Yes, me too. :(

Is there any solution?
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Based on your post, I tried and true enough I cant too.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
I think the reason why I cannot use the joystick to navigate WMP is because the buttons are mapped wrongly.

Try to press the messaging button (AP2) while WMP is playing, it will rewind the song. That means that the button is mapped wrongly

MMS version?

Any reason for this version of the MMS software? I've been able to get 4.0.40.1 for Tornado of these forums, so I was wondering if there was any specific reason (compatibility, etc) for the older version. I've noticed the default version on a WM5 is 3.0.1.27...

Oh, and could someone let me know if MMS has a separate account, or if they get delivered to the SMS account?

Cheers

Matt
[HTC Tornado] Toad:
I have the same problem! Does anyone have a fix? Possibly using a different version of the camera software? :(
[HTC Tornado] Gomer Pyle:
you can re-map buttons in media player
[HTC Tornado] GnatGoSplat:
The old MMS is just because that's what I had.

I'll be happy to put in a newer version. I think I have 4.x, but it's a little difficult because I have to extract it from another device's ROM.

I'm not sure about the video problems. I'll have to see if I can reproduce it. Actually, I never liked Camera 4.00 on the Tornado. The picture quality is not as good and there's that annoying brightness problem. Camera 2.85 (or whatever it was) worked a lot better despite having an ugly UI. I tried to put in the old camera once, but never could get it to work. Possibly because Tornado WM5's don't dump correctly and I had some missing files.
[HTC Tornado] markanthonypr:
I've read a few times about a FreeCam application posted somewhere on here that's called to be very good and to work great for tornado, but I, myself haven't been able to find it yet.

[HTC Tornado] thecraze:
Great work, gnatgosplat! Thanks for the work and effort. I just found this today, and loaded. Makes me feel like I have a new phone.

I use my SDA to play MP3s a lot, and I noticed the keypad light goes off but the screen won't during a song. Does anyone else have this problem, or is WM6.1?
[HTC Tornado] snakecdboy:
is there any program like teraterm because i'm using vista and it's not working on it.. helppp
[HTC Tornado] babysda:
OH! very nice. THANKS.
[HTC Tornado] BerMM:
Hi All,

First off, thanks everyone for making these upgrades possible.

I loaded this ROM onto my SDA (US) and am having keyboard issues.

The first was with the configuration screen of the latest Funambol plugin. My backspace key would take me back to the previous screen rather than erase the previous character in the text boxes.

I then tried My Mobiler, through which the host PCs arrow, space, and backspace keys worked, but no others.

I chalked all this up to WM 6.1 being so new until I tried using my Stowaway bluetooth keyboard. I hooked it up using the input drivers built into the BT stack, but got the same results as when I was using My Mobiler (only space, backspace, and arrows work). Finally I tried loading the manufacturer driver for the Stowaway, which didn't help, refusing to even recognize the BT stack.

Much as I love the new home screen, I'll probably go back to the NitroGenious 6.0 ROM and give PointUI a try, and hope this bug gets fixed soon.
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Reporting another bug, could not receive files via Bluetooth despite using moblue. Enabled beam, turned off OBEX but still could not receive files.
[HTC Tornado] hizad:
Try this coz it works for me both directions sending and receiving.

1. go to comm manager, turn of beam and make sure bluetooth is off too, then turn on bluetooth first then turn on beam, bluetooth setting make sure visibility is on.

2. go to setting - connections - beam, if there is a check on receive incoming beams uncheck and press done and later check on receive incoming beams.

This has to be done again if you reboot your phone.

selamat mencuba
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
That's not the point lol, it should be able to receive files without much hassle, meaning that this is a bug.

Anyway, I appreciate your feedback
[HTC Tornado] geekvideo.org:
Ok I have the MMS working fine. I feel stupid I did a soft reset and it started working. I do have another issue though. I guess you would call it a bug.

When I turn on my wifi I have to turn it back off and then on again to connect to my router or any of the routers around me. Not really that big of a deal just a pain to have to do it twice.
[HTC Tornado] Dhrijeev:

Add Items To Sliding Panel Menu

This is a

trial

package to proof to myself that the Sliding Panel Homescreen can be modified.

I managed to add additional items to the Settings pane; 8 items now. (I am working to add additional pane to the homescreen too.) However, please be cautious because this is basically modifying the registry. If you intend to try this,

PLEASE PLEASE

backup your registry AND data; just in case.

Attached are two registry files. Import them BOTH to your registry. I used Smartione (please google if you intend to use this registry editor) on the PC to export these files. You may need to change the file header for your registry editor to be able to read them.

Anyone working on this same project?

Thank you

PS This is an amateur job so any advice is very much appreciated.
[HTC Tornado] kingbing:
Not that I've used it, nor that I know what the difference is between this and earlier versions, but there's a cab for 4.40.1 for Tornado here.

According to this post, it comes from the extras archive on Karhoe's site.

Is it possible to have a windows mobile 6.1 PROFESSIONAL release? This thing is possible to HtC stratrek ( view topic in Startrek room)...I believe that is fantastic thing, windows mobile Profession on a smartphone!

I hope in a rapid answer...REGARDS!
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Well, Professional is for PDA, Standard is for Smartphone.

Ok, my bad, they manage to port it over. But I believe the main concern is to make this version of WM6.1 stable first

Video Recording via camera hangs my phone. Has anyone similar problems?
[HTC Tornado] darkwolf035:
Since installing this ROM, my keypad backlight is also not working. I have a cingular 2125 (htc tornado). It's more of a minor annoyance than a major issue for me.

Other than that, this ROM is great.. keep up the good work.
[HTC Tornado] geekvideo.org:
Yep I just tried it for the first time, it starts up the colored wheel pops up and it is freezes.. this is the first time I have tried it since I put 6.1 on here.
[HTC Tornado] rainstorm:
I fixed it on my 2125 by turning off the light sensor under power management. For some reason the light sensor is not working for me on this rom. The backlighting works on mine if you turn off the light sensor. The downside is that it work all the time though, draining power.
[HTC Tornado] babysda:
Me too. How to fix it?:confused:

this ROM has allot of bugs i still reamain at Nitro`s sp1 wm 6 platinum edition...But look at my thread and see for your self http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=377845
[HTC Tornado] Pumpiron579:
Thats funny, I had problems with Nitro's Platinum Rom.

This rom has been almost bug free for me. I am using this as my main phone now for 2 weeks. battery usage is excellent, Push mail and Microsofts Live Messenger all work. I love the CHome. Thanks to revanmj for his addition to chome for messenger. Have not had to soft reset nor any hard resets. I have not run into any problems. Bluetooth hooks up to my headset and cars handsfree work without any problems.

I bought the Microsofts Voice command 6.1 for smartphones, works just like it should. Camera works fine for me, no complaints about the pictures I take and send them MMS, threaded SMS work. I use both all the time.

This Rom has been near perfect for me. Here are the two main issues.

Problems) Camera Video not working. Freezes when trying to record.

Problem) Can send and sync via Bluetooth with PC, cannot recieve Files Via Bluetooth

Problem Fixed) Can recieve Files Via Bluetooth. Went to Connection/Beam, and clicked on Receive incomming Beams. Works fine:)
[HTC Tornado] sandervanzijl:
i have to agree with pumpiron.

this rom is great.

a good rom without all those extra apps you do not need anyway.

problems:

when playing mp3 in the sliding panel mode the lcd stays on.

video not working.

i would like to have text messages first in CHome.

I ve been trying to play with CHome_240x320.cpr, but i cannot get it to replace the one on the phone. every time i copy it back, it says 'No Permission' or something along those lines.

yes, i changed the homescreen to Windows Simple and even rebooted before trying to overwrite.

any suggestions?

Stuck on BootLoader after upgrade complete..

Hello,

After I upgrade my i-Mate SP5, from previous Nitro's WM6 to this version, it completes the upgrade but power up shows Bootloader after the i-Mate startup logo.

Need help, thanks...
[HTC Tornado] GnatGoSplat:
That means the ROM didn't flash and you have to try again. Make sure your phone is CID unlocked.
[HTC Tornado] guliboy123:
Thanks for your reply,

As I said I previously am using Nitro's WM6 ROM, my phone fully CID unlocked. I tried the procedure 3 times and same result. It says ROM update completed successfully, but the tricolor on my phone comes up. I have flashed to Nitro;s version for now and working fine, but really would like to get your ROM 6.1, I really appreciate your help. Thanks
[HTC Tornado] markanthonypr:
make sure your com or cam buttons are not depressed and unplug usb cable. then restart phone. Good Luck.

@Gnat... You are good salesmen. You stand behind your product! Very nice of you mate.
[HTC Tornado] phynesse:
yea, it worked with activesync under XP. Vista just wouldnt let me overwrite it.

Also, you have to reboot the phone for it to recognize new fonts.

i went with decoder font, like on my old homescreens.

thanks for the tip.
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Hey, thats nice and I'm glad you managed to do it and liked it. Activate Wi-Fi and see if it is placed correctly on the clock's pane. I have also added date/day there and moved it around abit. I also managed to add a Favorites pane. Now I'm trying to add ElecontWeather either to the clock's pane of a new pane for the weather. Tried so many variations editing the Registry but to no avail.

Will post a pic when I have the time.

New update, see first post for updated download link.

- Updated to 5.2.19202 (from Moto Q8 ROM 1.07.24R).

- Fixed can't record video problem by replacing HTCCamera1.dll.

- Replaced HTCCSP.dll Bluetooth file with older version in hopes of fixing Bluetooth issues - NOT TESTED.

I've been short on time so those are the only changes, sorry!

Thanks for the 0.4b update, GnatGoSplat!

0.4b mirror (via MediaFire):

http://www.mediafire.com/?syyc4tywjdn
[HTC Tornado] :
Thanks for this great release, love it!

Is it possible to post thr HTCCamera1.dll as a single file? That woulb be great!

Thanks a lot!
[HTC Tornado] GnatGoSplat:
Unfortunately, even with security turned off, I was unable to replace HTCCamera1.dll by copying it over the old. It would tell me I don't have sufficient permissions.

I will see if it's possible to overwrite existing files with a .cab. That might get around the security issue.
[HTC Tornado] :
I guess that's because the dll is marked as a system file. You have to change the attributeof the dll. If you could post that file i would give it a try.

BTW: does anybody know in which file the icons are stored, which are referenced from within the registry by numbers like 2201, 2203 and so on(HKLM\security\CHome\... and HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\...)?
[HTC Tornado] :
Please forget my last post, it sure has nothing to do with the file attribute. But you could post the file anyway ;)

This rom works perfect for me, it has everything I need on my Qtek 8310: a new smart GUI, which makes the phone a real "smart"phone, working wifi, bluetooth, threated SMS, MMS, 2 alarms, copy'n'paste and so on :D

Only thing I miss is the video camera, as I use the phone as a webcam ...

Thanks go to GnatGoSplat (funny Name btw :) ) for his efforts (and of course to all the others who build and support these roms) :)

Great work!

Well done! Excellent ROM. Video fix has worked a treat. I've found sometimes when you first execute the camera in either photo mode or video mode, the screen is quite dark, but if you use the 'Reset brightness' menu option, all is good!

Keep up the great work :D

Thanks in advance!

Have you checked in ActiveSync the File>Connection Settings and tick Allow USB Connections?
[HTC Tornado] xatzis5000:
Yes.Allow USB connections is checked!I dont know what to do...

Im going to try to a friends PC with vista.(I forgot to mention i have vista too)

If it works then i have a problem with the USB's maybe?
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Try switch off/on both pc and device. Should everything else fails, try reflash your phone
[HTC Tornado] sniali:
Try the following

Try to start your phone in bootloading mode then connect it to your pc( try to find apc with Xp platform as to my knowledge there is under vista it is not easy to connect via activesync)

after connecting run the flashing file it may help.

to start your phone in bootloading mode (tornado) switch it off then press and hold the 2 keys the camera and wifi keys located on the left and right sides of the phone while turning the phone on

keep pressing the 2 keys until you see the 3 colors screen (red green blue )

hope that will help

good luck

revanmj, I just tried sending and receiveng via Bluetooth from a paired phone and my PC and it works fine.

In comm manager settings/Bluetooth/menu/Turn on bluetooth/turn on Visablity

Then I paired my Headset, PC, and 2 other Phones.

Then I went back into settings Connections/ Beam and clicked on Recieve incomming Beams....Takes a few15 seconds or so to respond.

Then I sent a picture from my PC to my phone, sent it back, same with my phones I had paired.

Full Phone Backup before installing new ROM

Sigh, I can't get this darn SpriteBackup to restore a made backup. I want to go back to testing this ROM, but need to backup what I got so far. Sprite Backup confirms that backup was done OK, but it can never restore. Always gives me an error restoring system settings. Anyone has an advice or better ways to backup?
[HTC Tornado] MicMeo:
Backup:

1. Contacts and Call History

Using Resco Explorer, copy PIM.VOL file from root directory of your device to Storage card.

2. SMS

Using SMSBackup (in attachment below), perform a backup to your Storage Card.

3. Your own T9 custom words

Copy T9AW.CDB and T9AW.UDB from [Your Device\Application Data] to your Storage Card

Restore:

1. Contacts and Call history

After flashing a new rom, using the default File Explorer browse to the Root directory of your device. Rename filename PIM to whatever you want then copy the old PIM.VOL which is being store on your storage card to the root directory. Restart your phone and you'll have all your contacts and call history restored.

2. SMS

Using SMSBackup and perform a SMS restoring.

3. T9 Custom Words

Install T9English.cab normaly. Before restarting your phone, copy back 2 files T9AW.* to \Application Data
[HTC Tornado] markanthonypr:
Thanks MicMeo. Now that you've gone thru the trouble of explaining me all the above, one more question; Would it be posible to "apend" 2 PIM.VOL files. For whatever paranoid reason, I love to keep call history. Sometimes I switch phones and I have history on one and on the other. As far as contact, I'm not very concern, as Outlook automatically puts them back.

Now, while this is a great way to backup that data, I was looking for a way to backup and restore whole phone, so if I want to go back to previous ROM it was a matter of Restore and I'm back n running. What I had tried with Sprite Backup was, I had made a backup of phone, then flashed another ROM and I didn't like it, so I flashed again the previouse ROM i had, and tried doing a restore, but It wouldn't do so. Going from there, I figured I should try and see if the restore is at all posible, and did a new Backup , and tried restoring it an hour later, and also failed with same error "Failed restoring the system settings".

Finally, I might just answer myself(before anyone else says it) LOL, Contact Sprite for issues with their software Mark!! Ok LOL

Thanks for any advice/help :)

Hi,

I am happy to be running on WM6.1 with the new UI. However, I am experiencing some glitches...

1) Smartphone doesnt connect to my PC to sync (x64 Vista, Window Mobile Remote adapter is detected) until the "Enable advanced network functionality" is unchecked

2) How do I reset the Voicemail number that I entered incorrectly?

3) Where can I enable back the symbols menu when I hold the # key?

Other than that, it appears most of the stuff works fine.

You cannot leave "recieve incomming beams" on and use your Bluetooth. It seems to confuse your Bluetooth settings.
