No donations necessary :D but if you really feel the need, i do have a coffee fund (need to fuel my late night obsessions with messing around with this phone) you can donate to here.

The problem was with the new SMS_provider.dll. It took a couple days of digging to figure that out. A ton of testing later, a couple fixes and everything is now working :D

copy cab file to your device via activesync, double click on cab, and install to MAIN MEMORY. It should prompt you to restart at the end of the install. Enjoy!

um i'm at work, and they blocked the link on the first page, and i cant browse to it on the phone to DL. Can someone up the cab here or PM it to me? i've been salivating over this release. Good work cracking the issue.

Here is an alternative link.

takms thank you!! now does the left soft key turns into sms??

This is awesome! I have been checking this thread around 3 times a day, waiting on this release! I was actually about one day away from rolling back to the 104 kitchen even though I love wm6...
taskdsm, if this works, you are a badass. Like the ppc version of MacGyver...

no, but thats something you can change in the registry yourself pretty easily. i chose to leave it be. I use a hard button to get in my sms.

Installed this and its working really nicely. Well done! Unfortunately Im having the delayed text problem like a bunch of other verizon users so not sure if this will affect it. We cant figure out if its a ROM or VZW issue.

ok one more before i flash to wm6 can u access it through the touch home app?

Yes, the text message button and count on the HTC home plugin both work.
