WM6 -> WM5 = No MyFaves App - HTC Excalibur

This has been asked before but I found no solution.
I've been using WM6Beta on my Dash ever since the day it came out. Last night I decided to downgrade back to Tmobile WM5 Ship Rom (RUU_Excalibur_1.11.531.2_4.1.13.24_02.48.90_T-MobileUS_SHIP.exe).
Everything went smoothly except I now have no MyFaves app. This isn't really THAT big of a deal except for the fact that now when I go to change a MyFaves contact on the TMo website, it now isn't updating with the MyFaves app on the phone. This leave the website in "Awaiting Client Confirmation" state.
Any ideas?

I actually just called TMo and asked them to re-push MyFaves on my WM6 Beta Dash. They did it without a problem. I just told them that I had a problem with my Dash and that MyFaves had disappeared.
The rep just said, "okay" and then pushed it to my phone. The whole phonecall was about 5 minutes long.

Where do I get / How do I install the Palm SMS Threading app on my WM6 Dash?

Any help on this? I've heard great things!
as far as I've heard, and tested, none of them work. (the two I know of atleast) the program can't grab the message for some reason. they probably changed how it recieves or stores them in WM6, one of the reasons I went back to WM5 for now.
This is when I got it running on WM6, there's a small problem on both WM5 and WM6, same exact problem.

the problem with the app is that you can't get back to your inbox without closing the app out first. I have set task manager to a speed dial so I press "2" to close the app then I get back in my inbox and can navigate between inbox,outbox, drafts etc. Otherwise the app works very well. This app was NEVER intended to run on non-touch screen phones, it doe work though.

Black 2.0 - Strange roaming message.

I'm sure one of you have seen this message before. I'm not sure why I'm getting it, but I have a good idea to guess why. I installed Black 2.0 over cingular's old rom. I then installed T-Mobile's cab file found here, but not for US. I was hoping the servers were the same, but apparently not. Anyway, after attempting to uninstall the cab, I still found some traces of the settings set in the phone. I made sure all those were deleted and installed the information manually for T-Mobile in the US.
I'm using T-Mobile's triggering software, so I went through the registry steps outlined here: http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=239456
to have my email triggered via sms messages to check for email.
The problem: Everytime I manually or trigger check my emails, I get the following message from Outlook on my TyTn:
Messaging (Window)
"You are currently roaming. Synchronizing may result in additional charges."
I know for a fact I'm not roaming. Any help here? I couldn't find anything close on the search through the forums. T.I.A.

This has nothing to do with the BLACK2 rom. it has got to do with the CAB you installed from Tmobile.
If its not the cab, then its your telco/carrier.
Also, dont start a new thread, this thread should be migrated with the Black official thread where issues are discusses.

jj, it's only a problem with Outlook messaging. Do you know of a method to disable this check in the registry? I'd hate to hardreset everything to realize it wasn't the cab file I installed. Much help appreciated and great job on this app.
I don't think it's just with Outlook and not just with the Black ROM. I've experienced the same error/behavior with XpressMail (push) from Cingular. I have not found a solution.

Are you using T-Mobile (US) SIM card in your Cingular 8525?
No, Cingular SIM, Cingular service. I have also not installed any additional CABs. I also have never had any other problems with phone/data transfer/email, just XpressMail for some reason. Every time XpressMail thought about doing something it replied "...Roaming..."

Interesting. Is your Outlook working fine? I haven't tred XpressMail. I also get the triangle at the top of my phone (meaning roaming). I don't see why I'm roaming if I'm connected to T-Mobile's network. i'm confused madly.
Ok I confirmed it's definately not the radio 1.40.xx. JJ said it wasn't WM6 - Black 2.0 and I agree with him to some point.
So i went to use the latest WM5 Shipped Rom from Cingular/ATT: RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2_1_.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30 .00_108_Ship.exe
Get this!!! You ready??! Interesting find... I got the roaming icon after the WM5 OS was built. But! When it installed ATT's branded stuff from the extended ROM, the freakin roaming icon went away. Something in there changed it. We must disect this and figure it out. Any takers? I'd love to go back to wm6 but I won't until this is fixed.
Anybody found a solution to this? I have just upgraded my Cingular 8525 to WM6 (Black 3.01 and then 3.5), applied the Cingular settings CAB, and I am getting this error as well.
No Fix
Still no fix for this. Sad to say bro, that JJ seems to be the only guy that should know the packaging of his black tyron roms, but the seems he doesn't care given he doesn't live in the US where it appears we suffer from these roaming icons. His latest build of Blacks (Tyron's) Shadow is most definately monstracity, but again, I can't use it with the annoying roaming icon trying to check my email and it won't because it think's i'm roaming where I know I'm not. WM5 seems to be the only solution for now until I get some hacker to figure it out. No time for me since I'm hella busy.
its an issue with cingular period! reflash to black4.0 and dont use Xpressmail its ****!! use activesync with excahnge 2007 and you will not get the roaming message.. also do not install the Cingular settings with the cab set them by hand and dont use MediaNet use wap.cingular

yahoo go and outlook with wm6

I am using Black 2.0. I love it btw.. Problem is with Yahoo Go (I guess ver 1; 2.0 not available)
Seems to work ok and lists/syncs emails however when I go to look at an individual mail all i see is a blank white screen. I suspect this may have to do with the outlook upgrade. Is anyone else experiencing this? I tried direct POP access and it works fine.
Jason
I rec'd the same issues when trying to use wm6 with yahoo go, i believe that yahoo go is only workable with wm5.
I am having the same problem.
I tried several WM6 ROM flavors and all have the same problem.
Black 3.0.1
Black Dymond
LVSW's latest
faria's latest
This is a known issue .. to-date, Yahoo Go does not work with WM6
Heh... did they finally release Go! for the Hermes family? Last I checked it said "not yet available for your WM5 device."

Never formally released, but you can pull a WM5 windows version off the web which works fine on the hermes ... unfortunately not WM6 yet (to my knowledge)
I've gotten Yahoo! Go to work with my WM6 device.
The problem everyone seems to be having is that when one goes into the message, a blank white screen appears, correct?
The same thing happened to me. So from that 'white screen' message, I scrolled to the next message, and voila! I could see my messages again.
I guess this wont work if you only have one email in your Yahoo! mailbox, but it's better than nothing, eh?

Thanks, is this 2.0?
Back on my Symbian, Yahoo Go was great. Not too much of a battery or resource drain. However on WM6, holy crap, it is a huge hog. I had it for a
about two days before I gave it up.
Since battery life is most important to me, I decided to stick with Windows Live instead.
Hi,
I'm from Malaysia and when I try to download Yahoo Go using my mobile number it says that the version is not available yet.
I'm wondering if someone could post the cab file here or somewhere where I can download to test it out.
Thanks.

How do you set up push mail on the Dash (and other vodafone head aches)?

Hi Guys,
I just got my phone bill from Vodafone (Spain) and the bill was way high! They said it was because I wasn't accessing my email via push mail what ever the heck that is.
Since I'm using the Excalibur (a phone they don't have) with WM 6.1 (that really threw them) they had no clue how to walk me thru the set up on my phone.
I've done several searches but I couldn't find a tread on how to set up push mail. Anyone able to share their insight?
I'm running Kavanas ROM
Thanks in Advance.

had a wierd SMS issue...

yesterday morning my SMS stopped working. i was able to receive, but not send any SMS. notification of send stopped popping up and MMS worked just fine. SMS service center number was right. all other data services..email, internet, gps...worked fine. so i spent over an hour on the phone with ATT customer service and technical support..going through their hideous routine by the book (obviously) questions and attempts to fix the issue....reboot the phone, take out the battery and reboot, check if any water damage is on the phone, take out and put back the sim...yada yada.
they figured it was a bad phone and they eventually offered me an early upgrade option since i can upgrade on the 18th of June. and i was (sadly) considering the motorola backflip..since it had android with a skinned UI on it. but LUCKILY i decided..screw it...i'll attempt a hard reset and set ALL my freakin settings up again..luckily some programs offered to import settings i had previously exported onto my memory card. and now all is fine..SMS is back in full capacity.
i love ATT and the customer service was great. they called me back a few times on some of their methods to attempt, including possibly a bad sim or phone hardware issue. loved that they followed up with me to make sure things were working or not.
but i guess if all else fails...HARD RESET the lil bastard
