Rogers Rom saves the day

I would just like to add that this ROM is amazing. A worthwhile speed increase on my Tmobile Dash over the Tmobile WM6 ROM and no weird bootup looping bug.

It also boots and turns off much faster.

Regarding MMS & Internet settings for Tmobile, you will just need to enter them into your phone after installing the Rogers ROM.

They are right here on Tmobile's Web site, there is no cab file needed, although I guess someone could make one to work.

http://tmobileuspublic.wdsglobal.co...ufacturerId=9&mobileNumber=&incomingServerId=

Tmobile actually has this cool "Configure Your Device" Web site, where you choose your phone model, and then what you want to configure (MMS, Internet, Email, etc) and it gives you all their settings:

http://tmobileuspublic.wdsglobal.com/index.html >> in this case you would choose HTC S621, which is of course the actual model number of the Dash

Kind regards,

Matt

For some unknown reason, the T-Mobile MMS Configuration will not work with the Rogers newly just released wm6 ROM..........!
[HTC Excalibur] jsp_m:
Installed Rogers ROM, looks nice. Only one problem - when I install regular HTC Green homescreen I use (I know, I know) there is no SMS/E-mail line between calendar and profiles.. anyone?
[HTC Excalibur] chrissystar:
I am haviing the same problem too! I cant get MMS to work here. I have the s621 and am using the Tmobile network.

If anyone knows how to configure MMS, please help!
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
jsp_m, were you able to get the T-Mobile MMS Configuration to work.......? OH! You don't like red batman cave matrix twirl graphics on the bootup screen?(lol)
[HTC Excalibur] jsp_m:
I gave up on MMS, I never use it, and it clogs my messaging list on my way scrolling to POP account ;)

Bootscreen is terrible (and the sound, oh; but at least there's no vibration any more) - but this ROM is worth the hassle - fast, stable, bugs fixed ("E" icon is not showing connected status after disconnecting, more free memory, Office in the pack etc.)
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Yeah, even the windows media player turning side ways in the full screen mode has been fixed.
[HTC Excalibur] jsp_m:
oh, and here's the repaired HTC Green homescreed I made.. it seemd they changed the plugin clsid
[HTC Excalibur] akurit:
Thats very sweet, someone else who appreciates this layout. You have made my life so much more simple.
[HTC Excalibur] jsp_m:
thanx, and if you noticed I cleaned the file from the clutter (other languages, unnecessary specs etc) and made it half the size... I'm sure it comes in handy when loading the screen ;)
[HTC Excalibur] hoolahoous:
can you point out the files which I can remove ?

i loaded it (originally TMo wm6 rom) and applied the registry settings to get rid of rogers startup/shutdown screens. best things which i love

1) voice tags are back !!! crappy voice command never worked for me.

2) Speed.. did I mention speed .. !! it is ultra fast..

3) bluetooth profile works as wm5 !! so i can voice dial over blue tooth

4) installed voip cabs from eluth and it works as it used to. so no loss of functionality.

5) free memory is about 21 MB where as it used to be max 18 mb with tmobile ROM..

cons:

1) homescreen is crappy

2) i could quickly switch to vibrate profile at work and back by pressing and holding '#' key. not anymore. may be some smart people at xda can post a work around.

overall a worthy upgrade..
[HTC Excalibur] chrissystar:
Hi everyone,

I just upgraded to WM6 and when I ran Windows Live Messenger, it uploaded all my messenger contacts to my phone's address book! I deleted all of them, only to find that when I logged onto MSN from my computer that they were gone!

Anyone know how we can run Messenger on the Dash without having our contacts uploaded to our phone?
[HTC Excalibur] jsp_m:
I'm not native English speaker, so I've must have mis-expressed myself - I've cleaned the homescreen xml file from the clutter that was inside

In every homescreen you will find many lines for languages you will not use, hence you can delete all those and reduce homescreen file size by two thirds!

As to your question on safe file deletion, there are files you can remove; that is all the stationary and multimedia cr*p, you can delete London bridges and all the melodies from the \Windows folder..and all the other files using the trials and errors method :D

However, the firs step is to disable security so you can manipulate files in the system folders. I found a link in this thread that lead me to application unlock registry solution, and I also did the security prompts removal and I can manipulate all the files on device as I like (I'm not sure what of these two enabled this, probably the app unlock)

good luck!

let us know if you can find other deletable files!

Ps. how to kill the startup and shutdown and replace with static images (and without sound too)?
[HTC Excalibur] hoolahoous:
you can find the registry entries here

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160147

here it tells you how to disable the image/sound. but you can change the entry to point to your image. i would assume you need to keep the resolution correct otherwise it will not load.
[HTC Excalibur] hoolahoous:
One more thing I found

Alpha dialling is not working. So that makes it two downsides

1) "#" doesn't toggle the profile between Normal and Vibrate

2) Alpha dialling is not working.
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Thanks guys. I have my work cut out for me today. First, I'm re replacing the LCD from my girlfriend's Dash. The one I got her 2 weeks ago was dimmer than the one I replaced on my phone. The replacement should be here this afternoon.

Once this is done, I'm upgrading both TMO Dashes to the Rogers Rom.

So let me get this straight...if the phone isn't App unlocked...do that now...then run the rom utility like the TMO WM6 one right?

After the install, run the mms cab and then reload all my apps regs. tweaks etc? Is that the correct order of steps?

I want to make this as painless as possible! Thanks in advance

--Mike
[HTC Excalibur] hoolahoous:
you need to run the USPL CID bypass tool first before you flash Roger ROM. If you don't Roger ROM will refuse to flash Tmobile device.
[HTC Excalibur] JAmerican:
Yea I just noticed the alpha-dialing. I also think the profiles switch on reset to Normal. My phone went off in class. This rom is incredibly fast though. I have like 2MB free and its still speedy. Makes me love my Dash all over again. So I really don't care lol. Just get the Dialpad.cab. This will give you an image that looks like this...

without the T-Mobile symbol. I just like the T-Mobile symbol. LOL. So I added it.

JAmerican
[HTC Excalibur] ayoraider07:
Alpha dialing successfully changed with Dialpad.cab, Now I can't find Short_IE.lnk in windows folder, I need to remap the t-zones key with this file, but can't find it.

"*** Remap the pink t-Zones Key on the Dash

Using TotalCommander or WordPad, Edit \Windows\Short_IE.lnk and change to 36#"\windows\iexplore.exe (to launch Pocket Internet Explorer) or to

19#\Windows\IA_Task_Manager.exe?:TaskManagerApp for Task Manager.

Soft-Reset."

any ideas?
[HTC Excalibur] ayoraider07:
To remap t-zones, I had to create short_ie.lnk in notepad containing the code:

19#\Windows\IA_Task_Manager.exe?:TaskManagerApp, then put this .lnk into \windows

A Lot Of Video Files On My Dash, Closing Them Via The Task Manager Fast And Easy

As you know, I run a lot of video files on my Dash and also I have several different media players on my Dash, now I can close each player fast and easy without hunting for the Task Manager App, its on my keypad now for a one finger quick action maneuver, thanks to ayoraider07. Works like a charm!

Hidden menu for MMS

I found a hidden menu for the MMS config. Go to:

Start->Messaging

and highlight 3.MMS, press the right button -> Settings -> right button again -> MMSC Settings

Here you go, *Rogers MMS* setting. Change it to T-mobile MMSC settings and I guess you should be done? I personally don't use MMS, so I haven't verify this yet.

====

Edit: Nevermind, it seems that it is the same as Tmo's guide? I don't use MMS anyways...hehe
[HTC Excalibur] mofoliar:
i am using Roger's WM6/rom now, and i want to install Dialpad cab. When i do, i get "Installation was unsuccessful, the program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions".. what does that mean? but i have installed total commander & Bluetooth audio.. so i am conufused!
[HTC Excalibur] jumran:
It means you have to application unlock the phone. Search here on how to do that as it has been posted on this and other threads many times
[HTC Excalibur] mofoliar:
Thats what i thought! but when i try to use surrealnetworkapp unlock too, i get that same message i posted..
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racergo:
did you run the special allow certificate for Rogers? That was the first thing I installed after the ROM so I am not aware of what errors it gives
[HTC Excalibur] mofoliar:
good lookin out! that worked.. then i installed app unlocked, didnt get any error messages.. i guess u learn something new with different roms.. thanks again!
[HTC Excalibur] JAmerican:
OMG I love Rogers Wireless for making this ROM. They saved my Dash. I also replaced the black boot screen with HTC from the HTC WWE ROM. I love ROM splicing :).

JAmerican
[HTC Excalibur] hoolahoous:
why do you need boot screen ? just disable that screen using registry entries. That adds few more seconds to boot up time for no reason.

btw my Dash seems to be eating up more battery now.
[HTC Excalibur] JAmerican:
No I meant the splash screen. You know the one that said T-Mobile on top with all those dots below it then the WM screen came up. In the Rogers ROM, that T-Mobile screen is just black. I didn't like that because it made it seem as if the device didn't respond to my turning it on so I placed a HTC Splash screen instead.

JAmerican
[HTC Excalibur] adewey234:
The Rogers internet connection for me is really slow, and doesnt work half of the time. I set up the connection all correct and everything, i have the VPN plan so i set it up with the internet3.voicestream.com which works perfectly, but the ROM wasnt identifying it properly or something. Now im on the HTC German ROM which is fast as hell.
[HTC Excalibur] gadgetshrink:
Anyone else notice the change in MMS where it is now split out from text messaging? I personally like that feature but don't like how when you go to create an MMS, and want to add a new photo or video, you don't immediately have the little icon of the camera or video camera. Rather you have to select an option from the right softkey menu to add a new video or pic.

Also, has anyone tried to add additional messaging alerts to this ROM? I was unable to get them to be found by the setting -> sound area without editing the registry. For example, I like two of the messaging sound in the T-Mobile ROM (new_email.wav) and moved them over to the windows folder, but the files did not populate into the drop down.

I'm with you JAmerican, I've found a new love for the Dash again. Adding in a new homescreen from Prosper's web-site and the more stable SmartToolKit app and it's like a whole new phone!
[HTC Excalibur] mofoliar:
i am sure it has been discussed but just wanted to know how to or if possible you can disable outlook mail when tapping jogger button.. that damn thing is buggin?
[HTC Excalibur] surfing10:
Yes you can. Take from the Dash Faq:

JOGGR and Keyboard

Enable the JOGGR: This will disable it as a volume control, and enable it as the default JOGGR functions (back, scroll, email).
Use http://1800message.com/default.aspx JogBar T-Mobile Dash - JogBar utility (SetJogBar).
- or -

Edit: HKCU\ControlPanel\JogBar\Settings\SwitchToAudioFunc to 0

Remap the JOGGR Keys
Bottom JOGGR "Button"
HKCU\ControlPanel\JogBar\Settings\BottomKeyApplicationName (replace with app of your choice)
and
HK_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\JobBar\Settings\BottomKeyAppParameter (leave empty)
Top JOGGR "Button"
HK_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\JobBar\Settings\TopKeyApplicationName (ditto)
and
HK_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\JobBar\Settings\TopKeyAppParameter (ditto)
[HTC Excalibur] mofoliar:
Thanks for the info... much appreciated, thanks for an annoying fix...
[HTC Excalibur] Prax:
Hey JAmerican Do you think you can post those two startup and shut down gif files. I really like the new rom, its much faster and seems to work alot better.
[HTC Excalibur] JAmerican:
If you have the ROM then its in ROM. Also why would you want those startup images? They increase the boot time.

The boot image I was talking about was this....

The Rogers ROM boots with a black screen which makes it look like startup is taking forever so I needed to replace it with the HTC logo. This is the first image you see when you boot the phone. Then you see the WM logo.

finally, it's working the way it's suppose to..:D !

s621 Call History is out of whack

I have an S621 from Suncom in the US. I upgraded using the cid removal method and installed the Rogers S621 WM6 upgrade.

I didn't take notice of this beforehand, but the Call History (any or all of the lists) aren't or can't be sorted chronologically. It's just a mish mash of numbers I may or may not have called recently, or not :)

On every phone I've owned, hitting the call button first will bring up the last numbers you dialed in some sort of order.

Anyone else notice this? Or am I in need of a head smack on my desk?

I also noticed the backwards date display, so maybe it's a canadian thing about not giving a hoot who they called last ;)
[HTC Excalibur] MountainDrew:
I'm running the Rogers ROM and the green call button does bring up a call history list in chronological order. The incoming and outgoing calls are mixed together, but the order is still correct (most recent at the top).

You can change the date display in Settings/Regional Settings.
