I am in love.

My Jabra 8010 plays with no dead air, up to 10 feet away..

(bonded my BT and Radio antennas with a peice of metal and solder) I tried it with 3.5 and got a little better.. It only cut out about once every min if it was 3 feet away. Now with this ROM, 10 fricken feet away, it cut out about every min!!!!!!!! Same radio ROM.. Must have a much better BT stack.

Also, MW was playing slow on songs on 3.5, now it is fine.

Fast, sweet, neat, sexy.

Good job MS, great job to the smarter people here.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] zwuncki:
just updated it to this rom and also i haven't tried anything out yet:

one thing is obvious: damn is this fast. WOW.

(i still remember the time the universal first came out to germany in sep 2005), what a difference. really: WOW! how fast!

Bootloader version 2.01?

Hi Midget/other veterans...

I notice Bootloader 2.01 in Midget's footer - where is it possible to get it from OR does it get upgraded on flashing the Crossbow ROM itself?

Also, does this ROM include the Radio 1.14.10 or should I upgrade the radio first and then go for flashing the crossbow?

thanks in advance for any response to the apparently noob questions!:confused:

regards, Mayank
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] geovass:
Νο, it does not include radio 1.14.10. Its just the ROM.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] agrofoyer:
Thanks for the quick response!! Any insight into the bootloader? Would upgrading to 1.01 be sufficient?

thanks.

Everything works great :-)

Except for Skype Beta, when installed on SD, rebooting device, causes it to hang at Pin Screen.

It did work on AKU 2.3/3.2/3.3

When it does run sometime, your device does not wakeup from standby anymore..
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
No, 2.01 came with my device (2 months old)

afaik 1.01 would work.

first impression

I upgraded yesterday evening and apart for a problem with gspocketmagic (at least I think it is gspocketmagic that freezes the device) it is nice and fast.

I also noticed that with nothing installed the available memory goes down to 19 megs quite quickly.

Can we start a list of programs working with this rom?

This morning I installed magic button and so far everything ok

thanks again for this brilliant rom....

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] daddy k:
well installed this, one problem, unrelated, last night my bloody reset button broke! i dont feel it click in anymore, now whenever i soft reset from any programme etc it wont reboot, have to take battey out! any ideas if this can be fixed??

running tomtom 5, one error but ok since.

i seem to have problems from a soft reset whilst plugged into laptop, ie activesync connecting, it hangs. reboot without it plugged in it works, then plug it in to activesync it works.

got a feeling resco today plug in causes it to freeze?

ill retry later, cant be arsed at mo as have to take battery out when it does now :(

everything else seems ok.

no wifi off from the bubble at top.

really like the improved internet explorer, the high res mode together with fit to screen is better! also it seems to load an awful lot quicker (loaded avforums main forum page in about 4 seconds on wifi, usually takes about 30-40 seconds)

erm the backlight running on ligh sensor only bugs me, whats the reg fix to disable the sensor?

ill give it a few days with this, may go back to a windows 5 for short term, see how stable this begins to become, the problems i migh be having may be made worse by my broken reset button? which im assuming is stuck in the depressed position

advise required

Hi Everyone, thanks for all the great work, and help that is given to memebers of this comunity. and i hope you all hav the most wonderful 2007.

I currently have bootloader version 1 and need to upgrade to version 2.1 for this rom to work,

my question is as follows, How exactly do i upgrade my bootloader to version 2.0 and can somene please post me a linkl and instructions to the files required to perform the upgrade,

secondly can you upgrade from 1.0 straight to 2.1 or do you need to upgrade to 1.1 first

thirdly, I flashed this rom without performing the bootloader upgrade , so am now currently stuck in the bootloader screen, should i flash an older rom, before trying to upgrade my bootloader or is it safe to simply upgrade my bootloader from were I am,

thanks in advance for your efforts

kind regards

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] dape16:
THANKS for a really fast ROM! Its the best so far I think.

I just have one question, about the memory. After the flashing and first reset I have about 26-27 MB RAM. And after installing Midgets extra hacks its only about 19-22 MB after soft reset. And thats without any extra apps at all

Any ideas how to increase RAM?

Guys, I am also stuck on the bootloader after attempting to upgrade to this ROM using bootloader 1.01

Any ideas of how I can get my phone back?

Maybe someone has a bootloader version 2.x so that we can upgrade the bootloader first and re-burn the WM6 rom?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] sub69:
Well, if you take the battery out and hold down both softkeys while you put the battery back in and turn it on, you'll find out if the reset button is stuck, 'cause it'll ask you if you want to hard reset the phone. Generally it shouldn't cause any real problems if the button is stuck though.

That happened to my wife's Magician after she dropped it in a sink full of water (!) It worked without any real problems, but the problem with the Magician is that a hard reset is automatically performed by holding reset and pressing the power button, so everytime she pressed the power button, the phone was wiped. In the end I just opened it up and pulled the reset button off the circuitboard. She has to use software to reset the thing now... (But it has gained it's own unique character, and it survived it's "wash" otherwise intact - it's still going strong about 12 months later)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
YOU DO NOT NEED HIGHER THAN BOOTLOADER 1.01, I ONLY HAVE 2.01 BECAUSE I HAVE A NEW UNIVERSAL.

if you are stuck in bootloader (i did say this in first post) then run command "set 14 0" from mtty (look in wiki for info)

activesync 4.5 (beta) is needed for WM6

i Have bootloader 1.01 and the rom working without problems...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] netaxiz:
i managed to sort my problems out

if you are stuck in the bootloader that is because you are using bootloader version 1.0 you need to upgrade to 1.1

you do not need to flash again

all i did is whilst my devise was still stuck in bootloader mode is i ran on my pc the 1.1 upgrade executable that you can find in the bootloader upgrades folder on the ftp site.

onse the new bootloader is succesfully installed, and you soft reset, your universal will boot up proparly into the new rom

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] racingclub:
just flashed this on - and with my limited playing (and knowledge) here's the bugs that I've seen:

No WiFi Off when using the top 'bar' to control WiFi. (I usually tap the 'G' then WiFi On / WiFi Off. On is OK, but it always stays at WiFi On). I hate using that CommMgr thing......

Camera doesn't lauch from the Camera button, although the app works OK from the Program group?

Also, not a bug, but interested in the 'Internet Calling' functionality. I assume this is a SIP client? but I can't seem to access/find any config for it.....

Is 'Voice Command' normally included in Crossbow....?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Falk:
I have read that "Crossbow" would (finally!) support the SIP protocol natively and since that would be the one main reason for me to switch my question is: Can I already use my VoIP provider without the need for any 3rd party apps?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] dool2002:
can anyone help me which file should i use (ROMUpgradeUt) or the one in the (country_ID_error) folder

Try the normal one first, if you get the Country Code error, copy the files from the folder over the normal once and use this updater.

It will also run into this error. When this appears simply exit the app and start it again. Thats is, welcome to Crossbow

Be careful with activesync 4.5 beta 2 and win2k Sp4

Installed activesync 4.5 beta and it corrupted the tcp/ip stack on my nic - had to reboot into safemode, uninstall tcp/ip, reboot, then re-install tcp/ip.

Guy's be wary of this - if it's your work PC then wait till you get home to resync your contacts after updating to this ROM.

Remember AS4.5 is still a beta

Er...I beg to differ. I've had it working via WiFi on WM5 and WM6.

I was chatting to my sister just last night, using Midget's ROM, and my SIM card was in my Tornado at the time, so I was definitely using WiFi on my Universal!

Actually, I hadn't put my SIM card in my Universal at all since flashing to Midget's ROM, so all the setting up of Windows Live was done via WiFi too - perhaps that made a difference? (Though I can't think why it would).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] AlanJC:
If GPRS is present, it will use that because it is more secure, and connectivity is more stable.

If no GPRS is present, then it will fall back to WiFi.

If you create a blank ISP in your connection settings, and select this, it will not have a connection to make, and will use WiFi.

It just means you have to switch between the two yourself if you definately need to use WiFi.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] frz:
how do i do that

when u crest a blank isp, it still goes back to the default ei-fi

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
from the wiki:

First download the mtty utility

1. Take out the SD and SIM cards

2. Opened ActiveSync and go to file, connection setting and Un-check "Allow USB Connections". Then press Ok and close ActiveSync

3. Put in bootloader mode (Power + Light + reset) which brings up the "un-backlit" screen with "Serial" at the top and v0.XX at the bottom

4. Plug in USB cable DIRECTLY from PC to Jasjar (MAKE SURE NOT TO USE A USB HUB)

5. Open mtty utility / software

6. Select USB from the "Port" drop-down on the upper left corner of the dialog box and hit OK

7. Then another screen will come up. Hit enter and that will show "USB>"

8. Type "set 14 0" and hit enter

9. Disconnect Device and soft reset

10. Re-enable USB connections in activesync
