Fix/Workaround for 2016 Issue

[nexteldude123]

When I try to load the .csm file back into my phone through PPCPimBackup, it starts to load it but then about 10 minutes later it responds back with a CSV error stating that it is an invalid message file. Anyone have an idea of what I could be doing wrong? I tried all the steps in order three times and get the same error. Any help would be appreciated.

The cab worked on my Sprint TP2 running stock ROM. Thanks for that.

Altho manually reloading or deleting all texts from the last couple days is a bit of a chore.

I notice there is another view that shows all texts in chronologic order even if incoming texts are dated 2016 while outgoing are dated 2010. Click Messages>All Messages> click whatever thread you choose. The thread seems to present in chronologic order.

Thanks for all the work on here. PPC is a great resource for mechanically adept but technologically inept guys like me.

heyy ziggy for some reason i tried cooking the cab in and it doesnt work...if i try to manually edit the file through the registry those options arent available...the first one i can get to the sms registry however the option to edit is not there...do i need to add it in?

And the 2nd option u mentioned jaataq or something isnt even there either....i am running a diamond not a tp2...not sure if that makes a difference or not.

Thanks Zig. Installed and working.

Running HTC Touch with SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.

Deleted all my previous messages after 12/31/09 and ran the cab, then soft resetted. Texted myself to check and it works.

The second option was only a possibility for the new HTC Messaging Client in 2.5, found it while working on the MMS fix for Sprint. The first entry is in the OperatorPKG rgu, at least in the Stock VZW ROM.

You might want to consider creating a cab to reverse this, since uninstalling might not be enough to undo this, so that when someone eventually pushes out a fix, this can be undone.
