i really want to upgrade to wm 6.
my htc tytn does seem to run slugish with wm 5.(i have done some updates)
i use the USA cingular network
rom 1.18.255.3
radio 1.35.00.11
protocol ver 32.68.7020.10h
extrom ver 1.18.255.106.
i have done a lot of searching on the forum and have seen some programs have problems. some of these have fixes like slingbox.
i want to make sure that these programs will work after the black 2.5 upgrade. so far black 2.5 seems to be the main one people like.
here is a list of programs i am worried about.
any feed back would be great.
thanks
1.sling box. (will all ver of sling box work witht the patch? what made it stop working? would that effect any other programs?)
2.tomtom ver 6 (i really hope this works still)
3.google earth
4.vnc
5.bluetooth gampad
6.webcamera plus/cool camera
7.Implus
read the wiki and do some searches before posting a new thread please
i have read the wiki for a lot of things and the many new rom updates
and read and searched a good handful of threads.
i am not asking for anything big
just a small yay or nay. on some of the listed programs.
so hence the new thread.

If you actually took the time to read for a while you'd know that with any ROM some apps will be buggy, and then along comes some fixes. Stick with WM5. If you don't have time to investigate what you're getting into, don't waste your time flashing a new ROM unless you know before-hand that you're gonna run into problems. How about this. Try a ROM, add the apps you want. If you run into problems work through them like EVERYONE else, because your configuration wont be the same as someone else's, and IF YOU TOOK THE TIME TO READ THREADS you'd already know what apps are buggy with WM6, and the ones not listed you can add if you experience a problem. That's how the whole problem/fix thing works. Sorry. I'm just sick of these threads everyday from people wanting to know some magical setup or which ROM is TEH BESTEST cause they just want a finished product and don't care about the learning process. When you make the jump to flash your device, you become a "tester" like everyone else. It's not rocket science, but it's not finger paints either.

cool thanks
ronfin44,
i "READ" the posts i know there are bugs.(hence the question on the programs)
why would i risk a bricked phone or waste any extra time if some one else has already found out the needed info. most of the programs i asked about are some what common. it would not be so crazy to think there are a few people here that have tried and have some feed back.
based on the feed back i will decide if i want to go farther.
is it too much to come up with a risk analysis before committing to a project?
my god if asking for some feed back on a small list was such a sin why even have a forum.
"Risk annalysis". When you decide to do something like this there's a risk, but an app that may not be "buggy" for one, may be "buggy" for another. Try 2.5, load your apps, and see if everything runs fine. It's usually not the apps that cause problems but the development of the ROM, ie a ton of fixes that follow once one has been released. The apps with a history are posted ALL over this forum. If you haven't seen any of yours then why not try the ROM and see? It's not magic. If you run into a problem, post it and we'll help ya work it out. The forum gets cluttered with so many threads asking questions that could be answered by hanging around and doing a lot of reading and using the search feature. I know the search function isn't perfect, but it works.
Advice; load 2.5, load your apps. Good luck. If you run into some problems, check the 2.5 thread FIRST for an answer, if not, POST IN THAT THREAD about the problems you're having with THAT ROM and people will be happy to help. It just keeps the forum cleaner.
I can report that IM+ 4.3 works without crashes or any downtime, although it drains the battery like a mofo (didn't on WM5), it works 1000x better than it ever did on my 8125 with WM5.0.
Edit: other versons of im+ 4.9 ect. will crash / lock up your hermes on WM6.0 roms so be aware you MUST use 4.3 or higher.
I've posted this before
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=304936
but now I have another problem, no Ringtones whatsoever
I can play the ringtones on my WM Player, My Alarm works, System Notification noises work but when I receive a SMS or phone call NO SOUND
Pls Pls help me I'm really desperate, very desperates for any ideas, anything PLEASE!!!!
PS: I've attached some of my reg files if you need more infor pls do not hesitate to ask. Thanking you in advance
PPS: I'm using Wisbar Advance+Desktop, also Profile for Windows Mobile 2.2.0(Build 672)
which version OS are you using
Its in the sig.
I assume you have gone to sound and notifications, notifications tab and selected new sms or voice call and then made sure a sound is selected and that the appropriate tick boxes are ticked... and that the tones you want are the right type of file and placed in the right folders?
ppl ere won't help! why?
read this paricularly point 2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=221545
simplest way before begging, help urself. hard reset the bugger.
now do ur sounds work? then its the apps or u have done something to it
if it still doesn't work, send it back
if u want help, start by helping urself n change the f*#kin heading
sick to death of noobs crying n whinging n complaining with pls help... pls pls pls pls help
no amount of begging is going to help, be clear, be precise, be concise
oh yeah, rtfw or search the forums and stop begging, its sickening, annoying and frustrating
What an Arse Hole- 'SIMPLE SIMON'
You know Simon 'Simple Simon' you were once a newbie too so get off your high horse before you fall flat on you f***king face
What a jerk, I'm asking for Help, nicely because I thought this was a friendly forum that someone can help me. I did search but didn't find an answer, that what's new threads are for, you arse hole
Yes I've check the notification box, yes its the right type
It plays when I press the play button, but when I received a call or SMS, NO SOUND
Noone is asking you for your precious time if you dont want to damn well give it, bottom line is when you see a thread you don't like, see the door arse hole TAKE A HIKE
I agree the title is going to get peoples backs up considering its only a few sounds which do not work.
Do the sms files actually play manually in media player , are they corrupted?
Try selecting no sounds ok you way back out and then turn them all back on. (might reset any duff reg entries)
Failing that a hard reset will probably be quickest way to sort it?

Well to start with you can tell us what you have installed and have you chnaged any reg keys???
If you dont give information how the heck do you what help.
Please help my phone is broken
How many poeple are going to help me on that one!!! you get the hint! When you give no useful information, you get no useful replies!!!!
What The F**********
If you read my first post I told you what i've install and even uploaded some of my registery files
what else do you want from me!!!!!
Problem that I see is that RickyJune has posted many My Phone won't work - here's no information but I want a psychic to fix it for me because I'm too lazy to research for my self threads.
Everytime I see a RickyJune thread I almost know the first response will be 'please give more information' or something of that nature.
That's so not f***king true

I did search, and if you do a search and come up with the answer I'll be f***king surprise
Secondly I did give you all the info, my signature tells you what phone and OS im using, I posted my registry file that I thought was useful and I told you what software I'm running. and said if you need more pls ask
ITS ALL THERE IN MY FIRST POST JERK FACE IF YOU CAN BE BOTHERED TO READ!!!!!
God you people are half-harden b*****ds
Yeah many people who could help have become hardened to the "Pls Help" posts.
If you search for a particular problem (BTW Use the Google search as well on this forum) and can't find any answers then it's most probable that the problem is just peculiar to yourself.
Have you done a hard reset and do you still have the problem on a 'clean' install?
Oh my God a decent human being
thank you Wam7,
I decided to Hard Reset tonite when I get home, but its the last resort I thought maybe someone had any ideas before I did that, I wish I didn't bothered asking now,

Well for starters you can quit with the triple posting of threads for the same problem... and then a better subject to the thread... And then smaller letters... If you dont recieve a lot of replies from ones with the right titles its because no one has your answer, as its more than likely 3rd party software causing your issue, this is why the hard reset corrected your problem... be more descriptive, im sure you have more than that piece of junk wisbar advance installed on your device.. If you want answers it helps to know everything, ALL software installed, etc....
hello all, I upgraded to Shadow and it's a great rom, but is anyone having trouble with just mms messages? I can send them fine and i can receive them, but my phone won't play the sound or show the video/picture without me manually saving the file and opening it with a media player. Can anyone help with this issue? Are there some special settings that i need for the new updated mms software in shadow. My carrier is Cingular/Att. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

You beat me to it.
I was just going to say something similar, but I would of added all kinds of nice words, because we're supposed to be nice to noobs, no matter how much stupid clutter they add to the forums.
And by no means would I drop an f-bomb.
Hi guys.
A noob here. Please be patient and just look trough my simple request.
I've got no clue on what spl, unsigned, signed, etc. word means.
I'm getting the diamond touch and wants it running as smooth as possible, but there are tons of different updates here which all says, do this spl, dont use unsigned, etc. So many different technical words that i have no clue on.
Is there a thread with some short explanations?
I'm not stupid so i should be able to read my way trough it and understand it. I just really want a fair chance of getting an update that suits my phone perfectly.

If you're happy with your device's performance then you don't really need to worry about what any of these things means
You should also use a more descriptive name for your post next time!!
Hi,
Also a noob... but I found all my answers here.
There you go:

Im going through and editing all my posts to delete them and I wash my hands of this thread, good luck
Detroit Doug
"Im done, ... was trying to help but YOU wanted a fight ... I dont care Im not arguing with someone"
Uh seems like I heard that before.
Uh, you are arguing dude.
"nor was I wanting one"
didn't say you were. -- still sorry though, maybe one day you'll understand.
I can hope that, though.
"apology, funny didnt see one"
by saying, more than one
****I was poking fun at myself****
be humble in what you do... (me and you)
I'm not perfect...
...and need to be forgiven of those sins.
I tend to forget, that people [including myself]...
so again I will ask you to let it go man.
I am looking for help,
I really don't see how you you don't see that,
I keep trying to put my thread back on track and you are hung up ~ way ~ over thinking this situation
me and doug apparently don't get along
we just don't see eye to eye
too bad
end of that conversation, ... Please
no one probably wants to associate with me now.
but I do still have a problem with my phone, and I am looking for help
I'm sorry to all forum members and guests who had to witness this.

I have that rom, but do not use manilla,
I'm assuming this is what you're question is about?
The weather on the manilla screen?
I use the titanium "today" screen weather panel.
