sorry for duplication... i have got everything working i need on this ROM now.. very pleased with it so far.. it def is faster.

still cant get MMS working.... if anyone knows what you need then please advise.. cheers

James, i assume you've been to the t-mobile web site and used all the mms settings on there?

I'm on the 2.5 rom and my mms is fine.

MMS

Hi, that's what I was trying to do, I got the t-mobile cab from the Extended rom but when I install it nothing happens, as in, I don't get any options to enter mms settings in messaging.. I have even tried installing the whole extended rom without sucsess.

When using tomtom i've noticed that after a couple of minutes the screen goes white. I have to tap the screen to bring it back.

I've also noticed that when left on the desk the screen goes blank after a couple of minutes even though it is set to stay on.

(ROM 2.5)

Ok, maybe fixed this. I had set a "power saving" option within NeoTab. Even though I wasn't runnning NeoTab I guess it had set a value in the registry. Ran NeoTab, unselected the power saving option and rebooted. All seems ok, for now.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] youser:
Yeah, absolutely (there are just too many pages in this thread).

Sync problem

I tried the 4.2 Rom from vlodeck. And there are a few issues I found out. First of all I'm using Vista and I wasn't able to sync anything neither per exchange nor per local Computer. I used the alternate flash method. After upgrading my text messages were still there so maybe the upgrade was not complete but I'm not so deep into that.

Another thing is that wasn't able to sign in Windows Live services although I was connected via GPRS.

Except that I love the rom but the sync problem is the showstopper for me.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] nocturne.op.15:
tobiaslutz: if your messages were still there, flash was not performed. you still have previous version

i'm running only on vista and its native wmdc - no problems. time after time, i'm using xp with async 4.5 - also no problems...

btw, wmdc has one issue - but it is not a problem of rom (in fact, maybe it's not problem of wmdc itself): if you are running outlook 2007, you will not be able to sync until you have not set up email account. don't understand what were developers thinking about...

about that windows live - could anybody finally tell me what the hell is it for? only thing i see is that it realy cannot detect internet connection - even if running inet through wmdc conection. will work on it - you have to provide info what is it good for :-)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] tobiaslutz:
Hi nocturne.op.15 thanks for you're tip. I already flashed back to the wm5 but I will give it another try.

Windows Live is for accessing you're hotmail account, msn space, and so on. I also wasn't able to sign in into the live messenger.

Update: After flashing again to Wm6 it syncs like a champ.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] pedro12:
Menu sounds for ver.4.2

If somebody's missing the menu sounds for WM6 v4.2 just download this cab and install on your device. After that wait 20 sec and turn off your Charmer.

Turn on and enjoy :)

Two ring delay

Hi everyone.

The WM6 ROMs still seem to have the same two to three ring delay as was the case with WM5. This problem in WM5 was removed by Tuatara in this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=258109&highlight=ring+delay+patch

I'm not so much bothered by the volume as i've modified the casing and volume is VERY loud, but still it seems there is a two ring delay before the phone actually starts ringing.

Does anyone know if the same ring delay patch by Tuatara can be applied to WM6? If not does anyone have any suggestions/comments as to if they have noticed this delay and if anything can be done about it?

HELP PLEASE!

I just tried flashing the latest ROM. I had version 2.5.

I originally tried option 1 but could not find "one note" so thought it could not have worked, as has been reported a few times.

I flashed with the second method and everything seemed to go ok but after the hard reset my phone just stays on the white t-mobile screen.

What should I do, i've tried another hard reset but still the same problem!!!

thanks.

Update: Now flashed back to wm5 from boatloader and official t-mobile wm5 rom

Update2: Now flashed to wm6 latest version using method 2. Yippee!!!!!
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
Thats right, you have to downgrade to wm5 before flashing new version of wm6.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] pjam:
i was up far too late last night getting mms to work and various other bits and bobs.

Has anyone got a2dp working on this latest rom? i've tried the previous wm5 tweaks and all files/registry seem to be there but i still don't get the option to "set as wireless headset" when i press and hold on the headset.

thanks

Also, would it be prefered if questions like this are in another thread?
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] nocturne.op.15:
- is anybody using java midlet manager?

- is anybody using app called SAP manager?

they are often included in branded roms, but is anybody using them? in fact, i have no idea what are they good for :-)

pjam: be patient, mms will work in next version which is almost ready. also windows live, transcriber, softkey applet, phonepad and voicedialing. was quite hard weekend :-)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] youser:
Is there any other way to run J2ME-apps on Charmer apart from the midlet manager? I'm using this app to start any Java app for mobile devices (JAR-files).

The SAP manager... well... I don't know what it's about. It says something about remote access to my SIM card. Never used this.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] pjam:
I certainly don't use either of those manager applications.

I actually found a copy of mms composer at about 1am this morning. although it's an older version than the one in the 2.5 rom.

Thanks for the update.

By the way, the latest rom is really fast. Especially using omapclock.

(I've had a lazy weekend.)

Hi

I have problem with "speaker on" mode in the phone app. its hardly quite.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] damac:
Hi all. I have a doubt and I'm not sure this is the right thread to post this or not, but couldn't figure out where to post, so....

As far as I know, Charmer has EDGE connectivity. I'm in UK and have web'n'walk package which should give me EDGE connectivity. But the icon on top of the screen always says G and not E.

I've checked the associated registry entry which is something like 'EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon' and the value is 1 which should enable the icon on top of the screen for EDGE if it is detected / available.

So my question here is: How do I know i'm connected on EDGE as I feel the connection is quite slow. But I also suspect, that the browser could take long loading things coz processor is slow.....

Is it possible that the EDGE icon is missing? Anything to do with WM6?

Anyone can shed any light??? I'm just puzzled as too many things possible.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] pjam:
I'm sorry to say that T-Mobile uk do not use Edge. They chose to concentrate on 3g coverage.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] pedro12:
You should modify this registry value to 1 instead of 0 to see connection type disparately.

HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon = 1

Furthermore you can set the connection time to be viewable and disconnect button as well just change this line to 16.

HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 16
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] damac:
Oh cr@p!!! :( they don't even do EDGE :cry:

Thanks for the ifo though. pedro12, the registry value for the EnableDiffer.... was already 1, that's what I was saying earlier. But thanks for the other tip on connection time and dc button.

Now will have to hunt for a new provider to get a contract from, starting august.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] nocturne.op.15:
well, i have no need to run java apps on wm device and i didn't know that this is easily possible. There will be nice to tell others about usefull java apps you use in separate thread - i'm realy interested about it :-)

last time i used java on siemens s55 4yrs ago, so quality of apps has probably changed :-)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] loskarlitos:
I´m studying in Germany an i use two right usefull JAVA applications. The first one is train schedule and the second one railway guide of the Jena City. These apps are not as WM apps available , so i would really miss the Midlett Manager.

At the Weekend i tried WiFi connection with a SDIO Wlan card (i-tec) under ROM 2.5 at it works very fine. The SDIO drivers for wm2003 works under WM5 and WM6 too .
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
As far as I know, there is no other way to launch Java application but with the Midlet Manager.

I dont know about you guys, but I tried a few java apps and it worked ok on that.

Please HELP , I seem to have a big toubles.

Hello again. Today i was trying to flash a WM6 2.5 ROM back on my Charmer , because the SDIO doesen't run good under the original ROM.

It was the 5.-6. time I flashed the 2.5 ROM with the second method.

Everything run perfect , but after the HR came fisrt the T-mobile splash screen :

IPL 2.06 SPL 2.06.000 GSM 02.19.21 ... and so on ... then came the BEEP which indicates the display calibration but the screen keeps WHITE. :eek: I can TAP on th screen how i like , but nothing happend. :(

This is the fisrt time that happend something like that. I flashed the 2.5 ROM minimal 5.time OK , before that happend. I upgraded from last original t-mobile CZ ROM .

What can i do now :confused: :confused:
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] pjam:
loskarlitos

I had similar (not quite the same) trouble the other night.

1. Don't panic

2. Enter the boot loader mode, (Press and hold camera, press reset button for a couple of seconds, release reset button, wait for three colour screen, release camera button)

3. With the phone attached to the pc via usb, run an official T-mobile ROM update.

4. Try the WM6 2.5 rom again.

5. Have a cup of tea.

pjam
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] pjam:
I am happy to test it although I think my wife is getting a little annoyed about me spending so much time playing with my phone. :)

They did work fine with the 2.5 rom but I can see that this latest rom is quite a bit different.

[MDA Compact II ROM Development] jameslovell:
Same problem here too!!! does anyone have a fix for this? maybe in the next ROM update?? :D
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:

Hmm, so my wife can be fixed with a rom update.

[MDA Compact II ROM Development] melvincz:

[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
dont start an offtop please ;)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] loskarlitos:
Works fine , thanks really lot. :)

What about to write this simple troubleshooting as pjam desribed to the first topic or to the XDA Wiki ? Maybe with the SD-boot solution too.

I try to write a short instructions in Ger-Eng-Cz - like what to do when the flash unsuscesfull was.

Interresting thing : the SDIO Wlan card (i-tec) wokrs much better under WM6 (ROM 2.5) as under the original t-mobile ROM. By the old one the card wont wake up as i entered the stand-by and waked up my Charmer again. By the WM6 i just need to pull the card out , put it in again and start browser or somethnig like that.

The Wi-Fi option under Settings-connection works well , the Wireless LAN and Wireless Manager dont support the SDIO as it seems.

Please dont remove any WIFi support in the comming WM6 ROMs !!!

new version is available + a little bit of reconstructing of the first post :)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] madkoe:
Hi, I've just upgraded to 004.4 .

Just one thing , how can I change the today screen letting appear the carrier and the bluetooth manager instead of the internet calling line?

edit:

with the last rom I had almost 30MB memory free , with this just 23...
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
madkoe: this rom includes file and font cache, system should run much faster.

I don't know what do you mean... Settings-> Personal -> Today ?
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] madkoe:
In the last ROM's today screen , there was a line from where you had the possibility to switch on or off the phone , and the bluetooth as well.

In this Rom's today screen , this line has been replaced by "internet Calling" .
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
Use comm manager instead.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] madkoe:
Yeah I do, but I was asking if it was possible to change it ;)

Thanks
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] madkoe:
I've found the way to re-enable the wireless today plugin :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items]

Create a new key named "Wireless" (YOU MUST USE THE QUOTES)

Create string named: DLL

Value = netui.dll

Create DWORD named: Order

Value = 9

Create DWORD named: Enabled

Value = 1

Create DWORD named: Type

Value = 4

You should'nt need to reset your device. You can enable\disable the plugin by tapping Start, Settings, Today, Items Tab and selecting the plugin.

Hope this helps ;)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] nocturne.op.15:
madkoe: thanks for help. i started looking for what i have deleted accidentaly :-) i will fix it...or:

in fact, i don't find this usefull.

1) you should know what operator ru using :-)

2) turning of radio is still possible taping singhal strenght icon (from windows mobile 2002 i think)

This plugin is consuming precious space, but is relatively useless. I will remove this one and also internet calling module to save space - they will be provided as standalone modules for people who wants them. saved space will be usefull for possible rom cookers.

regarding that memory - vlodeck alredy told you about increased system cache. and also do not forgot that some apps were added - transcriber about 1mb, mms support about 8mb, voicedial 300kb - those are system integrated apps that are starting their modules partly directly during startup...

thanks for fast feedback madkoe, good work :-)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] loskarlitos:
Thanks a lot guys for you excellent work :cool:

I will test the new ROM as soon as my Charmer will be charged. The SDIO Wlan is much better supported under WM6 , i'm pretty happy that i can use the WM6 and WiFi at the same time. I surfed all the day at the University :)

I'm quite happy about the return of voicedialing. Will it be possible - in future or so on - to remove the MMS support from the ROM ?

I don't want that you remove it - there was a lot of people asking for it - but porsonal i never send a single MMS in my life and never recived one :p

7 mb ist pretty lot of space for me - because of using the SDIO Wlan card i have to copy all of the internet stuff (Opera , Skype , WiFifofum ... ) in the memory .
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] nocturne.op.15:
loskarlitos: removing mms support will not add space to you. it will add space for creating rom - it has fixed size limit.

tested for 2 hours now (004.4).

for me now its perfekt:D , fast, all in I need and clean too, all 3rd part apps I need working!

absolutly the best

Greetings from germany:)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] deoli:
couple of thoughts on the 004.4 version:

- great work

- wow, it's fast

- I have to agree with madkoe, the CommManager today plugin was quite handy

- the GPS settings icon isn't activated by default (in Settings>Connections)

- Internet Explorer doesn't have a Home Page. When I start it up: "The address is not valid. Check the address and try again." And although the default_0409.html is in the \Windows folder it's not possible to change the Home Page in Internet Explorer.

- the "USB charging through the Cradle while ActiveSyncing via Bluetooth blablabla" story seems to have come to a happy end.

- I miss the X-Button app, I know there's plenty of 3rd party apps doing the same but I think that's such a basic thing, it should be in ROM

Cheers. Have a beer, too much coffee is not good for you.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] loskarlitos:
Hmmm , i'm affraid i didnt understand it well. But that doesen't matter at this moment , because this is not the final version , isn't it ? :confused:

You speak about ROM cooking possibility in the first topic - will these be the solution of reducing ROM space - rebuilding without a MMS support ?
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] nocturne.op.15:
- I have to agree with madkoe, the CommManager today plugin was quite handy

that plugin is absolutely useless if you know how to handle your device. but we will leave it...

- the GPS settings icon isn't activated by default (in Settings>Connections)

no, it's not. good idea...

- Internet Explorer doesn't have a Home Page.

we know...not important, we left it for now, no more energy for now :-)

- I miss the X-Button app

xbutton is 3rd party app. it will not be included.

however, closing apps is slower than switching them. i do not undestand those people that are strictly turning apps off. it is technical nonsense - each app has its own space in memory. turning apps off has its purpose ONLY if mem is full, do not search for desktop windows similarities - more free ram will never speed up your ppc. Windows mobile IS NOT DESKTOP WINDOWS, RAM management is completely different...not paranoicaly closing everything will speed up app switching mroe than 1gb of free ram :-)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] deoli:
Excuse me! I know perfectly well how to use my device! And seeing what carrier I'm on when I'm abroad is quite a useful thing, because not all carriers have the same deal with my home network. Besides it was quite a handy shortcut to the CommManager. I guess I'll have to map it to a Button now.

No need to patronize. I'm just trying to help.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] nocturne.op.15:
was not meant badly- calm man. i will leave it where it is - but still think about it as useless junk. what about prefered networks list? ,-)

Hi,

just installed 4.4 with no probs using 2nd method after downgrading to wm5 first.

Seems great, very smooth. Well done.

Unfortunately stereo bluetooth (a2dp) is still not working on this rom. Like I posted previously, the 2.5 version worked without any tweaks but even after applying the usual well documented a2dp tweaks that usually get it working, it still will not show an option to "set as wireless stereo". Strangely when the headset is paired the wireless stereo option is selected.

I would be soooooooooooo greatful if someone could investigate this further.

Many thanks.

[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
dragon_from_serbia: flash with another method
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] loskarlitos:
Try the second flash method. There is a good description (Word doc) in the RAR archive file.

---------------------------------------------------------

So first 30 minutes with the NewRom

Wifi SDIO works great , No problems with Opera. But also not properly rekognized under conections-Wireless Lan - extra drivers are needed , i think that deepends on this SDIO Card (Low Cost Chinse Junk :) )

Remote desktop , internet sharing and others located in Programs - i found an Extra Folder for it in 2.5 ROM better but easy to fix.

I dont really miss the CommManager today plugin , but how can i use this Internet Calling option ? Does it work ?

Subjectivly is the Boot faster as in 2.5 , Menus react faster but on other hand some reactions are slower. But hard to say ...

Anyway great work
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] vlodeck:
The t-mob customize is in your extended rom, to avoid its installation you could just soft reset your device :) You can hard reset the wm6 now and do when the Customize windows appears press soft reset with stylus.
