Hi,
I used a Motorola Razr on Verizon from probably about fall of 2007 for =
at least a couple of years. I tried to use Bitpim to pull the SMS =
messages and had some of the same problems you describe now.
At the time, I looked at the code and posted to the user group and =
developer group and no one was responsive at all. I believe this was in =
the summer of 2008, but maybe 2009.
Let me ask this... do you have a lot of messages? I did.
Notice the line in your log:
14:34:01.805 {'sms': 'OVERWRITE'}
When I looked at the code back then, I found a loop which was used to =
read the messages was not set high enough for the number of messages I =
had stored. The loop had no warning when it was reaching the limit. =
>From what I could tell, the program would simply crash when it reached =
the end of the loop, before it processed the messages. I could never =
determine why there was no comment about the upper limit of the loop. =
Possibly, there was a memory issue if it was set higher, or, a develop =
just figured it was good enough... maybe higher than what the phones =
would store at the time the code was written. Most phones don=E2=80=99t =
keep more than 1,000 messages, but as I recall, the Razr could keep a =
lot more than that. I don=E2=80=99t recall even getting the message you =
got, so maybe someone tinkered with it since then.
If you search my postings, other than frustration, you will see where I =
posted the suspicious line of code and the module it came from. As I =
remember, I put out a request that anyone running the platform change =
one number in the code and see if it would compile, and I offered to =
test it, since at the time, I didn=E2=80=99t feel like setting up the =
entire development platform. It seemed like a simple request. I =
debugged it, let someone else compile.
No one ever responded.
I would still be willing to test a custom version of Bitpim to see if it =
fixes the problem, as long as I know it comes from a developer. I =
won=E2=80=99t hold my breath.
I=E2=80=99ll dig through notes if you wish to pursue this.
take care,
Jim

Subject: [BitPim-user] V3m does not transfer SMS
Hello,=20
I have a Motorola V3m (sprint). I am trying to pull all the SMS =
messages off of it.=20
It does not auto-detect, but I manually set it to the V3m (sprint) phone =
on COM4. I am able to successfully get the phone book with these =
settings, and although it will briefly display the status of SMS in the =
status bar current task, no SMS messages are transferred. There is no =
error.
I have tried using COM3 (unable to communicate error), and also tried =
other similar phone settings (V3mM, V3cm, etc).
Info:
BitPim Ver 1.0.7
OS: Windows 7 x64
Using USB cable
Phone info (retrieved by BitPim):=20
Model: Motorola V3m-Sprint Phone
Firmware Version: 24.2_00.37.0S3,2032
