Has anyone else had a problem receiving texts after installing the threaded SMS app (700wx/Sprint).

Seemed to be working fine for the first couple hours then I stopped receiving texts from a couple of senders. Messages were sent from their phone and not received.

WinMo Version 5.0 / Sprint Treo SW v. 1.15
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fleiscpj:
No, I have had zero problems with SMS using version 1.2. However, I am using the Verizon build.

I do have an issue with IEmo6. When scrolling around a web page sometimes the screen does not refresh and you cannot see anything. This I can live with for the ability to have 6.1. I could also downgrade the browser if needed.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Kyusaku:
This thread is about NightRaven's WinMo 6.1 ROM builds, he didn't develop the Palm Threaded SMS app. You should be looking elsewhere for support on that program.

I sometimes alternate between scrolling with the direction pad and with finger strokes to get the page to display correctly. This is probably an issue with the ROM itself and not something NightRaven can fix.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NightRaven:
The screen refresh issue is because the 700wx processor is really too slow for rendering. That's why Microsoft only recommends that browser for devices with a 500Mhz or faster processor.

1.3 ROM Incoming call issue

Has anyone had problems with incoming calls? The phone keeps ringing for a while before connecting with the 1.3 ROM. This was not an issue with 1.1. I am thinking of switching back to make sure that it is not a phone issue.

Can I use sprite backup for backup and restore the apps between roms, let's say I want to switch back to 1.1, would I be able to do that?

Thanks,

Anand

Bluetooth DUN to another PPC not working

Getting internet from another ppc isn't working with this rom (or with the other 8 roms for 700wx ive tried). I can't connect to the pc's dialup either. I am NOT trying to tether to the wx -- I am trying to do the opposite -- i am trying to use my other ppc (a q9h) as the internet source and get internet onto this 700wx by bluetoothing into the q9h. It's not working? Anyone have any ideas or have any luck getting internet onto this rom using bluetooth? Now, I can get internet via bluetooth activesync, but getting internet from the q9h while on the road is what i need, since there are so many apps for wm6pro that my q9h can't do (like that wonderful new opera browser!). Any ideas anyone?

Thanks for Sprint WM6.1 ROM

NightRaven - many thanks for your work, image worked great to upgrade from WM5.

I have been hating my Treo 700wx more and more running WM5. Before ditching it I decided to see whether there was an upgrade to 6 - not really expecting much from the new OS. However, it seems more stable (was rebooting at least once per day) and a little faster than before - don't get delayed starts from keyboard lock anymore either. Of course this might be Windows registry rot - it might be better for having simply had everything wiped and started over ... anyway, thanks for you efforts, much appreciated.

Sprint 700wx -1.3 Build 20931 -activesynch 0x85010013 error

Thanks to everyone for the hard work on this ROM. I was running an older version of Ebagg's rom then upgraded to 1.3 Build 20931. When I try to synch with Exchange 2007, I get the error. I have tried multiple revisons of the ROM and get the same issue.

If I roll back to the stock WM5 Sprint ROM, zero issues. I didnt back up / or have a copy / rev of the Ebagg ROM I was running, but it was working.

Has anyone seen this issue on this ROM? I see this error on other custom roms for other phones. Hoping there is a simple fix cause I really love the work that has been done.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My Sprint 700wx will still not recognize the ROM file on the SD card. It has been formatted FAT32 and the ROM file was copied directly on there - no other files are on there. It searches for 5 seconds or so before saying no ROM images were found on SD card. I am following the directions exactly - is there anything else I should check?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NightRaven:
Try a different SD card. Make sure it's not an SDHC card. Even though they are supported in my 6.1 roms, they are not supported for flashing. You could also try to redownload the rom, to ensure that it is not corrupt.

Sprint Software Version 1.13 but want to upgrade to 1.15

I installed nightravens 1.12 rom and was able to tether with internet connection sharing that is explained in the 800w forum at PPCGeeks. Heres the link: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=33477 I didnt have to make the registry change. All I did was Start -> Programs -> Internet sharing -> Connect. The connection is more stable with both usb and bluetooth and never drops a connection. I have software version 1.13 and vista 64.

I was wondering if anyone has tried this with software version 1.15 via usb since the original method of setting up a dialup connection doesnt work anymore with 1.15. My connection is twice as fast when i use the usb cable. I'd hate to be the dummy that updates after knowing there is known issues but i'd really like to update.

Can someone who has already updated both the software to version 1.15 and to wm6.1 try this method of tethering and let me know if the usb connection still works? If possible post your speeds from speedtest.net for usb and bluetooth.

My currently speeds at speedtest.net (usb is dl:1000-1200 ul:80-100) (bluetooth dl:250 ul:60-80). When i use slingplayer from laptop i get 500 kbs from usb and 200-250 on bluetooth. i dont have the best signal at my house. i only have 1 bar.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dcmidnight:
Thanks NR, redownloading it seemed to work. Initially 6.1 install went fine.

I noticed in setting up my email accounts - gmail was fine and connected fine. In the Yahoo setup it only allows for IMAP setup - not POP3. The option box appears grayed out.

IE works fine, sending and receiving Gmail works fine.

Initially had some texting issues but after a hard reset it appears OK. Unfortunately I ran into this when installing the SMS app on top of WM5, worked fine for a few hours then conked out. Hoping that doesnt happen here.

Im looking for someone to try internet sharing with usb on version 1.15. Im still on 1.13 and would really like to update.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stimey:
I am using 1.15, NightRavens on page 1 of this. One note when I installed the "Palm threaded sms" it caused my notifications to lock up so I had to reinstall.

I will try internet sharing in a while and update you.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stimey:
Thanks NightRaven, The Rom works excellent. Do you know if the internet sharing is detectable by Sprint? Also is there a better browser then IE? That anyone knows about. I preferred the old IE and have tried Iris. I use Skyfire a bit but for just reading news etc the old IE was best for one had usage. The new IE seems slower and you have to use the screen too much to navigate. Iris locks up and I have heard that Opera Mobile is a resource hog.

I am a real big fan of both of the Operas (mini and mobile). Opera mini is the one i currently use and i love it. There is a forum on this site that has GC Java with opera mini and Gmail's java app.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=402980

I think it is the best one to use. It is very fast. Opera Mobile is also a good one. It is more like a desktop browser but as such it is kinda slow. Both, however, are excellent browsers. The choice is obviously yours as to which one to use.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stimey:
Thanks I will try that. I installed Mini last night but it keeps locking up with the Jbed java version I am using. I will say it is extremely fast and that is what I want for simple reading and looking up phone info etc on the fly. This PIE just sucks. It's slow, and navigation is a pita.

Ok one more problem. When I installed the Opera.cab the cab attempted to make Opera the default browser.

Hey all. Any one knows how to unbrik a Treo 700W? I installed Verizon WM6.1. Every thing was fine but I could not open any app because there was not enough program memory. There was only 1.8 mb left so I tried to install WM6.0. Every thing went fine as far as flashing it but when the device tried to reboot never came back on. It is dead no power, nothing. Yes the battery is fully charged. So, is there any way to bring it back to life? Thanks. :(

Multiple message selection mode is available from the "Menu" key on the bottom right.

My Issues:

2. Sometimes I get an indication that the SMS failed to send but in reality it was sent. Is there a timeout we can increase? I never had failed SMS messages in the non-treo threaded SMS version.

A second peculiarity I've noticed with the Sprint 6.1 rom is that the 5-way navigation/selection does not work in IE.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dcmidnight:
But it appears you have to enable this option each and every time you want to use it? As opposed to being able to scroll/select what you want automatically
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NightRaven:
1.) There are settings to change this earlier in the thread somewhere. I just don't remmeber what they are off the top of my head.

2.)I'm not sure why this happens. I will look for a timeout setting.

As for the multi-select in outlook, Microsoft removed this, because they added it as a menu option. In their minds it is a "feature enhancement". Sometimes they are retarded...

i think the version i use is 1.24. it will make opera the default browser by default but it is easy to change back to IE by going to programs -> opera mini -> setup. its pretty straight forward in there on how to change it back. version 1.22 is very stable and i'm pretty sure it doesn't try to make opera the default browser.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stimey:
Are you on a 700wx using 1.3 6.1? I installed that opera cab and it locked up constantly. I installed another cab using a different version of Java and it is working great with that one exception. I remember the menu that you spoke off; however, it is not in the cab that I finally installed. I am very close to getting this phone perfect. And now I have a solution that I can live with at least. When i click on a link I have a pop up that asks me which browser to open with. Only problem is if I select mini it won't open. So at this point I have to open in PIE. But I disabled HTML as NightRaven suggested and PIE is liveable now.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stimey:
If you do as NightRaven suggested you will get the 5-way back and it will speed up on the 700WX. Basically it is exactly what you had. I did this and like it much better. Faster and easier to navigate with one hand.

Do this below:

HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer\MSHTML=0

End task Internet Explorer and restart it.

Today 11:00 AM [/QUOTE]

They don't have a CAB file on the Opera website only JAR so you have to install a JAVA client. There are a few CABs in other posts that include this in an all in one which I suggest. The one I posted works great with my 700wx. If you install Java seperate then you have to start the Java client and then the Opera or create your own shortcut. I can tell you that in my opinion the Opera Mini smokes anything out there. The only knock is no Flash, but it is 10X faster than Skyfire so I only use that if I need to view flash.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stimey:
I am assuming you have tried to re-flash? (keep battery out for a few min, hold vol up and re-insert) If that is not working then it maybe something else just by coincidence. Expensive brick you have if that is the case. Take to sprint store and dont tell them what you did.

Has anyone tried a changing the PagePool to 0 (dynamic). I ran into an issue yesterday with my CIO. I upgraded him to my 1.3 rom, but he runs out of program memory if he is syncing his contacts through exchange activesync. He has 1170 contacts, and a lot of them have pictures!!!. The loss of 6MB program memory is causing the issue. I would like to hold off on reloading my rom until I get 6.5 working. If someone has the time and patience to test a dynamic pagepool, that would be awesome.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Westronics:
I'll try it. Updating Rom now... we'll see how it goes.

For curiosity's sake, I did try it at 12MB, and IEM performed better, but overall it was not such a good idea. That's just too big a hit on available memory.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NightRaven:
I flashed mine with 0 as the pagepool. Performance wise it seems good. It's using a lot of program memory, but it does seem to adjust. I'll have to keep playing with it.

Dynamic Pagepool

Initial report with a Dynamic PagePool...

After the initial flash plus restoring everything (Sprite Backup) I show 13.60MB free, whereas it was about 20 MB free with a 12MB page pool and about 24 MB free with an 8MB Page Pool.

I do not know yet how the "Dynamic" part of this will work as far as giving up PagePool for programs with a greater memory requirement.

Initial performance seems fantastic.

UPDATE: After running AEButtonPlus for a bit to set one of my hardware buttons, I have almost 23MB of Program Memory available, so it seems to indeed be dynamically allocating program memory.

I'll take suggestions for a good way to test the "Dynamic" memory allocation.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Westronics:
I tried the same and could not get it to run out of memory. It seems to automatically close some apps to save memory (which is the standard memory management for 6.1, right?).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NightRaven:
Hmm... It didn't do that for me.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Westronics:
I finally got it to run out of memory by trying to run a YouTube video. It seems one large task might run it out of memory whereas multiple smaller task won't, at least from what I've seen.

These have hardly been comprehensive tests, but I think the only way to know for sure of your CIO's device will work properly is to run an identical test of sync'ing many picture contacts. Depending upon how it handles dynamic PagePool memory allocation for this kind of sync, I suppose it might or might not work.

My guess is it will choke on the large amount of memory required for the task and not work, but you never know...

I hope this was helpful.

1. Format SD Card as FAT32.

2. Copy Rom image (NapaBoth.nb0) to SD card.

3. Remove Battery from phone, and unplug the power cord.

4. Reinsert battery while holding the up volume button on the side of the phone.
