Anyone notice that when receiving sms using latest codyppc threaded sms wm6, that if you are on the sprint touch home screen, the top and bottom notifications show up, but the sprint htc home sms counter does not change? If I am on any screen but home it seems to increment.

This used to happen to me randomly when I had the app on my Mogul, I don't use the app anymore though.

It's probably how the app and Outlook handle new messages differently because of the thread. I don't really know how it'd work, but it's my best guess

Does ANYONE have any software or any ways to backup these palm threaded messages? I really need this and can't find any way to do it

any help would be incredible..

Edit for more context: hoping for a way to take the palmmsgvol001 file and convert it into something that can either be used in cemail or viewed on the desktop as a txt csv or anything else.

Remember to search the answers out there, this has been asked and answered before.

There's a file in the \Windows directory called PalmMsgVol001 or something like that. Just copy it and you are done, paste it again in the \Windows directory to restore your threaded SMS.

Uhmmm I know it has been asked before, but I believe no way of editing the file has been found, or at least I have not heard of it

1. install Resco Keyboard Pro (v5.00) at http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/keyboard/screenshots.asp

2. than install http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/

Now open up registry and go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip\Now

go to DragStyle and change (0) to (1) than press done, remember to reboot you phone. Have fun!!!!!!!!!

Hey man I just got done trying this solution, because just like everyone else in here I really like that fact that I don't have to load a seperate sms program, and the fact that I can launch this sms threader from today screen or even in Mobile Shell 2.0...So this threader is a must have for me(Even though I like VITO's better) I will let you know how it turns out though! THANKS!

***Update***

So I done this and actually this is prolly the best and EASIEST way to fix the problem!!!! The only thing that I didn't like was that the keyboard icon at the bottom keeps showing up over the text, but it can't and won't be perfect, and this is better then having to downsize the keyboard all the dang time!! I would suggest everyone does this fix right here for the time being untill something further can be done about it!

Hey guys, I'm new to this using smartphones/pocket PCs. I just got my Sprint Mogul yesterday, but I've been trying to read up a lot on it for the past week or two so I had what programs and such I wanted kinda of planned out.

Anyway, so I got the WM6 Threaded SMS application installed on my mogul and I ran into the same problem that many people are also which is that the virtual keyboard covers the typing portion of it. So this thread gave me the only viable option of changing the SIP Dragstyle from 0 to 1 so that my keyboard is draggable, however, I did not use the Resco keyboard as recommended because I like using the PocketCM Keyboard.

Now the problem is that when I change the dragstyle to "draggable" (1) then it puts that bar on top of my keyboard so i can drag it but it also pushes my keyboard down so that the entire last row of keys are now not visible. I was wondering if there was some way that maybe someone knew or could figure out how to get it to not push down they keyboard like that or to maybe increase that keyboard window size.

P.S. It does this to both the oem keyboard and to the PCM keyboard.

Any suggestions would be awesome! Thanks everyone!

yes sms is the new way to do chat with your friends and relatives as well but in this this way you people use the short words of English and convey your message to other.
