Where’s the love for BlackBerry users?

I just downloaded it and tried it. It is not a very well made program. I will continue using the smms program. C’mon sprint, you can do better than that!

Now they have to add Sprint Radio Premier, Sprint Radio and Music Store… My Q9c has none of those

I love it and I got smms too

Crashed my 800w on install. Nice.

I can’t believe how aweful this is! It not only won’t do address book lookup (you have to manually enter the exact phone number) but it “breaks” threaded messaging that was added to WM6.1. This product makes sMMS worth far more than the measly $5 they ask for.

Fortunately I was able to uninstall, reset, and get back to threaded messaging and sMMS.

You guys let me know when sprint comes out with a better program. Smms will be my program for now.

This has been a long time coming, is this upgrade done OTA, if someone sends pic mail will they get prompted or do you have to visit a tech store?

THIS IS GREAT!!! THANK YOU SPRINT, I installed it on my 800w – amazing, phonebook lookup and all!!
FABULOUS!

I cannot get this to work on my 800w. I have downloaded the CAB multiple times, erased the program, and tried a data restore, all to no avail. To top it off, the tier2 tech rep I spoke to hadn’t even heard of the program. I keep getting error G1000 when I try to configure the program. Did Sprint/WinMo do this for the lulz or is it just moar epic fail. WTB moar win from both companies.

Does this picture mail app allow you to upload your pictures to you Sprint picture mail account on the Sprint network like the Treo 755 and Centro? That’s big question!

i downloaded it for my 800w and after a couple days got the error code g66, can someone explain what that means?

Ace on October 28th, 2009, 1:27 pm  

This application is no longer functioning and I have looked up the smms but Im not a technology geek and I dont think I will be able to do it myself. Is SMMS thru PPCgeeks easy to install without active sync?
