This might be an easy fix but I don't know.

Well I was using Kavanas ROM for a long time already but then I got bored so I decided to go to Ricky's

Everything cool so far except for a slight "annoyance"

In Kavanas rom when texting it would show the Time that the text was recieved next to the text message

But now in this one, it only shows the Date.

I went into options and the "Show Date and Time" option is clicked.

This would help if it worked how it used to ;/ Its annoying not knowing when the text was received.

HTC S621 compatible?

Hi all, I have a HTC S621, and I've noticed that this ROM comes from kavana then it has been modified by Rickywatt. I wanted to know if my cell phone will support it. also, does it come in the language Portuguese-BR, since i'm Brazilian. Although I have no problem in keeping the phone's language to English, it would be nice to have it in Portuguese, in case someone else wants to use it.

BTW, do I need to provide any more information about my phone to see if the ROM is compatible?

Thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] s1l3nt:
yes its compatible jus follow da directions completely to upgrade

[HTC Excalibur] EasyTiger6x13:
There's a sticky on the first page of the form called Dash Wiki, read it, theres a way to change the menu background its like in the 3 or 4th box down. But once you change it you can't change it back and if you remove it your start menu wont open.

edit: a couple of reboots and its fine now i think?

Doesn't work with T Mobile Dash

Hi I tried kavana_080408_WWE.exe and when i'm instaling the ROM I hear the sound of a USB disconecting and then reconecting again because of the phone's reset, then a RGB bars appears on the screen of the phone with three diferent legends.

After that there's an error message saying the USB is not connected, but it is.

Am I doing something wrong?

Does this ROM works with T Mobile version?

Thank you very much.
[HTC Excalibur] Grinch843:
Hi, just moved from a HTC 8125 to the dash and thought I would flash this ROM to check it out. Anyway, got a few questions.

#1. I'am currently running Windows 7 RC on my PC, has anyone flashed a DASH while using Win7 or will I have to use an XP system?

#2. I've seen references to a file called "Excalibur USPL- CID BYPASS.zip" do I need to use this when flashing this ROM?

Oh, phone is from tmobile and still locked to them.

Thanks for any info....

Is there a way to change the icons to the news ones

I am looking at Styles and Energy and 3VOULTION ROMS' and i have to admit the icons i like, so how can i change the icons on this ROM to those? Is there way? This ROM totally is the best ROM, that i think i have used thus far, i can only say this, that the stability of this ROM is not matched by any other so far. But because i like to see new things and different things, i would like to update the icons of this ROM.

Ok guys I really need your help.

Problem here

I recently flashed the v23 rom that was made by RickyWatt. It is an amazing rom.

The issue I am having is that I dropped my phone and the silver power button on the side broke the power switch on the internal of the phone. Everytime I want to power on my phone I must open the entire case and fiddle around for almost 20 minutes with the power contacts until I see the phone turn on.

I was wondering if anyone could help me remap the mail key on my keyboard to be the new power button, that I can power on/off the phone with. I am fairly new at flashing phones and I would appreciate a detailed guide. I am aware that I will have to use RegEdit or something similar.

Please help me if you can, Thanks in Advance.:confused:

Battery Display

not sure if its something i did

i have a brand new battery and when the battery is probably at 70 or 50% the light turns amber as if it were being charged when its not

is there something in the HKEY that i can go to, to get this back to the normal setting?

it would be nice to know when my phone is dying and when its actually charging
[HTC Excalibur] taalon927:
Not a bad job, really like it so far, only missing one thing i can not seem to get working when i do it myself. Windows Remote Service...

Anyways just one thing to look at, the thing does not like to stop using applications when you are done. IE Java, Windows Media Player, and so on. They continue to use up mem, so i have the task manager at easy access so i can kill them to insure i do not run out of Mem when using it.

Not sure what is causing it, but ya might want to look into it if you update this release later.

One other thing, i have not been able to figure out, how do you use the SD card as Memory, as in things auto save to it?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
That's just a standard thing with SmartPhone WM seems to think that you are gonna continue to use the program so does not close, you can have celetask hooked to internet key so as to quick close i always install SmartToolKit as right key then becomes a taskmanager and makes it easier.

Tmo Dash - WiFi option missing post WM 6.1 upgrade in comm mgr

I have upgraded my Tmobile dash from WM 6 to Kavana WM6.1

File: RUU_Excalibur_WM61_Kavana_080408_WWE.exe

All the setup was completed and it worked great with all the instructions. However, when I went inside the communication manager, to turn on WIFi, the communication mgr does NOT show the WiFi option at all.

Not sure if I did anything wrong.

Can anyone let me know what would be the fix to get WiFi option in communication manager?

Could not find any solution in earlier threads here. NEED URGENT HELP !!!

Thanks, Yogesh
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
Try a hard reset or do a reflash. Check if WifiInit.ink is in \windows\startup folder.
[HTC Excalibur] yogesh_skr:
Yes I tried hard reset as well but did not work. Also WifiInit is in \Windows\startup.

Communication Manager (HTC ) shows 2 options 1) Phone & 2) Bluetooth

Communication Manager (System) shows 6 buttons, earlier in WM 6 it was showing 8 buttons. Not sure why it is degraded in Kavana WM6.1.

Please help !

you can configure your T-Mobile favs thru T-Mobile with your phones T-Mobile by setting up your contacts thru CHome Configur (need to install it onto your phone)

I have upgraded my wife's Tmobile Dash to 6.1. She doesn't seems to like the windows default home screen with the large application icons on the top without the label.

I think I've narrowed it down to the power management as it shuts down when doing intense data transfers over the air and when I turn it back on, the battery reports a different % available than what was previous (i.e. once it reported 24% available and then after a reboot reported 72%)

Should I go try the regular Kavana release?

save it and apply it as your background.

if you use the connection wizard....you will not receive MMS files unless you call t-mobile to "re-insert" you into their text messaging database. 5 minutes top phone call.

You can also, delete all the settings and reinsert them manually and you wont have to call them.

I have them for the 19.99 plan, i dont use the proxy
