Actually, I've seen G3 phones show an SPL of 1.05.0000 after doing the Button rom (or during the process. I thought I had bricked a friends Wizard when I saw this. The key is its 4 zeros (.0000) and not .0001 which does indicate a G4). Just finish following the steps (namely, do the CID unlock with lokiwiz then flash a 2.xx rom (you may have to flash it 2 or more times to get both IPL and SPL back to 2.xx, but you HAVE to do that before trying to run a WM6 rom or you WILL have problems).

There is nothing special or different about any of my roms (or any other WM6 roms I've seen) to cause a problem with switching to another rom. You had a bad flash or something, no big deal. Don't blame it on the rom. If you have errors flashing, then verify you are connected with USB directly to the motherboard of the computer (and not through a hub. Some computers USB ports on the front are via a hub so connect to the back). Remove your SD card, reboot your PC, soft reset your phone and try again. If you still have issues, then try putting your phone directly in bootloader mode and reflash directly that way. Use an official rom (T-Mobile 2.26 is the recommended one, but Cingular 2.25 or other official ones can work just fine too), or try the Wizard Love rom.

Good luck.

There is one problem I have been having

I have reported that VoIP doesn't seem to work on this ROM. This is probably not true. It is entirely possible that my problem lies elsewhere preventing my settings from being detected by the VoIP provider.

I noticed immediately on install that I was presented with a choice of local wifi networks. I chose one and saw its signal strength. I was impressed.

I have now noticed that whereas I do seem to be connected, in fact the connection is exceptionally weak. It generally can't connect to the internet at all. Occasionally it does connect and let me surf but never consistently. Never for more than a few minutes at a stretch. Then it sometimes gives a stupid error message "A DHCP server could not be contacted using cached lease information". I can then go to network setup in Wireless LAN set up in settings and see the strength of the connection as well of course as the fact that it thinks I am connected but I cant surf using this connection. No amount of renewing the IP seems to help.

While all this is going on, I can use the scanner and see all the local connections and possibly their relative strength (I say relative because it shows almost all connections at a strength of -90Db. Occasionally it shows one of the really strong local ones such as my own at -80Db). This doesn't seem to be a connection issue, although it often is: It seems to be a keeping connected to the internet issue despite the report that I am connected with a perfectly respectably signal strength.

Somehow this MDA now cant connect to any network consistently. Which may be why the VoIP settings wont register with the provider whether one uses SIP configuration tool, Schep's tool or WM6?

Has anyone else had this problem?

Until the XDA M6 R3 I'd never had the .0001 extension. I knew I had a G3 and famewolf confused me. I'm grateful you took the time to correct him/her. If I'd listened to famewolf I'd be off trying all the G4 methods when it's not the answer.

I'm just very tempted to leave it alone now I'm on TNT and everything's running smoothly. But I'm a pedant and it's just annoying me that things aren't as they should be - I'll run lokiwiz and flash again as you suggest. Thanks for the help.

Got a question I'm hoping an expert can answer about pBar. I read through all the posts at the pBar thread and didn't find it mentioned, so I figure it may be related to the fact that I've got this installed as part of the ROM... not sure though.

I've gone in and changed the time format so that's to my preference, using the region settings. From the "Indicator" tab in pBar I've also enabled the sub number as the Current Date. I've changed the format from dd/MM to MM/dd. Everything's good. But if I soft reset, or even go back into the pBar options it sets the date format back to dd/MM.

I've gone through the region settings on my device and I'm not seeing where I can set it to MM/dd. So I have it set to mm/dd/yy - not even sure if pBar is using that like it does the time format. Could this have to do with a read-only config file somewhere?

Thanks for the thought but I'm into precision. So I searched for "error [302]: update error". Try it out and you'll see the following:

First result:

Not me. Button ROM flashes just fine and the 302 is shown before the flashing of 2.26 begins. This search result is not relevant.

Second result is this thread.

Third result doesn't contain "302".

Fourth result doesn't contain "302".

Fifth result:

Not me. Button ROM flashes just fine and the 302 is shown before the flashing of 2.26 begins. This search result is not relevant.

The most promising sounding result Error (302): Update Error when updating to XM6r2 is all about G4s. So another irrelevant result.

Can you see why I gave up and decided to ask for help?

It would be nice if this worked in Vista. If I try to flash to T-Mobile 2.26 in order to have a CID-unlocked base ROM, the phone gets to the multi-colour bootloader then the utility reports a comms error.

And with your Utility, it just crashes when the phone reboots, with Vista reporting it as a problem and asking you to close it.

Vista is pretty common now. Any workaround to get this update via Vista?

Hey,

To start, this rom really boosted the preformance of my HTC Wizard, so hats off for that.

Personally, i consistantly have a problem with connecting my phone via bluetooth to my PC. It will connect to phones, but it won't connect to my pc, no matter how many times i try.

Anyone having this problem/have a fix?

When XP was released, it took some software developers over a year to get their applications working. Vista is a very young operating system with it's fair share of problems, so one could expect the same issues.

@CJSnet - To fix all your Vista problems is easy. Downgrade to XP or upgrade to Linux :D

Seriously though, what are you expecting from me? I state in the first post there can be issues on Vista and its not due to my rom but Vista itself and the tools provided by Microsoft. I personally won't run Vista as its not ready for primetime IMO. I won't buy a pc with Vista unless they swap the license for XP.

Never tried it. My guess is that WM6 expects this to be 3 digits since Area Code is probably based on US style.

I didn't realize it was turned on by default. I thought it was specific to what TimeZone you choose.

WLS Can Be Overclocked

It might be a ROM-specific issue. I'm running WLS with 274M and even 286M, and it works just fine with my current ROM (one of NTS's).

I suspect mfuzz's ROMs are for some reason a bit more sensitive to certain combinations of application+clock rate since I also observed that phenomenon when trying the first edition of this ROM.

mfazz (if you're reading this), pls don't take this as criticism of your work. I actually loved that ROM - very nice, visually pleasing and reasonably fast. It's just an observation of actual effects (at least, I think they're actual :) ).

Perhaps it will help one day to understand why it's happening?...

somthing wrong?

I will have the standard contactmanager but it will not working

i can click to the contactbutton but nothing happens?

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:M SCONTACTS

Change "String 1" value from "\Windows\PocketCM.exe" to :MSPOUTLOOK contacts.

i click on value 1 and than i wrote :MSPOUTLOOK contacts. after that i save the file but nothing happens when i click on contacts (right schreen below)

so if i change it to \windows\pocketcm.exe it will still working (pocketcm)

sorry for my englisch
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
You didn't put the period after the word contacts did you? If you did, take that off.

Other than that it should work. Doesn't require a soft reset (or it didn't for me when I tested that).

Personally, I don't see why people want to dump PocketCM so fast. When we did beta testing, some of the beta users didn't like it either but after using it a few days, they grew to like it. Personally I can't go back to the regular contact manager as I love the touch screen access for this (great in the car). Yes, its slow to open the first time, but after that its quick (IMO). And for me, the ease of use is faster than trying to use a stylus on the original...

Reporting great success and thanks

I successfully flashed WM6 after downloading your posts. It turned out to be a very painless experience. In case there are other less experienced folks out there who may have some technical expertise but not much in the way of pdas, let this post encourage you to upgrade your phone.

I had a few small things, and I thought I would share them in case I am not the only one who might experience them.

First the low down. I have a T-Mobile MDA, stock phone. Don't hold your breath waiting for them to provide this for you, and my friends who work at the Redmond place tell me they feel it is not going to be released through TM. Even if it is, you can always go there and get it anew.

1, You have to go through the unlock CID process. I did not do this first, and after flashing WM6r3, I still ended up with WM5.

2. The links to steps to unlock the CID were very easy to follow. The difference I had was on downloading and extracting the lokwiz program. The instructions say to put this is the root directory of drive C and run it from that directory. When I did that and executed the program, I the messages said that the phone was unlocked and should reboot. But it didn't. That's when I also noticed four messages that roughly were file not found.

My work around was to extract them to the desktop (XP). Keep the folder names. Then I doubleclicked on the lokwiz.bat file, and this time it worked just fine. Be sure and run it twice as directed.

3. I don't know whether I had to, but I flashed the buttom again, and I don;t know if I had to but I flashed the T-Mobile 2.26 again. Spending an extra 15 to 20 minutes was worth the final result.

I have had to do some fine tuning once it came up. I had the voice command on the WM5 version, so re-adding it was a must for me. Then I had to play a while with the button settings to make them behave as I has them before. I wish they would use better descriptors.....

I had the weirdest wi-fi problem. I have a wireless router not broadcasting the SID and running wpk-psa but choosing those settings in the wireless manager yielded only the network connection was unavailable. Later, I went out, found bunch of other networks, and when I got back, it connected just fine.

I have a lingering problem that I can't sync inside my private network either wireless or usb with exchange 2003. it works great over gprs. Stupid 85010001 error no one seems to know much about. Know it has something to do with ISA server and https, but can't get it to work with the settings i had before.

So let me express my thanks, urge others not to hesitate this update, and hope more good stuff is to come.

IS it me, or does anyone else get a CheckAutoRun.exe error on startup?

And is there a way to fix PocketCM from closing. I click contacts and it loads and closes.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] famewolf:
That would be just you.

Install the latest version of pocketcm (v0.12) using the cab file to phone storage because you have corrupted your version somehow. If that doesn't work UNINSTALL the cab and it should revert your pocketcm to what the rom had it as to start with.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I seem to remember a long time ago (back on Faria's "the real thing" WM6) people would get this error a lot. The issue was either a bad flash or somesuch. Also verify that your IPL and SPL are both 2.xx (and in most cases they should be the same).

Here's an example that indicates a bad flash:

Audio Manager Problem!

Hi mfrazzz,

I have been using the full version of XDA M6r3 since you uploaded it.

I was on my way home yesterday and thought that I would listen to some mp3's using Audio Manager.

It works fine until I deceided to press the power button at the top of my qtek9100, it carried on playing the music (brilliant I thought, save battery power), it played the song through and then stopped.

My qtek was frozzen, had to soft reset, tried it again and the same problem.

Is this meant to happen?

Everything else is working excellent.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] famewolf:
You asked mfrazzz but hopefully won't mind additional input. ;) I would imagine the HTC audio player is actually locking up as soon as you hit power even though it keeps playing...try turning it right back on after 3 seconds or so and see if it makes it back. I use mortplayer..the default screen looks very similar to the audio manager and is meant to be used in the car (big buttons)...I use a vista wmp type skin with it called Qvista..I've posted picks in this thread before..anyway it will auto shutoff the screen to save power and keep playing with no issues automatically. I know that mfrazzz is looking to replace htc audio manager in future versions with mortplayer.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] famewolf:
No touchflo.

There are stickies at the top of the forum with walkthroughs on how to flash a rom..follow them step by step including the CID and SIM unlocking and you should have no issues. Don't skip a step.

Do a good search for your provider and phone... i.e. "Cingular 8125 rom" and you should find links to your provider download site.

The safest thing I can recommend to you is this...there is a technique to backup your current rom to a minisd card using either a modified version of teraterm or the mtty program and a command called "r2sd all". If you have an extra 128 meg minisd laying around the BEST thing you can do is start by backing up your rom using this process (again do a search on "r2sd all" and you should find it..I did)..that way if you mess things up you just pop in the backup minisd and turn the phone on...the phone will auto prompt you if you want to restore from minisd and you press the voice command button to say yes..and it restores the phone..this method is reasonably foolproof.

Yes all this reading and planning ahead is time consuming and the basic instinct is just to jump into the middle of it...but why risk turning your $200-$400 device into a paperweight?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Hey Darren - Well, the quick answer is NO, its not supposed to happen. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this either. I just started up Audio Manager and started it playing an album I have loaded. Then pressed the power button to turn off the screen. Song kept playing. At the end of the song, the next song played, and so on. It played the entire album with no problem for me.

Are you using CPUscalar in battery status? If so, whats your min value? Or if you are only overclocking, what is that set at?

Only other thing I can think of is something else is conflicting with Audio Manager when you turn off your phone.

BTW: As famewolf indicated, I'm looking to drop HTC Audio Manager (seems to be a real bear with the battery) and switching to MortPlayer when I do another rom. You may want to try out MortPlayer (has more features / capabilities, and is easily skinnable).

I'd been using this rom since it was published.

Is stable and fast... no doubt on that...

I'm experiencing 2 "weird" issues and I would like to know either there are "normal" issues or you know how to solve them:

1. When I call to/receive a call from somebody, talk for a while, then I hang up, and then I try to re-dial the last number it simply ignores the "talk" button (hardware and software). Even if I go to "call history" and pick the number, it simply doesn't redial it.

2. Since a couple of weeks, I noticed the "Comm Manager" has on every button a "crapy" font (big and not smooth)... maybe I did/installed something that damaged the font used by the comm manager... but how/where can I solve it?

Thanks in advance and keep on doing excellent ROMs...

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
To be honest, I've never used the default dialer that is in this rom, so if thats what you are using, someone else will have to comment on this. When I flash my rom, I immediately put the ReTOUCHED dialer on. I love its functionality (but know others don't so haven't built it into my roms (yet)). I can say that I've never had that issue with the ReTOUCHED dialer. I do what you describe all the time.

Have you installed WeatherPanel? If you have and are using the default layout, its known to screw up the fonts on this CommManager (I need to see if I can fix it so that that doesn't happen anymore, just haven't looked into it). If you are running WeatherPanel, then switch to a different Layout. I use the Chameleon one and really like it. There are lots of others available on PPCgeeks and the WeatherPanel forum (there are links to these in the second post of this thread).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Let me know what A2DP settings you use. I'm always looking for variations and trying to find ones that will work in most cases. The ones I put into the rom were what worked for my A2DP Spider headphones.

As for changing the volume, I haven't seen that. I can soft reset my phone and its always set to the mid level. Understand though that I tweaked the registry so the mid level is probably as loud as what it was on other roms at full volume. If you want to lower this then here's the setting:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN]
"EAC_GAIN_EMBEDDED"=hex:77

Change the 77 to 6D to go back to default (if I remember the value correctly)

I've had similar experiences the last three times I've flashed. I couldn't get the ROM to flash by any other means than shell tool... but don't ly on the 15 minutes that the tool reports. in my experience it's closer to 30 min. In one instance it still hadn't finished after an hour so I ended the program. however when I hard reset I had the ROM updated - I guess ShellTool didn't know it was finished.
