these are why i am afraid of SDHC support

ASUS released horrible patches to support SDHC with WM6 (i hope they are confined to mini-SD SDHC patched)

Drakey83, I can also confirm that the latest version of WML 10.6.0026.1400 (at least I think that is the latest) doesn't work with this ROM. Comes up with the error - Windows Live was unable to establish an Internet connection.... :confused:

theoretically there IS a way to get file transfer through wifi, there is a ftp server working for wm5, named vxftpsrv or somewhat, check the site of vxutil, and there is a homebrew ftp client working for psp, i used both of them before, but never used them together, go have a try

well, sounds tricky, but i think it will work

Works great...

.... But no DUN ruins it for me, Need to be able to connect to my Blackberry to access the internet so I'll be sticking with the A17 ROM until I can figure out a way to get it to work, or DUN is put back in.

I tried the widicomm stack and that doesn't help either - Didnt work with the A17 ROM either though.

I can connect no problem to BB... but the WM6 and Widicomm stack says I dont have the required service to use DUN... even tho WM5 and the stock BT stack works no problem..

if you only want language support, like read chinese, it's simple, just replace the wince.nls file with another one which has chinese code page, add font, change registry to enable font link, that's all, there are lots of thread around this, try search "wince.nls"

if you want the interface translate into your language, oh, boy, there are hell lots of work to do.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TSBirkoff:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Caveman6:
I believe it must be fat32.

Can't you format to fat32 in the Axim?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Caveman6:
Nope. dowloaded fine
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] just_jeepin:

Nevermind. I formated the card in Mac format, then put it in the PPC and it formatted it.

SDHC working?

Anyone got SDHC cards to work? at what capacity and class?

how about A2DP? any improvements?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Caveman6:
I immediately put in my 8GB SDHC along with the 8GB CF I already had. Both seem to be working fine at full capacity.

I think the certificate issue is because WM6 handles certificates differently than WM5. Not sure what to do about it yet, though.

I have the following bugs:

1) I can connect with Wi-Fi WPA/TKIP with Odyssey Client but the connection is really really unstable.

2) I can't connect to any of the shared folders on my computer with File Explorer.

And how in the world do you setup an Hotmail email account? I can't figure it out. Or is that part of the Windows Live that doesn't work?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] julianbl:
The problem is not the certificate... is how the PDA takes the host name.

It says that the cert is valid but the name is incorrect. May be is something we can touch on the registry or a file that can be replaced. But none of the https sites works without the warning.

I think that messenger could not work for the same reason. Login is made trough https.

So WPA-PSK TKIP doesn't work properly? If so, I might just hold off on upgrading right now.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] carrot34:
solving the sync issue

trying to figure out how to solve the "security certificate on the server is not valid" error. I'm thinking there must be a way to tell the system to accept the certificate even though it thinks it's not valid, but I can't figure it out. There's this whole section on MSDN about Windows Mobile certificates and security settings:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb416355.aspx

but I can't find anything to solve this. Can anyone else figure out a work around?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] carrot34:
certificate problem

I also tried making my own certificate for my hosting site using the instructions here -- https://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2006/01/28/making_a_root_cert_cab_file.aspx -- and using SslChainSaver to make the xml file which I then 'makecab'bed over to my Axim. But the Axim tells me that installation of the certificate was unsuccessful.

I'm thinking this might be a promising direction to work in, but I'm not clever enough or experienced enough to figure out how to do it... Anyone else having more success solving this?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Caveman6:
Hi,

While I appreciate all the work that Football has put into WM6, I have to say I like the feel of A17 better, and that I have had no difficulty with Exchange Email there. It would be nice to have access to HTML email under WM6, and I love SDHC access, but with the current certificate problem for Exchange email, and the lack of driver support for certain devices, I need to go back to A17.

I hope that Football will keep working on both ROMs, as SDHC support for A17 would be nice, or solving the certificate issue for WM6 would be nice. But in that case there may still be issues for certain drivers.

Football, thank you again for all your work. But for now I need to stay with A17. (Hope you can bring SDHC support to that soon!!)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rocksolid:
Winmobile classic 6 installation on x51V

I downloaded the latest ROM of WM6 from Football, (i wonder what his real name is, so that we can thank him more personally) followed the instructions verbatim and following things happened.

1. After the rom was installed there way a message asking to make hard reset (pressing power button + reset) .

2. After doing the hard reset nothing happened for 10 minutes. (I thought of 'bricks'. I did the hard reset 3 times after that, waiting for something to happen but nothing happened.

3. After about 15-20 minutes I thought of going back to A17 at least so save the brick aka x51v.

4. Just before going back, I decided to hard reset for the last time - this time holding the power button and reset down for about 20 seconds and released them.

5. This time I saw a winmobile screen coming on for a few seconds then it went dead again.

6. Since the brick was reviving I did a hard reset once again this time the green screen went full white for a long time and nothing happened.

7. One more hard reset and the Winmobile 6 classic booted.

The lesson is once the ROM installation goes smoothly work patiently for some time and it will boot.

Now about running of WM6- it is beautiful, fast and so far error free. It caught my Linksys wireless LAN instantaneously and I could surf on net. Windows mobile device center in Vista (Vista does not take activesync) also did the hand shake smoothly and I could trasfer files to and fro , from pc to CF and SD cards. Both the cards read correctly. Now greatest thing of all is someone I did not even know did this development free of charge for Axim users when Dell ditched us. I express my gratitude to Football and request him to introduce himself to us. Thank you.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Caveman6:
The program Card Export II, which allows you to treat the CF/SD cards as logical drives when the Axim is connected to your PC, also doesn't work under WM6. I use this program along with software called ViceVersa to sync specific folders between the Axim and my PC, thus allowing me to carry work with me on my Axim.

I don't know if this is a result of WM6 or of SDHC support.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hunterd:
To be able to connect with file explorer, I had to set 'My network card connects to:' to 'Work'.

Then I have to use the Netbios name and not the IP address to connect to the share.

In WM5, I could use the IP address directly.

All in all, great job Football!

Couple questions...

First, thank you so much for WM6. This is possibly the biggest gift the Axim crowd has been given, ever.

1. Do I need Vista to install WM6? Do I need Vista to synch?

2. Is there a way to fat32 format and install all needed files to an SD card using my Axim/XP, or must I go buy an SD card reader?

3. Is there a way to clone an SD card? I've got a million apps and games installed to my card, and would love to restore everything back to the card after using it to install WM6.

Thanks again Football. :)

Football, I'm sure you've heard it all so I won't go into the whole thanks stuff.

I find it interesting that even aximsite is talking about you're various roms although they have a policy against it. He He.

Remember when I thank Football, in reality I thank everyone involved in the development of the Roms. I hope nobody feels left out.

Bugs

First of all, a big THANKS to Football for creating this firmware.

I've also tried the test-version and many bugs have been fixed. It amazes me that all my programs work OK. :D

Unfortunately this version also have some bugs:

- The "server security is not valid" issue when using for example SSL with Exchange Server activesync. I think something is wrong in the firmware. I also found this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=294201&highlight=0x80072f06

Also opening a valid https (secure) website (gmail.com) is resulting in an error message "The name on the certificate is not valid or does not match the name of the site" so it looks like the website-name is not correctly recognized. I agree with minus_273 that there's something really wrong in recognizing the name on the certificate with the real url of the website and this is probably also the reason why Windows Live Messenger/MSN doesn't work. If you need to use SSL for Activesync in a corporate environment you can't use this firmware :(

Unfortunately this bug isn't acknowledged on the Russian forum so I'm not counting on a fast fix.

UPDATE :D -------------------------------------------------

09-09: SSL problem is fixed in WM6 BETA3 Preview !!!

UPDATE :D -------------------------------------------------

- I'm not sure this is a bug but I would like to use the wireless-button to switch on/off wireless only but I noticed it only switches the last interface that was used (bluetooth or wireless). So if i used bluetooth as last, the wireless button will switch bluetooth and not the wireless interface.

- I read something about infrared on the Russian forum.

Maybe someone can ask Football to look at these bugs.

Keep up the good work!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] julianbl:
You can't! Don't try to flash a x51v firm on a x51, the flash process might work but you will end up with a brick.

x51 and x51v have some difference not only on the screen, but the video processor, also ram and cpu speed.

dialup problem

nl1rsd and julianbl, you've both managed to get dialup to work? I'm having no luck making a bluetooth connection with my phone (Motorola V710). I go to

"add new device" in Bluetooth and find my phone, but after I type the passcode on both devices, the phone says "PIN verified and saved" while the Axim says "Your device did not connect with Motorola. The connection failed or the passcode is incorrect." I've tried this again and again after restarting both devices. My Axim x30 (running Windows Mobile 2003) connects fine, but the Axim x51v with the new WM6 doesn't.

Any ideas? nl1rsd and julianbl, did you do anything different to connect successfully?

I should add that the new WM6 paired fine with my keyboard, so it's not a bluetooth problem per se. But the keyboard didn't require a passkey, and the problem here seems to be that the PDA thinks the passkey is wrong when it's not.

[I won't add this to the bug list yet, since it seems like it may just be my problem...]
