Apache WM6 CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2) Bugs/Patches

[iamlocosucka]

I was having the age-old issue of having SMS sent to those outside of Verizon never being received. The fix for that was easy back in WM5:

change the registry value from "HTC_SMS_PROVIDERS.DLL" to SMS_PROVIDERS.DLL"

Doing that in WM6, now when i go to text anyone, it comes up with an error message "Text message cannot be sent"

I read the fix for threaded SMS on WM6 and it was found that the SMS_PROVIDERS.DLL was changed in some way. I extracted the sms_providers.dll in their .cab installer and simply copied it over the one in \Windows\ through activesync. Now having the reg value as "SMS_PROVIDERS.DLL" will work just fine.


Just to thow it out there, in WM5 all the DLL keys for all the strings under Protocals were "HTC_SMS_PROVIDERS.DLL", but in this WM6 rom, the "Class2" string had a DLL key valued with "SMS_PROVIDERS.DLL"....
