
Hmm, I'm sorry to hear that. You could possibly try putting them on the SIM card and deleting them off the phone, taking it out for a bit to sit, then import them back on the phone and delete off of the SIM card. Other than that I don't know what ya could do :( Sorry, hope it gets fixed though.

Thank you very much.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Hey i just put something together and am curious if it will work for you:

View attachment 371194
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
Thanks for your ideas.

I do kill Messaging Client (because it refuses to stop nicely with FDC Taskmanager or RESCO Taskmanager) before manually changing the Registry keys values for SMSPreferredNetwork and MMSPreferredNetwork.

The manual settings stays on place if I just open the Messaging Client with the "All messages" button on the Messaging tab of Sense 2.5 and I check the Settings -> Options of the Messaging Client.

But at the moment I compose an SMS, even if I discard it, the Sending Network settings change automatically to "Ask me" (and -of course- the value of the SMSPreferredNetwork and MMSPreferredNetwork keys changes automatically to 0).

This is also happening with the newest pyrorob's CAB.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
I tried your newest CAB and the problem I'm having with the "Sending Network" options is still there.

I described some details of my problem at the previous post.

After trying some unsuccessful solutions by my own, I went back to the preinstalled 2016 build of my ROM, which is working perfectly.

Later I'm going to try your solution, but for the moment -back to the preinstalled 2016 build- I can share that the Registry values for the DefaultNetwork, MSPreferredNetwork and MMSPreferredNetwork keys are 0, 2 and 2, in that order.

Thanks pyrorob for all your help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
hey i want to suggest some things but i need some information from you, i need to know what software that the cook who made your rom cooked in, so if you could run this on the phone: OEMCheck.exe

while its open, tap on export and save the txt file it creates to internal memory. it should save to your documents folder on the phone. attach the txt file to a post so i can see it. thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] caliban2:
that's already strange, it should close nicely with any taskmanager (i use mmtaskmanager and fdc), no need to kill.

so you're rom is special. :)

maybe your oem-versions will tell pyrobob something.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sterz85:
not sure if this is related to the messaging client but is there way to turn off the sms/mms wake up?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
i belive its:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]

"DisableSMSWakeUpEvent"=dword:1
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] slackersink:
Used the newest version, even set the dll to manual and restarted first, my mms are still received as 4-5kb.

HD2 Stock 2.13 tmous rom
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
Could anyone tell me if there having any issues with opening a received sms? im having an issue and i need to figure out if its just me.

edit: weird, the problem disappeared after a soft reset..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
messing with the dll aint gonna help you with your size issue, bud.

you try installing the mms settings cab after installing the messaging client?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yiap:
Hi Pyrorob,

thx for your sharing...but i have a problem using your latest htc messaging...i only can view all my message in traditional mode and nothing shown in my conversation mode..is there any way to show my message in conversation mode??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
The information OEMCheck.exe gives is: App. Name JbedJava_5_1 Version 0_0_20090217_51R2.

I think this refers to a program I installed to use a Banking service.

I hope this info helps, somehow!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] slackersink:
With your hd2 settings cab installed, it won't even send an mms. The regular texts work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pyrorob:
??? your the only person that i know of that has that issue.. it shows fine in both modes for everyone. wouldn't make sense to release a half broken app now would it?

now do you mean you cant open up your messages in conversation mode? or that you cant see them?

Thats it?!? that tool pulls information from the masd key in the registry, that contains a lit off al te installed apps/packages in the rom... if the cook pulled out all that information.. well that isnt very wise. might want to look into a different rom.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Tiemen_S:
Hi everybody,

I recently restarted my search for the ideal version of the HTC Messaging client. I'm running the ROM "simplicity" on my Touch Pro2 which has Arcsoft cooked in. I like some of the new features though, but it doesn't have to be all pimped up. Manila's version is 2016.1332 and the OS's version is 21680.

Which one have you guys find to be most stable, but capable of:

-loading a limited history to save time

-retry sending option (automatic or manual click on message) and exclamation mark for failed messages (so no Draft haggle!)

-well working UI (without glitches every now and then, especially when switching to and back from landscape)

?

I don't know where to find any changelog which tells me when features are coming in that I don't need if it costs any stability/speed. Such features are: securebox, sms-search, etc..

Anybody that can help me sort this out?

Thanks in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deaconv:
some questions for a noob

i've installed the client and im just trying to make sure that i did it right. i put kumar gtx rom on my phone and it worked great but the messaging client would freeze up on me when using swype after about 100 text messages. so i found this one and put it on following the instructions and it seems to have installed i just want to make sure im loading it right? does this messaging client look the same as the stock client? is there a way to tell for sure i installed it over the other one? and also i still get the same lag after about 70 messages where it takes a little while before it allows me to type? any help would be great thanks alot. great work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Tiemen_S:
By the way, I'm just wondering, how come this new client doesn't recognize the old messages on my phone? Even after another MyPhone sync it doesn't want to put them in inbox. I understand it's because of installing the new client, but the messages still are somewhere on my phone (SMS-tab sees them still). Is this just a different storage location or something? Could it be solved by transferring/reading the old messages to the new location?

I just installed the latest client, the automatic resend (bad signal) has already been useful :).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jornbjorn:
why is it that if i change the font size, the box where i write the message has a lot smaller font. at the smallest setting i almost cant read what im typing...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nixeus:
Hello my friend,

From which rom comes from the HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20192421_01 ?

If anyone have the link for the full rom, it will be very nice :)
