Hi
I upgraded my I-mate PPC Phone edtion to Windows Mobile 5 but now i cant use camera button and record button. Does any body else have the same problem? Any solution for this problem?
Hi,
This is a know issue, and I believe is being looked at the moment. I read in one of these forums that there might even be a fix coming this week.
unless you use VITO BUTTON MAPPER or some other similar program, the camera button wont work
the record/notes button does work if-
-you turn off 'button lock' (start/settings/butt....)
-then power down unit with 'power button' (')
-press 'record button' (tape)
Ive also got to say that the windows camera app blows compared to stock
roms, and who cares about MMS. Other than that my unit has been running smoothly for the last 4 days, so thanks again buzz & toe for the awsome wm2005 on my "Banged-up and dirty"modded XDAII.

I use this rom with 1.51 radio till the rom is issued. I never had to soft reset because the rom crashed. The only really annoying issue i had is the bluetooth's one (Time to time, it is impossible to reactivate bluetooth without SR. This is why i do not desactivate it anymore ). We can always argue on choices, taste and colors but this rom is quite stable and fast enough for what i do.
EDIT: BTW check also which applications you have loaded. Did you reinstall a backup done with SPB after coming from another rom? I experienced many problems with that. Even if not pretty, i always reinstall now all my applications after installing a new rom (and i use pimbackup for calendar, contacts,... infos)
I have same problem too, thx
Post in Schaps 3.60 thread...
Not so as you think
I don't agree with that the ROM issue after call. Your deveice may be has some problem. What about bluetooth yes, there is some interesting moment that you select open bluetooth, it doesn't open, as soon as you mark to open you should restart your deveice, then it starts with opened bluetooth. BUt when you are going to turn the bluetooth off there is no problem.
I'm sure, Schap as a great moderator will solve this problems in next generation of his ROMs. The variation 3.60a (has posted), may be 3.60b, then 3.60c may be. Or he will post something interesting like Iphone platform.(I want him to do it)

I have the same problem too, what I have discover is that during the call and the screen is off (either it off automatically after a time or you press the power button) then anytime you power on the screen again in between the call or after the call in a short time the problem tiggered.
the only way you can 'fix' it is to wait until call end then off and on your screen once then the 'start menu' back or wait for an amount of time until the phone lock tigger (that one with number pad)
I said 'fix' (with quote) because this definitely a temporary solution to deal with this problem
hope schaps can get more idea in how to trigger the problem and can fix this soon
other than this issue, the rom is really very great
cheers.
To the OP,
If you are using a Hermes I suggest you reflash from scratch ie Schaps ver 3.6 rom, then use radio rom version 1.47.10..
Install ALL your applications from scratch, manually. DO NOT restore from a previous backup using, say SPB Backup; that will screw your installation. Make sure all your apps are the latest versions, capable of running under WM6.
Preferably install one app at a time, as you would anyway, then test the phone and make sure it is working before installing another app, and so on.
Don't install a theme changer or other similar software until you are absolutely sure your installation works. Leave the performance parameter settings as they are, ie at default.
If all else fails use the ROM combination in my signature below. Rock solid installation, no problems or crashes.
Let us know how you get on.
Cheers

have same problem also has anybody found that if you use internet shearing and recive a call you cant hear anyone and phone searches for network
thankz,
jdc21
no crashing for me..
the rom is really stable.
apart from the bluetooth issue its really good..
really stable and fast enough..
works really great for me..
Thanks Schaps for such a great rom.
waiting for 3.60b
Take care that Phone Dialer Skin could cause this kind of problem
wacky.banana Is maybe right
I have Schap's 3.60a along with my trusty Radio 1.47.10
No BT Issue till now
I use BT also with DrYAR-Bluetooth 1.6 (Whoopy!) No Issues at all either starting or Stopping BT
I'm using It for two days now It's OK
Did I mention that this rom Is even FASTER than the previous 3.5x?
i hav the same problem
When did this problem start?
I didnt have the bluetooth turn on just using it normally.and all application i install is fresh onto the phone memory.never install any program on the SD card.about the dialer skin i use Schen Kaiser 3G dialer.
Anyone got fix yet?
Same issue, not just Schap 3.60a

I've had this same issue for weeks now, ever since the newer ROMs have come out for the official releases (i'll have to track back the build numbers). I had it with Sleuth's last release, the vp3G 3.0 release, and now Schap's 3.60. I've done what other posters have said and hard reset, not loaded any apps, and still have the issue.
I believe I have tracked it down to do with X-button, as that's one of the few apps that is installed without customizations in both Sleuth and vp3G (and I run it in Schap 3.60a). My next step is to run vp3G 3.60 lite, without X-button, and see if that really solves my problem.

As a follow-up, I went to VP3G 3.60.1 install, ran the base install with nothing else installed and still had the problem. Still, the workaround suggested by others (putting the phone in standby and coming out) fixes the issue for me.
Hi,
I have a 8525 with WM6 and Radio 1.54.07.00. Every time I received a call it gets drop when I press the answer bottom. This happen 9 out of 10 calls. I have to call back to the number in the call history.
Any sugestion?
Do you want to tell us a bit more? Are you running the original radio rom that came with the phone or a version you installed yourself?
If the latter I would consider doing the following:
- Go with another radio rom, in case there are compatibility issues with this one.
- Might be a hardware problem so I would install the S2U2 utility by A_C (search on here to find it), set the options so that you can answer or drop calls on the touchscreen and see what happens. If the device allows you to answer calls via S2U2 and the touchscreen then you may have a hardware problem.
Let us know how you get on.

I have an 8525 with radio 1.54 jsut like yours and periodically I have the same problem...not 9 out of 10 times more like 1 out of 20...It usually happens when my phones been on for a while and memory is limited etc. I usually soft reset and its good
how long have you had your phone? if its old then maybe your button is broke????
Phone is practically new, only 6 months
I downloaded the WM6 from the HTC website and installed as is.
Rom: 3.62.502.3
Rom date : 10/11/07
Radio: 1.54.07.00
Running:
IPL-1.04
SPL-2.10.Olipro
HTC HTC Home

I have a cingular 8525 and now running vp3g's version of WM6. I have tried multiple roms trying to get my camera to work again but none of them seem to do the trick. I had a older version of vp3g's rom from maybe 6 months ago and everything worked fine. If anyone can help me you would make my day. Thanks!
if its a hardware issue (which it most likely is) no amount of rom flashing is gonna miraculously fix it
Well, camera worked fine previous to flash.
i also upgraded my radio... does that have anything to do with it?
try the old rom and you see if its software or hardware related...
mmm... i dont have the old rom
what was the old rom??
it was an ATT rom from vp3g when WM6 just came out.
I also ran Hard SPL v2, would that cause the camera not to work?
What error message are you getting? Old ROM in the sense, the official ROM that came with the phone WM5.0, before you put on WM6.0. Flash back to WM5.0 and see if camera works!
no error message, just... nothing. if i press camera button depending on the rom goes to pics / videos or task manager. Also noticed Flashlight and super bright dont launch. I found my old rom from september and it also did the same thing!
I may resort to WM5 i just installed wm6.1 and i like it alot... same issues still.
I had similar issues.... it's definitely hardware problem
a piece of cable which connected to camera was unplugged
brought to service center and just took about 5 minutes to repair it.
Or you could try to repair it by yourself
I dont know... it worked fine untill i flashed it!
Im running wm 6.1 now, the rom from Pays. Chose to stick with it because its the nicest of all and still has same issues.
1. No camera (loading icon comes up and goes away quickly)
2. Flash light doesnt work
3. Super bright doesnt work
4. MMS Doesnt allow "new" or allow for open settings
5. Crashes when going into any "Video's" in the picture and video viewer.
I tried WM5 from att, htc, and wm6 from att. Tried about 15-20 other popular cooked roms and they all had the same issues.
These issues didnt happen previous to my old flash, which was just a wm6 from att.
Today i did the folllowing before i noticed these issues:
Flashed HardSPL v7 (2.0)
Flashed in radio v 1.5...
Flashed in WM6.1
---then the day began!
I have also tried downloading 3rd party camera applications which also seem to be crashing on load. Im not sure what it all has to do with one another but i'd really like to get this phone back up and running 100%. Im a perfectionist and i will loose sleep over it!! HELP ME!
thanks

Yup that is exactly same symptoms like my hermes.... it happened after i flashed with wm6.1 rom, first i thought it was because of the rom.....apparently it wasn't
there was camera connector cable unattached with the mainboard
Still confuse though why it began after i flashed WM6.1 rom.
But now my camera & flashlight working perfectly fine
what about MMS?
same issue
my camara also stop functioning when I upgraded to wm6, the HTC realease for ATT 8525, when I go to the camara function it goes right to the pictures and video viewer

Have you made sure the keys are mapped correctly? if the camera button is bringing up task manager, REMAP your keys.
I have the same problem with camera. But it does not work without any reason. Additionally battery discharges very fast (from 80% to 20% during night). Flashing several roms including win 6.1 has not solved the problem. I am going to service center.
I have SPB mobile shell, SPB pocket plus and HHC customizer installed. All looks and acts great...expcet for the ringer doesn't work.When I slide the volume button the phone vulume moves up and down, but the ringer volume stays down all the way. ???
Anyone else have tis problem?
I am having the same problem. Have you had any luck figuring out a solution?
I did hard a hard reset, installed only pocket plus and HHC and seems ok. I'm gonna give it few more days as is, then install mobile.
Yeah I am only running MS so I bet thats the problem. I took it off and my ringer volume worked again. Then I reinstalled it and the volume went back down. I have a mogul and MS makes the phone so much better so I might be able to live with just vibrate. Let me know it it works out for you.
quite honestley I don't know what is working. I've flashed NFSFANS ROM (PPC Geeks) and tons of games and other apps...no problems yet. Actually it is running faster and smoother than stock, with GPS working flawlessly...
