hey everyone i recently purchased a cingular 8525 with wm5 and decided that it would be a good idea to upgrade to wm6 (don't know exactly why but i did it) anywho... after i did so i found out that the wifi does not work anymore and i'm new at this so i have no idea what could possibly be the prob. Before i upgraded the os, wifi worked like a charm didn't really have to configure it or anything just detect settings and available wireless signals etc and that was it. pleeeez ppl who ever knows what i'm talking about please pretty please help cuz this is annoying me
Hi
Which ROM did you upgrade to, also, did you flash HardSPL before that? which Radio ROM are you running, and does the WIFI actually turn on when you use the comm manager?
I upgraded to the WM6 Cingular USA version, I did not flash HardSPL before that. I assume that unless the upgrade from wm6 changed the Radio ROM I am running, I’m still running the same one that comes with the version of wm5 that came with the phone when I bought it (btw what is a radio rom? Sry for my ignorance) And yes the WIFI actually turns on when I use the comm manager in fact it all seems to work fine but I just cant access the internet with it, even though it detects a signal. It stopped working the moment I upgraded to wm6
After flashing roms I had the same problem..make sure under the tab network adapters the line that says My network cards connects to..is set on internet..most roms start out with it on work..that change always works for me
So i deceided to downgrade the rom from wm6 to wm5 and yes apparently it has something to do with the rom version because my wifi connection works again!! with the old version which is wm5, but the moment I upgraded again to v6 it stopped working and like I said everything in the settings seems to be working fine, there’s just no internet, I should just be happy with the old version of windows mobile but version 6 has some features that I really liked does somebody know why this is happening? and if yes is there a solution? It might b more obvious than I think but I really don’t know so I really appreciate those who post help and advise thank you!
Put it back to WM 6.0..we will figure out what is wrong. There are alot of really good people on this forum and the answer to your problem is here. WM 6 is so much better.
Thanx for the support and the advise. So i installed another version of wm6 this one seems to be for Dopod but at least the internet works!!, the one i previously installed was an official version of wm6 for cingular which like i said before, for some strange reason i was not able to use the internet with wifi my only concern with having this Dopod version is that... well... its for the Dopod and does not come with the features that cingular offers to AT&T/ cingular users like myself. But then again it seems like everything else works just fine I just wonder why the cingular version doesn't work?
Sounds like your a little new to this. Here one of the golden rules:check out the hermes wiki and learn alittle about the flashing process and the different roms and their settings. There are alot of good roms out there that set up for ATT users, like K's Rom ,which is what I've been using for months. Works fine right after flashing. It has the right amount of programs and tweaks. Do alittle research and it will be worth it. It may take a couple different roms to find what you are looking for. Make sure you HardSpl your phone(the guide of flashing is in the wiki) Good Luck
i second blackout128's post
read the wiki
install hard spl
flash to your hearts content!
although, make sure you read the threads first! good luck and welcome to hotel d'hermes!

What is it that you need help with? I have a 700wx and would love wm6.1, however, what would be the advantage of flashing to 6.1? and is there an unlocker available for the 700wx?

I'm very new to all of this, so I'm not really sure what the unlocker would be for. There is a way to load custom roms. It's extremely easy. I would like to get the 6.1 rom I have for the 750 on the 700wx, because I want the threaded sms embedded in the rom, and I would also like to get EVDO working correctly. I believe EDVO is not working correctly because of the verizon update. At the very least, I need a way to get it out of the current wm6 rom.
I have been able to add and remove files from the wm6 rom for the 700wx, but I am unable to dump it without errors. I have tried removing all of the files in the rom, and adding the files from the 750 6.1 rom. The rom will flash fine, but then 700wx sits at the bootloader. When I run nbinfo on the 750 rom it shows that it has a boot sector, but the wm6 rom for the 700wx does not.
Like I said, I'm very new to this. My progress so far has been trial and error.
NightRaven said:
I am currently trying to create a WM6.1 rom for the Treo 700wx. I have a working WM6 rom running now. However, there is an issue with EVDO not reconnecting after a disconnect. You have to soft reset the device for it to connect again. It will then run fine until EVDO times out, or you loose signal. I know verizon bastardized there EVDO implementation, and had to release a patch to correct there EVDO issue. I believe this patch was added to this rom, and is causing problems if you are running on another carrier. I'm running on alltel.
I am hoping an unbranded 6.1 rom will correct the issue. However, I am having trouble getting the 6.1 rom to boot after it has been flashed. I will give the 6.0 rom for the Treo 700wx to anyone willing to help. It runs much better than the stock rom.

I have a 6.1 rom and I'm able to get it to dump. I just can't figure out how to get it ported over to the 700wx.
Before you can flash custom roms to a phone you need to be able to unlock it. Thats why I asked if there was an unlocker for the 700wx, as far as I know there isnt one. I have been searching for one and havent found one as of yet.

The link in my first post is a custom wm6 rom. I was able to successfully flash it to my 700wx. It runs well with the exception of the intermittent evdo issue. All I had to do to flash it, was format my sd card as fat32. Copy the file to the sd card. Take the battery out of the phone. Reinsert the battery while holding the up volume key. The phone displays press up to update rom. Press up on the direction control. The phone will display checking sd card. Then it will show a screen with a progress bar that says downloading rm + bl or something to that effect. After the progress bar hit 100% the phone reboots, and you are running wm6. I never had to unlock my phone. I have confirmed that it works for Alltel, Sprint, Verizon, and Bell 700wx's. I would be really suprised if it didn't work for all of them.
NightRaven:
Interesting stuff. I'm going to have to DL it and take a look.
Couple of questions.
What AKU is this?
Does this have the Palm branded tweaks (IE: threaded messaging)?
Does this have SDHC support?
Where'd you get this ROM? (I suspect I know from where...or maybe I should say from who... )
You might also want to check out what we're doing over on TreoCentral. We have a WM6 ROM that seems to be working okay. I haven't used it a lot as I personally prefer the speed of WM5, but I'll probably start playing with it more at some point.

Not really sure. Does Sprint have the *228 option to activate a phone or update the PRL? That might help... You could also try one of the other options in Settings/Phone/Services tab/network.

How did you flash?
I haven't used this ROM yet, but I've used another WM6 Verizonized ROM, and had no problems with my Sprint Treo 700wx.
The WM6 ROM posted seems to be working great on my Sprint Treo 700WX. I flashed using the instructions provided in this thread. I've added the SDHC patch and am now running a 16 GB Treo 700wx!! I'm not getting the digital roaming message, indicated earlier in this thread and everything seems to be working the way it should.

I'm having the same problem. I flashed with WM6 and my phone no longer would connect to a Sprint tower, always on Digital Roaming. Also, under Settings > Phone > Services > Network I only had 3 options. Home, which got no signal at all. And two with the same name (I don't remember what it was now) but with A and B at the end, both of which would only do Digital Roaming.
So, I flashed back to ebag's Final ROM (http://discussion.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=164457) and now my Services > Network options are back to normal, but the Home Network Only gets no signal while the other two are Digital Roaming all the time.
Can anybody help with this? I've tried calling Sprint and updating the PRL, I'm at 20229 right now, but no help. Somebody else suggested I needed to reprogram my MSID and SID, but the MSID is still correct and Sprint says they never put anything in the SID part.
I don't know what else to do now. I'm gonna try real quick to flash back to the Stock ROM, see if that helps.
I'm open to any suggestions now. I've been 2 days stuck on 1xRTT and it's killing me .
I'm using the Alltel branded ROM and it seems to be working fine. I think there might be a little more battery drain than I am used to but that is ok. The ROM is certainly faster that the stock 700wx ROM. I have yet to put many programs back on it but the apps i have installed are working flawlessly (SPB Time, Phone Suite, Mobile Shell, Pocket RAR, Pocket Music, and WMTorrent). The MMS doesnt seem to be working though. I'm not sure if i just need to apply Alltel's settings or what. The fact that MMS is not working is not too upsetting as Alltel phone's have never had it to begin with anyway. Truth be told, it is an excellent port of the popular WM6 OS! Great Job!!!! I would just like to note that EVDO is working perfectly.

Do you have the Telus Navigator .cab? I am really looking for this. Thanks!
where did u find this cab for TELUS Navigator? can you send me this one?
I Think the Telus Navi work only with Telus dataconnection!! if you dont have that the software will not work right. I once tested the navigator from 1.97 Vodafone rom and it didnt work in my own cookt rom
and i guest that its was because it was made for Vodafone users with Vodafone dataconnections
You are better off installing tom tom or one of the other gps apps. much better than telus navigator, and wont use data!
Hi,...New here,
I have made the leap into modifying my phone's software enough to download "RUU_Vogue_4350_ALLTEL_WWE_3.10.671.1_RS3.42.30_NV2.02_PRL30031_SHIP.exe" from Software.alltel.com. Was this update supposed to "unlock" my GPS? If not, does anyone know how I can accomplish this? Once I get that going, who knows, I might go crazy and utilized some of the fabulous ROMs you all are offering!
Thanks
Yes that rom update is the official Alltel wm 6.1/ GPS update. It also has a 30 day trial for Alltel nav.
dont forget to go to settings>phone>location settings and turn it to "on"
And if your feeling real adventurous go over to ppcgeeks and try shadow-techs "super fast lock on" AGPS fix. Then download google maps and click use gps and you should be good.
P.S ( AGPS fix not nessissary to make it work, just gives you faster locks)
Goodluck!
Thank you both for your advice! I didn't realize I had to turn it on under settings or that I received the new program (alltel navigator). I am on my way now! I haven't tried the fast lock update you mentioned, but I did install the unlocker so I can give some new looks a shot. Any recommendations for roms to try?
Has anyone had any luck with the official 6.1 ROM and getting the internal GPS to work with a 3rd party program (specifically iGO 8)???

Mortplayer and TCPMP crash after loading WM 6.1 updates
I have just completed upgrading my OS to the latest 6.1 Pro and installed Conflippers Alltel ROM (Great ROM) however now mortplayer comes up freezes and then exits. Loaded TCPMP and it just crashes. I use NCH Pocket dictate and it had numerous errors on (Alltel) WM6.1 / LBS Update – Version 3.10.671.1 but after the Conflipper ROM, it works great. Is there an issue with WM6.1 and Mortplayer that anyone knows how to fix? Also, I did update Esmertec Jbed 20081203.2.1.cab that fixed the Java issues with the earlier version.
nfsfans rom
You should try out nfsfans roms here, imo
they are the best out there. They have all the new
touch flo features and are very stable.
He also does a very good job updating and supporting them.

+1 for NFSFAN's roms
Another vote for NFSFAN's rom. Only thing not working for me with alltel is mms.
HI
i have kaiser 130
I tried few diffrent android version but with evry version phone cant connect to network sometimes he connects for few minutes but not longer. With windows everything ok
I tried:
Incubus26Jc's Super Eclair Lite 2.1
Warm Donut RLS 5 with Kaiser updates integrated including battery
Im using
HardSpl 3.34
radio 1.70.19.09 (tried 1.70.18.02)
Protocol 25.83.40.02h
Maybe someone had same problem and can help me?
Sorry for my english.
i just checked i was editing nbh for Warm Donut RLS 5 with Kaiser updates integrated including battery
and i was using esclair not donut. (dum) Maybe in this is problem....
I has the same problem too ,waiting somebody give a method to solve this
Have you tried an older radio, such as 1.65.21.18?
No because in guide:"How to replace Windows Mobile with Android (Guide)" (sorry i cant paste link because im new user) is recommended 1.70.x and better here it is "#2 Does your Kaiser have a relatively new radio rom? If not then get one. Recommended to have 1.70.xx.xx and up. "
if it is radio fault so why on winMO with same radio working?
And one more thing kaiser with android finds not 02 but BTCellnet (in the beginning O2 was BTCellnet )
The same radio suggestion was made to me several days ago while trying to get audio working in android (via HaRET). Upping to 1.70.xx didn't fix my issues, but 1.65.xx did.
If you are able to test it in WM, you must still have WM installed. Are you booting android with HaRET?
No i think HAret if you installing to sdcard but im installing not in sdcard.
im doing all by this guide go here to read.
xda-developers > HTC Kaiser: Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III > Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development
> How to replace Windows Mobile with Android (Guide)
Yes, I know the sticky thread to which you have now twice referred. I am asking how you know wifi works in WM if you have replaced WM with android as the guide leads you to do.
There is no danger it trying an older radio regardless of what the guide suggests. I would respectfully suggest that you give 1.65.xx a shot, despite what the guide says. If the older one works, then you have solved your problem. If it doesn't work, you can flash 1.70.xx back on and try something else.
I am running Incubus's Super Eclair on my device and wifi works flawlessly. I am also able to do BT connections and hear audio. None of these worked when I tried 1.70.xx, so I use 1.65.21.18 instead.
em not wifi iwth wifi every thing ok but mobile newtwork dosent work
Roger that. My recommendation still stands, however.
Trying the alternate radio will take you less than 5 min total including d/l time. You can find it linked in post #3 of this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393182.
You could also try 1.71.09.01, which I see was posted several days ago.
thx m8 its working! just signal strength is bad but still....it works! one more time thank you m8!
m8?
What was your solution?
i have a similar problem. Cannot connect to the internet with 2g/3g, but wifi works. The latest rom did not solve my problem. Maybe i'll try older ones...
hi @all,
any news here?
I got the same problem.
At the moment I have running the version milanche has upped, because I thought it is running for him, so maybe it does also for me. but it doesn't.

(sorry, as a new user I can't make a link out of this)
Everything seems to be fine except mobile internet.
Edit:
Maybe I should inform you that I already have edited my APN-Settings. And I really think they should be ok. On WM6.1 these settings are working.
And I like to mention that I'm booting from SD.
Kernel may be ?...
Same problem with my phone. I have installed Froyo as explained in another post on my Kaiser TyTNII and everything works perfect except the phone network. I tried already around 5 diferent radios, with NO results.

I,m started MODEM application,tapped Connect-and looks like APN now working!
Let's see how long it works for you. I have the same setup as orcatrainer but mine works off and on some times. I must add, I have Simple Mobile. They are on the T-mobile network therefore, I cannot access 3G on my tilt. Playing with the 2G setting usually cause my phone to connect to APN until I turn the phone off. Then I have to struggle to get it to work again. I just put my sims back into my Blackjack 2 to access mobile data until this issue is fixed.
