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 ??

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.
i've updated my phone with the kavana 6.1 rom- now my Internet sharing doesn't work- and i hate that when i sync with my computer it reads my phone as a dopod so the dashe's icon doesn't come up- can any one help with either of these problems
I flashed this rom for my girlfriends phone. Running into a lot of different issues. Not many options to customize the preferences either. However, hopefully these wonderful developers will create fixes, if they do not exist already. If they do they are probably scattered throughout the thread.

I think this happens with each upgrade because you're basically cleaning out your previous memory and starting fresh.
I don't have an answer for you regarding the internet sharing option.
However, if you want to get your old rom back you can go to T-Mobile website here is the link:
Link wasn't allowed but go to tmobile and click on support you'll see the first phone is the dash
Just go to update software. This may cure both of your issues if you don't want to bother with the current rom you have installed. However, you are still taking risks flashing the new rom. Good Luck.
I've got almost the same issue. Everything with SYNC works except for my internet sharing. It will not connect. I ave internet working on the phone, text works, it syncs when I connect the phone to the computer, I just can not use the internet sharing.
When I select connect on the phone I get that the computer is trying to acquire network address and then local area connection 6 has no or limited connection. I don't get it.

As you know, you have to first cut off your local connection server first, before turning on the Internet sharing on your mobile device. If not, it will never work, but Internet sharing works like a charm on my home network................!

Why on earth would you go back to Tmobile rom. This rom is far superior. All your issues will get worked out. That's just part of updating rom. have you read any threads on this.
I don't claim any great knowledge but does the connections settings in Activsync have anything to do with it.
I've been using this phone for a year, I use the internet sharing all of the time, mostly for work, it' s actually why I bought the phone. Now after I loaded WM6.1 I can not get the internet sharing to work. I've tried everything I've found on here, any ideas.
As some devs are aware there are those of us who need 3G disabled on Android for our devices. Using the option to "Only Use 2G Networks" does not resolve this. (edit: also, neither does the *#*#INFO#*#*)
I thought it might be helpful to create a thread about it so that if anyone comes up with a solution or if a particular rom build can address this issue (I'm not an expert but it seems like it will have to be a rom based fix? which is why this isn't in software development) there's a place for it.
I use AT&T and have validated my APN settings and tried all manner of selecting the "use only 2g" option (restarting, manually selecting networks, automatically selecting networks, etc.) but it always goes back to 3G.
This can be disabled as if I disable 3G through WinMO it works and HaRET seems to behave when I use it that way (I still select 2g only though).
Personally I use HardSPL 3.56 and Radio 1.71.09.01.
Please help us out Perhaps we could start a bounty -- I'd like to start with $10 for a validated fix.
If someone would be willing to walk me through a build process for their rom perhaps I can test/fumble through C myself and create a "patch" or something that can be applied to other builds. Please feel free to PM me if you can do that and I'll keep any information on this thread.
Thanks for reading this and any help you can provide or direction you can point me in! This is a great community!
---------------- UPDATES -----------------
As reported by Softec 2G/3G switching is working for Polaris (Pola100) using KaiserDroid 2.0
http://www.homecncfun.com/kaiserdroid/
Thank you slm4996!
I am trying to use KaiserDroid 2.0 on my Kaiser (Kais160) but thus far haven't gotten data to work. Stay tuned.
Hi
Thanks for starting this thread I am using the same phone (kaiser 130) same hard spl 3.34 and same radio.
I too live in an area where I need to disable 3g to have a usable phone, and have found the same - disable in Windows Mobile and load via haret and then android never tries 3g.
I like the idea of the reward, I'll match your $10 so that makes a $20 bounty on this one, I can test for anyone if they're trying to fix it.
There's a few different ways to accomplish this. All do the same thing but some may be easier for you to do based on your experience. I don't know if the ROMs need to be rooted but given that these are ports you should have no issues with that. You can search through my posts, the various threads or PM me if you need help with that.
Basically you are going to corrupt the (going off of memory here) /etc/apn-config.xml file to point to nonexistent APNs. You don't need to do both of these, these are just different ways to do this:
1.) Download Droidsans Tweaks Lite from Market (free) and you can use it to disable the APN, or you can just to to the APN settings and change the APN name
2.) Download APNdroid (free) and toggle connectivity
There's other ways, but giving you two options should be enough. If you are good enough at messing with ROMs, you can always just delete the apn-config.xml (or whatever it's called) in /etc (which is in the rootfs.img) and it will never connect.
I don't think these 2 actually turn off 3g just the data, my problem is the 3g signal is too weak to be reliable so I need to force 2g completely, not just disable the apn
then can't you just get one of the various (curvefish for example) widgets to toggle 2G/3G or go to settings and say 2G only?
Currently only via Haret

Well the only thing I can suggest is via haret.
1. Via windows goto com manager and disable 3g, and confirm that you have edge showing and connected.
2. Boot haret and you will be limited to edge.
short and sweet.....
the speed is decent enough for me to consider a nexus or desire on ATT's 850 mhz HSDPA/4g

ps. I hope your thread pushes for a solution via nand b/c its important.

Sorry n the dsiabling 3g when runing android does not work on the kaiser from our experience, the widget is just a shortcut to the menu.
As noted in post 7 and I tught above the only soluton is to run via haret and. Disable it in windows mobile to re-enable reboot the phone and enable in windows then run haret again.
Can we change the thread to - Android via Nand on Kaiser Disable 3g solution required or something clearer
I would love to be able to run via nand
I have this problem too, i can't disable the 3G signal, i think this problem is only in Kaiser.
i like if someone can "fix" this for us.
Thank you guys for the suggestions. HaRET does work if the WinMO ROM hosting can disable 3G (which most have a switch or something).
I have googled for some time searching for a toggle/switch that disables 3G but as mentioned have only found ones that point to the menu rather than actually disable 3G.
As mentioned the menu does not work.
There's a $20 combined bounty on this already! Please help us out!!
Newest KaiserDroid
I am using a new RIL in KaiserDroid 2.0, have you tried it yet?

If it works I can backport it to older roms till this one is more complete. Thank you for all you feedback on the KaiserDroid thread.
I'll give it a try and let you know...

You're welcome. Do you want to keep using 2.0 or should I backport it for you?
Thus far with KaiserDroid 2.0 I haven't been able to get any data to work. I didn't test making/receiving phonecalls. I plan on posting thoroughly soon but I want to play with it some more (perhaps I've done something ignorant, haha )
I've been using HaRET to test and left my MicroSD at home today will have to try more later this evening. I will also check out KaiserDroid 1.1.

Hello, it would be nice to have the opportunity to try different rom, can you tell us what to do if you would be very grateful.
For your rom I noticed that it is a bit slow, the data in WiFi will not work and above all the bateria takes very little.
Charged 100% no WiFi and only a few calls, it was switched off after 6 hours.
I tried the version 2.0, now I have downloaded version 2.1. Test and let you know.
Thank you very much.

Please read the thread for the rom you use!! These are all known issues with all ROMs flashed to NAND and to some extent under HaRET. the appropriate fixes and/or workaround have been posted in the thread. I am working a howto to back port the RIL but if you start poking around in the sysinit.rc it should be fairly obvious what files you need.
keep in mind that KaiserDroid 2.0/2.1 are ALPHA release and as such contain bugs.
Hello slm4996, it was not my intension held high controversy, I just wanted to clear up why do not I was using your rom and use the 3G off on another rom.
I looked at the file sysinit.rc as you recommended and I changed the line:
service ril-daemon /system/bin/rild -l /system/lib/libhtcgeneric-ril.so -- -d /dev/smd0
with
service ril-daemon /system/bin/rild
Then I replaced the file /system/bin/Rild from your new rom and it worked perfectly.
I can make and receive calls on 2G without problem. I have not tried the APN but I'll try to short
thank you very much.
I finallt got my wifi connections working by changing my security to wpa/psk so I got that sorted out.
Was wandering if a couple things worked.
1)Sound?? Any sort what so ever.
2)The light on the keyboard..Is there a way to turn it on( ) or is it just not working yet??
3) The number keys on my keyboard are just soooo out of wack..No numbers and the symols it put's out don't corrispond with the symbols on the keys themselves..Does that have something to do with the provisioning or is that not working as well??
I'm using [MJG]Rhod.2.2.BLAZN.072110 if that makes any difference.
Hoping for some answers and I appreciate it.

You should definitely read thru the posts for everything you install first most devs tell you what works and what doesn't, but...
No sound in android for touch pro 2( meaning no matter what build of android you install, no matter who developed it atm there is no external speaker sound) other than in speaker-phone I think
Atm you cannot control your keyboard lights thru android, nor the hard keys you have on your phone, so make sure that both turn off before you run android off your SD card to avoid battery drainage.
As for the number key situation I have no idea, Im running 2.2 froyo by project android and I have no problems whatsoever with my keys...
and actually i just saw your forum siggy, if you have a tmobile touch pro 2 you need to get the fix for your keyboard. Search is your friend.

You need to read a bit more bud.
1. No
2. No (Turn it on before booting android and it will stay on 100% of the time while android is on but this is the only workaround currently)
3. Read up on FAQ about your startup.txt file. There is a cmdline that controls what keyboard you are using.
I appreciate the help folks. It's a shame about the sound tho..
Anyway..Found out my problem with the buttons..I was thinking that the provisioning dealt with the network, so I installed the cab for AT&T..That one didn't work(keyboard issues) so I installed the T-Mo cab and it's all fixed. Works like a charm.lol
As for the keyboard light..Mine just works. I didn't think I turned anything on in WinMo prior to booting, and it works like it should(slide on/off)..or at least I think it does..lol

just put the .apk in your andboot/androidapps folder, and when you use the update tool, before you choose run android, go to meu>apps and make sure you app is checked in the lil box next to it. to transfer it to your phone you could get a bluetooth dongle for your computer, transfer it that way, or upload it to a filehosting site.from your computer n then download it from your phone
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
