You should give maniac's Automatic Keylock 3.87 a try. You get a big clock, date, battery status, signal strength, temperature etc, etc...
[HTC Tornado] burkay:
you can also install autokeylock which provides automatic key lock functionality as well as a very nice and customizable screensaver during key lock.
[HTC Tornado] burkay:
oops, didn't see that. sorry.

Hello!

I've just switched from WM5 to WM6 with your ROM, thank you!!

But I have a big problem: I can only type numbers... I don't know how to type letters... Could you help me?

Thanks in advance!! :)
[HTC Tornado] Pop5k:
Does the trick (using just the screensaver function). Thanks guys! :)
[HTC Tornado] Squuiid:
Is BETA 2 actually coming? Am curious, starting to worry as we've not heard from the author.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Phil said that he will be busy with some stuff now, so just use andot PEE at the moment, it is already quite stable, except for A2DP
[HTC Tornado] revanmj:
could someone post for me srceenshots of home screen, first and second "site" of menu start and version info in WM6 Beta by Phil? I need it for my article about WM6 ROMs for Tornado but I'm using PEE V6 and I don't want to Hard Reset my device again, I would be grateful if screenshots will be in "fresh install" WM6 state (original colour, wallpaper and home screen)
[HTC Tornado] benny856694:
why my tornado's format binfs has different format

when i type 'format binfs', it prompts' format binfs: [os hex size]'. then what kind of format shall i use to format my phone?
[HTC Tornado] gr8:
i not quite sure... i think i had a similar problem.

you have to enter the commands exactly (capital und normal letters) as typed in the example, then it should work. i'm not sure about this, but give it a try...
[HTC Tornado] imfloflo:
instal the french t9 :)
[HTC Tornado] Pulstar4:
You need to type "format BINFS" without the quotes. Notice the letter f in "format" is NOT capital. This is where I got confused because the guide uses a capital F but it's wrong.
[HTC Tornado] paraklas:
About the GSM fix.

I didn't run it when I upgraded from WM5 to WM6 Alpha and had some gprs issues.

Now I that I will upgrade from WM6Alpha to WM6Beta, will I experience any problems due to the GSMfix not installed? What can I do about it? Thanks
[HTC Tornado] Terabyte:
Hello

I can't regulate the Speaker volume during a telephone call.

I can see the volume bar on the Display when I press the button on the side, but the volume won't change.

Has anyone the same problem??
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
@paraklas

Just run the GSM update now

@terabyte

works perfectly for me
[HTC Tornado] xmarkom:
i have that problem, too

this ROM sux!
[HTC Tornado] paraklas:
then roll back to WM5 :mad:
[HTC Tornado] xmarkom:
how to roll back

expain!!
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Run a WM5 RUU, ill shoot you if you dont know how to do that , lol
[HTC Tornado] xmarkom:
i hear somewhere when i rolling back to wm5 i need to know what was my exaclty version of previous wm5.

i have some swisscom model (gray) of tornado.

???
[HTC Tornado] paraklas:
I have been using the beta rom for a few hours and regretably I'm going back to alpha version. For some reason, the phone is a bit slower (yes i've done the registry edits etc) and it takes 5 whole seconds to hear the other party when answering a call, while they can hear me. also dialing takes 5-6 seconds as well, dunno what is slowing down the phone.
[HTC Tornado] xmarkom:
this is because HTC camera, i think

uninstall it and it will be faster
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Did you do the neccesary registry changes as instructed in the first post ?
[HTC Tornado] Stink:
Fourth post, is it the latest version of sewing or not?
[HTC Tornado] Lovetz:
Stink, yes it is. It is the latest version of Phil's rom in 4-th post.
[HTC Tornado] paraklas:
yup!

I have done 3 fresh installs of the beta version, and it still lags. Additional applications didn't affect the speed. I'm using the phone with a kingston 512mb minisd.

so i reverted back to alpha version, done the gsmfix, changed the bootscreen to the beta one, and installed couple of the applications. it is much faster now with 23mb free ram on cold boot.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Try Andot's PEE
[HTC Tornado] Stink:
You wrote that there is Russian localization in your sewing, and actually only English and German.

Why Russian localization is not
[HTC Tornado] Stink:
Thank you for an answer, but there is not Russian localization in this sewing, it is although written that is!

Спасибо за ответ, но в этой прошивке нет русской локализации, хотя написано что есть!
[HTC Tornado] Gomer Pyle:
i think that means all mentioned languages exist as extra cab (in Extras.zip)
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Haha, the warranty will end in a couple of few months time. And I just repaired the speaker, joystick, keypad. So, everything should work fine.

Anyway, isn't it better if we put a description to each file in the Extras folder, so people know what it does
[HTC Tornado] melgurth:
Hmm after a while I noticed that after reboot I have about 14MB of ram. Wierd - should be 31.31MB as Phil wrote.

[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:

hope to see the new release soon. thank you for your excellent work and keep it up!
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
@gr8 - Yeah was good, spent 10 days in the middle of nowhere, nice to get away from technology now and again :P

Won't start cooking until next week tho, so a release in around 2/3 weeks? want to get back into it slowly :P The ROM will be a complete revamp of the BETA with lots of nice new stuff from Vox ROM, also still looking at making the old album software from WM2003SE work on it...

Phil
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Hmm, what kind of nice stuff? Can those be put as cab files ?

Btw, can I know what do you use to package cab files ?

I was planning to update all the OEM apps with the ones from the Vox ROM, so nothing you can really cab up, mostly stuff that has to be cooked in...

i-mate SP5

hey guys, sorry i know you hate people who dont search thoroughly before posting, but i just dont have that kind of time right now. i have an i-mate SP5 and im trying to upgrade it to the WM6 beta for the tornado. well, i did what it told me to to do with the teratermpro files, and it gave me an error when trying to type in "format BINFS". it kept saying "not allow operation!". so what do i do to get past this to finish upgrading? i've already flashed it with the wm6 gsm upgrade. and it wont let me flash it with the tornado one yet.
[HTC Tornado] nav1:
Did you superCID your phone? And is the phone in bootloader?
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
If you get "not allow operation!" then you aren't superCID, or, if you are definately superCID its because you didnt type "info 2"

Phil
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
My step by step pictorial guide is already pinned up, dont understand how you can miss it, refer to my siggy
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Reading the whole thread not only prevents bricking ones phone but there are tips and tricks that can be missed out. If someone want to flash the ROM the short cut way then they should be prepared to accept this fact.

I am merciless...
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
If they follow my guide properly, I don't see how they can brick their phone, I gave alot of explanations and its very detailed
[HTC Tornado] Jebidiah:
ahh but unless im just completely retarded, superCID unlocked means that the phone is unlocked? correct? well it is unlocked, now if it means something else, please let me know, then i can follow those steps.
[HTC Tornado] imthewa1rus:
You are not completely retarded, you just haven't read enough :-)

As stated many times, sim-unlocked and cid-unlocked are very different.

Sim allows you to use other carrier sim-cards.

Cid allows you to flash other carrier roms.

karhoe's guide explains how to do this perfectly.

http://karhoe.byethost33.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21#step4

Good luck!

and dont forget to read way ahead before trying anything.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Software unlock means to allow you to install software which are not digitally signed
[HTC Tornado] bjoeg:
Woot great.

Just installed the BETA and thanks for developement on it.

However, the rom came with English and German T9, I want local Danish T9.

According Menneisyys' Tutorial this was no problem. There even where cab files with it listed, so I would not have to go through registry and all that, but it does not work. And I can see the registry edits are made correctly, but somehow ignored.

I am still only able to select English and German T9, funny thing is if you select 123 input, the icon next to battery shows asian (chinese/japanese) characters.

Looking in Windows I cannot even find eT9.Dis.9Keys.German.Kbd.dll or similar.

Has T9 setup changed in this Beta?
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
Install xT9 and then the xT9 language pack...

Is the HTC Camera V4 Build 23355 different from the one in Andots rom?
[HTC Tornado] pauliusba:
to phill

I just want to ask one thing. leave the default images viewing application! because no other app can send photos to Windows Live Spaces! and so comes the question - do you know what you are doing? i just want to have stock Windows Mobile 6 with no fancy tweaks and replacements and none me its FEATURES PERMANENTLY REMOVED. stock is balanced well enough. just dont ruine it...too much..

oh. and there ir an annoying bug. when i reject a call, it counts it as a missed call. this ir very annoying.
[HTC Tornado] jevenstr:
MMS trouble

I have no other problems with this beta version other than i can`t send/receive mms. What programs/settings do i need?
[HTC Tornado] silfox2000:
In that case you can wait for WM6 update from your phone manifacturer. No one else has a duty to update your phone firmware.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
It is not an annoying bug, you are the annoying one, please cook your own ROM now, dont ask us how to do it, cause we dont entertain annoying post.

I can send photos perfectly using WLM, its under the Send menu, not only photos, I can send files as well

I dont have the miss call bug, please install Andot's PEE, again, dont ask us where is it, search for it and remmember to RTFM !
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
@pauliusba - 3 things I would like to say to you:

Number 1: Yes, I do know what I'm doing, if I remove something, there is normally a good reason for it, most of the time its because the feature in question is utterly useless, like windows update, similar to the download app in wm5, did anybody ever use that?

Number 2: The 'missed call bug' is default behaviour... On every other wm phone I've owned if I reject the call it adds it to my missed calls list.

And Number 3: If you want to be so picky, then don't use my ROM, go cook your own!

I dont have a duty to upgrade your phone firmware either! :p

Phil
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Remmember that Phil is doing this out of his own good will, he took all the risk, you might not know, Microsoft can sue him for copyright infringement, yet what did he get in return? Just some humble donations from those who could afford. I'm sorry I can't, still a minor over here, lol

Let me give you a good suggestion, go find your carrier or manufacturer, tell him you paid for your phone and you deserved Windows Mobile 6, make them build an upgrade for you, then we will remmember your name as long as we still have our device with us
[HTC Tornado] iron1:
wow,thats so rude to ask someone whom you dont provide thier living!
[HTC Tornado] JEC007:
HELP

Just down loaded everything and have it installed. However cannot get device to connect to the internet. I have a T-Mobile SDA USA. Is there something that I missed other than that seems to be working. Thanks in advance...
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
You need to input the correct operator settings for GPRS etc, also you need to flash WM6GSMUPDATE.zip to your phone.

Phil
[HTC Tornado] JEC007:
Could you please explain how to do this?? Thanks
[HTC Tornado] Pop5k:
Hey, if you find the time, please put the clock back into the unlock screen.

I've tried working around this by using the screensaver clock from Maniac's auto keylock but it's not of much use since that prog seems to crash quite often, resulting in the watch being unavailable again.

Also, switching from TCPMP 0.81 to 0.72RC1 was counterproductive as 0.72 won't let the screen fully time out under WM6. Meaning, as long as it's playing music, the screen and backlight stay on (if Auto Keylock's screensaver is running, that one comes up but the screen's still on, without that it just stays in a backlit homescreen). Issue doesn't exist with CorePlayer or TCPMP 0.81 yet I couldn't get it fixed with 0.72. So I'd say stick with 0.81 for the extras.

Cheers!
[HTC Tornado] bipinsen:
Excellent work - Much better than WM5 updates

Thanks to karhoe for the excellent guide. Worked perfectly! I have a T-Mobile USA SDA that is now on the PEE ROM. I love the snazzy bootup screen. There's a bunch of cool extras in the "extras." Now I'm wondering what's going to be in beta 2.

Great job. No complaints... So far! :)
[HTC Tornado] bipinsen:
Uh oh... BT DUN not working (XP tethering)

So the big thing I loved with my WM5 Bluetooth was that I was able to use the DUN in XP to use the SDA as a modem. Now in the PEE ROM, I was able to pair the SDA back to the computer, but now when I want to dial out from the XP computer, it keeps giving me: "Error 678: The remote computer did not respond..." (XP dialup error). So now I'm stumped. What do I do? I installed WM6_BT_DUN.cab file, but I don't see anywhere where I can use it.

HELP!!!! This feature is very important to me!!! :confused:

Thanks!!
[HTC Tornado] bipinsen:
Oh geez. Why does stuff have to be changed around... So now there's a new thing in WM6 - Internet Connection Sharing. Oh lord. But, the good news is that it works. Though before I would have to just connect the BT phone, and hit the dialer in XP. Now I have to start ICS on the SDA first. Still.. back to what I needed.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
It would be better if the phone can act as USB WiFi dongle
[HTC Tornado] Fahtrim:
2 things for the beta that I would like to see.

1. Auto time synchronization, I believe Phil already stated he will add this.

2. Have it so the joystick doesn't light up the screen when the keys are locked.
[HTC Tornado] paraklas:
Is the multipress timeout bug fixed? Even if set to 1/2 second, it still waits 1 second. basically any setting other than 1 second doesn't seem to work.

Also, the display backlight timeout seems to be a bit buggy sometimes. even if set to highest value, it will turn off in 5 seconds. Happens sometimes though, a restart will fix this.

When going from Flight mode to phone mode, the message "SIM not recognized" or invalid SIM appears. anybody experienced that?
[HTC Tornado] DSF:
paraklas it seems that with orange uk aku 2.0 keyboard driver the multipress works. andot's PEE rom has this driver included.

for more details, see:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=321665

and to fix the backlight timeout issue:
[HTC Tornado] Pop5k:
Second the motion for the setting that prevents the screen/backlight turning on on joystick press while phone's locked. I was wondering why despite the automated under-/overclocking my phone's battery runs dry quicker than before and I guess that's why since I'm usualy carrying my phone in my trouser pocket.

Also, I've come across a more or less serious input bug:

Sometimes the phone stops accepting inputs from the "1" and "3" key. Happened a few times when I was trying to write a new task/note but yesterday it also happened as I was supposed to put my activation code in. Was forced to reboot the phone in order to be able to insert the code.

Other than that, I've had a few, random reboots. I think those (always?) happened when I was exiting some programs. E.g. it happened when I exited the Comm Manager or CorePlayer. Sometimes though, the phone was lying on the desk and all of a sudden did a reboot. Funny thing is that on such occasions I wouldn't always get asked to put the unlock code in to re-activate the radio. Phone just went off and came back on with radio running.
[HTC Tornado] Piechcio:
where is the download link? :confused:

What about reading all the pages? The download link is on first page.
