Voice Dialer Issue with Bluetooth

VP3G or anyone else. When I was running WM5 I would push the button on the headset of my Motorola H500 to make a call it went to the Voice Dialer and I would say a name and it dialed. With 3.62 when I push my headset button now it displays the phone screen. It doesn’t give me the beep for me to state the name and dial since it goes to the phone display. If I go to voice dialer on the phone and push the button it works. Is there away to change the H500 or edit the program to select Voice Dialer instead of phone?

I'm on the road alot and voice dialer saves me from touching the phone while driving.

Thanks.

Connection indicator in Today screen

Hi,

I just reflashed v3.62 and everything is working great. I'm missing something from v3.60 though.

Does anyone know what I have to install to get this? The jpeg is a bit small. Click on it to get a better look. I cropped it out of another jpeg on this message forum.

Thanks all!

IE History getting deleted

VP3G, thanks for your good work on this ROM! It's a keeper. Glad to see you still supporting us when the Hermes is past its prime, so to speak.

One thing, this is the first time I have experienced PIE history being wiped out after every soft reset or power off/on. Very annoying.

I suspect it's just me, since I don't see anyone else mentioning it. But it continues happening even after HR and changing ROMs and reinstalling. Very weird.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Ben

That's it! I checked the Add Ons and it's not there. I looked at v3.6 again and it's available in the Lite and Ultra Lite version.

Anyone know where I can get this Plugin? I find very useful to know what's turned with a quick glance without having to go to the Comm Manager.

You can also just barely slide your keyboard open so you can see the first row of keys, hit the function key, then the OK key. That is a shortcut for turning wifi on/off.

What is the difference in this rom and from you one that you built 3.62 from?

WM6 for 8525 Officially Released today.

Dump your cache and cookies to see the updated HTC page with WM6 download for 8525.

Now the question we all were wondering... has anything been changed?

http://download.america.htc.com/RUU...502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe

I'm going to bet that vp3G's version will be better!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] asfoor:
I just loaded the ATT/Cingular new ROM....and playing with it as we speak.... faster than any ROM out there that I had used in the past. I am just loading up my favorite progs and will report soon. Internet is fast. Comm Mgr is the old one but you can download your favorite. I am loading 1-Calc full version, HTC Home, iGO Nav, etc..

Have not seen any problems yet.... No freezing of even heating up when streaming audio. Fantastic so far... I am looking forward to VP3G's modification to it. I am sure when he is done with it it will be F A N T A S T I C.....

Chefs code included in AT&T's WM6 final?

I wonder how many ideas and tweeks were included in AT&T's final ROM taken from these forums? Will vp3G and the other chefs find some of their code in the AT&T WM6 final? :eek:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kpin_it_real:
Vp, That is sound advice. I saw an 8gb sdhc card and was also wondering if that would work? Or is 4 gb the limit? Thanks again...Keep up the good work. Also heard about the release of ATT's WM6. Reluctant to try it but who know.

Another high capasity SD card question....

Is the ability to see past 2gig on a memory card a function of WM6, or is it something that you added to your ROM?

Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] singhnx:
It's a function of WM6 and the hardware of the device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pharoahwen:
Thanks...

So my 8525 can see up to 4 gig, or can it see more? I've seen some 6 and 8 gig cards, and since I use my phone as my mp3 player (motorola S9 BT stereo headphones), the more room I can get, the better...

Thanks again!

Data disconnet on Comm Mgr?

I would be interested in this version of the Comm. Mgr. with a data disconnect button instead of Microsoft Direct push. I never am able to use that button. Do you need an exchange server to get Direct Push? If not, how do I employ?

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] singhnx:
You don't need to employ your very own exchange server, however, I do think that an exchange server is necessary for the Microsoft implementation of direct push. ExpressMail and others also offer it, but not using the icon nor the underlying software that you're referring to.

If you want, mail2web.com offers a free service with exchange hosting with push e-mail. I'm sure that there are others also.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] al8525wu:
Thanks! I'm not sure what a .kp file is though. WM6 can't install it and I'm not sure what to use to uncompress it.

Anyone know?

I've downloaded the files including the add-ons

Questions

Do i need to follow mrvanx tutorial for updating still?

I am on vista

I have already updated my phone to the Official ATT/HTC rom release today

So do i need to change my Active Sync drivers to do vp3G's update?

Or can i just run the RUUwrapper and install the ROM

One last question - might be stupid but

how do I install the add-on's?

do i just copy each cab to my phone and run it?

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] idj1975:
if you already did the update you should be good to run the ruuwrapper.

the add-ons need to be run individually
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gyrene2083:
Let me ask you this, did you already us Mr. Vanx tutorial and do the Hard SPL? If you did, just to make it easier for yourself, just put the the things that I have in my signature, in yours. It gives everyone an idea of what you already have, and they can answer you accordingly.

If you did the hardspl, you should just be able to use the wrapper to install the ROM, and the cabs, should be loaded onto your mem-card and run from there.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Xyberz:
Will the PTT cab work with only this version of WM6 or can it work with others?

I want to restore PTT on my AT&T 8525. I'm currently running Black Majik's version at the moment.

I've gone through the search and this is the only one that has any link to a PTT cab.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
It's specific to this ROM (but not this version of it, to be completely accurate in my response).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lorennason:
idj1975 - yes I already updated the phone with the HTC release so i think you are right and i can just use the RUUwrapper and upgrade again

gyrene2083 - the only thing i have done is skimmed mrvanx tutorial and nothing else. i'm gonna read it again and check my spl version before i try the update because i do remember part of the instructions that said if i have a certain version i don't need to update because it is updated

thanks guys
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pharoahwen:
Question for vp3G...

Will you be redoing the released ATT ROM? And is there any potential fix to not being able to remove the comm icon on the today screen?

Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
Yes. Already have it flashed and testing on my phone, in fact. :)

Haven't tried hiding it on the latest build, but I'd guess doing so will have the same result. It's not a problem to hide it provided you don't mind a double reset once in awhile. Some folks never have a problem with it hidden.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pharoahwen:
U'r Da Man

I appreciate your work! Your's is the first non standard ROM I've installed, and it's Great! I installed HardSPL to get the updated radio (1.54.7), but hadn't tried a different OS. I GREATLY appreciate having an OS that doesn't have the ATT bloatware, none of which I ever use. Is the one you're testing just like the one in this thread?

If so, one other question. Can you give a little more detail about the utilities and apps you built in versus the ones that are in the addin pack?

Is "Soft Key" part of the OS or something you added?

Difference between HTC task manager 2 and x button 1.51? If there's a thread somewhere on this stuff, just point me to it. I know you're a busy man :-).

Thanks again, donation forthcoming :-)

Vp3G - You are doing a great job and i can't wait for your next release but if its not too much hassle, can you include SetAcoustic Param in your rom?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GA400:
Thanks

Just wanted to drop a quick note in this thread to thank vp3G for this excellent ROM. I have a refurb 8525 that was ok, but not awesome. With this rom, it is a lot more fun to use, faster, has more software that is more useful, and the battery life difference is astonishing.

I actually went to this rom to try to fix my activesync issues interfering with the official ATT rom I was trying to load. I like the vp3G rom so well, I can't see a compelling reason to load the ATT rom anymore.

Thanks! :)

Edit: noticed the link for the tip jar ;-) threw a little something in there for ya
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
Are you talking about Cyberon VSD? If so, that will remain as an add-on.

There's already a SetAcousticParam in the base ROM and although there's another floating around XDA that supposedly makes the volume louder, I'd be very leery of cooking it in. I can't assume it would work for "the masses".
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walletless:
I Second that live search & msn messenger should not be included, rather be downloadable as a cab file. If possible, I would rather add the version available at http://mobile.search.live.com/client/download/wm/LiveSearch.cab ... its a great software for US residents... lets you search gas prices near you, restaurants, attractions, directions, etc.. also integrates with a bluetooth gps receiver, if you have one. If you think it is not good enough for the "masses", thats fine - I can install it separately :)

On another note, my WM5 that I got from AT&T 8525 (stock) had an application where I can record my voice for a contact, and call the contact by speaking his/her name. For example, I had recorded my spouse's name with "call my wife", so when I start the application (which I had reassigned using PTTHack) and say "Call my wife" it calls my wife!... does anyone know where I can find that app? In the mean time I have downloaded another app (voice command) which is available through my employer, but it is speaker-independent and has a tough time understanding me most of the time..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walletless:
Can we also remove HTCCustom and PIMBackup...?

Also, how can I install just the lite version, not the FULL version? I do not use any of the software that you include in the full version... so just curious...

One more request... can you package all the files together in your final release:

RUUWrapper.exe

ROMUpgrade.exe

*.ncb

Thanks!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] naveen:
i have never used the cyberon software...when i did the 3.62 upgrade i would try and add a voice tag but the option was gone. do i need to install this cab for active voice tags, or does it install itself?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] deach01:
See post #2 in this thread.

Cyberon VSD isn't installed automagicaly on the vp3G V3.62 rom because not everyone wants it.

From your desciption, you definatly have used Cyberon VSD, you just didn't realise that's what it was.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Toleraen:
Yes, there's a newer version of IEM on the 3.6x roms. It runs slower, but it renders more of the webpage.

Do this at your own risk, but if you look for shamanix's 'fix' (look in the pandora thread), just extract all the dll, mui, and exe files (not the folders...and DON'T extract wininet files) into the /windows/ folder. I don't know if all of the files are needed, but that worked for me.
