Try a Hard Reset

Accessories -> Clear Storage

It's good idea to do a hard reset every time you flash to a different ROM. Especially if you experience any "wierdness".

If you've overclocked it using OMAP. Remove the overclock for now.

Hi i just got a s621 and i wanted to upgrade to wm 6.1, i've read through the the forums and wiki and i started to upgrade. I cid unlocked using SDA as well as SurrealNetworks, but everytime i run the 080408 app when i get to the JumpSPL part i hit any key to continue to install JumpSPL, i get a beep sound, and then several seconds later i get an error

HELP

I hope this is not out of date to post a reply. I just found this website to replace my current default T-Mobile Dash under T-Mobile Carrier. I love your works yet there is a problem with keys. Under IE Explorer url address bar, I am having this trouble using the keys which is not accord what I pressed. I did follow every possible comments-posted out there and did installed TegiceT9USEnglish.CAB - this one has an error when I tried installed from on my phone - the error said it is not compatible with the version I upgraded the ROM of yours. And tried the other, which you have offered a multi-language and successfully installed but not functioning well.

Isn't there any way you could help me with this problem??

Please contact me in my personal email purekorean@hotmail.com if you can...

Thank you very much for your time and far most amazing work of creating this ROM... I LOVEEEE IT, yet a little frustrating with some errors and looking forward to full resolution and satisfy usage of your ROM
[HTC Excalibur] dewey1973:
This error message during installation happens with many programs. It doesn't mean the install failed or that the application doesn't work. It is just a warning that when the program was written, it was not written to be compatible with the new OS.

If you can go into more detail about what keys you are pressing and what you are getting in response, I'm sure someone here can help you.
[HTC Excalibur] bay-eee.coder:
Well, for example, in IE Explorer, I pressed W which ended up "." and then I pressed "." which ended up "." To me, it seems that the key functions with numerals causing these errors of different keys than it actual key letters... I don't know if I am explaining clear or right here. I hope you could at least understand what I mean by that...

EMERGENCY

I tried reinstalled the ROM and through the progress of installation, accidentally got the USB loosen. Then I tried get plug-in again, now am stuck in "no-way" of re-installing this ROM. I even took the battery out and turn the phone on, the first screen shows HTC then to the green screen Windows Mobile, from there it's "freeze" or stand by... Though I waited half-hour and still nothing... WHAT CAN I DO to FIX THIS?? I hope I didn't completely "broken" my phone :'(

Never mind - found a way to fixed

Sorry for an urgent attention... Here is a solution to THESE who also having similar problem I have encounter. I googled-up and found this posted http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=388530

According to it, I followed -

1) Take battery out and Place battery back in

2) Before turning on the Power, hold SYM key (aka Camera Symbol)

3) When you see 3-Colors (aka Tri-colors) Bootloader mode, plug USB and wait til you see at the bottom as 4th color (white) saying USB

4) Then install with an official carrier ROM

5) Bam... there on you can start all over re-installation of this Kavenna ROM

I have installed 6.1 ROM but the keyboard is acting weird. I can type alphabets which are not assigned to any numbers. But the keys with numbers, I cant type the Alphabets. Its giving the number rather than the alphabet.

In short, I cant type W, E, R, S, D, F, X, C and V.

[HTC Excalibur] brownrink:
keypad question...

I have installed Kavana 6.1 and it's great. I have also updated the tegic English for the keypad. My question is for the comma/semicolon and period/colon keys. All other keys work fine when holding down the letter to get the symbol. For some reason, I am unable to get the semicolon or colon to work when holding down the comma or period keys on my dash. Has there been a fix to it? thanks!

Extend KEY Encryption Length for WPA/WPA2

Good Day,

I was wondering if there is a way to extend the key length if I am using WPA2 for wireless. I have a 35 character key and I believe the current setup only allows 31.

Please no posts to reduce my own key for WPA2. I'm sure there is a setting in the registry and I just want to know where. I could not find anything while searching on my own.

worked for me

I installed this without any problems and am very happy, big improvement.

The only thing that threw me was this in Kavana's first post in this thread:

Perform this prior to installing ROM:

Error 270 Fix

When you click on the link, you go to a thread with a link to 2 files:	SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip and Excalibur USPL- CID BYPASS.zip. I could not figure out what to do with the USPL- CID BYPASS file. Finally, after an hour of searching, I found out that it is not used to install the Kavana ROM, just the SDA_ApplicationUnlock is needed.

I would suggest editing Kavana's top post to read:

Prior to installing this ROM, go here:

Error 270 Fix

download SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip, then unzip and run SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe from your PC while your phone is connected to the PC

HTC 5800

Hey,

I was reading around and finally across this...

although by looking at the pictures this looks to be a landscape based rom. I have an Htc 5800 (htc S720)...

so my newbie question is ... would this work on that? if not ... is there something like this that would?

Thank you to whomever answers the question.

You should never flash a ROM not specifically for your device as you will end up with a brick....

Please check the section of HTC that corresponds to your device and look @ the ROM section.

Great Rom

I followed the instruction at the top and had no problems. I didn't have to run the software twice however. This ROM looks great and its faster than Windows 6.0 Rogers version (which is what I had on before). I also had to install the eT9 because the T9 that comes installed witht he rom was not treating my keyboard correctly. All of the other keys worked but the number keys were acting as T9 on a normal keypad.

Just follow the instructions and you shoud be fine with this ROM.

Hi, thank you for this upgrade.

I would however appreciate to get any additional explanations on the way to customise foreign language keyboards.

first of all please let me apologise an, for asking again and again: there are quite a lot of threads upon the subject, just ending into the Nirwanah.

Above mentioned file "eT9 Full" appeared to fix the weird keyboard settings after the upgrade to 6.1. and that is already a huge improvement.

I now have a half usable QWERTY keyboard, better than nothing.

Regarding the internationalisation, I am still stuck...

Above mentioned file brings a lot of dll's for foreign languages in

\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME\KdbDlls

called eT9.dis.9Keys.[language].kbd.dll.

That really looks like if these DLLs were intended for numeric keyboards only.

Are those DLLs intended for the Excalibur?

Following guide appeared to be promising:

http://www.modaco.com/content/smart...obile-smartphone-internationalization-issues/

Currently twaeking the Kexmaps in

\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME\KeyboardLayouDlls

were not successful:

I tried and it just did... nothing, like if the tutorial were possibly describing the wrong version.

Is it the right place to do?

Currently my Registry is set as follows:

\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\InputModuleDlls= eT9DisInput.dll

Is that one correct?

Last but not least question, where is the rightp lace to enter the keyboard language?

The locales settings do not appear to be the right place and I could not find any other T9 language setting place...

Thank you for your help and understanding.

Regards

Finally full CAPS support on Kavana based roms...

Please note: the plain Kavana is for a 9 Key based smartphones. The keymapping on an excalibur is mostly wrong.

If you install above mentionned .cab, you will get a good lower case keymapping but you will loose the CAPS key.

If you need for example a french, german, spanish keyboard, you might install it anyway, retrievt the keyboard mapping file (more later) and deinstall it immediately.

Install instead the .cab file given here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=397723

It comes from a previous version of WM, you will get a version warning, just ignore it.

Reboot, you will get a full keyboard support including CAPS.

If you need a localized keyboard e.g. french, german, spanish keyboard and if you don't have the corresponding keyboard files, install the eT9 Full from Kavana, rename the keyboard files (e.g eT9.Excalibur.0407.kmap.txt for French) from programm files\eT9 to something else.

Desinstall eT9_Full, install Tegic eT9 US English.CAB

go to programm files\eT9, rename the keyboard file eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt to something else, rename the previously renamed french file to

eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt.

Reboot

you are done!

Maybe one of the good kitchen chefs here would like to make another CAB out of Tegic eT9 US English.CAB + the other regional mappings out of eT9_full ?

Anyhow i am happy now!

PSW.QQpass.NK?

It's weird that talk of trojans should come up like this... during a routine scan my AVG 8.5 Full just detected trojan "PSW.QQpass.NK" in the .exe file for Kavana's rom (and this is without me being paranoid about it - I've been using the 6.1 rom on my dash for months and its been great). But I'm pretty sure the AVG isn't wrong either - it has never returned a false positive for me, and even if it did I would know how to spot one.

The limited information out there suggests that this particular trojan targets system passwords and IP addresses. Is there anybody who can explain this for me? :confused: I hate to be distrusting of such an awesome rom, but I feel like we should get to the bottom of this if multiple people are noticing it.

Hi everybody,

I have a T-Mobile Dash Black for about 2 weeks, yesterday I decided to flash it with Kavana ROM.

I'm very happy with the upgrade, the most important to me was the battery life... WOW!! I didn't connect the the charger since yesterday morning and the battery is 60%. This is very good because with the T-Mobile ROM the battery life was less than a day.

The only issue was with the keyboard layout like others in this forum. I installed the eT9 Full.cab. But I fix the problem 99% by modifying the file located in:

/program files/eT9/eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt

The only key that not working is TAB, I don't know why, but is not a problem for me.

I attached the modified file: eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap.txt, just copy and replace the same file in the phone.

If any body fix the problem with the TAB key, write me, please.

Thanks a lot to Kavana for this upgrade and to all of you for your comments. :)
[HTC Excalibur] enviouz:
Im new around here and to all this smartphone and windows mobile stuff so please excuse me if this is a rather noobish question.

I recently was given an htc s621. I dont really know what all this dash business is about. I assume that is what t-mobile calls they're phones. I think the one i have is an actual htc (not rebranded by a certain carrier). It doesnt have an carrier name anywhere on it. Only has the htc logo engraved right below the screen and just above the "4way control thingy".

I was just wondering if i could safely use this rom. I really dont wanna "brick" my phone as i just got it.

It has windows mobile 5 currently.

Here is some info i found while exploring the phone (just in case its important)

start-->settings-->system information

start-->settings-->about

Start-->expert-->task manager-->menu-->system info

Tri color bootloader screen

Some info from the box (not gonna add it all):

It says "www.htc.com" with the word "pro" below it.

Htc smart mobility s621.

microsoft windows mobile 5.0 for smartphone

memory:

rom: 128mb

ram: 64mb ddr

As i said it says nothing about any mobile carrier. I could have been bought through "iwireless" though. Or it could even be a totally "sim unlocked" i currently use it with iwireless megatalk plan (pay in advance).

Im just wondering if i can use this rom as ive said without bricking my phone or if they are just for tmobile/dash phones. My phone only says htc on it (back cover) and then the logo below the screen.

Also if i can use this rom is there a way i can backup my current one and then reinstall it if i dont like this one?

Thankx in advance.

P.s my appoligies if i shouldve posted this in another place.

Cheers :)
[HTC Excalibur] s1l3nt:
