Wow...this app gave me a scare!! I installed, and lost my Today screen wallpaper, and I could not change it through settings. I finally found the meathod of going to the picture, and setting it as a Today Wallpaper from there.

Anyways....the app works great (I still have a test pic mailed I am waiting on confirmation of, but it looks good), but I did notice the 5MB it took!!!! I will decide if I will use it enough to warrent that amount of memory lost, but for now, it does look good!!!!!

Thanks Wideawake

Not sure if it was mentioned in the 50+ pages (didn't read it all). If you don't do a "Soft Reset" after the install it won't work correctly. The MMS folder will still be present along with a few options but a pop up will come up when trying to send.

The App works flawlessly. Totally shocked that I have PM on a Windows device.

I recently purchased the Treo 700wx from Sprint and downloaded the file directly to it. The problem I'm having is installing it. My phone tells me that there is no application asociated with the file, and that I need to run the applicatoin first, then open the file from within the application. Not sure how to do this. Any suggestions?

I downloaded the app and it works good on 700wx. Sometimes it takes several attempts to send but it doesn't require near as much time as it would if sending to e-mail. Thanks ...

*remember to soft rest*

It's because the file you downloaded is a zip file. Download it to your computer unzip it and then send the cab file to your device via email or activsync

Ok, so I'm somewhat slow here, but I downloaded the file, and extracted it on my desktop, sent all the files to my phone via i-red, soft reset my phone 3 times and nothing. I'm obviously not doing this right. Any suggestions or crutches to help walk me through this would be helpful.

1. Download the zip file from the first post. This is best done on your pc.

2. Unzip the zip file and there will be a .cab file inside.

3. Hook up your ppc to your pc via ActiveSync.

4. Drag and drop the .cab file to your ppc.

5. On your ppc navigate to the .cab file that you moved.

6. Tap on the .cab file to begin installation (follow on-screen instructions)

7. After complete installation you can delete the .cab file from your ppc.

That's it.

I know I am going to run the risk of getting hammered here, but I scanned most of the 50+ pages, and couldn't see an abswer. I can't see any incomming pics. I can send fine, but in the recieving part all I get is a blank 'form letter' type of page, I can't get to any of the images sent to me. I can fill in any other details needed, or answer any specifics, but I didn't know if this was a known issue I missed in the thread, or if there was a work-around already!!!!

Thanks ahead for any help guys!!!
