If you check the 4minmobile.com forum, JJ released a SECOND release of the Shadow rom. He fixed all the file errors, boot errors, and battery errors. It was something to do with a file for the radio. Anyways, if you are still having issues, reflash with the rom that is posted on the website. It is enclosed in a .rar format instead of the EXE he had posted before. I reflashed this morning and it works wonders now. I was having boot issues up the a$$.

tanks for trying to help but my settings are the exact same as you have I can send just fine just can not receive for some strange reason. if I switch to another rom it works just fine.

Hi,

I´m having issues with HTC Home plugin, I mean, it work fine but the weather part is bad because I configured my city from the list (it was there, I didn´t need to add it), but it updated the first time, then it wasn´t update the weather and says that information can´t be downloaded but my EDGE and connection settings are fine, I can browse the web without problems.

How can it be fixed?

Regards,

Taguapire.

I have the same problem, using US T-mob
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] caturix:
MMS. Boot etc

I was using the latest .rar version. My apologies for being vague. I wasn't actually blaming the ROM for the problem. I probably could have kept it on after the hard reset. It could have been caused by other factors. I am back on LVSW for two reasons. First because I have had no problems whatsoever from it and second because I didn't feel like expending a bunch of time or effort figuring out what was wrong. If it happens on LVSW I will investigate further.

I really like the black shadow improvements. The new today screen is great and I like a lot of the upgraded apps (even the calculator). :D

HTC Home Plugin Weather update

I Believe it is TMobile Gprs. I have tried 3gp LVSW, Black Dymond, Black Shadow(Latest), Slueth's Version of LVSW. The weather plugin wouldnt update. I am using Blackberry Connect $19.99 plan. I even tried using the proxy settings for ****s and giggles. I can surf the web with no problems at all. But cant update weather in the plugin. I can update using active sync and wifi, but not GPRS.

I also found that the battery runs out allot faster with this rom.. think its the HTC today plugin.. Im getting close to flash back to Black 3.0.1..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tj924:
You need to turn off the "Receive all incoming beams" option under "Settings, Connections". Black Dymond, & possibly other ROMs, had this off by default which results in better battery life.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mack:
thats the first thing i do after installing new rom....so its not the beam...i think its the actual rom itself

MS Office Communicator Mobile does not work

Hi all,

I have a problems with MS Office Communicator Mobile.

In previous versions it did not work with VoIP (SIP simultaneous usage).

Now i do not have VoIP installed with Black Shadow, but MS Communicator says - "Unable to connect to network". It does not even tries to establish 3G connection.

Anybody has this problem ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mishu:
I am using Offce Communicator 2005 without any problems with BlackShadow. Did you check the server address? I have to add port 443 at the end of the server address in order to have it working.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chrisjasper:
So far for me its been flawless, battery life is about the same as its always been once you turn off beams and turn down the screen brightness and the other bits I always do.

The HTC plugin doesnt appear to make any difference to battery life, for me anyway.

The whole thing is fast and stable and just works, which is what I need.

It probably helps that I havent installed any SPB software as well.....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jompao:
Thanks, found it!

But it does not seem to work to send mms, I've doubble checked my settings which has worked on all previous roms.

This mms software doesn't behave the same as on other roms where it would disconnect current 3G connection and connect again for sending the mms. Here the message tries to send and then just sits in the out box. No error message or nothing. Any suggestions?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Inphyy:
Thats strange,it works for me, the disconnect current connection and everything, you probably have forgotten some of the settings somewhere?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jompao:
I've tripple checked the settings which are set according to the information on 3 Swedens website for HTC Tytn.

What setting are you using under servers/connect via: ? Accoring to my information I should here have the the name of the data connection which is "3uppkopplingen". I did notice when I changed to "work" I got the normal question about disconnecting, but it does not send the message.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] yozh:
got a little problem :) :(

Everything was going great from my initial flash on monday up until last night, when I decided to put 1.43 radio on. After the falsh the phone was so slow, I mean it took 4 minutes to come up, then when it did it looked like it was stuck on stupid. Everything slow I couldnt even get a activesync connection, so I put it in bootloader and reflashed shadow then SPL 2.10 then 1.43 installed all my apps. Now some times when I softreset it gets stuck, Thank god I have SPB pocketplus which has safe mode, if I go to safe mode then reset its fine, what ta hell is going on here ???? Thanks in advance :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Inphyy:
you flashed Shadow before SPL 2.10?

Was the shadow in .rar or .exe format?

Not asking for a solution (unless someone ahs experienced the problem themself and has a quick pointer). Just testing this ROM, this is what I have noticed:

1. Powers up into landscape mode occasionally

2. Unresponsive D-pad navigation on HTChome today plugin

3. Possible memory leak. On clean startup 22mb free, after using activesync and some email, etc, down to 9-11 MB free. When I close all open programs, only goes back to 13-14 MB free. Not sure about this one as some service may still be running?

I am pretty sure that this is caused by the magnet of your case.

2. Unresponsive D-pad navigation on HTChome today plugin

This plugin is a bit tricky to use with dpad, when it seems to be freezed just press the down arrow from the d-pad.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Lurch3559:
Took a while to put all of that in but I got it.

I am going to make a config file for it in Settings Savior if anyone is interested, let me know I will do it tomorrow.

Also in order for it to work for me I had to set to these values

xpos=8,ypos=37,width=70,height=18

also using 8525

The shadow rom have the default sounds (menupop,startup...) disabled, if you want them just download the cab from this thread:

Link

This cab changes the registries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/snd to enable default sounds.

They add a nice feeling to WM6. I actually did it manually at first but later I found this thread with the cab. lol. That's what happens for not searching.

Better yet Bram, build your own ROM, if you didn't like the ROM there really is no reason to post it on here or anywhere else especially the fact that you just don't like the look. Just use a ROM that is pretty, the ROM's are developed for stability and the cookers preferences, not all ROM's are going to be for your liking.

I've now revereted back to LVSW's latest rom which as usual works like a charm.

1)Programs like msn and mspaint and few others just close on there own, including esmertec java app..

2)After the 2nd day the phone took 1min to come out of sleep mode.

3)I was missing calls, sms and mms took hours to come through or go out! 4)HSPDA speed was insanely slow and sometimes i cant get the gprs connection to disconnect!

5)The slow startup after soft reset made me insane.. Phone is so damn slow you cant do anything! [FIX] Had to take out the memory card when soft reseting and only put it back in after the phone booted up! But then still sometimes the memory card wont pick up and then some of my stuff dont want to work..

These 5 problems were enough to make me flash back to Black3.0.1.. Now im happy again! Faster Stabler Rom!! :rolleyes:

One question though! Is there a .cab for the HTC Todayplug for other rom versions? or cant it be ported?
