Hi all,
I have upgraded my Hermes (8525) to the Black 2.0.1 Cingular version. nice rom by the way. Since upgrading, when I "Explore" my device using activesync it brings up c:\ not the device. This is the first time I am trying to get info from/to the device since upgrading. I have rebooted my PC and softreset my PPC and ensured that the firewall was off and still no dice.
Anyone seen this before? a quick search didn't turn up much (in english);

Goto: START > SETTINGS > CONNECTIONS > USB to PC
Turn off the advanced network functionality
Should sync fine after that.

Give that a try? Never seen that happen before.
Nope. Didn't work. Activesync works OK. I can sync all the information I want. i thought maybe it had to do with "Allowing Wireless Connections" while connected to the computer, I disabled that and still no change.
Custel, your cingular additions to the Black rom Rock. Do you plan on customizing the Black 2.5 rom once released?
Stupid stupid activesync. I had to redownload and reinstall activesync to get it working again... All set now.

Oh my, what's this world coming to?
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.

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!
Salute to you all.
I had this problem long times ago.
It's solved now.
Thanks.
Disabling Proxy worked for Pocket IE, but...
I'm having trouble trying to get Windows Live to work off WiFi rather than connect via GPRS/UMTS. Has anyone else run into this problem and if so, is there any way to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

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
I upgraded my Dash to WM6 Official and 2 times since then my phone (Now an S620) looses it's partnership with WMDC!
When I connect my phone to my PC WMDC opens up sees the phone and then asks if I would like to create a new partnership.
Each time I have said yes and waited 10-20 minutes for the partnership to complete.
Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a registry setting on my phone which is getting wiped?
-John
do you have windows live one care? i had the same problem and thats what was causing it

I'm not an expert, but I would suggest that you tighten it
I am having the same issue. And I also have OneCare. I have been googleing for a while now to try and find more information. No success so far.
I was hoping to find a way to fix it.
Merwin, how did you find about OneCare being the problem? Btw, good job narrowing it down to it.

Actually, i was the one who made the sarcastic comment. doalittledanse was the one who said OneCare was the problem. However, I have OneCare as well and haven't noticed any issues with it.
Hi!
Is there something that could auto disconnect GPRS/WiFi, lets say after 10 min, if it wasn't used?
I wanted setup to check for new mail every 2 hours, and it connects to GPRS and then it stays connected forever, draining the battery without purpose...
Thank you.
I found one for WM5, and not sure if it will work for WM6...

Yes, this is the first and I must add the most annoying thing that I've experienced in WM6 (never had this in WM5), especially when you don't have unlimited data plan - that reconnection is just ridiculous.
It actually made me go back to WM5 for a while, until I decided give WM6 another chance. Hopefully I was able pinpoint what make it connect all the time - Windows Live service, specifically Windows Live Messenger. Basically you have to manually logout from the messenger before you close it, otherwise it will just minimize itself when you thought you closed it.
Or just don't use it...
@Sane:
Thanks for the link. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I don't use Outlook and that app is pretty much useless for me, but sure it might be useful for others.
Speaking of Outlook, is there another good alternative to it which we could use to manage contacts? (not necessarily use it to sync with WM6 contacts directly, but perhaps be able export them to another format that later could be imported in WM6)
I've tryed NSContacts which is pretty good, if you can remmember all the time how to avoid some very nasty bugs in it that could make your 1 hour organizing contact be waste of time and you have to start over.
the best options
bandswitch or commgrpro by dan herrerra.
commmgrpro.com
these are both excellent.

I flashed to NFSFAN's wonderful 6.5 rom for sprint vogue. After doing so I have lost ability to connect to internet and connect to active sync. Active sync gives me an error your device has malfunctioned over and over again. I've already tried the Start -> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC, uncheck 'Enable faster data synchronization' for active sync with no luck. In the past when I've done a hard reset, I then also had problems connecting to the internet. Even called sprint whom couldnt help. Went through the ## codes to get to the M.IP default profile where the NAI was and it read about 7 numbers @sprint blah blah blah along with my public key in some symbols and signs. After changing my NAI to the proper address the phone would initiate the iota and everything would be dandy. Not so much with this 6.5. I love it but I need internet in order to survive lol at least until the rhodium Even if I can get back to the 6.1 rom, how would i be able to do that without the active sync connection? Anywho, help please? Thanks

Can you access your SD card via your PC? move the SD card to PC, copy to it, put SD card back in phone, turn phone on, wipe hands on pants ...
Otherwise with ANY custom ROM I always suggest, flash, let customizations run, hard reset, let customizations run, use phone, dance in your pants
for some reason it eliminates issues (like your having) from happening nearly as often or at all
Detroit Doug
I have that exact same rom.
All I did was run the dcd cab for my carrier,
Do you have alltel by chance?
because if so I have the arcsoft cabs you'll need to run for mms.
Otherwise you'll have to search for your carrier's mms cabs.
And whenever you plug your phone into the computer there should be a screen that pops up that says "Connect To Pc" on the top and has three options,
Activesync,
Disk Drive
Internet Sharing
If you don't look at the screen for like 30secs after you plug your phone in to your computer you'll miss that screen.
So pay attention to it.
That's all I can think of right off the top of my head.
Any other questions?

I know my sprint web address is right but I don't know the password so obviously gonna have to call sprint. thanks for your help guys. im sure ill have more questions before I can dance about

I think for sprint, it's the same as for Telus, in that you set it to #777 and leave username/password blank - HOWEVER - if in EPST your M.IP settings are wrong, it will not connect, and you will be greeted with "Cannot connect for an unknown reason" on the device. Your carrier should be able to give you the info for the setting you need to correct. To get to the setting you need your MSL, pop in ##PST# or whatever, and it's in there under view info - M.IP Default Profile. make sure it's set to ENABLE and the NAI is correct. For Telus it's your mobile [email protected]. Not sure what Sprint would be here. You'd have to ask someone with sprint.
If you've done all this already, and I've misread/not read that part, I apologize! Hope this at least points you in the right direction for solving your problem though! No data is no good!
??????????
mbaseball3, did you solve your problem?
yes everything is almost working properly. thanks guys! my only problem though, still, is activesync on my computer still does not recognize my phone. I've been basically stumped. one great feature of this rom though is the PIM backup =D life saver. still a pain though not being able to sync phone with comp and having to go the long way of using storage card for loading and unloading things. still open for trying to solve this problem though if anyone has possible solutions. thanks all again

Yep. Same thing here. Switched to Windows 7 x64 and had to re-do everything. Outlook even erased all of my contacts on the first sync so back them up first! Once I restored them, all is well.
I'm actually still using windows xp. by the time I got around to wanting to try out windows 7 microsoft shut down the download. no biggie though.

go to start->settings-> connections-> "USB to PC" -> then check off "activesync" and "ask me first..." Even if they are correctly checked, check something else off, soft reset, then put them back as they are supposed to be.
ok my activesync issue is no longer an issue. thanks for all the advice folks. something so simple cured it =D I just uninstalled then installed activesync (yes newest version from ms) and it worked. ta-da! shoulda been something done first but didn't think about it. doh!!

Glad your activesync issue cleared up.
Can you tell me how you got data working again? It took some time on the phone with verizon before they could get my newly flashed 6900 activated then I had to download a prl file myself to get rid of the roaming indicator. But I still don't have data working.
Thanks!
