[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nihilion_Zero:
Hello,

Running Cyanogen CM6 RC1 here. I've been having trouble sending long text messages, which I initially diagnosed as a problem sending MMS.Specifically whenever I tried to send a long text message (longer than 160 chars) it would just hang and say "sending" for like 5 minutes before I get a failure report. Curiously, I had no trouble sending or receiving messages with multimedia content, like images.

After some additional tinkering and web searching, I discovered that MMS was working fine. Rather, my phone is trying to send text messages between 161 and 480 characters as SMS without breaking them apart into the appropriate number of parcels. Above 460, or 3x160, the phone is converting them to MMS and it goes through just fine.

Is there a way to change the threshold before which SMS are converted to MMS? I think all the EVO owners are pretty much on the same plan which gives us unlimited media messaging, therefore there is no point in not sending any SMS over 160 chars as an MMS. Is there a way we could change the threshold to 1? I imagine this is what HTC did in their messenger that was installed with Sense.

*Temporary solution:* If anyone else out there is having this problem, but doesn't have a solution, I have a temporary one. Simply download and use the free Handcent SMS application, and in the settings (settings>send message settings>Split 160) change the value from "Don't split" to "Simple Split". This will automatically break up messages between 161-460 into 2-3 parcels of 160 chars or less.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infamousjax:
Handcent i think has those setting parameters.

also, this is a known issue already, and has already been greatly discussed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nihilion_Zero:
Sorry, I was typing an edit as you made the mention about handcent. However, I haven't found the setting that allows you to change the threshold--only to make the message split. Also, it will allow to turn off conversion altogether. Am I not seeing it?

Also, perhaps I'm not so savvy here, but I've been unable to find any solutions on forums or anywhere. If this issue is already very well discussed, any chance you provide me with a link please?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martouf13:
I have this same problem which is VERY annoying! Like you said I have not seen it discussed before either!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
It's not a CM6 issue.

It's an Android issue.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nihilion_Zero:
So it would appear then that there is no solution to this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
yeah, there is a solution. use handcent. chomp probably does it too.

btw, you may want to post your questions in the 'questions' section
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nihilion_Zero:
Ah, next time I'll use the questions section. Regarding Handcent, does this actually allow me set the threshold, or just break up longer messages into multiple SMS--I mean, does Handcent present another solution other than the one I specified in my initial post?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
AFAIK, SMS length is an agreed upon standard that probably in the near future won't be changed. longer messages will be broken up into transmissable lengths of 160 chars, until a message is long enough that it is actually simpler on the network to send the whole thing as a single MMS loaf.
[Desire General] armysh:
Has anyone else found that they don't have the three dedicated buttons on the bottom of the home page for Browser, Launcher and Phone, as was advertised in the Froyo features?

Mine still has the normal "Up arrow" on the left that goes to All Apps, the big "Phone" button in the middle, and the "+" button on the right to add an object to the home page (all exactly the same as in 2.1).

Is it just me, or is this the case with everyone? Can we get the new buttons? If so, how?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j4n87:
Good morning xda-users.

ive got a questions - as already mentioned in topic - concerning battery drain during flightmode.

As everbody knows in flightmode all connections are off, which can save a bit of battery.

But what about programms, that are configured to get information over and about the connection. E.g. email sync every 2 hours from 2 imap accounts, time sync and especially WMLonglife which I configured that it cuts off the internet connection when its 60 seconds in idle -> so WMLonglife have to check every 60 seconds if programm is using the internet connection, if not wmll disables the connection.

would it be worth to disable that processes over night or wouldnt it be worth concerning battery drainage.

greetz Jan
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Svegetto:
For the email, you can just adjust the off-peak times so that emails are not checked at night.

I'm not sure if your question was regarding not running wmll at night so that it doesn't drain the battery when it runs it's checks? If that is the case then I don't think you have anything to worry about as I don't think that it checks every 60sec, as that would be wasteful. I'm guessing instead it only checks if the data connection is active, so if data is off, it doesn't do anything. Also, I'm guessing that the way it checks for data, it barely adds any drainage whatsoever; you might want to ask the app developer the specifics there.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j4n87:
Thanks for ure reply, regarding email retrieval times...didnt find an option to configure a timespace when I want to receive the mails...As mentioned im using 2 imap accounts...earlier when i was using pop3 accounts like hotmail there was an option to confgure it...

Last night I disabled alle data connections at wmll: lost 2% of battery.

Two days ago with email syncing every 2 hours, time syncing, facebook syncing, wmll ive lost 6% in flightmode.

I think I will code an programm for me, which disables the useless data services during flightmode.

Thanks anyway

Random stuff and patches...

------------------------

Hulu & Flash 10

Hulu is working but you need to install a few files first. The files will be pushed to your sdcard when you install the rom.

- Install /sdcard/flash.tether/flash-fixed-nexus.apk

- Install /sdcard/flash.tether/Hulu.apk

- Done

NOTE: The Hulu app has a bug where it doesn't close properly. You will need to kill the app with a task manager or reboot.

------------------------

So I found out that the new Stagefright files cause major audio issues in Hulu.

Here is a patch but know that this will put the old stagefright files back so the streaming audio issues will be back.

~hulu_stagefright_fix.zip

Here is the old streaming audio fix which disable stagefright. This will cause a decrease in performance in the rom.

~old_streaming_audio_fix.zip

------------------------

Wifi Tether working in infrastructure mode!

You will also have to manually install Wireless Tether.

- Make sure /sdcard/android.tether/fw_bcm4329.bin does not exist

- Install /sdcard/flash.tether/wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre7.apk

- Done

------------------------

HTC Camera patch - This will force the camcorder to save videos are .mp4 and also allows you to open 3D Gallery from the Camera/Camcorder. Only install if you have the 3D Gallery installed.

It seems MMS won't work for some people unless the HTC SetupWizard is run.

Install through recovery.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] daftlush:
OMG... it's like an addiction!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rushless:
A few questions:

1. Is this really from a newer rom leak, or is this really a gutted and modded version of the July 3 build that already leaked last weak? The only one that did leak.

2. Why are market apps hosed? Footprint issues?

3. Does this include the radio? That would be a good sign if includes the radio and would imply a newer rom build from HTC and not a modded from last week. Unless somebody somehow added the radio from the update leak from a few weeks ago....

I love the idea of a lite build and the extra files in a seperate file to install if you want. Just not interested if this is a mod of the leak already out. Newer lite build would be very nice.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scuccia:
It is based off a NEW leaked OTA. However the ROM I built is worked hence the reason there is no download link.

It's not just a market issue, its whenever you download anything. I will be doing a rebuild tonight.

Please do not bump this thread anymore.

I'll check out the skype issue. It's probably checking for something I removed to verify its on the VZW network.

I don't know what to tell you about the MMS issue because it works for me. It seems certain ppl are having issues with MMS on these froyo builds.

Does MMS work on other custom froyo roms or the stock leaked froyo roms?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] wickley:
couple of questions

Been using this ROM for a few days. Very nice work. Still using build from 8/6

Issues I've been having:

When I select a contact, then choose "Send Message" it doesn't autofill the contact's number into the "To" field if I don't have a text thread already going with that person.

When my phone is on vibrate and I receive a MMS, I do not get a vibrate alert. Was this fixed in the 8/7 build? It was unclear if that was the issue noted in the change log.

Random Data dropouts still happening.

Any hints/tips/advice about these items would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scuccia:
Do this...

Does it show the following?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] scuccia:
You have to use something other than the Android MMS to have it populate to to field. I created a zip for HTC MMS if you want to use that.

Check the SMS app notification settings, it is most likely set to 'Never Vibrate'.

The radom data issues happens in all of the these Froyo builds. If you find a rom that has less then I'd say use that. I have not been able to tie it to any specific files...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] derickmc:
I had my data connection drop yesterday. I turned on airplane mode and the data came back when i turned off airplane mode.. might be a quick way to get it back. I have tried this in the past with different ROMs though and it did not always work, but its worth a shot. Other than that, I'm loving this ROM. Best one availible right now!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
+1 Its VERY fast!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
I agree and I wanted to use this ROM as my daily, but I couldn't get a single market app to fully install, so for now I've left it for SkyRaider2.2sense. I had similar problems with SR2.2vanilla, so it seems that stripping out Sense from the 2.2 leak is causing market issues--although I haven't had a quick&functional Market since redv5 (2.1 plus JIT). I'd say I was looking forward to the 2.2 OTA but as others have said, this might permanently lock our SPLs from being rooted.

Houston, we have a problem

I need help...

So I was about to load aiccucs_2.2_lite_v3.2.zip onto my Inc... I booted into recovery, wiped data, then realized I hadn't loaded the ROM onto my sd card.

I then rebooted my device and all that happened was the little android dude would be drawn, go away, and be redrawn. Nothing else.

So I pulled my battery, rebooted into recovery and installed the last version of this ROM and restarted... same thing, the little android dude draws himself then goes away and redraws himself... nothing.

Anyone have an idea what's causing this? I also uninstalled adw launcher and been using launcher pro plus
[Droid Incredible Android Development] derickmc:
When u click and hold a widget in launcher pro, it gives you the option to resize it. When it glows orange it means its in resizing mode. To get out of it you just hit the back button on the phone. I'm assuming this is the issue your having.
