Hi all,
Since I installed wm 6.5 (Rom Officiel), the option to answer phone automatically doesn't work anymore .
i'm sorry of that, because i'm a biker and it's very useful.
A hard reset (as asked by the service support) did not change anything.
they ask me now to return the device which seems to be a hardware problem no ?
Are you involved of that problem? any idea to solve it without sending it?
Thanks and Best regards from France
Humm !
I'm surprised that this fonction doesn't interest more people; because after quick investigation, i'm not alone with that problem using wm 6.5 .
Is that happen only with the french version?
I have the same problem with diamond 2 and wm 6.5. Did you find any solution?

Same problem here. Updated using UK Vodafone upgrade and now Auto Pickup cannot be selected.
Can anyone help as this is a big problem. If you have to touch your phone to answer a call while you are driving and you get caught, you are in big trouble.
Could someone check their registry
HKCU\ControlPanel\AutoPickUp
and tell us exactly what is in there. Mine is empty and I think this might be part of the problem.
Thanks

I just checked and mine is blank too...on a US-model T-mobile TP2 with the stock 6.1 ROM. I've never used the function before though, so I can't really say whether it is/was available to me...I'm not even sure where the option to use that is
You guys might want to check out the app in THIS thread, it supposedly makes it easy to access the auto-answer, so it might (...or might not) serve as a work-around for you
EDIT: I just found the toggle for auto-answer in the phone settings...and even though I have that registry entry blank like the rest of you, I still have the option of chosing auto-answer in the phone settings.
Sorry if you did this but can you go back to the setting and make sure it stayed "ticked". What happens on mine is that I tick the box and it shows a tick but if you come out of setup then go back in the tick has gone.

sirphunkee,
Any chance you could check that your Tick stays Ticked.

Hey man, sorry about that, I just missed it when you asked that the first time
I just now double-checked, and yes, the tick mark does persist in the Automatic Pickup box in phone settings, even through a soft-reset.
But...even when the tick mark is there, no value appears in the registry entry you mentioned and...it still doesn't work I tried it with the auto-answer interval set at 0, 1, and 2 seconds, and it never answered my test calls.
So...6.1 doesn't work any better, 6.5 is just more honest with you by not letting the setting appear like it's working
p.s. feel free to PM me if you ever need feedback from me and haven't heard anything in a day or two...probably means it just got lost in the shuffle on my end.

I've been using Jeyo Mobile Companion for a while now: http://www.jeyo.com/companion.asp
It's great, you can SMS from your PC with it, manage your contacts (SIM or memory), use it as a task-manager, device screenshots, etc... Very useful program, but, doesn't work with Vista/WM6. Emails to support go unanswered (for months now) and they don't respond to users in their forums.
Does anyone know of something similar that works with WM6/Vista...? Thanks!
JMC works with WM6/Vista.
There is a work-around to make it work though. You have to go into the menu that says 'Install cab file', and then it opens up the browse window. Once in that window, click the network icon on the bottom in the left hand frame. You will see a message at the bottom saying 'Starting Device Agent' and as long as you are connected to your device via Windows Mobile Center, you will see stuff like you used to.
Edit: I see you have already registered and posted on their forums about v2.0. Does this workaround not work for you? It works OK for me.
It worked for WM5/Vista, but doesn't work for WM6/Vista.

Dude, chill out. I was trying to help and not say that 'it works for me so screw you'. My point was that since it's working for me, perhaps you could look into your non-working config a bit more to see if you can fix it. That's all. You said it doesn't work with WM6 & Vista and I corrected you. That's all.
Sheesh. Can't even help anyone these days without being dumped on.
I think its better to try and contact the developers. If the Network workaround doesn't work, then I am not sure anything will.
Really, I was (am) happy for you. It's just one of a few Dash-frustrations I've encountered since upgrading to WM6. Not sure why mine won't work. At one point, I was able to get it working by manually copying the file over that JMC uses on the device, and then manually running it on the device. Jeyo support doesn't respond, and I think they've all but abandoned their spam-ridden forums. Have given up for now, hope they come out with an update, it's a great product.

As mentioned already, the Jeyo team is incredibly unresponsive. They are possibly the worst software development team that develops great software. It's almost like the engineers are also the CSRs who have no regard for customer service.
There forums are being spammed constantly by spambots advertising p0rn. It's ridiculous.

Windows vista ultimate vs wm5.
Network trick works!
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.

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.

I have an XDA IIs recently upgraded to WM6.
I set it up so that after a few mins the password prompt pops up. This stops it from being knocked in my bag etc.
But a few days later and it has decided to change the pass for some reason? And I have no idea what it has set it to.
Is there anyway I can bypass the password screen?
Thanks!
EDIT: If it makes any difference, I guess the battery must've been low, because before the problem happened it had to do a full boot rather than just coming out of standby.

This is a known flaw in WM6. The only solution is to delete the hive. Soft-reset, hold the 2 buttons next to the volume slider until a menu comes up and select yes for the delete hive option. You do not need to format storage, but your registry (hive) will not know about the installed programs so you might choose to format storage as well. If you do both it will just like when you first flashed the ROM and you will have to re-install everything. After doing this do NOT use the built-in password option WM6 gives you, this will happen everytime you remove your battery or it goes dead. There are other locking programs out there that wok instead.
I use S2U2 as do many others to keep the phone "locked" when not in use, it does not use a password, but requires you to slide your finger across the screen to "unlock" it.
Thanks!
That seems to have done the trick.
Bit strange that microsoft haven't bothered patching WM6 to fix this...?
Oh well its sorted now anyways, so thats a relief

It's not been patched by microsoft because it's really not a WM6 problem, it's a 'running a massisvely hack version of WM6 on an old, unsupported device' issue.
Remember, the angel was released some time ago when WM2003 was the latest. These devices were never even considered as an option to run wm6. The fact that Helmi was able to make it run at all is amazing, and really shows just how good he is (I'm assuming Helmi is a male, I've actually never seen anything stating if Helmi has boy or girl wibbly bits ).
yeah...
WM6 really is not made for our BA, there's a thread here regarding your problem.
no sense of saying search first. but im glad someone helped you.
WM6 on our BA? Helmi did miracles to make that happen.
P.S.
actually it's Helmi not Hemli (pardon the correction)
and now that you said that it made me curious too. hmm.... ahaha...

I have searched for the answer and have seen that you need to go to Settings>Personal>Phone>Time Zone and check a button that says to sync with tower (or something similar). I am using TAI's latest 6.5 and I can't find a Time Zone tab/button/anything. Anyone else have this problem with a 6.5 beta?
Thanks for any help.

Surprising this can be a little over looked..Install Advanced Config 3.3 use Device Update if you don't already have it.
In advanced config under the phone settings look for
'Show NITZ page' and set it to yes and save/restart
then you will have the Time Zone tab you are missing..
Thanks, I installed Advanced Config, but was thinking a setting within it to do the syncing with local time or something... NITZ, huh? I guess I didn't think of that.
I will give it a try when I get home (I left my phone at home accidently and I feel so naked!)

the Time Zone tab will actually b there..
thanks for a lot, have disable the automatically update, hopefully i will not get into the same problem again
Hey guys, I know this sounds like a stupid question but, when I send a txt message it always comes up with the message sent notification. Ive been through all the settings and I can not find a place to turn it off. Ive installed advanced tools and the setting there does not work either. I have a tp2 on verizon. If anyone could guide me to the right location to turn off the message sent notifications Id appreciate it. Thanks as always.
Download and install CeRegistryEditor to your Windows PC. Launch it and connect your phone via USB.
In CeRegEdit, go to Connection -> Connect. Then Tools -> Unlock. Observe your phone and accept to the on-screen notification.
Your registry is now unlocked for editing.
In CeRegEdit, browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings. You will see SMSNoSentMessage with a value of 0. Double-click and change the value to 1.
In CeRegEdit, go to Connection -> Exit.
Job done.
EDIT: FYI, the "Sent" message annoyed me to no end also, and this was the first of many tweaks I made to my Tilt 2.
Yeah I did that registry edit. It is already set to 1. That stupid message sent thing still pops up. Its driving me crazy. There has to be a way to shut it off. Thats the only problem I have with my tp2. I appreciate it the help. Any other suggestions?
Huh... mine is already at 1 also. Anything I might be missing?
