After installing the new "official-unofficial" ATT/Cingular WM6 Rom, now every time I access my pop3 email account in my home town, I get a message stating "roaming - you may incur additional charges, do you wish to continue?"
I never got this in WM5. Is there a setting that is screwed up or something? I shouldn't be roaming in my own town!
Yeah i get that too on my Herm... but only when i sync my Yahoo acc.

I know this is a REALLY stupid question, ... but how do I get into the registry on these phones? I sync'd up with my computer and "fished" around but couldn't find the door in??
Sorry man, ... I found the answer. I downloaded "Mobile Registry Editor".

I couldn't find that setting or the string "HKCU". Could you be a little bit more specific? Everything is HKEY (local machine| local user | classes root) which one? And do I add your entry or edit it?
Thanks for your help!
HKCU = HKey_Current_User
In this case, I assume you will need to add the key. Tap & Hold on 'Inbox', New -> DWORD Value. Name it 'ShowRoamWarning', leave the value '0'. Power down, soft reset with stylus.
As a general rule, if a registry key is mentioned it is the desired setting (obvious, i know). Point is, if the key is not there add it.
Does everyone in California have a roaming Icon on Wm6? I should have tried the real ATT ROM just to see if the damn icon wsa still on.

I haven't been to CA lately, but I'm still have the roaming Icon on all the the time in Nevada since WM6 (but I'm not really roaming per t-mobile).
After upgrading to WM6, I was ok for a couple of day's (in Sacramento, CA). As of Tuesday my phone shows that I am roaming and it will not go away. Not just for data transfers but all the time. I called Cingular/ATT and they said there was no issues in my area. Any idea's? Also I cannot get a 3G connection, which I was able to before.
i think this is a known issue (at least to me haha) for a REALLY long time...even since wm6 ROM leaked, ive had this issue, and im with Tmobile using an unlocked 8525...apparently, the roaming icon went away when i went to Texas...im from Los Angeles, CA

I upgraded my ROM to the official Cingular WM6 (got it here). I have a problem with pocket IE on any connection other than GPRS/EDGE/3G.
I cannot browse anything with Pocket IE over wifi/active sync. I tried doing other stuff like checking my email and that works so I know its not the wifi settings on my PC. I also tried to connect my PSP and my NDS and both worked so its not some port problem.
Has anyone encountered this and does anyone know of a solution?
I have a problem with PIE not displaying graphics in full resolution. They are all down sized. view -> desktop no longer shows them at full size.
I'm using vp3gs wm6, with IE cache to card.
Any hints on how to restore graphics to their full size? I'm trying to view my network traffic graphs, and when they are downsized, they become useless. I was running Custel's 1.3 for months without issue.
Thanks!

I found the fix on the WIKI. It had to do with the had coded proxy that they put on the ROM. Deleting 1 key fixed it. If you encounter the same, look under Hermes_Problems of the WIKI.
i am having this same exact problem...off to the wiki!
edit: awesome, seems to be working well so far, thanks for the heads up!
and here is the fix if you don't feel like searching ( and who does? ) and woo 100th post!
Turn off hard coded proxy into IE
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings] The default setting (that uses the proxy) is:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000000 Change it to:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000001 Or simply delete it. It's more of the fact that if it's there and =0 it's used. if it's missing it's not used. But changing it to =1 will also make it disable. This way you can simply change the value back without re-adding the seting back in.
For some reason, the registry entry above will occasionally revert from =1 to =0, causing IE's proxy to be active again. Deleting the registry entry prevents this from happening.

y'all could just use the Enable/Restore Proxy icons already provided in the ROM (Programs | Proxy Manager). Guess which registry key they flip...

I gave this a shot cause I realized I had the same issue. It didn't work for me. I don't know how to edit the registry yet. Could you point in the direction to do that. The first time I did it it worked without problems. I did a hard reset and after that it didn't work any more. Any tips.

Well, if you do a hard reset it's going to re-enable the proxy by default. I've never seen the Proxy Manager not work, let's put it that way. That said, if you go installing other settings cabs, etc... all bets are off (at least with my ROM, they are...).
Salute to you all!

I re-disabled the proxy. I guess it may be because I am at work right now and the wireless is crapy. I can't get anything other than a local connection on my PC. So I'll let you know later

The only way i have found to do this is to go to CommManager and turn off "Phone" and enable WiFi and then sign into Windows Live, and then go back to CommManager and Enable Phone again! it forces it to connect to wifi rather than the choice between wifi and gprs stuff
hope that helps

Mine has been changing to -6 from -7 on it's own the last few days too.
My only solution was to disable the get time and date from the provider option.
Haven't had a problem since.
I am assuming they have a tower pushing out the wrong timezone or something.

I dont have that tab. I know how to reg edit but where do I find it and what should I change?
Timezone and time update
In the branch HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting Change the value of the Key "ShowTimeZonesPage" to value of 1 (dword). Close your registry editor (no reset required) and tap START-SETTINGS-PHONE, there should be a new tab where you can automatically set the phone to get time and timezone information from the network. Really useful for me as I do extensive travelling. Tested on WM5

Even after disabling this, mine still changes
Mine is a slightly unusual issue but is related to the timezone issue.
I live in Sydney, Australia (GMT +10) and my phone keeps reverting BACK to Vladivostok (GMT +10) which you may say is 'so what...they are the same time zones' but the issue is daylight savings which makes Sydney effectively +11 and when the phone reverts to my mate Vlad...the times are out by an hour.
As this is my diary 'brain' its beginning to become quite an issue.
Also using Schaps 4.20 ROM in a Dopod 838Pro.
Otherwise great ROM
Cheers Spocky
sync time isues?
This is because the time zone between your computer & pda are different.
I posted about this briefly in Sham's 2.00 thread about how I am getting a roaming icon when I use either of these roms. Is this 'normal' behavior? I have been using vp3g's build for sometime now, but was eager to try a Sham's lite rom and was quite pleased with how peppy it was. And yes, I did try both Schap and Sham's connection wizards and that didn't seem to resolve the issues.
I tried searching on the topic, but all I got were hacks to hide the icon and not anything on what causes it, or long term impacts of "roaming."
I worry that something is wrong when I see a roaming icon when I am in my network and don't seem to automagically switch to 3G when I initiated a call in an EDGE section. Additionally, I'll never know when I am actually roaming.
Any feedback, suggestions, etc... would be greatly appreciated for a n00b such as myself. For now I have gone back to vp3g's rom, but would love to use something newer.
Thanks in advance.

This just perminately removes it...right? He still wants it to work if he's really roaming.

You are right, this perminatley removes it as I found out when I went to Canada. I had to rely on the provider name (AT&T vs Rogers) to know if I was roaming or not.
At least It removes the annoying triangle
Hmm... interesting... by what you are saying here, vp3G's has the hack built in? Interesting... in that case, maybe I'll give Sham or Schap's a try again. I'll just have to be dilligent about making sure I am not roaming.
Thanks

my question is that if im roaming am i going to be to be charged if it still says at&t
If I am understanding this correctly... so long as you see your "home network" as the one you are connected to, you should be fine.
I did have another concern: if the roaming icon is disabled, my data will not know any better and auto download. True, yes?
-DR
I got the roaming icon when I switched my radio ROM to 1.47.30 from 1.51.. Also my battery wears out quite fast. Does the phone search for "own" network when it's on roaming state (this might explain the battery issue)?

You say that it opens your registry without option to import, then you may not have a registry editor installed... If you do, you may see a menu softkey at the bottom right, from there you can click menu and then import your file...
Have a look around, there are several registry editors available... I don't have a link at hand at the moment, but if you use the Forum Search link in my signature, you should get good results... Search for "registry editor"...
Hope this helps...

i had the same problem in the beggining when i unloced my 8525 to use on T-mobile network. initially i had no problems, then when i flashed few roms the triangle showed up, i thought it was a rom issue but all other roms even the oem's were doing the same thing. i was googling arround and found someone had changed their sim card and it helped, so i went to t-mobile got my 4 year old sim card replaced and BAM! like a charm triangle is gone on the spot!
chance em!
I have had the Roaming Icon show with some of the ROM's. Right now I have VP3G's 3.62 ROM and no roaming ICON.

I'm running the new "HTC_WWE_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship" and my operator comes up as "Get More..." Which is pretty lame. Anyone figured out a way to change this? My digging through the registry turned up nil.
Help?
Chances are, no. It's a feature of the SIM card to be able to hold custom names that the operator wants to display. It's called EONS (Enhanced Operator Name Service, I believe). There's no way that I know of to tell WM to ignore it.
Well shoot, now i'm stumped. On the t-mob ship roms it came up fine. The HTC rom says Get More..., strange. I also have a t-mob wing (herald) and the touch-it rom said the same thing (Get More...).
This seems to be something common with roms designed for markets other than north america. Thanx for the input.

Hi all,
Since I installed wm 6.5 (Rom Officiel), the option to answer phone automatically doesn't work anymore .
i'm sorry of that, because i'm a biker and it's very useful.
A hard reset (as asked by the service support) did not change anything.
they ask me now to return the device which seems to be a hardware problem no ?
Are you involved of that problem? any idea to solve it without sending it?
Thanks and Best regards from France
Humm !
I'm surprised that this fonction doesn't interest more people; because after quick investigation, i'm not alone with that problem using wm 6.5 .
Is that happen only with the french version?
I have the same problem with diamond 2 and wm 6.5. Did you find any solution?

Can anyone help as this is a big problem. If you have to touch your phone to answer a call while you are driving and you get caught, you are in big trouble.
Could someone check their registry
HKCU\ControlPanel\AutoPickUp
and tell us exactly what is in there. Mine is empty and I think this might be part of the problem.

I just checked and mine is blank too...on a US-model T-mobile TP2 with the stock 6.1 ROM. I've never used the function before though, so I can't really say whether it is/was available to me...I'm not even sure where the option to use that is
You guys might want to check out the app in THIS thread, it supposedly makes it easy to access the auto-answer, so it might (...or might not) serve as a work-around for you
EDIT: I just found the toggle for auto-answer in the phone settings...and even though I have that registry entry blank like the rest of you, I still have the option of chosing auto-answer in the phone settings.
Sorry if you did this but can you go back to the setting and make sure it stayed "ticked". What happens on mine is that I tick the box and it shows a tick but if you come out of setup then go back in the tick has gone.

Hey man, sorry about that, I just missed it when you asked that the first time
I just now double-checked, and yes, the tick mark does persist in the Automatic Pickup box in phone settings, even through a soft-reset.
But...even when the tick mark is there, no value appears in the registry entry you mentioned and...it still doesn't work I tried it with the auto-answer interval set at 0, 1, and 2 seconds, and it never answered my test calls.
So...6.1 doesn't work any better, 6.5 is just more honest with you by not letting the setting appear like it's working
p.s. feel free to PM me if you ever need feedback from me and haven't heard anything in a day or two...probably means it just got lost in the shuffle on my end.
