Disscussion [FINAL VERSION]Schap's WM6 Pro 4.00 ROMs - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Cool new ROM, but still it have some bugs ihope be fixed in future versions
those i found :
in settings=>personal=> today - no schap's theme
in setting=>system=>clock and alarms - if choosing +2 jerusalem switches to +2 Windhoek
Is it possible to save all stetting from old ROM (outlook, today, region etc....) and after installing a new rom put it back? maybe you can help us with some settings transfer tool?
Can you please add toyou advanced configuration tool softbank x01ht english layot? (like in picture http://mobiltelefon.ru/i/other/may/23/softbank_x01ht.jpg) and if you can add this setting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1640870#post1640870 to operators database?
also in the connection setting apperars 2 wi-fi buttons...
thank you very much

I found an issue with the camera, i cant choose to save my pics onto my microsd, when i go to setting it only has main memory or network not microsd. Is anyone else having this issue with this rom. I try everything i can but i can't figure it out.

in the upper part of the screen in camera mode you have from left to right : mode (photo video etc), resolution , memory (main/microsd); memory left on choosen (memory/microsd) ,close button

Yea i know i see the buttona but when i click on the memory nothing happens.

strange what kind of card do u have?

Try ejecting your card. reboot the phone. insert card and go to camera. I had that problem going to official wm6.

I'll give it a shot. I have a 2gb scandisk, it works fine other roms except this 1. but i dont have HTC album in the other roms

try it couple of time and still i can't choose my microsd as storage

disable network folder and i think u should see the storage card

I have a problem with Camera Album, read only the pictures of the tytn storage
as ever? There is one solution ?
It is a bug?

This ROM crashes for me after a soft reboot. It stays locked in the Windows Mobile screen. Also one cause is if superbright is launched and a soft reset is carried out, it will fail to reboot.

It reads both

It reads both SD and main memory

Anyone else noticed issues connecting to wireless networks?
Sometimes I have to disable / enable WLAN a few times to get a connection, even when I'm basically sat on the access point. It tries connecting (the top bar icon animates for a second) but most times it goes straight to the "mast with no radio waves" icon. When I'm lucky it animates for longer (4 - 5 seconds ish) then connects.
HardSPL v7, Radio 1.38.00.01 from latest WM5 Orange UK ROM, Schaps 4.00
Gonna try it at work and see if it's just my access point.
Anyway great ROM my 2nd flash nice one Schaps

Wm5torage
wm5torage when active will hide your storage card because it's being used to create a usb flash drive emulation. It is possible that you have wm5torage active as this could create the behavior of no storage card option in the camera app.
Check and see if that is the case...

Change your time zone to anything other then GMT+2 and press OK when asked if you want to change your time zone.
Then go back and change it to GMT+2 Jerusalem press OK when asked if you want to change your time zone.
Hopefully, from now on your setting will be saved.
Well it worked for me

I figure it out how to make my storage card my default for the camera, i disable the network and it work fine
Thanks at10ti0n

after soft reset always says that my operator not in database and asking for connection settings ... even after i installed all the settings....
conclusion: not exactly final version... wasted my time....

go to settings/connection setup/ launch it than press Menu button on the right hand side on the screen base and uncheck "Enable Auto Configuration". After that it won't bother you with Operator settings stuff. It worked for me on every ROM wich included this feature.

old rom was just GREAT!!!!!! and this is so not.......

Mine always begins at the start of the second ring.
1. use the original phone, not the bloated one with video messaging (not as pretty, but saves 3.5mb on load up)
2. remove memory card readers that are present on the today screen (eg SPB and Resco)
3. delays are longer when the contacts list is longer for caller id (I have 80 not 800)
4. consider when pictures and ringtones are also assigned to the contact (just use the standard single ring tone for all contacts, no pictures)
5. if your ring tones are on your sd card, this will also slow it down (move to windows\rings)
6. i extended the ring period also to a full 30 seconds to ensure that I have enough time to get to the phone when it rings out (phone settings voice mail or contact the provider)
I cannot get it to ring at all ever on the first ring, its always at the very beginning of the second especially from sleep mode or suspended)

I found the AutoDPDMode registry key here:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\TureFFS_G31 and
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\TureFFS_G32
So, what are they? I guess there are related to ExtendRom and Storage Card.....
So, why disable it? Any effects afterwards???

How did you get the original phone?
I tried the suggestions on the other thread where you need to change something in the registry, but that just disables the video messaging leaving a blank part on the screen. I want what you have, the original phone skin when I first turned my Universal ON after a hard reset. This original phone skin disappeared after I performed a soft reset.
From the wiki:
To set or remove the operator phone skin
The setting is at 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin'
The 'Enabled' DWORD value can be set to '1' to show the operator skin or '0' to show the default skin

Thanks for the reply, I am not sure if this was the one I tried before from one of the threads. How about you? Have you tried this registry tweak?
I did it by not installing any of the extended rom except operator settings, and the bluetooth patch.
my device boots up with 31mb of RAM available if all start ups and today screens are disabled.
I dont know how to do it otherwise.
I believe the hack mentioned above or similar on how to do it is posted on WIKI.

He guys this is not helping us a bit out of the problem. This has nothing to do with the problem some of us are facing regarding the ringer going off after a 2 to 3 sec delay, making you loose precious seconds to answer the phone before the call gets routed to your operator voice mail system.
And the suggestion that you have to alter the settings regarding the handover time for an unanswered call or the other advising to just cancel the handocer to voice mail is also not helping us.
Brgds, Adhoc.
Please focus on that one !!
Hi,
AutoDPD is Auto Deep Power Down for DOC. I think it takes longer to wake it up from this state and thus it takes longer to ring.
buzz
Radio Rom 1.08 Rings Quickly - but the person on the oher end can't hear you immediately
Rom 1.06 takes a bit longer berfore it rings but you can talk straigt away
The best enhancement if you are not going to use video or 3G speeds is to set you Band to GSM or WCDMA and NOT AUTO, in Phone Settings
Obvioulsy if you have it on WCDMA and there is no 3G coverage you wont get signal

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

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 ??

24 hour clock and uk style date and splash screen

Hi, i have just upgraded to Windows Mobile 6 the black 2.5 edition.
Whilst I was doing it i had my memory card left out which had applications on it, now when I put it back, the applications are not there..? I copied all data from active sync > explore (except my windows mobile device) and then I copied it back after upgrade. I am not fussed that the programs are gone, it would be good to get them back though, and since the card was not inserted during the upgrade, the application files must still be on the card somewhere taking up space...?
Anyways, I can't seem to get the 24 hour clock on it and also can't change the date to the UK style e.g. 24/04/2007, it is stuck in american style e.g. 04/24/2007. Any answers...?
Is Windows Mobile 5 applications supported by Windows Mobile 6? Can I have links to Windows Mobile 6 downloads please
Also , I do not like the boot screen, I want to put a picture of my wife and son, how do I do that? Sorry I am an intermediate user.
Please read the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
before you get abused.....
Couple of pointers though, you might want to check your country is actually set to UK, rather than the default US.
When you install Black you wipe out the entire OS, the application files will be on the card, but the shortcuts in the OS that you find in the menu's and the programs directory will not. Search the card to see if there is actually anything on it at all.
You cant actually copy installed Apps with ActiveSync, it doesnt work that way, you can use it to re-install apps.
Most WM5 apps will work with WM6, but some will not and some will have odd behaviour because the programming interface isdiffeent to WM5.
But please, read the Wiki
Sorry, unable to help with the card issue.
But, the 24 hr clock & date is in settings, regional settings & set to english (uk).
The splash screen is explained in Mr Vanx upgrade guide, where it is explained re first & second screens.
Hope this helps & sorry if you have already completed or read the guides
Or, leave settings on US and choose (in Settings, System, Regional Settings):
Time: HH:mm:ss and you're on 24hr clock,
Date: dd-MMM-yy and you're on European date.
And if someone flames you for asking, screw that
Thanks very much. The ony things I need to do now is fix the wifi, it doesn't turn on..?
Also, the start bar sometimes hides....
and about the applications on the card. they are still there under "program files" and can be opened but some of them - registration fails. The shortcuts are not in the menu though...
Also how can I add a running programs shortcut on the bottom like I had on WM5..I can't seem to do it....
Sorry for sounding so dumb...

Hmmm, there is a known issue with wifi settings getting wiped out, there are a couple of threads about it in Hermes upgrading, Olipro and pof are working on a fix that they say should be out in a few days.
Dont know about the start bar hiding, havent seen that myself, as for the apps, I would say maybe install them again to the same location to put all your shortcuts back, technically you will just be putting the same files on the storage card and any settings that went on the card should still be there.
I cant find a way to add running programs either, go into settings/memory/running programs or use the taskman program. If anyone else has seen a way to add running programs to the softkey setup I would be quite grateful too.
Its not about sounding dumb, you dont - you're just lacking the necessary info, its just if you ask questions that have been answered elsewhere people figure you are just being lazy or ignorant especially if they are the same kinds of questions that people keep on asking that can be answered by doing an advanced search and selecting show posts instead of show threads.
Just keep at it, you will get there in the end.

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....
Updated no problem, got the wifi problem from the today screen, also my bluetooth isnt working, anyone else got this problem?

Yes I am afraid it is not possible to disablethe wifi from the today screen, you will have to use the comm manager.
What problems u have with bluetooth?
I have beentesting it, like sending files, images, headsets and no rpoblems at all.

Just one thing, you probably know that, receiving files via bluetooth is disabled by default. You will have to enable it via the registry.

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.

[Q] 3G connection with ProjectAndroid2.2Froyo.112210

Hi,
I am new and just installed Android ProjectAndroid2.2Froyo.112210 on my HTC Touch Pro 2 phone. Once I had the 3G connection with the Dutch KPN working but after a reboot of the phone, I can not manage to get it working again. Wifi and BT are ok except the 3G connection.
Did a 'to default reset' and tried several APN setting but none of them turn the 3G connection back to live.
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Rick.
Does the cell radio function? In other words, can you make/receive calls/texts?
If yes, then the APN settings are a good thing to look at - also, do you have a 3g icon with up/down arrows next to the signal strength meter?
One other good question to ask - does your provider require a proxy to access the 'net?
Yes, I can call and recieve calls. Also sms messages are working fine.
The only thing which is missing is the G3 data connection icon and actually the datalink.
No, the provider does not need a proxy setting. As I wrote in my start, I had it working good but just after a reboot without any changes on the APN parameters, it didnt come back again.
Thanks for your reply Arrrghhh!

Hrm. May want to try with a new/fresh data.img. If you rename your existing data.img, a new one will be created during boot. See if it helps... unfortunately deleting that file has fixed so many odd issues, it's not even remotely funny.
Okay, I will give it a go when comming back from my trip next week.
I did remove all files a couple of times and re-installing the Android software but maybe not all data has been removed? At least it did not solve the problem.
By the way, could it be caused by having the system on the SD card rather than in the phone memory? And could it be related to the type of phone selected during boot time? I am using the HTC Touch Pro 2 and not selecting the Tilt-2 but the ?210 (forgot the name and the phone is off) due to the fact that the keyboard is wrong with the tilt-2 option.

Ehm, you can wipe your SD card all the times you want, but this won't solve anything if the APN is wrong or if your carrier requires user/pass, proxy or whatever else.
So first go check you actual APN configuration in WinMo, get a paper, copy it down piece by piece, then get back to Xdandroid and modify/create a new one, checking all the settings are properly set.
Have a nice trip.
@Wind,
your right but again, it has been working with a certain set of parameters but just after a reboot without any change on APN, the phone did not want to reconnect on 3G.
Thanks for your wishes. Will get back when I return.
do not use this version modules-2.6.27.46-01232-gb7033df.tar.gz , zImage-2.6.27.46-01232-gb7033df, change it.
@muziling,
I did update the phone with your advised release and re-started the phone again. No result. Due to low battery the phone went down and had to re-charge. When the battery was full again, turned on the phone and guess what, I had a 3G icon.
Just to be sure that it was not a lucky shot (but I was thinking it) I decided to reboot the phone again and ships.... the 3G icon did not show up again.
No change inwhatever parameter was made during the reboot session. This means that the 3G performance is intermittend and depeding on a certain condition which I do not know how to find. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
I have a similar problem. After a fresh install, the 3G connection works exactly the first time, I boot into android. After a reboot, the 3G connection mostly does not work. I cannot figure out, which conditions have to be met, to get 3G working. Its just pure luck to me.
btw, I have a german rhodium.
try this version, it works perfect on my rhod400
