Windows Live sync still not working so I went back to check the Sync freq and saw it been reversed back to "Manual" so I changed it to "As Item Arrive" and tapped on done then went right back to check the setting and it back to "Manual" again.

Either it don't keep the current setting displayed or the rom is hardcoded at reserved back to Manual at AT&T request 8-P

Even with that enabled, I can not access Media Net over wifi. I can't even download a ringtone over wifi connection, have to enable Proxy and grab it on Edge.

I know this is a 3G device, but just found out my area won't be getting it until next year, probably. God I hate sh1t holes.

Internet Explorer In Wm6 Doesnt Work!!!

Hi everyone,

Fist of all, I must thank a lot to all those people doing this work, to make others happy with WM6, but I have some trouble that i wpould like you people help me a little.

I have a HTC 8525, and I download this last ROM of WM6, everything works great! but a few things doesnt work.

1) Internet explorer doesnt work, I use WiFi, it worked perfectly in WM5, but in this ROM version of WM6 it doesnt, and because of that, it gives trouble for many softwares that uses ie, you cant upgrade windows mobile, you cant surf in the net, you cant use your Xpress mail, you cant use windows messenger Live, or any other program that uses the internet, and a WM6 without internet, is nothing.

I try solving this problem, not only with the configuration of the internet itself, I do download opera 8 so that I can surf in the net, i download IM, so I can have messenger, but, for the other aplications that I mention wont work, because it uses ie.

2) What about the PTT?

I thought that in this ROM, it says that it has the latest 1.48 radio, but, in the settings, it doesnt appear to configure this 5th buttom, so I download the archive ptt.cab from rapidshare, to get the lattest ROM. But everytime I restart my HTC 8525, it says: "PTT findwindowsfailed", I press ok, and says: "Unregister Class Failed", I press ok, and says this:"PTT Service Class registration Failed"

Hope someone can help me with this 2 problems, otherwise, I will have to install the old WM5, that I would not like to do.

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Broken:
PTT is there and the button works, it is just not assignable so it doesn't appear in the button menu, just like the two soft keys.

For WIFI, go to programs, Proxy Manager and run Disable Proxy. That should do the trick for the WIFI Prob.

And Madcap 180, radios won't make a difference when there is no 3G service in my area yet... I live in Idaho, home of nothing, nothing and oh, woods.

HSDPA

vp3G,

Were u able to dig up any info as to why with this ROM HSDPA speeds are around 300-400kbps slower? After testing in several locations, I am fairly certain this is a ROM related issue... maybe AT&T is perposely capping bandwidth on wap.cingular vs. isp.cingular??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
I'm not seeing it. ATM I'm getting ~800-900K with the 1.40 radio, which is pretty standard for here.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] donsaxena:
i just got my hands on memaid 2.0 and did their extreme performance tweak for opera and ie and i gotta say i got edge speeds of 300kps. from before i got 250. just a thought if any one wants to give it a try.

Thanks for the proxy disable suggestion. it took away all my problems .Now i can browsw use windows live and also uses wifi and gprs to connect . Muchas gracias
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Roll3r:
In the latest MemMaid (2.0 I believe) there are various tweaks that can be applied to glyph cache, file system cache, etc. One of them is "Extreme Speed" which boosts the glyph cache to 32MB and the system cache to 256k I believe. Don't have my phone in front of me, but I think it also tweaks MTU as well as a few others.

Edit: With "Extreme Speed" set I still get HSDPA at around 650-750. No change from previous ROMs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] blbeesley:
Ok. I have some mega frustration with this new rom. After I install it, I have 29megs of free space . . . UNTIL I run sync to Outlook on my computer or run Word Mobile for the first time. Once I've done that, I have all of 5 megs of storage space. That's not nearly enough to install progs I use like Wisbar Advance, SPB MObile SHell, Phone Alarm, etc. VERY frustrating. I didn't seem to have that problem with the previous ROM that HTC/AT&T released.

Any ideas how to get my space back?

After about an hour, I'm ready to go back to vp 2.0h until he finishes up his exquisite and scrumptious meal. I nominate him right now for the next Hell's Kitchen!!!! vp3G - you da man!!!

P.S. The new Die Hard movie is a must see!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] 1970mueller:
I think the ROM is to satisfy all the 8525 users out there who want WM6, at least the official variant. vp has already said he is taking out the PTT, since most of us don't use it. That may be what's taking some time in his testing and final baking (at least I hope so). He really did make himself a hero for many of us. I'm really happy to have broken my Palm addiction, and he has made it so very satisfying with his other 2 versions. It just works, and works well. How do you dis that? (old ex-XDA cookers) hehehe... the pain of waiting and anticipation grows by the hour.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wreckerdude:

Is this HTC TYTN??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TechBill:
I think it would be better to take out the bloated PTT and put it on a cab then add the button 5 setting for PTT button. Whoever need PTT can install it via cab file.

I don't use PTT myself and been using PTT button 5 to a IM+ proggie to bring up my Instant Messager to the screen instantly at the press of a button.

This rom is for HTC 8525 for USA AT&T carrier but should work on any Hermes however the setting ie data connection or mms may need to be changed to work on other network carriers beside AT&T or the customization install may need to be skipped during the first time boot up after flashing.

using the at&T rom would like to keep the PTT so waiting for vp3g or custel. i had black majic which i was happy with. the only thing i am not happy with is the space with att official rom. if i could get more space with ptt i would stay. also a good solid bluetooth stack is a must for me. i can't stand it when calls go from car to phone. by the way i have heard very good things about his hybrid rom on his website.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Broken:
After trying this new AT&T rom for about two days, I am very happy. HTC Home plugin is so much more smooth than the other wm6 build I have tried, and def. better than the current "official" WM5 AT&T rom. New radio seems to be better.. hard to say after only one day. I have only had one lock-up, when I went from the HTC Home plugin and custom theme to stock AT&T desktop and stuff I usually have on there. I was showing a friend the difference between the two styles and guess I tried to change too many things at once and had to SR.

Now it is just the endless modding.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Funky B:
The bad:

I have experienced this issue twice. The only apps I have installed are:

today agenda

kaiser_HTC_Home

JUVS_HTC_CommManager_Kaizer_Fix

Wizard_reTOUCHed_Dialer2

pimp my black .2 (because I'm lazy)

GSFinder+

It's the HTCHome plugin causing the problem. The vibrate icon in the tray is annoying too...

The good:

Besides the issues this is the best looking operator rom to date, especially with the htc home plugin, kaiser commmanager and the touch dialpad. Another good point is the roaming icon went away. The new radio gives me slightly better reception and edge data speeds.

I uploaded the Ext rom if anyone needs it.

Just power through it... I find that if you don't get more than 2 hours of sleep it makes a long next day easier. It worked for me last night - I had a 13 hour day @ work today with no problems AND I got more done than usual :cool:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] djpablog:
I have noticed that when using the speedtest at text.dslreports.com I get an error stating that my mobile browser doesnt support Java and it just gives me a max of 100k. On previous versions I didnt have any problem at all, and was able to try the speedtest w/ the 1mb file. Does anyone else know of a reliable speedtest I feel my speeds have gone down w/ this ROM. I average about 800-950k but now i get about 200-500 it seems as its not getting to HSDPA but stays on UMTS even though the H does come up at times. BTW I also get the same message w/ the official dopod rom. Immediately after installation I did notice a file with PIE being installed along with the att apps...

EDIT: nevermind I went to the speedtest on my regular IE browser on my PC and get the same error msg it must be an error w/ the speedtest. sorry guys. but if someone knows of a good speedtest pls post.

A question from a while back...

OK this is actually my official first post on these forums! I've been here once or twice before but unfortunately never really found any "cooked" ROMs or downloaded anything interesting for my Cingular 8525.

Sounds like that is all about to change with the WM6 pre-release-official-whatever version, but I think I just might wait to see what vp3g has to offer in his 3.0 ROM ;-)

Anyway, my question is that does anybody know if this WM6 supports SDHC cards??? It was asked a couple times and noone answered! I JUST got a 4 GB microSD card last week and can't get it to work!!

So PLEASE! SDHC & WM6 work?

p.s. Right now I am just running the WM5 updated ROM with PTT and things, although like one other user said here, I don't know a single person with PTT :( But I am trying to convince SOMEONE I know to get a compatible phone, lol.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] cingulartreo:
push email

Is the HTML issue on push email, or pop3? I am using a free service called mail2web.com push email. they do not have exchange 2007 so their push email is not HTML. On the other hand, I set up my yahoo account on pop3 and I get HTML just fine.

Based on what I have read to date about push email problems, approximately 100% of feature issues relate to the server side of things, not the mobile side of things. Either the server is not the latest and greatest, or the admin has a feature disabled.

delete the msmetadata file from your storage card, then update your library again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pcm2a:
I tried that mail2web.com and it was free and worked really good, minus the no html email. The deal breaker for me was it's $1.99 if you want to send mail with your own email address. For example, you receive mail in your bubba@gmail.com account, but you can't reply to them from bubba@gmail.com. You have to reply from bubba@mail2web.com, unless you pony up the cash.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bpowell:
That would be the problem then! I use mail2web as well. Thanks for the quick answer. I thought it was a ROM thing because the option was there but grayed out.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] evilhomer:
This may have been covered but I did a search and found nothing. (I know that's what everyone says when they didn't search but I did. I did.)

Using various cooked ROMS, I've found the charging issue "hit and miss", especially on a car charger. It seems that with this ROM, my device will only charge when the screen is turned off. This is both for wall and auto charging. On previous ROMS, it would always charge with the wall charger but was hit or miss depending on the ROM version with the car charger. The car charging not working while the screen is on is VERY bad because I run TomTom 6 and the screen stays on.

Is this a problem anyone else has had and can someone point me to the fix? Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bpowell:
Could not find that file on my card and the library still will not update.:confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] 65coupei6:
For all you people who want this new ROM without some of the bloat but want the PTT then just soft reset after you set the time. If you do this it will not install Proxy Manager, Cellular Video, MobiTV, etc..

Then just mount the ext ROM and install the keyboard fix, sms settings, etc... If you use MediaNet then you have to install the settings from a cab found on these forums. The same goes if you want Proxy Manager or anything else that was not installed. I did this and had about 28MB of Program Memory Free, I forgot what the Storage was. Then you can also manually delete Voice Dial also if you don't want it.

After everything was done I installed MS VC and other progs. in the Ext ROM.

This is not a great fix! But, it is something until a cook comes out with something better.

Couldn't disagree more... PTT is crap -- and a waste of a button.

Better option would be to pull it out (the majority of AT&T subscribers don't/won't ever use PTT), and make it available to those who do via CAB.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] IronManDS:
I dig on the new official ROM - it's fast and stable and I haven't had any trouble out of it. My main beef with it is free memory space. After installing the HTCHome and other very minor apps, I have like 16MB free.

Let's hope our chefs leave those extra, unnecessary ingredients out of their pot! (Like, say, PTT :) )
