[HTC Excalibur] The Rotagilla:
I just wanted to say thanks to this forum. I bought a Dash that was supposedly unlocked but when I inserted my SIM card, the phone would work for about an hour before generating the "Invalid or missing SIM card" error. After reading several threads I opted to go with Kavana's WM6.1 version. It was quick, easy and painless. At first I had keyboard mapping issues but a little searching resolved that issue. The phone now works great with no problems with any of the features (so far). To anyone thinking about doing the upgrade, you can feel confident in doing so. Take your time, follow the steps and everything will work out. If you run into a problem the answers are there, you just need to look for them.

Thanks again!

[HTC Excalibur] MystiqueASAP:
Thanks Kavana

I am a newbie and I found and installed this WM6.1 just fine last night. GREAT INSTRUCTIONS!!! :) Works perfectly; I just can't get enough of navigating around on my Dash. I'm like a kid with a new toy. :p

To fellow newbies: Start reading from page 1 on this thread and read through to the end. Read the instructions FIRST, download the files, and then perform the upgrade. Also, do not attempt this when irritated or tired. Fatigue will cause you to miss a step and/or input the incorrect settings (yes, this will require user input; it is not going to do everything for you). You will need to configure MMS, Internet, T-Mobile Web (t-zones), and etc; these instructions are include on this thread, so again, start from page 1. So far, MyFaves isn't compatible with WM6.1. Although, I have seen a few temporary fixes for this, it is not necessary; you're calls are still going to be free to/from those on your MyFaves list and you can always manage your MyFaves on T-Mobiles website or t-zones.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Thank you for such beautiful rom, such a bless for t-mobile users. Everything works great on my S620.

However I am wondering if:

-How can I change the start menu items to list instead of icons. (Recent programs feature is cool!)

-What about the background image for call screen. (Right now it is gray)

THank you very very much oncen again.

Thank you for a pleasant smartphone experience...

[HTC Excalibur] cammochris:
first thing, brilliant rom. second to all they people who cant get it to work, read the instructions slowly, it didnt work on my first go, mainly because i skim read the instructions and missed a bit out.

btw is there an option to disable autohiding of running apps, on mine if i dont touch any button for about 10 / 15 secs all the running programs minimise themselves?? is there a way to disable this??

thanks

I don't really know what I'm doing.

I understand a small bit about this stuff, but I want to make sure.

I have T-Mobile now. Will downloading this void my phone's warranty? Because I have T-Mobile, do I have to download the unlocking thing on the first page?

Most of all, if I follow the steps exactly as they are presented to my on the first page, will my device make it out alive? The last thing I want to do is brick my phone.

Thank you.
[HTC Excalibur] bryceradick:
Problem

I decided to go ahead with the download. I saved the file onto my computer. Then I opened up My Computer on my PC, clicked where it says "Mobile Device". I then tried dragging the file into the Mobile Device. It said there was not enough room and that I should delete some files.

Should I approach this a different way? I really don't have a lot of anything on my Dash because I don't like any slow down.

Anyway, do you have any solutions?

[HTC Excalibur] EngineerMind:
Hey Kavana,

Is there any way I can get the call progress (the screen displayed while connected on a voice call) to have BLACK text and NOT white text?

I want to have a white background (cprogback_land.png) image file, so I need the text to be black, but it seems your ROM is hard wired to set the text WHITE for the call progress.

You already have the text BLACK for the dialing screen, why can't I get it to be BLACK for when I'm talking on the phone?

[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Have you read the noobs guide? It's in sig as Step By Step.
[HTC Excalibur] whydoihavetoregister:
yea i just read it and i like doing the step by step. its easier for me, especially cause ive only done this like once before. anyways, i just got it flashed...one issue came up now. everything worked perfect except for one thing. the phone asked me to set the voice command, and i did, just like in the noobs guide. then i rebooted, and the guide said it would load up the keyboard layout screen that i see in the guide. problem is, it never showed up. its just staying on the home screen.

i said, ok well it is all in english so maybe im ok. so then i tried to install the eT9 files but again it looks different. there is no ".cab" files. am i missing something?

EDIT: sorry, im a douchebag. got it figured out. not very computer savvy : (

Timed Locking of 6.1

Is there a way to have the Kavana implementation of 6.1 automatically lock after a certain time period of non use. I use to have a utility on my Dash WM 6.0 that did this and would like similar functionality on 6.1.

(Also, after 3 attempts I finally got 6.1 installed correctly. It helps to read all the instructions, however, I am one of those types who seldom reads the documentation :D . If you want to save "a lot of time," read and follow the instructions carefully.)

(Putting 6.1 on the Dash gives new life to the Dash. It's like getting a new phone. The functionality is fantastic.)

Again, if any knows how to implement the lock function described above, I would really appreciate knowing how to do it.

Thanks in Advance,

Howard

I've had the software for a little over a month and this issue just started.

I don't think it's something that I downloaded, but when i'm using my phone it has been turning itself off. When I attempt to turn the phone back on, it gives me the WM6 screen and shuts itself off. After a few min of waiting and trying restart and sometimes removing the battery, the software will make it's way to the the home screen.

My phone will turn itself off during calls, using Google Maps and while surfing the web. My battery is at a good level and this also happens when the phone is plugged in.

I did have the mobile:metrics program, but deleted that thinking it may have been the problem trying to access the net while i'm doing other things, but it still continues to turn itself off.

Does anyone else have this problem? or will i need to reinstall the software.

I had the same problem with the WM6.1 ROM. The phone would light up like it was receiving a message. If you were in the messaging app, you'd even see the downloading message icon pop up next to the signal indication. But no message would ever be received or displayed by the phone.

The only thing I found that worked would be to reset all your connection setting with the connection wizard. My Dash would receive MMS for a short time but go back to the usual symptoms after a day or so.

I poked around for a fix but couldn't find one so I went back to WM6.0 so I could get MMS messages.
