Avantgo on WM 6 / ozVGA Solution - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

OK I have Avantgo working again on Windows Mobile 6 using ozVGA - current base rom (used by everyone at the moment - thanks Alan!)
Below is the link to the old 5.7 version which works like a dream in ozVGA on WM6. Admittedly I havn't tried it on normal se resolution. You might end up with very large fonts. Let us know...
http://avantgo.custhelp.com/cgi-bin...p_tbl=9&p_id=451&p_created=1160685239&p_olh=0
By the way - SPB backup 1.5.5 (the latest version) also works correctly now in WM6.
Also DO NOT USE Pocket breeze as this does not work in WM 6 (Although it appears to until it eventually freezes up particularily once you load third party today plug-ins)
Regards,
Simon

on Helmis new ROM the Avantgo works fine without any tweaks

pbreeze works perfectly for me

Are you using the latest version? If so there's your problem... no voice support. You need to go back and download the previous beta version which supports voice calls on a Hermes. You need Beta version 2.2.0.20. PM if you can´t find it.

Boy, that's strange. I'm running 2.2.0.20 under Black Shadow with no problems (over wi-fi and 3G). I presume Skype don't realise that they have made this mistake with the latest build?
Simply meaningless!!

Skype is surely aware of the problem. Although they are still using pictures of skype running on TYTN on website, they have the following explanation in knowledge base. I think a guy from samsung did stg bad to someone from skype I can't think of a rational explanation for this situation. Supporting a processor in a beta release (which works smoothly) and realizing that it did actually not support that processor in the next release, Bull****.
From Sype:
"If you have a device with ARM 9 v4 Processor for example: 32bit Samsung: S3C2410, SC32442 and S3C2440, or IntelStrong ARM SA-1110, then calling is not supported by Skype for Windows Mobile in the 2.2 Gold Release. However, you will still be able to use chat to keep in touch with your contacts.
Below is a list of devices that only support chat. Note that this list is not complete as new devices are released all the time. All devices identical in construction to the ones below will support chat functionality:
• E-TEN Glofiish X500
• E-TEN InfoTouch M500
• E-TEN InfoTouch M600
• E-TEN M700
• Hewlett-Packard iPAQ rx5900 Series
• Hewlett-Packard rx4000 Series
• Hewlett-Packard iPAQ rx3700 Series
• HTC TyTN
• HTC P3600
• i-mate JASJAM
• Qtek 9600
• SPV M700
• MDA Vario II / v1605
• 8525 / M3100 / Trion
• Dopod D810
• Dopod 838
• Dopod P100
• Acer n311
• Mitac Mio P550 Digi-Walker"
Hold onto that working beta release!
The crazy thing is that it works pretty well - I've had "proper" conversations with someone from Spain (from the UK).
An explanation to why skype does not support V4
Quotation from skype forum from user Touche
"This is my 5 cents: If you look at the About dialog on the Skype for Windows Mobile 2.2, you'll notice that it says that it uses the HelloSoft voice engine. This engine does not seem to support the ARM v4 instruction set, since it crashes on all devices with that CPU. They probably use some of the v5 specific instructions in order to speed up the codec. The older versions of Skype for Windows mobile used the GIPS voice engine (also according the about dialog), which worked on almost all devices, but on the other hand was much slower than the HelloSoft engine.
Now, it seems that Skype for all other platforms has stopped using the GIPS voice engine and migrated to Skype's own one instead. That might be the reason why GIPS is no longer used in the Windows Mobile devices."

I have WM6 Black Majik on my 8525 (cingular) and I downloaded the version from the link in this thread and installed it however I am unable to make phone calls I was using 2.2.0.18 and I could make calls only on Wifi but not on 3G so I tried this one - with this one calling is grayed out completely Any ideas? Maybe I need to keep using .18 but need something to get it to work on 3G? I am able to browse the web with no probs.
PS - never mind, a reboot seems to have fixed the issue

Available cubes

I've been trying to find all the available cubes on the Hermes for use with Schapps 4.31 ROM. These are the only ones I could find. I've no idea if there is a favourite or if its just user preference.
Anyone point me to any others or let me know if they have tried them with the ROM and had problems?

Those are the big three, pd's vista cube is actually a skin for Kona's original cube, Slither is currently working on a C++ version of his cube (still in early beta it is not ready for use by new users) the flash version is very good. Also there is Touch commander available (but it costs about $15 and is not as good as the three listed above).
If you use Slither's cube you will have to reconfigure the ftouchfloconfig file to point to the location of wmplayer (or you could just install adobe flashlite player from a cab and then use the cube out in it's original form, but this wastes about 2mb of storage) besides that it runs well, PDs (and the original Kona cube) are pretty easy to use (sometimes they slow down on me though) and Byka's is good as well. Just read the directions and you should have no issues.

Hi Guys
does real vga required for softwares listed ?
and why many people install realvga for samsung i780 ? does it really required to run programs ? i mean you cant run 3rd party softwares without it ?
and what is the main function for realvga ? what does it exactly do ?
thanks in advance
the greatest app of all: HTC HOME when running realvga (has to be running!). looks perfect, takes up less of the screen than the Samsung one, has weather, favorites, apps, and music player and functions perfectly. and its so fast to load.
I run this and todayAgenda below. looks fantastic in 'guava bubbles'. Totally makes this a replacement for my Kaiser!
HTC Comm manager also works but is sized incorrectly, but still far better than the samsung app. i put it on my start menu.
i have attached many of the apps, which come from other forums in XDA

SBSH Phone Weaver (backlight settings does not work)
Pay attention with SBSH Phone Weaver, the first thing to do is to go to Options/General and set Back Light Lebel to 5. With the default 4 after the first reset your screen will be off forever!!!!
In this case type green button + *2767*3855# to perform an hard reset.........do a backup before!!!!
hi,
htchome don't work i have a errror shell32.exe.

you must install realvga for htchome to work.

Faster, stable, more memory available, I think by far this is the best ROM for Artemis
i have try it for 2 days,after that change back to pdaviet Artemis & Love Wm6.1 Build 20275.1.3.3 due to not so practical in normal using.
it's lack of shortcut in the 'today' screen and sometime run very slowy. or can I add more shortcut in the 'today' screen?
Maybe it's only my LOVE has this problem, how about yours?
but no connection wizard! all settings for gprs, mms, internet and so on have to be done manually... this could be a no go for someones...
good job
V31 was slow on my artemis too, went back to V30, and have no more problems.
..
free ram>??? more details plz
ok, i'll go back to v30b, too. speakerphone on v31b once set never can be disabled again... v 31 has ugly icons, no connection wizard, and slower too...
I'm running 31 now too, and so far it looks OK. Not really faster than YuE 10 Extraclean with a manual install of Manila2D, but it works good.
Since this morning I've got the problem that the home screen freezes when I select the mail tab. I don't know what the reason is. The only things I've installed are M2DC (for customising tabs) TomTom 7.451.9033, iGo 8 (1 sep version) and Resco Explorer 7.05.
I'll try v30, or maybe give YuE 10 another go with a newer version of the manual installation.
I actually like the color scheme in this rom, so I'll look in the Manila themes section for something comparable.
I guess that SPB Mobile Shell + manila theme won't give the same experience?
good but device lock and mouse is where

You can switch Mousemode if you follow the instructions here
For device lock use the search.... there's a lot of applications which do that; I don't know which one you'd like
My mail tab problem is over, so I'll stay with v31 a while longer.... Don't know what caused it, but it's gone?
thank you very much it's work perfect
rom working perfect with my artémis,

Somebody pls help!!

Ive had my Touch HD for about 4 months now and its starting to loose its mind. The vibration only works sometimes for a few mins and then it stops, its gone really slow and freezes aswell. I am on the verge of selling it and gettin a Blackberry or the nokia e71. Is there anyone who can change my mind and help me with the problems? It would be greatly appreciated as the first few months i thought it was the best phone i ever had!

Will this fix the vibration problem as well because I dont really wanna spend alot of time changing the rom and then I either end up with a bricked device or still have the same issue. Just on the phone to orange now see if they can exchange my handset even though i have had it for 4 months now. wish me luck...
Orange is sending me a new handset tomorrow so hopefully that will fix the problem. They have advised me not to install any 3rd party software for a few days which should not be a big problem. But i was also told that if i experience any other problems on 2 more occasions that I would be able to change my handset for another model which is good customer service
Anyway now that i AM gettin a new touch hd, can anyone of the "senior" members of this forum give me their list of programs installed which have not caused the phone to slow down? I already know of fingerkeyboard, smschat (or smiley sms) and coreplayer. But I still am in need of a good gps software and the upgrade to TF3D v2 or v3 and a gd application to tilt the screen into landscape mode. Any help is much appreciated!
I have been using my HD for a while have not flashed any new ROM's but do have quite a list of 3rd party Windows Mobile software I use on it all working nicely.
Many of my applications are not freeware though, bought over the years as I'm a long time Windows Mobile user.
In my opinion you do not need to flash the ROM to still take advantage of your great HD
My applications include:

Softmaker Office Suite
SPB time

Why don't you upgrade the stock firmware first to the new 1.56 and new 1.13 radio, supposed to fix a lot of issues and give better battery life / gps signal.
Is that the 1 from the HTC website? cos when i entered my serial number last time it said that the upgrade was not available for me so i assume that i already had the latest version...
EDIT: Dont you just love orange? I have just received my replacement and it is a generic handset. hehehe
Hello omz
To check your rom version start/settings/system/device information with the phone being 4 months old it will more than likely have version 1.14, the latest version 1.56 from htc.com is only available for sim free phones i.e. it was purchased with out a contract. As mentioned else where on this forum, providers like Orange etc will take a few months with there update if they bother at all. If they don’t your other option will be to either flash with a custom rom loads on this site or see if some one will send you there official rom. Software, video convertor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=474955 this is excellent, screen rotation I like this one http://idevelopstuff.com/dev/WM/Fuze...creen_inst.cab but there is also gyrator, satnav TomTom 7.915 works a treat on these phones. You might also be interested in this app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505 hope this helps Jez
