Same here, but I've had that issue on a bunch of ROMs. I went back to Schap's original 3.30c ROM and will see how that goes. Also, I use ISP.CINGULAR and have issues with the data connection dropping whenever a call is made (I had this issue when the original AKU 3.5 AT&T came out and it's something with the registry and proxy).

it seems to be working on okay for me. This is on feature I like about this ROM , I don't have to set the time, date, or TZ on a HR. Very stable ROM.

I noticed a couple of challenges:

1. Device name seems to change on SR

2. I had the noisy sound right after I paired my headset (jawbone). But I did a SR and no noise yet.

I know this is usually a scary post, but, how do I flash to this ROM? All I've ever flashed are official ROMs but I want to try this. Btw, I'm a systems administrator so I'm pretty knowledgeable, just not about this.

Do I just run the RUUWrapper? Do I have to point it to the .nbh file or does it automatically find it? Another thing is, if this ROM doesn't work out or I don't like I just flash back to Official and restore from backup right?

The reason I want to try this one is because it's just the OS and not the radio or anything else. And also because everybody seems to be loving it!

Thanks for any help and sorry to clutter the thread with this kind of question.

I'd suggest you read and read. When you're done reading, read some more :)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Confused Stu:
Should you run it?

Hi Memnoch. Before you even think about installing ANY of the WM7 ROMs on this site, you've got a lot of reading ahead of you!

Firstly, you'll need to install Olipro's Hard SPL (v7) to protect your phone against the most common causes of "bricking". Then you can flash this update, but if anything goes even slightly wrong you'll have a very long path ahead of you to get a working phone again - it's not just a case of running a backup. To put it into context, that's a little like saying you can fix an NT-2003 hardware server change because you've got a backup of your files!

Please spend some serious time looking over everything on this site (and in particular MrVanx's excellent guides) but don't expect to be flashing ANYTHING for at least 48hours IMHO.

Ask yourself how happy you'd be trying to fiddle with the electronics inside the device just because you bought a soldering iron on ebay - it's the same kind of thing!

After you're happy and confident, then I'd thoroughly recommend vp3G's ROM - in my opinion it's the best out at the moment! :)

Cyberon VC

Hey guys and girls. I looked at all the picsa nd didn;'t C Cyberon Voice command. I was wondering if anyone had a CAB for this? I have come to love this program and don't want to spend the $$ on MS commander. I have searched and everything i have found TALKS about CVC, but no posts as to where i can download it. I am using LVSW's 5-19 build and want to switch to this ASAP. But I NEED that CVC for my everyday use. ( I can't dial numbers while driving, so i use this and it works like a charm. )

Thanx for you help ahead of time.

I think it's somewhere in lvsw's new rom thread... Just click on the paper clip to see the attached files, including .cab

I've been reading for what seems like weeks and I think i am going to take the plunge this weekend. I have a couple of quick questions...

1. I am using the original Cingular 8525 release with MS Voice Command 1.6. I had to install a little hack in order to get it to work with my BT headset (jetware or one of the user created hacks here). What is the status of BT with this ROM and voice command? Are these native BT issues now resolved or will i need to install one of these fixes again, and do they work in WM6?

2. What is the difference between the Cingular configurations here and some of the stand alones like the one from wpbear?

3. One thing that isnt abundantly clear to me is if i need still unlock my CID or will the olipro SPL take care of all that?

4. Whats the best radio for northeastern USA?

Thanks all for any assistance!

I really like this ROM. However, I do not receive caller ID info when receive a call. I have not had this problem with any other ROM.

Well then my registry is not commiting what so ever because not one setting is ever being kept no mater how long I keep it running. If I turn off the device and then turn it back on the next morning ALL settings are back to default.

Tonight I am flashing with a new 512mb sandisk card I just got just for flashing roms and Im trying your 2.0... wish me luck on this one...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] SkOrPn:
Ok well so far so good. First thing I have noticed is this is the fastest rom so far. The flashing acted weird as it stayed on the splash screen a scary long time and then stayed on the windows mobile screen even longer, so much so that I had to do a SR. But after the sr it started up just fine and installed what ever customizations you had for us at&t guys....

Since I do not have cell service up here in the mountains I will have to wait until tomorrow to test out the phone and MediaNET services. I pray that my BT works ok this time.

Great ROM man and thanks for all your hard work. I've got this running with no problems. At first I had some sleep of deaths but found out it was because SPB backup was installed to my sd card. I removed it and put it on the main memory and everything is perfect again. I really like the proxy manager setup because I switch between wifi at a few places and then back to 3g+ when running around town. And I dig the professional looking boot/splash screen a definite plus.

Keep up the great work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] toyfreak:
1. AFAIK BT is still broken. Some have gotten things working with the hacks here and elsewhere; I am not one of them...

2. The Cingular optimized ROMs take care of the carrier settings, keyboard layout, etc. and some include Cingular Video, Cingular XM, etc. The non-Cingular ROMs are fine if you are willing to dig in and find the right .CAB files. It's all here, you just have to find it.

3. HardSPL V.7 will temporarily SuperCID your phone. This is the FIRST thing you should install (read, read, read...) The WIKI is your friend...

4. The consensus is 1.40.30.00 is "Cingular optimized" and many are still using it despite newer versions.

Messenger is having some issues it seems. On the today screen while logged into messenger it will show how many contacts i have online.

I have never clicked the Enable or Disable proxy icons.

I can go to http://home and pull up the media net page. Is it safe to assume I am on the proxy?

I can also enable WiFi, connect to my router at my house. Then I can remote desktop to my pc using the internal IP address. I can also pull up websites at > 1mbit instead of 500-800k/s.

Does my phone just magically work around the bug you list?

wifi is much improved. Links up everytime when I select connect after choosing an access point. However, the phone tries to connect to other access points when I turn off then on. I think I have to many access points in my area. 10 access points. I am going to try to move the slider for better performance (set to middle). This is where my 8125 was set and it stayed on the same access point everytime it was off then on. Also, the phone takes a while to turn on. Is this rom tweeked for heavier duty apps to run better? I plan on using some heavy java apps.

When I am connected (as in sync) to the PC via WMDC 6.1, the internet connection is on by default but I find that other software turn on the GPRS when something needs to be updated as in weather.

Why does the GPRS not sense that I already have the TyTN connected to the internet and not to use the GPRS? Is there a registry change I need to make?

Wow did I do some testing and boy did I get some interesting results. It appears that with the proxy and wifi connected the only thing affected bizzarly is PiE.

With the proxy enabled and wifi connected to my router:

- PiE loads pages through the 3G service

- PiE - whatismyip.com shows the proxy ip address

- PiE is sometimes REAL slow to start loading a page and sometimes fast

- PiE cannot hit my internal router webpage

- Opera loads pages through my home wifi

- Opera - whatismyip.com shows my cable modem ip address

- Opera is real fast all the time, wifi speeds

- Opera can hit my internal ip address

- Internal tools, ping, and apps like VNC all are working through the internal wifi

- Nothing can hit the medianet webpage http://home

With the proxy disabled and wifi connected to my router:

- PiE loads pages through wifi blazing fast

- PiE shows my cable modem ip address via whatismyip.com

- PiE can hit my internal router webpage

- All other things are the same as above

With the proxy enabled and wifi off:

- PiE / Opera can load http://home

- PiE / Opera show the proxy ip address

With the proxy disabled and wifi off:

- PiE / Opera cannot load http://home

- PiE / Opera show a different non-proxy ip address
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
Thanks for doing the tests and sharing your results, pcm2a. :)

The proxy is embedded in the PIE config (you'll note that it doesn't appear in connections), so your results seem pretty much as I would expect. Sounds as though in some cases WM is flipping a coin with regard to which connection to use. Here again, pretty much as expected. And here I thought M$ had been to the school of hard knocks with multi-homing in the desktop/server world... :rolleyes:

Do you have today plugins installed to the storage card? If so, they may be the reason that you are seeing this happen. If not it may be another application that is causing this, and the only way to end the issue is by process of elimination. Also you may want to go to Start>Settings>Today>Items and set the today timeout to 12 hrs. (This has worked for me in the past with other ROMS.)

Well I am now at a complete loss for explanation. Bluetooth and WM6 and my Herm100 Cingular branded 8525 simply will not work properly.

In order to have a properly working Bluetooth hand free headset I have to have WM5 installed on the device. As soon as I try ANY WM6 rom my bluetooth is completely broken.

This rom is soo awesome but keeping it installed means completely giving up on using it as a hands free phone.

At this point I dont know what to do.... I hate WM5 and love WM6... :(

Can someone fly to my house at their own expense and install this rom for me? :eek:

Just kidding -- this is my first WM6 ROM install and I must say it works great, although I haven't yet tried bluetooth. I have no MMS or CID problems; the only thing "negative" I've found is I had the sleep of death once since installing (although I also occasionally had this with the Cing factory WM5 build) and the phone lost my HH:mm:ss time format after resetting.

I'd say this is THE rom for non-tweaker types. Works great with Exchange, and all my productivity apps (pocket breeze, pocket weather, pocket informant, etc.) work fine.

Assuming BT and TomTom work, this rom will be just about perfect!

Thanks for the nice work on the rom, and the great tutorial. The only thing that remains unclear, that someone else mentioned, is does the SPL and rom update process SIM unlock the phone? I am not sure how "temporary SuperCID" impacts the SIM unlock status.

Again, nice work.

Sorry A26, I can't really help you with playing the news, since I never use MediaNet and am not really sure what you mean. (enabling proxy on wap.cingular prevents me from getting push e-mail from my Office server).

However, when I was playing with it, I found that even with the proxy enabled, I couldn't play videos or get cingular video because I wasn't in a 3g area. Maybe that's the problem. Were you able to view these before?
