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.

I know how. Let me look for the instructions. It works fine on my dash. just give me a few.

good luck. Worked for me. Might have to play around with it to get it to work. You don't have to reboot the whole phone to show the new network name. just go into the communications manager and hit 1 (or turn off phone) then re-enable it)
It works but switches back whenever u soft reset. I don't see the big deal to be honest.

not a big deal because it is not happening with you.
i was wondering if we can somehow edit the operator's name into something else. like.. "blah is blah"
Click the link in the 4th post. It explains how to change the operators name.

Hi,
Just upgraded my rom, and for some reason, when i go the the orangeworld site in pie, it only displays a text version. No graphics or anything.
Any ideas?
all these fantastic genius's here, and no ideas?
I have noticed this too, and it must be something to do with what PIE reports itself as for User Agent.
The sites work fine with Opera, but cant see if that reports as Mozilla for whatever.
We need someone with WM5 to look....

I use PIE+ and tried all the user agents, but no change. Also noticed gprs/3g connection is real unstable! I'm in london, so definately a good coverage!
Erm....?
Any ideas?
What is the URL? Assume you have "show pictures" set etc ? I have black 3.1 on T mobile (well, virgin) and connection seems stable. This is on a m3100
Yeah I noticed this before too... I've only installed Black up to 3.0, so it the problem existed in at least version, maybe earlier.
http://wap.orange.co.uk for orange world. WEorks in opera fine. in PIE every other site i look at displays correctly, only orange so far is appearing as plain text.
As for the connection, i'm using the latest radio upgrade. to be honest, the connection was pants when i had the standard os installed, but then upgraded the radio, which improved it. But now i upgraded the os, the connection is worse than ever.
Also, Skype refuses to log in!
I'm pretty much ready to the sell piece of $h1t on ebay and get something else!!
So nobody able to help me?????
I don't use Orangeworld. Sorry. Have not had this issue. What apn are you using, the orangewap one or the orangeinternet one?

I dont think its down to that in any case, coz it works fine with Opera.
yeah I know, just grasping at straws. I seem to remember that some of the orange sites only worked via the orangewap apn. never use them so dunno really.
Hi, sorry am unable to help as I have same on orangeworld, but would just recommend that before you sell, you try reverting the radio version to 1.38.0.10 or .01.
Makes it a whole different phone, no dropped signals, better battery.

Yeah, no problems - orangeworld works fine in PIE for me WITH graphics (after I fixed it of course!!)
First I would recommend the latest Orange Radio ROM which is 1.38.00.01 - works best for Orange UK (this is not necessary for my fix to work though.)
See my cab file which installs the Orange UK MMS and internet settings as well as fixing the voicemail icon issue and the orangeworld graphics issue
If anyone needs it, I suppose I could create a cab file containing just the fix for orangeworld on PIE
Ok, here is the cab to just fix the Orangeworld site on Orange UK - it also fixes the voicemail icon since this is kinda essential
This should work on all WM6 ROMs on Orange UK
ps. you DO NOT need this file if you are using the cab file in the post above
Thanks alot Rabdo!!! I'll try the radio downgrade when i get home!!! Orange now works a treat!!!
Thanks!!
Just a quick question. What was the problem? It almost looked like it didn't pick up the css or something, but the strange thing was the fact every other site i looked at was fine. Would be nice to know exactly what was up with it.
rabdo! my wife can have your babies if you like!
radio fix and settings cab have sorted me right out!
keep getting the "H" symbol. did a quick test and was close to 500kbs! not sure how reliable that is, but just browsing now is a dream, and no connection dropped!
thanks a lot!

I have a similar problem on 3 UK in that none of the icons on Planet 3 show up - is this cab something generic that might fix my problem? My phone is working nice and smoothly and the moment so don't want to install it just in case.....
Hello everyone.
My first post here, although I have been an avid reader for a while now. I'd like to say thanks to vp3G and others for the excellent cooked ROMS.
My question: I just started using the new official WM6 ROM from AT&T. My fiance and myself both use AT&T 8525's, and I loaded the new ROM on both of our phones. Now, we can be sitting right next to one other on our couch, and her phone will read as having full bars with the 3G icon to the left of them. Then I'll look at my phone and I have full bars with the E icon next to them.
Would anybody here have any idea as to why? Identical phones, with identical ROMs and identical radio versions, yet she gets 3G while I only seem to get Edge, with the phones sitting side-by-side on the coffee table.
I'm confused on this one ...any ideas? Thanks a bunch in advance for any help and for the great site!
-D.

Yes, they are the same. We bought the phones a few months back and both shipped with one of the new AT&T SIM cards with the 3G logo on it. I used to get sporadic 3G at home with the older radio versions, but she has always had rock solid 3G on hers. It's weird, I know.

Well, since you looked under the settings>phone; you have the enable band tab reg edit right? If so make sure this is on Auto.
Couldn't tell from your post if you had this exactly.

I'm feeling kind of silly right now...I'm not sure what you're referring to. I open up the com manager in the lower right of the today screen, and then the left soft key becomes a "settings" tab. Opening that just takes me to the phone setting menu (Phone, Services, Network, etc...).
I haven't made any changes to the ROM, just using what it had available.

Ok. Go to Start-Settings-Phone
See if there is a tab on the bottom that says Band...
If you do then make sure that it says Auto on both.
If not then check out the hermes wiki and go to tweaking the hermes registry...
If your are using the 'official' att rom, and if it's anything like the old roms, then the band tab will not be there...
Hay guys I'm new here so please forgive me if this has already been addressed but I could not find anything on this matter . I'm trying to get full web access with t-zones using the settings on the Dash Wiki and can't seem to get it to work . Does this work around still work ? Or am I just doing something wrong ? Thanks in advance for you help .
Use the search feature at the top right of the forum. It will help you find what you are looking for.....
Too many of these threads already floating around, searchig would be more proper.
Still workin just fine for me, as stated above hit search for some step by steps...That question has prolly been asked as much as God is asked "why...?".

Change your phone on the site to a V3 RAZR or the like.. The option should pop up then to use T-zones.

hi
this is probably a stupid question, the last time i did any rom updating was with an old UK SDA II to some imate rom.
ok,
i recently purchased a used BT s620 phone which is locked to BT.
do i need to get it CID unlocked and SIM unlocked??- ive already got it application unlocked.
how much would i be looking to pay in order to get it CID and SIM unlocked??
the reason i ask these questions is because in KAVANA's post it says the wizard does all the unlocking?? does that mean i wont need to do any CID and SIM unlocking??
cheers

you are correct. Kavana has built in the Jump SPL CID bypass function so it bypasses "reading " the CID when installing the ROM and you dont' need your phone to be SIM unlocked to install it either.
I'm also a BT user and flashed with Kavana Ricky Remade, just follow the instructions, Hard Reset s620 before, no need for any extra software, the only problem i have is MMS doesn't work but then i never have used MMS.

eT9.cab sets the uk keyboard layout, some of my layout are not correct don't get :;
Follow the instruction on link.
There is also a bit on the Kavana thread about this.
I still get the beep when the screen goes out as the wi-fi disconnects, just turn the others off through choice, i hate phone noises.
Except obviously the noise of my Pendulum ringtone and the classic WM text tone.
DUDE!
pendulum rule!!
which one is it??
you got propane nightmares yet??
oh yeah- i figured out how to get rid of the wifi beep with an ingenius idea.
ill post you a link of my thread.
Visions as it always get's me going.

well, i know the file- ding.wav
ive found it in the windows folder of the fones memory.
my theory was just to replace it with an empty silent ding.wav (attached)
but i cant edit the read only files i just found out- or can you? maybe a different file editor.
what was your way

I thought that was the idea, use Resco Explorer find the file in question check properties "action/properties" to make sure not protected read only & copy over it. "Keep a copy of original sound just in case"

Hi, first time poster, short time reader (Hey, only had the Dash for a week). Previous phone was a Q on Verizon.
Kavana image is wonderful and saved me from wanting to throw my Dash (with T-mobile image) against a wall.
Quick Question: Is the Dash Sim unlocked because we replaced the ROM? Or is it still carrier locked?
It's still locked.
Call your provider and ask for the unlock code.

In your cellular settings you will have to add the apn data to get the data going.
Can't help much more without knowing your provider.
Helps to download the Nokia Connections app.
If you are using it on other carriers, you will need to configure the APN. There are two ways to do it;
1. You can maunally add the APN of your carrier to the phone but you will not get MMS working.
2. You need an app called Network Setup from Nokia to switch the connections to your carrier if it is in the list. This will switch both data connection and MMS.

//Side-note// That little green thing is supposed to be an android? How? It looks more like a little green trash can or MAYBE an alien...
android (plural androids) + Noun
A robot that is designed to look and act like a human (usually male)
That thing looks like a human? Google has NO reason that they weren't able to do a search to make sure they knew what the word android meant... I mean, I guess it's a bit ironic... But that little green trash can is NOT an android.
Dont get me wrong, i like android, it has some features that complement me much better, i just wanted a phone that works and the lumia 900 works and looks great. My old lg optimus 2x just had crap for support and the OS that LG created was very buggy. Maybe someday i'll return to android but i wanted something that is smoother. so far so good.
Oh, to be clear, I like Android too... I was just pointing out that the little green thing isn't really an android by definition... I may have been inebriated at the time I posted that ;\
