Solutions
#1 Fix overlaps between carrier and OEM_Helmi_Addition OEMs

This removes the following keys from Helmi's OEM, presumably allowing them to be set by the carrier OEMs...
HKCU\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction\CDMA
MsgType=4
HKLM\Software\OEM\SMS
PriorityHighLevel=2
EnablePriorityHighLevel=1
This correction has been reported to work by phoenx06, and makes the config of the kitchen simpler (i.e. no need to have overlapping keys, since these are in the carrier customizations anyway.)
#2 Change SMS dll

This correction has been reported to work by evans, and young.till.i.die.
Since the corrections don't overlap, I'd like to understand a bit more about them before I add anything to the first post. Do they each fix both issues? |
From my testing, solution #2 does fix problem #2. I have sent and received about 50 text messages and now the messages are no longer mangled. I haven't tested with any other carriers however. I will do that soon.
EDIT: I just sent 10 text messages back and forth between a Verizon cell phone and a Sprint PPC-6700. Got them all. I didn't check for this problem before. |
I would also like to furthur understand the differences - I applied the modified .xml and reburnt my ROM today - all is good with SMS outside my network.
I would like to know where HTS_SMS_Providers.dll came from - was that from the Bell Mobility ROM? Is it a newer SMS provider?
The other one (SMS_Providers.dll) seems to be the "Microsoft SMS" provider. At this moment my non-Verizon clients are happy to be receiving my messages (lesson - no ROM upgrades when you are deep in a project
).
I'm guessing that only 1 of the providers is needed - just need to know which is the better one
