BBConnect

Hi all,

Has anyone managed to get this running on the new ROM? Tried v2.1.2.21 and v2.1.2.52, but netiher will sync. Both see network, bbriefly create a tunnel and then disconnect.

Anyone got a similair experience - or better still offer a tip?

Thanks in advance

These three are on the list (two already addressed for next release)

We need to keep an eye on the Connection Icons, only report if you have this problem, please include hardware and carrier.

Please explain the Keyboard Backlight Fix.

Added the Turn WiFi Off issue to the list.

Added WiFiInit on startup to fixes for next release. In the meantime, fin WifiInit.exe in the Windows Folder and make a shortcut to it in the Startup Folder.

Keyboard Backlight

Disabling the auto light sensing. This is a real bother where the light does not come up sometimes when you hit a key in the keyboard. I don't know if it is possible to disable it by default.

Unfortunately, I couldn't browse the directory structure though - it just shows it as blank. I did get a directory listing once but it then froze.

I also tried installing Card Export II but this just hung when I tried to browse the card.

I've noticed that the device locks while sending mail. That is, for a couple seconds during the process, scrolling is disabled and the buttons have no effect on the interface at all. Then, when it wakes back up, all input is executed, including scrolling and button presses. Any ideas?

This is with the default Vanilla ROM, I should mention - I am about to upgrade to XDA Live 0.1 now.

Definitely ADOBE.

ClearVue doesn't work with many pdf.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] flyboy009:
I'm trying out PocketXpdf which is an opensource reader, footprint is much smaller which would leave us more room for other items. But this could become a user preference item really, didn't know if that should have been there or not but I'm fine with installing on my storage card since its not a huge deal.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ac604:
No need to flame someone's hard work. If you don't like it, use the "vanilla" WM6 ROM or make your own ROM.

EDIT: BTW, if you are complaining about the XDA Live showing up on the Today screen, let me be the first to tell you, you are a moron. Took me about 5 seconds to open up the registry editor included in this ROM and find the words "XDA" and delete it from the Today key in the registry. If you are complaining about the loading Splash Screen page with XDA Live, well then, my original post above should suffice.

Hi, I see you're on at&t, UMTS is 3G (im gonna be so flamed if Im wrong, but Im like 99% sure) What Im wondering is if you had the "U" before adding any carrier .cab's to the base xda live? or if you even did add any. Maybe others can say if the did also.

Thing is earlier I looked at my \windows folder with resco pic viewer, and there is no "U" in there, there is an "E" and a "3G" and kinda surprised me an "Ev" for evdo set, also the 3G set didn't have the small "3G" for next to the signal bars like the "G" does.

I dunno if the U could be located elsewhere, but that's where WM5 had it, just curious as to how people are havin the U show, since it doesn't appear to be there on the base xda live rom, I would imagine it would show "3G".
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] indiekiduk:
Yup guess I'll need to make my own one then, the Wizard ROM is perfect that would be my target. Even the vanilla hermes rom has junk on the splash screen.

I'm not against people branding their own ROMs its pretty cool, but requiring us to reg edit every time we hard reset to get rid of some useless stuff is annoying. Also it appeared to me he didn't even ask what we'd like, I'd like MSN Live on there even if it is still beta, the Wizard WM6 ROM has it, and I'd like the version of Active Sync remote display from the newer Windows Mobile Developer Power toys.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mshagg:
Criticism of someone who devotes time and money to us for no specific reward?? Very ungrateful, poor form and an explanation to your "problem" has been provided 10 times already. Ive never editied a registry in my life and it took me all of 5 seconds.

To Kyphur:

Hardware: Imate jasjam

Carrier: Telstra Aust

ROM vers: 3.22.110.1 (suprise suprise lol)

Radio vers: 1.16.00.00

Only issues:

- SMS receiving has been "strange". Out of 4 sent to me that i know of following the Rom going in, one never arrived, one turned up at about mindight although it was sent many hours before. HOWEVER - this may be a network issue or similar. But thought i'd "throw it out there" in case others had similar issues. SMS sending works 100%.

- 3G icon instead of previous U icon. Well versed already. Frankly... dont understand the difference between the 3G/U icon... all i know is that it used to be a U and now it says 3G lol. With HSPDA back up and running, data access just as quick. The icon is merely cosmetic?

And not an issue with the ROM... but thought you may enjoy a laugh at my expense.... work PC's (where i sync my PDA 99.99% of the time) has Activesync 4.2 installed and It dont seem keen to update either. Woops!!

Hope can be of some assistance in the ongoing development. But for a 0.1 version number, VERY impressive. Might as well throw that 1 on the other side of the decimal place and call it a day lol.

Is there anyway to get rid of the roaming triangle icon at the top of the screen. I am on the Cingular/AT&T network and the only time it hasn't showed up is if I use one of the Cingular ROMs. With all the HTC ROM's and The XDA Live Rom I have the roaming icon.

Also, I still haven't figured out how to get the html formatted email messages working in pocket outlook. Any help would be appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
Your activesync issue is because you need to download activesync 4.5 from M$...

Your SMS issues are strange... are you using a NextG sim? or just a plain Telstra SIM??

With regards to your 3G icon im doing some testing for Vodafone and Telstra NextG icons for Australian Use.... ill keep you updated on the progress...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ChaoticDruid:
Thanks, and yeah the icon is purely cosmetic, you could go in and modify it to be any letter or symbol.

I do agree with you on the rom, there is a very good chance I won't ever change it out on mine, I haven't ran into any real usability issues except twice today I have ran out of memory, gotta find a better task manager or a free memory utility..I dunno.

Im on cingular/at&t also, I haven't ever had the roaming icon with htc roms, its also a part of the icons in the windows directory, you could make it not visible..but I haven't a clue why its showin.possibly sim related??

Anyhow to your html email question, who or what is your email provider? There are exchange 2k3 problems I guess, but gmail for me is working, along with most peoples pop accounts Im pretty sure.

Splats

Hi,

Upgraded on first day and think its great (well done, I am very grateful, goes like a rocket), had a few issues when first setting up but they seemed to go away.

Ongoing problems I do have are minor and they are sometimes when I do a soft reset using SPB mobile shell the phone gets to the first splash screen and stops. Have to do a soft re set with the pen and all is OK. The other is when I initiate or finish a call I hear a crackling splat through the earpiece or speaker. Had not noticed this on my old rom.

Imate JasJam

Current rom 3.22.110.1

Radio 1.20.31.10
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mshagg:
Hahaha, yeah i know i need AS4.5 and will install it at home, it's just that at work... the IT gurus like to test stuff for months before deploying it to 500 or so PC's. Prob should have checked AS vers before upgrading the ROM. Nothing beats learning the hard way though!!

Very strange, which is why i think may have just been a temp network issue. Got home and asked my housemate to send me an SMS and it came through without delay. FYI i run a NextG sim.

Looks like im behind on the times with the Radio ROM but will need to get a PC setup with AS4.5 before i tinker any further lol.

Cool - look forward to hearing your thoughts on the matter!

Thanks for the response - appreciate your time.

Hi guys!

I upgraded my TyTN last night, and must say that this release is just awsome!!

One question... I am jusing Pylon Anywhere to syncronize with my ASP.

When I try to install this the installation is just hanging in the end.

If I softreset my phone, it boot but it just hangs when the "desktop" shows up.

I had to hardreset my phone to be able to use it again. Anyone??

I have three issues so far with this rom though i must say it is great!!!

1) View HTML in Outlook doesnt work - I am on Exchange server 2003 though i dont think that is the problem as exchange just forwards the mail doesnt alter the content!

2) Wireless doesnot turn off from the bubble (been raised before i know!)

and more importantly!!!

3) XDA Hermes forum is squeezing too much in explorer - has anyone else discovered this???

Forgot to ask - has anyone got the Tmoblie home page address as i have managed to delete it!!

Thanks for everyones hard work!

Cannot assign taskmanager to softkey

I've installed XDA Live yesterday and it works great. There's just one thing that is bothering me. I used to have the task manager assigned to the left soft key, just below the display. This worked fine with the out of the box ROM (T-Mobile MDA Vario II, Dutch), but I can't find the task manager in the list of applications I can assign with the new ROM. Anyone else noticed this?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JPHCCFC:
I was suprised at that because the mail still contains the HTML to be displayed! When i spoke to my exchange server administrator as well he said that all the exchange server does is forward the format it received the email the rendering was done at a client level. Is this feature documented as an exchange server 2007 feature.

Guys

For all the people who prefer to use the old Pocket Msn like I do,

-Install the Pocket MSN

-Disable the Today item

-Reset your device

-Extract the attached zip file and copy the files to your Windows

-Reset the device then enable MSN on Today screen

Enjoy it

Why don't you sync your device to a server? www.mail2web.com offers free push and contact/calender/tasks syncing. Since my pc's motherboard is fried I haven't synced my device to my PC (been about 4 months now), just hard reset, add the server on my device and it reloads all my contacts.

Strange...

Cannot report a single issue with WM6 :) Everything works perfect.

I have installed 35 apps so far, all work. I had one single freeze yesterday.

But I got the impression it has to do with random lock-ups reading form the storage card. So I made sure, all silently running apps are in RAM: SpB Backup, some today items etc. And the mail attachement go in RAM as well. Will report on further freezes.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pinkopalino:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] cybertron:
yes it is. But your exchange administrator is not entirely correct, nor has he wrong,

The html mails are indeed forwarded *unchanged* but, as I have understood, with an added "code" which tells Outlook mobile that it should not use html mails. Not sure why ms have done it like this but they DO want us to buy Exhcange 2007.

If you wanna use html mails, just use imap (or pop3?)

Ok getting back to topic. Everything seems to be working fine but I just have a few issues..

1.) When my phone is connected to USB to charge it will constantly turn my screen back on for no reason. This is not good because it leaves my screen on all the time. Just to clarify this is when I press the power button to shut the screen off. So basicly I have to turn the phone completely off when I want to charge it. Never did this before with any ROM..

2.) Whenever I do anything with HTweakC 2.1 I have a 98% chance that when I reset the device will hang at the beginning HTC boot screen and it never makes it to the windows mobile start screen. I basiclly have to keep resetting it till it boots. This ONLY happens when I make a change in HTweakC and most of the time the changes don't stick anyway.

3.) I installed the wifi cab init fix and maybe I'm confused on what this does but ever since I installed it whenever I reboot my device wifi comes up as unavailable. So I assume this cab is to turn wifi on on boot up which is fine but when you go into the comm manager it shows it as off.

Direct Hex Editing of the .nb (or .nbh) file is very dangerous for Hermes. The issue is with the NAND Flash type. If we send a bad image to our phones we brick them even though we don't touch bootloader (Man I miss that about Wizard).

If there is someone here comfortable with hex editing the Coredll.dll to change the version number then we can replace the original coredll.dll in the Rom and in theory BB Connect would work. This might fix install issues with other programs also.

BTW, making a change like that would be one of the things that would allow me to release with my original base Rom (which seems more stable to me).

So, who's a master HexEditor????

I don't know what I've done for you to think that I don't want input. I'm trying to be as responsive as I can be.

For the time being, WLM, MSN, and Voice Dialers are all going to be "Install your choice". I will do my best to gather up the different options and make them available.

If you'd like to see CE Remote Display replaced with a newer version, fine suggest it, maybe even post the .cab file to save me the trouble of hunting it down. I'll look into it. I'm only one person I can't be everywhere.

As to the XDA Live text on the today screen, I'm amazed that nobody is offered alternatives. Geez, why not contribute a little to this Rom, make a Logo and put it out here for others to vote on!

I think we need to have a little fun on the side, get your Today Theme creations skills together and let's see some XDA Live Today Themes! Hey I'll even entertain a new Windows Splash Screen!
