Wallpaper bug

Anyone know how to set a wallpaper picture so that it doesn't tile in landscape mode. Never had issue in WM5.

Other than that no problems great ROM.

Helmi ROM

Where is the Helmi ROM posted, it is not on the above link?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] AlanJC:
I don't think the Helmi ROM was ever released by Helmi, only a closed test, although I think some people may have leaked it, this thread relates to the PDAVIET WM6 - 2.00.04 PRO.

I just took the plunge and upgraded

Was on an old aku 2 rom as i remember

Having only "played" about with it for 10 minutes (basically to get all my contacts etc back synced) I have to say the speed makes it like having a new device.

well worth it, even if you do loose video calling!

How can I remove the BT icon at the task bar? Want to save some real-estate...

Has anybody found a way to change the font size yet for sms and emails?

Thanks.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] frz:
Remove Icons from the Taskbar

To Remove Battery:

HKLM\services\power\?ShowIcon === change from 1 to 0 (zero).

To Remove Screen Rotation:

HKLM\services\screenrotate\?ShowIcon === change from 1 to 0 (zero)

To Remove the Wireless connection manager

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\?WirelessMgr\keep and change the DWORD Keep to 0, soft-reset

If you remove all three icons, taskbar will be removed and more space on today screen

Best ROM

Hi guys

I’ve downloaded and installed Crossbow (v2.00.04_PDAVIET_UNI_PRO). My impressions were strange, of course i was surprised with new style of os, but in GENERAL there was NOTHING different from previous rom (aku3.3). so i’ll try to review my impressions about half-day working with new rom. But here i’ll post only the problems were not discussed in the forum:

( + ) Wonderful design

( + ) Very fast

( + ) Almost of my favorite apps work (including spb p+, which was mentioned as crashing)

( – ) in my country, there are no 3g telephony, so i map to video call button some function (my favourite was spb pocket plus Alt+Tab which was very good solution to switch between apps with 100% windows appearance). But now this button is not available because there is no 3g telephony support. What a pity… =(

( – ) WM5torage 1.73 is included into the rom, but i can do nothing here! There are two devices: TrueFS (DOC M-Systems) and DSK1: (SD Memory Card). When i try to activate removable storage (press Activate), system alerts “can’t open the selected card/disk device”. I tried many times it after soft-reset, but it didn’t work. I use my pda as a removable storage very often and i am very upset that this function does not work properly.

( – ) Very unpleasant was for me the fact that camera is still making bad fotos, ie. after capture it changes picture to be white, blur and very ugly. Can anybody take back the old camera? (for example, in 1.13.64 where was no such terrible “autocorrection”)

( – ) Pocket Office does not support my new office 2007 documents (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx). In general, there changed nothing since winmob 2003 (except progress bar while opening)

( – ) During boot, im asked to enter pin code from my sim card, but if i do not enter it during 1 minute, lcd comes black (light turns off), and only soft reset can make my device alive again

( – ) left and right soft keys work after a little delay, it makes a feeling of slow system, but for example, start menu opens in a moment

( – ) in sms, left soft-key is now “delete” instead of “new”. Hmmm…

So there are very few pros and lots of cons here. I hope somebody can help me to solve some problems i described. If not, i will be to downgrade to some aku3.5 rom which is not very good solution after having installed crossbow. So,

best wishes,

L2tp.

Missing light and record (pressed and hold) hardware button reference

I miss 2 hardware button reference in this release. Anyone have the same problem? If so, is there a solution to create of enable them?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] stanip:
Thanks alot! :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] sruthika:
Its a pity that you people just blindly flash a rom without reading about its features on other websites where reviews are posted. Crossbow doesnt have video telephony yet. So even people who are developing crossbow will only be testing video telephony now.

L2tp, do you know what is that feature? If you dont know just dont mess with it and screw up your device. just to give you an idea of what it is...

WM5Storage will export the flash memory card inside the smartphone as usual USB Mass Storage device (ordinary "usb disk") - effectively turning smartphone into flash reader (albeit USB 1.0 only, and not very fast).

Have you read anywhere that crossbow will support Office 2007 documents? If the developers dont include it, then the people customising the ROM would not be able to do it too

This one is device specific. When I tried this ROM on my device, it never asked for any pin and so many of them who have tried it also havent reported anything like this. So that means it is something with your device and not the OS

Left and Right softkeys have always been a bit slow in Universal independent of the ROM version or type.

Well, having "Delete" as left softkey is not a big problem. if you dont like it, nobody can develoop a ROM just to change the left softkey for sms. What you can do is to apply a registry hack where you can change the left softkey caption to "New"

Hope this helps....

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] richardlai:
My experience so far...

+ Love the contact name speech recognizer (no training needed!)

+ A2DP finally working with my Jabra BT620s (although registry tweak still needed, but previous WM5 ROMs refused to work even with tweak applied)

+ Speedier than WM5 AKU 3.5 (Helmi's), but maybe because it is a clean install

+ Camera seems to produce better images, but I shall do more tests

+ Love the new timeline at the top in the agenda view in Calendar

- Button lock disabled after soft reset
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] richardlai:
I think cookiem meant the soft keys. In one of the WM5 AKU 3.5 ROMs they included a remapping program so that you could customize the two keys.

yep. I only see three references. Contact, Record and Camera. No Record 2 (press and hold) en Lightbutton.

Buttons

Hi, maybe this is handy?

1. install PHM Regedit (or any other registry editor)

2. go down to this location HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys

3. create a key "40C8"

4. Go to the key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C5

5. Select all values under that key and copy it

6. Paste it under the new key "40C8" you just created in step 3

7. rename it to suit a readable name like "Backlight"

8. Softreset using some app like psShutXP or pocket plus (and NOT using the hole)

8. now, you can configure this button as u do normally (for the rest of the buttons)

Cheers...

can you guide us on how to achieve that amount of memory? Wm6 by the moment is eating all the memory and device need many resets.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] daddy k:
dito!

how on earth did you manage that?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] beginner:
wm6 is really amazing in speed but no so much cleaning non used memory. I compared the steps followed in aku 3.2 and in wm6 installing some things and honestly the memory in wm6 decrease more fast. After several tests, using on both systems some applications (tt6, pinformant) the system need more resets for free memory on wm6. The applications from oxio or other cleanning non used appl or memory really provide small amount of memory.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] .dredd.:
In order to earn constant memory:

Check the windows startup... there could be sddaemon, poutlook, voicecmd... they are not necessarily need to start with windows... voicecmd can eat up to 2 megs ram.

Use itaskmgr if you have less ram... it will show which processes have not been shut down, and you can kill them manually.

Do not use so much today programs... they eat also a lot of ram

Try truetoolbar as task manager and program launcher, it consumes 40-70KB ram only.

Tweak the unused today items... I think sktools can do it easily.

I use this rom and during normal use my amount is 20-25 megs... sometimes I use oxios hibernate (put on a hardware button).

Good luck

Bluetooth Car Kit Problem

Can anyone help.

I have paired my nokia car kit up to my Universal, no problems, I get in the car and it connects to it ok. If someone calls me, no problem all through the car kit.

My problem is that if I press and hold the button on the car kit Voice Dialler used to kick in and I could call out, but now the button isn't working. If I have the device out of the cradle and press the button on the universal, then Voice commander works.

Anyone else having a problem with Wifi in this ROM? I doubt it's a problem in the ROM, but when I try to access my school's private wifi network (logging in through IE), I can never access any pages through it. The login details are correct, but the error I keep getting is 'the connection was lost'...although the icon is sayign it's still connected to the access point. Happens allover campus. It does work with other PDAs because my roomate has a Cingy 8125 and another friend has the Sprint PPC6700 and can connect fine.

Maybe it is ROM related...?

That's the only gripe I have as of now. Well, that and the fact that this is only a tri-band phone (HUGE pain in my ass).
