[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] tmknight:
I use the ExtRom to install all the applications I had previously installed on my SD. You now have an additional 8mb of memory onthe device so why not use it to get the best performance from your apps? Overall device performance still much snappier than with whatever ATT stuff was being installed from there (I deleted everything that was in there). No issues with auto-config of phone network settings. Everything working as expected.

For folks still having trouble installing the ROM, please search for my earlier posts for info on how to format SD to fat32.

Again for folks still having problems installing the ROM, remember when reading threads in forums that the info has most likely already been provided in previous posts, don't be afraid to use the search feature. It's proper etiquette as well.

Cheers

[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] PDADoc:
The ROM update installed fine for me, but what I'm having trouble with are two things:

One, I applied the two .cab files to see and supposedly edit the extended ROM, and it shows up as a separate drive in the explorer tree with Resco Explorer, but any changes I make to it (i.e., deleting the partition folder there) don't seem to stick. After a soft reset the folder comes right back. I've tried everything, including using Total Commander, but I can't delete anything out of the folder.

Two, seeing as I can't delete anything out of it, I want to at least restore it to its hidden state, though I'd much prefer to be able to edit it and delete the AT&T stuff inside.

Can anyone help me on this? I've been searching and searching but I can't find anything that can help me through this problem.

Any help is much appreciated.

1) instal WM6

2)Hard Reset

3) instal the first CAB

4)Soft Reset

5)install Second CAB

6)Soft Reset

7)Delete all file from Ext_Rom Partition

8)Soft reste

9)Check if files are Deleted

10) HARD RESET
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] PDADoc:
That did the trick! Thanks so much for your help! :)

My only guess is that something that I had installed was preventing the tools from working properly. Now I've gotten rid of all that AT&T crap and have the extra space, and my GPRS settings were automatically customized for me.

It'll be a royal pain, but I don't want to take the chance of restoring a backup I made so I'm off to reinstall everything from scratch; going to be a looong night! :D

Folks really must try the Australian ROM, very snappy and installs rather clean by default. I still mounted the EXTrom and deleted contents to gain extra app space. Only a few hours old, but so far so good. Go to forum root and look for the thread about it to get more info. Need to be quick as ATT is watching and the links to rom are being deleted very quickly.

[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] steve1215:
Yes, it really does work.

One more post for the "so far so good" file. Following the instructions posted here I just upgraded my unlockeded UK Voda 750 to WM6 without a hitch. Where's that somke coming from? ;-)

For anyone needing to format their SD card FAT32 (an apparent requirement before attempting upgrade) Tucows has a free-to-try program called Flash Format (http://www.tucows.com/preview/164064) which worked a treat.

Good luck all.

[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] nre999:
This was a painless flawless upgrade that makes my Treo 750 feel like I hoped it would when I got it last winter. It is almost as if Palm had WM6 in mind when they designed it. This ROM plus the audio patch and those nagging little annoyances from WM5 are gone (weird sound issues, alarms going off days after they were supposed to).

The best part - the cheap generic Patriot 2GB MiniSD card I got now is recognized even when the phone goes to sleep. No more having to put it in and out when I want to use it.

THAT alone is worth the price of admission!

question did you restore a backup after the update? or it didn't want to sync just after your update?
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] trublu01:
Update Successful!

However; I first setup hotmail, then exchange. The contacts that synced are the hotmail ones. How can I change this to show the Exchange one's. All options (contacts, mail, etc) are checked. How do I not sync my hotmail contacts? Also my exchange inbox only downloads 2 out of 7 messages, as well as the folders I have created, it just downloads a few of the messages.

****Ahh, it actually merged them.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] unkabuzz:
On my old IPaq 3955 PDA running Windows CE 3.0.----- I could just push one button (like the PTT on treo 750) and hold it while I record my voice. The recording is going into the "notes" folder but it's activating the record button at the same time. It would do this even if the unit was off. I found this to be very handy while driving for recording ideas or reminders or getting that phone number from an advertisement on your local radio station. On my Treo 750 (WM5), I tried to re-assigned the button, however the button only gets me to the "notes" program, I still have to select the record and stop buttons with the stylus.

OK, so my question is this; Is this function already available on the new WM6 ROM, or is it something one of you "experts" could create??? (I am definately not qualified).

Sorry for the long winded post and thanks to everybody for all the great info on this forum.

Roaming...

I just upgraded my Treo 750 (Cingular Branded / Unlocked / Using the old AT&T Blue sim / Old Charter Unlimited Minute Plan) ..

Everything works perfectly EXCEPT all incoming calls are using the roaming ringtone and when I send and receiving email I get a warning message telling me that I am roaming.

It appears that my phone thinks it is roaming when it is not.

I've read posts about others having similar problems, but with no solution.

I've gone through all the posts, then the registry and could not find a solution on how to fix this problem. I need to somehow tell the phone that it is not roaming or turn off/remove the roaming options all together.

This was not an issue with WM5 at all.

Other than that, I love wm6, but this is a huge issue that is causing great headaches!

Please help find a solution!

There's been a few questions asked, and in the general excitment no one has been able to / has had the time to answer them. I'm wondering some of these same things :), so:

1) does this update affect the unlocked status of a device?

2) does anyone know if installing this update, invalidates the ability to install alternate updates later?

3) how non-beta is this rom? Does anyone know if AT&T is minutes, or weeks away from releasing? It would be nice to know the betaness, if possible, to make a more informed decision. After all, it would suck to install this, then find out that (as asked at 2) we can't reflash with the non-beta.. and are maybe stuck with a bug...

None the less, thanks for the rom!

Oh, by the way. Has anyone noticed the following:

4) how's the bluetooth now, with car kits / etc?

5) does the hack for disabling (via the registry) the AT&T proxy still work / still required?

@john_99

You place the image on the SD to flash the device. After the flash procedure, this will be your new ROM. So it's imposible to get WM5 after you remove the SD card.

this update doesn't affect the unlocked status of a device.
