A Quick Question About The Beta Of Microsoft Live Messenger In The Zip File At The Begining Of This Thread. Which Beta Is It? Is It The One That Requires You To Sync Your Messenger Contacts With Your Address Book, Or Is It The Talked About One Which Doesn't Require That.

Cheers

How is that you have U(MTS) and E(DGE) instead of 3G and G(PRS) like I have with this XDA Live for icons? :eek:

I find the issues I have had with this rom are very minor compared to the advantages it offers..

1) except I can no longer use sling player mobile..Man I didn't realize how much I would miss slingplayer..

- As somone has already pointed out it is a audio decoder issue or something similar according to my log file

2) i was hoping this would fix bluetooth and MS voice command issues..Oh well, I did install the Widcomm stack and it works very well and also allows MS VC to work.

3) Sometimes my device will not wake up and I have to soft reset. Probably some third party app. I hard reset and without any apps installed or other reg fixes and it still had the issue; so maybe it is something with porblem 4

4) since upgrading to WM6, Files show as missing on Sdcard once in a while. Others had this issue with WM5 aku3.x So I guess its not new (i tried the reg fix, doesn't seem to matter)

So all in all its not that bad...Can't wait for the Non-beta or RTM version to be leaked...Great job to Kuyphur and really to whoever leaked this version.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] eagle 1:
It is SPB mobile Shell..

It looks really good, some people have trouble with it and others have no problems at all in WM6..

Well, that thread refers to problems experienced while using the device as a modem.

My problem is with the actual syncing of contacts & calendar etc.

Has anyone else tried this ROM with a Mac?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] apokryphus:
I didn´t found a solution for this. I think we should wait for an update!

Not in your answerer scope (but you might wait forever for someone to chime in that they have NOT been able to write with SuperCID) but I can tell you that SuperCID enables write capabilities to the ExtROM on my TyTN which is running WM6.

Great work!! Thanks to all of you!

Maybe a little app we could add : GPRS monitor.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mixmasterollie:
I think it's been metioned before earlier in this thread, but I'm also experiancing very slow video play back, very choppy as well. Have just tried WMP as TCPMP doesn't play WMV files.

Not sure what to start tinkering with to fix this though? Doubt it would be a registry setting? Oh, and it was fine before in the 1.35 South African ROM.

I noticed that internet calling was still trying to be fixed, but when I applied all the fixes in the zip except for the live desktop update internet calling shows up in the today screen. Was that supposed to happen.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
after using this rom for a day, honestly there isn't much difference between this version and the vanilla verson, the main difference is the ms office icons are restored; i personally found the huge XDA LIVE very irritating(i've removed it since) and that the vjlitmus thingy should be removed as i couldn't find a way to deactivate it once it's turned on and prolong periods of turning your flash on will kill the bulb inside...

other then that, there are additions that are nice, sms backup being 1 of them... but anything else i can install by myself...

but still, i'm very sure that people have gone thru hours to get this thing up and running... surely it's not as easy as just installing a few stuff then zipping it up... the stages involved - requirements gathering, requirements analysis, software development, software integration, testing and finally user acceptance tests...

i feel that while people have the right to say that they don't appreciate your efforts becos they only see the surface level of things, they do not know what the developer has went through to give them this little bit...

still, please do show alittle bit of respect and do not post negative stuff about this rom, while whatever that has been done might be little towards you, it's not as easy as it seems...

the worst that can happen would be for the mods to give up on cooking this rom as they feel that they are not appreciated!!! do bear in mind that this is a little step towards a great journey... everything presented has been positive and not negative... unless it's a step in the wrong direction, we should alert... else please be positive about it and hope that with every new release, it'll come nearer to perfection!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
forgot to add... what i appreciate most is that somebody has went thru all the effort to add build-in applications that i would have had to spend time installing myself... if you have like 50+ applications to install with every new rom release you'll understand the difference between installing 40 and installing 50 apps.

i wouldn't say that this is a great release but i see this as a good release on the way to becoming great...

please do show some respect and grattitude... even if you prefer the vanilla rom, go ahead and use the vanilla rom... but do NOT post negative stuff about things that people are giving you for FREE...

give you free already you still complain... what else do you want?

for us to pay you to use free stuff?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dutty:
i got exactly the same opinion about it.

i never said i don't appreciate his "effort", besides that, how much of an effort is it to edit the registry hive, which is an ascii file, and add the xda-live string.. thats not really an effort.. i respect his work in general and think its good if people do stuff like that for free in their own time

i doubt that somebody would give up his work as soon as somebody comes up with a little criticism (especially about a one string registry hack).. if that happens he intended to stop working on it much earlier...

jeez... it's called criticism.. and it was about a string and a png file.. come on guys... i already said that i respect his work and his devoted time, i guess everybody feels that who downloads one of the wm6 roms..

i used to develop free software and i never saw something bad in criticism you should be man enough to deal with it if you are able to use javascripts to build a rom

Hey people, just to confirm the video call cabs that were posted work fine on my TyTN. Hopefully there will be a skin for the dialer thats ties with the standard theme on XDA Live?!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kyphur:
Just to point out a couple of things:

"XDA Live" was not the only registry edit made to the Hive file.

It is easily reversed if it bugs you that much, PHM RegEdit has a Search Feature, find it.

When I decided to put it there, I knew that it would not interfer with your today plug-Ins, if they go down far enough it simply disappears automagically. If I had used a more subtle background image it wouldn't do the same.

The OS determines the size of the text when using that method.

A lot more effort went into this than many seem to realize. To be honest I miss having the same Rom on my phone for more that 4 hours. I've learned this process without harrassing everyone who has ever done it before. I read threads and privately asked a few respected members simple questions (then waited patiently for their response filling that time with my continued search for the answer anyway - sometime they answered before I found the solution, sometimes not).

Did I miss someone complaining about "XDA Live" at the top of the Windows Splash Screen?

Honestly, if you don't like my work then use something else, I'm not offended.

Now can we get back to issues at hand, I would love to release v0.20 by Monday but it needs to be ready for final testing By bedtime Friday (and I will need some testers).

Google maps connectivity problems with XDALive

Google maps occassionally complains about not having a data connection even while using wifi on my home network, never used to do this before. Clicking OK, stops any search. Can anyone else confirm this (happenes in Google maps 1.00 and 1.01)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
I have Google maps installed also. I have had the same thing happen several times. I'm using it via wifi. I get the following error:

This program requires a data connection, and will retry automatically. In the mean time, please check your signal strength.

(Error: wininetReadError[6])

If I just retry to"find location..." a couple more times, that seems to do the trick.

I searched on Google for that error and someone else posted that they had the same issue on their Qtek 9100 running WM6. So, it appears it's an issue with the OS itself. Unfortunately, I'm not sure of a solution.

What kind of connection are you using? Also what radio are you using? I've got radio 1.35.

Just a quick thought, I'm sure it won't cut down on all the posts here but is it worth a shot to create a wiki page where people can list bugs, feature requests and solutions - I guess it would require people to read the wiki before the thread but maybe it would be helpful to have a place to go for people to quickly check if somebody else has already listed their issue instead of 90 people stating the same thing? If you think it's a good idea, I'd be happy to help set it up - don't want to step on toes though - maybe this is a better venue for such things - it's just one of my momentary thoughts.

Hi, In refrence to the questions about internet calling, I can't say for sure, as I haven't and wont not install the viop fix.

But I imagine you'll have to set up a sip number acct from like here

http://www.sipnumber.com/

Gizmo voip and others use the same method.

It shouldn't matter by carrier, though Im not sure abour access point useage, but as long as you have a data connection it will work (providing it actually works in the os)

I could be completely wrong too.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Globalrebel:
just reposting becuase of all the bullSH*T threads.

Problem : When in E-mail and sending a message through exchange, it locks up for about 4 seconds and then continues on. Not a big problem, but does get irritable at times.

Problem : Sometimes bottom buttons (call, end call, ok, windows, and other 2) seem to stop working until i go into Settings->personal->buttons. Then close out and buttons work again.

Problem : Load up time for Outlook e-mail IS PRETTY LONG compared to my 8125. I press the top E-mail button on phone and after 3 seconds e-mail appears. On 8125, takes about 1.5-2 seconds. (once again, not big deal just wondering if it can be fixed.)

Problem : Memory leak issue still apparent. I have following programs installed

WisBar Advanced 2

"" desktop

Iguidance

Bandswitch

HTweakC

Memmaid

Still goes from 24 mb after soft reaset to around 17 mb after about 6 hours.

Problem : When playing Mp4 files through WMP over bluetooth, for some odd reason, it goes straight to built in speaker. ONLY WITH MP4 files? Any help?

Fixes

Problem Fixed : AD2P Has fixed its skipping with Sleuths hack and the registry value editing found in these thread around pages 25 - 33!! (still skips SLIGHTLY every 40 second or so. VERY SLIGHTLY!!)

Problem Fixed : Re-appearing "Help windows get better" notification. FIX is to not soft reset, but actually power off by holding down power button and clicking YES.

Will add more later. Off to work

Can we stop this

Please please please compile a complete but streamlined XDALive update. Even the flashlight tool was too much. Create a suplimental cab with your bells and whistles (ie XDALive plus) We can download what we want and install it. If you have the skill/balls to flash your firmware then you certainly have the skill to download and install an app. We need stability and device issues worked out eg: PTT, HSDPA, WIFInit, etc...(which have been worked out) Let the gods concentrate on getting what microsoft and (partially) HTC intend to be included in a real WM6 release. (voice dial, ICS, windows live, HTML w/ exchange 2003 sp2 hack, etc...)

Lastly, XDALive didnt change my ext_rom but why didnt my 8525, upon flashing, run any of the cabs noted in the config.txt file. I have security programs that need to run if a thief/person tries to hard reset my phone. Thanks

I think I'd report just "success" reports in either the other XDA Live thread or perhaps start a new one. This one was supposed to be just for posting issues (as the title would suggest).

It's already strayed from that quite a bit, unfortunately.

I think we need some mod cleanup. :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ibanyard:
Uhuh, and also people, please be aware not all software may be compatible with WM6, we're not interested in those issues at present.

Right now, we should be concentrating on testing and fixing functions and applications that are in this core base build. Once thats done, lets widen out to 3rd party apps.

First, I'd like to give my thanks to the authors and developers of this -- I really do appreciate it.

Everything seems to be working nicely - aside from a few quirks with wi-fi, as discussed previously.

I'm also getting something strange on my 8525 with Cingular, which might be carrier specific....

Whenever I stream media - Orb, for example - it will stream nicely for a short while - then I'll lose my "3G" icon and get a large "U" and also a small "E" next to the reception bars. I'll also lose the stream. Thus, I'm confused - perhaps it dropped to UMTS from HSDPA -- but the small E would suggest EDGE, and I have confirmed that I do in fact get EDGE speeds with the "U" there. A bug perhaps?

As an aside, when moving in a car, streaming media seems to be problematic in general. It seems to lose the connection during, what I would assume, is a hand-off. Is this a problem inherent to HSDPA, coverage issues, or something else? Do people see this on EVDO with, say, Sprint's 6700?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sambartle:
Were you using something bluetooth that uses a serial port? They always caused problems with both the AKU2 and 3 versions of the internet-usb aplications, if you picked the wrong port by accident (COM8 was always problematic for example)

If so using another port may save you having to turn it off fully as it works ok for me with BT on on my M3100 (Orange UK then upgraded to the WMXL f/w)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sambartle:
The XDA Live is fine (and hardly a major issue even if you do want to remove it.. it took me about 30 seconds.) - but lets not get into that too much..

as for the light... to turn it off just hit the icon again and its a toggle so it turns it off if its on, and on if its off.

Its an LED and so it has a massivly long life.. it will outlast the phone even if you leave it on 24/7 forever ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sambartle:
This is gonna sound silly.. but do you mean you cant actually access the contacts application at all or that the list is missing in it?

If you mean the list is missing in it after flashing this happens as the phone is wiped during the flash so you have to restore a backup of the contacts (or resync the phone) to get them back. (apologies if this isnt the issue - but just in case this is your first flash i thought it was worth mentioning)
