I want to re-ask this question. I can't see that it was answered yet.

Often times when I use the center button on the 5-way to open an email message the messaging application minimizes and I'm left at the today screen.

I do not have D-pad scroll navigation enabled.

The account is imap.

This occurred on my previous cooked MM 5 rom, cooked 5 Home and now on my cooked ultra clean 5.2.

Any suggestions?

Is there a fix?

In my case, it was the connector that went bad on the Kaiser itself...One of our engineeri actually used his swiss army knife and straightened the connectors and it worked!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] juju-35:
Alex,

thanks. Looking forward to a fix for that in a new ROM version.

Re-flahing has become much less of an issue now that I have auto-install and UC. Not everything is working perfectly but I am getting there....I may bother you and others for some more questions on this once I investigate a little more.

I also just discovered I cannot have Skype running on this ROM. It was the case with DCS 1.5, adn I think it was fixed in 1.7. Skype says there is no Network even though I am connected to MediaNet, so I cannot even log-in...

Thanks

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] juju-35:
Thanks so much for the fasst turn around. What a service!

Maybe a cab to fix Skype next :)

Juju

PS: Sorry about confusion on large menu vs title bar. Anyway, large titel bar is nice but has the annoying feature that you cannot dissable it for a particualr app (llike the phone, where it is annoying!), similar to what can be doen with Touchflo. Maybe some genius out there can figure a wrapper that would disable it selctively based on the active window

Contacts CAB

Alex,

Tried the latest ROM last night - 162 Cube ROM - with the Vodafone radio 1.64.08.21. All seemed fine. Installed my own extra items and customised the skins/home screen etc. Then, for no reason that I could put my finger on I lost all sound - including phone calls.

I reinstalled the radio. Still nothing. I did a hard reset and it wouldn't. I had to take the battery out, replace it, and then do a hard reset before it worked.

Following the hard reset, still nothing. Reinstalled the radio again. Still nothing.

So, flashed your v5.WM61.HTC.302.Home.ROM.beta2 and then the same radio again and all is well.

It was very strange how it worked at first and then once it stopped there seemed to be nothing I could do to fix it with the new ROM.

The application I really loved on the new ROM was the contacts. Could you please tell me the name of it and point me in the direction of a CAB file for it if possible.

I have checked the WIKI and Cooking area but cannot find any reference to the Contacts Application.

Thank you.

Colin

Just found it. http://pocketcm.com/index.php doesn't seem as quick as it did on the other ROM though.

Alex, quick update - it wasn't the ROM that was causing my connectivity problems, it was my router. Replaced the Linksys and all is well with the world now.

BTW, as for the soft key, I would like to see a Comm Manager key as i seem to go there a lot.

Thanks again. 2nd donation on the way!! Keep up the great work!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
The AT&T 1.62 ROM only works with 1.27.14.09 radio. Not sure why it worked temporarily, but it shouldn't have worked at all :D

Glad to see you found PocketCM and it's known that WM6.1 can be slower than WM6.0. :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
Glad to hear that you're up and running with Wifi on your phone!

As for the soft key, long_send key is mapped to comm manager, so having that on the soft key would be somewhat redundant :D Any other ideas? (anyone, please chime in?)

Thanks for the donation, its appreciated!

Cube Functionality and Battery Life

Alex

THANKS (!!!!!!!) for all your hard work. Do you have another job there in Cary? You seem to spend a lot of time on this stuff!!

1) I was frustrated trying to get the favorites tab to "appear" and found myself experimenting with the cube - I stink at getting it to consistently work!! Since then I have found the additional tab fix cab that you created - Thanks!

Can anyone out there point me in the right direction to learn how to use the cube consistently on this Alex's great Cube ROM ??

2) Secondly, this is the first full day using the Cube Rom - it's 5 PM and I have 10% battery left (I've played alot but I did have to work all morning, so it was mostly afternoon usage) - I typically had 40% or so battery left with the stock HTC ROM and maybe 30% with some of the 6.1 ROM's I tried at this point in the day.

Anyone have any comments regarding battery life with Alex's latest Cube Rom ?

PS - Alex thanks again - I sent donation last PM. I think I've mentioned before but I'm a Chapel Hill grad and my brother lives in Cary!

sim manager

I am a newbie here. I just installed your v52.ATT.162.Cube.ROM. WOW major improvement on the AT&T ROM. I do have one issue though. For some reason my sim contacts are not showing up and I cannot find my sim contact manager tool.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] juju-35:
I guess ou can always go to "remove Programs' in the settings section and remove it manually.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] juju-35:
Do you mean you did not get the cube to work at all, or it did not work sometimes?

If it is the first, you have to go in the FTtouchlfo.config in settings -> System, and enable the Cube in the General tab. You can then setup the gestures,... that will make it work to your liking.

If it the second, you can try to increase the sensitivity in Kaiser Tweak and in the general tab, but it does take some training before getting the cube to spin at every gesture.

Hope this helps.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] juju-35:
Alex,

sorry. Should have followed your basic advice to use google....

I found out to remove proxy for Medianet, and now Skype is working!

So to everyone: DO use Google to search when you have a problem, as the senior members would yell to beginners like me :)

I must also say that I used your comm-> proxy manager -> remove proxy cab you have, but that did not work. Not sure what is the intent of this cab, but basically it did not remove the proxy, so I went into the conenction settings and removed it manually.

I will report other minor bugs I found later.

non connecting wifi

hi all.

_Alex_ I am adicted to your roms and naughtily updated to yet another of yours this morning when I knew full well time was not on my side today. I opted for the lite rom which is mega fast and finished to perfection via the addons i spent not even an hour putting on.

I have but one tiny question that has got me stummed. I simply cannot connect to my wifi network in the house. This has only happened once before when I used one of your rom previously. I believe it was a previous version 4? of the miltimedia rom. The fix was never found and I gave up and went back to a stock rom.

this time I WANT this to work as I love the rom totally. I have searched in as many nooks and crannies as I can think off and been sent half way around the metaphorical electronic online world but no luck.

I am pretty up to date on working out my own solutions from reverse engineering any problems that pop up but this is one that I need help on.

Simply put no connection to my router or to any of the computers in this house can be achieved and I wondered if there is something I can do to get this to work. There are several types of fixes which I have found including one for the blue angel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ha ha ha but obviously that didn't work. I have spent three days working this out and will wait for any help I can get/

Kindest regards

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] anonova:
Quick questions. If I do not live in a 3G area, is it best to turn off 3G in the comm manager? It's on by default, so I do not know if it affects battery life or something.

Also, I think the new comm manager is great. It's quite a bit quicker than to open than the last. Is it intentional that it doesn't have a landscape mode?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] cp_kirkley:
I installed this rom for a friend, He likes everything but pocketCM as well. However, removing the program is not that cut and dry when the program is cooked in. Its not even in the remove programs list.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] whydanwhy:
What he said. It's just that PocketCM goes at a crawls pace compared to the rest of the ROM. And looking up contacts isn't as efficent and quick as the default WM6 way.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jcrompton:
If you go to the PocketCM website I recall that at one point they had manual install instructions - so just do the reverse after you find those instructions. You'll just need to delete a few files!

And there will be one or two registry changes to get your default contacts back as default and to change the soft key .....

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
Yeah, same here. If you have a screen guard installed (like I do), it will interfere even more with your ability to launch the cube.

I personally hate the cube, but made a version with it due to user demand :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
3G does affect battery life, but if you can't get it, it can't affect it :D So, either way, it shouldn't...

The new comm manager does have a landscape mode, hence the scroll bar :rolleyes:

Seriously though, the on/off text would need to move to the the right of the buttons as would the text below the icon. I'm not quite sure that would be as visually pleasing. I'll consider it...

Hope this helps!

I believe the fix as suggested in phlunkie's post would have worked fine for you (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1972805&postcount=634).

The other cabs you mention adds/removes the Cingular hidden proxy which cannot be removed via connection settings. This Cingular hidden proxy is for AT&T folks to access cingular video and the cingular medianet home page.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the help _Alex_

I have fixed it by putting your rom straight over the top again. Perfect!

PS: my post should have said 3 hours searching and not 3 days. I am really pleased with this rom (Lite version). I wanted a basic version so I could find my own cabs.

I know that you include the ptt ability in your kitchen utilities yet I have fallen in love with the way you make them. Is there any way that you can cook up a version with ptt included? Currently I am using the "lite" yet i don't see anyone else besides myself that would want to see this program on such a stripped rom.

Alex,

I didn't see it listed so not sure if it was one of your fixes or not. Earlier I mentioned a possible bug/annoyance in the UltraClean ROM caused by TAutoinstall. I was wondering if the file has been removed from the startup folder so it doesn't continue to run after a reset.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Biggins:
I searched but could not find info regarding a problem I am having with TCPMP. It seems that when I have the keyboard slid out and fire up a video using the included video sites, TCPMP opens and plays the video in portrait mode and will not flip to landscape. This is not just the video I'm talking about... the whole player does it (the controls are set up like it's slid closed even though I have the keyboard out). Then, after sliding and resliding, it will fix, but upon closing the player the gui underneath is now portrait! This is also fixable by sliding and resliding but is annoying and very frustrating.

I am using the cube ROM and have been racking my brain trying to figure out if it's a setting in TCPMP i'm missing and for the life of me I can't fix it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise this ROM is great and have been enjoying all the other features.

I have the Home ROM and I too have had and issue very similar. Most of the time it has happened during the night while charging - the device is locked up and the Today screen video is distorted with squiggly lines etc. However, this morning it happened about an hour after I started my day and the device had been removed from the charger.

Me thinks it has to do with Batti -- I was going to remove it from my startup group but haven't had time to do it yet. I've had this ROM 3 or 4 days and it has happened probably 3 times so it is more than a mnor annoyance but as I said I didn't really thnk ROM specific.

Any other ideas??

Edited: I found this quote from another Batti user (I had not used this app very much prior to using Alex's ROM): sbaker25 (02-08-2007) - v2.1

I really liked this application, but I had to remove it because of a serious problem on my Cingular 8125. Any time I charge while it's running, once I reach 100% battery, the device hangs and I have to soft-reset. The problem is 100% reproducible for me. I contacted the developer about the problem, but didn't get a response.

I'll disable Batti and get back with my results.

Batti Issues

Like the post in the other forum - I realize this is the wrong place - but I thought I'd briefly share.

SPB Software has released MobileShell 2.0 - It allows for more customization, has a battery indicator (so you can disable Batti, which does so far appear to be my issue with feeze ups), and really seems to be pretty cool. I think I am going back to it instead of HTC Home and Batti (seems to me that Mobile Shell makes up for those two add-ins).

Only problem - you gotta pay for it! Atleast you can trial it at thier website.
