Congratulations and thanks again for this new amazing release...

Downloading to test it now.

crazyC: Yes, would be a good idea to create a separate thread for all the other comments not related with issues/fixes/queries etc.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] daniel76:

i dont have acsses to ftp, is their other way fo downloading ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Malik05:

EDIT: its working now....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] nonexxx:
Thanks for new version I have now black 2.0, please

In this version good work bb connect 4.0.???

I'am sorry..

HEX Edited above to: 5.1.195 (17743.2.3.0)

This enables BBconnect and Goodlink compatability

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jcespi2005:
If you READ the first post, the OS version has been Hex edited to allowws BBConect work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JasenR:
OK, JJ has been promoted to god. Can't get any higher than that.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] odie3:
Just checking but you did unrar it first right? When you extract the main file you also have to extract the Black 3 Add-on CABS.rar file [you will end up with 9 files, 8 cabs and 1 *.txt file]

Now I feel like an Idiot! My appologies to all for such a stupid question.

I'm testing now, when I install the bbc 4 don´t work the BT, I now Install the BBC 2.1 and now very good the BT, now very good all, but I prefer BBC4 but the moment only work with 2.1... :-(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bingobob:
just a quick update and thanks to jj.

Been running 3.0 for four hours or so, TomTom seems to run fine (therefore bluetooth does to)...whole thing seems to hang together well and is v responsive.

Really appreciate the new splash screen and the fact that add ons are optional, it's the daddy, or is that diddy, runs fast which is number 1 for me...

rock on jj.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
Ok .. Just found an old Jabra JX10 earpiece in my bag...charged it up and connected to bluetooth without issue. Made a call, answered a call ... all worked fine.

Not really a fancy headset (no stereo, and certainly not an in-car connection) but on this quick and dirty test, my bluetooth is not having any problems.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arnoutboer:
Tested it... Without BBC 4 Bluetooth works fine. With it it doesn't.

*looking puzzled and thinking how to troubleshoot this further*

Messenger LIVE signin?

Am I blind or is there nowhere to enter your signin details in the MSN Live plugin? It just has a sign-in button!?

Am i mad or is it 2am billies?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] odie3:
So are you using BBC 4 or the BBC 2.1? Not that I really understand the difference between the two... I would take a lesson on the two. In any case, it would seem to me to stay away from this BBC 2 stuff.

Now if we can get a updated MSN Live/IM update I would all over this ROM. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
I am a goodlink user :) ... no blackberry for me. Maybe that is why everything runs so well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Deddiekoel:
The Windows Live cab is faulty and JJ is working on it. Me and some others are waiting for it...

Black 3 is working fantasticly for me and much better than 2.5 the following things have been improved:

- Black theme now has shiny bars

- PPCProfiles works

- Softkey chnager works without SR

- TTN starts with audio enabled

- Device ID is unchanged

- WLAN connections is properly kept when phone goes into standby

I completely love this ROM! Excellent work JJ, can't wait for WLM to make it complete!

Edit: Spoke a bit too soon, I seem to have some issues with my WLAN. It did connect just now but only for a short while...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] odie3:
Oh, so BBC stands for Blackberry Connect? Well then, I do not even need that stuff at all. I do not even use this goodlink either [not sure what that is either but I guess something like Blackberry push stuff]?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jmat:
I'm experiencing this too; I can't turn on BT from Comm Manager or from the Bluetooth settings. PhoneAlarm can't turn it on, either.

Weird; I'm going go try some things and will report back if they fix it.

EDIT: if you go into Pimp my Black and turn OFF OBEX support under "Comms", BT will start working as soon as you soft-reset. If I turn it back on (and reset), BT goes missing. Weird. No big deal - I don't use OBEX enough to care, but it's still strange -- I've never had problems with this before.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joel32137:
SPB Backup 1.5.5 runs really really slow on full backup.

Thanks JJ, This ROM seems to be really fast. One thing to report so far... The latest SPB Backup is running really slow for full backup as compared to Black 2.0 and 2.5. Backup's usually takes me 3-4 minutes, on Black 3, it's ran for 16.25 min. Anyone else experiencing this? Error logs says that it couldn't backup Windows\compimeh.0409.dat because it is blocked by the following processes: "NK.EXE"

jas u said to do this to get shiny black top and bottom bars back.. i dnt noe wat to do
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] 100Tbps:
Where can you find the device ID?

I went from WM5 to WM6 Black 2.5. I've read the device ID for Black 3.0 is the same as Black 2.0. I use both sling and tomtom, and I had to request a new sling code going from WM5 to WM6 (tomtom was brand new, so I'm using the original key). I'm wondering if I'll need to request new keys from these companies going from Black 2.5 to Black 3.0. My guess would be yes if the algorithm used to produce them is different between releases.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RandomDude:
I just backed mine up (Black 2.5) and I got this error too, So I don't think its a Black 3.0 specific problem...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
Yup ... no worries for you if you are not using blackberry software. Goodlink is an enterprise-wide blackberry competitor ... I use it since is is the software product of choice for my business ... it works great, has some annoying quirks, but I am stuck with it (for better or worse). Good news is that it plays nice with WM6.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] odie3:
Well then another possible tip/fix - wonder if that helps others that are having BT failures.

Edit:

About MSN Live/IM, was it beta version in Black 2.5? I assume so since JJ would not needed to state the one for this ROM is Final. Perhaps when the CAB is fixed so it will work, the Final version will also correct the issue where in Black 2.5 I could not chat with older MSN IM users [Messenger 4.7 or so].
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joel32137:
Hey RandomDude,How long did it take to do the backup? I just reverted back to 2.5 and it took like 4-5 min with nothing installed. With 3.0 and nothing installed, full backup is taking like 15 min....

Thx

(AGAIN MAD RESPECT TO ALL OTHER COOKERS AS FOR I HAVE USED ALL ROMS ON HERE ALREADY...I HAVE TWO HERMES...LOL)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RandomDude:
Just running another one, I will time it for you.. Expect an edit to this post

EDIT:// Ah, it was a 16.4mb backup, and its taken at least 15mins - Probably more like 20. I did have a few programs installed tho.

I'm not too sure whats going on...

You should get a legal copy of Vista x64 and download from M$. Besides being a pirate, why would you post as such on a forum that is obviously being watched? Try a warez site, of which this is not.

On a lighter note. This ROM is BY FAR, the fastest WM6 based rom i've ever used!

When I check the Device ID in the settings menu or dial *#06# the IMEI (or Device ID) looks to be the same as before 2.5. But when I want to register Opera it says the IMEI is different! Also under 2.5 TTN needed to activated again. Now in 3.0 Opera will register and TTN already was!

Wasn't there an HTC "close-app x-button" in black 2.5?

DISREGARD - FOUND IN SETTINGS... SORRY.

I thought I remembered an official HTC app that would turn the OK button into a Close button. I don't see it being removed in the list of apps on Post 1, but I don't see it included in 3.0 either. Anyone have a cab or link?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] eaglesrest:
Aargh! Thanks for the release, but my TomTom will now not activate. I had 2.5 on, got a new key from TomTom and now that's it.

I'm effectively stuck on 2.5 for 6 months upon which time I can get a new device ID, or I lose my TomTom and traffic subs.

TomTom say they want proof of my replacment phone as they recognise it as a new device.

Curse black 2.5!! ;)

Background / Wallpaper / Theme Issue

ditto on this issue...i can manually select a wallpaper/background but if there is one IN the theme, it will not load over top of the default black image. However, the built-in Windows Mobile Green and Guava Bubbles seem to overwrite the background correctly. I am attaching a theme that SHOULD install a background image but doesn't on 3.0 (worked on 2.5).

Everything else seems pretty stable thus far!

SBP Backup - Errors the same way with all WM6 revs I believe (compimeh.0409 needs to be excluded)

Fix: Edit this string: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Spb Software House\Sbp Backup\SkipErrFiles

Add new string:

Name 6

Value: %Windows%\compimeh.0409.dat

You add new string for all the errors, putting the run in the same way.

got this from Scrog with Black 2.0 :)

BT prob- contd

OK, had the BT hardware errors prob

Reflashed 3.0 and setup everythg again and now, so far,all OK with my SE DS970 plus Holox BT GPS. Only difference is I didn't use Pimp my Black or the Perf cab. Don't think either of these were anything to do with it but I'll see how it goes and use them later.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TBCompDesign:
I too had the "Bluetooth hardware problem" problem. I have a Cingular 8528 hermes.

I had previously run "Pimp my Black" and kept a bunch of things default and added a few items. My Blueteeth didn't work. I then disabled "enable Rx Files over BT/IrDA", and soft reset.

Now it works.

anyone else having the BT problem. try disabling this setting and give it another whirl.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Deddiekoel:
Since my last post my WLAN has been working fine. So everything looks to be working. BT also looks good but haven't been able to test it with a BT device (my GPS is in the car)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] y2whisper:
To get the shiny black bars, you have to select windows default as the theme and then do the regedit. (if you are weary about doing this, you can export the reg key first and then change it back after.

and then if you want to go normal black use the wmbe skin.

Let me know if it works for you as it did for me
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Patrickfly:

Going back and forth with this WLAN stuff.

Tried surfing etc over the WLAN connection but it keeps dropping. My other WLAN devices are fine so I think WM6 is the culprit...

Also it can only find one wireless network...

I think the WiFi bubble fix might be the cause. After a SR WLAN works fine and holds the connection. Before the SR changing it in the bubble looked to have caused the flaky connection. Currently streaming internet radio to see how long it will last...

Great once AGAIN

I just pimped my Hermes again. This ROM is SUPER FAST! Many have reported issues with BlueTooth not working and I had the same situation.

I read here that someone said that SPB Mobile Shell was causing this BT issue so I removed SPB Mobile Shell and then all was fine. Before removing this software I had tried doing a SR and that worked until BT was turned off and on again.

I will reinstall SPB Mobile Shell just to be sure on this and will report back later.

EDIT: I reinstalled SPB Mobile Shell and kept BT ON while doing so. Then I did a SR and all is fine now.......weird to say the least!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Deddiekoel:
My WLAN just crapped out again. So after a SR it keeps a connection for 17 minutes and then becomes flaky...
