List of things that WORKS and do NOT WORK with NEW ROM

Please list the things that WORK and do NOT WORK with the new ROM uni_cdl_13068_130153_10900_wwe.

Opera 8.5 beta 2 with Tabs Works
You have to change the System font to somethin else though and then back to Tahoma else you see Wingdings
Use Tweaks 2k2.net to achieve this
Regards

The COnnection manager key on the hardware keyboard (Fn+Right Arrow) doesn't do anything anymore

Everything seems to work better and faster on my jasjar, except the fn key combination to turn on the comm mgr. Other than that everything seems to work for me

It can't show date & time on top bar on today screen as it is occupied by the battery icon.
I tried using tweak2k2 to add date & time, it was ok on other screens except "today". On today screen, it shows a broken icon.
May be it is just a simple reg tweak, but waiting to be found... Ideally, I want to see both info.

Bluetooth Turning off by itself
From what I have seen so far the new ROM has a similar problem than the current official Imate release English ROM 1.13.53 with Bluetooth turning itself off. In connection manager it appears to be on but when entering the settings the tickbox is blank. Has anybody else seen this behaviour or have a workaround? Thank you.

I cant get MMS working with O2, was going to try to have a look at it later tonight.

Can't get SPB Pocket Plus software to run in that it installs OK and appears to function without problems but as soon as you do a reset on the universal it hangs when restarting on the windows startup screen.
This appears to be nothing to do with the extended ROM as I also have the same problem when this is not installed.
Does anyone know how to make the extended ROM visible in such a way that the system doesn't create a second "Storage Card" entry. This behaviour occurs when I set the
HKLM\System\StoreageManager\autoload\TRUEFFS_DOC1 bootphase attribute to 2
and because I have installed all my utilities on the SD Card they don't work any more as the SD card gets renamed to "Storage Card1"

Just curious, are you using v.3.1 of SPB Pocket Plus? I never got the problem you say. I have installed SPB on O2, Imate, and QTEK variants of the universal ROM

pocket outlook now polls for email whether you leave it on the said account or not. Oh push email works great!

jorgee: The purchase invoice says 3.0 - naturally I can't look as I don't currently have it installed because of the reset issue.
Never had a problem with the old ROM (German T-Mobile from january)
Really annoying as I love the features this tool has.

U should upgrade to 3.1, you'll notice huge improvement in speed and if i'm not mistaken you'll get free update since you purchased 3.0, just use the old serial number.
I even installed it on extended rom memory without any problem at all, it runs as good as installed in main memory

Jorgee: thanks for the tip.
3.1 works great (even after a reset!). I'm a happy man again.

On my old Qtek 9000 ROM, the data connection automaticly disconnected after checking email, but with this new ROM, the connection stays on.
Anyone knows a way to change this back ??

keyboard backlight
I can't find the reg key to change the length of time the keyboard backlight stays on. I am not sure if the location changed or not, but it isn't where it used to be, at least on mine.

Video CALL xda live or Vanila.

I upgraded my tytn with xda live.
I read a lot and did find a solution for video call.
Did someone have Video Call working in xda live or vanila ?
How ? pelese ?

I would love the same if possible.
****************XDA LIVE ROCKS******************

Video calls solution
Galinha, Griffy wiffy!
I used this solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1149766&postcount=82. Some other people also reported this helped. The only difference for me, was that I installed these skin cabs (see attachment) one after another: "TyTN_Blue...", and then "zphone_..".
Please use search "search" function - these questions were discussed several times in XDALive threads.
Good luck!

Really?
Dear Konstantin K.,
Can you really use the video button to dial video call?
Some people can install the dial pad but when pressing the video call button, it just make normal call (NO video)....
Thanks for your reply in advance.

Install These cabs
Install these cabs it worked on my spvm3100 and video call works fine.
First install MT_PC_HERMES.... then the zpv_leaf
the first adds video calls the second installs the skin.
also make sure that your phone has the correct settings in connections so can actually connect to the 3g network to make video calls
hope this helps

This works well on my UK SPV M3100 on the 3 network.
Used the TyTN Grey dialpad from the wiki to try and match the colours on the Aero scheme.
Anyone found a better dialpad that matches the colours well??

work fine for me but device seems to be slower, that it was before I install it.
I used this:
MP_CVSDcpl_20060920.cab
MT_PC_Hermes_HTC_REG_070112.CAB
P_Generic_UI.CAB
and after that
zphone_reptile_blue_mm_qvga_3g_wm5.cab

Hello :
Thnks ! Where can i get these files ?
Are you haooy with you radio version ? GPS WORKS ???

Hi, what do you need to set specifically? I have the dialler, skin and 3G connectivity (for internet) but the Video call fails every time?
Any ideas?

PS I can receive Video calls fine, its just initiating the call from my M3100?

Just noticed that installing this fix on WMXL v.20 gives me the old green background on the Comm Manager program. It's hidious when compared to the rest of the theme. This didn't happen on WMXL v.10.
Any way to skin it back??

Video Call is not such a problem with WM6 anymore.

I know this is not a issues thread but I thought I would mention after installing the methods mentioned in this thread to get video call, I've noticed when in phone mode if you press the softkey representing Contacts nothing happens however if you actually tap the Contacts on screen then I can go into contacts, has anyone noticed this?

I have this problem also, I thought it was due to my video skin only though. Not too much of an issue, but suspect when the 'official' XDA Live skin for video calling comes out, then it'll be fixed.

My comm manager is blue. but this dialer lags horribly.........

Strange, my dialer works fine (except for the contacts button obviously) no lag at all. However as soon as I install the P_Generic_UI cab file included in the zip of 3 cabs poseted here my comm manger goes back to the old green HTC one in WM5. This did not happen to me in the previous WMXL release.
Tried it twice now and my comm manager has been reskinned.
Must be doing sommin wrong here, lol.

Voip package available?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950&highlight=voip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303493&highlight=voip
Is there a seperate WM6 VOIP cab available somewhere? I don't see the suggested files, so I assume that I don't have it on my WWE WM6 rom.

Well, as you may have noticed I've found those threads, but I saw that the most of the thread is regarding HERMES.
I was wondering if anyone with an Artemis has been able to turn on VOIP (native voip)
I did manage to install the package as mentioned in the threads above, as well as put in the right config files. Also, the "Internet Calling: Available" today plugin is correctly displayed. However, I cannot switch dial pads and I don't get the correct status (connected).

Same problem here
Setup was done with Sip Config Tool 2.0.1
The plugin is configured : "Always, if available"
When connected by wlan or activesync the plugin displays : "Kein Empfang"
Disconnected from network displays : "Available"
Hopefully someone can help me

Guys I've got it working just fine on an xda orbit. There does seem to be a little bug though and that is when it's says "Searching" and "Available" on the today screen. Available actually means searching and searching means available
When searching is displayed, click on it in the today screen and you might notice a slight change in the signal which means it has switched to voip rather than gsm. Go to the phone screen and you'll see that the network has changed to your voip provider and any call you make will be routed through them.
I have downloaded sjphone yesterday and configured it to use my sip voip provider and it works brilliantly. The sound quality in sjphone is absolutely brilliant compared to the native voip, you should try it.

Finally it's working...
I tried to deinstall the plugin and after prompting an error it worked
The homescreen plug signals "searching" but as you said before it means "availabe". There are still a couple of things:
1) no incomming calls... i can't find the stun settings
2) +4930xxxxxx format doesn't work, i've to type 030xxxx
3) doesn't work after standby
Which version of sjphone are you using? There seems to be nothing available for wm 6

Hi BlueD,
I'm glad it's working for you. I tested incoming calls and that worked nicely as well without configuring any stun. The voip I used were sipgate and callcentric.
There's a post somewhere on one of the big voip threads and the guys managed to customize the dialing plans so that you can dial without using the international format. Do a quick search on voip dialing plan and you should find it somewhere.
Well obviously it doesn't cause the wifi disconnects, hence making it only useful for dialing out rather than receiving calls, except ofcourse if you want to leave the device on all the time, but that's not a very feasible solution.
The sjphone I downloaded was the one for v.1.60.303c Pocket PC 2003SE, it works nicely with excellent call quality. I also think you don't really need native voip capabilities to run that, which makes me think we could have had this on WM5 hmmm...

OK.. just fyi - i got a little bit more success in using the native VOIP solution. I had to flash from the WWE 6 to the BnB 2 ROM, then install the VOIP.cab and SipConfigTool. Now i can receive calls, but cannot place any... not sure why. Also, when i receive a call the sound is CRAP.. probably some codec issue here.

What type of internet connection have you?
Have you open ports on your router necessary for SIP, inbound and out?

Yep I did. I got this confirmed by testing it with a softphone on my PC, which works great (same voip provider etc).

cant dial no. starting with +1 ,etc

hi,
i cooked a rom for myself with the kitchen program and now find that i cant dial numbers that start with +1 or any internatinal code
eg: +1 232892369283 but if i try to dial the same no. with no + sign ie just
232892369283 , i am able to call.....
i am with rogers in canada... what could be the issue.. the radio in my handset is 1.48 version...
please help.... as i have to edit the every number before i call

i changed the radio to 1.43 and still not working.. guess its something to do with the rom that i made... even tried installing the schaps rom...no way out???????

For the short term solution, have you tried to dial "00" instead of the "+"? They virtually do the same thing according to my understanding.

I REALLY dont need to use the 00 as i most of these numbers in my phone boook are local numbers, except that they were saved in the "+" format....
i tried to install all the available ROM s but none of them seem to solve this issue.. i am begining to think , either it could be a Rogers issue or i have screwed up something really bad

This isn't a Roger's issue as most of my numbers are dialed in international +1 format. So it must be the other one...

Same problem
Hi,
I have the same problem but only with VOIP calls. For GSM calls it works fine but with WM6 Inbuilt Voip calls it gives an error.

i have the same issue with mines...rogers...i notice it started to happen when i switch and put in my pay as you go chip...it use to work ok with my regular account...only started with pay as you go...is that what you are using

yes mine too is a pay as you go.. it was not like that always.. till saturday it was fine.. but i used to get this problem once in a while before but i thought that it was due to the rom that i was using... i never had such issues with my SE P990i phone that i had before....
Should i be calling rogers and ask ??? any not possible till tomorow evening

Some thoughts of the Official O2 WM6 ROM

Although the User Interface is not as good as B&B, But I like to keep it simple.
After hard reset:
Storage Total: 54.09 MB, In use: 6.33MB, Free: 47.76 MB
Program Total: 47.90MB, In use: 23.18 MB, Free: 24.72 MB
Pro:
Faster than WM5, programme switch speed, opening Windows folder is much more quicker than WM5. Battery looks last longer than WM5 (or might have a problem with the battery indication software, consumed 6% on standby over 7 hours.)
Con:
1, still has the Wireless connection problem that will not be able to disconnect WIFI throught Today's screen.
2, very irritating that MSN messenger has to download my MSN email contacts to the phone's contacts.
3, X-Button not available, the HTC X-Button 1.5 not working properly with this ROM, causing system crash.
4, First charge stucked at 88% and orange light, soft reset, back to 100% and green light.
Still testing.......
Edit: Pro: I like the new phone "contact" system. a new number can be added to my existing contact more easily. Also, the contact's total call time and number of calls is very impressive!
Edit: Neutral: MSN issue, updated on page 4.
Edit: Pro: you can add an unknow missed number to your existing contact.

Hmm - my experience on installing the new O2 UK WM6 ROM:
Con:
1) Noticeably slower than WM5 to do almost anything
2) Wasted a whole evening reinstalling and reconfiguring all my applications
3) No useful new functionality
Pro:
Nothing yet.

I installed it yesterday evening, after installing it, it seemed a bit slow. Now i got it all set up it is pretty fast and works allright. Only software I installed extra was spb diary.
Only thing i find annoying is that you can't disable wifi from the icon on the today screen. But there is a shortcut to the com manager on the o2 plug in so it makes up for it.
o2 rom has got some nice tools on the today screen like the profiles, meters, you can see the last call on the today screen also there is a today plug-in that shows the applications that are running, you can also end them from there. So its same as x-button. You can find it under the custom 02 today plug-in setting.
But still waiting to try out B&B4.0 with the touch flow.
Greetz,
Dushman.

any workaround for this ?

Can you tell me does your smart dialling work ? i ask because i have flashed this rom twice now and when i get the dialpad up there are no contacts in the top half, so i can't scroll through my contacts ! And all the smart dialling options are enabled by default.
Thanks....

anothe rthought of O2 WM6
Well, I before I went to bed aroudn midnight (UK time) I thought I check the O2 site and bingo the link is back there. 5 minutes download and 10 minutes later WM6 running on my XDA ORbit.
1- much much snappier. Opening folder, program, setting, contact, emails, explorer etc... has a whole lot new feel to it.
2- GPS works faultless with tomtom.
3- got rid of O2 phone skin and restored the OEM phone skin. Prettier and snappier.
4- I dont want the the x button to close application. I do keep few running such as email, explorer, contacts, and calendar. O2 provides a simple application to view/close running applications. I also, use Explorer 2007 which has the same functionality.
5- cannot close wifi from today screen. Minor inconvenience.
6- Office applications updated.
7- Explorer still works (LOL) and believe I tried Opera and other and I always go back to Explorer. It renders the screen better. Sure no tabs but I dont use them on my mobile, on my desktop yes.
8- Emailer you can now see html - a great boost for me as I need it (you can still block images if you wish) and very useful. Previosuly I use Qmail which I think is the best but lets give the emailer a chance.
9- I heavily use msn and voip and they work faultless (even when conncted to Activesync) I can still sue my wifi for voip.
10- battery comsumption seems to be the same. Battery Was 95% when went to bed (tested email,explorer, windows live etc...), 9:30 am it is still 88%.
11- I like the encryption facilities and finally I can encrypt my files on the storage card natively. Previously I used Cryptainer LE (free).
12- Internet sharing works (just make sure your connection is secure).
13- wireless security are all there as before (wpa-wpa2-wpa2-psk etc..).
thats it really. No major new things, just improvements and the OS definitely faster and less memory hungry.
Still testing it of course ...

Where's the terminal services client? Have they removed it? I've seen a seperate install for it somewehere.
Also, I assume I don't need the storage card fix from HTC for this?

Don't have anything new to add that hasn't been said already.........except that i don't like it. Been using B&B3.7 until last night. O2 WM6 seems like a step backwards from this ROM, not sure why.

terminal services
Terminal services gone and rightly so. What is the use of it on a phone without a keyboard and 320x240 screen (YMMV) ? Now, if I am using the king of phones (XDA Exec )with the best keyboard then I will miss it.
Well I have 2 GB sotrage and I am keeping an eye on it. Lets hope we dont need the fix ;-) (Of course I have backed up everyhting three times just in case.

The WM6 build from O2 contains the Sd card fix so no need to add this to the build. The issue with not being able to turn wifi off from today screen is in all WM6 builds not just Orbit.

Ok im pleased with this new 02 rom now, but i will have to try the new B&B 4.0 when i comes out. can't wait for that.
I have noticed one very small odd thing though, when you go to select a new text message alert, there are 2 x dogbark, 2 x ding and 2 x alouette ?
otherwise fine....

Yes I am afraid it is not possible to disablethe wifi from the today screen, you will have to use the comm manager.

I never setup the GPRS, when it asks on first hardset screen, I always unticked the option. Though, I think you can turn it off by:
O2 Operator Settings--> tick the "i want to do auto configuration now", and scroll the underneath menu down, choose "remove all settings".--> click the top right "OK", done.

and to think that no one has mentioned abotu the new looking solitaire? are your priorities not right??? (just kidding )
Phone working great on WM6 for me - some real response improvments in places. TomTom working good from SD card too - new reinstall required there. Hell - I even like the 02 additional software for a change (like I did with WM5 on the orbit - unlike their today screen stuff on XDA2i....)
So that's at least 1 happy customer...
(and in fairness - their billing dept has been very helpful to me since a billing error - I really can't fault them there)

Press the Call 'End' (Red Color) for 3-5 Seconds and it Disconnects GPRS.
