Found Out the Answer to My problem

Custel & SkyyBoy,

I found out the answer to my issue. After two days with customer support (I didn't say anything about the customization) I had to go back to the Cingular store, because the data rep, thought that it might be a sim card issue, and he wanted to rule out that there wasn't a hardware issue.

Before going to the store, I downgraded to the stock OS, and off I went. They gave me a new sim card, and I was still getting the same error msg, when trying to get on the internet. I then asked the young lady, if she could take the sim out of the stores working 8525. She complied, and when she booted up and tried PIE, it came up with no problems. So, that ruled out hardware being a problem.

She then got her boss, and they deleted the data plan off my account, and re-entered it. Still didn't work. She put me back on the phone with customer support, and after 2 hours on the phone, I got someone who really knew what she was doing. Apparently, my account wasn't setup right. Basically, I wasn't being authenticated on their server. ( That wasn't how she explained it, but she told me that was pretty much the gist of it) So, she had to contact another department, and after a half hour of listening to crappy music, her sweet tender voice came on, and she said power the device up, and try again. As, soon as I tried to go to a website, I could here the feedback from the cell signal, on the lan line, and knew that it was going to work, and sure enough BAMMMMMMM, my phone works, my phone works.:D

So, again thanks Custel for the support, and Skyy, although you assumed I had no idea on what I was doing regarding talking to customer support, I understood why. Because, again I automatically assumed we where all techies, and knew the rules, so I learned something new, and I hope that you in turn, learned something as well, not all no0bs are new to the game. Just new to the site.

Cingular Video & PTT Enabled on this ROM?

Hi Custel - looks like I'm going to give your ROM a try out very soon, but I have (2) quick questions (and I did real every post in this thread.)

Does Cingular video actually open w/out having to save, overrwrite, and open the downloaded *.ram file?

Does the PTT button actually engage the PTT feature that was originally working on the new ROM?

If no on any these either of these, is it something you're planning on doing, or should I just give up on my wish-list? ;)

CUSTEL WM VI Professional v1.3 Standard / wrong file

Wrong files, corrupted ? (http://www.mediafire.com/?2roxxnyzxgy)

The file seems not not to be correctly compressed. It is impossible to extract the file “RUU_signed.nbh”. The file is incomplete.

Where can I download the correct file to be able to test it. (I begin on the ROM-updates and their personalizations.)

Thank you very much with all the developers for their excellent work!

Please excuse me for my bad English. (I speak French)

The drastic drop in RAM was a little too much for me. So I tracked down the default memory cab and restored it as I didn't see too much difference in performance. Was wondering why these cabs weren't in this thread.

Strange thing is today its working. No changes since last night except for a reboot of the phone and a charging of the headset (which shuts it off too). All is well in my world. All of the Iphone slider stuff works well and Inclose (had problems on other ROM's) works like a champ too! I am a happy man! Great work!

Yes you have learnt to flash your 8525 but you haven't learnt even the most basic of settings.

Get your priorities right. Lean to use your device first then start using cooked beta roms.

Quick question for anybody, I'm having an issue with the date and time on my phone. It's not right. It doesn't seem to be picking up the date and time from the cingular server. Any ideas?

Custel this was an issue for me when I first installed 1.3. (That was before the whole Cingular account fiasco)

The only thing that changes is the time zone, but not the date or time. Presently, it says 01 March 2007, and it's 1230
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
Thank You sir, much appreciated :)

Thank you sir :) and I set mine manually so idk...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gyrene2083:
Setting it manually? Isn't there anyway of syncing the time?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
Add time sync Tab to Phone Settings

To add a time sync tab to your Phone Settings (Start > Settings > Phone > Time Zones), set the following:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\ShowTimeZonesPage = 1 (DWORD decimal)

And to remove again:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\ShowTimeZonesPage = 0 (DWORD decimal)

for wm5 should work on wm6

Can't get working ROMs

Tried downloading the Custel (standard and cingular both) and successfully got both files and when I attemted to unpack them I got:

1 CUSTEL_Standard_v1[1].3.rar: Unknown method in CUSTEL_Standard_v1.3\RUUWrapper.exe

2 CUSTEL_Standard_v1[1].3.rar: File "CUSTEL_Standard_v1.3\RUU_signed.nbh" header broken

4 CUSTEL_Standard_v1[1].3.rar: File "CUSTEL_Standard_v1.3" header broken

Same for Cing - but says Cingular instead of standard . . . you know what I mean. Is it possible to either get these as .zip files or as .exe, like the Pro Black ROMs?

Please!!!

Hey guys FYI:

The version of Sip Config Tool that custel has in his first post is now outdated. The current version (2.0.1) has a bug fix.

It can be found here:

Thanks for the plug CUSTEL
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RandomKillah:
Custel, I installed the new voip cabs as well as the new sip config tool. I opened the config tool and initially it was blank but upon selecting to import settings from device they were then active. I hit save just in case. The cabs seemed to have fixed my problem of only being able to call over wifi (now I can call over 3g as well however the "searching" problem still exists. While calls can be made, itg never stops searching. Are you seeing this as well?

FYI I am running 1.3 as well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
may have to do with registry settings then I will look through the registry tomorrow. I have yet to have a chance to try it on my phone, I just pulled the files created the cab and attached it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RandomKillah:
Ahh gotcha. Also just a note, since the new SIP config tool, has the enable VoIP over 3g, it have a feeling it may have been this tool that enabled it not the new cab. Anyhow just a note. Keep up the great work!

Incorporate customized anti-theft into your ROM ?

Hi Custel,

First of all, thanks for your great ROM, its FAST.

I've been reading the wiki but couldn't progress further due to my limited knowledge for cooking wm6. Basically I like to customize the ROM with anti-theft app and it needed to survive hardreset.

1) IIWPO - customised with owner name and sms list, upon changes of the owner name setting, it will notify the pre-defined sms list via sms. I've complied the personized cab for this.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=219592&highlight=IIWPO

2) a paid software - to detect IMSI of the SIM card upon startup, it comprise one .exe and config.ini in windows dir and a .lnk at windows\startup (i've made a cab for this too)

The ideal way for 2 mentioned above to survive hard-reset is:

1) Install Custel ROM

2) execute the paid software app, get the config.ini stored the IMSI, sms list etc

3) incorporate (step 2) into Custel ROM, re-flash the device

4) or edit the relevant config.txt in extrom, get the personized IIWPO.cab installed during flashing

however step 4 seems like not working, the IIWPO is not signed or cooked WM6 rom configured to ignore extrom ? And I have limited knowledge/tool to add the IIWPO cab and (detect IMSI app) into your ROm.

p/s: tested the customised IIWPO on WM6, it works.

Could you kindly advise. thanks. (or pm me for a student guide for cooking ?)

CUSTEL,

just thought i would express my opinion i see your ROM is closely themed to jasjamming BLACK themed ROMS i think maybe you should change your THEME as it is not fair on JJ!

You should be a little more original, remember it was JJ that allowed you to use his BLACK 2.0 rom as the cingular base you modified when you first posted a ROM so a little repsect is always due.

Pay your respect to seniors in this forum if they have helped you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
If you don't like the theme, then change it on your device to what ever you want. Keep in mind most of the ROMs here looks the same. Truthfully, I don't see an issue with theme because it is different and when I get tired of Black, Grey, Green, etc..., I will change to something else. This is my opinion.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rblover69:
to the guy that said be original etc about jas jam. Cmon man this is not a thread for that . Start your own seriously. If you cant stand something GET OUT OF THE ROM KITCHEN!!! or just start your own thread instead of polluting this one with your nonesense that no one cares about.

and custel question i realize that your 1/3 has html capabilites thorugh exchange servers. However for some reason in my settings only plain test is allow meanwhile my co workers allows html email. Currently im using 2 servers one through live and one through exchange through active sync wirelessly. Any idea to as why my html through activesync wireless doesnt allow html?

asian4ce,

Not for nothing, as I am all for giving opinions, but the connotation of your text is almost an attack on CUSTEL. As lpsi2000 stated, if you don't like the theme, then change it. But to come out and talk about showing respect, how about you showing some respect to CUSTEL for doing what he does.

For me this forum is a place where techies, and non-techies can get together and exchange ideas, give feedback, help to make a better customization of ROMS. Personally, I appreciate the work that all the "Cookers" CUSTEL, JJ, lvsw, Mr. Vanax, Dutty, and so many others for their time. Keyword being time. None of these individuals get paid for their hard work or efforts.

I have seen CUSTEL post comments on JJ's forum, and vice versa. So, if JJ isn't complaining, then who are we to judge. Again this is a community that is supposed to help one another. From the most experienced techie, down to non-techie.

So in closing, as your opinion is important, and appreciated, and I'm sure JJ would be happy to know that he has your support and respect. I am also, sure that he would be unhappy with the comments you made here towards CUSTEL.

does this mean this is the cause of my lack of html email.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
By searching around you will see that to get html mail through activesync/outlook your server must be exchange 2007. This issue HAS been addressed many times. Mail2web hasnt stated when they will be updating to 2007 or even if they actually will be yet.

mail2web's business service is actually really good (free one sucked) and i use them for our business hosting. After having tlaks with many techs at mail2web they will not launch 2007 servers until they compelte their own through tesitng and MS finalizes RPC over HTTP. So in the mean time , being impatient i purchased my a personal exchange2007 box from itsolutionsnow. Not a bad deal either $10 a month unlimited sotrage, actually best package ive seen from a provider. If after a few months of usage i notice good speed, no down time, and mail2web hasnt updated to exchange2007 i may take the company over to them. wm6 and exchange07 features are amazing, better then when i had BB on a BES server. Serverside searching and html email are great. You can also set your out of office status and auto reply from your phone, pretty cool. Just my 2 cents :)

yea i can agree with mail2web. I have had nothing but a great expirence to them. I have one of the early direct push accounts when they first starting allowing it and had nothing but sucess. Now ihave live on my phone also with its direct push and noticed that it had full html and that custels 1.3 supports html through servers. But alas it only supports 2007 exchange. Even though i get both emails similtaneously i send majority of my html needed email to my live account now and the reg email goes direct push to my 3 email accounts that are gettting aggregated through mail2web servers. Live html email is excellent but i wish it downloaded attachments upon recieveing and just was a little more less resoursfull system wise like exchange is. Other then that runnign both of them is a excellent. THis rom is def faster since i was using custel pro black 2.0 previously. Very nice mixture of things.

I think the only thing NO one here has conqured yet is PTT. THe mapping must be hard. Other then that great work custel.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] audiofx81:
hehe i was going to do that with my live account but im impatient and couldnt help myself ;). So i just mirror my biz exchange to the 07 server for now. server side searching is a gift from the gods as well

Installed 1.3 since the first day posted. But for several times the phone freeze during sleep mode (no running program), even the power button could not bring it back while the signal led were still blinking (had to soft reset). Does anyone experience the same problem?

I noticed LWSL's newest ROM version stated that it "fixed memory leak bug", I suppose memory leak will lead to the system halt. I wonder if there might be memory leak in this ROM. Custel, could you look into this, thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ljcaz:
I have had 1.3 on my phone Hermes 200 HTC for several days and I have had no freezes. It is very stable for me. Maybe one of your apps is causing the freeze. Also look to see that you don't have the phone settings under power/battey turning off the phone before the time on the screen turning off- I know this will casue it to lock up on occassion.

Another note thanking you for a great ROM. I haven't seen it mentioned in a previous post but with this ROM, it is the first time I have skip-free, bluetooth audio to my Plantronics 590a headphones. Donation sent your way.

Great ROM -- keep it coming!

@CUSTEL

Thanks for this great rom.

Just a few issues to report back -- don't know if you prefer here or PM, lmk so next time i do it right!

1. I too am experiencing the random bluetooth disconnect. Happens randomly typically after several minutes on the phone. One a side note, i've noticed this behavior with my Plantronics headset, BUT not on my Toyota/Denso bluetooth kit built into my car.

2. I've noticed, don't think anyone mentioned this here, but sometimes, the camera settings preferences go away.

3. Also, when starting a text, there's a delay between when the window opens and when I can start typing. If i start typing right away, i lose letters. I think 1.2 did this too, but not as big of a lag. I'm pretty sure WM5 didn't.

4. One time (and one time only) my HW kybd froze, completely non responsive. I had to soft reset to get it working again. I tried opening and closing, but it didn't help. Only happened the one time, have not been able to replicate (which i'm kinda thankful for).

These are minor things on an otherwise FINE rom from a GREAT chef.

Thanks again for doing this. I've passed this on to a few of my colleagues and they love it!

Bluetooth disconnect

Not sure of course, but this could possibly be your device. I had this problem when I first got my device (with standard Cingular ROM - using Motorala H700). I even had trouble getting bluetooth to start and stop consistently. I ended up getting device replaced by Cingular. Have not had any issue since.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] harrismarka:
Great ROM!!

Thanks for the great ROM CUSTEL!!

I have used Cingular versions for both upgrades. Flashed to 1.2 last week without any problems other than memory leaks. Upgraded to 1.3 today. It is working great (with more memory CAB). Much faster than 1.2!!

Already donated. Your hard work on this is MUCH appreciated. :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] armedmetallica:
Confirmed SD card memory issue here as well.

I have some apps loaded on there -- perhaps that could do it? Maybe the are "pre-loaded" when the card is inserted?

Also, perhaps its type of card -- if not everyone is experiencing this issue?

Mine is a Sandisk 2GB.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larrygu:
Did some experiment, found out that the main reason cause system lock up is application try to run during sleep mode, such as scheduled email send/receive, bluetooth initiate voice command.

I don't know about BT, but definitely scheduled email pick works fine with 8525 original ROM.

My RAM with SD inserted is 19M left, eject SD immediately changed to 27M left.

Hi Custel - looks like I'm going to give your ROM a try out very soon, but I have (2) quick questions (and I did real every post in this thread.)

I saw this post #82 and it didn't get a response. I would like to know if this is something we will see in the future. I know that Cingular Video blows but it would be nice to have since we are paying for it. I love the ROM otherwise.
