feature request

Custel 2.5bbc -- your the man

Everyone else as a whole that helps make wm6 roms better thanks also.

Not sure if your a dialer guy but it would rock if when people call you or your talking to someone the image of the person from your contact list could be any size you set such as 1/2 the screen size. Even having the picture bigger when you view a contact. Yea I could buy that half-baked photo contacts program that eats all my ram, slow and sort of integrates..

thank you all,

Often after doing a ROM upgrade, the battery life indicators get a bit inaccurate. A complete drain-and-recharge of the battery should fix this.

Try this: Run your phone until the battery is completely empty (you cant power it up anymore). Then, with the phone still off (NOT on standby, before WM6 is even loaded), plug in the power to charge the battery until it is completely full.

EDIT: There is a small risk of corrupting your SD card or phone storage, if your battery runs out while Windows is running - this happened to me once, and I had to hard-reset my phone and reformat my SD card. Please take proper care, and if you really want to completely drain your battery - probably the safest way to empty the battery is, once your battery indicator drops to 10%, reboot the phone into bootloader mode (tri-color screen) and let the battery run out there.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Scrog:
@hardcore: Good suggestion. I have noticed that as well, total drain plus full recharge gets battery life back to normal.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Fidalgos:
I now from @Custel there isn't included in this rom, but I attach two files... first you install the cyberon_voice_dial.cab (this is a courtesy from @Custel), then soft-reset, after the SR you install the CyberonVSD_patch.cab (SReset one more time) and you have the cyberon voice dial 1.2 and the possibily to save or load the voice tags :)

Problems with POP3 after upgrade to Custel WM 6 - 2.5

For some reason, after I upgraded to Custel's 2.5, Standard, I can't connect to my work e-mail through POP3. It was working with the original CW 8525 ROM and, until yesterday, with the ATT upgrade. But now it doesn't anymore.:confused:

What's weird is that for gmail it does work, both through USB and GPRS. But nothing on my work mail. BTW, work e-mail is running Exchange Server 2003, SP2. Not sure if WM 6.0 is managing certificates differently.

This could be a problem since we only have Exch. issued certificates.:rolleyes:

Has anybody had a problem with Live Messenger using this ROM or the previous v2.0 ROM?

When I try to change my display name or add a personal message I get an error saying there was a problem processing your request.

I'm using an Orange M3100 with the latest bootloader, radio etc and never had this problem on Black or LVSW ROM's I've tried.

Other than that this ROM seems sooooo fast and stable :)

Edit: Found the solution: Clear your picture and name on your Windows PC MSN then the mobile version will work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] armedmetallica:
Ahhh -- you might be on to something. I typically do a full discharge/charge once a week or so. Not just on tytn, but anything that's rechargable, i feel should be "exercised".

Anyhow, I hadn't had a chance to do that with phone after I flashed ROM because I was traveling, needed phone to be operational all the time!

Figured it was related to radio or rom searching for signal, etc -- not at all the angle you said.

Im sure this is probably addressed somewhere but my searches are coming up blank. Since flashing to this rom my keyboard works about 95% correctly, a few keys dont work properly. ie: when i try to type an @ sign i get a ? same problem with a few other keys. is there a fix for this? or is anyone else experiencing the same problem?

USB Sync problems

Since updating to this, I've had problems synchronising, it says connected, then drops. It's really intermittent.

Bluetooth doesn't have much more luck either :)

Also, if I click an email, it goes back to the today screen. I have to press the messaging button again, has anybody had this problem?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CraigP17:
the email/sms thing where u click and it sends you back to Today screen has nothing to do with this particular ROM, ive had that happen with others as well. usually when i have a lot of texts/emails and/or if outlook/sms has been open and running for a while. try closing Messaging, and clearing your text messages.

Hard SPL Issue

OK, I have read the whole thread and several others and have not found anyone with this issue. I currently have XDA Live version WM6 on my 8525. The following is what is described in the bootloader screen; HERM100, IPL-SSPL By Des, HERM100, SPL-1.09.ds

When I run the RUU Wrapper to update the SPL via activesync, I get through the initial steps and it goes to the screen, "verifying data on device." Next I get the screen, image version-3.22.110.1. I click on update, the 8525 then resets and goes to the bootloader screen and loses the activesync connection. After which the "found new hardware" screen appears on my PC and tries to install the driver for a "USB device." The phone will not leave bootloader mode and will not reconnect via activesync. In the update software I get the error message, [260] stating the "update utility can not connect to your PDA......

What the heck can I do??? Am I stuck with this old ROM? Also on the bootloader screen it says "Serial" on the bottom in the white quadrant.

I am using Win XP SP2 with activesync 4.5 build 5096. Device info as follows:

CE OS 5.2.968 (Build 17217.0.0.0) XDA

ROM Version 3.22.110.1

ROM Date: 01/04/07

Radio Version: 1.33.31.00

I uninstalled and reinstalled Activesync AGAIN! and now it is working. Keeping my fingers crossed!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Radical_MT:

Adobe Reader LE Problems

Hi all.

I can't seem to get Reader to open a pdf unless i first launch reader then open the file. I can't just open it from file explorer or from an email that it is attached to. When I attempt to open it from an email it says it isn't downloaded and prompts me to redownload it. I then tried to save it to file and open it from file explorer, when I attempt to open it that way it says the file is either not signed or one of its componets can not be located. If i open reader and open it from within there it opens just fine with no errors. I attempted to open a few more pdf files all with the same results. I tried to hard reset to see if maybe something i installed after installing this rom had caused the problem, i had been running it with no issues for about two weeks now and this was the first time i experienced this. I then tried to upgrade to Custel's latest with all the fixes built in, i had the first and just downloaded the cabs, i experienced the same problem. Is anyone else experencing this?

Ok I found the solution to this, I dont know how to make a cab file to do this automatically but here are the registry values that need to be changed.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pdffile\shell\open\command\

"(default)"="ppc_adobereaderle.exe "%1""

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pdffile\shell\opendoc\command\

"(default)"="ppc_adobereaderle.exe "%1""

the values that were in there originally had an extra .exe at the end of ppc_adobereaderle.exe hope this helps someone else.

Other than this little minor annoyance this is an excellent ROM thanks to CUSTEL for publishing it for others to share.

can you write the correct value for the 'default' for I understand... please!

*** modifyng the keys and values I obtain this message when I open a .pdf from explorer: Documents\filexxx.pdf contains an invalid path.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chambersaj:
When you navigate to those keys in the Registry you will see the value, it is named (default) it is a string type value. What i meant by the original value having and extra .exe was the original value was "ppc_adobereaderle.exe.exe "%1"" in order for the it to work you need to change it to "ppc_adobereaderle.exe "%1"" taking off the extra .exe, hope this helps you.

I'm using the cingular version so it may be a fix just fr it. another key you can try to check is

"Content Type"="image/pdf"

both registry entries in that key are type string. Hope that helps you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Lurch3559:
You have to be exact with the changes, there has to be a space between the exe and the "

There also has to be a " at the end, see below

You also have to make the changes to both registry entries

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pdffile\shell\open\command\

&

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pdffile\shell\opendoc\command\

Windows\ppc_adobereaderle.exe "%1"

I made these changes and mine is working fine, opens all pdf from the file.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Fidalgos:

The "H" indicates an active download/data connection where the high-speed is being used. 3G means you are in network.

So you will show 3G until you begin using the High Speed data and it will automatically show the "H" during the active connection.

Out of the Blue Connection Issues

All has been good and stable for a while (2 weeks regular usage), then today I got a non-specific connection error when trying to connect to an ATT data source. I tried PIE and Resco Radio just to prove it was not application-specific. The connection bubble pops-up, a connection is made and then immediately dropped yielding unknown vanilla M$ error. Phone seemed to work fine. A soft-reset restored the data connectivity. Later in the day the problem returned. Couldn't get Internet connectivity, either via MediaNet (3G and Edge) or WAP. Same bubble, sudden drop and soft reset corrected the problem again.

I 've read in other threads (e.g. Faria ROM) that others have experienced sudden Internet connectivity issues with that ROM and other WM6 ROMs. Haven't seen it for Custel. Anyone else experiencing this and/or have fixes, thoughts, etc.?

How about building a list of what we would all like to see in this release besides having a great new kernel/build, ATI patches etc?

Such as:

pocketxpdf instead of acrobat

total commander instead of file explorer (total commander does zip so remove the Zip program also)

adding XNPocket for picture viewing (great program if you've never used it and its free)

Eval (free) remove Calc

if no one actually plays solitaire replace with Kevtris (free tetris)

just some thoughts..

A few ideas for CUSTEL 3.0

Hi Custel,

My wish list would be the following stuff ... not apps, per se, but I think they would be considered slight improvements:

1) Would it be possible for you to remove these files from the \Windows directory. As far as I can tell from my usage of this device, these files have no use, other than maybe to prove that an application is working correctly, because it can load them. Killing them all should save about 1.4MB of space, which isn't much, but it DOES help.

Alouette.mid -> 13.2KB

Bolero.wma -> 73.4KB

Capri.wma -> 114.0KB

Die Zauberflote.wma -> 93.0KB

Dogbark.wav -> 41.3KB

Flight of the Bumblebee.wma -> 69.6KB

Halloween.wma -> 47.1KB

Happy.wma -> 59.3KB

London Bridge.wma -> 57.4KB

Mozart Alla Turca.wma -> 68.7KB

Pizzi-cato Polka.wma -> 81.8KB

Pour Elise.wma -> 62.1KB

Trout.wma -> 76.2KB

X'mas song.wma -> 99.6KB

1-nature_15fps.mp4 -> 207.0KB

Birthday_gift.gif -> 39.0KB

Flower.jpg -> 40.0KB

Guava Bubbles.tsk -> 91.8KB

Heart.gif -> 35.8KB

Photo.gif -> 36.0KB

Pond.jpg -> 26.0KB

Utah.png -> 8.5KB​

2) Maybe you and/or Shadowmite could build an option into your Tweak App for the movement of messaging files to the Storage Card. There are two sets of RegEdits that need to be done to effect this change, as well as the creation of the corresponding directories on the storage card:

a) [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MAPI]

PropertyPath="\Storage Card\Inbox\"

AttachPath="\Storage Card\Inbox\Attachments\"

b) [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Settings]

PropertyPath="\Storage Card\Inbox\"

AttachPath="\Storage Card\Inbox\Attachments\"​

​

Again, Custel, I am really enjoying the Cingular 2.5 build. It has been extremely stabile, and very responsive. I thank you for cooking it up for us.
